Video review for Bioré Hydra-Clear Makeup Remover

Hello girls, as you all know that just recently I have blogged about my thoughts on the Bioré Hydra-Clear Makeup Remover.

Today there will be video review done with the courtesy of me on it. There would also be a simple to follow step by step instructions on how to use it and why I love it again.

Please pardon if my voice sounds like a chipmunk or if I keep pausing as it’s my virgin attempt in making a video. Thanks in advance for the kind understanding.

As for why I only did this video on a later basis, it is probably because I was requested by BEAUTYMAP for one after the review I wrote earlier. 

To start off I applied my face with heavy makeup after prepping my skin, 

 This shows off the intense green eye shadow that i applied.

 My full makeup-ed look for the day with glossy kissable lips.

What I have used today:
  • Skin food mushroom BB cream as base
  • Benefit  stay don’t stray as eye primer
  • ZA liquid concealer
  • ZA two way cake foundation
  • Kate duo blusher
  • Majolica Majorca green eye shadow
  • Elianto black waterproof eyeliner
  • Maybelline magnum waterproof mascara
  • Stage wonder lust lip stick in Monica
  • Fasio lip gloss
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Without further ado, I present you the unglam me:



Please pardon my voice again and hope you enjoy the short video and my comedic face.

Till next time, I promise I’ll be better ^_^

Essentials that will NEVER go wrong EVER

Remember the good old schooling days when you just started out your skincare regime?

Does Bioré sound awfully familiar?

Like probably most of you girls, I started out with Bioré before switching to other brands in search of a specific skincare regime.

They have a good range of skincare products for starters and efficient products like the Bioré nose pore pack.

Last but not least, it’s a household name which we trusted, about probably 9 out of 10 Singaporeans at least heard of Bioré before.

Enough of introduction, today I will be taking about the:

 
Bioré Hydra-Clear Makeup Remover

 Please pardon my messy hair as I was really excited to share with you guys what I collected to review.

Many thanks for gorgeous people in the BEAUTYMAP team for providing me a chance to try this fabulous product.

Love you guys a lot and hope we will be able to work together again.

More information on the:  Bioré Hydra-Clear Makeup Remover
  • Made in Japan
  • Rinse off type make up remover
  • Water-based formula
  • Aqua floral scent

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Pros
  • Convenient as I no longer need to use a separate remover for my eyes and lips.
  • My stubborn mascara and water proof eyeliner are removed in just matter of seconds.
  • Does not have an oily feeling upon application.
  • Does not cloud up vision like some makeup remover.
  • No rubbing and tugging to get makeup removed.
  • I absolutely love the faint hint of apples within the delicious aqua floral scent.
  • Skin feels clean and smooth after usage.
  • No tight feeling after usage.
  • No skin irritation or rash break outs.
  • Cost saving as need not waste money on buying cotton pads or tissue. Some brands of makeup remover require the use of cotton pads or tissues to entirely remove the product from your face.
  • Squeeze type bottle dispenses out product easily without much effort.
  • Love the cute water drop looking package a lot.

Cons
  • Ensure that enough products is on your hand before applying it on to your face as it gets a little difficult to spread it evenly.
 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Comments

The cute blue water drop lookalike package is so lovable.

The Bioré Hydra-Clear Makeup Remover is colourless and easy to work with.

I have been test driving the Bioré Hydra-Clear Makeup Remover for a few days now and I totally enjoy how time saving it is. Just one simple step to remove all my makeup, no more additional eye and lip makeup remover or scrambling for cotton pads when they ran out in the bathroom.

It is also easy to use, hassle free and really effective no matter how thick my makeup is or how many layers of mascara I put. Though for more stubborn mascara I have to give it some time to dissolve with the gentle massage movements without having to tug at the lashes.

Unlike some other brands of makeup remover which irritates my eyes a lot and clouds my vision, I do not encounter such issues when using the Bioré Hydra-Clear Makeup Remover.

Even though I have sensitive skin, I experience totally no rash or pimple breakouts at all. There is no tight or greasy feeling after usage and leaves my skin clean and smooth to touch.

The Bioré Hydra-Clear Makeup Remover is also really affordable too, at just 200ml at $27.00 dollars a bottle and every single time, you just need a little for the entire face. You get to save up the money on cotton pads too.

My Verdict
10 out of 10 stars, as even students are able to afford with their extra pocket money.

