Eau Thermale Avène Workshop

Eau Thermale Avène Workshop

• 10.13.2012

A brand that i basically worship lol, expensive but worth buying :-) Got to know about Avène a few years ago from my older sister during my horrible breakout days back in high school. I used to have red blotchy skin (from the pimple squeezing) and was damn embarrassed with my looks >.< Until my sis bought a travel size Avène thermal spring water spray (she never leaves the house without it) She told me it works by reducing the redness and really good refreshing face spray if you are sleepy lol

Tried it once and WOAH.....................IT WORKS! My skin's redness immediately reduced after 5-10minutes. But back then as a 15 year old kid with a salary of RM4 per hour (and i work 10am-10pm) no way i could afford this T^T  so yea...went without it until last year when i won one of  the Cyber colors glamour girl challenge (The Headshot task for FEMALE Magazine) won myself some SaSa vouchers :3

Didn't know what to buy until i saw Sasa selling Avène thermal spring water spray (4 bottles in a pack) @ a promotional price. Bought it without a second thought lol and until now i still have 3 more bottles :D Currently on my 2nd bottle, those huge bottles really last VERY long ♥ And I used the spray daily too, like after my face wash or before i put on my make up base. Definitely worth buying :-)

Got an invite to attend the workshop ♥ How could i say no to my favorite brand? :-P lol~ thank you Tammy and Only Beauty!

See how that huge glorious bottle of  Avène thermal spring water spray that stands out among the small sized minions? XD  This product comes in 3 sizes- Large (300ml) , Medium(150ml) and travel size (50ml)

The bowl that was provided for us during the hands on session to test out all their products  :3

 This workshop was really great and informative :-) The history of Eau Thermale Avène came from Sainte-Odile spring in France. Known for its healing properties especially for skin and the first Hydrotherapy Center was built near the spring itself . And this centre is not only dedicated to dermatology research it is also a Hydrotherapy Center used to treat skin problems such as burns,dermatitis, psoriasis and eczema

Our speaker of today was a local renown dermatologist, Dato Dr. Low Bin Tick who enlighten us the basic knowledge about our skin and how to care for it :-) Best way is to start young girls! Or by the time you reach early 30s your skin will start developing pigmentation due to our strong UV rays >.< practice applying sunblock whenever you go out :-) and at the highest SPF for more effective results too.
P/s : And he has been to the Sainte-Odile spring himself too! He say it is a must visit place if you are in France :D

Sérénage Nutri-Redensifying Day Cream, Sérénage Nutri-Redensifying Vital Serum, Sérénage Nutri-Redensifying Night Cream

 This workshop was basically the launching of their latest skin care range, Sérénage. Remember the poster above with the vibrant looking elderly women? Wonder what is her secret to sustaining a youthful healthy glow at her golden age? That is where Sérénage comes into place. It is an anti-aging skin care range that targets skin aging problems among women (eg: wrinkles, premature aging..etc) Who can use it? Anyone, best results for those who start at an early stage like age of 30s or if you really paranoid about aging skin by all means you can start now :-P lol~ 

More info on the product here : http://www.aveneusa.com/skin-aging/

Tested out the Sérénage Nutri-Redensifying Day Cream, the texture was smooth and non sticky,not to mention easy to blend as well!

These are products that are currently selling on the shelves in stores like Sasa or Guardian..etc :-)

Highly recommended product! :D I introduced this to my friend Isabella Tan a few months ago and now she is in love with it too! Share the love babes :D

Really good for those who feel like going out bare faced but worried about acne scars or uneven skin tone 

:-) Tinted sunblock , the texture is really easy to blend, doesn't leave you face sticky and it's water resistant too! 

 Okay~ Here we are during the demo for the hands on session. How to care for our skin step by step using Avène products ♥ That is when the bowl and hair clip came in handy lol

 I have to say their make up remover was really gentle and removes make up effortlessly. And my conclusion with Avène products? All of them skin friendly (as their aim is for those with sensitive skin) and their face cream is NEVER sticky. Which is a good thing :D Putting on a second layer of skin without feeling it ♥

Each table was provided with the whole set of mini testers XD soooo cute~

Un-glam photo of me with my refreshing self made face mask ♥ lol

You can get those dry face mask and spray it with Avène thermal spring water spray until its wet enough to stick on your face, leave it on for a few minutes and your skin will feel totally hydrated after that :D low cost face mask too ♥

MUST HAVE ITEM ♥

P/S : If you guys have realized, for the last two workshops I've attended both products are also originated from France. France FTW =w= lol

XOXO
