My Thoughts

The white milk has a soft and smooth texture. It is easily adsorbed into the skin, leaving it coated and oily for a while. The next morning, I will have an oil shiny nose. It did a good job in moisturizing my super dry skin and prevents the dry flaky skin from appearing, but it doesn't whiten the skin. With daily use, I see that my skin has become radiant, smooth and moisturized. It's only like using it for more than month, then the dark spots are eventually lightened and disappearing.

I find that the dispersing hole is kind of huge so I have to squeeze the bottle gently in order not to squeeze out too much milk and causing a mess on the cap.

My Experience
Got this 50ml hand cream free from Premier shop.  It was given to me as a sample when I passed by the shop.  All I need to do is to go inside the shop to wash my hands with sea salt, which I did not buy.
It comes with an inconvenient screw cap. 
This smooth and silky white cream has a strong perfume scent.  It smells so good.  I apply this cream every night to my dry hands and feet.
Squeeze out a little cream onto palm, spread it on my hands and feet.  Massage my hands, feet, nails and cuticles till the cream is fully absorbed.  It absorbs rather fast into my skin without the sticky, oily and greasy feeling.  My skin seems to have a smooth wax coating.
After a week of application, my hands are much softer and smoother.  But my cuticles are still dry. 
If I know this cream is so good, I would have taken it every time I pass by the shop.  I am regretting for not taking it when it is given to me.  They are now giving out another product.  Hopefully they will give out this hand cream again, and I will definitely grab it.

Double Whitening

Arbutin is an extract from natural plant bearberry, with natural whitening properties.

Intensive whitening with high concentration of Arbutin to help fight dark spots and optimize skin’s fairness and translucency.

Vitamin C helps re-balance skin tone and restore skin’s evenness to reveal a fresher, clearer and more radiant complexion.

It is free of fragrances, mineral oil, alcohol and colorant.

Skin pH balanced.  Low Irritation.

Directions :

Use after applying Whitening Lotion.  Apply on palms and gently pat onto face until thoroughly absorbed.

Ingredients :


My Experience

This white essence feels soft and smooth. 

Press 1 pump onto my palm.  Rub palms together, then apply to my face and neck.  It feels oily.  However, after a few rubs and pats, it absorbs into my skin, almost like nothing is applied on my face.


After a few applications, I see my face brighter.  My freckles and pimple marks are not lightened.  It probably takes a longer time to see result.

This essence is good for Singapore’s hot weather.  Not sticky, oily or greasy, feels comfortable. 
.
It will be perfect if it comes with super hyaluronic acid and sun protection. 

A non oily and sticky essence for whitening + hydrating + sun protection is a perfect essence for our Singapore's hot weather and busy life style.  It is really bothersome to apply so many products in a single skin care routine, especially during the morning rush.

3 Benefits of Shirojyun Whitening

Deep Moisturizing
Intensive Repair
Double Whitening

Arbutin is an extract from natural plant bearberry, with natural whitening properties.

Contains Arbutin to help fight dark spots.  Smoothes and clarifies to optimize skin’s radiance and translucency.

Vitamin C helps reduce the appearance of dark spots to give clearer, fairer skin.

Contains Hyaluronic Acid to hydrate intensely, keeping skin soft and supple.

It is free of fragrances, mineral oil, alcohol and colorant.

Skin pH balanced.  Low Irritation.

Directions :

Use twice a day after cleansing face.  Apply on palms and gently pat onto skin until thoroughly absorbed.

Ingredients : Water, Dipropylene Glycol, Glycerin, Arbutin, Betaine, PPG- 10 Methyl Glucose Ether, Disodium Succinate, Methylparaben, Styrene/VP Copolymer, Tremelia Fuciformis Polysaccharide, Sodium Hyaluronate, Succinic Acid, Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate.


My Experience

This transparent slightly white lotion has a less smooth and thick texture as compared to Hada Labo Super Hyaluronic Acid Hydrating Lotion.  It is more suitable for my pimple prone skin.

It comes in a convenient flip cap with a small protruded dispensing hole.  Slant the bottle a short distance away towards my palm and steady shake for the lotion to shoot out directly from the hole to my palm.  Do not squeeze the bottle, otherwise lots of lotion will squirt out from the hole. 


2 drops are enough for my face, eyes and neck.  After a few rubs and pats, it absorbs into my skin as almost I have not applied anything.  My face has a smooth and hydrated coating.

After months of applying, I do not see my face getting fairer.  My freckles and pimple marks are not lightened.  But my face is obviously smooth, bright and hydrated.

When I am at home the whole day, I apply this lotion only.  It will not make my face oily and sticky in the hot weather. 

It is better if it comes with super hyaluronic acid.and sun protection.

My Experience

This thick yellowish gold color mask has a very strong smell, like mint and flowers mixed.  After getting used to it, it actually smells nice, but a little too strong.
 
It comes with an inconvenient screw cap.


I mask my hair once a week after using Tsubaki Head Spa Shampoo. 

After shampoo, squeeze the excess water off my hair.  Squeeze out a handful of mask onto palm, spread thoroughly throughout and massage from scalp to hair, particularly on the ends.  I usually massage longer on the ends to prevent dryness and spilt ends.

I use a shower cap to cover my hair for at least 1/2 to 1 hour.  I am the “kia su” type, want my hair to absorb the nutrient thoroughly.  Thinking the longer I mask, my hair will be more beautiful.  Normally after 1 hour or more, then I will rinse off with water. 

After, my hair is extremely tame and flat.  I can see and feel my hair texture improved.  It is soft, smooth and shining.

The strong smell of mint will stay on my hair for at least a day.

The next few days when I wash my hair with other brand shampoo and conditioner, the tame and flat hair from this mask will remain on my hair.  This feeling will last for the next 3 to 4 days.
