Skincare is Self-care

Skincare is self-care, and self-love.

 

Malaysia has gone into another round of national lockdown but I’m pretty optimistic about June.  It is important to embrace self-care and self love, and maintaining a positive mindset will get us through Movement Control Order 3.0

 

Do not despair.  There’s so many things one can do during a lockdown.  We just need to get creative.  Clean up the clutter in our rooms, learn to cook, take up baking, read a book, etcetera.

 

Start a skincare routine, if you don’t already have one.  Or start pampering yourself a bit more.

 

Here’s a video by Sara Mack Lubis, a lawyer by qualification and journalist by profession, sharing  with us her simple skincare routine, which I hope you all will enjoy.

 

 

Sara starts off with cleansing with the Georganic Red Yeast Rice Facial Foaming Cleanser, followed by toning with the Georganic Hawaiian Deep Sea Mineral Toner to restore the skin’s pH balance.

 

The third step is serum, and Sara has chosen the Orinbe Hyaluronic Acid Energy Ampoule.  There are many different types of serums, each with a unique purpose and ingredients.  The Hyaluronic Acid Energy Ampoule features the skin fitting membrane technology to keep skin soft, moist and supple.

 

She then uses the AHC eye cream, followed by moisturising with the Georganic Goat Milk Brightening Cream before finishing up the skincare routine with Orinbe’s 4 Season Moist Sun Cream.

 

Thank you Sara for sharing your skincare routine with us.

 

So many of us have dreamed of having flawless skin.  Seeing Korean stars like Jun Ji-hyun, Gong Yoo, Park Bo-gum, Kim Go-eun, among many others, make us go gaga and set our hearts fluttering.

 

So when I came across this article in Getaranmy written by Amirah Abu Bakar, it got me interested.  Click on the picture to get to the write-up.

Non sticky or greasy cream. I always apply the cream during day and night time. Best result when you always stay under the air conditioner as it keeps my skin hydrate.

Malaysians love Georganic Moisturisers

In a nutshell, goatmilk has the most resemblance to human milk (protein structure), making it familiar to our body, the pH is same as human skin and its rich in lactic acid (AHA) and act as gentle exfoliator.

Georganic moisturiser Bifida Mineral Water Cream

It spreads on my skin well, and leaves my skin with a glow neutral finish, which is not too oily but also not with matte finishing. My skin is well-hydrated with this cream, I feel so happy with it so I keep reapplying it!

Georganic moisturiser Goat Milk Brightening Cream

For brightening effect, yes I can see it after around 2 weeks of usage. The price is RM170 (a bit pricy for me honestly) but trust me it’s worth to purchase.

Georganic moisturiser Centella Ceramide Moisturising Balm

This moisturizer comes in a very sleek, minimalist yet chic tub. When I received this moisturizer, I was a bit sceptical because it is quite thick for my oily skin. It has this thick, balm-y texture so I am worried that it will suffocate me. However, once I applied this to my skin, it melts and glides PERFECTLY. I would say it is like a burst of water! I love the way it moisturizes my skin without suffocating my skin.

Georganic moisturiser Goat Milk Brightening Cream

⚡️Moisturising on the skin, great as a night cream!
⚡️It helped brighten up my dull skin from all those sleep-deprived nights.
⚡️Not oily and not sticky at all, suitable as a base under makeup.

Skin Care Routine

That’s Clean and Healing

The Basic & Light Skin Care Trio Set comprising the Hawaiian Deep Sea Mineral Toner, Bifida Mineral Water Cream and Galactomyces Intensive Oil Serum.

Georganic Malaysia’s search for K-Beauty Product Reviewers came to a close last month and the response had been encouraging.

Modern Essentials, the exclusive distributor for the skin care brand in Malaysia, has identified 15 reviewers nationwide and have sent out the products to all of them. The reviewers has 2 weeks to review the products of their choice before posting their reviews.

Someone bought the Basic & Light Skin Care Trio Set (pictured) using my promo code BEE4ME before checkout which entitled her a further 5% discount. I would like to say “Thanks” from the bottom of my heart, and hopefully, there’ll be more customers who use this code during checkout at www.MODERN.my

The Basic & Light set comprises the Hawaiian Deep Sea Mineral Toner, Bifida Mineral Water Cream and Galactomyces Intensive Oil Serum. For those who are new to this brand, it is good to try the mild set, and this is the mildest among the three sets available.

