Remember I said I went on a drugstore haul, so Mentholatum Acnes Medicated Point Clear is part of the haul. I've tried some mentholatum products, they doesn't seem to work on my skin. Decided to give this a try because I couldn't find the pimple cream that I always used. My sister also said that she have seen this product in quite a few japanese magazines.

Ingredients~~

This acne medicated product (as stated from the packaging) is for pimple care + whitening + pore refining. It comes in a roll-on design which is great because I don't need to use my germy hand to touch my pimples when applying it (urggg I swear you wouldn't one to add more germy buddies on your pimples and let them party there).


 This pimple medicated product is not rlly a cream. When I rolled on my skin a very watery liquid comes out. The liquid is transparent too which means you can use it while you're out without having white precipitate on your skin. My pimples starts to dry out a little (not completely) on my third consecutive day of usage. There is no visible change in my blemishes on the third day too. Maybe it needs more time to see visible change. I will rate this product 3.5/5. I find it effective but not strong enough. It takes too long to lighten blemishes and cure pimples. It is also a little pricey for its quality. I paid SGD 9.90 and I have used a better product which is much cheaper. I will review that product in the future *pinky promise*. Okay toodles for now :)

I just received  a gift from my friend when she visited korea. She bought me nature republic lipstick and also a sun block. But firstly, I will review the lipstick that she bought me. I was hoping that the liptick will be in the shade of very light pink unfortunately it is not. Nonetheless, I am still okay with this shade of liptick and thankful of the gift.
The lipstick that she bought me is in the shade of pink. I couldn't find much information online at nature republic website on the product information. However, I managed to dig out on the available shades of pink for the liptick. But I am not sure if the following in the complete list of available colors for the line. The color code of the lipstick I received from my friend is OR301!

Manage to dig out something from gmarket

Here are some pictures of the product and the packaging.

Brand new!

 After trying it out for once, I feel that it really look nice on my skin tone and I love the colour. Guess what! It is close to the color I am looking for! XD Yeap! Though I wanted it to be slightly lighter. Let me show you the picture!

Pardon for my big nose HAHA!

The lipstick is quite moisturizing but its not enough for those who have dry lips. So I highly recommend that you guys use a moisturizing treatment lip balm or etc before using the liptick. This is  ensure that the lipstick and glide smoothly on your lips. Hence, giving you a new pretty lips. The lipstick also smell abit like cherry. I'll rate it 4/5 as I really like the colour!

 Received this hand lotion as a gift from a friend who went Korea. It comes in a 60ml tube which is very convenient to carry around. Here are some pictures.

Nature Republic Olive Moisturizing Hand Lotion

Ingredients

Here's the instruction straight from the back-side of the tube: "After washing hands or when they feel dry, apply an appropriate amount to hands and massage to enhance absorption". When i squeezed out the lotion on my hand, I realized that the lotion is less viscous(thick) compared to those typical lotions which I kind of like and it has subtle smell of olives which stays on you for quite some time (provided the weather is not too humid). My hands did not feel oily after application but a little moist. The amount shown on the picture is enough to cover my both hands. Do take note my hands aren't very dry. I only need hand cream after being in an air-conditioned environment for few hours. So the amount you need might vary from mine.

After

Overall, I find this product quite okay. I guess it does its job even though I feel that there might me a lot of better hand lotion out there in the market. I'll give 3.5 out of 5.
