NARUKO Tea Tree Purifying Clay Mask & Cleanser In 1

Hi everyone,

On my recent visit to the health care stores, my mission is to purchase a purifying mask. Then I found NARUKO Tea Tree Purifying Clay Mask & Cleanser in 1 which gives me 3 in 1 benefits; 1) facial cleanser, 2) gentle exfoliant, 3) deep cleansing mask. Tea tree oil is extracted from the leaves of the Melaleuca alternifolia (a native plant in Australia) and it is best used to clarify the skin, deep cleansing to wash away unnecessary oil to prevent clogged pores and acne. 

最近一次去逛保健商店的任务是买一支净肤面膜。最后让我找到了[牛尔亲研] 的茶树抗痘敷面净肤泥。 它有三大功能: 1) 洗颜乳 2) 去角质 3) 敷面泥。 产品里的茶树是从一种生长在澳大利亚的植物上提取的。那植物的名称是Melaleuca Alternifolia. 它有很大的洁净功効, 以助于深层净肤、去除油脂及舒畅阻塞的毛孔。

Though there's three ways of using this product, but I've only used it as a cleanser at first. Personally I am a big fan of tea tree oil products. I really love the smell of essential aroma and also the refreshed feeling and cooling effect leaving on my face. With Zinc PCA as an oil control agent, it works well on my oily & combination skin type to cleanse the oil and impurities on my face. Most importantly is paraben free! 

虽然有三种用法，我开始时只是把它当洗脸霜用。本人很喜欢茶树的产品，所以我也很喜欢它那清香的味道。而且用了之后，还有清凉和提神皮肤的功效。产品里面含有控油成分：锌。对混合性或油性皮肤的朋友们，这可是最佳用品！因为它可以去除脸上的油脂和杂质。最重要的是，它不含Paraben.

The texture is slightly creamy and contain jojoba beads with mint (the blue thingy) which use to exfoliate the skin. It is not rough but gentle to the skin. Soon after using it, my skin looks cleaner and brighter. 

产品是膏状的。它含有荷荷巴和薄荷（蓝色的点点），擦在皮肤上有助于去角质，也不会太粗。用了之后，皮肤看起来洁净、亮丽。

If you were to use it as a mask, I would suggest these two ways. 1) After exfoliate, you can leave it for about 3 mins on your face then rinse off. 2) Or after cleansing, squeeze about 3cm and apply evenly on your T-zone/face for about 5 mins then rinse off. 

如果你是把它当面膜泥来用的话，我建议以下两种用法：1）去完角质后，让产品留在脸上大约3分钟，然后再洗掉。2）又或是在洗完脸后，挤出大约3公分的产品，平均擦在 “T” 字部位 / 整个脸上。分量清适量调整。五分钟后，用清水洗掉。

Some beauty tips to share with you. If you are oily skin type, you can apply all over the face otherwise just apply on the T-zone area. You can also follow the below massage technique. (extracted from Naruko's website). 

在这里有些美容提示要和大家分享。如果你是油性肌肤的，可以将产品涂在整个脸上。如果是干性，就建议你只涂在 “T” 字部位上。大家可以参考以下的按摩方式。

Retail price is RM29.00 and can be found at all Watsons outlet in Malaysia.
市价只售RM29.90。可在全马的Watsons分行找到。

THE BODY SHOP Tea Tree Oil Facial Exfoliator

Calling for oily skin!...Super duper oily skin! This is a product made for you. 

The Body Shop Tea Tree Oil Facial Exfoliator

The Body Shop's Tea Tree Oil Facial Exfoliator is made for oily or blemished skin. I don't have super oily skin but I do have oily T zone. I'm using it once a week to remove all dead skins and unblock pores. My skin feels smoother with just a small amount of the product. Dead skin and clogged pores can developed into acne if its not treated well. So, you would want to get rid of them ASAP!

But because my U zone is less oily, sometimes my skin feels tight after using the scrub. It also have strong scent of tea tree. I personally think it's okay but I'm not sure if you do too. Anyway,  scent is subjective to personal preference. 

这产品是对付油性肌肤和痘痘问题的最佳秘方。虽然我的皮肤不属于超油性的那种，可是我的 T 部位是蛮油的。每逢周末，我会用它来去死皮和对付堵塞的毛孔。只需很少的分量，我的皮肤感觉非常滑。如果没有妥善的处理掉死皮和毛孔阻塞的问题，它们很容易就会变成粉刺或肉粒。到时候，就更麻烦了！

我的皮肤是混合性的，U 部位是比较干的。有时候用了会觉得皮肤紧紧的，尤其是脸颊的部分。所以我说这产品非常适合超油性的皮肤。除此子外，茶树的味道很强，不是每个人可以接受得到，不过我觉得还可以。

The product is green in colour as you can see from the picture.  It also have little brown bits. The texture is quite rough.  So, if you have sensitive skin, I would suggest you use just a tiny bit then add on accordingly. 

It is made from ground tea tree leaves originated from Kenya which act as anti-bacterial substance. It also removes excess oil which is a common cause of acne. 

从图画上可看到它是绿色的，还有小小颗的棕色物质，质感还蛮粗的。皮肤较敏感或较细腻的朋友们最好用一点就好。它其实是用肯雅的茶树叶磨成的。茶树有助于消除真菌和吸取多余的油脂。

How to apply: I usually start by cleansing my face to remove dirt and oil with my normal cleanser. Then, I'll squeeze just a little product, about the size of a bean and massage in circular motion onto my face and neck.  Rinse it off with water and voilà! smooth and clear skin。 

Retail price is RM42. I got mine with 50% off during their special promotion season last year. (Yes, last year) I know I'm not supposed to keep it for more than 12 months or so but this stuff just won't finish.

So, if you have super oily skin, do try it out! 

使用方式：使用前，我会用我平时用的洗脸霜先去掉污质和油脂。然后就挤一点点的产品，大约是一颗豆粒般的比率，以打圈圈的动作在脸和颈部上按摩。再用清水洗掉产品，滑溜溜的肌肤就会出现了！

这产品只售RM42，而我是去年以半价买到的。厉害吧？！ 哈哈。。虽说产品一般开封后不可用超过12个月，可是我用了很久都还用不完。

如果你的脸是亮到会发光的那种，不妨试试它。

with love,
