Have you ever wonder about getting those professional treatments for your skin by just doing it at home? Where to get them? Touch Beauty Malaysia is a leader in beauty & personal device care that offers a wide variety of beauty device that you can explore. From face massager, eyebrow trimmer, and many more. These kinds of tools help to enhance and give a better result for your skin and also skincare application. I can never have time to go to the spa, I'm always occupied with my business, family and especially my clingy son who follows wherever I go, haha. So I give myself a try of these 3 picks from Touch Beauty Malaysia.

All devices are wrapped up perfectly and shipping is very fast. Excellent! On every purchase, you will get a free towel, either pink or white that will be given randomly. I got my self the Microcurrent Facial Roller, Hot Cool Skin Device, & the Sonic Eye Device. Now let's get on to the review on each device.

. . . . . . . . . .
HOT/COOL SKIN DEVICE

This is a skin rejuvenation secret device that helps skin to look youthful and improve the skin. It is a Spa-grade anti-ageing technology. By just looking at it, I can tell that this device is very handy and easy to use. Its ergonomic shape & wireless feature can help users use it easily, anywhere & anytime. Unboxing the box, there is the device itself, a velvet pouch for travelling, a USB charger & a wiping cloth to wipe off the surface of the device after each use.

It is easily charged using any USB port that you have. I just charge it using my laptop, and within 1 hour, it is fully charged. The red button will start blinking when it is charged. It said that, after fully charged, this device can be used around 40mins.

It comes with one simple button. Simple hold for 3 seconds to turn it on. It will start with the Warm treatment (red light). The warming up took just seconds and the temperature will max up to 42 Celsius. The Hot temperature helps to replenish nutrients and maximizes absorption of moisturizers and provide deep hydration to the skin. It helps open up pores for better skincare absorption. Simple click again to turn on the sonic vibration while using the warm treatment (red & yellow light). This helps to enhance the rejuvenation process. Click for the 3rd time and it will turn into the Cool treatment. A blue light will appear. The cool mode is maxed 6c. This helps to diminish wrinkles & fine lines. It's very cooling & soothing. I really love it. It helps to close up pores too. Then click again to turn on the sonic vibration mode while using the cool mode (blue & yellow light).

The transition between warm & cool is very fast. You don't need to wait. I like that! When in the cool mode you can see these "cloudy" appear on the massaging surface. Pretty cool. I also love the water-dropped shape of the massage surface. It reaches out my whole entire face easily.

How I use it, I apply my moisturizer on to my skin. You can use it for serum, toner and other skincare too. Then turn on the device. 1st session is the hot treatment for 2.5mins. It actually has a self-timer which will alert you that the first session of 2.5min is done. The click again for the cool treatment for 2.5mins. Gently in a circular motion and let the skincare absorbs.

It has a built-in ventilation hole to make sure the temperature does not stay in the device.

After using it, simply wipe off any excess of your skincare to keep it clean. It comes with a black velvet pouch for traveling.

. . . . . . . . . .
SONIC EYE DEVICE

I always have puffy eyes due to lack of sleep and hours of working in front of the computer. This Sonic Eye Device helps to revitalize the delicate skin under the eyes. It helps to soothe & refresh the skin for a brighter appearance. It is specially made for facial and eye massage. It can also be used not only on the eye area but also to treat smile lines.

This device is very handy and fits right on the hand. It is battery operated, batteries do not include for the device. But you can simply purchase one normal AAA battery for this.

You can use the device to pick up eye cream or gel. This is great because you can avoid nasty bacteria on your products especially eye cream that comes in a jar. 1st, Apply the eye cream around the eyes, then gently apply the Sonic Eye Device around the eyes in outer motion. Press & hold for 10 seconds at points around the eye. Repeat 2-3 times. Then lastly, gently apply eye massager surf around your eyes 3-5 times. My illustration is a bit straight forward, I don't know how to make a curve shape for the arrow haha. The application should be rounded around the eye area ok! I was also impressed on how it depuff my eyes in just one application! As you can see from the image below, I do have eye bag problem, and after using it, it does reduce it abit!

