Taking a Break

Hey Dearies,

Am taking a break from blogging till 11 March 2012. Would be back then. In the meantime, if you have any requests for selected products to be reviewed, please drop me an email at limweiyan@gmail.com and have FUN in the meantime!

Been so swamped at work.... plus I got a new series of products to test out, so need some time for testing to let you know if they work. Please miss me ok?? :)

XoXo,

Bio Oil

Hey Beautiful...

As promised, today there will be 3 different posts, so stay tuned, this is the first one, featuring BIO OIL. I know I am late, apologies as I was real busy with work and then prepping for Vday's special meal! Hope your Valentine's day went well.

Bio Oil is something I decided to explore after they have launched it for quite a while as I am not a super early adopter, esp if the product is an unknown or new brand in the market.

Some of the Good Stuff said to be inside:

Calendula Officinalis Flower Extract (Calendula Oil)
Lavandula Angustifolia Oil (Lavender Oil)
Rosmarinus Officinalis Leaf Oil (Rosemary Oil)
Anthemis Nobilis Flower Oil (Chamomile Oil)

Retinyl Palmitate (Vitamin A)
Tocopheryl Acetate (Vitamin E)

Mineral Oil (Paraffinum Liquidum) - I DISAGREE THAT THIS IS GOOD
Triisononanoin
Cetearyl Ethylhexanoate
Isopropyl Myristate
Glycine Soja Oil
Helianthus Annuus Seed Oil
BHT
Bisabolol

Bio‑Oil is a specialist skincare oil that helps improve the appearance of scars, stretch marks and uneven skin tone. It is also effective for aging and dehydrated skin. Bio‑Oil has won 80 skincare awards and has become the No.1 selling scar and stretch mark product in 11 countries since its global launch in 2002.

The Bio‑Oil formulation is a combination of plant extracts and vitamins suspended in an oil base. It contains the breakthrough ingredient PurCellin Oil™, which changes the formulation’s overall consistency, making it light and non-greasy. This ensures that the goodness contained in the vitamins and plant extracts is easily absorbed.

Bio‑Oil has undergone safety assessments in accordance with the Regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council on Cosmetic Products. The toxicological profile, chemical structure, level of inclusion and total level of daily exposure of each ingredient used has been assessed and deemed safe for use (including for use by pregnant women).

Bio‑Oil is a member of Beauty Without Cruelty International.

What  I love about this oil

is how smooth my skin feels after applying

it will be absorbed into your skin

after a decent 3 to 4 mins

I had a reddish mark on the bottom of my left eye and

after using this

it lighten considerably after 3 weeks

of day and night application.

I hated it at first though.

Cos, its oil

but when I went Korea

and then back...

I realized it is a God-sent

as it can be used on the ENTIRE body

so, you not bring so many bottles of skincare

while travelling.

And this size, allows you to hand carry it in.

Ease of Use: Just 2 drops for the entire face,more for your body

Rating: 3/5

Would I Buy it again: Will try other brands (as it is in my nature)

On a lil' break....
