how do you use this tool? I usually use this when my pores are open, gently scrape the round side over areas where my white heads are most prone to develop. Apply a pressure where needed. The flat side is for blackheads but I don't find it very effective, I can actually remove blackheads with the round side too. Don't forget to clean the tool with some alcohol when finished. I also have the extractor with lance from Sephora but it doesn't work that well for me.I've been in love with certain Boscia products lately and picked some up for my upcoming asia trip...
Boscia Clear Complexion kit with botanical blast. The size is perfect for my travel! Comes with cleanser, toner, serum for complexion treatment, and daytime cream with SPF15. My skin was being moody the last few weeks and I've experienced some breakouts. I started using this kit last week and its clearing up nicely!
Boscia Normal to Oily kit, contains cleanser, toner, day and night cream. I have the full size toner in this kit and like it very much. This will serve as my backup kit to the one above.
Bosica Clarifying Detox Mask. Its a light weight mask, I liked the sample so went back and got the full size version. I'm packing this for my trip too
I finally got around to using the Laneige Water Bank Sheet Mask...
25ml packets with two sheets in each pack to cover top and bottom
I can't say that I'm a fan of these masks. They sting my face when I use it! Not sure what's causing it to do that. I had a similar reaction to the VOV sheet masks :(
Sabon released a organic line! They gave out a sample pack that comes with a 20% discount coupon towards your next purchase...
I went in to wash my hands with the new organic scrub and tried the lotion. It doesn't smell as pleasant as their regular scrubs and lotion but it does the same job plus its all natural. Read more about the new line at their site.I finished watching the Sopranos!
One of the best series I've ever watched, its smart and addictive.Lazy me, still haven't packed or booked all the hotels yet =X Leaving this Sunday! Agh! Picking up the JR Railway pass tomorrow, that's something off the list I guess haha.
The skincare from Boscia sounds so good! I'm glad it's working so well for you =D
ReplyDeleteThe sample pack from Sabon is packaged so prettily!
Boscia = Yum!
ReplyDeleteHave you tried the Laniege WaterBank cream? Old Cow got me some, and now it's my HG for long haul flights!
Make sure your hotels have internet access so you can continue to update us!
Oooh, the Boscia stuff sounds nice! I tried the detox mask and wasn't that impressed by it though... maybe I'll poke around the brand a bit more though.
ReplyDeleteHave fun on your trip!!
I am sooo ecstatic about your travels.
ReplyDeleteIsn't it fun (and tiring) all the planning --and getting all these cute travel kits is so ace for on board fun, and just a lil self TLC while on vacay.
Be sure to blog and keep us posted on your journey, and lots of photos! photos and photos!!!
You're going to have an amazing time, and see you when you get back and we'll rendezvous in NY! or Canadia!
i have the exact same extracter. I just use the thinner side cause like you said the other side is kinda useless. I just apply pressure on blackheads/whiteheads and it pops right out.
ReplyDeleteah Boscia skincare sounds so nice!
ReplyDeleteOMG, sabon packaging looks soadorable.I love the clean package, and simple design ,geezz want them'allll
ReplyDeletehmmm boscia! i want to try some now!
ReplyDeletehaha i have that torturing device tool for black/white head too, everyone keeps asking me what that was :p

ReplyDeleteI was wondering how you extracted. That tool looks nifty!
I adore Boscia skincare. I have the Balancing Facial Tonic, the Vital Daily Moisture SPF 15, the Purifying Cleansing Gel, and the Clarifying Detox Mask. I love them all!
ReplyDeletethe Boscia look so nice!
ReplyDeletei bought the extractor a yr ago but returned it cause i didn't know how to use it and was lazy to find out. haha. omg woman! start packing and booking hotels! have a safe trip! gonna miss ya girl! =D
ReplyDeleteHave fun M~! I'm so jealous that you get to travel XD
ReplyDeletethe round side works well for whiteheads, the flat side does work well for me for blackheads. though i can't get all of them. so the melon scooper one with the lance sucks? i need a vacuum for blackheads!
ReplyDeleteAww I wanna try some of the Boscia skincare products now. In a perfect world, noone would have blackheads or whiteheads. :P
ReplyDeleteoh i love that boscia pack, i have it too. you'll love it!
ReplyDeleteMona, have a safe and fun trip! :)

ReplyDeleteAwww okay the metallthingy is for removing white heads! I'd never find it out on my own!xD
ReplyDeleteI have never had any Boscia products yet, but the skincare kit seems to be really nice!
ReplyDeleteWhat a pity, you didn't like the Langei mask. I prefer sheet masks than cream masks somehow.
mmhh boscia products. i want to try that brand but poor now.
ReplyDeletei tried e-mailing you but maybe it was the wrong one. my e-mail is stillmarionette@gmail.com. we decide a date to do stuff.