I have tried the Deep Sea Mineral Toner and the Bifida Mineral Water Cream, and my skin is more hydrated now. I find the toner very refreshing while the cream’s absorption rate is fairly fast.

My skin care routine includes the Red Yeast Rice facial foaming cleanser and the deep cleansing oil, as well as the Goat Milk Brightening Cream. That’s all the products from Georganic that I am currently using.

My sunscreen is the Orinbe 4 Season Moist Sun Cream, which has a Sun Protection Factor of 50. This cream which contains Yuzu, also absorbs fast into the skin and has no white cast after application. This also you can use BEE4ME code before checkout at http://www.MODERN.my. Thanks 🙂

Red Yeast Rice Cleansers

The Red Yeast Rice Deep Cleansing Oil (left) and the Red Yeast Rice Facial Foaming Cleanser from Georganic.

I’m not a big fan of oil-based cleansers but the Red Yeast Rice Deep Cleansing Oil doesn’t feel oily at all. After cleansing, the skin feels soft and so refreshed.

It has ingredients like olive oil, isoamyl laurate (which is a lightweight oily ester) and red yeast rice. As you know fermented rice is packed with enzymes and amino acids which are nourishing and moisturising to the skin. On top of that, olive oil is hydrating, acts an an oxidant, contains vitamins A,D,E and K and has been shown to have antibacterial effects.

Below is a full list of the ingredients of the Red Yeast Rice Deep Cleansing Oil.

Olea Europaea (Olive) Fruit Oil, Isoamyl Laurate, Sorbeth-30 Tetraoleate, 1,2-Hexanediol, Tocopheryl Acetate, Monascus Extract (Red Yeast Rice), Water, Lavandula Angustifolia (Lavender) Oil, Citrus Aurantium Dulcis (Orange) Peel Oil, Citrus Aurantium Bergamia (Bergamot) Fruit Oil, Juniperus Mexicana Oil, Pelargonium Graveolens Flower Oil, Illicium Verum (Anise) Fruit/Seed Oil, Cymbopogon Martini Oil, Cananga Odorata Flower Oil, Pogostemon Cablin Leaf Oil, Borago Officinalis Seed Oil, Fucoxanthin, Butylene Glycol, Astaxanthin.

The Red Yeast Facial Foaming Cleanser is not super foamy. I usually use this cleanser in the morning and I use the oil during the night, and on days when I use heavy makeup, I will do a double cleanse where I will use the oil first to remove the makeup, followed by the foam cleanser.

When I was younger I used to like foam-based cleansers as I like that squeaky clean feeling. My skin was oily back then. The taut and tight feel after cleansing didn’t bother me, but now I know a mild cleanser is better as it doesn’t strip away the essential oils.

Here’s the ingredients for the foam cleanser. Spirulina Maxima extract is said to help achieve youthful skin.

Spirulina Maxima Extract, Potassium Cocoyl Glycinate, Butylene Glycol, 1,2-Hexanediol, Heptyl Glucoside, Monascus Extract, Xanthan Gum, Glycerin, Oryza Sativa (Rice) Bran Extract, Carica Papaya (Papaya) Fruit Extract, Laminaria Hyperborea Extract, Lavandula Angustifolia (Lavender) Oil, Citrus Aurantium Dulcis (Orange) Peel Oil, Citrus Aurantium Bergamia (Bergamot) Fruit Oil, Juniperus Mexicana Oil, Water, Pelargonium Graveolens Flower Oil, Illicium Verum (Anise) Fruit/Seed Oil, Cymbopogon Martini Oil, Cananga Odorata Flower Oil, Pogostemon Cablin Leaf Oil, Fucoxanthin.

Sometimes I do forget to wear sun block even on a hot sunny day. So I’m hoping these two cleansers can help to even out the age spots and pigmentation.

When it comes to skin care, it is not necessary to overdo it. Just give your skin what it needs. It’s not possible to stay young forever, but we can try to stay youthful for as long as possible. All it takes is self-love, self-care and a little effort.

I read somewhere that yeast in the rice ferment filtrate will support the skin’s natural surface rejuvenation process, thus helping the skin to look and feel soft.
