Tuesday, June 30, 2015 [Sponsor Review] Biore UV Aqua Rich Watery Gel
We all know how HOT and SUNNY Singapore has been recently, With the sun blazing, it is important for me to pack along essential items with me to work or when going out! Here are some of my must bring for a hot weather: water bottle to replenish body fluids, wet tissue to keep myself refreshed, umbrella and shades (going all out to block the sun, lol) and not forgetting the most important thing ever, SUNSCREEN!!!!!  In 2014, a benchmark survey done by Kao revealed that only 30% of women between age 12-49 years old use sunscreen daily. What's more surprising is that this percentage remain unchanged for the past 5 years. By now we should have already knew how important sunscreen is as sun spots wrinkles and freckles (I already have them!!) can be caused by UV rays, All thanks to Biore UV Aqua Rich Watery Gel, I am fully shield from the merciless sun,  Biore UV Aqua Rich Water Gel contains superior double UV block with enhanced SPF50+/ PA++++. Some of the product benefits includes: - Maximum protection against UVA and UVB rays from the sun. - It has a light and watery texture which allows smooth application. - No sticky feel (which is one of the important we look out for in a sunscreen) - Suitable for face and body.  Love its light watery texture and it actually gives a slight cooling sensation upon applying!  
Been using it on my face as a makeup base for about 2 weeks now and i'm loving it!
It is great for daily use and the watery texture that is easily absorbed makes it faster to apply on a daily basis. It also keeps my skin feeling refreshed and well protected!
Biore UV Aqua Rich WAter Gel retails at S$18.90 for a 90ml bottle. Available for all leading pharmacies, supermarkets, departmental stores and beauty stores.

So I received the all new Biore Aqua Jelly Makeup remover for review! Firstly, I notice it is not exactly a new product as I have used to use them before! but the packaging looks different isn't it?  Upon closer, I notice that it now contains SMOOTHER JELLY! It now comes with improved benefits! - Smoother jelly now makes it glides on more easily so that less tugging is needed. - High cleansing ability easily dissolves all traces of makeup - Contains 40% moisturizing essence - Lightweight formula leaves no sticky or oily feeling  Love the pink and brown combination of the bottle.  It is indeed lighter and and more watery compared to the previous texture, which is thicker and denser. 
Here I have an example of the makeup that I use on a daily basis,
 By the way, you DO NOT NEED to use facial cotton pads to remove it, you can directly apply it onto your face! I am using cotton pad here to show the makeup being removed fyi. :)  After wiping it off, ZERO traces of makeup can be seen!  After rubbing the aqua jelly over your skin, simple rinse it off. Smooth and clean!!  Here, you can tell how efficient is the Biore Aqua Jelly Remover!  To be honest, initially I thought cotton pad was needed! (LOL) Now that I know it is not required, it means I save money buying cotton pads!  You can clearly tell the duller size of my face is after removing the makeup. x)  
Biore Aqua Jelly Remover is available at all leading supermarkets/ personal care stores and pharmacies at $24.90.

With the convenience of Biore cleansing sheets, which I've been using for a really really long time. I never thought there's any product better than that, until Biore had another new product!
Micellar Cleansing Water.
What I already like when I have not even tested the product. It is WATER-BASED! Water based makeup remover are non-oily (needless to say), feels cleaner and non-sticky!
The special key point about the Micellar Cleansing water is it's water micellar technology, It contains Natural mineral water from Northern Japanese Alps. It also has an Anti-Bacterial Formula which helps prevent pimples and breakouts, at the same time minimises pores for a more refined complexion and enriched collagen & white tea extract for brighter, softer and suppler skin.
Simply Pump 1-2 times onto a cotton pad and gently wipe off make up, no cleansing required! Talk about time saving!
  see the gross amount of makeup being removed. Eyeliner can also be easily removed by placing the soaked cotton pad onto close eyes for about 5 seconds. 
here's my face with makeup.
after removing half of my makeup! nothing left on my face!
 (pic taken on different day which explains the different clothes lol) I personally felt that the Micellar Clenasing water gives a refreshing feeling due to the water based, and i love that it can efficiently remove all traces of makeup as well!  Skin feels refreshed with no oily after feel, and it's also suitable for all skin type!  Available at all pharmacies, hypermarkets and supermarkets and departmental stores at $18.90!

