MY PASJEL CHERRY TENDER CREAM REVIEW

I was 18 years old when I had chicken pox. I stayed for 5 days in the hospital because of that. I had pox *everywhere*. There are lot of pox in my body that I can't barely count. I had no idea how horrible I looked until one day I saw my face in a morror. It was a bad case with pox sites inside my eyelids, mouth and all over my girly bits. It really feels uncomfortable and it is so itchy that I really want to scratch it with my nails. I didn't have a fever until a few days after it started. I didn't find that oatmeal baths and calamine lotion helped much--basically, the only time that I am not scratching it is whenever I'm asleep. 

After weeks of waiting, the pox turned in scab. During that time, I felt like this scabs will stay in my body for the rest of my life. Out of maybe 200 pox on my face, I was only left with 20 scars, 3 on each of my hand, 3 in my right shoulder and 5 on my back. And you can notice it immediately because it is dark.

Since then, I became shy and aloof with my friends and some of my friends are not walking with me anymore because they are scared of chicken pox. And the worst is, I already have 20 scars on my face and pimples are also growing on my cheeks and forehead. I felt helpless with this. I never went out of the house after that. I don't want to talk to anybody because I think they are not looking at my eyes, they are only looking at my chicken pox scars and pimples. 

Since then, all I want to do is to remove the pimples in my face as well as my scars. I checked the home remedies to get rid of the scars and I tried everything but I still have this pimple and scars.

Then one day a soap caught my attention named Pasjel Cherry Tender Night Facial Cream. Online says that the cream has ingredients that could treat acne scars and any other kind of scars. Since I am very desperate to remove this mess in my face. I purchased 4 boxes of Pasjel Cherry Tender Night Facial Cream. And as soon as I got this, I already tried it. I don't want to waste a day not using this cream. 

I only used the cream for a week, I was surprised with the outcome. My pimples got dry and my chicken pox scars lighten. 

Everything that I am expecting from this cream happened after 2 weeks of using it. All my pox marks are no longer visible because it's color is even on my body. Then my pimples are now gone and the pimple marks are starting to slough off. Plus, this Pasjel Cherry Tender Night Facial Cream made my skin whiter than before and it also gave moisture on my skin. I had this kind of skin for few weeks, what more if I am going to use this cream for months. I have never been this happy all my life.

Griya Kelapa Coconut Lime Hand Cream

This hand cream with rice protein, coconut and lime softens and nourishes dry hands. I have very dry hands and I go through tubes of hand cream like a mad woman. A small tube lasts me about two weeks, and then it’s empty. I am already a third in this Griya Kelapa Coconut Lime Hand Cream but I really try to use as little product as possible, because it smells soooo good and I want to enjoy this hand cream for as long as I can. The mix of coconut and lime – all-natural of course – really smells amazing. And the hand cream also softens and moisturizes my hands as promised. It doesn’t necessarily do a better or worse job than other hand creams, but I am giving it extra points just for the smell. What can I say, I’m a sucker for products that smell nice.

Price: 24.90 CHF at Bali Cosmetics.

Conclusion

I bet you already saw this coming, but I am pleasantly surprised by the products. By the hand cream, obviously, but also by the two hair oils. So I apologize for all those times that I said how awful I thought hair oil was and how terrible it was for people with my hair type. I have to set the record straight: hair oil doesn’t necessarily make your hair look greasy and even people with my hair type can use it to get healthier hair. So yes, I was wrong. But if it gets me better, stronger hair in the end, then I don’t mind being wrong :-)

Estée Lauder Advanced Night Repair serum

After seven years of intense research on the effects of lack of sleep on our skin, Estée Lauder has tweaked the formula of their famous Advanced Night Repair serum so that it now combats skin aging even better. The research showed that poor sleep or lack of sleep visibly accelerates skin aging. So what used to be just a scary hypothesis has now been proven to be a fact. Help! It appeared that the skin cells of the bad sleepers in the research didn’t recover as well during the night as those of the test subjects that did get enough sleep (7 to 8 hours). The skin of the bad sleepers also suffered from 30 percent more moisture loss. And thirsty skin that doesn’t regenerate at night ages faster of course. But luckily now there’s the new and improved Estée Lauder Advanced Night Repair serum. Of course the serum can’t miraculously give you a good night’s rest, but what it can do thanks to the new ChronoluxCB technology is boost cell renewal and cell regeneration, and therefore counter the aging effects caused by a lack of sleep. And just like the original version, the new Advanced Night Repair serum from Estée Lauder also contains antioxidants and hyaluronic acid that fight skin aging and help keep the skin healthy. So don’t let worries about skin aging keep you up at night, because Estée Lauder can now keep your skin in top condition, even after a short night.

