My Packages for Today~~ X33

Annyeong!!

Few days ago I bought few products from Beautiyagie and Naturactor Collections~~ The products just arrived this evening ^^ I bought Naturactor Silky Lucent Powder from sis Zunita from Naturactor Collection because my powder almost finish. I already bought Octard Cover Foundation from her before and I really love these products. Will make a review about the both of them later~~

This time Beautiyagie sent me the Lovely Mix Baby Pink Blush Cushion from TheFaceShop. What surprised is that I'm the lucky winner for their Grand Opening!! They also sent me the Innisfree Premium Gift Set as lucky winner's prize, that contains The Green Tea Seed Serum, Green Tea Pure Skin, Green Tea Pure Lotion and The Green Tea Seed Cream. I don't know how to use them right now but I'll figure it out later and try them out. Of course, I'm going to review them later! X33 In addition, they also sent me free samples of White Secret Whitening Body Essence and Miracle Real Skin Finish.

Anyway, here are some pictures of the products. If anyone can teach me about how to use some of these products, please leave a comment! ^^

Etude House: Sun Prise Super Aqua SPF45

Hello!! ^^

Today I'm going to review about Sun Prise Super Aqua from Etude House. Before that, I want to tell everyone that this time I'm using camera lower than 5 MP. So, I edited the pictures to be a little brighter. I want to highlights here that I only edited the brighter part only. The pictures are a little bit blurry, so sorry about that~~

I got this sample from Beautiyagie when I bought some other products from them. They are so nice. Always give few samples for each time I bought anything from them. That means, I couldn't give a precise review on everything about this Sun Prise Super Aqua but I have done few readings and these is what I could tell you guys:

Description:
The Etude House Sun Prise Super Aqua SPF 45+++ is a waterproof sunscreen that refreshes your skin with peppermint extracts and protects the skin from the sun's harmful UVA and UVB rays. This light textured oil free sun protection relieves skin with Chlorella extracts without the greasy and heavy feeling that comes with sunscreens of similar strength.

Weight: 70 g

Direction:
Apply ample amounts of product onto face before sun exposure.

Other Says:
This is a sun cream that hydrates and blocks UV rays made by mangos teen peel and lotus extract. It is also provides a surge of moisture where it gives cooling sensation with non greasy formula. Also, apply this product lightly after use based products.

My Experience:
As you can see from above pictures, it is in white color. But after I blend it onto my skin it became like colorless, but it made you skin brighter if you look a little closer. It also gives your skin a little shine. After I brush some powder onto it, my skin became matte like it does look healthier ^^

To me it have a little lemon like smell, a little sour~~ it also doesn't give any coverage. So if you want some coverage, I suggest you put on your BB cream or foundation. Like the description said, it is oil free and lightweight. I didn't feel like wearing anything else except my face powder (I did put this product on my face). It gives my face a matte look, just like my hand above. I do like my face now, because it does look natural yet refreshing~~

Repurchase: Maybe~~ Need to look at other sunscreen first

Etude House: Golden Ratio Face Glam

Annyeong!!

Tonight I'm going to share a review about Golden Ratio Face Glam from Etude House . The one I bought is the Golden Ratio Face Glam #1 Gold from Beautiyagie online store for RM 49.90 . Honestly I don't know the price of this product at our local store. So, I can't make any comparison on prices. This product comes in 2 colors, Gold and Pink. Gold color is suitable for a normal Malay or darker skin. While the Pink color is more suitable for a fair Malay and Chinese skin. It is use as a highlighter to give your face a complexion glow.

Description:
Etude House's Golden Ratio aesthetic makeup line. This 2 in 1 highlighting base and brightening eye makeup accentuates facial features to beauty according to ideal proportions.
 
Weight (Base + Brightener): 40 ml + 4 g / 1.35 oz + 0.14 oz

Height: 6.8 cm

Tips:

1. Apply to T & C Zones and along cheekbones and spread across facial surface.
2. Apply to upper and lower eyelids and spread along eye region.

 Directions:

1. Base:  Use tip to gather and dispense onto palette surface. Use fingers to gather base makeup from palette surface and apply to face.
2. Eye Brightener: Use finger to gather and apply brightener to eye region.

Caution:
For external use only. Avoid contact with eyes. Keep out of reach of children. Discontinue use if signs of irritation and/or rash appear.

My Experience:
The case is bulky so I feel reluctant to bring it anywhere. Usually, I only wear it at home because they tend to lasts from morning to evening. This product is liquify so it is easily blend on your face (this one is easier to use than Tony Moly Luminous Goddess Aura Beam where the aura beam is more sticky - I'll make a review about this one when I got another sample ^^").

On the top is where the eye brightener were placed while on bottom is the base highlighter. There is a little round mirror placed under the cap, so it's convenient for you to put the eye brightener on. While for the base, a spatula attached to the top. You need a bigger mirror to put on the base highlighter. You only need to use a little of it because as you see for pictures above, one side of the spatula can cover half of your face. That means this one will lasts long enough. Instead of using my fingers, I use makeup brush for my eyes because it's easier to apply. The color also aren't that obvious, so for people who just looking for a glow on your face, you should try this one!

Repurchase: Will do!

