Mentholatum Organic Lip Balm in Lavender and Orange Flavour Review

Is there anyone out there that never suffers from dry or cracked lip? Put your hands up!! .......... Okay, nobody read this either XD. Lip balm is an essential item and almost all girls (or boys) posses it. It gives an instant relief for the uber dehydrated lip. I sometimes suffer from it, so lip balm is important for me.
I've tried many lip balms before, and nothing suits me. It either dries out my lip more (hello menthol), or make it darkerI suspect that petrolatum or its derivatives is the main cause. Thus, I searched for a petroleum jelly free lip balm and I came across this: Mentholatum Organic Lip Balm.
I got it from Singapore Watson's last year. I forgot the price, but it lasts me until now. There are two flavours available: Raspberry & Strawberry, Lavender & Orange. I bought the latter one.
What It Claims:
I threw away the packaging. Thus, here's the descriptions I got from Mentholatum Malaysia website:

Introducing the purest organic beauty solution to naturally protect your lips - Organic Certified Lipbalm. Discover your secret to all-natural beauty!
  • Double-Action protection for a flawless soothing sensation -
    • Organic moisturizing ingredients & Vitamin E for smooth, moist and supple lips all day long
  • Organic Certification
    • Ingredients free form pesticides, chemical fertilizers, synthetic chemical inputs and genetically modified organisms
    • Manufacturing process insures compliance to the standard set by the organic certifying agency
    • Packaging materials used are recyclable and biodegradable
  • A lipbalm enriched with natural organic essences
    • Made from blends of imported organic ingredient from renowned organic farms including Olive Oil, Shea butter, Jojoba Oil and Beeswax to give your lips a sheer natural nourishment
What It Does To Me:
This is my holy grail lip balm! The texture is velvety as it glides smoothly on my lip. I use it before going to bed, and voila! The next day, I wake up with super soft and kissable lip! The main thing is, it does NOT darken my lip!! Yay yay yay~~ <3 It also hydrate cracked and dry lip instantly, convenient for those perks-me-up moment. As for the staying power, it lasts about 4-5 hours with drinking/ eating in between. The scent? I am not sure, as it is not as strong as it was used to be. Faintly calming yet refreshing?
I apologize for the blurry before photo as my hand was shaky then, and again, I didn't check the results after shooting it. My bad.
How I Use It:
I put it on before going to bed, or for those ' emergency' moment, as it works instantly. If you suffer from terribly dry lip, try to exfoliate it first before putting on this lip balm. Re-apply whenever needed. Oh, I am wearing it now while typing this.

Have you ever tried this? What do you think of my review? Feedbacks are welcomed ^^ Thank you so much for reading!

Bio-Essence Miracle Bio Water Review

Follow my blog with Bloglovin
Today, I'm going to do my first review of a beauty product which is called Bio-Essence Bio Miracle Water.I bought these two at Singapore Watsons for $29.90 as it was on sale that time. I actually was going to buy Avene eau Thermale Thermal Water, the facial mist I use. But I got this instead, because my Mother said my brother uses it and it brightens his face. Woohoo! It's a good chance to try new product also. Kekeke~~

What It Claims:
The degree of coolness of the spring water determines the soothing, anti-irritating and calming effects.
Bio-Essence Miracle Bio Water contains Bio-Energy which is well-known for its benefits in dermatology. The Miracle Bio Water is uniquely low in mineral and super low salt content yet rich in trace minerals, ensuring 2X cooling, soothing, softening, moisturizing, whitening and anti-irritating effects. It is a miracle bio water with 20 excellent efficiacies.

  • Refines pores
  • Whitens & brightens skin
  • Firms skin with better elasticity
  • Lifts skin

Ingredients:
Aqua (Miracle Bio Water), Nitrogen
Packaging:

One of it dropped, thus the spray stop working-not as tough as I thought. Now, I use it by pouring a bit into cap and apply it on my face.


What It Does To Me:
I love this facial mist! At first, I was a bit skeptical as the claims sound too good to be true. Boy, I was wrong. The actions speak the other way.

  1. Brightens and evens out my skin instantly.
  2. Reduce the appearance of dark circle, as well as puffy eyes.
  3. This is what I love most: it calms and clears every tiny PMS acne (millia seeds mostly, to be exact), as well as preventing them. I love how soft and supple my skin is.

How I Use It:
After washing face, spray the mist evenly, and pat softly. Before it dries out completely, massage the skincare product you use until it absorbed completely.

If you are generous and want a better and more long-lasting effect, try to spray Bio Essence Bio Miracle Water after every 2-3 hours or whenever you need it. It's expensive for me, and being the stingy me, I only use it after washing face, and only on face and neck. Haha!
That's it, for my first review. Hope it was helpful for you! ^^
