Recent purchases

My makeup is running very low, looking for cheaper alternative than my top two favourite that are Renaissance's Soft Nutri Cleanse (SGD44 for 250ml) and Clarins's Water Purify One Step Cleanser with Mint Essential Water for Combination or oil skin (SGD40 for 200ml, btw I can no longer find this in Clarins's website, wondering whether they have phase this product, oh my god!!).

In the end, found a product call Plante System Cleansing Lotion And Make Up Remover 200ml at Changi General Hospital's pharmacy. It costs SGD29.90 (After buying, saw this product at Watson which I can have 3% rebate for POSB card).

Description of it: This micellar water facilitates make up removal and cleanses impurities from the skin, while preserving skin lipids. The combination of active ingredients has a more effective action on the skin; raspberry extract provide the soothing and sebum regulating properties, the extract of chamomile softens and the P.E.S plant complex derived from sea-buckthorn, green tea and olive tree has natural regenerating and anti-free radical properties. Skin is make up free and cutenous barrier is preserved.

Use direction: Apply morning and evening to the skin with the aid of a cotton pad and cleanse the entire face. No need to rinse.

Currently, trying it and will give a detail review after a few more try.

Finally I bought Cetaphil's Oily Skin Cleanser (after many years of wondering whether to buy or not). It costs less than SGD18 at Tampines Polyclinic. But now http://www.mypharmacy.com.sg/ (a virtual pharmacy of Changi General Hospital) is selling at SGD15.74 but there will be a delivery charge so guess is about the same. Plante System Cleansing Lotion And Make Up Remover can also be found at the site but same selling price. Have not try Cetaphil's Oily Skin Cleanser but once I try it, will write a review on it.

Description of it: Cetaphil oily skin cleanser removes surface oils, dirt and makeup without leaving skin tight or overly dry. It is non-comedogenic, so it won't clog pores and rinses clean without leaving any irritating residue.

This product contains: Purified water, PEG-200 Hydrogenated Glyceryl Palmate (and) PEG-7 Glyceryl Cocoate, Sodium Lauroyl Sarcosinate, Acrylates/Steareth-20 Methacrylate Copolymer, Glycerin, Sodium Laureth Sulfate, Butylene Glycol, Phenoxyethanol, Masking Fragrance, Panthenol, PEG-60 Hydrogenated Castor Oil, Methylparaben, Disodium EDTA

Use direction: Massage a small amount onto wet skin. Rinse.
Next on my wish list is moisturizer, still thinking what to buy.... As my face's condition is still about the same so really need a lightweight kind.
