You saw the adverts of Laneige and Bio-essence on television. Not too long ago, everyone was going crazy over facial masks, those that comes in a sheet… it seems that the creamy type has gone obsolete.
Cosmetic giants are constantly thinking of ways to make their products useful 24/7 and some of them pioneers have already introduced the sleeping mask, one that you don’t have to wash off, it comes in a translucent liquid and you leave it on your face overnight.
Well, recently, I tried the Bio-Essence one (Hydra Spa Energy). Not great. When it gets dryer on the face, it becomes lumpy and it leaves a mess on your pillow. Not much to sacrifice if you’ve great results the next day, but it really doesn’t make a difference for me, at least. I still prefer a good old moisturiser. Overall, will not be tempted to try on any liquid sleeping mask.

Who does not love a great pair of legs? Ladies out there who has the perfect Hollywood legs, you would never understand this. A lot of us who ain’t got it, are bothered on a daily basis by common problems on our legs such as spider veins, cellulite, scars, stretchmarks, you name it. So, we try plenty of products to see if anything helps at all. Of course, treatment of those problems usually take a lot of hard work and time, even if creams do work.
Short term solution: – Those who have more obvious imperfections would be desperate to cover-up especially on skirt days and bikini days and I’m sure you would agree with me, if you’re one of them, you have tried more than one cover-up product. Others are just being perfectly normal vain-pots who buy body gloss, body foundations to make themselves look extra good.
PALMER’S introduced this Smoothing and Perfecting Leg Gloss not long ago, comes in a 4.4oz tube, claims to be a tinted moisturizer that adds gloss and imparts a satiny smooth finish. I’ve used this product twice and stopped ever since. Tinted moisturisers are usually light and blend into the skin very well. This is kinda thick and does not blend in very well to the skin – NOT recommended especially if you have very pale skin… it comes in one colour, looks like a bronzy cocoa colour. When u smooth it on, you can see a big difference to your natural colour, I have slightly tanned skin, but it still comes off two colours. It’s also a mess trying to apply it.
Overall, the result is a very uneven, unnatural fake tan that you need to spend may be an hr just to even it out on both legs. Worst thing, the colour comes off when your skin touches white or light fabric. My linen shorts were stained and i couldn’t wash it off. Bad experience. Palmer’s has loads of good products, but this is just not one of them.
