Wishtrend. & Klairs Midnight Blue Calming Cream

No Comments

I’m so thankful for the Klairs Midnight Blue Calming Cream that I received complimentary from Wishtrend to test and review. I can apply a small amount to a few irritated blemishes and in the morning the redness is gone and the irritation calms down significantly! Its even more soothing when put in the fridge before use for an added cooling effect. I have also used this cream after an at-home dermaroller or dermastamp treatment to help soothe and calm my skin, and immediately after hair removal on my upper lip and brow area. It works wonders for calming skin irritation after hair removal! I will be using this cream as long as Klairs continues to make it. ​​

If you suffer from irritated skin, blemishes, etc. I highly recommend this cream as a spot treatment for affected areas!

Wishtrend is my favorite source for the latest in Korean beauty products. They discover products from up and coming brands and offer the best in quality at a reasonable price. Wishtrend is a very informative source for Korean beauty products because they regularly post helpful tips and videos on social media and the Wishtrend website.

My favorite ways to shop Wishtrend are Brand Packages, which include brands like CosRx, Klairs, etc. AND…

Wish Offers which are Top-Rated Special Offers, such as:

  • SOL-KIT or Solution Kit, this offer is made in order to recommend the solutions that help to solve your skin or hair concerns. Its useful if you don’t know what items you need to choose.
  • BEAUTY STEAL, offers items with some gifts at a discounwish-offered price. You would be satisfied with the offer if you want to get more items and samples.
  • WISHBOX, a limited box. Even though you really want it, but you may not be able to get it because Wishtrend limits the quantity. Continuously, it will be compared to various beauty items monthly.
  • WISH RECIPE, Sometimes, Less is more. Wish Recipe is definitely ‘less’, but ‘more’ than expected. Even though its compact, the effects are powerful. It is designed to minimize the complicated steps of skincare and give you ‘the’ special recipe for any skin concerns. Specialized recipes will help you get the skin you deserve.

Ocha & Co. Matcha Green Tea Powder & Tea Accessories

No Comments

Ocha & Co. offers award winning Japanese Green Tea, Matcha Powder & Tea Accessories. Today, I made a matcha tea latte with almond milk with the organic Matcha green tea powder, and it was perfection! I have tried several Matcha tea powders from other brands, and the quality is nowhere near the quality of Ocha & Co. You can use Matcha powder in smoothies, lattes, recipes, or drink it straight.

Matcha contains antioxidants, catechins. One specific catechin called epigallocatechin gallate (EGCg) makes up 60% of the catechins in Matcha Green Tea. Out of all the antioxidants, EGCg is the most widely recognized for its cancer fighting properties.

In addition to being widely recognized for its cancer fighting properties, Matcha has so many more positive health benefits. Matcha enhances calm, boosts memory and concentration, increases energy and levels of endurance, burns calories, detoxifies the body, fortifies the immune system, improves cholesterol, and provides sustainable energy without the crash that the effect that caffeine in coffee can have.

Ocha & Co. Japanese Kyoto Uji Matcha Green Tea Powder

Kyoto Uji Matcha is Ocha & Co.’s highest grade matcha, prepared from young, first green tea leaves at Uji in Kyoto, the birthplace of the Japanese tea ceremony. The flavor is mild and mellow, with a slightly sweet aftertaste and none of the bitterness found in lower grade Matcha tea powders. This is truly a top quality matcha, the closest you can get to a ceremonial grade without the price tag. The color is a vibrant green and has the smoothest taste of any other Matcha powders I have EVER had.

Ocha & Co. Organic Japanese Matcha Green Tea Powder

Ocha & Co.’s Japanese organically certified Matcha green tea powder is from Shizuoka, Japan. Young, first flush green leaves are picked and quickly steamed to seal in the goodness before processing and are 100% natural without any additives. The tea is grown in perfect conditions for tea production in some of the highest plantations in the Japan. The value is incredible for a high-quality organic Japanese Matcha.

 

HOW TO MAKE MATCHA THE TRADITIONAL JAPANESE WAY

Why not make Japanese Matcha the traditional way using a Chasen (whisk) and Chashaku (scoop) and drink it the way it is enjoyed in Japan. Follow the instructions in the illustration using only hot water to make Ushicha (light matcha drink); add extra powder and make Koicha (thicker matcha drink) used in Japanese tea ceremonies. Slow down and savor the intense flavors and aroma of these drinks and focus on the day ahead. Sipping from a Chawan (Japanese matcha bowl) will heighten the experience.

Tria Hair Removal Laser 4X

No Comments

The Tria Hair Removal Laser 4x is the first and only FDA-cleared hair removal laser available for home use, using the same diode laser technology preferred by dermatologists. The Tria Laser 4X targets and permanently disables the hair follicle to stop hair growth on the face and body for permanent results, score. The device comes with a skin sensor that scans your color of skin and lets you know if it is safe for your pigment or not. You also are urged to test patches of your skin on low settings before so you can gauge your skin’s reaction to the treatment before going to town on your entire body.

If you’ve ever waxed or epilated, you could most likely handle the sensation of the Tria Hair Removal Laser 4X. The feeling is like little rubber bands snapping against your skin. In the beginning of each treatment, I sometimes use a numbing cream that I purchase online to help me tolerate the treatments in more sensitive areas, which helps. Using this laser is WAY better than having swollen, bleeding and irritated skin after yanking the hairs out from waxing or epilating, I promise you…. Level 3 is definitely more effective, but honestly it is also a little more uncomfortable. I have not actually been able to use any levels higher than 3 just yet, but I’m hoping to get there in the next month or so.

Tria Beauty Age-Defying Laser

No Comments

 

 

Tria Beauty Age-Defying Laser

I have been using the Tria Age-Defying Laser for a year and I love the results that I have achieved with this device! The first change in my skin that I noticed was that the large pores on my cheeks were getting much smaller and appeared poreless with makeup, which no makeup primer has been able to do for me. This was a huge improvement on its own, and I didn’t expect this result in only a couple of weeks!

The device comes pre-charged and the instructions included are very clear to read and understand. On the top of the device, there are three little green lights that will light up when choosing which level you would like to use. There is level 1, 2 and 3. Tria recommends that you begin on level 1 so that you can easily adjust to the sensation of the treatment. After you become accustomed to what the treatment feels like, you can increase the levels to suit your comfort levels as you progress.

How to use the Tria Age Defying anti-aging Laser:​
-Step 1: CLEANSE. Wash your skin to remove all traces of makeup, sunscreen and other products that can block the laser beam. For best results, use the Priming Cleanser.

-Step 2: TREAT. Select your level (1-3). Glide the Age-Defying Laser over your entire face for full anti-aging benefits.

-Step 3: NOURISH. Follow your treatment with Finishing Serum.

The laser must be used on clean, dry skin. The laser treatment will not begin working until the laser sensors are against your skin. The laser will beep to let you know you are done with the first zone (area) of your face and it is time to move to the next zone. When the treatment is completed it will make a sound similar to a video game (ta, da, da, da) to let you know the session is done. The laser uses a lot of energy, so I recommend charging the device on the base included between uses.

 

Refer to the diagrams shown below for helpful information on how to it works and what the diagrams and buttons mean.
