[REVIEW] Opera Lip Tint 01 Red

Opera Lip Tint 01 Red Review:

Having placed first in both the well-respected 2017 Cosme Best Cosmetics Awards Mid-Year and Year-End in the lip tint category, it’s clear that Opera is doing something amazing with their lip tints. Everywhere you go in Japan, you will find people pulling out these lip tints for touch ups. A friend that I talked had gone through four of these already!

Sheer lip tints are perfect for an everyday look because of their ease of application without the compromise of color. The Opera Lip Tints also promise lasting wear without the stickiness or dryness that lip tints are often prone to.

Is this too good to be true?

[REVIEW+SWATCHES] Opera Sheer Lip Color N 22 Natural Pink N

Opera Sheer Lip Color N 22 Natural Pink N Review:

Japanese lip products are famed for their great application and moisturizing properties, and Opera in particular has been one of the must-have brands among the sea of unending lip tints, lipsticks, and liquid lipsticks.

Their Sheer Lip Color is perhaps lesser known than their famed Lip Tint, however, that absolutely does not speak to the quality and performance of the former.

So how does it fare?

[REVIEW] Innisfree Seaweed Moist Soothing Mask Jeju Sea Mustard

Innisfree Seaweed Moist Soothing Mask Jeju Sea Mustard Review:

The second seaweed mask from Innisfree that they made for this summer! I had already reviewed the previous and am very curious as whether there are any differences or if they are basically the same mask with different ingredients. They also made two cooling masks, but that’s another story.

This mask is supposed to be rich in hydration with sodium hyaluronate, hydrolyzed collagen, and seaweed extract, so in theory it’s the perfect mask for me!

[REVIEW] Peripera Pure Blushed Liquid Cheek 04 Mood Nude

Peripera Pure Blushed Liquid Cheek 04 Mood Nude Review:

I think I never tried any blush from Peripera before. After I did a research about their blushes, they only had 1 powder blush I believe but that was way long ago even before Peripera re-branding their brand. Since that, they always releasing either creams or liquid blushes which I’m not too fond of.

But one day I stumbled upon a YouTube video from a Korean beauty blogger reviewing this blush and I fell in love immediately with the color range! And based from the swatch, it looks they have a good pigmentation as well.

They have 6 shades in the collection and for me, they really did well with the shade selection. They have 2 warmer shade such as red and coral, 2 neutral shades such as brownish n*de and beige, and for the last 2 shades they made it in cooler undertone like pink and lilac.

If I’m not mistaken, this is their newest blush so I think you can get it pretty easy from the official store or even from online seller.

[REVIEW] The Face Shop Single Blush BR01 Dust Rose

The Face Shop Single Blush BR01 Dust Rose Review:

It took me a while to get my hands on The Face Shop’s Single Blush in Dust Rose, just because it is so darn popular. It was sold out all the time in Hong Kong and restocking takes forever, so imagine my surprise when I saw hundreds of these blushes at one of The Face Shop branches in Myeongdong!

Clearly it’s a well-loved product, best known for its shade in Dust Rose (#BR01) which has a more sophisticated vibe that works well with pretty much any bold eye or lip look in providing a natural flush of color.

[REVIEW+SWATCHES] Innisfree Vivid Cotton Ink 06 Light Beige Tulip

Innisfree Vivid Cotton Ink 06 Light Beige Tulip Review:

I’m sure most of you have heard about the infamous Vivid Cotton Ink from Innisfree. Back then, they only have 5 shades for the collection but they were getting popular and Innisfree decided to add 5 more shades. The first 5 shades are your typical ‘Korean shade’ which are pinks, reds, and oranges but the newer shades consist of various tones such as beige, brown, and terracotta.

I saw a lot of Korean beauty bloggers were reviewing the tints and I can’t lie that the shades are really gorgeous! So when I was at my local Innisfree store, I got a chance to swatch all the colors there and based by the swatch only, I really like it.

This fall, Innisfree once again added 5 more new shades. All the shade has fall vibe with darker tones but since I don’t like dark lip color, I opted to get the lighter shade instead. The price isn’t that high either, if you are familiar to Innisfree then you won’t be surprised by the price.

[REVIEW] Femmue Repairing Creamy Foam Cleanser

Femmue Repairing Creamy Foam Cleanser Review:

I bought this on my visit to their store a million years ago, and oddly enough I used it fast once I actually started using it. This whole tube lasted me… around two months? Which is quite fast for a foam cleanser. The design is beautiful, the promises are nice, and the brand is a favorite of mine so, of course, after using it I had to write about it.

[REVIEW] MITOMO Uruuru Soy Bean Essence Mask

MITOMO Uruuru Soy Bean Essence Mask Review:

Well, have you ever heard this brand MITOMO? Just ask, because I have never heard this brand before. Based on what I read, MITOMO is a brand from Japan and surprisingly it has its own website, quite proves its credibility. However, I didn’t buy this product in Japan but during my holiday trip in Taiwan. MITOMO sheet mask caught my attention because of its simple yet minimalist packaging, and after reading further, I found no harmful ingredients in it. There are various ranges of MITOMO sheet masks; soy bean, wine, snail, etc. I chose soy bean since I rarely found a soy bean variant in other sheet masks’ brand

[REVIEW] Mamonde Day Relief BB Cream SPF 50+ PA+++ Light Beige

Mamonde Day Relief BB Cream SPF 50+ PA+++ Light Beige Review:

Mamonde is actually a brand that I don’t know much about, of course I’ve heard their name a lot but I still didn’t know much about them. I always think of their products having lots of floral components and concepts. I’ve also seen their name or products advertised in dramas, but usually when I’m watching a drama I don’t pay much attention to the products advertised. Lately I’ve been quite curious about their products and was debating which one to try until I saw that they had released a new line of BB creams.

They actually came out with three new BB creams, but I chose this one because according to Mamonde it is best suited for dry skin. Mamonde actually released these several months ago, but I was unsure if I should try this one or one of the other types. The fact that it comes in one shade – light beige, made me unsure too.

But the fact that it should be pink toned made me curious. All of the previous bb creams I’ve tried that are meant to have a pink undertone have been various shades of orange and yellow on me at least. So, you could say I partly tried this to see what kind of undertone it had and to see if it was also yellow/orange on me too. I was hopeful that Mamonde would prove me wrong and that I might even find a decent bb cream out of this experiment.
