Shiseido/BDJ 7-Day Challenge 2 of 2


Part 2, yay!

I got a huge zit on the night of Day4. It was really big and red and I knew that it'd definitely leave its mark on my face (T_T). Anyway, let me leave my Day5 photo with the huge zit and I'll make a connection later hihi.


Day 5

Shiseido White Lucent Intensive Brightening Mask

I used the mask on the 7th day when I got home from class. I took my midterm exam that day and I was really stressed out. The first thing I noticed about the mask is that it was really easy to put on. It fits my face really well and even when I moved around my room it just stays on my face. Since I was really stressed that day, the mask became a stress-reliever for me since upon putting it on I was instantly refreshed. It felt so cool on my face and it immediately perked me up. I especially loved it when the air from the fan hits on my face for that oh-so-cool feeling. :)



After 10 minutes, I removed the mask and decided to use the remaining liquid on the pack on my face. I thought it was a good idea then but after about 15 minutes, I felt it weird that my face isn't dry yet and it felt really oily. I think it would have been better if I saved the remaining ones in a jar and used it for later. I can firmly say, with this experience, that too much of a good thing is a bad thing haha. I even decided to use an oil control film to absorb some of the oil and it took me 6 sheets(or was it 8? I forgot :P) to get me to the feeling I was comfortable with.

However, even with that minor mishap, I still think that the mask is really a great product. After all, it was my own greediness that got me in trouble heheh.

Anyway, remember my Day5 photo above? I posted it too to show how awesome I believe the mask is. The huge zit started drying out on the night of Day6(with the help of my acne gel which I will do a review next time) and getting darker on my skin by morning of Day 7. When I used the mask on the night of Day 7 there wasn't much of a difference yet but when I woke up on Day 8, the dark spot left by the huge zit was unexpectedly lighter than the morning before. Usually, if I get a huge zit like that, it always end up with a really dark spot on my face and it will take some months for it to be just as light as when I used the mask.

So there, my Shiseido/BDJ 7-day challenge officially ends but I will definitely continue using the products because with using these products my skin felt better and I feel happier. I'm really happy with the results of my 7-day challenge. It's been a fun and busy week for me and the next weeks would probably be busier but I'll try to post as soon as I can. :D

Shiseido/BDJ 7-Day Challenge 1 of 2

Hello hello! I'm writing this on the 5th day after my Day 7 of the challenge. I've been so busy lately with school and other stuff that I wasn't able to write earlier OTL.

Anyway, to start off, let me first talk about my skin. I have a very sensitive skin, there may be more products in the market which make me break out than those that do not (sad T_T), plus I have hormone problems so it's common for me to get pimples every month and these pimples would always leave dark spots on my face. I've been to four dermatologists already but I never follow through with the treatment regimen because of reasons (hehe). So..

I have received my February BDJ Box last February 21 and immediately started on the challenge. 

Shiseido Benefiance Extra Creamy Cleansing Foam

I love how my face feels really clean upon using this product. It feels so smooth when I was massaging it on my face and yet, after I finished rinsing, my face feels squeaky clean. It has a nice smell, I feel like it smells a little musky. It actually reminds me of an oatmeal bar soap but creamier and with smoother results.

Shiseido White Lucent Intensive Spot Targeting Serum

Ordering and receiving the Shiseido Exclusive BDJ Box was really timely since I have had a lot of breakouts since the start of the year. It was really a blessing and a surprise when I got my bdj box since I really needed it at the moment hihi. I wanted to target the dark spots on my cheeks and chin. I was actually worried that the 2ml sample would not be able to last until the 7th day because I really had a lot of spots to take care of (there are dark spots on my forehead too but I decided to focus on my cheeks and chin for now) but I'm proud to say that this 2ml sample exceeded my expectations and I'm really happy with it. The serum is a little on the viscous side so I had to be careful especially during opening and recapping since I don't want to waste any of it. 

Shiseido Benefiance Wrinkle Resist24 Night Emulsion

I was really happy that I got the night emulsion instead of the day cream since my T-zone area tends to get really oily during the day so I usually skip on applying any products on my face especially when I'm just lurking at home. Anyway, I love love using this! My skin felt so smooth and supple the first time I've used it, especially on my cheeks. However, when I woke up in the morning, my T-zone area felt oilier than usual and it felt icky so I decided to just put it on my cheeks and chin every night. I think it worked out well for me since in the morning -- my cheeks especially feels soft while my forehead and nose were not excessively oily.


Day 1(Left) and Day 4(Right). 
Some of the spots got lighter already on Day4, yay :)

Sooo, I will finish with the mask review and Day 7 photo on the next part of my Shiseido/BDJ Challenge. Check it out! ;D Part 2 of 2 of my Shiseido/BDJ 7-day challenge