I’ve been using the new Advanced Night Repair serum for just over a week now, and seriously, I can already see a difference. I am a terrible sleeper, but even after a rough night my skin looks fresh and full. I might not always feel very awake, but at least now you can’t tell anymore from my skin. The new Estée Lauder Advanced Night Repair serum has been available since mid-August in 30 and 50 ml for respectively 92 and 140 CHF. For 150 CHF you can now also buy a special limited-edition version of the Advanced Night Repair serum with a matching Pink Ribbon Charm to support the 2013 Breast Cancer Awareness Campaign.

Last but not least there was the Marionnaud corner with products from the Marionnaud house brand. The Marionnaud house brand has a skin care line, a make-up line and also a nail polish collection. Especially the new Rouge Démesure lip stick colors for fall drew my attention, and the new Marionnaud Nail Lacquer colors for the holiday season also looked very promising. That glittery nail polish was really screaming my name…

I thought all the rooms were fantastic and I loved how Marionnaud chose to present all the brands and products. They really came up with a unique concept for this event, and I am so happy that I got to be there to experience it. Two thumbs up for this event!

Estée Lauder Modern Muse eau de parfum

Modern Muse is Estée Lauder’s newest fragrance, inspired by Estée Lauder’s vision of a modern muse. A woman with natural charisma and spontaneity who inspires the people around her. Unlike most perfumes, Estée Lauder Modern Muse doesn’t have a top note, a heart note and a base note, but instead it has two accords. First you have the floral accord with jasmine, mandarin, honeysuckle and lily. And then you have the woody accord with patchouli, vanilla, amber and musk. So Modern Muse has that same duality that you find in the personality of a modern 21^st century woman. And because Modern Muse smells both floral and woody, it’s a scent that will appeal to a lot of women. I definitely liked the smell and I fell in love with it after the first sniff.

The Estée Lauder Modern Muse eau de parfum will be available at the end of October in 30, 50 and 100 ml for respectively 68 CHF, 98 CHF and 138 CHF.

Nacha Naturals Bali Hair Oil

The Nacha Naturals Bali Hair Oil is, as the name states, another hair oil. Well damn. But since I gave the first hair oil a chance, I decided to give this one the benefit of the doubt as well. The combination of jojoba oil, sesame oil, olive oil, avocado oil and wheat germ oil with lavender, sage, chamomile, cedar wood and rosemary should stimulate hair growth and prevent hair loss. Now that sounded like music to my ears! My hair is thin, fine and I don’t have a lot of it, so I was very excited to start using this hair oil. You just have to warm it up, massage it into your scalp, leave it on for at least 20 minutes and rinse it out with shampoo.

 I use 3 spoonfuls of oil for one treatment

I have been using the Nacha Naturals Bali Hair Oil once a week for four weeks now, together with the Blue Stone Botanicals Traditional Balinese Tonic for Hair & Scalp. An hour or two before I get in the shower I massage the product into my scalp and I just let it sit. And then I wash it out. I was happy to discover that my hair doesn’t feel any greasier afterwards and that it doesn’t get greasy any faster in the days that follow either. I honestly expected the worst, because the Nacha Naturals Bali Hair Oil really looks and feels like olive oil. But luckily my fear was ungrounded. And the smell? Oh gosh, it’s so lovely! The essential oils in the formula really are a feast for your nose. I don’t notice any changes in my hair growth yet and I still find as much hair in my comb as before, but honestly, after only four weeks I’d say that’s to be expected. I will continue to use the Nacha Naturals Bali Hair Oil, and then hopefully in a few months’ time I will see a difference!

Estée Lauder Pure Color Molten Metals fall make-up

Last but not least I got to see Estée Lauder’s new Molten Metals fall make-up collection. The collection is inspired by big cities, architecture, metal and glass. In the products that translates into gorgeous metallics that melt on the skin, often with a shimmery finish. The Molten Metals collection has two brand new Pure Color Intense Eyeshadow Trio palettes: Arctic Zink (blues) and Beach Metals (peachy shades). There are also two new Pure Color High Intensity Lip Lacquers: Vinyl Rose (soft pink) and Hot Cherry (bright red). And on our nails we’ll be wearing one of the new Pure Color Vivid Shine Nail Lacquers this fall, nail polish with a chrome finish. Especially the anthracite-colored Smoked Chrome and the dirty pink Rose Gold are hot this season. I was really amazed by the intense look that Estée Lauder used for the Molten Metals campaign, so who knows, maybe I’ll get the products for that look and recreate it here on the blog. My fingers are definitely itching…
