REVIEW: THEFACESHOP Air Cotton Makeup Base SPF 30 PA++ in 01 Mint

Hello Cosmetics Lovers!!!

This time, I'm gonna review a makeup primer.  

It's another first for me. It's true I've reviewed other products that could act as a primer as a secondary use, like the cushions, powder, creams, but never a product whose sole use was a primer. It is a product which already made a guest appearance in one my previous posts (See HOLIDAYS SERIES: Hitting the Beach-What's in my makeup pouch?).

REVIEW: Baroness Aloe Vera Mask Sheet

Hi Everyone!

I'm catching up on all the reviews I've left out this month, so bear with my posts for the time being.

So this is the weirdest thing I've done when it comes to buying skincare products. Usually, I would buy them in flagship stores where I'm sure things are branded and safe and everything. This time I tried being a bit daring.

REVIEW: THEFACESHOP Pore Minimizer Controlling Cream

Hello Cosmetics lovers!

Here's another review of a product I've purchased in Mauritius. If you have been following me, you can already guess it's a THEFACESHOP product (yeah the only Korean cosmetics store around).


They have shipped lots of new products from South Korea to here, to my greatest delight. Among those was the Pore Minimizer Controlling Cream which was part of its new Pore Treatment Line. It was bought for Rs 475, roughly $14 (not that bad).

REVIEW: Innisfree Eco Brow Pencil in No.1 Grey

Hi Everyone!

What's up?

Time to get back to some serious reviewing. I've been slacking off a bit lately. Sorry. Returning from vacation, Resuming work and studies right away has been really tough (I'm such a lazy bone). Well, During that time, I've seized the opportunity to do some shopping for the sake of reviewing. Lavish spending on cosmetics does so much good to my mental health, but not to my wallet, unfortunately.


In my everlasting search of the perfect brow product, I've come across the Innisfree Eco Brow Pencil, which I purchased on www.innisfreeworld.com for $4 quite a while back. It is a really popular product in South Korea and is used by famous make-up artists.

HOLIDAYS SERIES: A Glimpse of Holidays in Mauritius

Hello!


How's everyone? Wherever you are in the world, I hope you are enjoying holidays. Taking some days off once in a while is really important, which I did after like two years (that's why I was literally on offline mode). Last time I went on a trip overseas and this time, it's on my own motherland that I went on vacation for a few days and God, it was so much fun :)
 
Yep, That's where I disappeared to.hihi

From my previous post, you might have wondered where I was going with so much gear with me. Well, drum roll.....I went on a hotel stay in the Northern coast of Mauritius, precisely at LUX* Grand Gaube, with my family. In this post, I'm not gonna talk about cosmetics but rather boast about the beauty of my island (Maybe your perception of Mauritius might change or you might wanna drop by one day with your loved ones).

HOLIDAYS SERIES: Hitting the Beach-What's in my makeup pouch?

Hi Everyone!


I know that many of you are enjoying your Summer Holidays out there. Well here in Mauritius, a tropical island, it's Winter time and it's been sooooo cold (not freezing). To tourists who converge here, it still feels like summertime to them. The average temperature here is around 20 degrees Celsius, but for someone who spent most of life in a hot environment, that is totally winter for me.

Anyways, I'm going to start a new series which pertains to HOLIDAYS. Writing reviews can become boring in the long run. So, I wanna be innovative and try something new, which will allow me to show you a glimpse of my Paradise Island, along the way. It's not really Holiday time here. Our big holidays' season is usually in December, when it's Summer.  Luckily, I've got family spending holidays in Mauritius and it will be a great opportunity to skip work, have a few days' off and enjoy quality time with them. Through this series, I wanna show how life is in Mauritius and how to be beach beauty. In this first part, I'm gonna show you what I'm packing in my makeup pouch as I get ready to head to my new secret destination (which will be revealed in my next segment). This will, in a way, ensure my checklist is alright, lol.

REVIEW: THEFACESHOP Seaweeds Moisturizing Pack

Hi Everybody!

Long time no see! It's been quite a while, right? I've been quite busy lately. But this didn't refrain me from trying out new products for you out there.


Sleeping packs have become quite a trend in South Korea and it is an essential step in the skincare routine of so many people there. Sleeping packs or masks are usually in the form of creams or gels that you apply on your face just before going to bed, and that you wash off as soon as you wake up, feeling refreshed for the day. I had quite a hard time laying my hands on one, 'cause it's practically unknown here. But since THEFACESHOP Mauritius opened, I can no longer say Korean cosmetics are not within my reach.

REVIEW: Pastel Profashion Rouge Palette No.3 Summer Fever

Hi Beauty Passionates!

This time, I'm going to review a Turkish brand that is an absolute craze here in Mauritius, Pastel Cosmetics. Yeah, it might appear surprising for a korean cosmetics lover to use a Turkish brand, but I'm all about testing whatever comes my way. Here in my country, there are lots of Asians with different complexions, so here, the majority prefers very pigmented products, unlike in Korea.
