nekochan 0 Report post Posted January 28, 2009 Try Cetaphil Gentle Cleanser - great for sensitive skin. Leaves a bit of a moisturizing film after washing which helps hydrate the skin. Not expensive, about Rm35 from any pharmacy. I've also been using the Moisturizing Cream - that's relaly cheap in the US (I buy it by the jar!) but in KL you can only get in a tube format - not quite sure about the price though. IF you don't sleep in an air cond room, you don't need much moisturizer but if you do, then you need to use moisturizer when you sleep. And, keep your skincare regime simple - no need all the mask mask all, no need facials - just keep it clean. The more pressing and prodding will make things worse. Also remember, the most organic and natural of products, once it's bottled and distributed, it would be a few months before it gets to you - if it's so natural, the product will deteoriate so they still need to put in chemicals and other stuff to keep the product stable. It's like putting sugar and salt in all the canned food. So, don't believe everything you read - marketers / copywriters like us get paid to write and make these stuff up and let me tell you, the words Organic, All Natural, Pristine, 100% whatever, etc are words we use all the time to help the manufacturers SELLL their products and help you waste your $$$. Do you know that the cost of a product - you are mainly paying for packaging, container and advertising and the cost of the actual product i.e. the cream / liquid / etc is actually very low...

jingyee 0 Report post Posted February 8, 2009 (edited) You got to try Monrose products it, it is wonderful ! My face always feel itchy and sensitive last time.. The balancing day cream and its cleanser solved my skin sensitivity and itchiness, i like to apply it with thick layer on face because it seems like a make up base for me, because it makes my VERY RADIANT and smooth. I even use it at night although i was told by carrie that i m not suppose to do that. But i love it VERY VERY much Edited February 8, 2009 by jingyee Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
winterblue 0 Report post Posted February 14, 2009 Just my 2 cents...I would suggest that you DONT use/try Face Shop's sleeping mask if you have super sensitive skin. It has a lot of ingredients which, in my opinion, may cause an allergic reaction when applied to sensitive skin and/or be pore clogging which would result in the growth of comedones or pimples.. Dont go for brands like this when u have sensitive skin. It's best to go natural/organic so you can be sure that you dont pile chemicals to further damage your already extra sensitive skin. Thanks for sharing with me Teff. I didn't know that this sleeping can be so powerful one , luckily i haven't buy it yet. I m now using those fresh aloe vera gel from the plant instead..so far ok... Try drink MELILEA GREENFIELD ORGANIC. testimony i heard from who consume Melilea Greenfield organic was: "I have been consuming Melilea Greenfield Organic for 3 months. This product is so amazing that I feel compelled to share the benefits I have gained. I've had acne on my face for at least 12 years. I had tried practically everything to get rid of it... oral and topical antibiotics, acne creams and facial products. None of them helped. My confidence was at the lowest level... I was hiding from people, not wanting anyone to see my face. Besides my face, I had eczema on my body, legs and arms. Scratching only makes my skin condition worst as the eczema spread to other parts of my body. Reluctantly, I had to use steroid cream regularly (not recommended) as the itchiness was unbearable. After consuming Melilea Greenfield Organic for 2 months, my complexion has improved significantly and my eczema is gone! I was ecstatic."

Do you know that the cost of a product - you are mainly paying for packaging, container and advertising and the cost of the actual product i.e. the cream / liquid / etc is actually very low... nekochan. i definitely agree with u. sometimes i feel we are paying more for packaging than for product that is why i always look at the ingredients of the product. i read somewhere that manufacturers have to put the ingredients with more percentage first and the least percentage at the end. also.. at least i know how much natural stuff i am actually buying. anyway, i was at this new mall in PJ called Tropicana City Mall and saw a shop there that sold organic skin products! I think the name is Body Bar... i was like testing products there like crazy... i read the ingredients and most of the products all had natural ingredients at the beginning of the ingredient list so should be quite natural.. there was summore this one brand called Mukti from Australia that is certified organic. Price all quite reasonable.. just below hundred. was going to buy a whole set of mukti and remedic but then no credit card machine =( going again this week with $$$ yay!

nature.luvva 0 Report post Posted February 15, 2009 Hey winterblue.... for NATURAL & ORGANIC SKINCARE that is AFFORDABLE... check out BODYBAR All Natural & Organic Skincare which just opened at Tropicana Mall, PJ. It is a one-stop-natural-skincare shop. The concept is to offer skincare that is "good enough to eat" ie. no artificial fragrance, no artificial color, no harmful preservatives, no petrochemicals, no harsh detergents, no animal cruelty.... at an affodable price (comparable to Bodyshop and Skin Food price range). Some of the range is certified organic and 100% natural (eg. Mukti) while most of the other range is at least 90% natural. The blog (My Women Stuff) recently did a review, read it here -http://www.mywomenstuff.com/2008/12/30/bodybar-natural-skincare-your-one-stop-organic-skincare-store/ Many brands from Australia & New Zealand such as Mukti, Remedica, etc... and the best part is... it's very cheap and affordable!! Go check it out!! woops... hehehe.. ya this is the store! naturalbabe u the owner? love the shop.. see you soon! please get a credit card machine!

I have sensitive skin too, but this product works well for me. if you are with combination skin, u can choose Boost Balancing Moisturiser. If dry skin then Repair Cream. As I know it is only available in an online shop in Malaysia - nature in a box. Hope this helps. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
