WHAT IS IT: Oilum Hydro-Rebalance Collagen Rejuvenating Body Cleanser
THE PRODUCT(S):
Oilum Hydro-Rebalance Collagen Rejuvenating Body Cleanser: Containing collagen which restores youthfulness and reduces the appearance of wrinkles. These wonderful skin and body products also help maintain moisture balance, suppleness and a healthy texture.
Natural ingredients from USA and Australia; Collagen to give youthful and wrinkle free appearance, Olive Oil which has natural nourishing and antioxidant benefits containing vitamin E which is a wonderful moisturiser, Lanolin which prevents excessive evaporation of moisture levels and is used as a soothing agent.
The cleanser looks pearl-white and the consistency isn't too watery not overly gel-like.
I love how this cleanser smooths and glides onto my skin easily, it suds up pretty decently and doesn't take much effort to wash it off either.
VERDICT: I somehow detected a light fruit-based scent to it and after sniffing various fruit-related items around the house, I somehow decided it should be a banana-ish scent. Although I personally do not like bananas at all, due to this one incident where I place a banana in my school bag and promptly forgotten all about it until a week later. Needless to say, a person can get scarred by a fruit for life when such an incident happened ^^; The scent itself isn't obnoxious to my standards when it comes to fruit-based scented cleansers and lotions. It's actually pleasantly mild without being too overly perfumed, or in other words, too heavily banana-scented.
I personally love how the cleanser glides smoothly onto my skin during shower and the fact that it lathers and suds up easily without too much effort at all. As the skin on my body is sometimes sensitive, I'm actually glad and happy that this cleanser doesn't irritate my skin at all, even hours after using this in the shower. On the contrary, it actually does help to moisturize my sensitive skin and a few days after usage, I realized that my skin isn't that dry too. In fact, it felt so soft and supple that I found myself constantly touching my skin just to confirm that it's still soft xD
And also, I found myself scratching my skin less often as compared to before. Prior to using this, I'm always constantly scratching here and there like a monkey since my skin's sensitive and sometimes, it can get overly dry which leads to skin irritation which in turn leads to endless scratching. But after using this, let's just say, there's no more "monkey business" going on as of now and I am definitely grateful. You don't know how embarrassing it is to be constantly scratching here and there due to skin sensitivity and irritations and the fact that people might misunderstood and thought that I didn't shower for ages ^^;
For the "collagen" part, I can't really say much since this is only a sample size tube I redeemed from Oilum via Facebook. Although I personally have to agree that this product scored quite a lot of points from my point-of-view that the "collagen" part should also work pretty well and decently.
VERDICT: ✓✓✓
WHAT I THINK: One of those rare body cleansers that not only doesn't irritate my skin, but actually helps moisturizes it as well.
WHERE TO REDEEM SAMPLE: I previously redeemed this Oilum sample from Oilum Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/OilumSG sometime in November last year (2012). Despite the sampling activity being over, I think you can try any Guardian pharmacy outlets throughout Singapore and see if they still sell the travel-sized kit that Oilum released after their sampling activity :)

Why not like my Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/PuNiaosProductReviews to be informed of latest samples I found, which is duly updated? Also includes updates to health, beauty & lifestyle tips at least once a day. It will definitely save you the trouble of having to hunt them down :)
I had to admit, it's a rather sad week from 01 Nov through to 10 Nov. There wasn't much samples I yanked out of my mailbox, and I thought I was so close to sample-withdrawal symptom. But on the other hand, I'm kinda glad I got spooked a little with Essentials, ended up filling out their sample request form 3 times within a span of less than a month and now, I have 3 sample kits for the Essentials trial kit. Haha! Maybe the lack of samples in my mailbox is also a blessing in disguise in another form, huh?
From time to time, I always find DIY recipes for making your own body scrub, bath salts, for example. And if you are someone who hated buying store-bought products due to issues such as parabens, for example, my PinInterest profile on my FB page will at-a-glance let you know where the DIY recipes can be located. Also perfect for some of us who might want to cut back on our spending and use ingredients available in our own kitchen for some natural remedies. My PinInterest profile can be accessed through this blog (on the left panel, under the Pu Niao's Social World header) and on the FB page as well.
As you know, being Fan of the Week will give you certain benefits/privileges, such as receiving samples that I mailed out to you. As it is still in the starting stage, more information will be released. And I would probably change it to Fan of the Month concept where a fan with the most contribution(s) will be eligible for goodies, courtesy of me~ So, stay tuned for more updates and information!
We all know what forums are for, everything under the Sun. Over at my FB page, I've included a Forum section for fans to share reviews on products they have used, especially the ones that are must-try and must-buy. And at the same time, do kindly remember that everyone is unique and therefore have their own views. If you dislike a particular product, do share the cons of it and the experience you have while using said product. Don't start attacking or trolling just because someone likes a product that you absolutely disliked.
Hello. My name is Riih Rion Pu Niao and I am a female blogger. I blog mainly about my personal opinions on beauty products, links to get free samples (in Singapore), monthly beauty topic(s) and other goodies related to beauty topics on this blog. What started out as curiosity back in April 2007 soon turned into serious blogging-mania for me.
Note that all photos featured in this blog are concentrated on the products itself, and I personally do not believe in trying to wrestle attention away from the products by constantly squeezing my mugshot in it. Photos are mostly and currently taken with a Canon Ixus 170 & Samsung Galaxy S7 and edited with Paint.Net & Giphy.
