Product Review : ShiroMomo Hada Whitening Mist

It has been over a week since the Eternity Inter-Trade private sales and it's about time to review some of the products that I've bought from them! As mentioned on our Facebook page, I got both the ShiroMomo Hada Whitening Mist AND the Water. Well what can I say, I love my peaches. They smell absolutely lovely and got me lusting after them immediately.


The bottle's quite cute to me, like a chubby kinda bottle? I know that sounds strange. However I'm also slightly disturbed by the baby's head in the peach =/ I guess it kinda signifies getting soft, baby-like skin with the usage of the ShiroMomo series but... Babies' heads are creepy > o < (Off topic but I had a nightmare about being haunted by a baby's ghost LOL)


Here's the mist after spritzing on my hand. If you can tell, it's quite a fine mist and you'll not end up with big water droplets all over your face.

Firstly, there will be a lack of photos in this review because... The mist I bought was from the sales so they didn't have any English translation or ingredients list! HOWEVER, I have received information that this mist is...

MINERAL OIL FREE
ALCOHOL FREE
COLOURANT FREE

Finally, an alcohol free face mist!!! I hate alcohol in my face mist. I once had a toner/mist thingy from Etude house that was raved by other bloggers. But upon usage, it stung my face like mad and I had to trash the whole bottle. This mist also contains goodies like peach leaf extract, hyaluronic acid and placenta for fair and dewy skin. Do not ask me what placenta it is because I have no idea at all~

However, what I know is that this is an awesomez face mist!!! It smells super good and refreshing. And if you ever accidentally OD on your powder / foundation, this is an easy fix for you. Spray this all over your face, take a make up sponge and dab off all the excess :D I like using this as a finishing spray so that my face won't look too dry and powdered. According to Eternity Inter-Trade Singapore, you can use this on your body too! I sometimes use this as my toner too. Really makes my face soft and plump, probably like a "baby's skin".

In terms of fairness however, probably because this is just a mist, I haven't really noticed any difference? I'm not a mega pale person and my skin tone has been the same for years already. I would say it more of refreshes a tired face and brightens it instead of making your face fair.

This bottle costs $16.90 and I'd say it's quite a good buy, especially if it's on sale! A bottle will last you for quite some time and it smells so good... So... Why not? :D

Effectiveness : ★ ★ ★ ★ ☆ (Everything's good, just no fairness really, just brightens~)
Scent: ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ (What can I say? I love peaches!)
Texture: Similar to water.
Overall: ★ ★ ★ ★ ☆ (I'd buy it again for sure when mine runs out :D)

Love,
Chiharu ❤

Disclaimer : I bought this mist for reviewing purposes and because I love peaches!

Product Review : Vichy Thermal Spa Water

A few days ago, I blogged about the Vichy's Spa Water and 80th Anniversary workshop. I recommended ya'all to purchase THIS on Domokie's FB page.


Yes, that's the normal packaging for the Vichy Thermal Spa Water I tried at the workshop. And you all should know this. I used to think that such water spray thingies are like some kinda scam, it's like asking us to pay for a spray with water in it. Before I thought of such water sprays as scams, I bought a few and tested them out. To me, those were just water. I didn't see any effect at all so yes, for the rest of my life, I classified them as plain water.

However, after attending the Vichy workshop and trying it out...


I bought it!!! I bought the limited edition packaging one so it looks different from the first picture. Now the best thing to prove that I love and recommend a product is when I buy it after testing it. This is now my 神奇水, AKA my newly found Miracle water. Before I start babbling more, let's take a look at the usual, ingredients list!


Yea... Once again I recall my previous thinking of the plain water spray thing...


Not just the plain water you can get from your tap ;) I know the difference now, this water actually has heaps of minerals that our skin requires!

This water's actually from a Spring in a town called Vichy. Here's a continuation for the cool facts! Cool fact #3, the Spring from which this water is drawn from has been declared a public health spring in 1846! Vichy is like... A really really ancient and old grandparent. This miracle water is 100% natural of course, from the spring itself and EFFECTIVE at the same time! I myself have seen some strange special effects when using this so I'm about to share it.


This water is what I call, 万能. Super multi-purpose.


Ta-da! So many uses~ But I have one more to show you and that's my absolute favorite!

Also, I will not be telling you what Vichy says because for stats and info, you can ask from the BA working at the counter. Sharing my experience is a different thing.


My favorite way to use this is as a mask. You'll have to get your own compressed mask from SASA though.


There's no before picture but can you believe that this was taken at about 8pm, after 8 hours of work excluding travelling time? I've had my make up on since around 7am in the morning and it's been more than 12 hours. This is what sparked me to get this can of miracle water.

Also, I did not blot my face before taking this picture or prior to using the mask. It ALL magically DISAPPEARED. There was no cakiness, no nothing, except for my blush being somewhat eaten away. My face was super bright too. Catherine saw the difference too, so I swear you have to do it to witness it for yourself.

I did a mini test the next morning, I woke up with a mega greasy face and proceeded to spritz a good amount of this miracle water all over my face. I then waited for about 10-15 seconds before dabbing it off with a tissue. Guess what? I became shine free! I was super amazed so I told Ringo, which was why she suggested drinking this after eating a heavy meal to get rid of the oils. This water is sweet too =) It can be drunk but I don't think you'd wanna spend your money just to drink this. NOT that I intentionally spritz this in my mouth, I accidentally sprayed on too much one day and it trickled into my mouth =/

We were not sponsored the 150ml set, Ringo, Catherine and I bought a set each though. Our actions speak a lot louder than this post. I'm not sure if this limited packaging set is still available but I think the normal one is, so get one from your nearest Vichy counter today :) It is that good! Besides, it costs only 14.90 for two cans of this if I'm not wrong, so why not try it out once?

Effectiveness : ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ (Soothes, brightens, hydrates, miracle!)
Scent: No scent detected.
Texture: Like how your water would feel.
Overall: ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ (It's cheap, it works, sensitive skin can use it, so why not try it?)

Love,
Chiharu ❤
