Clinique Liquid Facial Soap with Pump (oily skin)

I bought this becasue I wanted to try 3 step system.  There was a promotion where I buy 1 full size product of one of the 3 steps and you get the 2 other sample size.  So I decided to buy this facial soap full size since I was running out of cleanser.  
Here's the description: All the benefits of Clinique’s famous dermatologist-developed facial soap in a new liquid formula. Preps skin for the exfoliating action of Clarifying Lotion. Convenient pump dispenses just the right amount.
It's $20 for 200ml, which lasts me more than 3 months with 1 pump per morning/evening and 2 pumps to get my makeup off. 

It comes in gel format:

and foams up to light foam:

My overall opinion is that it's just a decent cleanser.  Nothing special.  It actually dries out my skin a bit after washing.  I think in the 3 step system, the only good thing is the toner, which I'm planning to buy the full size version.  The moisturizing gel is not moisturizing enough for me, especially in the winter.  Anyways, i probably won't buy this again.... planning to try Philosophy Purity cleanser after ...

Chacott Finishing Loose Powder in Clear

Chacott Finishing Powder *No 1. loose powder in Cosmo Japan**

It's suppose to be extremely water proof , sweat proof

Natural and long-lasting

This is an older version, because I believe they have another one for HD.

This comes in 30g or 170g, which is HUGE.  The one i got is 30g, here's the size:

Here's a comparison between my palm and the size

It comes in 7 colors, and I got the clear one just to set my makeup.  This is very popular in Japan, a lot of japanese models use this.  And Chacott is originally designed for ballet dancers and on stage people who dance a lot, and have no time for touchups. 

This is just acts as a setting powder for me, so if you want more coverage, you can choose the ones with colors.

The powder is very fine, but I don't think the oil control part is strong enough, because I still have to blot few times each day. .... so I might try MAC blotting powder in the future ^^  I haven't tried that, but I heard a lot of good reviews about the blotting power~ so i think it will be good for me when i need to work, and no time for touchups.  But for normal going out, this would give you a natural look. 

This might look white and powdery when you first put it on, but after it'll just melt into your skin and look natural. Many good reviews for Chacott powder in asia, espeically japan and taiwan

I bought this on Yahoo!hk aucution for about $23CAD, totally cheap compare to the size.  And the good thing is it doesn't break me out. ^_^

Thank you guys! ^^

Rimmel London Moisture Renew - Nude Delight

Description:  Moisture Infusion: Innovative formula with 3 Super Moisturisers - Collagen, Polypeptides & Hyaluronic Acid deeply hydrates lips and improves their condition instantly and over time. Lips look and feel up to 70% more hydrated and up to 60% smoother - colour is maximised

I've only used this a few times, and so far I'm liking it ^^.  I actually rarely use lipstick especially when you need to eat, etc. Too lazy to touch up, etc.  I usually use lip gloss instead. But after watching another review from someone's beauty blog who used this color, I decided to give it a try.  I love the crown packaging:

It's not dry at all.  The texture is creamy and pigmented. 

Here's  a swap on my hand.  Really orangie nude

Left: nothing  , Right is Nude Delight