So.. i received a new Biore product to try recently, and i wasn't really excited because i thought it was just another foaming facial wash. I remembered clearly that Biore already had a series of foaming facial wash. and i was wondering why there's something new that look like the same thing? I thought they just changed the old packaging into a new one.. until i get my hands on it! Can you spot the what is different about this new foaming wash???? Spot the label: it says REMOVES MAKEUP + CLEANSES DIRT!  Here are the advantages of it: CONVENIENT & GENTLE - removes light makeup like bb cream, blusher, eyebrow pencil lipgloss etc. (excluding waterproof product) , 8x denser foam ensure close contact with skin and pores with minimal harsh cleansing motion. HIGH CLEANSING ABILITY - Contains 800% more micro bubbles to penetrate into pores and remove all traces of makeup, dirt and sebum. SOFT, MOISTURIZED SKIN - Contains 40% beauty essence so skin feels moisturized and smooth with no tightness after use. Lets put it to the test! foam is dense enough and doesnt drip!  On my hand: Bb cream, blusher, eyeliner, and lipstick!  3 pumps is all you need! but since I'm demostrating on my hand, i had only 1 pump and its more than enough!  massage in circular motion... :O im impressed! no traces of make up is seen already! 
rinsing off!
 Taadah! All clean now!  Im sold! i love it! after further trying it on my face. my skin indeed feels moisturized and soft with no tight feeling. saves time, extremely convenient and cost of buying makeup remover AND cleanser. it would be great for people with busy lifestyle and even on holiday!

Like many others, i LOVE make up and am willing to spend a part of my daily routine to do my makeup before heading out!
look at my drawer-ful of junks!  And even though i love doing make up, there's always a price to pay for beauty. We have to maintain our skin, make sure it is thoroughly cleansed, spam lots of skin care on our face to make sure those chemicals we put on our face is not ruining our skin. and we all tend to get a little lazy some times after a long day from work/school/shopping and what's not, and we will be get a little lazy when it comes to removing make up. Ever since i started using makeup, i never really clean my face properly when i was in my teens age. i merely remove eye makeup with some removal oil and wash my face with water, as i grew older, i know it's time to take care of my skin! I chanced upon Biore's advertisement on tv long long time ago and i was very keen to try. Bought my first Biore cleansing wipes which were the very first generation and i have been using it for YEARS. Now, i'm thrilled to received AND to introduced their newer version of the cleansing oil cotton facial sheets! I actually heard about the new version but haven gotten a chance to try it myself! Here's the new improvements:
SPEEDIER MAKEUP REMOVAL
(20% more cleansing oil in each sheet)
GENTLER TO SKIN(50% less repeated wiping on eye area, eye lashes and face) MOIST AFTER SKIN FEEL (Now with Hydrating Beauty Essence)    The inside!  And here's the handy pack! the new one is slightly bigger than the old. 
Did i mentioned that it is super convenient for travelling? Like i said, i've been using it for a long time, of course i have used the handy pack as well! 1 pack consists of 10 sheets and is enough for more than a week! I brought it along with me during my taiwan and phuket trip and it 's just so fuss free. no need to worry about oil leakage into your makeup bag or whatsoever!
Now let's compare the sheets! Initially i thought it was the same size but no! it's slightly bigger! (fyi i did not stretch the sheet.)
 Let's do the test. it is stated that the new one consist 20% more cleansing oil than the old version! 
Taaadahhh! I think its almost 50% more instead?! :O
 So here's my makeup look of the day. Consist of eyebrow pencil, eyeliner, shimmery eyeshadow, highlighter, lipgloss, blusher, bb cream, sunblock, uv base. That's about all.. hahahah, this is how far a girl would go to make themselves look pretty! 
And im going to wipe everything on my left off! Remember, gently press against your eyes for a few secs to make removing makeup more efficiently!
Here's how my eyes look after JUST 1 WIPE. 80% of my eye make up is GONE!
 stains after 1 wipe. 
After wiping half of my face! Still loads of clean parts left and the opposite side for the remaining side of my face!
  Biore makes my daily makeup removal routine more convenient, much faster, and leaves my skin smooth and clean! Im definitely not gonna stop using this! Thanks Samplestore!
