Shaklee Get Clean Water  

Posted by: Foxy Frangipani in


I got this as a gift last year and is still currently using this. I like that it didn't need any installation. Just basic rinse and soak for a couple of hours before the first use and we're good to go.

I already have a water filter attached to the tap, so for me this is double filtering. The great thing is this doesn't make the water smell. I wash the unit weekly and refill this twice a day - I drink alot of water! Together with the multiple vitamins that I take daily, I am happy to declare that I don't fall sick as often :D No more weekly sniffles (yes weekly if not twice a week at least)

Shaklee Says:
A fresh take on healthier water, Get Clean® Water is a new multipatented water filtration system. Unlike other water pitchers, Get Clean® Water uses a solid block of carbon to clean your water, reducing some pretty nasty contaminants—including up to 99 percent of lead!

Get Clean® Water is the first pitcher to use a refillable carbon-block filter system so there’s less plastic to throw away. And it filters 303 liters (80 gallons) of water per filter.

Cleaner, healthier water and a cleaner, healthier planet?
We can all drink to that!

Beats Leading Brands!
• Certified to reduce lead, mercury, cadmium and more contaminants while retaining healthy minerals!
• Certified to reduce chlorine, thus helps to reduce harmful effects cause by its health-threatening by-products!
• Certified to filter 303 liters (80 gallons) - twice as much as leading brands.
• First-ever pitcher with refillable carbon-block filter system.

The Smart Choice!
• Costs only a few cents a liter.
• Healthy, great-tasting water.
• First automatic pitcher meter that shows gallons filtered - no electricity is required.
• Handy and portable.
• Save cost - no boiling is required.

THE SHAKLEE DIFFERENCE
SAFE: “Gets the lead out” and more.
Get Clean® Water reduces many harmful contaminants that can turn up in your water. And Get Clean® Water is certified by the Water Quality Association (WQA) to reduce lead and more.

SMART: Only a few cents a liter.
Malaysians are pouring money down the drain by drinking bottled water. For only a few cents a liter, Get Clean® Water gives you clean, great-tasting water—with a smart meter that shows you exactly when to replace your filter. No more guessing.

POWERFUL: More clean water every time.
Get Clean® Water gets 303 liters (80 gallons) from every hardworking filter—twice as much as big-name brands—and reduces contaminants that can actually turn up in your water and be harmful to your health.

GREEN: Keeps the planet green.
Get Clean® Water uses the first refillable carbon-block pitcher filter system, so there’s less waste in the landfills. And each filter is made with our sustainable coconut shell carbon, which is better for the environment.

Oriental Princess Natural Intensive C Repairing Serum

Foxy Frangipani Says:
Nett Wt: 60ml
Made in: Thailand
Scent: Citrus
Price: About 350 - 500 Baht
 
Vitamin C.. they are good for us aren't they? I pop mine daily in the morning. And when I came across this in Bangkok last year, I had to try one.
 
The texture is not sticky or thick, makes application really easy. Doesn't sit on top either. Once absorbed, skin feels smooth to touch. No tingling or sensitivity issue.
 
This is mildly scented - fresh citrus. I only use this at night. Keeps the pimples at bay somehow but does not take care of redness. I find that if I use this continuosly after a month I no longer see any differences. So I skipped a month monthly and I see more positives. 60 ml for the price is really a steal.
 
I wouldn't mind repurchasing this one, but I am tempted to check out what is new at Oriental Princess :)
 

LilacBox 3  

Posted by: Foxy Frangipani in


This happens to be the only beauty box I purchase amidst all the 12376521 different ones out there. This is my second purchase (I skipped the 1st Box). The first experience wasn't quite a pleasant one as the Nuxe cleanser leaked into the box. However customer service was quick and I was given some Lilac Points as compensation. 
 
I like the fact that I do not need to subscribe to X months. Just buy as and when I feel like it. Not knowing the brands could be risky, but so far with Lilac Box, their products were pretty impressive. I love the Nuxe (love love love loveeee) items, Phyto, and fragrance samples.
 
This round, we have Babor - I've not tried anything from Babor.. curious to see if I would be an addict :P
 
And Yves Rocher shower gel - very nice smelling.
I've had pleasant experience with Max Factor foundation so the many sachets included are perfect for holidays and trips.
 
Now I'm patiently waiting for the concept box to arrive..

Sightings - Watsons 29 June13  

Posted by: Foxy Frangipani in

The last time I visited Aeon SP was over a year ago.. and I remember the Watsons here were the first in Penang to carry Essence products.

Made another trip today since we miss the food at Black Canyon Coffee.

I am pleased to find these!
Last month after reading one of the women's magazine I went looking for Kanebo Freshel Mineral BB Cream Pore Cover MB but couldn't find any.  I found the entire range including some skincare items here!

Also Essence Illuminating Makeup Base and Skin Perfection Makeup Base were very tempting. Now if only people don't open up too many items and left them to spoil..

Produced for Daiso..

Carmex Moisturising Lip Balm  

Posted by: Foxy Frangipani in ,

I see a lot of raves for this lip balm so when I first saw it in Taiwan I didn't hesitate getting 1. The reviews sounds very promising so I had really high expectations on this little fella. 

First the texture. It is super soft and buttery. So soft it easily gets dented. Still this doesn't bother me much as I'm not clumsy with stuffs.

The killer is its fake medicinal smell. Wait maybe not medicinal but very chemical-ish. And the waxy feel on my lips.. no go. These 2 puts me off from using it though it has SPF.

Upon application it gives a tingle and feels cool. But I don't think I will continue using it. Definitely not a repurchase.
