[REVIEW] Aritaum Honey Melting Tint

This review is sponsored by insta : @personal_shopper_4u in the color "Coral Candy" . I had the "Strawberry Chips" color with me for a long time so I thought, why not combine both review.

@personal_shopper_4u is a Malaysian online shop that sells a wide range of korean skincare and make up which is directly imported from Korea. They do have both ready stocks and pre-order items.

Do visit their insta shop or blog at koreanskincareandcosmetic.blogspot.com to see lists of products that you can order.

This tint is released last year I guess and it was quite a raved back then. Aritaum lippes are never disappointing in terms of colors since the had a huge range of colors every time they released a lip product and they smell sooo good! I had the Aritaum World Glam Coating Tint which I reviewed it last two years HERE and it smells like a cake!haha

It's a minimalist packaging and the cap represent the colors of the lip product.

Had to re-take this picture for so many times coz it won't stay still..haha XD

Swatches on my hand with flash on. It does represent the true color of the product.

Candy Coral is an orange-red in color when applied on my lips and it was more orange than coral whereas Strawberry Chips is a pink color, as you can see.

I could say that my first impression of this tint is that, this is not a tint. It is more like a lipstick balm (is that a term?). The texture isn't as "melting" as I'd imagined because I thought it will be glossy and moisturizing, kinda.

Another reason why I did say that is because when applying the lipstick on lip, it cause tugging especially on dry lips. I tried applying lip balm before applying this lipstick and it does make a huge different in terms of texture however the color would not be as pigmented as if you're applying on dry lip because the balm texture may interfere a bit with building the color. It's best if you just apply a little bit of lip balm, not too much before applying this lipstick.

One thing that I realize is when you have dry lip, as I'm building the color, it gradually became more moisturised and there is no more tugging. This happen maybe because the lipstick itself is actually quite moisturising but it was thicker than any normal lip balm. There's a candy like smell of the product but it'll disappear in seconds after it was applied onto the lips.

The coverage is quite good as it cover the true color of my lip. From the swatches, it looks like it will turn transparent but it builds up well on my lips. The color will easily disappear when eat or drink and it'll leave a trace of color when it is not properly cleaned.

In summary, it is moisturizing, highly pigmented and suits for any kind of skin color since the color is not too bright. I love this tint and if you would like to get it, make sure to check out @personal_shopper_4u on instagram. They have both ready stock and pre-order items :D

Thank you for reading :)

[REVIEW] HiShop - Crazy Rumors & Yes! Nurse

Hey guys! So this time I'll be reviewing the monthly HiShop box I got. I supposed to be posted this on September 11 but I got too busy and I only got to prepared a few post in my short holiday.

HiShop box's color is a bit different this time as it's more to mature pink!lol..I love them! In fact, everyone in the house were fussing about the box!haha

Anyway, I'll be reviewing these two products which is Crazy Rumors Lip Color in HibiKiss and Yes!Nurse Hand Cream - the name are so extravagant.

I believe these two were not from Malaysia as I never really heard about them before!

I'm very excited to see this box!I wonder what's in it?

omo..haha

 I captured every single thing of the box! Love love this type of fun-note box coz it's thrilling..

See those awesome ingredients?

 Product link : Yes ! Nurse Protect Your Lovely Hands

So first, review for the hand cream!

I'm so happy when I open the box because there are so many cute note written on every part!hehe..So I decided to capture all those notes..keke

I've tried the hand cream and the first I notice is the strong medicinal smells of the hand cream. Sorry to say that I dislike the smell so much because it makes me feel uncomfortable. Though the packaging is cute but a good smell also would be among my most important criteria.

BUT..the smell won't linger that long or if it does, it won't be as strong as the first applies.

Second, does it moisturise? Oh yes.!It is so light that I almost can't fell anything.. :D

Restore/Repair? I'm not sure because I don't really have anything on my hand to repair..lol

Though I said that, I still will love this! Who knows later if I got scars? It might works :D

 ooopsie..it pops out the second I use it..*sigh*

Product link : Crazy Rumors Lip Color #HibiKiss 

Now let's go to the lip color!

