Lanolin Beauty Cream with Vitamin E


If my memory serves me right this cost around RM25.00. I’m not too sure because a friend of my sister’s bought it from Australia but i’m pretty sure it’s around that price range.

Anyways, Lanolin product has long been known for it’s smoothening and moisturizing properties and is very popular in Australia. Lanolin is the substance secreted by wool-bearing animals; mostly comes from sheeps which is used in the cosmetic sector because lanolin protects the skin from harsh environment.



There are a lot of brands available in Australia; some at a lower price range and some more expensive. It all depends on the type of lanolin cream you are looking for. There are some that includes collagen properties and some with Vitamin E and etc.

This particular brand – Lanolin Beauty Cream is with Vitamin E. The lanolin comes from Australian Merino sheeps that are regarded as the finest. I’m told that it is great for wrinkles too!



I’ve used it for more than 1 week and i am happy to say it’s quite effective. My skin feels soft and smooth. The scaly area on my elbow and knee is obviously more soft now. I put it on at night before going to bed and i’m glad it’s not greasy at all.

The thick and rich white cream absorbs well. It even smells great. I’m not too sure that it is effective on wrinkles though. However, i’m happy enough with this product to purchase more when i get a chance.

I’m Allergic To Everything

 
It seems i’ve developed another benign allergy. That’s not surprising as much as frustrating because as i get older, my stupid immune system seems to think it’s fun playing cruel jokes on me. But it’s getting ridiculous even by my weak standard ok.
 

1) Banana Boat sunblock ->> After deciding to jog again (partly for health reason, mostly to be drop-dead-slimmed-down gorgeous), i bought sunblock so i won’t have skin cancer from over-exposure to the sun. But i get these red spots all over the area after application. The only consolation is that it doesn’t itch. Who the hell get’s allergic to Banana Boat product for gods sake?!!! Oh, i forgot. Me.
 

2) Dust ->> I found out about this one when my former cheapskate employer decided to renovate the office but didn’t bother to relocate us. So we were rather unhappily sitting right in front of the renovation site, sneezing our nose off. Don’t get me wrong. We loved it because for the next couple of weeks we were happily celebrating by taking turn for MC. Then the celebration was over because i was the only one getting really sick and had rashes all over my body which didn’t heal for the next few months. Wtf.
 

3) EPI Products ->> Remember i told you about the moronic beautician who destroyed my face? Well she pushed me into purchasing almost RM1k worth of product which after as it turned out that i was allergic to. She of course vehemently denies it but i stopped using the products and my acne problem got better and my scars healed. My new beautician says i’m allergic to some kind of enzyme in that brand of products and i trust her. There, the stupid product brand is EPI. I’m glad i got that out of my system. My suggestion to new user of that brand, thread water carefully, test it at least for 3 months before purchasing.
 

4) Salicylic Acid ->> All of a sudden, i’m allergic to products containing Salicylic Acid meaning mostly ALL acne products. Which sux because i have acne and i need that ingredient to control the sebum on my face. But i can’t use it because my lips would start to chap and blister and burn if comes to contact with that particular ingredient no matter how minimal it is. So F*ck Salicylic Acid. I’m going to commission a professor to create an elixir for acne… yes, right after i hit jackpot.
 

5) Haze ->> It’s a sign that i must migrate from this evil land as soon as possible before i die a horrible death coz we know very well the haze won’t go away. Doc says that my nose and throat is a little inflamed but i suspect he is subtly telling me “Haze bad. Kill you. Painful death. Get out. Now!”… I think the haze is making me paranoid. Hey doc, i need more medication.
 

6) Origins Perfect World for Eye ->> Oh, this is a new one. I just bought the eye cream last week and after applying the cream around my eye area, my eyes puffed up and kept on getting watery like i was slicing onion or something. All the while i thought it was because of my insomnia and haze allergy but no, it was the eye cream. It’s so ridiculous because i never heard of anyone getting allergic to this particular product. Why does shit always happens to me. Oh goody what fun.
 

Somebody please kill me. Uhm… Preferably not with a knife coz you know… uhm… i might develop an allergy to stainless steel too. I don’t want to die with a face and body full of disgusting rashes. Please let me be beautiful when i die.

Maybe you can stab me with a chopstick, less risk there.
