[REVIEW] Yadah All Day Cushion (Yadah x Sonyunara)


Hello~
Today I'll be reviewing this cushion from Yadah which is also a part of Yadah x Sonyunara collaboration. Thank you to BBcosmetic.com for sending me this cushion to try.

You can get this cushion HERE for $23.10 and free shipping (Amazon link)

I got the cushion in the colour of #21 which is definitely gonna be too light for my skin but let's read on what I have to say about this cushion.

The packaging catches my eye right away becoz it's pink <3

It is my first time having a matte packaging for cushion and it actually feels sleek!

The production date tells us that it's still new and this is why I love shopping on Korean sites :D










Too light for me but maybe I can used it for my under eyes to brighten it up.

Showing off that I had stubborn pimples on my temples 😭

VERDICT :

1) Color
As far as I knew, this only came in one color which is in the shade #21 and is a huge disadvantage for a darker skin like me who had yellow undertone. It looks like it had a little yellow undertone to it but blends white. 

2) Scent
I had four items sent to me by BBcosmetic and I could say that they all smells the same, kinda soapy like scent? However, it wasn't that obvious with this one.

3) Long lasting
The cushion says all day but does it? I don't really think so. Since the color is quite pale for me, I could tell that it would starts oxidising around ~4 hours  around moustache area and it would fade a little around my nose, that is without primers. 

4) Finish
Gives me a glowy complexion which I looove! It had moisturising properties which is very long lasting since it doesn't dry out after a long day.

5) Coverage
I would say that it has medium coverage and it is buildable. It covers up my dark spots and redness from my pimples quite well.

6) Wrinkles
I'm not sure where to put this but the foundation does settle in fine lines, eg:eyelid fold and under eye lines since it is not matte. Might need a little powders to avoid that.

7) Lightweight
Very lightweight on skin and it doesn't feel like I put a heavy makeup on

8) Transfers
It does transfer if you accidentally touches your face or scratch it.

9) Puff
The puff is soft and pick up product very well. I like the softness but it tends to build up and making the application looks like a mess. This kind of puff needs to be clean a lot.

Overall, I did like the cushion considering on how much I reached for it instead of my HERA UV Mist cushion for the last 7 days. It's great for daily wear and although I had to tweaked the colors with bronzers. 

Here's my video I posted on my instagram. I wanted to post more beauty videos but I'm too shy on camera, haha

[My Collection] Etude House Pink Skull Eyeshadow, Twin Shot LipsxTint & Sun Blind Cushion


I wanted to do this for some time now, like sharing my purchase and such and no matter how small the purchase is. It is because I may or may not review the products in the future but I want to let my readers know that I'm still here although I'm busy and not posting any reviews. So small posts like this can make this blog livelier and not dead ^^

Anyway, this is like a small purchase I asked my friend to buy while she was in Korea back in July (too bad I can't go with her because of my new semester of study just begun T_T) and I listed a few products for her to buy and she bought everything correctly with all the little details though she aren't good with makeup and such. Thanks to her, I can get the Pink Skull eyeshadow with discounted price,yeay~ ^^

There are a few like tools in my haul but idk why it's not in the picture (since I have this picture for some time now) but indeed it is a small haul since I've used up a lot of money for new semester T_T
FYI, I didn't buy the lip tint myself, it was the giveaway prize that @etude_official sent to me after winning their insta giveaway and honestly, I didn't expect to win at all since.. you know, there's a lot of followers who did the same. Originally, it is suppose to be one etude's bracelet and one lip tint but they changed the prize because of the problem with customs(?) but I was happy either way :D



The eyeshadows is in No.1 Lovely Skull and I know a lot preferred the No.2 version, Punky Skull. The No.2 shadows are almost similar to their Blooming Rose palette which I already have so I get this one instead. It's sooooo beautiful! No kidding


The pencil like-type is the new 3-1 eyebrow pencil which is the combination of brow highlight, brow pencil and mascara. The highlight didn't work for me though ;(

The white-blue cushion is the Sun Blind cushion, a cushion-type sunscreen and I LOVE IT! To bad that it was very little in volume and finish up so quick for me, almost dry by now ;(

Thank you for reading :)

[REVIEW] Sulwhasoo Perfecting Cushion Brightening with Global Interpark


Hey guys! It's been so long!

Today I'll be reviewing this cushion from Sulwhasoo which is the "Brightening" type. 
This item is sponsored by GLOBAL INTERPARK, a Korean-based online shop that offers variety of Korean products ranging from Kbeauty, Korean Food, Korean Fashion, Kpop & Kdrama merchandise and so much more!

Global Interpark is new to me as I never heard of it before but it excites me that they offers FREE SHIPPING!! How amazing is that? Without further ado, let me describe a little bit about them.

Interpark started its bussiness in 1996 and they are the first e-commerce company in Korea! Interpark is came from the word "Internet" and "theme park" which implies the joy of a theme part of the internet for the users. In 2014, they started to provide international service through the Global Interpark.


