Viccal and Hanamei products review!

Posted on April 4, 2011 by Anna Ker

Do y’guys remember I got some products from TheSampleStore for an honest review?

Yes, its Viccal and Hanamei’s!

I’ll start with the Viccal No. 2.11 Serum: Detox and Heal!

This is it!

After using this serum for close to a month, I have to say its really not bad! Y’know its actually hard to judge how good products are in such a short time, but I think within this short 1 month, I somewhat feel that my complexion has improved!

I realised that my pores are a little smaller now, especially around my cheek/below eye area, where the largest pores ever could usually be found.

However, I must say that if we want products to work well on us, we have to be consistent as well! Lazy is not an excuse! So yeap, my daily regime is I apply this serum twice a day. After I cleanse my face in the morning, before I put on any other skincare.. as well as after I cleanse my face in the evening/night after I bathe.

Want to know what Viccal’s serum are made of?

They only include natural actives, which have a naturally restorative effect on skin’s appearance – whether to balance, protect or renew, their products combine actives according to their natural benefits in concentrations that are s!most efficacious!

Actives are derived from flowers, herbs and plants.

Products do not contain alcohol, artificial fragrances, colourants, fillers, preservatives or ingredients like plastics and silicones..

Viccal’s approach to delivering honest skincare solutions is to ensure our products remain authentic and pure!

Yay, no alcohol and some other ingredients, are good! Because they don’t cause our skin to be dry! Preservatives are not used as well.. so no artificial products in there!

There are a total of 3 different products, to cater to different skins and different needs of different individuals!

Hanamei!

So what is Hanamei for?

This pretty little bottle here is for intimate beauty treatment..!

It is a hair removal after-care Brightening Serum!

For most hair removal procedures including waxing, plucking, and shaving, the undesirable can often be removed! but not its side effects. Bumps, ingrown hair, darkening of the skin, inflammation and soreness are just some of the more common problems that your skin can suffer from.

So Hanamei is here to rescue!

Hanamei is created specifically to care for your most intimate are especially after any hair removal therapies. Besides providing instant relief after hair removal, it also keeps delicate skin supple, smooth and fair over time.

It is rich in Japanese botanical extracts, gentle yet effective for everyday use, even on other areas like underarms, elbows, and kneecaps where skin is often rough and darkened.

After using the product, I agree with its claims! The serum is thick and it totally pampers your skin especially after hair removal! As for brightening, I believe I need a longer time to prove it.. We all know whitening products don’t work like magic! They all take time! & Of course, being consistent on using the products really help too! :)

You can visit their pretty website @ http://www.hanamei.com/ ! Love the websiteeeeeeeee man!

Till then! ;)

Hello people! :D

Sorry for the lack of updates. Feels like my blog is dying!! =(

Anyway, remember awhile ago I mentioned I received some masks from TheSampleStore? :D

&& That I’m having a give away? *More details below!!*

Thanks to TheSampleStore, again, I got these masks to try!

Let me introduce a little about this emerging brand, Love More!

This might be a brand we’re yet to familiarize with over in Singapore, but its actually One of the Best Selling Mask Brand in Taiwan!! I’m glad their products are being brought over to be sold here. Since its best selling, I’m sure it has its merits yeah?

Furthermore, the masks are made up of imported ingredients from Japan, Australia, Brazil, France, Swiss & Scotland. (And they’re actually not very costly, reasonably priced, I’d say!)

•

Do you recognise her?

If you do, you probably watched the Taiwanese drama, 《下一站幸福》!!! She’s actually Tiffany Hsu Wei-ning 许玮宁, the main actress in the drama!

& of course, the reason why you’re seeing her face up there is because she’s the official Taiwanese endorser for the LoveMore masks! Heh!

Can’t get enough of her?

Interestingly, this LoveMore brand actually engages two different celebrity to endorse their products in different countries!

This is Kary Wu! She’s the Hong Kong endorser for LoveMore. & that’s her concert poster!

