Found new bag cleaning shop in Tokyo

It's called Shangri-la shoes and bag reviver. The price is more expensive than Singapore's Colorwash, but I guess I'll just send my bag for a nice wash and not carry it back to Singapore.

Thinking of going down in November after my GMAT is over.

Fancl Mild Cleansing Oil is still the best

After trying so many different cleansing oil, none cleans better and easier than Fancl's MCO. I just threw away SK2's cleansing gel after failing to wash away my foundation thoroughly. Luckily it is just the sample size.

Today's regime (Thur)

This morning's regime

1. Kingo Kingo Natural Cosmetic Cream Soap
2. Kose Sekkisei Supreme Refining Lotion, 230ml $95
3. Clarins UV Plus HP Corrector, 10ml $77
4. Clinique dramatically different moisturizing Gel, 50ml $40

+ Clarins Eye Lift 15ml $68 & Serum 20ml $82

Remarks:
My skin seems to explode with oil after using Kose black mask. I guess I'll stop using it after the tube is done. So far I'm very pleased with Kingo Kingo, a Japanese brand which uses volcanic ash. It's actually a paste-like cream which you use the net to foam, then use it to cleanse the face. I find my skin less oily and pores reduced. You bet I'll continue to purchase this when I go Japan :)

Night regime

1. Kingo Kingo Natural Cosmetic Cream Soap
2. SK2 Toning lotion
3. Kose Sekkisei Supreme Refining Lotion, 230ml $95
4. Clinique dramatically different moisturizing Gel, 50ml $40
5. Clinique Moisture Surge 50ml $73

Remarks:
Hopefully the application of Moisture Surge will reduce the oily problem. Waiting for my Kose lotion to finish so I can use SK2 miracle water. Unsure about using my Diorsnow...

No longer in love with Body Shop cleanser, don't like the moisturizing effect. Moisturizers also made my skin more dehydrated. I'd decided to go Takashimaya to replace both items.
