REVIEW: THE FACESHOP Real Nature Mask V.2

Hi Everyone!

Sheet mask series time!!!!

The Faceshop has come up with a series of Real Nature Masks. This line is actually quite interesting as it consists of rarer ingredient. Besides Green Tea and Red Ginseng, which are usually found in many brands and in the other sheet mask line of The Faceshop, we also get to try Longan, Lily, White Tea, Goji Berry, Lingzhi, Peony, Calendula, Lotus, which are ingredients I am not familiar with in terms of skincare. It took me a while to actually collect all the masks and bring them into a family picture but now, let's get into serious business by reviewing one by one.

Note: I've used the masks over a certain period of time, not all at once. And my skin was subject to different varying conditions (tiredness, lack of vitamins and minerals, dry and humid weather, sickness, hormonal imbalances) that affected my skin over that period. So, I might have used a specific sheet masks to suit the condition of my skin at that point in time, or not.

REVIEW: THEFACESHOP CC Intense Cover Cushion- V203 Natural Beige

Hi Everyone!

Guess what... Guess what????? Here's another cushion to review.


Yessss. I've decided to pile up on cushions! No, seriously, there was a promotion going on at THEFACESHOP retail store here and I thought I should get myself one of those cushions to try out. 

My favourite pick was the THEFACESHOP CC Intense Cover Cushion. I know that in Korea the hype is currently on the collabs with Kakaotalk or Disney, where you get the same product but in a different packaging based on those collabs. But alas, here they did not bring those limited edition ones :(  You know how  crazy I am when it comes to cute and colorful packaging.

REVIEW: Etude House Precious Mineral Any Cushion Pearl Aura SPF50+/PA+++The Box Natural Beige

Hi Everyone!

I am happy to bring to you a review on a cushion foundation I've had for a while. It's the Etude House Precious Mineral Any Cushion Pearl Aura. It's been around for about a year, I guess and obviously, I waited till its price dropped to $10.80. Yes, it was that cheap. But on its launch, I think it was at the usual cushion price for Etude House which is $21.60. Good deal.

REVIEW: Pastel Magic touch: Coverstick & Highlighter

Hi Everybody!!!
These days I've got lots of breakouts from (stress and junk food, obviously) and resulting acne scars that I need to cover up, obviously. I had to invest in a good concealer and in doing so, I also got myself an integrated highlighter. Can it get better than that?

REVIEW: Etude House Blend For Eyes in #3 Pink Up

Hi Beauty Passionates!

How are you all doing?

This time I'm reviewing the Etude House Blend For Eyes in #3 Pink Up. It's a not so quite new eyeshadow quad palette that Etude House came up with. And since that brand is quite known for its usually very popular mono-shadows, I wanted to give that one a try.

REVIEW: Innisfree Green Tea Cleansing Foam

Hello Everyone!!!

I am trying so hard to come up with new reviews and new ideas, but real life schedules keep butting in. Anyways, if you follow me, you might notice I love cleansers. I think I've got quite a collection by now. So, this makes me wonder if I should focus more on makeup from now on, 'cause it's gonna get boring, right?

But meanwhile, bear with me while I am secretly growing my makeup collection in my den, and proceed with reading my review on the Innisfree Green Tea Cleansing Foam. Oh yeah you know how much I love Innisfree. Let's see what this green baby is about.

REVIEW: Etude House Big Cover Cushion Concealer in Vanilla

Hello Everybody!
Hope you are all doing well.
I have tons of hauls to do about products I've purchased over the past few months and I'm doing my best not to be a lazy bum.
So, this time, it's a review of another product from Etude House: It's the Big Cover Cushion Concealer. It's the first time I'm reviewing a concealer (not the first time I've bought one though), and the first time I'm using a cushion concealer.

Beauty Face-off: Innisfree Jeju Volcanic nose pack V/S THEFACESHOP Blackhead Out Charcoal nose strip

Hi Beauties!

Today I'm coming up with a new series on my blog: Beauty Face-off, where I'll compare the performance of almost similar products from two different brands. To kick it off, I'll be starting with a rather gross post, yeah absolutely gross!!!

My blogpost will be about nose strips, and for those who know how they work, you know how gross they are. So, I'll be comparing and contrasting the Innisfree Jeju Volcanic nose pack and THEFACESHOP Blackhead Out Charcoal nose strip.

REVIEW: Etude House [Let's Pink] Precious BB Cream Cover & Bright Fit in W13 Natural Beige

Hi Beauty Lovers!!!

