I Love Fancl's Limited Edition Mild Cleansing Oil

Picture 1

I have been using Fancl's best seller, the Mild Cleansing Oil (MCO) for several years and love that it is really convenient and easy to use and helps to remove my makeups and sunscreen easily. It helps me to minimize the time it takes to remove makeup, while maximizing on skincare. Although it is an oil-based cleanser, it leaves behind no oily residue, because the oil uses nano-technology to break down makeup which washes away easily. 

On top of gently and thoroughly removing all makeup, MCO also helps refine the complexion. Using Meadow Foam Oil, it targets and clears keratin plugs from pores, enabling skin to become smoother and clearer with each use. MCO is formulated with a special Smooth Cushion Oil, which enables effortless application to minimize friction and also keeps skin moisturized by protecting skin’s powerful natural humectant, Pyrrolidone Carboxylic Acid (PCA). Additionally, Rosehip Oil reduces stress on skin during cleansing with gentle anti-inflammatory properties, enhancing skin smoothness.

The MCO is also really value for money and i usually finish a bottle in 2-3 months time. I have tried cleansing oil from other popular brands like DHC, Kose, Biore, Bio-essence and SK-II but still prefers my trusty Fancl MCO as it does not irritates my skin even when i'm having the occasional breakouts :)

I normally stock up on Fancl's limited edition design MCO the moment it is for sales as i love its lovely and cute design. I have just stocked up on Fancl's latest limited edition MCO last week and was given some samples to try after the friendly staff helped me to do a quick skin check. I have finished using the Lotion Light samples which is a moisturizing toner suitable for my skin condition and will be making a purchase as i love how my skin feels hydrated, comfortable and refreshed after i patted it lightly on my face and neck.

I have not been feeling well lately and have been spending lot of time at home and was feeling really bored. I was feeling better this week and was glad to spend the past 2 days hanging out with my best friend from my primary school days. It has been a long time since we last met up and we had alot of fun catching up, going shopping and singing Karaoke at Partyworld :) I discovered a lovely song from Tanya Chua titled "Beautiful Day" thanks to my friend who was singing it and can't wait to try singing the song during my next Karaoke session.

The drama was also known as "The Shrewd Wife" when it was shown in Channel U this year and i enjoyed watching the drama and has been looking forward to the movie version to be shown in local cinemas. Those who have been left frustrated by the drama's open ending will finally get to find out who the main character Xie Anzhen will choose 4 years later after her divorce from her cheating husband Wen Ruifan. Who are you rooting for? I'm of course hoping Anzhen will choose the charming and faithful Lan Tienwei who has always been there for her during her devastating divorce and betrayal from her ex-husband Ruifan. You can check out the exciting movie trailer and lovely song by one of my favorite singers 郁可唯 featured in the movie below:

Korean Drama "Ghost" Is My Top Favorite Drama For 2012 (Spoiler Alert)

photo251530

Korean drama "Ghost" brought twist after twist in its exciting plot and finally ended in Korea last week. According to AGB Nielsen Media Research on the 10th, SBS drama "Ghost" rated 12.2% on its final episode. This is 0.7% lower than the previous record. It is such a pity that such a good quality and entertaining drama with a great cast did not bring in the high ratings that it definitely deserved. Hubby and i finished watching the final 2 episodes during the weekends and was really satisfied with the happy ending and am glad that the writer did not kill off any of my favorite characters comprising of Park Ki Young, Kwon Hyuk Joo and Yoo Gang Mi in the drama. They really make a good team and i love seeing Hyun Joo and Ki Young working together to fight the baddies in the show. I'm glad 2 other members (Lee Tae Gyoon and Byeon Sang Woo) of the cyber crime squad also joined them in rounding up all the baddies in the end and were not the suspect spies in the team :)

I'm really impressed with the writer for coming up with such a good script. Hubby and i really enjoyed watching the drama with its fast-paced and interesting cases and the main casts did a great job of portraying their characters especially main lead So Ji Sub who acted 2 characters (Park Ki Yong and the late Kim Woo Hyeon). Eom Gi Joon also did a great job portraying the main villain, the chilling and cold-blooded Jo Hyeon Min. Even though Jo Hyeon Min killed so many people in the show we still can't help feeling sad in the end when he realized that he had killed the woman who truly loves him and was pregnant with his child. He had shown no regrets at all for committing all those evil deeds and killing so many lives out of revenge but Park Ki Young really delivers the final blow to him by revealing in the end that his ex-girlfriend Shin Hyo Jeong was pregnant with his child and had decided not to reveal Hyeon Min was the true murderer of Nam Sam Woon in the end. Jo Hyeon Min had mistakenly killed her for betraying him and he could not accept the truth! I really enjoyed the final showdown between Park Ki Young and Jo Hyeon Min.

I also love how the drama highlights the harm the internet can bring to its users if used in the wrong ways and raise public awareness of cyber crime through the various cases shown. I hope fellow fans of the show have enjoyed watching the drama as much as i did ;) For those who are new to the drama, you can read more about it from my previous post (http://ladyjansneverland.blogspot.sg/2012/07/korean-drama-ghost.html) and give it a try. I look forward to more great dramas from the writer of "Ghost". Do check out this interesting article i found online about the drama:

Well Made Drama Ghost - Whats The Secret?

photo251447

SBS TV drama "Ghost - Drama", a cyber investigate, ended on the 9th in popularity.

"Ghost - Drama", captivated viewers from the beginning while raising the alarm about cyber crime.

In the midst of the conflict between genius hacker Jo Hyeon-min and police officer Kim Woohyeon, this drama showed how careless comments can lead DIDOS programs as well as hackers to attack the nation and how it can affect the network and long pole.

It showed at the same time, the danger caused by one virus and the scariness behind cyber crime.

The drama shocked viewers in the beginning with the set up of Woo-hyeon dying and then Ki-yeong coming back as Woo-hyeon then brought out curiosity in the middle of the drama regarding the spy in the police force and went through with Kim Woohyeon and Jo Hyeon-min's mental war. The storyline was well made-up with twist after twist and it didn't' try to force in any romance in between but focused on the investigation point. It doesn't mean there wasn't any romance in it.

The little bit of romance in the drama was only added in so slightly so that it didn't stand out or break the wave. The romantic scenes added as spice to the serious drama. There was a love-line between So Ji-sub and Kwak Byeong-gyoo and Kim Byeol.

The cast did an excellent job as well. So Ji-sub pulled off two roles and Eom Gi-joon portrayed the cold and murderous characteristics of Jo Hyeon-min with just the right amount of density. Kwak Byeong-gyoo's performance in creating the character of Kwon Hyeok-joo, a crazy character to which he added his own personalities.

"Ghost - Drama" raised the alarm about the seriousness of cyber crime and didn't lose its track on the main theme. It chased two hares at once and perfected the idea of an investigations drama.
