[ REVIEW ] Utena Matomage Hair Styling Stick (Regular Hold) (Pink)


Hi lovelies~

Today's review is about Utena Matomage Hair Styling Stick. I got the pink version which is the regular hold. They also have one for stronger hold which is the green one. 





Pros: 
- Does what it is suppose to do 
- Super easy to use
Super cute princessie (if thats a word) packaging ~I am a total sucker for packaging 
   (。・//ε//・。)~

Cons: 
- You have to use it really gently in oder to avoid looking..... well.... greasy? 
- Lastly the packaging suckssssss!!! Ok maybe I'm wrong. Actually its really cute and pretty  however if you are like me who likes to keep the products I use clean then you might find yourself cleaning/wiping off the stick every time you use it.



Will I buy it again? Tbh I actually like this product because it does what its suppose to and won't look greasy if you do it really gently. However I wasn't gonna buy it the 2nd time because it was a hassle cleaning the dust on this product but my mom really likes it so I might get one for her. I bought it. For two reasons: 1) because my mom likes it and 2) because the one I had finished and I realised how easy it was to tame all those flyaway I get after straightening my hair. I never liked using hairspray so this was perfect because its so light and natural.

Where to buy? I bought mine for £5.90 in yesstyle but like most beauty products you can buy this at ebay and amazon aswell. 
P.S. I am not affiliated with yesstyle. I just like to buy most of my stuff from them because its more convenient for me because their minimum amount for free shipping is only £20 and I like free shipping hehe. I do want to try ordering from other websites like sasa, pretty and cute etc but I don't know much about their shipping rate so kinda scared that it's going to be too expensive. If you know please comment down below and let me know. :) 

Many thankx 
More review coming up so till then bieeeeeeee ˚‧*♡ॢ˃̶̤̀◡˂̶̤́♡ॢ*‧˚

[ REVIEW ] - VERITE UV Multi Cushion #23

Hello my lovelies!!!  (๑>ᴗ<๑)

I have decided to do a quick review on the Verite UV Multi Cushion which I have tried out quite a few times before. I was determined to get my hands on this product when one of my friend recommended it to me and I have seen many reviews on this product about its good high coverage. I have few acne scars due to stress from my upcoming university interviews and coursework, so I just wanted to see how well it would cover my acne scars.  
  I brought the one with a refill, so with refill 30g in total amount of product




The packaging of this cushion is elegant and travel friendly, so I take this mostly everywhere with me to touch up my make-up. Mirror and the sponge is included as well which makes it much more convenient. I got the shade 23 which is perfect shade for me, it gives my skin a healthy glow to it and evens out my complexion. This gives you a medium to buildable coverage but it does not give you that high full coverage. Though for me this cushion didn't completely cover my stubborn acne scars so I still had to put on concealer to cover it. 

 The sponge is quite dirty, as I have used it many times and I need to clean it soon or I will just replace it. 


 With one layer 

  With two layer

 When using this product I recommend to use it with a good moisturiser because if you have dry skin or dry spots than it will make it more noticeable. I love the finish of this product because it gives a very bright dewy finish. This cushion is more of a foundation than the normal BB Cream as it does not leave you with the grey cast otherwise there would be a huge difference between the neck and face. hehehehe ^.^
To get a decent amount of coverage you have to apply it in thin layers and all you have to do is dab the product with the sponge onto your face. This gives you a high protection from the sun, it has SPF  50+/ PA+++.  I am very excited to use this for summer cause of its high sun protection. However this lasts me about 4 to 5 hours.
What I love about using this product is that the application is fast so it take me about 1-2 minutes to apply the product. 
I would definitely repurchase the refill for this again because the finish is just absolutely amazing. I really want to try out the Hera cushion and Innisfree cushion aswell.  

Take care guys xox 🙆 ☆*:.。. o(≧▽≦)o .。.:*☆

[ REVIEW ] Elishacoy 3D Spin Cleaner review

Heyyyy Guyss~~ (=^-ω-^=) 


Today I will be reviewing a product that I have been using for a couple of months which I absolutely love, it is the Elishacoy 3D Spin Cleaner





Small leaflet


Since I saw all these raves about this product from many beauty gurus, I decided to get my hands on this product and try it out for myself. I brought this product from my favourite beauty website "WishTrend", their fast shipping and customer service is awesome. I brought the Smart Cleansing Kit which came in a set that included the Vita Capsule Cleanser, Machine, Facial brush and Blackhead brush. This costs me $48 all together which is an amazing deal.

