OLAY REGENERIST Advanced Cleansing System

Today I would like to have some write up on the latest gadget I have in my daily routine lately. It's the OLAY REGENERIST Advanced Cleansing System. I read about OLAY Professional PRO-X advanced cleansing system online from other countries and it is named differently in Malaysia. I guess there's no different. 

The product was brought into Malaysia by Watsons in early February. I missed the first round of promotion as it falls during the festive season. I got this at the normal retail price.

I always thought that facial cleansing machine is only available at the beauty house until I saw this promotion by Clarisonic Cleansing system at the mall. I was amazed and thought that this is a great idea to own one of these cleansing system at home. At that time, I did not buy the Clarisonic product right away as I wasn't familiar with the actual advantage of having the product and I need to put in some research before I make the investment.

While reading through the information available online, I came across that OLAY actually has the same type of product at a more reasonable price. At that time, this product was not available in Malaysia and I almost bought it from an online store. The product came to my country just in time.

Like the packaging indicates, it comes with a cleansing system and a tube of 20ml skin renewal cleanser. I've not used OLAY products before this. To be honest, the skin renewal cleanser smells terrible. It's actually a scrub. But even without this scrub, when you are using your own cleanser with this cleansing system, it works by ex-foliating your skin.

Personal reflection on the product after using for two weeks:

1. My skin is clearly fairer than before. (Okay fine, I was tanned during my Koh Samui trip)

2. My pores start to appear smaller than before.

3. My facial regime finally working effectively! (I've been using the Eucerin Dermo Purifyer range for my pimple prone skin but didn't seem to work effectively all these while. This shows that my skin is seriously clogged up before this.)

4. My face feels much cleaner and lighter and of course fresher.

5. It is so gentle that you can use it every day. (I use it once a day at night)

The biggest advantage is that with a little amount of investment, I can save a lot by skipping facial treatments at the beauty house.

The product is a small battery operated machine. It is definitely travel friendly. The brush is made of micro fibres which is claimed to be very tiny which can penetrate through your pores and clean really thoroughly.

One disadvantage of the product is that it didn't come with a casing. I have to purchase a separate casing to store the brush after each use. The brush is refillable and it has be to changed after 3 months.

To date, I am very satisfied with the product and I wish to spread this good stuff to everyone. Most importantly it is priced reasonably and it is a good product to start of with if you would like to start using a cleansing system in your facial cleansing regime.

Price: RM129.90

Refill: RM24.90 for 2 brushes

Good stuff are meant to be shared. :)

Happy Valentine's Day

Happy Valentine's Day to everyone in the World. This celebration is celebrated by everyone in the World regardless of where are you from. What a lovely celebration.

This year, today, 14 February 2014 is a utmost special day for us. The western Valentine's Day co-incide with the Chinese Valentine's Day. I don't think this special day has happened before in the entire of my life. Not sure, maybe it does when I was still young and I've not known what is a Valentine's Day.

I've not celebrated any Valentine's Day with my love one ever before this. I broke up with my ex before the Valentine's Day comes. So I missed it. Oh well. When will I have my valentine?

In this Chinese New Year, I've lou sang for three times. The most times in the entire of my life. I've not made many wishes this year other than good health and be safe. Seriously. Why didn't I made a wish that I could have my valentine soon? This is so stupid. I should have. Today is the last day of Chinese New Year, no more lou sang, no more chance to make the wish. Aiks.

So yes, as usual, no one be my valentine on this special day. All these years I've been keeping a hope that I could have the chance to celebrate this special day with one of my best bro-friend. I've not said this out ever before. I was in love with my this bro-friend since high school. We were together all the time in school and have many fun times. We have gone to different path and he has got his life with his girl friend and not pursuing anything further with me. Oh well, they are now getting married and deepest in my heart, I wish them happily living after. Seriously.

I've got another friend, I'm not sure what's my feelings towards him but I'm actually good to have him as my love ones. But he has gone through a short relationship together with his ex who is also my friend, a close one. They broke up with mutual agreement but I'm not sure if it is right for me to pursue to further my relationship with him. I don't think he has anything towards me but maybe one day later? I don't know. I dare not even talk to him on this special day but I could feel that he was hugging me very tightly when we were taking pictures together last night. Friends hug perhaps? 

Hope things goes well. I do not wish to put in too much hope as the higher the hope, the more disappointment you will get.

Anyways, Happy Valentine's Day once again.
