PR: Etude House Surprise Essence Concealer

~Ola(≧∇≦)/

My special day has not ended yet and I have a lot of things to share..... ♪~♪ d(⌒o⌒)b♪~♪

I made a review on Etude House Surprise Essence Concealer. Honestly, I just immediately picked this product without even looking at its shade (-ε-). I just wanted to replace my currently concealer sooo badly that I'd didn't took any time to check if this product has a good 
review ( _ _ )

This 7 gram liquid concealer is available on 2 shades: 
  • Surprise Essence Concealer #1
  • Surprise Essence Concealer #2 
Etude House Suprise Essence Concealer, liquid concealer
I was able to pick the lightest shade (#1). It offers medium coverage on facial flaws.

As you can see it has a tip applicator for easier use.

A small amount can cover enough spot that you'd like to correct on your face as its formula is concentrated. I have been using this product for more than 2 months.

Urgh! (_ _,)/~~ I'm trying to conceal my green vein on my hand and it looks more decent now.

The concealer does not settle on the lines or crows feet of the eyes however, I noticed that somehow the concealer falls off. Maybe its just me...or I didn't put enough concealer or I didn't apply it correctly( _ _ ; )
And to sum it all up.....

What I like about it..
  • Affordable ~ 298
  • Easy to carry around 
  • Blends well on the skin  
What I don't like about it..
  • Provides medium coverage
  • Only 2 shades available 
  • Staying power is fair

~Ola(≧∇≦)/
I'm back with my review on Etude House' All Day Strong BB cream. Blemish Balm (BB) cream are usually used as make-up base just like foundation. It also helps even out skin tone and hide skin imperfections.  BB creams are becoming popular nowadays. After I emptied my first BB cream I immediately bought EH's product (o*´∇`)o.  

This 60 gram blemish balm cream is available in:
  • Sheer Silky Skin #1
  • Sheer Glowing Skin #2
  • Sheer Flawless Skin #3
It has the following features: 
  • SPF30 / PA++ UV protection
  • Anti-Wrinkle & Whitening Properties
  • Anti-Darkening Properties

I chose Precious Mineral BB Cream Sheer Glowing Skin because it blends on my skin tone.

The bottle's pump is kinda' crazy even though you use it with all caution..it still squirts the cream and it goes all over the place ( *´ノェ`) ~ I was so excited on doing the swatches...you can't imagine what mess I made (゜∇ ゜)

What I like about it..
  • Affordable ~ 728 only 
  • It has SPF30 / PA++ UV protection
  • Anti-wrinkle and whitening properties 
  • Anti-darkening properties  
  • Light to medium coverage on the skin

PR: Human Nature Tinted Lip Balm

~Ola(≧∇≦)/
 
Happy crazy rainy afternoon to all! I feel really sleepy (´~`). It's a good thing that I can still sit in front of my laptop to write (⌒□⌒). I want to share another Human Nature product which is the tinted lip balm that is 100% natural. 

Available in 3 shades: 
  • Pink Orchid (pink)
  • Island Kiss (coral)
  • Flame Tree (red)
What I have is the Island Kiss shade. This 4 gram lip balm cost 90 available on all Beauty Bar and Human Nature store outlet. 
 
Human Nature Tinted Lip Balm, tinted lip balm
 
It contains Ricinus communis (castor) seed oil, beeswax, Theobroma cacao (cocoa) seed butter, caprylic/capric triglyceride (coconut oil derived), Helianthus annuus (sunflower) seed oil, Mentha piperita (peppermint) essential oil, Calendula officinalis (calendula) extract, Rosmarinus officinalis (rosemary) extract, tocopherol, (+/-): zinc oxide (CI 77497), iron oxide (CI 77491), manganese violet (CI 77742), mica (CI 77019), titanium dioxide (CI 77891)...wait these last ingredients are kinda scientific now σ(∧_∧;)

I like the peppermint scent  whenever I use this balm and it actually moisturizes my lips. FYI, some lip balms makes my lips chappy....weird eh?! \(〇_o)/ I've also noticed that instead of a coral shade on my lips it's kinda brownish.....reddish..is that coral? Haha!( _ _ )..........o 

You may refer to the picture below of my bare lips. 

Bare lips, lips

And the swatch of the tinted lip balm

Since this is only a tinted lip balm I really did not expect long wear effect. The only thing that I've noticed is my lips feels a "bit" dry after quite sometime. But still, this is a must buy product as it is organic and no synthetic colorant was used. It also has cocoa butter, beeswax and all-natural plant oils that helps lips to be moisturized. And to sum it all up~
 
What I like about it..
  • Natural ingredients 
  • Reasonable price 
  • Peppermint smell 
  • Loved its brownish to reddish tint 
 What I don't like about it..
  • "My" lips felt dried somehow

PR: Human Nature Hydrating Face Toner

~Ola(≧∇≦)/
 
I've been very busy these past weeks and I have a long list of overdue post ―(T_T)→ ~ I have many things to share and my blog is becoming a beauty blog somehow (*^^*). I didn't realize that being "girly" is fun...if I've known it earlier I won't be so noob (=´▽`). Well enough of the dramas **cough** **cough** 
 
I have been wanting to try other product that can cleanse and moisturize my skin. After quite sometime of browsing I bumped into the Human Nature products and read off that they are using organic ingredients..sounds very healthy (○⌒∇⌒○). I bought this 100 ml. bottle at Beauty Bar Robinsons Galleria at 110
 
  
It contains water, glycerine (vegetable derived), lactic acid (sugar derived), betaine (sugar beet derived), Aloe barbadensis (aloe vera) leaf juice, Moringa pterygosperma (malunggay) seed extract, Citrus sinensis (orange) oil, chitosan, Pelargonium graveolens (geranium) oil.

This is recommended for dry or mature skin, it also promotes Moringa and Aloe Vera as its key ingredients on cleansing and and eliminating toxins on the skin. It has a sweet smell and does not sting the skin unlike other toners that contains alcohol. It does not make the skin dry after application instead you'd feel so refreshed ☆^▽^☆

Unfortunately, I was having super PMS breakouts and stress is killing me so much (* ̄▽ ̄)o┳o┳━━
The toner was not enough to tame my oil glands that causes acne. Urghh! I find myself so weird XD
Overall, the product is still worth buying and to sum it all up~

What I like about it..
  • Organic ingredients 
  • Reasonable price 
  • Sweet smell 
  • Does not sting the skin 
  • Very mild 
 What I don't like about it..
  • It can't control acne problem
