Fresh Skincare with Skin Ergetic from Biotherm

Ladies living in this century are very independent. Most of us lead a hectic lifestyle looking after our families and work, and we also have to take care of ourselves, ensuring we still look fresh and good everyday, hiding away the tiredness.

First sign of tiredness is always on the face, signs of fatigue like:
Loss of radiance
Uneven complexion
Visible pores
Unrefined skin texture
Roughness

Gosh, I think I have all of the above! =/

Quoted from Biotherm:
“One night’s sleep is not enough to recover, and this generation of women sleeps an average of one hour less than the preceding generation… Their faces look tired more often, and friends and family mention it to them. Such remarks are all the upsetting because, physically, they feel in top shape.”

The quote sounds so true on me! Every time after skincare and makeup, I always feel I’m on top form. But a few hours later, my face tends to look dull again. Sigh!

Fret us not!

Biotherm has recently developed a new skincare product, Skin Ergetic Serum. It’s all about FRESH skincare to achieve a skin looking fresh!

Why it’s fresh is because of the active ingredients used inside the formulation and it makes use of Fresh Skincare Technology.

Brocolli Extract!
Brocolli is one veg which contains a lot of health benefits, anti-oxidant functions and is able to induce defense systems. The main nutrients from broccoli are the extracts from its sprouts which are rich in Sulforaphane (active compound), which helps to product an anti-oxidant self-defense system.

Fresh Skincare Technology
Although broccoli extract is a powerful active ingredient in fighting skin fatigue, but when it is added to a skincare (watery texture, serum in this case), it becomes very unstable. Biotherm laboratories overcome this by packaging the broccoli extract into a capsule, tightly and freshly sealed. The concentrated broccoli extract will be released from the capsule into the serum in just one click during opening of the product.

How To Use
This technology ensures that the active ingredient added to the skincare is able to retain its optimum stability for 3 months, which is to say, the serum (after mixing with the broccoli extract in powdery form) expires 3 months after the date of opening.

To help me in remembering the date, there’s a sticker labeled behind the serum bottle for me to jot down the date of opening.

Taking about 2-3 drops are more than enough as a serum for my whole face. Any excess, I just massage and pat them onto my neck.

 

It comes in watery texture (just like any other serum), non-oily on my skin. Infact it is easily absorbed into the skin after the massage and leaves the skin feeling refreshed. Despite it contains broccoli extract, there isn’t any broccoli smell, it smells fruity and refreshing.

Other than just depending on this “Fresh” serum, taking a lot of vegetables and fruits are important as well. I’ll recommend vegetables which are in green (like broccoli) and fruits like , prunes, berries, purple grapes, kiwi (the yellow one) which are provide anti-oxidant purpose and rich in Vitamin C and E. These in turn helps to achieve a brighten-up skin and delay skin aging.

Of course, it’s always a good habit to see something in green for a minute after facing the monitor/TV for too long. This helps to rest our eyes!

That said, keeping a pot of plants in our rooms, work desks make our living/working environment so much livelier!

Quoted from Biotherm:
Live Ergetic. Stay Ergetic. Skin Ergetic

Been using it continuously for a week, I didn’t see an obvious brightening effect on my face, but I can feel my cheeks are slightly more moisturized and have turned less flaky. Moisturizers are able to absorbed more effectively into my skin.

Biotherm Skin Ergetic Serum is now retailing at SGD99 for a 50ml bottle, available at all Biotherm counters located in the departmental stores and Sephora.

Some Random Goodies Which I have Gotten Recently!

Here’s some of my buys, freebies, pressies since sometime ago!

Attended Biotherm Tea Party and got some doorgifts!
Had a small skincare samples exchange with a gf, she gave me some samples from Laneige.
Bought myself a copy of Women’s Weekly to get the GWP which was a Ginvera Jade Eye Roller (worth SGD18.90 iirc?) when the magazine was only SGD3.90! That was sucha great deal!


A friend came back from HK and got me some gifts for me and a few other girls. But as it was my birthday month, I was the first to choose which design/colour I like! And of course, for accessories like these, I chose pink!
 
My house inventory for Etude House Green Tea Nose Pack (If you’ve checked out my review on it, you’ll see how effective this is!) is depleting and I ordered another 30over pcs from Beauty Paparazzi. Was given a sample, Egg White Pack, looks good! I always love their prompt service, fast order taken in, fast payment verifcation, and never fails to update me when my parcel has been mailed out. The best thing is, their prices are the lowest so far!
I received a call from Lancaster one fine day, and was invited to go down for a skin diagnosis.
Upon my skin check ended, I was given some samples prescribed according to my skin type and problems!
On top of that, I was given a PVC bag (picture not posted) too!
 
 
Met a gf and she gave a pack of belated birthday presents!
Inside the pack, I found an eyeshadow which I saw it at Sasa sometime ago and always wanted to try it out!
There’s also a mascara (haha, I now have got ALOT of mascaras, but I LIKE!!), purple eyeshadow from O2 Skin, lipcare from Inuovi, blackhead peel off mask from Etude House and a black eye cream for my dark circles!
 

