Sensai Premier
The Body Cream
A meltingly rich formulation that caresses the skin, senses and spirit. Contributes to renewed firmness, silkiness and radiance in the body skin.
I just learned that Kanebo Cosmetics launched a new product for Autumn/Winter 2008. It’s under the Sensai Premier line, The Body Cream.
Reading up on the product, it tells mystic description of having been inspired by the enduring mystique of the moon in all its phases. Sounds poetic, eh? Of course, looking into the actual product, it’s formulated to reach deep inside the skin which will support DNA repair functions and reverse aging. It promises a renewed firmness, silkiness, and radiance in the skin all over.
SENSAI SILK, Basic and Special Treatment Sets

Discovering the SENSAI SILK line has made me realise just how important cleansing and moisture are to our skin. Aging is, after all, one thing we cannot control. It will happen. No one is excused from it. The best we can do is how we can age gracefully. And it terms of our skin, we ought to consider the important things.
I’m certain that there are other skincare options out there but for now, since I’ve come across one that presents a good argument, I’d like to feature what this brand is offering. Boslter skin’s defences, minimise corrective action later, and preservation of youthful skin; firmness of skin. I’m certain we all find wrinkles, lines and sagging cumbersome to manage.
So here are a couple of treatment sets that will probably teach us how to do just that.

SENSAI SILK Basic Treatment Set
The SENSAI SILK Basic Treatment Set gives you a complete kit of essential items to begin your anti-ageing programme from today. It features a bestselling cream and a lotion for “Double Moisturising” and a special edition sheet mask fro extra care. Because proper cleansing is paramount for keeping your skin in optimal condition, we have also included two items for “Double Cleansing”.
SENSAI by KANEBO New Brush Concealer: Treatment Makeup

Kanebo Sensai Brush Concealer: Treatment Makeup
SENSAI Concealer is enriched with Kanzo (licorice) Extract, a traditional medicinal herb taken from the root of the licorice plant and used to gently soothe blemishes and help prevent irritation. A second key component is Moistened Powder, a unique powder pre-moistened and coated with oil that helps to retain the natural oil in the skin. Silk Extract—prevents moisture loss and allows for a smooth application—and Weightless Glow Factor, is an exquisite, feather-like powder with thin, flat granules which provide smooth coverage and which cause light to reflect evenly off your face. The Concealer also now includes the exclusive Koishimaru Silk Extract which provides superior moisturizing to the skin. Koishimaru Silk was once only reserved for the Imperial Family of Japan, Kanebo was granted the rights to work with this precious fiber.
Received word that this brush-type concealer is coming next month. They claim that they’ve re-engineered this makeup to help better reverse the signs of aging. Certainly caught my attention. I’ve always been intrigued with Kanebo and checking out the unique features, the brush-on applicator and pen-like design, peaked my curiosity even more. I reckon it’s built for easy application and mobility. I’m not sure if it’ll be too bulky compared to the usual tubes or pots that concealers usually come in.
Total Lip Treatment, Kanebo SENSAI Cellular Performance

Kanebo
SENSAI Cellular Performance
Total Lip Treatment
Promotes collagen synthesis and quality in the “O-Zone” area on and around the lips. Minimises dullness, repairs roughness, and leaves lips plumped up and smooth.
Earlier, I was curiously checking out my lips. I reckon it’s one of those wear-no-makeup days that you find yourself feeling utterly lousy and growing a need to self-deprecate while staring at your reflection. Pah. Imagine me saying “I’ve got such ugly lips. They’re too dark and chappy and heavily wrinkled. I feel so old.” in a whingy voice while looking at a mirror conveniently located on the sun visor of the car. Poor boyfriend who had to sit through it. LOL.
Anyway, my way of taking care of the problem was to dab on some lip balm, both for moisture and some colour. However, I know I needed something more substantial than a bubble gum remedy. So, off I went in search for options.
I found one in my inbox. Cool. Hehe
Kanebo is a world-renowned anti-aging skincare brand and they offer Total Lip Treatment from their Cellular Performance skincare kit under the SENSAI brand.
Haircare: Kanebo Sensai Intensive Hair Mask

Kanebo Sensai
Intensive Hair Mask
Rich, extra care for severely damaged hair. Contains 10 oriental herbal extracts to hydrate, nourish, and aid recovery from within.
I have to admit that after a couple weeks, I’m beginning to worry about my hair again. I’m afraid that the cut isn’t really “growing” as well as I had expected. I’m looking into scheduling another appointment with the hairstylist for a touch-up session, hopefully, get the hair cut right.
With my new short hair, I’m seeing myself using more of the blow dryer and styling products to make sure the hair falls in the right places. However, we all know the risks we take if we do just that. Hair will then be prone to damage.
Tube, Pot or Stick? The Search for the Right Form of Foundation

The Makeup Stick Foundation
Shiseido
A creamy stick foundation that glides on effortlessly providing medium coverage and a long-lasting, lustrous natural finish while offering exceptional skincare benefits. Provides UV ray protection with SPF 15-18. Conceals fine lines and imperfections. Contains Multi-Nutrient Factor, an advanced moisturizer. Recommended for all skin types.
Cream foundations usually come in tubes or sticks. Powder or cake foundations com in pots. I know it’s not whether it comes in either tube, pot or stick. It’s either you’re comfortable in using cream, powder or cake. Or if you’re comfortable using any foundation at all.

Face Care 101: Double Cleansing
August 4, 2007 by Sasha Manuel
Filed under Makeup
If there’s one thing that I’m particular about, it’s washing my face. That’s probably why I’m always on the look out for the best facial wash, makeup remover, or skin toner. I like cleaning my face. I often make it a point to wash my face when I get up in the morning (or night, as the case may be) and yes, I try to wash it within the day if I feel icky.

I’ve heard it said before that you shouldn’t wash your face more than twice a day, reason being is that it will dry up your skin. I’m not quite sure if there’s any truth in that but I was a bit alarmed by it. However, I reckon moderation is key. Now, I only wash my face before going to bed, when taking a bath, after waking up or when I’ve perspired or need to remove my makeup. All reasons seems valid to me, don’t you agree?
Anyway, I came across this wash technique, Double Cleansing, that makes it easy for a person to see the important areas that need cleaning. As you can see, it’s not merely putting the foam on the face and rubbing that does the deed but there are ways to make sure you’ve done it properly.
