Hit Pan: July 2012

It's a skincare party here at my Hit Pan list for July.

July Empties

1. Etude House Happy Teatime Cleansing Cream in Lemon Tea
This one's my favorite makeup remover. It's less oily and more affordable than Pond's Cold Cream. I'm now on my second tub, but I've got a feeling that this will be discontinued soon, because Etude House has discontinued the Happy Teatime Cleansing Foams.

This is my secret to clear complexion. It literally kills soon-to-be pimples and shrinks the ones that have already appeared. Whenever I feel a painful bump forming under my facial skin, I leave a cotton ball soaked in this toner on the affected area for a minute or two, and the pimple never shows up! I also use this all over my face (only at night) to prevent future breakouts. Salicylic acid is my skin's savior.

I didn't use this everyday (because of laziness) so it lasted about 10 months on me. (The shelf life, according to the packaging, is just 6 months upon opening.) This eye gel feels very soothing and it refreshes my eye area, but it does not improve the appearance of dark circles. But then, if you're after a product that would relax tired eyes, you'd like this because it feels so good when applied.

This scrub from Snoe works wonders in making my skin brighter! I also love that it's affordable and locally made. I'd consider repurchasing this.

Care to share your current empties?

Love,
Helen

    My sister loves the Happy Teatime cleansing cream too! I hope Etude won't consider discontinuing the line. Glad to know what your latest "empties" are Helen. =))

      Thanks, Charlie! I hope so too, because it's a really nice product. If ever they do, I hope it would be a better one. :D

    The Snoe toner sounds like magic. I'll check it out if my recently-bought Human Nature Balancing toner doesn't work out.

      HN's face care line didn't work for me, but this one did. It depends on our unique skin type. But yes, do check this out. :)