. . . . . . . . . .
MICROCURRENT FACIAL ROLLER

Created by a famous beauty expert, Chiaki Murata. A fighting anti-ageing signs device that does not need any charging or even battery! It can be used for the whole body to help tighten skin, remove cellulite and helps to give you a slimmer face and body. Sounds interesting! All you need is to roll on targeted areas as shown.

It has a special V shape with 70 degrees lifting complex that helps tighten the skin. The rounded edge also moves 360 degrees for that lifting effect.

As you can see from the image below when you roll it, it kinda "pinched" to the centre to helps the lifting effect outwards.

Here is a demo on how to use it for the face area for a more slimming & lifting effect.

1. Moving upwards from the chin area to your jawline. The lower part of the edge will help to lift the double chin and lift your upper chin area.

2. The moving upwards to the part below your nose and lower lip upwards.

3. Then to the center part of your chin (cheekbone area) where the upper part of the roller under your eye area. Move upwards.

4. Sweep up to lift up sagging skin, starting from the cheek and towards the temple.

5. Then the eye area. The lower part will help to lift under the eye and the upper part will lift the eyebrow area.

6. The on the forehead area, simply roll upwards from the center to the upper head area.

7. You can continue using it on your neck area too.

Here is the before & after. As you can see my cheek area is less sagging and firmed up.

It can not only be used for the face as I show, but it can also be used for the leg, armpit & arm.

Overall I am loving each device that I got. My favorite has to be the hot cool massager. It is so relaxing & soothing. You can find out more products at their official website.

Clarisonic Cleansing System Mia Fit Review

Sabrina Tajudin November 18, 2016 Leave a Comment

I'm setteping my skincare game by including some cool device that I have been eyeing on for such a long time. After many generations of Clarisonic, finally I made my decision to try the latest one which is the Mia Fit that I got from Hermo Malaysia. So first I am going to give you my first impression when I first got the box with me. It comes in a orange white box, as you open it, the device is securly placed in the box for full protection. There were lots of manual and brochure in there that I have not yet read through. But basically the important part that read through is how to charge this things and how to place it together.

On the bottom layer contains all of the charger and also it comes with a Skin Illuminating Cleanser (1.0 oz.) that I also tested within the week for this review.

I love the USB Enabled Universal Voltage Charger, where you just need to place the Mia Fit on it and it will charge. You wont able to see how the baterry looks like as what I thought it is built inside the devide to prevent water from reaching through it. So yes this device can be use in the shower and it is 100% waterproof. Perfect!

During the first day I got, I charge this devide for 12 hours. I place the charge under my bed and it is really easy to use and reach whenever I needed it. This Clarisonic Mia Fit helpsto remove impurities, sunscreen and make up 6x better than your hands alone.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

AFTER 2 WEEKS VERDICT

I just put my Mia Fit in my bathroom, I use it during my evening cleansing routine. To my surprise, since the first day I charge it,until now, the baterry is still remains! I use their travel cleanser that comes in the box. It is the Sonic Radiance Cleanser.

Usually I will remove the cap and rinse the britstle with tap water. The brush head is the Radiance brush head. The britsels are made very soft to the touch. The bristles are made from non-porous material that will not harbor acne-causing bacteria with regular use. Non-porous material means that it cannot absorb liquid or gas. So it does not take away your cleanser white it is on it.

After that I put on the cleanser o top of it and turn it on. Click twice to increase the speed. Comes in 2 speed, 1 & 2. I never tried speed 2, i find that it is too harsh on my skin. The light number will indicate on the bottom part for you to see.

Here I demonstarte on how it foam up the cleanser when in touch with my skin. I also put some makeup on my hand on this demonstration to show you that it also helps take away all of the impurities in the skin.

As you can see there is a bit of a dirt on it. Simply rinse it with water and it removes completely. The head can be replace after it is worn out or after 3 months.

My verdict. On the 1st week of usgae I do find that it dries out my skin. But with aproper skincare routine and good mousturizer, it helps to keep my skin hydrated. This device has help me feel so much "cleaner" and I felt that my skincare absorb much more better with this proper cleansing method. I recommend you to use it during night time. 3 times a week if ou feel it is too hard on your skin. I use it daily and I find that it works best on me like that. Will continue to use it with other cleanser and see more differencede with this, as I find the cleanser it comes with does not really "wow" me. This device also comes with a two year manufacturer's warranty.

