Hi all! I'm just starting on Elianto products (slowly as my pocket allows) and I wonder what most of you think of this brand.

To date, I think I have a whole bag full of Elianto nail polish and I love the funky colours that prep me up on a "down" mood. I also have some 'normal' dainty colours. And the nail polish remover... my favourite so far as it doesn't have that strong acetone "nose-hurting" smell.

I'm trying out the new facial cream soap, the deep sea mud one. I have to admit, my face is very sensitive and I'm very hessitant about trying new stuff. So far this is good... Exfoliates my skin, leaves a nice clean feeling.

So can anyone recommend me nice stuff to try out?

hehe.. same here lo. i also started out with nail polish. funny i heard some ppl have some reaction to the dead sea mud.. maybe bcos of the minerals but to me, it works quite well. i thought of trying the cleansing tissues bcos i'm "oh-so-lazy" and tired when it's time to remove makeup..

yo girls

i went to elianto's store on friday and got a few things to try out. Here's what I got:
-Aloe Facial Foam Cleanser
-Aloe Face Toner
-Aloe Moisturising Emulsion
-Aloe Makeup Cleansing Tissues
-Aloe Essence Mask
-Age Defying Collagen (for my mum )
-NAIL POLISH Romance Nail Colour Violet (no trip to Elianto is complete without a bottle of nail polish! )
**I'm so accurate because I look at the website for the exact names.

Well, first of all I have to give all due credits to the kind beauty consultant. She was so helpful and spent as much time with me as I needed to explain what to do and what not to do.

Why ALOE for me? Mainly because I have rather sensitive skin - when it comes to new products I'm always apprehensive to try because I will get an allergy reaction, having red patched on my face with horribly agonising itches So the girl recommended that I tried Aloe. So far I've been using consistently through the weekend, twice a day, I have clearer, fairer and cleaner compliexion, with NO allregy reaction. I'm so glad to have found something that works.

Why Cleansing Tissues? Well, just one word - Lazy I don't mind spending time to put on make up but when it comes to removing it I'm always lazy (my excuse is tiredness). I used to use baby wipes for convenience and well, dumb thing to do as it #1. caused allergic reactions, #2. is not the right thing to use I love this product so much...!

Well, that's my shopping bag for this time.. Hope more can share their views

Added on June 9, 2008, 10:31 am first of all, what's your skin type? hehe... it's very important to determine your skin type before you get a skin care product.

Based on what I learned from the beauty consultant (BC), Aloe is for oily and/or sensitive skin. Green Tea is for all skin types, catered to those looking for anti-aging range. Ginseng is for more matured skin. Hope this helps. I think for more information, we should all go to the Elianto shop and ask the BC and share here hahaha!

Added on June 9, 2008, 10:38 amhey, maybe you can check this out! http://www.nailcareguide.com/solution_splitting_nail.htm Apparently, it's recommended that you don't use nail polish remover more than once a week. Hope it helps!

then i guess you're like me.. so Aloe it is. Hehe.. I wanted to try the cleansing oil (makeup remover too) but out of stock. So i got the cleansing tissues... I like them nonetheless.. hehehe..

not pro not pro... just good to know the products available in the market well... hehe

yup, there was an elianto gal search last year (2007). i heard that it was a very successful event. the girl was from KTAR, named sin hui jing. that's all i know about her.. i haven't really met her.

Added on June 10, 2008, 11:16 amoh yeah the story of my new facial cream soap... my cousin came to visit for the weekend from singapore, tried it and took the whole tub back... oh well, i still have my aloe range..

Added on June 11, 2008, 8:34 amooo.. interesting. erm... i haven't met her so i don't know much. hehe...

ooo.. nice. use longer maybe we will have more things to say. i think the elianto pageant thing is the one that is going a little off topic here.. =.=!!! it sounds a bit like talking about "leng lui" thread

hehe.. the cleansing oil is still on sale.. i checked with them already. it's just that they haven't got the stock yet. ya.. now only got green tea lo. that's why i got the makeup wipes. actually, i've been using them for the past erm... 1 week and i find it pretty good. (erm... i also wear makeup the whole day in office) and i haven't got the lip and eye remover so i use the wipes for that too. it really makes my face clean and after a wash with the cleanser my face feels very smooth and clean. i'd like to get the scrub one day though because i read from articles that it's good to do a scrub at least once a week to remove dirt and dead cells..

yup... i have to admit i do a lot of reading from articles in google. hehehe..

ai yo, talk la anything about elianto i just felt a bit weird girls talking about girls hehe...

hey-lo!

i think i need to get a scrub... i have not been exfoliating my skin for a long time and i just read from an article (erm.. can't remember but i'll look for it and post it later) that it's good to exfoliate your skin and remove all the dead cells. i guess i should try and prevent major clogged pores problem

goody-morning, happy monday! (although i feel more sleepy than happy...)

i got my scrub on friday and i like it. hehe... i got the aloe scrub and the brightening eye zone treatment patch
(for my horrendous dark circles.. ) i tried the scrub on saturday and it was good. the BC taught me to use the toner to wash off the scrub instead of water which would make your face dirty again... erm... too much technicality i can't really remember.

i have only used one pair of patch so far when i see results i'll keep you all posted

oh ya about st ives scrub.. it can be too harsh for your face because of the beads which are rather coarse which in turn is quite damaging to your face. it's like using a hard toilet brush to brush your hand (hope you get what i mean)..

