I would consider this pressed powder is a perfect match with the IPSA cream foundation. Its light and sheer effect can set the base makeup. Although it has 4 color on the pressed powder, I don't know if the pink/yello/blue work on the lighting effect on my face. But I enjoy the lovely swirl looks of the pressed powder. Using the brush to lightly apply the powder on my face is an interest experience. Although I only use it in the morning and never reapply during the day, the overall base makeup looks fine and freshly looked.

I got that from IPSA counter at Harvey Nichols, Pacific Place. BA is nice and very polite. They are willing to spend over 30 minutes to try the makeup foundation on my face in order to get the perfect match color for me!!! The sheer but medium coverage make me happy. Now, I forget my Chanel and YSL liquid foundation. I'm absoltuely impressed by the 易推 and sheer with reasonable coverage for fine lines and pores

I got that from Watson's store at HK$99.9. I use it after shamppo but right before hairblowing. Since there's a definite split of hair line on my head, I use it to make the roots of hair located near the hairline to "stand up". Does it work? I would say "sometime". It is because the effect vary significantly. If I spray the essence and hairblow immediately, it looks thickening along the split hairline. If I spray the essence and doesn't hairblow it immeidately, those roots turns to be cruly and not tiny. On the next morning, it is absolutely a "BAD HAIR DAY".

I got that from YSL counter at MK Seibu. I have problem of large pores on the nose and both sides of the nose. I tried similar products such as Clarins, Channel, Kose, Estee Lauder in the last few years and none of them work. Most of them have "instant" minimizing the pore effect BUT such effect only last less than 30 minutes. Although this YSL pore refiner works for the first 30 minutes, it returns to oily skin surface and obvious pores. Yes, it is no doubt that it has instant effect but every users who suffer from large pores MUST want somthing with "continue" effect, right!? This product may help for 30 minutes only. Worth or not, it depends....

I got that from YSL counter at MK Seibu in late May 2012. The texture is smooth and comfortable enough for quick massage in the morning and evening. It has no instant effect on reducing the dark circle. But the smoothing effect and moist do its job to my eyes. Since the texture is too smooth, massaging eyes turns to be a happy time to me. In terms of the over prices of YSL products, this eye creme is quite affordable item but the trade off is that no significant effect to serious panda eyes and fine lines.

The texture of the serum is light gel and great for massaging the eyes (too thick or too light gel is not easy to be massaged) Although 15mL looks little, it is good enough for using over months. So, it's worth to have one as a massgae tool in your skincare corner.

I got that from LAB, Queensway, Admiralty. As part of my AM/PM routine skin care, I use it after applying fresh's Creme Ancienne INFUSION, then followed by fresh's soy face cream. In terms of hydration, I personally don't think it work well on "continue" but instant hydration. But I like its strong cucumber smell. While both soy face cream and soy face serum contain amino acids, I doubt the effectiveness of this key element. For the firming effect, I feel nothing about it. In summary, the packaging, texture, and smell of this product is great but it may not successfully solve one's thirsty skin.

I got that from fresh counter at LAB, Queensway, Admiralty. The selling point of this cream may be the texture and smoothing effect.

I got that from the fresh counter located at LAB, Queensway, Admiralty. Frankly speaking, I don't think it can work on my combination skin type in the evening. It work fine in the morning but not well in the evening (even though I remove my light makeup with makeup remover, then use it for second clean). I am fans of foam cleanser and this soy face cleanser seems generating less foam than I expected.

I visited the fresh counter at LAB, Queenway, Admiralty. BA was friendly and polite. At the beginning, I targeted to buy the rose water as my new toner at home. After the BA's introduction of the function of Creme Ancienne, I decided to use a more function toner - CREME ANCIENNE INFUSION. Although it costed me HK$840(!?), I have no regret on it. I enjoy every single drop of this infusion because of (a) the smoot texture; (b) lovely rosy smell; (c) the claming effect; (d) the beautiful package and white glass bottle; and the last be not least (e) the gradually improvement of my sensitive skin and turning red after face washing.

As recommended by the BA at Sincere Department Store, Sheung Wan, I use it as a toner mask with leed cotton pad. It slightly improve my dry cheek.
