Yoohoo! Mr. Postman...

Look what was waiting for me when I got home yesterday evening (okay okay... night... late night). I was starting to think it got lost in the mail due to all the public holidays we were having.
My Kevin Beautymaker Hydrating lotion and Eye serum! Lovely *dances around the room* I have been waiting for about a week plus for these. The hydrating lotion is to reply my Dr.Jart+ Multi Action Essence Lotion which is on it's last legs at the moment and the hydrating eye serum is to replace my kanebo sensai eye contour balm which I finished a little while ago but have yet to find a suitable replacement. Hopefully this one is the right choice. The seller threw in a couple of masks as freebies. I like her service. I will definitely order again.


I have to admit something. I tested this right away last night. The eye serum is a clear gel while the lotion is a milky... lotion! Both absorb really well into the skin with little or no residue left behind. Definitely no stickiness whatsoever. Because of the absorbency rate you might be tempted to slap on more of the lotion. I would suggest you put on another cream instead because to lotion's hydrating properties make it a good base for other nice skincare to go on. Both products contain fragrance; a light watered down rose syrup smell. It's not cloying like the occasional Anna Sui product an not cheap like a drugstore brand. I get the feeling that it's more of an aromatheraputic addition. You know, just to relax you. As they say, happy people have happy skin.

Will go thru them more and give you guys an update in a couple of weeks.

Jamilla -
A dirt cheap one too! Only cost me RM93.50 plus postage. That's about...13 pounds? give a take a couple of pence.

Yumeko -
Will do ^_^ So far it's pretty good especially in the humid, rainy, super hot weather.

Ning -
Thank you! Will do one in a couple of weeks when I've tested them fully XD Putting them through their paces now (with makeup, without makeup, day, night, sun, aircond, etc)

Yup, reviews please! Where did you buy em from?

En said...

Very nice package! ;) Do you prefer Beautymaker to Dr. Jarts? Price-wise, are they pretty comparable?

Blair -
I got them for LYN ^__^ Search for the seller called beauty_zone33. She's got the best prices and she can order anything as long as it's on payeasy.

Very light and travel-friendly packaging! At this moment I can't really decide which is better. They have just started selling Dr. Jart in their own stores here(I saw the opening of one last week in a local department store) in Malaysia so it's more easily accessible compared to Beautymaker. Beautymaker is half the price of Dr. Jart even with shipping. Take for example the lotions as both provide similar functions and come in 50ml bottles. Dr.Jart about RM120 with shipping and Beautymaker is RM52 with shipping.

Bijin Blair said...

Does beauty_zone33's price fluctuate?

Btw, have you tried Silkygirl's e/s?

saintangelius said...

Blair -
So far I haven't seem the prices change at all. But that's because the exchange rate to taiwan has never really differed much. Her prices are about RM5-10 higher than what you might see on taiwanese websites as she already factored in the shipping cost to Malaysia. Good thing... I hate the extra counting part. If you have more than 3 items I think you can discuss to get a discount.
I didn't find any Silkygirl colour combos that I liked ^^;; Found them a bit too highschool XD I generally gravitate towards those that produce a more gothic-ish, lolita-esque, punkrock-ette look. Black Eyeliner is my absolute favourite makeup item ^___^ That and fairer complexion. My mum nick-named it the 'pasty white vampire complexion'. Sighs...

Let us know how you like those BM things :) I haven't yet to tried them :) but love to read some more reviews about it

Bijin Blair said...

OMG!!! How much do they cost? Are they launching anywhere else? I seldom go to 1U :(

Laura L said...

the etude house makeup eye and lip remover is 100ml, Rm22.90
so far, i think it is really good because it doesnt irritate my eyes at all, is gentle yet able to remove stubborn mascara and eye makeup
