I guess many of us living in this warm country always facing dry lips issues. I seldom apply lipstick because it would make my dry and chapped lips more obvious and ugly.
That said, lip balm is always my best companion. I especially like scented balm because it made me happy when applying them.
Recently I was given a Strawberry Lip Smacker Lip Balm to review from Yuberactive.
Strawberry Lip Smacker Lip Balm has an eye catching packaging in red. Strawberry Lip Smacker Lip Balm is made of natural oils such as castor oil, wheat germ oil, sesame seed oil, beewax, and candelilla wax.
I smell mild strawberry once I open it, and it is easy to glide on my dry lips. It made my lips smooth and glossy after one application however reapply is needed after one to two hours. For the price of RM 9.90 to RM 26.90(various flavors), I think Lip Smacker Lip Balm is worth the investment.
Strawberry Lip Smacker Lip Balm is made in U.S.A. net weight 4 g.
Lip Smacker Lip Balm could be keep up to 24 months after open.
You could get it from Guardian Pharmacy, Parkson, Sa Sa, and Watson's Personal Care Store.

A Healthy Face Refines True Beauty: LUMINE® Japan unveiled its 3D Skin Perfection Facial Dimensional Sculpting Technology and beauty range
In delectable style, LUMINE® Japan invited skin experts, guests and members of the media to Zang Toi Café few weeks ago. The crowded mall outside did nothing to dampen the zeal of over 60 guests in getting a closer look at treatments that will rejuvenate and render skin looking years healthier and younger.
With the fashion designer’s eatery serving as a picturesque backdrop, LUMINE® Japan, noted for its pioneering extraction of Salmon caviar during the Meiji Era more than 100 years ago when Ryoshi fishermen unknowingly used the precious drops in the eggs (ikura) to heal wounds and ease the pain of burns. It seems the skin injuries recovered miraculously without any inflammation or even signs of scarring. This eventually led Japanese scientist over the last 6 years to develop soothing serums that will form the basis for LUMINE® Japan’s breakthrough formula for healthy and not to mention drop-dead gorgeous skin that is noted for its purity and cleansing properties.
Emceeing the event was none other than the luminous Hannah Tan who lent a token of glamour and credence to toast a new chapter in the brand’s marquee line-up of 3D Skin Perfection Facial Dimensional Sculpting Technology. The suitably glitzy affair even boasts a complimentary 3D Facial skin health test session where guests were pampered and preened by skilled beauticians who lavished elixirs made from royal jelly, cordyceps sinesis, squalane, arbutin, hyaluronic acid, organic pearl coix and coenzyme Q10 on all comers. The event is the first in a series to be organized around Asia, outside Japan.
On this occasion, LUMINE® Japan revealed the closet thing that it has come to a bona fide treatment to reverse aging and recover the long lost love of skin health, with a proven line-up that combines hydrating facial foam with a skin balancing fermentate lotion to iron out imperfection. Combine that with a much lauded beauty white essence that whitens as it reduces the appearance of pores. All the products are non-scented and do not contain any artificial preservatives, colorings or hormonal stimulants.
For a more intensive regime there is even an Advanced skin repair essence, a rich Emollient moisturising cream and to top if all of before you lay your head to rest a generous glass of Whitening night collagen prepares one for the hustle-and-bustle of the next day. The LUMINE Whitening night collagen is best selling in Taiwan, Hong Kong and S. Korea for its ability to reduce mental stress, enhance your sleep quality while the skin repairs at night. Good news, then for Malaysian urbanites that do not have the time for a lengthy beauty regime.

Gamila Secret Cleansing Bar is a handmade creation which takes 40 hours cooking process, period of 4 to 6 months for drying, stamping and curving the edges.
I tried the Gamila Secret Cleansing Bar for one month last month, that time I was having some serious skin problems and acne has appeared all over my face. My skin was very sensitive back then, but luckily Gamila Secret Cleansing Bar is not only cleaning and nourishing my problematic skin but also it has softened and healed the acne and sensitivity. I used the mini bar day and night to clean my face and body, surprisingly the mini bar last for more than a month. I even have used it to clean my 3 years old daughter face because it's so mild and it's 100% natural, more than 80% virgin oil (220 pressed Syrian Olives)

Instant Hydration From Deep Within - L'occitane Angelica Skincare
I was glad to be part of the very first bloggers event organised by L'occitane Malaysia Last month. The event was held at The Apartment, KLCC, the place was so quiet in the morning, good choice for the event.
The event was to introduce the bloggers L'occitane Angelica Skincare range.
There are little things we can do for our skin that make a big difference. Every woman dreams of that morning glow – plump, dewy skin and a radiant complexion. And the key to that is HYDRATION.
Injecting moisture into our skin is not only an absolute necessity, it is also the key function of the new Angelica range, which combines organic angelica water and essential oil to rehydrate and revitalise the skin with long-lasting results.
The Provencal Angelica, also known as “Angel Grass天使草”, is a traditional plant from the Umbelliferae Family. It has a remarkable vitality due to its amazing retention structure to lock moisture for its rapid growth. Its tremendous self hydrating power enables it to grow to a height of a few meters in just a few days!
