[REVIEW] Cosrx Light Fit Real Water Toner to Cream

December 8, 2018 by Margo L

Cosrx Light Fit Real Water Toner to Cream was purchased by Cosmeperks.

Lately Cosrx seems to be on fire and releasing a lot of new products! Which honestly is quite exciting, because well I’ve always been a fan of their products. So, when Nigama asked me if I wanted to try this new product of theirs, I was instantly curious. Why was I instantly curious, you might wonder, well because of the name! Is it a toner or a cream? A mix of the two? Something like an emulsion? Well, these kinds of questions were going through my head, and honestly, I do like to try new products, especially those that I am curious about.

First of all, I wanted to find out what kind of product it was. The name is confusing to me, and well I wasn’t sure if I was getting a toner, emulsion or a cream. Apparently, this can be used as either a toner or a cream, depending on your skin type. To me that sounds bizarre, I mean how can a product really be either a cream or a toner? But I guess what Cosrx means is that if you have dry or dehydrated skin, you can use this product as a toner. But those with combination or oily skin can use it as a cream. Honestly though, I still must admit I am sceptical about how a product can be either a toner or a cream.

[REVIEW] Innisfree Jeju Lava Seawater Skin

December 3, 2018 by Alisa N

Innisfree Jeju Lava Seawater Skin Review:

As far as I know, the Jeju Lava Seawater line makes up a portion of Innisfree’s skincare range targeted towards anti-aging and intensive moisture. Clearly, being in my early twenties and having more of a combination-to-oily skin type, I’m not necessarily their target market.

However, when we were having a meet up and my friend was gushing about the Jeju Lava Seawater Deep Essence, I found myself really intrigued. And so, with having some generous friends within the skincare community, at one point, I ended up with a trial set of the Jeju Lava Seawater line. The rest, I guess you could say, is history… or is it?

[REVIEW] The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5

The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5 Review:

Who has never heard The Ordinary brand before? Well, I’m sure everybody ever heard at least once. The Ordinary is such a hype; there’re many reasons for it, though. Maybe because of its economical price, or its specific claim for only particular problem of your skin, or because of its after-usage effect. That’s why I decided to give it a try.

[REVIEW] Missha Glow Skin Balm

November 10, 2018 by Debby P

Missha Glow Skin Balm was purchased by Cosmeperks.

Not too long ago, Missha has launched a new collection called ‘Glow Skin’ and the collection consists of a foundation, a skin balm, a lip & cheek tint, and a tension pact. If I’m not mistaken, the collection’s purpose is for dry skin because fall and winter is coming and that’s when our skin become drier and drier (but sadly I live in a tropical country so we have no season here).

I really want to try the foundation but a lot of reviews were saying that it was too oily if you have oily skin so I didn’t get it and purchased the lip & cheek tint instead. But suddenly Nigama offered me to try the Glow Skin Balm and I’m so thankful! Since its main purpose is for dry skin, I can’t wait to see what it will looks like on my oily skin.

I’m not sure either if it’s a skin primer or a moisturizer, but when I searched about it online, most of the online shops described it as a skin primer. Missha made it only in one type (where other brands usually make it in 3 variants according to skin’s problem) and I think this primer is meant only for making your skin look luminous and feel hydrated.

[REVIEW] Femmue Dream Glow Mask Plump and Firm

Femmue Dream Glow Mask Plump and Firm Review:

Femmue (a super dreamy flower based brand that’s cruelty free, speaks English, and are super nice) has recently released not one but TWO new masks. This one, Plump and Firm, to promote elasticity, and one called Revitalize and Radiance, to promote that natural glow.

I love Femmue and these masks are… beautiful. I mean, hologram right? I have no idea what to expect, but I am very curious. Only problem? I got it first, it will start selling in December only.

[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+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+SWATCHES] Innisfree My Foundation Glow 3.1 C13

October 16, 2018 by Debby P

Innisfree My Foundation Glow 3.1 C13 Review:

My Foundation is a latest foundation from Innisfree. With such a simple name, I think it makes me more curious and want to try especially because of the unique shade numeration. If you notice, each foundation has different numbers (e.g : 3.1, 2.5, 1.3, etc) and from what I read from Innisfree website, it is a custom foundation so a lot of skin types can try this foundation.

With this shades range, personally I think this is a huge innovation especially from a Korean brand (which is famous for their limited shade range). I’m happy to see this foundation on my local Innisfree store so I got to swatch the shade first before purchasing it.

From what the personal assistant told me, the first number shows the foundation finish. 1 means Matte, 2 means Semi-matte, and 3 means Glow. The second number shows the coverage level, 1 being the lightest and 5 being the fullest.

[REVIEW] Too Faced Hangover Replenishing Face Primer

October 14, 2018 by Margaret H

Too Faced Hangover Replenishing Face Primer Review:

In truth, I bought this product due to its hype online from well-known Youtubers to blog reviews. It seemed to be featured everywhere, and at the time, I didn’t exactly have a holy grail for my primer.

So, when I was in London, I made the decision to purchase the Too Faced Hangover Primer, a primer designed to make you look like you’ve been well-hydrated and have gotten sufficient sleep — two things that I’m always lacking!