It came with 2 AA batteries and a waterproof silicon pad to prevent skidding.  

A small ventilation for the brush to breathe 


The Elishacoy 3D Spin Cleanser is advised to be used for 1-2 a week because using it everyday can pretty much cause skin peel. Also don't use the brush on a single area for a long time and don't press too hard on the skin because it can make the skin sensitive or red. 

Face brush 

Blackhead brush

After using this product it makes my skin squeaky clean, so it is important to put on some moisturiser afterwards. The brush has round tip so it is able to reach slightly beyond the surface of the skin which makes it much more effective cleansing and the brushes are anti-bacterial approved. Elishacoy 3D Spin Cleanser comes with 2 brushes: one for the face and other one is blackhead brush which is a bit smaller than the face brush,  it's perfect for the nose, chin and any areas that the face brush doesn't really reach the skin properly. They have got a new massaging tool now called "heart ball" for all skin type and facial massage. I don't have that with me at the moment but hopefully I will get it soon. *crosskeys* (◕‿◕✿)
 Thank you very much for reading~~~
Take care xoxo

[ REVIEW ] Etude House Sunprise Natural Corrector SPF 50+ PA+++


I've decided to make the review short and simple because I think my previous reviews were kind of messy? lol Idk... so ummm here is the review~ :D

Today's review is about Etude House Sunprise Natural Corrector SPF 50+ PA+++







It says on the website that the UV defence moisturiser whitens skin with Niacinamide and improves wrinkles with Adeonsine.

So the Pros are:

- Its SPF 50+ and PA+++ so it protects my skin from harmful UV rays
- It evens out my skintone 
- It whitens my skin tone( Temporarily  ㅠ ㅠ ) while looking really natural
- On that note it's similar to LadyKin Hydro White Illumination Cream but has a pink tone
- Doesn't feel greasy like other sun creams do
- Has a nice smell which only last few seconds
- It can be used as a primer  ( update: do not use it as a primer. You can try experimenting it with your foundation but it just didn't go well as a primer for me)
- I prefer to use this as a quick alternative for makeup when I don't have much time.
- The tube is tiny(50ml) but a little goes a long way and it is also easier to carry around so its    alright I guess

Cons:

- It kind of slides off my face through out the day (but it only usually happens in summer as I have   oily/combination skin)
- Therefore it might not be a good choice for people with oily skin ><''
- It sets on the creases on my eyelid which is just horrible!!! 
- Sometimes it gets on the eyebrow if not blended properly

Where to buy?- I bought mine for £9.60 in yesstyle  but you can get it in other shops like sasa, ebay, amazon etc.

Will I buy it again?- Actually this is my second tube so YESSS! The first one I bought came in a cute pink Minnie Mouse packaging (๑>ᴗ<๑)(shown below) but sadly they don't print that design anymore. :(

[ REVIEW ] My Beauty Diary Black Pearl mask

Hi Guys~~~~~ How's everyone doing? I don't know why but I am feeling quite happy right now.(★^O^★)
Maybe its because as I'm writing this I'm listening to love lane and Mr.애매모호 (Mr.Ambiguous) by MAMAMOO ( their voice is sooo good)  or maybe I'm just a little crazy haha XD
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Its been a while since we've done a review so on to the review~~(◕‿◕✿)
A little bit about My Beauty Diary:
''My Beauty Diary specializes in facial masks suitable for various seasons and skin types. My Beauty Diary offers two different mask collections both aimed at making skin look younger and more radiant. The Luxury Line combines Japanese ingredients, techniques and the latest nano biotechnology for a 100% fragrance-free and alcohol-free essence to deliver holistic beauty, while the Natural Key Line uses natural, nourishing extracts that help protect and nourish skin under daily stress.- Information from Yesstyle''
After browsing through their website I decided to get the black pearlmask(english version) .

☆*・゜゚・*\(^O^)/*・゜゚・*☆ 

Front

Back
What does this mask do?

The Black Pearl Mask claims to improve the skin's resilience and restores its youthfil luster. It also says it on the website that it can be used for optimal whitening, brightening and moisturising.

