Review: AFC Cho Beauty Inner Cleanse System


How Clean Are You Inside? Are your intestines aging faster than you are??

















If you experience any of the above 3 symptoms, your intestines are aging faster than you are.. and you may need to change your eating habits, incorporate a more healthy lifestyle, exercise regularly and/or consume some health supplements that can help to cleanse and detox our bodies from within...



Introducing AFC Cho Beauty.....























AFC Cho Beauty is a health and beauty supplement that contains an advanced culture of patented heat-treated FK-23 and highly stable Bifidus Bacteria to cleanse and eliminate harmful toxins for a renewed sense of wellness.

Directions of use:





































Content: 135g (4.5g x 30 sachets)


Price: $74.90 



My experience trying the product:


















Upon opening the box... I was greeted with 30 individual sachets of AFC Cho Beauty.




















Each sachet contains 4.5g of product. ( I really like the idea that the product comes in these handy individual sachets which is so convenient and easy to consume!)
























There are 2 ways to consume Cho Beauty. I will be showing you the "Mix with Water" method...  Just need a glass of water (150-200ml), a spoon and of course a sachet of Cho Beauty..





















^When I added a sachet of Cho Beauty into a glass of water (at room temperature) ..

























After stirring the powder well in water, I got a glass of Cho Beauty drink... Although it is stated as grapefruit flavour, I find that it tasted more like orange to me.. The above Cho Beauty drink tasted like a diluted orange drink, the taste is still acceptable to me though. (of course, you can add the sachet of Cho Beauty into your fruit juice or honey water according to your preference)

Ok, I mentioned that there are 2 ways to consume Cho Beauty. I also tried another method, that is by pouring the powder of sachet slowly directly into my mouth and following by drinking water. I have to say consuming Cho Beauty this way gives a different taste as compared to diluting it in a glass of plain water. While the latter gives a diluted orange taste, the former gives a stronger sweet-sour orange taste. 

(One word of caution, please do not pour the whole sachet directly into your mouth in one shot.. sure will choke, do it in small mouthful, drink water in between and enjoy the nice orangish after-taste!)

I alternate between these 2 methods depending on my mood/situation. If I see any bottle of water around me during the time I want to consume Cho Beauty, I will just use the "pour into my mouth" method ..faster and I do not have to use a cup.

For the past 2 weeks, I have been taking 2 sachets everyday. 1 sachet in the morning and 1 sachet at night, on an empty stomach, and I do experience smoother bowel movement. I used to go to toilet once a week, but now my constipation problem has greatly improved, and I now find myself experiencing very smooth defecation on almost every alternate day.  Plus NO diarrhoea effect!


My digestive system has improved and my stomach is not so bloated as before. My big tummy is still present but its now slightly flatter, I guess regular defecation helps! One of my main concerns is to improve my current problematic complexion, and I am happy that Cho Beauty has helped prevent new acne outbreaks. My pimples are now in the healing process. 

Good health begins with our intestines, Cho Beauty Inner Cleanse System is an all-natural solution to flush accumulated waste for a true sense of well-being.

Now let me show you more about the product and tell you how it is like....


















AFC Green Beauty comes in individual sachets (30 sachets in each box), very convenient and handy to carry a few sachets in our bags. We can prepare a beauty drink anytime anywhere.

It is mentioned that Green Beauty dissolves easily in hot or cold water .. I shall put that to test..normally powder do not dissolve well in cold water, no matter how well you stir the mixture..



















When I poured cold water into my glass, I think most of the powder had already dissolved. I just merely stirred the mixture for 2-3 seconds..Green Beauty powder just dissolves that easily in cold water without any clumps floating .. and there is no residue of the powder at the base of the glass.. Amazing! 

What do you think this beauty juice will taste like by looking at these pictures? Green Tea taste? Not really a green tea! I drink green tea almost everyday but this does not taste like any green tea.. A hard to describe taste actually..It can be tasteless at one sip, but taste sweet at my next sip.. In fact, after drinking so many glasses- both hot/cold green beauty drinks, I still cannot think of any drink/ingredient that is similar to the taste of Green Beauty..A unique taste of its own! 

For those of you who know me or have been reading my blog would know that I have pretty horrible constipation problems for years.. and Green Beauty drinks really helps aid my constipation, inducing smooth bowel movement. After taking Green Beauty drink every night before I go to bed for the past 3 weeks, I go to the toilet for defecation almost every day. I did not experience any stomach pain nor diarrhoea effect! And I can feel my complexion more radiant these days. Guess the dual-action formula in Green beauty helps, in the way of detoxifying my body and nourishing my skin at the same time. Happy me!

Besides making a beauty drink with AFC Green Beauty with hot/cold water, milk, honey or even soy milk, we can also use AFC Green Beauty to make delicious desserts - simply mix 1 sachet of green beauty with warm soy milk/milk to make a cup of Green Juice Latte, add green beauty into your yoghurt/vanilla ice cream for a healthy sweet treat, or try a simple yet refreshing crystal green jelly with this recipe:-

Introducing GoodSkin Labs Products..