The homepage usually will appear in Chinese when you click the link from Google however there's a button on top that will let you change to language and currency. So far they offered English, Chinese, Korean and Japanese for the languages and USD, CNY, EUR and JPY for currency.



 The site offers Credit Card, Paypal, Alipay, Tenpay and more payment channels for the users to make their payment and they provide EMS and e-Post shipping services to over 220 countries! Starting from 2015, the users can also used the site on mobile :D

Just enter the code according to the above picture and it will automatically deduct your payment on the page. As the representative let me did all the purchase myself, I can tell you that their website is so easy to use and navigate around. It doesn't even took me 5 minutes to complete my order.

and by the way, FREE SHIPPING on another website is always refer to the non-track able Korean shipping service but the free shipping offered by Global Interpark is definitely a shipping service that you can track! They'll put a button on your order page for you to be able to track your parcel after it was sent. With that, happy shopping!

WEBSITE: WWW.GLOBALINTERPARK.COM
DISCOUNT CODE : EBL-MIZU-10

Enough with the introduction, so here's the review for this amazing cushion from Sulwhasoo~



There's definitely a 3D geometrical design on top but my camera not be able to capture the glittery, dreamy parts of it T_T


Sorry, it's kind of dirty...teheee..


This is in the shade of No.23

Brown puff!


Such an unflattering swatch..haha

 I received this cushion in a well packaged Global Interpark box and it's huge at that! Never thought that the inside there is a little cute box that could only fit the cushion in XD

The cushion supposedly have more shades range however on the site, they only offers up to No.23 which is a little bit light on my side. The No.23 is like it can be a little light or darker for me since my skin tone changes a lot. I just recently noticed that because the difference is not that obvious but I could tell since I looked into the mirror quite frequent..haha...But overall, it doesn't looks that obvious since most of the time it looks great on me.

I really don't want to but I still want to compare this cushion with my favourite Laneige Pore Control Cushion. The texture is definitely a bit different since this Sulwhasoo cushion is a bit brighter looking with a little glow to it whereas Laniege Pore Control lies more on the half-matte finish.

The oil control for this cushion? I guess its amazing. Just look at the bottom picture, I took that after 4 hours with sweat and all that and it still looks amazing. Whilst Laneige Pore Control cushion will developed a little product accumulation around my side of the nose after that amount of time, this cushion produces a very minimal of that which is less obvious. Btw, I didn't retouch since first application because I don't think it deserves retouching though I can be considered quite sweaty after 4 hours added with the El-Nino thing.

The coverage is medium. Applying more layers wouldn't help to add more coverage because this is considered quite light on the skin as I didn't feel like I was actually makeup on my face. However, it does cover my redness and minimal blemishes covering.

Overall, I really love this cushion and I could say that this rival my favourite Laniege cushion which places on top of my favourite cushion list!


I rate this:

Thank you for reading!

[REVIEW] Testerkorea Real Tester : NAKEUP FACE WATERKING COVER CUSHION SPF35/PA++


Hey there!

This is the third item that I'll be reviewing today as the testerkorea's first real tester. Testerkorea has been my favourite place to shop for Korean products since forever and they recently add ecargo which have made my whole waiting time reduced by 90%! They also offered tons of products from various brands so testerkorea is definitely an online shop you can trust. Plus, they also give various samples along with your order :D

 I've heard a lot about NAKEUP FACE and wanted to try this popular cushion which is said had a very good response in Korea since it was introduced :)

Before I go to to the review, these are a little details about this brand;

Brand : NAKEUP FACE
Net Weight : 15g
Production : Made in Korea
Price : 19,600 won
Where to buyHERE









It came in a mirror case which will reflects everything so taking this picture is quite challenging for me :X

The mirror is not blurred, I just haven't taken off the plastic.



So full of products!


Looks watery/glowy when swatch.



 My skin hasn't been in a good condition these last few days and it surprised me on how high the coverage is when applied on face despite the watery texture of the cream.

I'll be honest that the shade #23 is still a little light for my skin however I wanted to say that it was wearable. It doesn't make my face looks pale as ghost when I apply considerately. This cushion have those "a little goes a long way" thing.

In case you need an extra coverage, you can add more layers on top and it won't makes the finish looks cakey because of it's hydrating effect. One of the reason why the finish itself looks hydrating/glowy is probably because of the puff itself. It has more"air" to it than any other cushion puff I've used before and it is also the reason why a little of the cream goes a long way since it doesn't absorb the liquid cream into the puff or in another word, it doesn't waste the product.

It last for quite good amount of time but I'm not too sure for the "superstay 24 hours" since it does need to be reapply throughout the day (if you're wearing it for a long time).

Coverage is medium to high, depending on how much you use at a time. It does cover my redness and dark spots quite well (as you would see in the picture below). 

I didn't found any English translation for the full list of ingredients for this since all information are written in Korean but I would say that fragrance isn't strong in this one, in case you're curious about it.

Overall, it is a nice cushion if you wanted coverage and glowy finish but the downward is that the cushion is not made for someone who had a darker skin tone than shade #23


I rate this;

If you have any question, let me know :)
