Beauty: Mentholatum Tsum Tsum Collection Is Finally Here!

Who's a fan of little cute Tsum Tsum by Disney? SQUEALS!!!


Recently, Mentholatum just launched their brand new Tsum Tsum Collection incorporating the adorable Tsum Tsum characters into their skincare products. I was so excited when I received the whole Mentholatum Tsum Tsum collection, because they look so lovely and the packaging is so 'kawaii'!

Check out some of the items from the collection below:


Mentholatum Tsum Tsum Face Wash 100g (RM 14.90)

There are two different variants for the face wash; Hydra & Whitening Face Wash and Pore Refining Face Wash.

I noticed that the Hydra & Whitening Face Wash brightens and evens out my skin tone after a few washes. I absolutely love the natural rose scent as this product contains Arbutin and Rose Extract.

The Pore Refining Face Wash minimizes pores and helps to balance the oil production on the face. With the hot & humid Malaysian weather, my face tends to get oily quickly and this face wash does help to cleanse my pores, as well as soothe my skin with its Aloe Vera Extract.



Mentholatum Tsum Tsum Face Mask Single Sheet (RM 7.90)

This product is available in four variants; Rose, Lavender, Honey and Tea Tree.

My favourite was the Lavender Mask which is suitable for sensitive and tired skin. These days, I find that my skin is quite dry. After using the mask, it really nourishes and replenishes my skin's moisture with its 4 types of Hyaluronic Acid. It calms my irritated skin and the redness over my T-zone was reduced after the mask.




Mentholatum Tsum Tsum Hand Cream 50g (RM 16.90)

The hand cream is available in three variants; Rose, Lavender & Jasmine. 

With the ultra-moisturising Almond Oil & Sunflower Seed Oil, this hand cream protects and nourishes your skin with every application. So soft and smooth after applying!

The texture of the hand cream is light and has a refreshing scent to it. This hand cream also helps to strengthen nails and prevent them from becoming brittle.

 

Mentholatum Tsum Tsum Fruity Lipbalm (RM 11.50)

Comes in fruity flavours such as Apple, Lime and Peach.

My favourite is definitely Apple flavour!

With Vitamin E, Argan Oil, Meadowfoam Seed Oil and other moisturising ingredients, this lipbalm smells good while deeply hydrating your lips. I like the smooth, lightweight texture and the best part, is that it is not sticky after application.
