So good that my mum stole it



Neutrogena Visibly Clear Blackhead Eliminating Daily Scrub

As the title says, "so good that my mum stole it"
This product is so creamy and gentle of being a scrub. Effectively removes most of my blackheads even though I only use this about 2 times per week. It does not irritate my skin, neither did it dry out my face ;) I bought this from the UK but a similar product can be found in Hong Kong. The exfoliants are quite fine (but not the finest I have ever tried) and there are more of them in the product than a other usual facial scrub got. The red particles actually break as you massage the product onto your face. 

Even though it says 'Daily Scrub' on the tube, I wouldn't use a scrub product every day... It's way too harsh especially I am not a teen anymore... I am also slowly stepping out from the exfoliating routine because I found that my skin has changed now. I use to be really oily all over the face when I was a teen, then combination skin (with oily T-zone and dry cheeks) just before I turned 20. Now, I seem to have normal skin all over?????

Hormone's changing??? Oh dear am I getting old?

Elizabeth Arden fails...

It's been a while, I am back writing reviews again :PSorry that it is not a 'like' product that I am going to write about for the 1st post after I returned...
 Elizabeth Arden Color Intrigue Gel Eyeliner with Brush shade: Black
Very disappointed with this. It really is a waste of money even though I got this from an outlet for only GBP2.99.
It smudges like no others, pigmentation is so poor like no other liners out there, and it is a nightmare to apply for a gel liner...

I bought this in black and it gives a colour of deep grey.The texture is so strange that it can never be applied smoothly but streaky. It feels more like a cream that never dries than a gel liner.

The only thing I am glad about this product is that it comes with a very decent brush, which I am now using for my other gel liners.

Who would get this for the original price?
This is the first product from high-end brands that I tried and has given me a poor impression...
Should I try the gel eyeshadow by cK that I bought earlier?
