From NC35 -> Nc25 my exp getting lighter skin

 

It's been a long time since I did a beauty post :) i thought I'll share a little bit of my whitening secret.

i have commented about my skin looks lighter, in fact many of my foundations doesn't really work now. i have been trying to get a more even skin tone. i'm not the type that try to get whiter skin for the sake of it, but i have two main problem. My face and my neck shade is at least 2-3 shade apart. My neck is a lot lighter than my face, and I'm trying to get it more even. Second is my right hand part of my face has been getting lot of pimple scar last year, and leave a few scars. I try to even out the scar so that I don't need to wear concealer over that part.

I cannot pin point which product helps to lighten my skin but these are the products that I use that say it helps skin whitening

IPSA Metabolizer EX4

this is a moisturizing lotion, combining the function of toner and moisturizer in one. I think the texture is more like a light emulsion. This has anti-aging and whitening properties, and the most important of all, this is the only moistuizer that helps my skin to go oil-free in those days in Hong Kong.

It has a very light texture, and I'm quite happy about it. This is the most moisturizing version you can get, but it doesn't really work in winter. I have been using this since October.

You can purchase this from Bobodave, or ask some of the online shop that can help with a CP. The cheapest is actually to get it in Hong Kong. Cost me $550? in HKD,  which is nearly £50. But it is 100ml...

 Sana Soy whitening serum

I mentioned this before in this post.

So roughly the combination of these two porducts helps me from NC 35 to NC 25. 

 On another note, I'll be meeting Jamilla and Jennifer this thurs as Jennifer is back in London again. We'll hit the counter in Selfridges!! yeah!

Dilemma - DiorSnow, IPSA, Lancome or Shiseido White Lucent

I need some help... I probably will post some help me out questions between now and my HK/Tokyo Trip.

I love Vichy. I tried my very best to love it. It is reasonably priced and I like the texture. But I can't help thinking it didn't do any help when I broke out. I have been having lots of red patches and spots, I am trying hard to think it is all due to the late night sleep and dao dao harassing me in the morning.. but I think it could be just because of Vichy...

I did use the Shiseido White Lucent product line and I got some good results. The Brightening eye treatment helped me to get rid of my eye bag, so much so that I reduced the eyebag and the loose area became fine lines..

I like the Moisturising SPF 15 cream, although it is sticky on you feel it, my skin quickly absorb and I survived my winter with it and my skin is clear and I know together with my SK-II it helped to whitened by acne scar (proved by how much concealer I need to put in the scar area)

I read lots of rave about Dior Snow and I'm tempted. But I think the UV base is the best products but not sure if anyone tried the skincare...

I'm also thinking of Lancome the whitening product line. Lancome and I seems to be having a good time, after my experiencing with the primer La Base, the exfoliating gel and cleansing gel, I think Lancome might be for me. I again heard good things about the whitening effect.

Or should I go back to IPSA metabolizer? I like it a lot.. I used it during my times in HK, and it works for me. It works in UK however I have younger skin then and can take anything that you put on it.

Or back to Shiseido White Lucent? bearing in mind I probably will need to buy the lighter version for the humid climate in HK..

hmm.. All I want is something good value does not make me break out, hope to lighten my acne scar. Am I asking too much?