*P/S: Will upload my picture wearing this one later ^^

Nature Republic: Soothing & Moisture Aloe Vera 92% Soothing Gel

Annyeong!! ^^

Today I'm going to make a review about Soothing & Moisture Aloe Vera 92% Soothing Gel from Nature Republic. Few months ago I'm having a skin crisis where my skin becoming thinner and dryer than before. I am worried about my skin condition so I ask a friend of my sister about skincare, since I don't know much about~~ She told me to try out this product because it's 92% organic aloe vera and can bring moisture to my skin. Moreover, this product are already got many good reviews about it. So, we went to the Nature Republic store at Times Square. We bought 2 for RM60.00 (it's on promotion), one for each of us. But you can buy it from online store, Beautiyagie for only RM27.00 . Mostly, the products they're selling are quite cheaper than from our local store. They can be trusted too. I already bought few times from them X33

Okay, back to our review~~

Description:

Abundant 92% aloe vera! Mild formula free paraben, mineral oil and artificial colors. This soothing gel with 92% organic aloe vera certified by California Certified Organic Farmers ( CCOF) can be use mildly to moisturize various parts of the body such as face, arms, legs and hair.

Weight: 300 ml / 10.14 oz

Directions:
Apply appropriate amount to dry, sensitive parts of the face and body often for the best results.

Cautions:
For external use only. Avoid contact with eyes. Discontinue use if  signs of irritations or rash appear. Keep out of reach of children. Replace cap after use.

My Experience:
First impression I got from this product is how cool it felt. Because it come from aloe vera, it got cooling effect. The second is how nice it smell. It only got aloe vera smell, but in a very nice way. It come from very bulky case but that's not a problem. You can put some of it into a more tiny case to bring it anywhere. Also, you need to use a spatula (not included) to keep it's hygiene. Use your creativity. Instead of buy one, why don't you use a plastic spoon?? Hehhehe, just a thought XP

As you can see, it got clear color (colorless). As you put some of it onto your skin, you can feel it's cooling effect. As it absorb into your skin, you can feel your skin tightening a little.

Usage:
1) Skin moisturizer.
2) Eye mask (brush some of it onto cotton pads then put the pads onto your closed eyes for around 20-30 minutes - your eyes will feel fresh).
3) Makeup base (blend it with your BB cream @ foundation with 2:1 ratio - your BB cream @ foundation becoming more moisture and it will blend on your skin evenly).
4) Lips essence (brush a little onto your cotton pad and then put it between your lips or bite it with your lips? ^^" for 10-15 minutes - your lips becoming softer like baby lips)

Repurchase: Absolutely, YES!!

The Face Shop: Face It Moisture Pore Balm

Hello!!
My first review is about Face It Moisture Pore Balm from Thefaceshop. The SA told me this one is used after using the skincare and before make ups. That means, it's a thin layer between your skin and makes up. It's just like a base make up or a primer. It tends to cover up your pores from make up particles clogging in.

Here are some pictures of the product. Sorry, I don't have pictures of it on my skin. My phone camera megapixels quite low (5mp). Even though I used it on my skin, my camera can't catch the differences.

 Description:
A moisturizing pore balm imparting porcelain-like smooth skin appearance without tightness by covering up pores and uneven skin surface. The smart oil control powder effectively covers pores without tightness for comfortable use. Phyto-moisturizing substances such as Lavender Flower Extracts and Aloe Ferox Leafs Extracts prevent evaporation of moisture within the skin to keep the skin moist and soft. Moisture Pore Balm glides onto the skin thinly and gently as if melting into the skin and leaves a silky-smooth finish for an even-surfaced skin texture.
* A moisturizing pore balm for all skin types for everyday use.

Weight: 17 g / 0.6 oz

Height: 2.3 cm

Directions:
After finishing up basic skincare and before beginning to apply color make up, dispense a small amount with the provided spatula and apply to parts with visible pores or uneven skin surface. Spread gently as if melting the balm.

Caution:
For external use only. Keep out of reach of children. Discontinue if signs of irritations or rash appear. Do not use on broken or abraded skin.

My Experience:
The packaging quite compatible, so you can bring it easily to anywhere and it's very light. Even though the balm is in pinkish color, when you apply it on your face it became colorless. It is easily melting on your skin so you don't need to use much of it. It does have a sweet and light smell but when you applied it on your face, the smells gone. It does make your make ups even and just put them lightly because with using this balm, your make up blends easily. You can feel your face smoother after using this balm. I have using it for 3 hours++, my make up still look fresh. But honestly, it's quite expensive for 17 g. It costs RM 59.90 at the local store but I got 30 % discounts (I think, can't really remember ^^"). I'm going to use this one on special occasion only~~ Hey, the sales is still on until August 2012. Look at here!

Repurchase: Absolutely!!

Hope everyone loves this review~~ Got any questions, just comment. I'll answer as well as I can. Good night!! X33

Hello Again~!!

Okay, before making any reviews I want to state here I'm a Malay. Above, is a picture of me with my nephew without editing. He's very handsome, isn't he?? Hehheheh~~ So, you can see that I have a normal Malay skin. Also, in there I only used basic make ups such as, pact powder, lip balm, lipstick and mascara.

An SA (store assistant) from a The Face Shop store at Rawang said that I have a combination skin, where my forehead, nose and chin areas quite oily while other areas very dry. But my skin gets really dry wearing make up, so I tend to buy make up that gives moisture. I hardly find suitable products for myself. Usually pimples showed up when I used the wrong products for my skin.

I think that's all for now. I'll add up later if I think of anything else!! Goodbye~~