On the same day while on my way home, I dropped by Etude House and bought the powder puff and eyebrow brush! Got myself a free pen~ I have tried the eyebrow brush, it’s so gentle on my eyebrow skin, good! but for the powder puff, it was too big to fit into my Chanel loose powder. =.=


 
Then another gf of mine was blogging about CU Skin and recommended me to get a sample (through her) to try it out. Hope it’s good! Anyway, if you are interested, check out her blog! it’s all about the free stuff she has gotten! And if you’re lucky and in time, you may get some too!
 
On another day, I attended Touche’s 8th Anniversary Party held at Bar None. It was an event full of pampering for my nails, photoshots taken FOC, served with finger food and free flow drinks, enjoying magician shows!
Everyone enjoyed and went home with goodies bag from Touche!

Happened to be nearby CozyCot Ninkio Store recently and went up to redeem some stuff.
 
That’s all I have gotten recently~

Biotherm – White D-Tox [Bright-Cell] Press Launch



pics credit to Biotherm

Came back from the above press launch!
it was held at Tanglin Mall, Yantra restaurant, a perfect place for small functions!

Biotherm is going to launch a new range of whitening products, White D-Tox [Bright-Cell].


 
 
upon reaching, the invited guests were hanging around, getting to know one another, having drinks and snacks. i saw photographers taking photographs, must be for the related magazines!


 
anyway do you know what Biotherm mean?
Bio + Therm = Science + Water (Hydration)

below read: Brightness Starts From Genes!

 
here’s where the presentation is! everyone was seated in a cozy environment, i was feeling so excited while waiting for the presentation to start! ya, i am a skincare freak and am always excited to know about new product launches, and how these products are going to work for the ladies out there!



 
here’s a simple slide on the inner layers under our skin. this slide mainly talked about how pigmentation comes about. i believe pigmentation is a horror sight to many of ours, and as we age, pigmentation tends to appear, how sad right! so it’s a must for us to keep alook out for whitening products which can help to suppress/slow down the pigmentation appearance.


 

at the press launch, all of us were presented with some technical biological stuff which i will talk about it sometime when i do my review.
just a summary here,

melanin which is our body’s source of skin colour is originally in a translucent cocoon.
however over sometime when our skin is exposed to the light and polluted environment, the cocoon darkens and dark spots start to appear, skintone becomes dull or uneven.

a protein PMEL17 is the root cause which causes the melanin colouration. thanks to Biotherm R&D research team, they come up with a new range of products to solve this melanin colouration problem.

White D-tox [Bright Cell] range targets this problem on a cellular level. the ingredients used inside this range will help to fade away dark spots and at the sametime helps new skin cells to surface.

one of the main ingredients in White D-Tox [Bright Cell] range is peas which are oxidising.


after the presentation, everyone was allowed to try on this new range! cool!

i have tried the whole range and i must say the results are *thumbs up* =)
as i have mentioned earlier, i will do a review for each of the product later on.

but right now, let me share with you this interesting product in this range.
it’s the Tri Roll-On Concentrate Anti-Marks + Anti Dark Spots!
iirc, it’s SGD 89 at the counter! but wait, this product is not yet launched! but it’s going to launch in March 2010!




 
the texture is not those thick creamy type, but it’s more like gel-watery, very light on the skin, non-sticky, non-oily.

 
gad wanted to show you the brightened skin after massage, but too bad, my camera and the lightings are not capable enough! arrgh!

 
here’s the whole range of White D-Tox [Bright-Cell],

the makeup base, you will sure to see a more radiant glowy effect after makeup!
i recall that i ever attended a workshop on an older range focusing on the makeup base, the effects were obvious! the makeup artist actually applied half of the model’s face so as for us to see the difference using and without using their makeup base!

Biotherm has been very generous! i walked home with their products from White D-Tox [Bright-Cell] range! and lke what i have mentioned earlier, i will be doing a review of this range and share with you the results!

Biotherm White D-Toc [Bright-Cell]

range of skincare products will be launched island-wide on March 2010
Not to be missed!

i am so regretted that i didn’t answer the question! i didn’t know what’s wrong with me, just didn’t want to answer when i know the answer to the question! i could have won myself a 7ml serum!!

Biotherm Vivo Skin Preview

I was feeling so happy to receive an invite from CozyCot to the Biotherm Vivo Skin Preview!


 

the staff were all very friendly and helpful.
the layout of the preview location was perfect, really looked like a lab!
we were given a short introduction on their products from Skin Vivo.




 

the 4 main skincare were,





 

some photos which were taken during the preview.






We were allowed to had a try on the new products. i actually tested the 4 products on the back of my hand, fine lines were visibly reduced, skin looked fairer, non-greasy and had a powder fragrance. the fragrance reminded most of us of the baby powder.
SA told us they had actually invented this fragrance so as to fit into the Skin Vivo which was said to achieve great skin like a newborn baby!
 


and i noticed something unique in their packaging. it’s the Braille system specially for the blind.



 
there were some pretty snacks and drinks for all of us!


my doorgift!!
 
i enjoyed myself during the preview, felt so excited to be one of the first few to experience this new range of products.
many thanks to CozyCotBiotherm for inviting me!  :bliss:
i definitely want to attend more preview from Biotherm so as to be the first few to experience their products, and to share the experience with my friends, tempting them to buy!!  :lol:
