[REVIEW] HiShop Welcome Pack [ April Edition ]

Hello ladies! Happy weekend to all of you!
Well, I don't really have plans for this weekend, so I probably will spend my time in front of computer. :D

Last two weeks ago when I just received words from HiShop.com.my that I was chosen as their beauty ambassador, this bright pink box arrived to my doorstep a few days later! How efficient! 
Too bad it wasn't me who received the box or else I'll grin to this for the whole day..lol XD

Anyway, I was really thankful to be chosen along with many others HiShop Beauty Ambassador you could found online! Since there are so many of us, you would probably see this pretty box laying around every month! hehe :D

So this is the first welcome pack I received. I was told that the products are special hand picked by HiShop for every bloggers and I think it is true because the main item of this box is the BB cream and BB cream is the top post in this blog ! haha

HiShop also offers a lot of Korean and Japanese beauty product like Candy Doll(My fav!), Baviphat, touch in SOL Tony Moly and many more!

Before I continue, let me introduce to you a little bit about HiShop.

  The first and main product I told you is this Beauty Balm from FARMASI Cosmetics. They're Turkish brand cosmetics and I actually heard about of them quite a few times before this. 

This BB cream have two shades which are 01 Light and 02 Medium to Dark. I'm glad that they choose the right shade for me!I usually go for the darkest shade for every BB cream I bought because I love to mix the colors with the light BB cream color I have to get the correct shade.

I won't write a full review here since I don't try this BB cream yet but surely a full review coming soon in this month!

Price : RM39.90 (The price is cheap!Not bad if you're a first time BB cream user)

 Oh hi Siwan from ZE:A! 
This is a mask sheet from "touch in SOL" brand which is sweet honey type.
Since my skin is acne-prone which is prone to redness on cheek, this is the right one for me!

The mask claims ;
Honey Mask replenishes and revitalizes you skin, restoring its natural suppleness and moisture levels while alleviating and soothing soreness, redness and cracking.

Price : RM5.90 (the price is not bad for a mask!)

I've tried Baviphat masks quite few times before this especially the oatmeal and black bean one!
I love the masks so much because it is really light and non-sticky on skin~ I can't wait to try this one!

Taken from HiShop ;
Acorn makes the skin more glowing and the inner pulp of chestnuts is effective in tightening pores. Highly concentrated essence mask contains various moisturizing factors such as betaine and shea butter to give you a smooth and moisturized skin.

Priced at RM5.90 each.

It's Nature & Co which is a brand under KOSE! omg *_*
Since I love the products I tried from KOSE last time, I'm expecting this will do well! Since it is nature, the ingredients are probably from nature itself !

[REVIEW] KOSE Sekkisei Lotion and KOSE Seikisho Mask White

So at the end of last year until a week ago, I was obsessed over whitening skincare. Though I rarely posted about skincare here because I think I'm not good enough in terms of skin care..haha
I stopped about few days ago because one of my blog reader told me that whitening skincare can exaggerate my acne-prone skin because whitening skincare contains the harsh ingredients..oh well, she's right. I was obsessed with whitening skinc are because I gave up of searching the right skin care for my acne-prone skin..so I'm looking for another alternatives that could work better..lol

Anyway, after reading reviews and suggestions, I found this whitening skincare under the KOSE brands which is said works really good on most of skin. Because this brand is more to high-end brand that could hit hundreds or 1k for the whole skincare, I decided to just try out the samples which I bought from eshoppingstrawberry. They carried a lot of high-end brand with them so you might want to check them out. In terms of price, I suggest you not to ask me since I don't know the store price compared to them since I never used any high-end brand before..hehe

I think KOSE had another collection of whitening skincare which I'm not sure what was the name of the collection so google if you want to know..lol

So here are the two picture of the full sized products of promo pictures I found for the samples that I tried because the samples packaging may not look the same as samples but there aren't much difference actually.

KOSE Sekkisei Lotion

KOSE Seikishio Mask White

the cute samples I bought..it cost me bucks though..

The mask white on my face since I don't take much picture..

The lotion samples lasts about 4 times for me and 3 times for the mask white.I'm not sure why it was called mask white because the color is dark blue.

The lotion has a very slight blue tint to the liquid and it smells like herbs. I used not too like strong smell of herbs but I guess I kinda like this smell..It feels very light on face and I think there is a bit of cooling sensation to it. I love this lotion because it makes my face less oily :)

For the mask white, I would say that it works really really well with whitening properties with just one used. Probably it is a peel off type that it removes my whiteheads and blackheads along with it and then it makes my face looks brighter. It is really thick and it is so hard spread but I guess that was a peel off mask should be like. The mask itself is hurt a little bit when I remove it probably it is because I left the mask for too long and that makes the mask is drier than it should be. One thing I wanna say that you shouldn't apply this mask around your eye area coz it's gonna be freaking hurt that I actually cried..lol

Overall, I really love both of the products that I've tried. For repurchasing, I mean the full size one..I might have to think of my money first..lol but if you do have the money, why not try them? It's worth it if you love whitening skincare.

I'm currently is starting my acne/oily skin skincare routine all over again and thanks to Yue Rain for the advice you shared with me. It is really helpful :D

Thank you for reading :)
