Started this blog to keep track of all the makeup skincare bloggers that I follow. Although in recent years people seems to be switching to Weibo, Instagram, Twitter and other faster and shorter ways to blog. Skincare, makeup, Asian makeup, empties, hit the pan.

山寨美容仪器 I
1. EVIS MD BLUE LIGHT (ACNE) Therapy
买这个纯属我脑袋进水莫名其妙的买地,所以说太压制自己的购买欲望太久也不好,等大爆发的时候就买一堆没用的。
看看官方说法:
EVIS MD PLATINUM BLUE emits the appropriate wavelength at optimal power intensity to address mild to moderate inflammatory Acne as well as occasional breakouts. Unlike most topical treatments, EVIS MD PLATINUM BLUE delivers medical grade performance with no irritation or side effects. With consistent use, you will begin to see a clearer, flawless, more radiant complexion. Long term benefits are cumulative over time. EVIS MD PLATINUM BLUE treatments are completely safe, easy and effective with no side effects. EVIS MD PLATINUME BLUE is non-thermal, non-ablative, non-invasive and requires no down time. Treatments are both corrective and preventative. BLUE treatments are completely safe, easy and effective with no side effects.
Directions
Begin your treatment on clean, dry skin. The device will beep every 3 minutes to help time the treatment. It automatically shuts off after 6 minutes and may immediately be switched on to continue treatment if desired. We recommend a minimum of one treatment (18 minutes for Blue) per week for 8 weeks. You may safely increase treatments to as often as desired. To achieve the full potential and cumulative effect, after the initial 8 week period, it is recommended that you continue treatments as des
用法说法和一般市面上的蓝灯是一样,照照就把引发痘痘的细菌杀掉了。 我自己的心得呢是对一些不是太深的痘痘有效,对一些细菌有效。但是慢~~~ 个人比较喜欢用comfrey把痘痘激发出来再挤干净的暴力手法。这个灯太温和+慢了点。 和正品有啥不同,我、想就是手感和手把那里会变热吧。300块的baby quasar应该不会变热的那么块。至于灯的部分嘛,都是一样wavelength (颜色)的LED灯。 EDS上还有人自己找工程师做个custom made therapy tool呢。
由于这个东西没啥好说的,我就录了一段video. 第一次录没经验,原本以为相机上的video standard setting就够了,结果放到电脑上看才看出来很不清楚。 大家笔下留情。

