Hi all
Previously, you people mention about the lightening of the nipple cream which cost $2. I think it is dangerous to use such a cheap product. I am using a breast mask for lightening my nipple colour and it does help.

Hi Adeline
The product is from USA and it costs me SGD17 to buy. But I feel it is very useful. Do you want me to e-mail the detail to you?

Hi honeygem, Harrods,
Hope you are still around. Yesterday went to New City as recommended by you. The doc really have patience to explain to me. He prescibed the small container skinoren cream, wash foam, sunblock and a vit A gel. Are you all have the same? He told me no need to see him after i finish the products, just go to their counter to purchase. Do you go back for 2nd appt? Do you guys use with other product of your own?

hi bluesky and harrods,
Really sorry, I have not been on this thread for a long time. can pm me if you like...
Harrods, how's the stuff working on you? Bluesky, you've got mail.
trazz, i dont know whether he has cures, but apparently there's nothing much that we can do if our lifestyle is generally not healthy.

Sorry to interrupt hoh..i'm just kpo a bit..Why do u gals want to lighten the nipple huh? Is it really nicer to have it lighter? I was a bit astonished when i first saw it being sold in the market.. cos it never crossed my mind to change anything of that part of my anatomy before leh?
And just to add my own comment lah.. I also did buy a yellow corrector for undereye circles from Daiso, and yup, it's only $2 bucks too. But even though it may be cheap, the texure is really nice, goes on smoothly, and it doesn't irritate my eye area or cause millia seeds which some very expensive eyes creams i've bought before does.
Quality doesn't always have to equate with quantity. Sometimes, we might just be paying more to cover the well known product's advertisement costs and retail space, and not for the goodness of the ingredients in it.
Anyway, do try going to Daiso yourself and giving these 'cheap' and unbranded goods they sell a try. They stock a wide range of lifestyle products from stationery to household wares and even gardening decorative items at $2 each only. I did go a bit nutty the first time i went in there. The quality and wide range of choices are unbelievable !
Btw, I'm not the grand-daughter of the founder of Daiso or employee or have any relatives who are employees of Daiso hoh! I just find it's a terrific place that sells quality things at a very good value, and would like to share with you all, ok!

Yeah I use the Artistry eye replenishing cream for my dark eye circles. I find it quite effective as my dark circles are now nearly gone. But this is also because I made it a point to sleep early and not rub my eye area. Its cheap too huh? 27 bucks??

Zen, my skin is good now and Im very happy with it. Im not seeing the doctor anymore though and I've also changed my skincare regime.
How sensitive is your skin? Do you get break outs often? What's the actual problems?
I've stopped using any acidic/astringent AHA etc based products and converted to plant based ones. Instead Im using a really mild cleasing milk (Bio-essence)and no facial wash or soap based cleansers so as not to strip the skin of natural moisture. Use a facial sponge/cloth with warm water to remove excesses. Tone and moisturise (Loreal HydraFresh) with simple products that contain no acids.
Exfoliator and Mask are from plant based Daintree range - Natural source. When I first changed to this mild skincare regime (not necessarily the products as it may not work for you) My skin improved vastly. So Im sticking to this
I think the basic principle is to keep your skin irritant free.
My beautician is May of Snow White Beauty. 98277264, located at Shaw Centre.
If you need more info, you can PM me.

Hi All,
I need to change my cosmetics soon, I think the current one I'm using is not suitable. I have combination skin and my T-zone is very oily, I clogged my pores easily. Would appreciate if you all can give me recommendations for :
1. Sunblock
2. Foundation
3. Loose powder
4. Compact power
Thanks!!!

Hi Apple
I'm using Biotherm's foundation which I find not bad. Cos it's water based so it's not oily and doesn't clog pores and it feels light.
Since you're afraid of clogged pores you shouldn't be using compact powder cos compact powder actually do contains oil. Loose powder will be a better choice. If you want a compact powder for convience, can consider buying a mini container for the loose powder so you can bring outdoor for touch up.
For Sunblock, I'm using Shu Uemura. But I can remember if it's water based.

Hi YL,
Thanks! I also prefer to use loose powder but usually the packing is not portable. Any suggestion where to get suitable mini container?

forgot to mention to you earlier. When you getting a sunblock, don't get one that too high in SPF, eg. SPF 50 and above. Get something SPF 20+ is good enough. Cos if we get one that's too high in SPF for long term use can be damaging to our skin. can be as serious as getting skin cancer.

I'm currently using tinted sunblock I bought at Jean Yip Saloon, but it's very expensive. A small bottle cost $75.00, it's SPF 15.
What loose powder you using? I'm thinking of getting Clarins, my friend say not bad... I did try to search for the mini container but all doesn't comes with filter. If that is the case, will have to keep the sponge separately.

Hi there!
Umm YL: are you a doctor/dermatologist? Sorry, it's just that a lot of info is miscontrued here and coz I'm a scientist it really irritates me to see nonsense being broadcasted. No offense.
SPF only refers to the amount of time you are allowed in the sun above normal, before you burn. It does NOT directly cause cancer.
There is chemical and physical barriers. If you choose suncreams with physical barriers, there is essentially NO reports of cancer. Even with chemical barriers, there is no direct cause of cancer.
It's becoz ple tend to stay in the sun longer when they think they have higher SPF to protect them, so they stay too long and burn. It has little to do with the suncream itself.
And diff companies have diff formulations. You have to see what goes in the tube. Any synthetic chemical can potentially be carcinogenous.
Basically SPF is good, but there is UVA, UVB, UVC, etc. And I find in Singapore the suncreams don't have full spectrun UV coverage so even though they are SPF 20, they are not the same SPF 20 as suncreams from other countries.
So there you go.
Have fun!

Hi mahjongnine
I'm not a doctor/dermatologist. I just share what I know. That's what I was told when I was shopping for my cosmetics. I'm glad you are here to give us more information on this.
There are so many sunscreen in the market. if we want to get a sunscreen, how shall we choose one that suit us?
You mention synthetic chemical can be carcinogenous. What kind of synthetic is damaging? For everyday use, how much SPF is enough?
Sorry that I have so many questions.
Apple: I always use compact powder cos of convenience. It was till recently then I know that it actually contains oil so I also looking for loose powder. I just purchased a loose powder from Tony & Tina. Haven't try yet so can't give you my feedback.

Hi Apple
Why not try T. LeClerc, a Japanese rice bran loose powder, which does not clog pores at all. it's gentle enough to sensitive skin or acne-prone skin. it has so many colours which act as a skin tone corrector with different functions such as green cancel redness that caused by acne.
i think of using Tilleul (green) at first but finally i got my first T. LeClerc loose powder in Parme (purple), i found Parme is much much suitable to my reddenish acne skin with yellow tone.
Reason of getting T. LeClerc: Heard so many good reviews about this amazing loose powder, moreover i dream of it since last year, but due to no money then dint buy. Until last week i must have to buy because when i used back the Averine loose powder that lied for one-year time, it gave me swollen eyes, very horrible! now with T. LeClerc, no problems to my eyes & no obvious breakout, very happy with the results!