This Clarisonic Mia Fit retails for RM792.00 at Hermo Malaysia.

New Breena Beauty Brush | B212 Basic Eyeshadow & B216 Brow Definer

Sabrina Tajudin September 29, 2015 26 comments

Woohoo! I got an announcement to make! Breena Beauty have come out with more new brushes and this time it is eye brushes. This time around my brushes will have its own code number and name for easy reference. These 2 new brushes would be the most essential eye brushes every makeup lover should have. A basic eyeshadow brush and a brow brush.

The packaging remain the same only that we have now label it with different colored stickers and name on top. Each brush will be packed inside an individual box for that special and luxury feel! The fibers remain the same of course, cruelty free and no animal hair were used in making these brushes. Gold engraved brush name and logo placed lovely on the white wood handle.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Now for the first eye brush is this B212 Basic Eyeshadow brush. I have been back and forward with the factory for this specific eye brush. I could not find my self a fluffy and non-stiff type synthetic fibre brush. I design this brush to be semi-stiff but at the same time fluffy enough to help you blend your eyeshadow easily. The semi stiff function helps to hold up any product you are picking up. As you can see in the picture below, the brush holds up the product nicely and leaves any extra or fall out powder before you are applying it to your lid. This brush can also be use to apply your concealer around your face. It's a great brush for packing in product in your makeup routine.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

My holy grail brow brush. I have been using this brush since I got it perfectly like I wanted. I tried so many type of brow brush and one has never satisfied me. Sometimes it cam be to long, to flimsy or basically wont give me that perfect drawing. So I created this brow brush that has the perfect stiffness and length. The shorter side are stiff enough to gently drag in your product on your brow without messing up. The top longer pointed part will give you the finest line to create that natural hair on your brow. This brush can also be use to apply gel eyeliner or simple use your pencil eyeliner for that smudge proof and straight perfect wing eyeliner. Also can be use for eyeshadow under your lid for that smoked out defined shadow.

These brushes launch today when this post is up! I could not thank you enough for your support and I ope you will love these brush as much as I do! <3

Pobling Mini Ion Applicator Review

Sabrina Tajudin August 23, 2015 5 comments

What's up! Today post is going to be about a cool beauty gadget that I have tried recently. Especially if you are a skincare junkie and always look for a more better way to apply your skincare or how to make the full out if your skincare routine. Today I am featuring the latest product from the famous Korean brand, Pobling. Known for its Pore Sonic Cleanser. This simple tool can really make a difference in your skincare routine. Watch my video below to see a little demonstration and how it looks like in a better view!

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

This is the Pobling Mini Ion Applicator. Comes in 2 different color option which is grey and red. Mine is in grey. Comes in a box like above shown. It describe as a tool that gives out Galvanic Ion from its fine vibration which helps to deliver cosmetics nutrients to your skin. So when you apply your skincare, your skincare will absorb better and penetrates deep into your skin.

Battery sold separately, you will need a triple A battery to turn it on. The body it self is very light, and after I put in the battery, it has a nice weight to hold on. So of course, since it is battery operated, this tool is not waterproof. Just clean it with a clean cloth or tissue after use.

This is the head of the tool. It has a spatula looking thing on top of it from my opinion and could be use as a spatula to scoop out your skincare out especially the one in jars. The round button look a like n the middle part is not a button This tool will turn on when it touches your skin. The rounded shape head on top of it also just the perfect size to run through small areas o my face. This tool is very lightweight and definitely travel friendly.

This is a simple demonstration on how I use this Pobling Mini Ion Applicator. First of all, I will gently put some amount of skincare to my face. hen I hold the tool gently massage it on my skin. As it get contact with my skin, its starts to vibrate. I repeat the circular motion and outward motion until it is fully absorb. After using it, just wipe clean with a tissue.

A little bit about Hermo Malaysia. Hermo Malaysia is an online store that has partnered with more than 20 brands locally and internationally. You name it, Sigma, BH Cosmetics, Revlon, L'Oreal, Maybelline, Etude House, Laneige and many more are in there. Provide free shipping to semenanjung with minimum purchase of 2 items.

