Shu Uemura Ultime8 Sublime Beauty Cleansing Oil
One of my favourite products ever! It is such a good cleansing oil. It gives a really good clean while leaving the face soft and smooth after. I don't feel dried out like some of the products I've tried previously.

The mascara was pretty good but in the summer it's a no for me. I tend to get really oily lids and on one side I got raccoon eyes. Overall, the mascara is quite good for drugstore level. I do like Maybelline's formulation for mascaras. It was also to easy to remove without leaving any residue behind. -
Garnier SkinActive Moisture Bomb Beauty Sheet Mask with Hyaluronic Acid + Vitamin C

How can I not love a face mask ??
The mask was very moist, the amount of serum on it was generous. I always cut out the eye holes a little bigger as I find them a bit too close for comfort. However, relaxing mask - great excuse for me to give myself a little TLC over the weekend. I wore my mask and vegged out on the couch and watched a little TV. After I just rubbed in the extra serum left on my face and was able to throw the mask into the little compost bin in my kitchen!

The Micellar water was OK, it did the job well but it did sting my eyes a little. I didn't mind trying this - I definitely will keep using it though.
I will use it for a longer period of time and see how it will affect my dullness. For now, it works well to remove the make up and everyday ick of being outside in the heat with a mask on!

Thayers Alcohol-Free Witch Hazel Unscented Face Toner

To be candid - Toner is always a step I skip as most of the time, I don't make time to do my whole skincare routine and I find toner is the step I always neglect. However, for this review - I did my best to try it for about 1.5 weeks straight. I did find this toner to be very nourishing - or at least help with the hydration steps in my routine.
I started off with another product I am reviewing in the cleanser step, then I skipped my oil cleansing step and instead subbed the toner in. It did definitely help with adding this 2nd step into my cleansing routine before moving forward with my serum and night cream. I knew the hype around this product and I am happy to say I am a fan now.

FLAWLESS CLEANSE: FACIAL CLEANSER & MASSAGER, ROSE GOLD

The tool itself is OK. I think I expected more from it or more like the clarisonic which had more motion. It pulsated lightly and is very gentle but I didn't find that it moved or cleaned very much. It couldn't even foam up my cleanser. I did find for what it is worth that it's not a bad purchase. I think I just prefer something more heavy duty. The brush did come with 4 modes and it helpful if I wanted a light massage for facial cleansing in the shower. -

I am already an avid user of Batiste Dry Shampoo. I think it is one of the best ones available in the market. I was excited to try this as it contains a few of my favourite things - chamomile and green tea. It works very well just as expected but the smell - it is SO good. The scent is light and refreshing - can almost use it as my perfume. My tip for dry shampoo is to use it at night. Spray and brush through / tousle lightly, the the next morning - great fluffy hair with no residue! -

If you're looking for a unqiue, fun and quick game, Sink N' Sand is a pretty good choice.
Kinetic Sand already is so fun on it's own, having a game which incorporates the sand is a great idea. I love the theme of it being a quicksand trap!
The set up is cute and able to set it up together with the kids, they helped with inserting the sticks while, I put the actual base together. Another bonus is, you don't need much to start and learn the game fairly quickly. Clean up is also a breeze since with Kinetic Sand, there's not much of a mess! Also the game is designed that the sand falls into the game base which is where you will house the sand when the game is over anyway.
However, I found 3 cons while playing this game.
1. This type of Kinetic Sand is not as fine as the individual ones sold (i think) it's more grainy to me so it's a bit harder. When I try to push the mold into sand to form the mold design, I pushed really hard and I still barely made a design, so definitely a job for a stronger little kid haha.
2. The sand near the edges since there's no support anymore, doesn't fall like how the sand would expect, instead a whole chunk just plops down. It happened near the end and the kids were a bit sadden by that part.
3. Sunk 'n Duncan during pack up does not actually fit inside the base. I took it apart to store it, and if you put Duncan inside, it pops the top up a little and then the lid isn't secure. Unfortunately, due to his lasso, I had to sacrifice him and put him aside in a little baggie for storage, away from his friends.
Other than that, the game is pretty fun for the kids, they can play by themselves actually but of course better together with family and friends. They can also play it as a roleplay too!

The gift is only good for a very particular niche. At first, I put it in the hall waiting for the intended recipient to open it. However, they were a bit put off at first as it would randomly giggle and make noises when no one was around. I thought maybe the movement down the hall may have triggered it. However, I offered it to my niece after. My niece took it and she really like it. She kept pressing the button to make its eyes move etc. It's also quite sturdy and it holds a few small trinkets she would like to carry. I also received the Hello Kitty one which is adorable. -
