Estee Lauder Perfectly Clean Splash Away Foaming Cleanser


Long name huh!.

Claims:

Deliciously refreshing foam gently yet thoroughly cleans and rebalances skin.Splashes away with no soapy film, no trace of impurities.

BALANCE FOR NORMAL/COMBINATION SKIN
-Lightly hydrates and conditions as it cleanses.
-Gently manages oily zones while soothing dry areas.
-Leaves skin feeling renewed, comfortable, healthy.

CONDITIONING EXTRACTS
-White Water Lily -
cant find its beauty attributes web says it used as sedative and
aphrodisiac/anaphrodisiac
-Senega - cant find beauty uses too,. web says it for diuretic and expectorant
-Barberry - edible, and rich in vitamin C (at last! something that's in beauty dictionary)


Verdict:

Another so-so cleanser for me. Smell reminds me of Ponds only it doesn't give me bumps, redness and pimps (still can't use Ponds, dunno why). Well I've been using it before (prior quiting pills) during the phase when my skin was on dry side so I didn't really appreciate it since this is for normal to combination skin (on the oily side), it leaves my skin feeling a little tight (but fragrant!). It does leave skin matte and squiky clean though.

And with those two ingredient with unknown beauty value I dont think I will purchase this cleaser unless someone will give me its beauty essence.

Estee lauder Advance Night Repair (ANR)

My quest for a good eyecream begun with Estee Lauder Advance night repair.




CLAIM:

ALL NIGHT, ALL DAYAdvanced Night Repair Eye Recovery Complex works around the clock to keep your eyes looking their best.By Night: Recovery.
· Skin's natural renewal process is boosted to help repair the visible signs of aging.
· Daily irritation is soothed.
· A rich reserve of anti-oxidants and lipids is built to help replenish skin's natural protectants.
By Day: Prevention.
· Neutralizes up to 90% of environmentally-generated free radicals before they can damage skin's appearance.
· Studies show it is this environmental damage—not time—that can cause 80% of the visible signs of aging.
· Boosts and maintains skin's natural production of collagen to help smooth existing lines while helping prevent the appearance of new ones.
· Helps eye makeup glide on.
Night and Day: Hydration.
· Long-proven hyaluronic acid—nature's "moisture magnet"—delivers advanced levels of hydration.



VERDICT:

It comes with its own round tip dipper very nice of it coz I think putting it in pump will not let you control the amount it will dispense hence the waste of product. Comes in a jar that’s too cute to look at…


Upon application eye area feels velvety smooth. it doesn’t feel sticky. My tired looking eye area seems hydrated and refreshed. With months of usage dark undereye was minimized, its not totally gone but it lightened significantly. It made my hollowed eye plumped. A little is needed when applying otherwise I get puffy eyes (or eyebags).

It lacks moisture for me though. My concealer and tends to cake but is a very good base for eyeshadow since it leaves velvety smooth feeling. Too early to judge on its anti-wrinkle property but I’ve seen changes but it stopped, not that its not that potent but rather due to my continuous medication for allergy (I’m on zryrtec now and steroid which drastically dries out skin, hair.. ) Good start though, Looks promising. I will continue to observe and see if im purchasing another.. that is if will not be tempted with shishiedo bioperformance or La mer eye concentrate..

Rate: 4/5
