As you know, I'm a big fan of Kiehl's. I think they have the best, best cleanser in the world, which is the Rare-Earth Oatmeal Milk Facial Cleanser #1.
This cleanser is just great. It is moisturizing and cleansing at the same time and will leave your skin a soft, smooth and non-stripping effect.
It works very well for me and bunch of my other friends. But Coboh tried it and her skin reacted badly to it. So make sure to test the sample first! Kiehl's gives free samples for skin test, btw.
And the clay mask! I mean, clay masks are great, and you can find them anywhere. But I recommend Kiehl's Rare Earth Facial Cleansing Mask that not only deep cleanses your skin, but also control oil. Seriously, try it out.
I'm pretty crazy about masks. But I have a very, very, irritatingly sensitive skin, that I only use natural (or seem like it) ingredients products, which make me very happy that I move here to this country, why? Because of LUSH! :D
Indonesia has Lush, but Singapore doesn't. That's why I'm very happy when I figure out that lush is available everywhere here! Well I used to use their body powder and their bath balls, which I love love love.
Then I found out their mask: mask of Magnaminty which is almighty! (alright, a bad one. Got it.)
It deep cleanses and exfoliate at the same time. It's just great! And it is quick drying. I like to use Kiehl's mask to sleep, and this one while I tub with their heavenly bath balls.
Then their hand cream: Smitten by Lush is great. But I stick to Ultimate Strength Hand-salve by Kiehl's, because it's easier to bring everywhere. But you know, the best moisturizer is water. Drink water!! That's how my skin survives in this drying winter condition.
And talk about winter, the best lipbalm is Burt's Bees beeswax lip balm. It smells great as well. Kiehls has great lipbalm, Lip Balm #1, but I find it difficult to use and can be too liquid-y, I prefer the stick type. And Burt's busy bees are doing a might hell of a job keeping my puckers moisturized (alright, another bad one. Strike two) and guess what, it's cheap! :D
Ok, as you might have thought, other products, like The Body Shop and Origins are natural products... but TBS doesn't cut it for me. It's too harsh for my skin (and scalp! Major hair problem with their shampoo!) and Origins is just too oily for me. Their Paradise Found is great though. Maybe I should give it another try...
