I read from a beauty forum that www.mypharmacy.com.sg, the online pharmacy arm of the Changi General Hospital is offering discounts on some Therapeutic Dermatologic Formula (TDF) creams.
I had used TDF skincare products before and find that their AHA skincare products work for my face.
I am currently using their AHA Facial Wash For Oily & Acne Prone Skin which is Formulated with 4% glycolic acid, 0.5% chlorhexidine and aloe vera.
Besides that I am also using in certain nights, their AHA Oily & Acne Solution 8 which has 8% glycolic acid solution and is specially formulated for oily and acne prone skin. This comes in the form of water clear solution which is poured over a cotton pad and then wiped over the face.
Actually my personal preference is for that of their AHA Revitalizing Cream 8 which is suitable for dry to normal skin type, this silky cream contains 8 per cent glycolic acid. I have extremely oily skin but i prefer the cream based AHA rather than the solution cos cream sticks better and longer on the face.
Once a fortnight or so, I would applied the AHA Revitalizing Gel 15 whose formulation contains 15 per cent glycolic acid and is used to treat oily and thickened dead skin cells. My skin doctor did advised me to use this once a week or so cos the acid is too strong for normal daily usage. She did suggested that AHA 15 be used as a 15 min mask and then washed off. But then since i have never got any serious peeling or flaking, i just left the gel overnight.
Some weeks back, i got information that polyclinics are having a 25 % sale on TDF products. So, I went down to the nearest polyclinic and got myself the C Scape Serum 50ml + 30 ml. The usual price for the 50ml is $110. The 30 ml is bundled free and is worth about $65. And since there is the free 30ml promotion, there is no 25% discount for this product during the sale.
This C Scape Serum contains 10% Vitamin C, which is essential for the production of collagen and elastic tissue that keep the skin taunt, supple and healthy. It is also an anti-oxidant which neutralizes harmful free radicals, helps reduce fine lines, wrinkles due to sun-damage or skin aging and also lighten skin complexion. However, it must be kept in the fridge or the gel will oxidise and turn a dark color.
I also got a small tube of their Eye Refining Matrix, which is about 15ml and originally cost $69 and is now $45 plus after discount.
--------------------------------
Of all the products, i love the C scape the most. After a few days of using, my skin has become softer and fairer. The product has a watery consistency and has a citrusy smell.
--------------------------------
Anyway, after surfing for sometime on the mypharmacy website, i bought TDF High Potency Lightening Cream LHM 20g Buy 1 Get 1 Free. Price is $49.90 for 2 during the sale.
This cream works as an intensive skin lightening treatment with breakthrough formulation of Hydroquinone, Nethyl Gentisate and Kojic Acid, which deeply penetrates the skin, targeting and elimating stubborn dark spots and pigmentation. Blended with natural ingredients like Licorice Extract, it helps to provide anti-inflammatory effects and is an effective component for skin lightening.
I also bought the stronger version TDF High Potency Lightening Serum With LHK 30ml Buy 1 Get 1 Free. The cost is $68.14 for 2 during the sale. This has a strong combination of 4 per cent Lactic Acid, 4 per cent Hydroquinone and 3 per cent Kojic acid, this higher strength skin lightening product is recommended as a step-up for difficult pigmentation problems like age freckles spots and melasma.
This cream is also sensitive to light and needs to be stored in the fridge.
Total damage today is $118.04.
Frankly, they promise delivery within 2 days. And that they would call to arrange delivery schedule.
2 days...that would mean friday or saturday......Can't wait!