Will I buy it?
YES, I will love to buy it again and recommend it to my friends. It smells heavenly, works effectively, is affordable, what more can a girl ask for?

Girls, hurry to your nearby departmental stores, supermarkets, drugstores to grab one of Bioré Hydra-Clear Makeup Remover, you will definitely fall in love like me.

Till next time ^_^

BRAS that are NOT for your ASSETS

As I have mentioned above, there are other bras in the world other than those for your godly irreplaceable assets. 

I love mine too, but today is not for the time for those.


Recently, I received a package address to me.I really love to receive packages, as it’s like a surprises bag.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 
 Upon opening the package,

It reveals the: Yufit’s HOT Perfect V-line Face Shaper Bra ~~ 

Many thanks for the kind people from the: Lush Group Pte Ltd, with the generosities to share with me the bras for my trial and evaluation. 

Love you guys a ton. 

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Who should use Perfect V-line Face Shaper Bra? 

Everyone who:
  • Wants a more sculptured looking face.
  • Wants to have more prominent jaw line.
  • Wants to have more firm and supple looking skin at the face area.
  • Have unsightly wrinkles.
  • Hates the sight of double chin.  

More information on the: Yufit’s HOT Perfect V-line Face Shaper Bra 
  • A beauty product from Korea.
  • A stretchable mask type bra.
  • One size fits all with its pre-cut ear holes.
  • Self heating without any wrapping of towel or plastic films.
  • Helps to reduce the cellulite on the face especially targeting double chin.
  • Contains lifting collagen.
  • Helps to prevent wrinkles.
  • Moisturize the face.
  • Usage is about: 30 to 40 minutes.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Upon tearing open the package,

The entire bra is soaked up with more than sufficient amount of essence, I must say it is a pretty generous amount of it.

Open the mask and just loop on at the ears, it is just that easy.
 
This is me with the Perfect V-line Face Shaper Bra on. 

As the bra is of good size and covers a large surface area, more face surface can be treated.

Just after putting on the bra, I realized:
  • OMG The mask really does heat up by itself remains like this for the whole 40 minutes.
  • The heating up sensation feels like face sauna without the mist.
  • This is a little weird as I felt a cooling sensation and yet I can feel that the bra is getting hotter.  
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

After about 40 minutes,

 The mask is all dried up as the essence is fully absorbed to my skin. 

My dirtied bra, OMG this just sounds so wrong. 

Anyway, I was so excited to try it out that I forget to remove the makeup residue properly before putting it on and thus you can see the foundation marks left on the bra. 

NOTE: Girls please remove your makeup before using this. 

DA-DAH ~~ 

My moisturized and supple lower face and neck area, my face still feels super hot after removing the bra and the feeling only subsides after a few minutes.

 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Pros
  • Really convenient to use as traditional ones are normally sculpturing cream/gel that requires constant massage.
  • Fast absorption by the skin.
  • No sticky feeling throughout the entire time.
  • After usage skin feels smoother and firmer.
  • No rash or pimples break out.
  • Essence provided in each sachet is sufficient and there is only slight dripping on to my neck area. Did not drip to my t-shirt that I am wearing

Cons
  • Ears can get a little strain with the bra on the entire time even though it is indeed more convenient.
  • There is a peppermint-y and slight herbal smell, I am really not sure on how to pin-point the scent out. Luckily that the smell is quite light and is bearable for me but I am not so crazy about it.

Comments
This is indeed an innovative new product that have caught my interest as I always have problems with my double chin appearing when I take pictures with my friends. 

The self-heating technology can get a bit unbearable for some people but for me I feel that the hot sensation is nothing compared to someone who have to undergo the pains of surgery.

My skin does appear more supple and moisturized after use. Cheek and jaw area appears slightly more firm and less chubby. Through I can’t really expect to see a drastic visible change right away as I have only tried the product twice.

My Verdict
8 out of 10 stars

Will I buy it?
YES, as I really want to try out for myself to see whether will there be a huge different upon long term usage and will the effects totally wear off if I stop using it.

Girls, to get your first hand experience on the Yufit’s HOT Perfect V-line Face Shaper Bra, you can get your fix at: John Little departmental Store (Jurong Point, Plaza Singapura), BHG Bishan (Junction8), Hereen (ALT) & at their website @ www.secretive.sg.

They are priced at a box of 7 pieces @ S$35.00 dollars.

Till next time, love you girls ^_^
