Botanical Cells Skin Products

Botanical Cells Skin Care Product, or some call it Stem Cells, is one of the latest craze recently. It has been hailed as the secret to fair, vibrant and youthful looking skin.

So what exactly are botanical cells products?

They contain 100% of extracts from plants, meaning all ingredients are natural and they do not contain any unnatural chemicals which is so in most other skin care products. It also undergoes little or no processing. As most people know, there is always a complementary relationship between human and plant, and thus botanical cells products are always safe without side effects!

But what exactly is in these botanical cells products that gives it such a good healing effect?

Botanical Cells Product contains a high level of amino acids (the basic building blocks of protein), vitamins (especially C and E), and antioxidants. All these are core essentials to building up a good skin.

Amino Acids

Botanical Cells Product contains essential amino acids that cannot be synthesize by our body, like lysine, leusine and threonine. Lysine is needed for collagen synthesis as well as healthy surface of proteins and enzymes. Leusine is coded for DNA and is a crucial element inside proteins and enzymes. Threonine contributes to the rich protein contents needed in collagen and elastin.

Vitamins & Antioxidant

Vitamin C (L-ascorbic acid) is one of the relatively few topical agents whose effectiveness against wrinkles and fine lines is backed by a fair amount of reliable scientific evidence, so I need not say more. Vitamin E, an antioxidant, is vital in protecting skin cells from ultra violet light, pollution, drugs, and other elements that produce cell damaging free radicals.

Botanical Cells Products also contain a high level of Nucleic Acid, a core component of DNA, and helps to repair skin cells at genetic level, Lycopersicon Esculentum, which provides a rich supply of Lycopene and Carotenoid to provide tremendous antioxidant effect, immunopotency as well as heals wounds and scars.

Botanical Cells Products are not widely available, and are usually available only at beauty salons. I personally am using it, and it does help in controlling oil secretion, provide tightening to your face, and give your skin a smooth and vibrant look and feel. It helps in reducing wrinkle lines as well. Strongly recommended.

It is not cheap though, but I believe every cents is worth it. If you ask me where to get it, I can only reveal the beauty salon that I am patronising, but I believe there should be few others that are selling it.

The one that I went to is called True Shape, a nice, comfortable little shop located at The Adelphi Building, the building just opposite Funan. The unit is #03-03. You can call 63366596 for enquiry if you wish.

Cheers!...next coming up will be Majolica Cosmetics Products...Stay Tuned!

BRTC Perfect Blemish Balm (BB Cream) Review

Blemish Balm cream, short for BB cream, is the latest craze of the ladies, as it works magic in covering spots and blemishes on the face, as well as providing skin care. In short it is a foundation cum concealer that has skin care properties like SPF, skin regeneration and the reason why it is so popular is, it evens out the skin tone so well that everyone seems to be having good and glowing skin.

The product was originated in Germany and used by dermatologists to help patients who have gone through laser skin surgery soothe and regenerate the skin.

Soon after, Korean celebs started using the cream and a craze was born. Big companies then took the idea and turned it into a product widely available to the public. The new product is suitable for all skin types, especially those with sensitive and acne-prone skin.

With reviews collected from a number of friends on the latest craze of ladies, the BB cream, I would like to provide a review on the most popular BB cream - the BRTC Perfect Blemish Balm Cream.

This BB cream has a thick texture, and thus works well in evening out the skin tone and covering up spots and blemishes as it spreads out and blends into the skin easily. Dark eye circles can be covered up effectively. Its smell is fine, and works above average on oil control, though it is not the best for oil control. It provides fairly fair skin tone after application.

After prolonged usage, skin is visibly clearer and fairer, and it helps in containing oil production.

This tube cost about $45 Singapore dollars if you bought it in Korea, and around $70-80 Singapore dollars if you bought it from auction sites. Unfortunately, it is only available currently in Korea. You can check out this site http://www.brtc.co.kr/FrontStore/iGoodsList.phtml?iCategoryId=25 for reference.

Companies that currently carry the BB cream are mostly Korean and include the following:

• Bio Remedies Therapeutic Cosmetics (BRTC)
• Skin Food
• Missha
• Etude House
• The Face Shop

Those that can be found in Singapore - Skin Food, Face Shop and Missha, does not have good review as compared to BRTC.

Please note different skin tones and types may have different suitability to the products. Thus do try out a few brands!

Kin Mun Clinic Toa Payoh

This is a relatively popular skin clinic located at Blk 66 Toa Payoh Lor 4 #01-319, which is usually packed. Call 62566353 for appointment. You do not have to wait if you know which products you are buying.

I have used 3 of its products:

• Skin Renewal Cream
• Washing Gel
• Toner

Skin Renewal Cream - Effectively helps to reduce spots on your face after using it once per night for 2-4 weeks. It works like AHA and will cause peeling. I have used it and it really works!

Washing Gel and Toner - Used both together for oily skin. It helps to control oil production on your face and is pretty effective as well.

No more oily skin and spots!

Kose Sekkisei White Powder Wash Helps Oily Skin

I was having problem with oily skin since puberty, and had been unable to find a washing cream that can help to alleviate the problem. Recently, I was introduced to a relatively new product by Kose - Sekkisei White Powder Wash.

You can instantly feel your face rid of all the oil after using it, and after using it for a month plus, you can feel that the oil on your face is well-controlled.

Though it may be subjective, but it's no harm trying it!

Available at all major departmental stores at around $30+ per bottle.