what does ultrasonic wave, ionizer do?
freakin amazing information
如果你还只是程序化的将瓶瓶罐罐涂抹上皮肤作为每天的护肤,那你的护肤方式可有些 落后了。叠加式的护肤保养,每个女人都熟背能详,想要比别人更年轻,那就要来学习“导入”这款法宝。使用同一款护肤品,有没有导入,皮肤给你的脸色大不一 样,深入皮肤基层的导入促进皮肤对保样品的吸收,可以消除水肿,帮你大脸变小脸,更让皮肤从内在焕发水样的自信光泽。那什么是导入,到底你适合怎样的导 入,导入要怎样做,看完以下的导入关键点,你也可以成为导入达人。
初入级,了解导入:
仪器的导入可以分为离子导入和超音导入,两种导入的原理各不相同,因而你可以按照自己的美容要求选择适合的导入仪器。
我们的皮肤会排斥带电或者水溶性的离子,离子导入利用产生电荷的接触面让皮肤电荷改变的原理,原本因为带电不容易被皮肤吸收的水溶物质被导入皮肤中。同时,因为带有电荷的缘故,水溶物质更容易被瞬间带电的肌肤吸收。离子导入的仪器一般有2种波段,一段是深层清洁,另外一段是导入,也就是正点和负电,正点用来清洁,负电负责导入。离子导入的优点在于他是双向的,不过适合离子导入的产品非常有限,因为物质状态必须是离子的,而且可以带电的和水溶的,大部分离子导入仪都只能选择可以溶于水的左旋c做导入。
超音波导入是利用声波一秒钟达到百万次的震动 频率,深入皮肤基层达到让保养品层层渗透的原理。依据微震动以及加强局部皮肤循环来加强护肤品吸收,这个肉眼观察不到的无痛注射,能帮助皮肤达到焕然一新 的效果。离子导入会有些刺激,敏感的皮肤会觉得痛痛的,而超音波导入就很温和,超音波导入较适合搭配油性基质的产品,比如平时我们用的精华液,面霜和静油 产品,超音导入的范围使用更为宽广。
中学级,操作上路:
先用洁面产品给皮肤做一个基本的清洁,可以用 去角质的化妆水擦拭,角质去除干净更容易导入,然后拍导入液,用比平时多一倍的抗老或者美白精华擦全脸,保湿反而没有必要导入哦,因为保湿只是停留在皮肤 表层的,无法吸收入皮肤基层。尽量选择一些原液类的产品,不要用含有过多的防腐剂的成分,否则,防腐剂也就一并被导入你的皮肤。在精华层被吸收了以后,再 擦大量的凝胶面霜作为导入的媒介,将超音波导入调到Lo档,从额头开始,以画圈的手法从中间往两边慢慢化动。导入器的按摩头一定要和皮肤完全接触,导入的出力面和肌肤成直角,不断的移动,作用到皮肤的每一个细胞,如果停止移动会因为频率太强造成反效果。
全脸导入的时间必须控制在10分钟左右,遵循以下的每个部位的安排,一定不会错。
按摩走向,建议时间:
从额头中心往上,额头部位从左向右以横向划圈方式按摩(1分钟之内)
脸颊轮廓提升--从下巴前端朝太阳穴往上的移动(3分钟之内)
脸颊,眼部--由下巴前端往两侧由下往上斜侧移动(3分钟之内)
脖子--避开喉结位置,由锁骨位置开始,从下往上按摩(4分钟之内)
双下巴--从下巴中心向耳跟移动,或从脖子开始往上,避开侯捷位置(整个下巴五分钟之内)
眼袋,黑眼圈--避开眼球,从鼻中间,两侧横向由内向外移动(1分钟之内)
斑点--在有斑点的位置稍作加强,沿着斑点有里向外的方向移动,千万不要停留在斑点处按摩(2-3分钟)
皱纹--由下往上,顺着皮肤的纹路拉提
想对比导入的效果到底有多明显,那就先做单边脸的导入,在5分钟的导入后,面对镜子,你能惊讶的发现做过导入的一边,皮肤紧实了,发令纹减淡了,脸颊的轮廓线条被提拉了,如果是水肿型的脸,更会对比到,脸居然变小了。很神气吧,这就是简单的导入带给自己的变化,100万次的震动让皮肤自然的收紧,同时加倍吸收精华液的宝贵成分。
每款超音波导入上都有Lo和Hi两挡,Lo的频率适合脸部的皮肤,那Hi就可以在你得心应手掌握导入方法后,发挥做塑身功效了。首先还是先控制导入的时间,身体以不超过20分钟为标准,分配每一个你想要塑的部位。
腰和下腹,从两面往中心,以下往上为基本手法,肚脐周围则顺时针方向划圈(20分钟内)
大腿及臀部:从下往上移动,避开膝盖部位,将松弛的部位,慢慢上推,移动速度加快。(10分钟内)
手臂,以手臂内侧为中心,从手肘往肩部画圈上移(5分钟内)
小腿,从脚尖往脚踝,再由小腿肚往上移动(5分钟内)
胸部,由下往上轻推向锁骨,或由中间往外打圈移动(5分钟内)
有不适合做导入的情况吗?
有心脏疾病或者装有起搏器、生理期和怀孕时期、皮肤有炎症或出血时以及儿童不适合导入。
为了加强导入效果,可以先做深层清洁面膜,然后使用导入吗?
不可以,做完深层清洁面膜后,皮肤比较敏感,不适合再用高频率的导入护肤,只需要用化妆棉擦拭轻微去角质就可以做导入了。
怎么判断导入仪已经开始工作了呢?
将导入仪的开关调到ON,在金属的探头上滴上一滴水,当看到水滴开始震动或者雾化的表现,就说明导入仪已经开始工作了。
家用导入仪和美容院的导入仪有什么区别?
家用的导入仪是美容院导入仪的四分之一功率,所以两者的疗效并不相同,家用的比较适合2-3天使用一次,美容院的则可按疗程分配时间。
市面上一些带有导入功效的护肤品可以替代导入仪吗?
并不可以。而且两者对导入的概念是完全不同的,导入仪是用声波来导进护肤品的精华,但是护肤品本身并无法带有导入功能。一些带有导入功效的护肤品,实质含有去角质的成分,在去除角质的同时,加强皮肤对产品的吸收,敏感的皮肤更要慎用。
如何选择一款合格的导入仪?
合格的导入仪应该有着完整的合格证书,备有变压器以及产品说明,可以用滴水的方法察看导入仪可否正常工作,更要仔细察看接触皮肤的金属头是否平整光滑。
导入仪的清洁要怎么做?
每次做完导入后,要用软布擦拭金属触头,将残留的面霜和精华去除干净,用酒精棉球为金属头消毒会更安全。

