NicaBell Review: St Ella NY - Quick Eye Styler

'sup peeps!

This is a long overdue review! I bought this eyeliner in 2010 for RM57 or RM60? I don't remember already!

I am unable to give a detail information about this product because I have lost the box and I can't find much information over the World Wide Web too. Please forgive me;-)

Brand: Melilea

Made in: Germany

Range: St Ella New York

Makeup Type: Liquid eyeliner pen

Product contains/weight: 1.1ml/ 0.0367 fl. oz

Main promoted/key/active ingredients: N/A

Claims: Long lasting, made from natural ingredient.

What it says on the box: Precision tip ensures a fine, easy-to-control application. Long lasting. Apply to dry, grease-free eye lids. Opthalmologically tested. Store horizontally.

Ingredients: N/A

Pricing: RM 56 or RM 60

Application: It is surprisingly long lasting! I wore it to work and it stays on put all day IF the eyelids are not oily. The eyeliner is not water resistant so better be careful with that! It is easy to wash off with water but you still need an eye-makeup remover because there will be still a faint tattoo-like residue on the skin without eye-makeup remover. It is not the blackest black in the market but good thing is, if you apply a very fine line on the lid, it look natural. The tip is very fine so that is very easy to control. This eyeliner is my first liquid eyeliner and my first liquid eyeliner pen. I am glad that I learn how to use liquid eyeliner with this. Any mistakes can easily be erase with wet q-tip and redo. 

The size felt just nice in my hand which convenient if you are a first timer for liquid eyeliner pen like I was. 

This product is not available in drugstore which is the downside of it. You have to go to the Melilea sale center to get one. 

I love that:- 

~ Good for liquid eyeliner virgin.

~ Precision tip and easy to control

~ Last all day if the lid is not greasy

~ The not-so-blackest-black color look natural if you draw a very fine line close to the upper eyelash.

~ Buildable for more intense black

I dislike that:- 

~ Only in available in Melilea drugstore

~ Not waterproof

~ RM56/60 is quite expensive for its quality. 

Will I purchase it again? Nope. Mine is already expired now and haven't bought a new one. Not because I don't like it, I still do. I just found another better liquid eye liner that last better and waterproof!

I'll give this product 2.5 out of 5. I liked it when I first use it. But then not so much when I found a better option.

Till then!

NicaBell Review: Simple Skincare REGENERATION Age Resisting Eye Cream

I work in an air-condition office and work with computer all day everyday.

My face is naturally oily but change as I get older. The changes of weather and working environment helps with the changes on my skin too. 

The are some dry area around my face that includes the skin around my eyes. 

I love the Simple Skincare for their Kind To Skin range. It might not help to fight my acne but it calms down my angry skin. I have less acne and less problem with dryness as well. 

So this Eye Cream is my first from the Regeneration range from Simple Skincare. 

I bought this eyecream just because I love the Kind To Skin range so much and thought the other Simple range will be awesome too. This the one product I can use from the Regeneration range. 

What it says on the box: Smile, it's simple. When your skin's happy and looking youthful, you feel healthier and happier too! Our Regeneration Age Resisting Age Resisting Eye Cream is a special blend of active ingredients that repair and protects the delicate skin around your eyes. Perfect for even sensitive skin.

What NicaBell Say: I will be lying if I say this product is great. It's good but not great. It's good because it have all those natural ingredients that helps to soothe and moisturize the delicate skin around the eyes.  I have fine lines on the inner corner of the undereye. I have used this about 2 months but still no physical result. May be I should give it another month or so to see if the fine lines will the gone or at least slightly reduce. It is not moisturizing enough, at least for me. I think the eye cream from Avene that I used before is much more moisturzing than this one. But still the best choice for people with sensitive skin on the budget. I don't get milia seeds either (the one thing I concern most!) I have to remind your peeps that this eyecream contain tiny particles of glitter. I don't know why they put them in there or may be there are ingrediants in the product that produce those glitters. But I think the glitters act at light reflector to make your eyes look healthier, brighter and look moisturize. That sounds brilliant and bad at the same time. Brilliant because you can fake the healthy look at times your eyes look dead and tired. Bad because for those you didn't aware of the glitters, they would think 'Oh! my eyes looks healthier and moisturized!' To be honest, we look the result first before feeling the changes on our skin, right? 

I rate this product a 3.5 out of 5. Just cause it is cheap and a great option of those who have sensitive skin. I feel for you, it's not easy to find product that can be used on sensitive skin with such a small price tag. It's easy to get as well in Watson. Guardian and in any drugstore in Malaysia. It's in small 15ml tube with small nozzle to control the amount of product you need. 

Thus the end of my rant. Give some comments on my post peeps!