Do you have the following skincare concerns? 
  • fine lines 
  • laugh lines
  • wrinkles, 
  • dark under-eye circles, 
  • fine lines around the eye areas
  • loss of skin volume and clarity,

If yes, then read on to find out more about the wonders of GoodSkin Labs products which I recently tried. The scientists at GoodSkin Labs have researched, developed and tested effective skincare technologies to provide consumers with the solutions that address aging skin’s unique needs.Each formula begins with highly innovative laboratory research and state-of-the-art, highly efficacious ingredients. Then, they’re put through a series of rigorous clinical testing on real people that offer the proof – not just promises – making sure each product delivers visible, measurable results so that consumers across the globe can be absolutely sure they’re getting the best. The result is powerful: highly effective, highly affordable products!  And GoodSkin Labs products are fragrance free and can be used by anyone to boost their anti-aging skincare regimen.







Introducing the four targeted skincare solutions ... 

LINES & WRINKLES - Tri-Aktiline™ Instant Deep Wrinkle Filler






















This is a targeted deep-wrinkle filler that is clinically proven to fill in the look of fine lines, lift, firm and hydrate instantly, while boosting skin’s natural collagen production over time. when I applied on my undereyes, the fine lines appear less obvious, somehow it blurred the fine lines..This product must use dab dab motion when applying, cannot rub or spread all over the eye areas/fine lines/ wrinkles. I do like the creamy and lightweight texture that combines a unique filling cream with spherical powders that together help eliminate the appearance of wrinkles on contact. Dab/Tap (but not rub) it on and watch them fade away. Instantly!

Three state-of-the-art ingredients – combined!
  • Gatuline® Expression helps relax the look of facial tension and expression lines.
  • Kombuchka™ PH Extract plumps and smoothes wrinkles.
  • Argireline® prompts skin into its re-build mode, boosting natural collagen production for visible results.

How to use: 
After cleansing, lightly tap the cream directly into wrinkles, and let it set before applying other 
treatment products or makeup. For best results, use twice a day.

EYE CARE - Eyliplex-2 Eye Lift + Circle Reducer 




















This is a two-part eye system that addresses eye area concerns, from lifting and tightening to wrinkles, around the clock. One side (white cap) for day use and the other side (the blue cap) meant for night use. 






















The refreshing day gel visibly lifts and tightens eye area skin. You can actually feel it working! My eyes look smoother and moisturised after application. This jade green colored gel just blend effortlessly into skin using light tapping motions. 


The creamy night balm smells a bit like mint (a wee bit) but I guarantee it will not cause any uncomfortable sensation upon application. Like the day gel, this night balm also blend into skin like a dream. After several weeks of use, I do find my dark circles lightened and the skin around my eye area to be smoother. This product actually reminds me of my Laneige dual eye cream which I used in the past.. Normally an eye cream comes in 15ml tub/tube.. but Eyliplex-2 Eye Lift + Circle Reducer contains 20ml (2x 10ml) of product for both the day gel and night balm. This is a good eye care product to get if you do not mind the hassle and inconvenience of an eye cream in a tub form.. which mean we need a spatula or a cotton bud to help us scoop up the product from the container before using it each time. 

2 breakthrough formulas, one convenient package

Day Gel 
  • Suberlift™ visibly lifts and tightens the eye area nearly erasing the look of wrinkles on contact by filling them in on the surface of the skin. 
  • Advanced Rho-Cite™ Complex is a cocktail of antioxidants and minerals that fortifies the skin's structural system and helps defend it against daily environmental stressors.
Night Balm
  • Haloxyl PFE™ is a new powerful extract to help reduce the appearance of dark circles and restore firmness while sleeping.
  • Mala-Plump™ Complex, another unique cocktail of minerals and antioxidants, helps combat free radicals and environmental aggressors while also boosting skin's natural collagen production.


How to use: 
  • Morning: Gently pat onto skin. Let dry for 3 minutes. 
  • Night: Pat on sparingly. Blend gently.

CLARITY & BRIGHTENING - Smooth-365 Intensive Clarity + Smoothing Peptide Serum
























This is a skin perfecting super serum and anti-aging treatment that offers instant improvement to the overall quality of skin’s texture, while firming and reducing the look of lines over time. It really makes my skin so smooth as it helps to brighten my skin, and minimizes skin imperfections . I use this non-greasy serum before applying Facial Revolumizing Treatment. 


Smooth-365™ improves skin 3 different ways, 365 days:
  • Clarity-promoting extracts perfect skin tone for a more uniform, translucent complexion.
  • Optical diffusers instantly, weightlessly and invisibly blur imperfections, lines and wrinkles.

Filextra Facial Revolumizing Treatment with Collagen is an all-over facial moisturizer that helps visibly rebuild youthful volume skin has lost over time.  It’s the ideal daily moisturizer for tired, sallow, sagging skin.














A light beige colored cream with super-micro beads but surprising these dot-like bits dissolve and disappear after messaging onto skin. It leaves a nice sheer brightening effect to my skin while moisturising my skin. 

All New Triple-Action Reconstruction Technology.

  • Rebuilds. HyActive™, a topical form of an ingredient used in dermatologist treatments, triggers skin to stimulate natural Hylauronic Acid production while Natural Collagen Boosters help create a more supportive, more stable skin structure.
  • Refills. Aqualance™, a GoodSkin Labs discovery, helps replenish skin’s H2O to optimal levels to restore youthful plumpness where fullness has been lost.