Ultrasonic massager
| ULTRASONIC / ULTRASOUND BEAUTY MASSAGERS |
| NOW! ULTRASOUND FOR A BEAUTIFYING MASSAGE |
| Ultrasound has long been well known in Medicine, but only more recently in Beauty. It has brought surprising innovation to beauty care, with its triple-impact effectiveness. |
| Massaging by hand, finger pressure, etc., in traditional salons wasted too much time for too little effect. Freeing us of all that labor, ultrasound permeates into the deep texture of the skin, even reaching muscle and fat layers, with warmth, microvibration, and cavitation, for a new revivifying effect. |
| As we age, the top layers of our skin lose more moisture. Older skin renews itself every four to six weeks, while young skin renews every three to four weeks. This older skin has a dry and dehydrated appearance, resulting in fine wrinkles and age spots. You ask yourself, what can I do to revitalize my skin? The answer is easy: |
| ULTRASONIC / ULTRASOUND BEAUTY MASSAGE In only 10-15 minutes daily, you'll see and experience dynamic changes in your face: your skin will appear more youthful, smooth and healthy with this intense form of care. Ultrasound Beauty Massagers reach deeply into the skin. Although invisible to the eye and undetectable by our skin, Ultrasound Beauty Devices radiate micro-vibrations, which are often used to help stimulate the body's recovery from illness and injury. Waves of ultrasound can also reach fats, built up in areas such as lower abdomen, hips, thighs, calves or double chin. |

Watch for the three bio-effects of Ultrasound Beauty Massagers:
VIbration:
Ultrasound waves, at tremedous speeds, have an effect on tissue just like that of massage. We usually call this mechanical effect micro-massage. It can be applied equally to surface tissues (like skin) or deeper tissue that underlies our beauty structure, such as muscle and fat deposits.
Warming Effect:
Warmth is produced by vigorous friction of the molecules in high-speed vibration. Warmth has long been recognized for its skin-freshening and enhancing properties, as well as its virtues in controlling pain and promoting healing.
Cavitation:
The effects of ultrasound on fluids are to promote the production of tinier and tiner droplets, or micro bubbles, which faciliate and energize processes like cleansing, absorption, and dissolving of nutrients and moisturizers.

| HOW IS ULTRASOUND/ULTRASONIC MASSAGE APPLIED IN BEAUTY TECHNIQUE? |
|
| Ultrasound beauty exploits the same technology which doctors use in antenatal scans for pregnant women, pain-killing effects, and possible benefits to healing of fractures and scar tissue - but in its beauty application it penetrates a few millimeters beneath the skin to reach the adipose tissue where cellulite is trapped. Muscle and bone have been found to absorb more ultrasonic energy than other heterogeneous tissues, because they better reflect the longitudinal waves of ultrasound, transforming them into transverse waves to create a warming massage effect. This happens most commonly in the areas between muscle and bone or between the muscle and tendon. |
homework La Mente

i've been doing some serious homework on this:
so basically the most famous one is la mente, which you can purchase from japan webstores for 200 some dollars, it's retailed for $399 in official store. or you can purchase a set for $500 from the official t.w. store but no warranty for international buyers. you can however, ship the set to a taiwan location to obtain the one year warranty.

purchase from tw
http://esearch.rakuten.co.jp/rms/sd/esearch/vc?sv=2&sitem=la+mente
from japan
other choices: runve 导入niu er apparently advertised it on the Queen show, it's available through easypay;
then i came across of this name: Facemate, readily available through US amazon or Ebay of the same seller. i have no doubt the seller is very legit, it is the authorized seller and offers warranty. There's alot of information on this through EDS forum, i'm still reading them through.
couple of things to know regarding this brand, it is TAIWAN made, it has no infrared function-> apparently the red light function is very expensive and that's what separate la mente from the rest of its peers. But Facemate does have ultrasonic waves with 2 settings (1MHz and 3 MHz), and 2 heads (the round metal part) for both face and body. I wanna use ultrasonic waves to melt away my fat~~~~
and ultrasonic gel are plenty available and super cheap on Amazon. Another thing about Facemate is the instruction manual is very vague, so i would recommending reading through EDS forum before purchase. But the setting seems very similar to La Mente, so i think i would have no issue figuring out what "median" to use with which function.then another name poped up, Fyola. it's almost 400 bucks, korean made, has very different setting than Facemate or La Mente. here's the compairson i found http://www.amazon.com/FaceMate-Ultrasonic-Face-Skin-Massager/dp/B000X2FS9S (read the review part).
So here's all the homework i've done up to this point, i am seriously interested in purchasing Facemate because of its price point, availability, warranty and support. With Fyola, seriously, if i'm going to spend 400 bucks on a beauty machine, i would buy the japanese one. La mente is nice but i don't feel comfortable purchasing an expensive high-tech machine without warranty or readable intructions...well, mostly because it's too expensive.
if you are interested in high-tech beauty machines, i would recommend reading through EDS forums. The girls on that forums are unbelievably well-trained in all kinds of beauty machines.
---------
these are just my humble opinion, i haven't finish researching and haven't made a purchase yet.
La mente is definitely the most high-tech and sophisticated machines out of all three, with the most functions, the ability to use ALL functions at the same time, and at 5Mhz wavelength is probably the safest.
