Clear Fine Gel .. Coming to Rescue

Exfoliating At Ease…

Recently I cameacross this interesting product on the online while I was googling for face scrubs thatis suitable for me. You see.. I have sensitive and season thematic skin (coz at different times of the year, my skin willexperience different skin condition). So it’s very hard for me tofind a product range that is suitable all year round. Anyhow I have resolve tohaving 3 types of skin care range at home to suit my needs (mainly are oilyskin, dry, and sensitive). However I can’t solved my face scrub or exfoliatingissue(I mean.. I can’t be buying andstoring 3 different scrubs at home. Moreover it’s not something that I can useddaily and it will expire or contaminated easily)

I have always heardof gel exfoliating but I have never really tried one before as I don’t believein gel that can scrub off dead skin with seed particles. For sure seed based scrubsare not my favourite coz it tends to hurt my skin a lot and it will leavepatchy red spots.. which I despise a lot.

However I cameacross this product and it caught my attention. It’s called the Clear Fine Gel. What caught my attention isthat it says that it’s suitable for all skin types, even sensitive skin.

“ClearFine Gel is a product from Japan. It’s a water based and natural (without fragrance,colourant and preservative) face exfoliator that is gentle to skin. It aids inremoving blackheads, pro clogging debris and old dead skins and hence help to regulatesnew skin development for brighter skin complexion. Best of all… because of itsgentleness, it can be used on a daily basis”

Like usual, before Itry anything, I went on to gather more info on the ingredients that it used inthis product. Below is what I found…

Gylcerin : a natural humectant that attracts moisturefrom the air to the skin to keep it supple at all time

Mulberry root extract : a natural extract from thewhite mulberry tree that can be found in native china and has been used overthe centuries for its medicinal properties. In skin care it will help to lightenage spots and uneven skin tone

Hydrolyzed collagen : contains 8 out of 9essential amino acids that the skin needed to maintain moisture and smoothness

This is the interesting one…
Sodium hyluronate : a sodium salt of hyluronicacid which is found mainly in the dermis of young skin. Hyluronic acid maintainskin volume or fullness by holding on to water. However it will decrease as weage and skin loses it youthfulness. As an anti aging treatment, it’s usuallyinjected into the dermis to restore facial fullness. Sodium hyluronate is powerfulhumectants that attracts and holds on to moisture. Thus product that containssodium hyluronate help to replenish the hyluronic acid lost due to sun exposureand aging process. Keeping it supple, moisture and keeps fine line and wrinklesat bay.

Glycospingolipids : Rice based lipids that are similar to the skin’s naturallipids. They hydrate, provide moisture retention capabilities and strengthenskin’s natural barrier.

Other than that, it also contains beneficial ingredientssuch as lysolecithin , hydrogenated lecithin, isopropyl alcohol (which willhelp reduce acne by drying excess oil and also soothes tired skin) andcetrimonium Chloride (helps to disrupt surface microorganisms)

After all the reading and info from googling.. I finallymade a purchase of a bottle of Clear Fine Gel for myself. Its price at RM69 (notexpensive compare to other brands in the counter) and FREE delievery.

My first experience with it was fantastic. All I haveto do is wash my face clean-clean, pat it dry with towel and then squeezeamount of ClearFine Gel into my fingers (about the size of 5cent coin) and messageit in circular motion until you see white greyish particles are form (depending on skin. Coz for my hubby, the particlesis brown and yellow). The particles are actually the dead skins. Once theparticles is form, I proceed to wash it off. I found my skin seems brighter andnot as dull as a few minutes ago. To my surprise, it didn’t leave any red patchyspot and itchiness.

Finally I have found a face exfoliator that suits meperfectly.

if you are skeptical about it, you can always request samples from them to try out before purchase a full size item. For more info of the products, please visit

Sesame fun...!


‘Black Sesame Seed Hot Mask’ by Skin Food

Doesn’t the name of this mask sounds interesting…? Black sesame seed hot mask? I was definitely curious about this mask as I wonder how did it become hot and what does it do to the skin…When my curiosity got the better of me, I went over to the Skin Food outlet and requested for a sample of the mask to try (of course I did some purchase of products with them before requesting for the sample)..

Went home, go into shower with the pack and read the instruction on the pack and also trying to recall what the sales person instruction on using the mask.

I started by washing my face and then pat dry. Spray a little mist water on face (using a mist spray) and then applying the mask on (avoid the eyes and lip area). I started to feel the heat of the mask when I started to lightly messaging my face (the heat will goes off after 1-2 mins time). After covering all area I leave on for about 5 mins and then rinse off with Luke warm water. Follow by the usual tone and moisturiser steps. The next morning, my skin felt so soft and radiant. Not bad I must say for the price I pay…

As I always did, I went on to Google and see what is the benefit of black sesame.. Apparently, Black sesame seeds are an excellent source of magnesium, calcium and many essential minerals as well as a very good source of vitamin B1 (thiamin). Their natural oil seed contains mineral and vitamin B&E which act as natural moisturiser for the skin.

Looking for a different mask experience? Why not give this a try…
if you have sensitive skin, you may wanna consult the sales person first before purchasing.
 It’s selling at RM49 per tub…

Sweet,Sweet Sugar Mask....


‘Black Sugar Mask’ by Skin Food

I was on the lookout for a facial scrub and stumbled upon this delicious stuff. The ‘BLACK SUGAR MASK’ from skin food. This mask not only work as mask but also work well as a scrub as its sugar particles are soft and fine and its melts after a while of messaging it on the face.

I went on and did some research online. Apparently sugar scrub particles are softer, less sticky and are suitable for sensitive skin. However it’s not suited for people with rough skin (especially men) as it’s too soft to help remove dead skin. However, Sugar scrubs do not have any mineralization benefits of salt scrub and are used for facial exfoliation as they are gentle in nature.
It smells so delicious that I feel like eating it while having my mask on....