Best Powder Brush | Face Luxe Brush by Breena Beauty

Sabrina Tajudin May 4, 2015 42 comments

Hey guys! What's up! Are you having a holiday today? I hope you have a great time! I have a great time too because today is a big day for me.Why? I guess you all have know? Or maybe not? Well, today is the day where Breena Beauty, my little project that I have been working on for years has come alive and I am launching my first debut brush with is the Face Luxe Brush that I am reviewing today! Feels awkward to review your own product hey! But hey, you got to love what you created <3

Here is a little description of the first brush I came out with. It is the best brush for powder & airbrush application. No more cakey face! Face Luxe Brush is a multi tasking brush that works great with both powders & liquid formula products. It creates a soft focus airbrush finish to your skin. Best used in buffing & padding motion. It features soft dome sculpted shape & ultra soft (non animal hair) synthetic bristles for an effortless, seamless & natural effect makeup application. Work best with, Face Powder, Powder Foundation, Loose Powder, Mineral powder, Translucent Powder, Pressed Powder, Liquid Foundation, Bronzer and many more by your own preference.

The handle is made out of wood and painted in white. Gold engraved logo of Breena & the name of the brush are on the handle. So the name of the brush would last longer and wont rub away. Although it is white, the handle can be clean and wipe easily from dirt. The ferrule is made out of high quality rose gold metal. The bristles are actually has a white tip and dark brown on the lower part. In the picture it looks black, but it is actually dark brown. Each individual brush came with a box for that luxury feel to it. There is the brush description on the back of the box.

I know it is my brush but I can't handle myself to let you know that this is one of the softest brush I ever own! It feels so luxurious when applied on my face. Not scratchy feeling and no streaky textured leave behind when you use this brush. Even after a few wash, the softness remains. Guarantee! It has a rounded dome shape on top so t acts like a sponge but does not absorb too much of your product and waste your product.

Here are my favorite ways to use this brush. If you notice I have been mentioning about the best brush I use for my powder product. Yep, this is it! Been using it for years now since I got the sample from my factory and it is so hard to keep a secret! Haha! Glad it is reveal until it is fully ready to be launch. Since I got this brush, I never use face sponge to apply my powder. This has been helping me to evenly distribute my powder product effortlessly and evenly! The perfect amount of product is taken in just a gently swipe in any pressed product such as pressed face powder, foundation powder, bronzer, blush and many more.

Other favorite to use this brush is for my loose type of product. Oh my oh my! Since I got this brush, I have been addicted to use my Laura Mercier Translucent powder with my brush. Its evenly distribute the powder to my face so easily. Does not swipe away my base which is the liquid foundation I applied before using my powder. Also if you search some beauty tips on how to apply powder, it is actually by "stamping" motions. With the Face Luxe Brush that is what you have to do. Your powder will last long and evenly buffed in to your skin and leaving your skin look natural and evenly covered. That is why I choose a short handle. Stamping and padding motion are easily done with this brush. No more sponge that full of bacteria!

If you look closely, the brush head of this Face Luxe Brush has a domed shape. Looks similar to a round type of sponge. The bristles are densely packed but it is very flexible so getting around the corner of your face is not a problem. My favorite way to use this brush is for my face powder product and blurring out any harsh applied blush and bronzer all over my face. It also can be use for a very liquid-y type of product such as liquid foundation. If you love a semi-high coverage liquid foundation, you may use this brush. This brush is now available at www.breenabeauty.com for RM39.00 as an introduction price. As for now it is onky available to be shipped in Malaysia. I am still working on for my brand to ship internationally.

Here it is, my #theprojectB, Breena Beauty. A vegan (no animal hair brush) and Muslim friendly makeup brush for you. What I am focusing are creating an affordable, essential and easy to use by all makeup lovers. Rather than piling up a few brush in one set and ending up only use a few of them, I wanted to create an individual brush for each steps in the makeup routine. Starting off with the basic one which is a powder brush. Maybe next one would be Foundation, then blush, then concealer. Who knows? So stay tune, and give me your support! I already working on the second brush. How to keep updated? Follow my Breena Beauty social media as below! Thank you so much for your support and I hope Breena Beauty will grow bigger with more awesome product coming in!