Today, I'm gonna review yet another product from Etude House. Yeah, you know how much I love Etude House. It's affordable, girly and exude cuteness overload. But this time, we're having a go at the  Etude House [Let's Pink] Precious BB Cream Cover & Bright Fit in W13 Natural Beige. I've tried out some BB cream samples before, but this time I got myself a full-size tube. Yayyyy!!!

REVIEW: Etude House Color My Brows in #01 Rich Brown

Hello Beauties!!!

If you follow me, you might know how much I love to experiment with brow products since I was not naturally gifted with thick and full eyebrows. As at date, I am still enjoying my Innisfree Eco Brow pencil in No. 1 Grey on an almost daily basis since August 2015. I love it so much I just cannot leave the house without it. But okay, we are not just going to flaunt the merits of that pencil since I've already done so in a previous post. Please check it out.

This time, I experimented a whole new kind of product for me (yeah me who live on a lost island), it's the Etude House Color My Brows in #01 Rich Brown. I've never used a brow mascara before and seeing how much Korean makeup artists use those, I badly wanted to try these out and know if they are worth the hype.

REVIEW: THEFACESHOP Mild Papaya Peeling Exfoliant

Hello Everyone!


These days I admit, I've got that thing for peeling stuffs. I love peeling things off my skin. Like when I used to get sunburns and a few days later, my skin would naturally start to peel off like a snake. ewww. Yeah I loved doing that. But in the long run, I learned that it was bad to actually inflict such pain to one's skin. However, in the meantime, I also got to find out that there were products that are actually used as peeling. So, you actually end up peeling something other than your skin, while cleaning it. I got to experience the skin shedding thing (check out my review for THEFACESHOP Black Yeast Peel-off Pack), but the product I'm gonna review this time is actually a different kind of peeling. It's totally on another level.

It's THEFACESHOP Mild Papaya Peeling Exfoliant!

REVIEW: Johnson's® Face Care: Oil Control Face Wash

Hello Everybody!


I've been trying out a lot of cleansers lately. I have combination skin and oily T-zone. So, I need to wash my face at least twice a day even when I'm not wearing makeup. It's the routine for me to maintain my skin clean and healthy. This time I will again review a product which comes from the same line as another previous post of mine. It's the Johnson's® Face Care: Oil Control Face Wash. If you are a regular reader of my blog, you should be familiar with that face wash. It's indeed from the same line as the Johnson's® Even Complexion Facial Wash.

So, let's go and see what this baby has in store for us.

REVIEW: Revlon ColorStay 12 Hour Eye Shadow in 01 Copper Spice

Hi Everyone!

When I look back on my older posts, I realised I never reviewed any eyeshadows (MY BADDDDD!!!). I'm gonna rectify that with this post. Despite the fact I've never posted about them, I actually love eyeshadows, liners, well, eye makeup in general. Sadly enough, I barely think about reviewing them. They have become such a staple in my daily life that I forget to talk about them. I have quite a few products in stock but I will review them as soon as I have some time.lol.

REVIEW: Etude House Precious Mineral BB Cream (SAMPLE)

Hi Everyone!

This time I'm gonna review a sample from Etude House. Yup. I don't know if it really counts as a review. But I wanted to share my thoughts on that one. Just count it as a first impression review as I might or might not purchase the whole-size product and this might actually show the reason why. Also, it is not mentioned which shade was offered to me, but based on the results, I assume they sent me the lightest shades for all 3 types of the BB creams.


So, this review is about the  Etude House Precious Mineral BB Cream and it came in that format. It actually consists of 3 BB cream samples:

1. Etude House Precious Mineral BB Cream-Blooming Fit
2. Etude House Precious Mineral BB Cream-Cotton Fit
3. Etude House Precious Mineral BB Cream-Perfect Fit

Let's go and see if which one of these 3 is the best "fit" for me :D

REVIEW: Innisfree Eco Safety Perfect Sunblock SPF 50+ PA+++

Happy Lunar New Year Again Everybody!!!

In Mauritius, we celebrate Chinese New Year too 'cause yeah, there is a Sino-Mauritian diaspora which  consists mainly of descendants of Chinese immigrants and I'm proud to be part of them. Here, we light firecrackers, have lion dances, make yummy chinese delicacies to be shared with our kith and kin. But it is customary for Mauritian Chinese to take more days off and stay at hotels or go to the beach to celebrate the new year. Perks of living on a tropical island.

This time I have the pleasure to come up with my second collaboration with Jolse. Yessss, I was again chosen as a reviewer (among many other winners, of course) for one of the products they currently sell on their online store. It's the Benton Honest TT Mist. Again, like the, KOELF Gold and Royal Jelly Hydro Gel Eye Patch, I was not aware of this brand before Jolse posted it on its Facebook Page. I feel very honored to be able to try a new brand for you guys :D
