Lancôme Gentle Softening Cleansing Fluid (Face & Eyes)

 

(Galateis Douceur Fluide Demaquillant Adoucissant Visage & Yeux)


A water-light lotion for fast, thorough cleansing that removes even the most stubborn makeup. Foundation, blush, mascara and lipstick all dissolve and disappear on contact! With gentle efficiency, this cleansing milk for the face and eyes gives perfectly clean skin in one step. Rediscover purity as your skin breathes and becomes naturally beautiful. 


Directions: Tissue off. Apply to the face and eye with circular movements then remove with a cotton pad. 

 I have tried it on my Solone Gel Like Smoody Pencil (review). It needs more fluid to fully remove my Solone eyeliner I guess it's because Solone pencil is too lasting and strong staying power.

It removed roughly 80% of my Solone eyeliner in the first round. I added more fluid to completely remove the eyeliner. However, it removed my face makeup and even mascara easily. Most importantly, it doesn't sting my eyes like other products even specially formulated to remove eyes makeup.

Tips:
After using this product for few times, I found that leaving the cleansing milk on my eye makeup for 1-2 minutes then massage in circular movements, it helps to remove my makeup easier. I normally wipe off with cotton pad. (if I ran out of cotton pad all in sudden, I replace with tissue paper but it's not a good way I know.)


USAGE: Daily, morning and evening.


Suitable for: All skin types
Product Name: Lancôme Gentle Softening Cleansing Fluid 
Size: 200ml/ 6.7FL.OZ.
Product type: Face & Eyes Cleansing Fluid
Comments: great removing power. Nice scent for relaxing while removing makeup after a whole day of stress, do not sting eyes.
Product Approved: 5/5

Lancôme Genifique Eye-Illuminating Youth Activator 
Lancôme Génifique Yeux Light-Pearl Eye Illuminating Youth Activator
 

What Product itself says:
For the first time, the perfect symbiosis of a light-infused serum and the Light-Pearl applicator for spectaccular eye-illuminating results.
Génifique Yeux holds ingredients that help promote an environmen more characteristic of youthful skin. The Light-Pearl is designed to work with high percision on the most inaccessible eye areas and to amplify the formula's efficiency. 
A unique alchemy to reduce eye bags, dark circles and fine lines. Your gaze reveals the visible signs of youth to a bigger and brighter younger looking.


This serum does reduce my puffiness and dark rings of my eyes after using it for about 1-2 weeks, day and night each time after cleansing face.

 The Light-Pearl applicator I should say like a god-made and does deliver an amazing result. I can notice the difference immediately after using the applicator to massage the ingredients right into my under eyes. It is definitely more hygiene and it leaves you a cooling sensation and you just feel so relaxing like someone is massaging your eyes gently. *sounds creepy?*

As I know this serum has the ingredients of caffeine and other main ingredients. So it proves again that caffeine work well to heal puffiness and dark rings.
So I can actually replace this with my coffee bags if i ran out of this serum or economic not allowed to purchase the second bottle. *sob.sob*

Product Name: Lancôme Genifique Eye-Illuminating Youth Activator
Size: 20ml/ 0.67FL.OZ.
Product type: Eye Serum with god-made applicator
Comments: It works what it promised, light texture which easily absorbed by skin, non greasy at all.
Product Approved: 5/5

 This is a trend that took off in Korea, this sunscreen can also be a translucent BB cream for the woman who wants protection and coverage without heavy makeup base looking. The cream helps to protect the skin against harmful UV rays and environmental factors while creating a radiance and an even skin tone. 
How to use: Apply after skincare routine (cleanse->toner->serum->moisturizer)and right before make up.
For every normal day: After applying Lancôme UV Expert GN-Shield High Potency Active Protection, I apply a thin layer of loose powder for a lighter and matte finishing. 
For special occasions (dating): After applying Lancôme UV Expert GN-Shield High Potency Active Protection, I apply my foundation for a better coverage and more even tone then I pat a thin layer of compact powder. Believe me, it hold all day long! No re-applying till I heading home at night!
 
Upon application it feels a little greasy, but it dries down to a non-sticky finish within 15 minutes on my face. It has the scent of rose extract which is nice and relaxing too. 
It leaves a slight white cast (on the left). Who doesn't hate white cast after applying that sticky sunscreen?! But this one is very minimal. It brightens up my complexion too as you can see. Giving me a radiance on skin. I would say it's more than just a simple sunscreen! It's a sunscreen-BBcream.