My overall review:

Whitening/brightening effect: It does makes my skin a little bit brighter but it is only temporary and will go back to normal(πーπ ). I usually wear it before going to bed to let my face absorb the serum.

Moisturising: It was OK, not too dry not to moisturising however I did put on a little bit of moisturiser after I use this mask as my skin feels a bit dry if I dont. 

Comfort: The mask is pretty easy to use and is pretty transparent and light. Therefore most of the time I just it on and watch T.V, use instagram etc.

  Price: I bought this mask for £10 in yesstyle.co.uk but now it should be around £9.60 but make sure to double check before buying. You can also but it in sasa.com for around  £8.27  but I have never shopped from them before so I'm not sure about the shipping rates.

Will I buy it again?- Yes, but I would like to try out other mask first.

[ HAUL ] WishTrendl!!!


Heeyyy lovelies~~ Today I will be talking about my WishTrend haul that I just received yesterday. I did try out the products except from the samples that I got because I was too excited.. I mean who wouldn't be right? ~~ O(≧▽≦)O




~~This is the box that the products came in~~ ☆*・゜゚・*\(^O^)/*・゜゚・*☆ ~~

First off all I would like to say that I have never purchased any products from them before up until now and I must say that I was very impressed with their shipping. I placed my order on August 8 and I received it by August 18. 


The two products were bubble wrapped together but I took one of the products out as I was too keen to try it out. keekeke!!! This shows that they are taking extra measure in order to protect our product which is always a plus point. (=^-ω-^=)

Items I purchased are:

KLAIRS Rich Moist Soothing Mask 10 sheets + Free 3 sheets  for $11.94
CHICA Y CHICO Free shipping + Beta-Salic 2.0 (Miracle Cream) for $23.90

The sample I received are on the bottom of the image which are Red serum, Argan treatment oil and fre-C sun protector. 

Overall Experience 

In the future I would definitely purchase from WishTrend again because of their fast shipping, good quality products, safe payment system, really good customer service, range of products to try out and affordable price. WishTrend often have promotions going on which you can find out from their youtube channel or their website itself.

[ REVIEW ] LadyKin Hydro White Illumination Cream ~~


Hi Guysss~~ (=^-ω-^=) Hows life? Well our life been really busy for the past few weeks because of our coursework and uni stuff *sigh*()´д`()Aniways we just have few more weeks till our last day in college! *eppp* just thinking about the future scares me! (⊙﹏⊙✿)  

So without further ado here's  my review of Ladykin's Hydro White Illumination cream. 

Something about Ladykin and what it claims:
''Launched in 2012, Korean beauty brand LadyKin helps every woman put her best face forward. The brand uses affordable, high-quality and eco-friendly ingredients that are free from parabens and synthetic colors. UV protectants and fruit oils help reverse aging and keep skin silky, moisturized and bright. LadyKin products create long-lasting effects, and are available in a vast array of colors that are easy to apply even for beginners. From makeup to skin toners to hydro creams, LadyKin's line captures the essence of the modern woman and her beauty needs.'' -- information from yesstyle
  • Free from Paraben, Synthetic colours and talc.
  • Maintains moist skin tone.
  • Whitening skin care.
Delivery and Price: I bought this cream in Yesstyle for £10 and got a free delivery because my total amount was over £20. The service was great as I didn't have any problems and the delivery time was as stated. 


It even came with its own little spatula *so cute* ✖‿✖ 

LadyKin Hydrowhite Illumination Cream can be used as a primer but not as a moisturiser on its own because if you have drier skin than it can settle into your dry areas making it more visible. It does make my skin feel very soft and it act well to prime skin for make-up.  This cream does have a mild smell to it but it goes away after few minutes. For a little container, a little goes a long way so the product itself will last a long way.

Before and After
 Pros:
  • Makes my skin so soft~ (๑>ᴗ<๑)
  • It comes with a spatula which makes sure that you don't have to use finger to apply the product. 
  • Give glowing final look.
  • It can be used on the body parts.
  • Whitens or brightens the skin 
Cons:
  • The whitening effect is only temporary.
  • The cream settles into  dry areas. 
  • It does not cover acne scars or pore 
  • No SPF