Added on June 16, 2008, 8:49 amyo binxz! the fruit yogurt pack is mainly for dry and a bit more mature skin. deep sea mud i think they only have facial cream soap. i've had some reaction to sea minerals.. so just an advice: you might want to determine if your skin reacts to minerals before you try that since there are so many kinds of minerals in it.. hope it helps!

tell me about it.. i'm so sleepy i'm almost falling asleep now at 8.30am!

i happened to be at sunway pyramid yesterday and i went into elianto and got more things this time i got the shampoo (mine was running out already), dead sea lip and eye makeup remover and brush cleaner.. i tried the shampoo (the lily one) today and it smelled good.

the BC did tell me that you have to use eye patches continually before you see the results. put them on once a week.. 12 bucks for 12 pairs ok what... and my colleague attested to it (mind you, he's a guy). i guess like all things you can't expect immediate good results..

Added on June 17, 2008, 8:38 amhihihi.. welcome to this thread.

just for your info, the yogurt range is more for matured skin (well the BC recommended to my mum and not me..) whitening can try aqua rich whitening gua.. pore refining >>> maybe try toning. i've always been looking for the elusive pore refining ideal then when i made it a point to tone my face it gets better... i might be wrong so better ask the BC

liquid eyeshadow? which one? aqua eyeshadow or mousse eyeshadow?

hello.. welcome to the thread wow.. you must love to paint your nails a lot eh? i just got another 2 funky colours and 1 transparent colour for days when i don't know what colour i wan to wear i have lost count on how many elianto nail colours i have now actually. maybe 10 maybe more...

but maybe you could try the skin care next. i haven't tried the body care yet.. i plan to someday but i have been using the skincare for 3 weeks now and it's really good. my complexion has improved greatly, fairer, cleaner, softer and smoother. i'm sure crazytazz can attest to that too..

mask mask mask.. good good for the price you pay. even my mum likes the mask (she's using the collagen one). i'm using the aloe essence mask complement my whole aloe skincare range.. try try then let us know

---

Added on June 23, 2008, 9:41 amyo crazytazz!! my facial tissue almost finish ler my mum stole my tissues facial scrub is quite good ler.. but remember to let it dry for one minute then massage then use toner to wipe it off instead of the normal rinse off with water.

why not try the whole basic range first and see how it goes...? hehehe... all the best.

cool cool.. so many good reviews that means i should try their make up too eh?

wakakaka... yup i think the bigger malls have better variety and better stock..

i will keep a lookout for elianto's makeup products the next time i go into one...

liquid eyeliner?

i'm terrible in using eyeliner pencils.. liquid eyeliner lagi la tak pernah guna. (i begin to feel like i'm from out of this world ) but i'll try them at the shop one day

oh ya... good morning everybody..

hi folks. about oil seeds under the eyes - called MILIA - i have found a few articles for u to find out what exact cause them.

http://chetday.com/pimpleswhitehead.htm
http://www.bigskincare.com/skin_diseases/m...s_treatment.php

u might like to know that oil seeds are caused by blocked pores with excess oil stuck inside (like black heads but not easy to come out due to the delicate skin). maybe your friend didn't clean thoroughly enough? it is very important to clean all the makeup away each day or our skin would be clogged up.

as for mercury content.. i just wrote in to ask. pending reply and i will duly inform you girls. it's an info-sharing forum anyway right?

stuff like liquid eyeliner and mascara is hard to remove. hence you have got to use the lip and eye makeup remover which is water and oil based which would effectively remove ur eye makeup. try it.. bcos i did the same. i had a makeover complete with all the mascara and eyeliner and i used my lip & eye makeup remover and they all came off clean... so u can try.

pleasure is mine!

let's face it there's not much sharing of information especially on things that matters most to us - skincare and beauty. so i thought maybe we could just share in this thread as well..

ooo.. limited edition casing? the white one? looks nice ler..

i was window shopping then went into elianto again and i picked up a peppermint shower gel. feels nice smells nice (just like ice-cream hahaha ) it leaves a very cooling feeling after bath.
