Seaweed Treatments

I have super oily skin - something that I've been trying to treat for a looong time.  And Facial Blotter is with me 24/7 (so all that facial blotters in the goodies bag will be put to good use!)

I am in the middle of using Shu Uemura's PuRenovate range when Nic showed me the Seaweed range from Body Shop that does the same job, BUT at much cheaper price.  So I purchased a traveler's set, because I want to see if it works on my skin... and if it does, I will buy the whole range in full size.

I've been using it for two days, so far I see my skin has become less oily, but still oily.  I am going to give it two weeks or at least until the product finish before I decide if I want to stick with it.

RM79.00 set includes
Seaweed Purifying Facial Cleanser, Clarifying Toner,
Mattifying Day Cream and Clarifying Night Treatment.

Below is the write-up on this product taken from Body Shop US site;

ADAPTIVE SKINCARE THAT BALANCES

Our innovative Seaweed range delivers essential moisture to where your skin is dry and controls shine when and where you need it. Whether your skin is naturally prone to shine or reacts to the weather, our wild-harvested seaweed is a complete and balanced source of nutrients, vitamins and minerals, so your skin is purified and conditioned.

The range is oil-free, alcohol-free and clinically proven to be non-comodogenic. The leave-on products use our special oil-balancing technology that controls existing sebum on the skin for an instantly mattified complexion, while the active ingredients are retained on the skin to be released as oil is produced throughout the day. Your skin appears clarified, hydrated and shine-free all day.

Pure Renovate your skin!

Remember my post about the Pore Expert Skincare by Lancome?

I may have found a more affordable skincare range for my oily face.  I've been using whitening range, but since I have not been golfing for a long time, I figure it's time I tackle my super oily skin.

I was at the Shu Uemura outlet the other day to collect my gift redemption as Shu Fanatic member. I asked for the Purenovate samples to see if it really is as it claimed to be.  Guess what?! Even though the sample only lasted me a couple of days, I could see the difference in my skin condition.  I don't get oily as quickly as I used to.

So after my current whitening range is finished, I'll be switching to this one.  At RM400 ++ for the whole set, it's half the price of my current skincare set.

It claims to be a total oil-control solution for blemish free skin, tightens pores and regulates sebum production for perfectly matified skin.