If you’re interested, this is her blog: http://t.sina.com.cn/karyng

And an extract of her ravings about Love More masks:

“I finally finished my work, and the first thing that I do when I reached home is to pamper my skin! I want to recommend "LOVE MORE MASK" which I use daily to everyone! Other than pampering my face, I think it is important to take good care of my neck too! This 3D mask fits perfectly to my face, and the ear-hooks wraps my face and neck~ you will turn beautiful and fair with just 20 minutes a day! To babes who want to become prettier, let us enjoy "LOVE MORE MASK’s" Magic!!”

Ogay, enough about celebrities! Time for me! :P

These were the masks that I received from TheSampleStore! <3

Aren’t they pretty and CUTE!!! :D I’m a sucker for such cute designs and yeah if I see them outside, I’m sure to buy and try!!!

This is the mask in the orange package (apologies for the bad exposure!)

Its called the “Japanese Pearls Firming & Whitening Mask”

The benefits of it: Firming and Tightening, Whitening, Supple feel

Features and effects: Combining 3D mask and using the latest small molecules technology, the pearls from Japan, Isecity, and white gold penetrate deeply into your skin and firms, smoothens and brightens your skin instantly. The condition of your skin improves drastically becoming smooth, firm and bright!

I’m a person who loves whitening products because I really want to be fair!!! So yes, everything that has whitening effects will attract me first! Anyway, after using the mask, my face of course, felt rejuvenated, and makes it more supple! And like what they claimed, I like how my face brightened up the next day, after using the mask! :D

(The instructions always say put the masks for 15-20minutes, but I think its quite a waste because usually even after 20 minutes, the masks are still quite damp. So i usually put on my masks throughout the night, and when I wake up, teehee, the mask drops off and everything’s on my face. But people with oily skin are not advised to do this, because it might cause your face to be more oily due to the long period of time!)

So I slap the mask on, and go to dreamland! :)

& Then on another day, I tried this super cool ‘3D mask’! My first time!!

See how its used!

There are hooks to secure the masks to your face, both at the side and from the bottom of your chin, thus I guess how it gives the ‘3D’ feel? It actually hugs your face pretty firmly and yes, I really felt that it worked when I woke up the next morning. HAHA!

Oh yes, this is called the “Japan Electric Ore Peptide Firming Duo Lifting Mask”!

Its benefits are: Tightening and Firming, Anti-aging, Supple feel

Features and effects: The latest “turning back time lifting” mask fits your face and neck perfectly! It fights against gravity, lifting the skin at your neck, mouth area, cheek, eye area.

Nanopeptide -1
- protect and visibly reduce wrinkles and efficiently prevent premature signs of aging.
- maintain your skin’s natural moisture level

Syn-Ake
- erase wrinkles , relaxes your face muscles and reduces muscle concentration making your skin smooth and even.

YEAP, like what I mentioned above, they actually ‘lift’ my face up! :D Good for firming!

& The last mask that I was given – the PINK packaging one!

It has the benefits of: Lifting and Tightening, Supple feel, Smoothing

Features and effects: Are you unable to improve your skin’s elasticity and end up having pimple instead? Now, you do not need to worry anymore that the antioxidant essence is always higher than the hydrating essence in your mask. The Australia agar-agar lifting mask is specially formulated for the 25 to 30 year olds using sea bird nest from Australia’s Great Barrier Reef and other skin lifting ingredients to give you radiant skin just like an 18 year old!

–

If you’re interested, Love More masks are available exclusively in Watsons from 15 January onwards! The 3D Mask would cost $8.90 for 5 pieces, and the normal ones would cost $7.90 for 5 pieces as well! Reasonable yeah? :D Go grab yours now!

All these random photos are accumulated from the time I got my phone until now, which is a good 3-4 months. Of course I’m not posting every single photos, but selected few hehe. So please don’t expect super good quality photos because Blackberry’s cameras are really “private limited”.. So pardon me for the lousy qualityyyyy.
