Baviphat Peach Peeling gel

Peeling + Peach = BUY!!!
But I ended up with disappointments with this one. It started in my luggage... I got this one from Korea, not opening it and storing it in my luggage... guess what... it leaked. Apparently the gel contains so much liquid, the liquid manage to leak out and wet the packaging plus some stuff in my luggage.
Leakage aside... let’s go to the product. As you can see... it is housed in cute peach shaped plastic container. It smells like peach ice cream or peach flavouring if you like... the gel is more jelly like jell-o.  
This product is actually gommage. Just take a little and rub it on your face. Unlike most gommage I’ve used, this one get clumpy ultra fast. Just rub a little and voila-clumps! And unlike when I used other gommage (usually I stopped when the clumps started to form), I just continue on massaging gently with this one. I feel that I don’t get any of the peeling or scrubbing effect if I stopped after the clumping.
I do think this is just like regular scrub... I don’t feel my skin cleaner and blackheads are still there too... I’ll give it a skip if I were to try tester sized first...

Holika Holika Apple Shine Peeling Sheet

The moment I saw the word ‘peeling’, I just wanted to try it!
This product is really a pad, rough pad with green dots dosed with apple scented liquid. To use it, just rub it on your face, rough side down. I followed it up with washing my face with regular cleanser.  Kinda no brainer, if you ask me.
After using, I don’t really feel any big difference. This is just regular physical scrub with roughened up pad.
The liquid itself contains ultra fine scrubbies, when wet I don’t really feel it. but when dried, I can see the whitish deposits on my skin.
Erm.. bottom line...i don’t really know what this thing is doing for my skin except scrubbing it (which my regular scrub cleaner also can do very well). The only good thing from Apple Shine Peeling Sheet is its apple shaped packaging and the fact that it is not drying on my skin. That’s all...

Baby Foot Easy Pack

I have always been interested with this product... partly because of the gross picture of dead skin peeling from sole of feet in the promo ads.
(picture from adambeauty.com)
Sounds nice if that can happen to my feet. My foot skin is really dry and rough. I’ve scrubbed it, moisturize it... using physical scrub, exfoliating products... none ever worked.
When I saw this in adambeauty.com, I just hit the ‘buy’ button! 
Wont go into details on how to use it here... many websites and the instruction leaflets described it nicely already. What I don’t really fancy is the fact that I have to bear wearing the moist plastic socks for two hours... I hate moist socks!
Moist socks aside... let’s fast forward 2 days after my first application... nothing yet...
Day 3... whoaaaa.... my skin started to dry up and peel  easily. As tempting as it might be, I strongly do not recommend you to pull your skin while your feet is dry. It hurts. Trust me... I tried!
By day 4, I learnt that soaking up feet in warm water and scrubbing slowly with gentle scrub will make the peeling process faster and easier... minus the pain.
For me, the peeling lasts for about 4 days (after initial peeling). Since the first application until the peeling process is completed, I abstained from applying any lotion on my feet. Just to make the dead skin dry faster and peel off faster too.
A little gross, granted. But my feet feels smooth after all the peelings. It doesn’t completely remove ultra hard patches of skin on your feet... but it helps.
I would definitely re-purchase this one!