I thought it was a normal lip balm but it turn out to had a nice smell.

I believe HibiKiss is - Hibiscus Kiss?lol

I don't really know how did hibiscus smells like because I already found a lot of hibiscus here but none of them actually had a smell..haha..except the leafy smell..

Anyway, this lip color really smells sweet :)

It moisturise my lips pretty good and it gives a little hint of light pink.

The lip balm also had these sparkly shimmer in them which is not really my cup of tea.

But overall, it is cute, slim(which I rarely found),100% natural and good for a quick apply :D

Currently Hishop do have promotion and discount so please check them out

[REVIEW] Etude House Dear Girls Tint & Lip Balm

Etude House been releasing a lot of new collection recently and the latest one is the Color Pop Collection. Once again in that collection, the lip products are tempting me :D lol

Anyway, from Dear Girls collection, Etude House included a range from base make-up to lip products as a whole complete collection of face make-up without eyeshadows. The first one that attract me the most from this collection would be Cute Eyes Maker. I thought grabbing that instead of this at first but I changed my mind since I'm  not really sure if I could pull off the cute look with my big dark circles..haha XD

So this lip tint came with my haul that I posted last time. I really thought no one would care about me hiding those shop names but I do received a lot of messages until now.

Now back to the review ;

You can't even guess that this lip balm is actually very tiny!Like half of my pinky finger..lol

but it doesn't have any tints with it so don't worry.

The size of the tint was normal but I'm a bit shocked to see how small the lip balm is! Surely I can't help but to laugh..XD ..Unlike other Etude House tints I've tried before, this one is more on the watery side. The tint spread easily and absorb really fast too. I once do few times swatch and realized that it was already too red o.o

Chapped lips! 0.0

Anyway, this is fully applied lip which means that I applied it to my whole lips. I'm not sure why, but whenever I apply tint, only the center will looks like it absorb more tint than the outer one..lol

I choose the strawberry pink(pink) not cherry red(red) this time because I wanted this color for so long..If you've ever tried the super famous Tony Moly tint, the one that before the Cat Chu Wink were released, they have two version with the same color too. Since I never tried the other pink one in their version, so this time, I literally wanted this color and it really does give the color that I imagine :D

As I said, this tint is very watery but thank god it does not leaking. The lip balm sure is small but it's very moisturising :) But the tint itself is not drying..Only with a few swipes, you'll get the same color as above or more bold than that.

It last the whole day for me without drinking or eating and it fade reasonably if I do but still leaves the stain on lips :D..Most of tint did not do color transfer so no worries.

If you wanted to know what makes a difference between the Etude House Fresh Cherry Tint and this one in terms of color payoff, this gives better color payoff than the Fresh Cherry Tint. If you would want to go for natural look, the fresh cherry tint might suit you.

Overall, I do love this and very satisfied with it!

Etude House Dear Girls Collection

Update : Read my REVIEW for the Etude House Dear Girls Tint & Lip Balm  HERE.

Aside from I'm Blooming Collection, Etude House also released a new collection of cosmetics named Dear Girls. Based on the packaging, I think it is aim towards teenagers but hell yeah, everybody can used it if you want.. XD

Dear Girls Cute Eyes Maker a.k.a Dear Girls Aegyosal Maker

Since Korean is a bit obsessed over this aegyosal thing which also means eye bags under the eyes because it  is believe to make the eyes looks larger and cuter.

Dear Girls Lip Balm

The lip balm has three version and the orange one do have glitter in them but I'm not sure about the other two.

Dear Girls Tint&Lip Balm

Since red is like the color of the year for lippies, Etude House is releasing another red tint but this time is included with this sheer lip balm along. Looks good!I want to try this :)

Dear Girls Vitcara Long&Curl Mascara

The packaging color and named remembered me to the first Etude House mascara I tried few years back that is Etude House 66 Big Eye Vitacara..

Dear Girls Be Clear Moisturiser SPF30/PA++

I love the fact that they include sunscreen in this moisturiser because I hate wearing sunscreen.

Besides, the 'Be Clear' terms used by Etude House is usually referring to oily skin/acne-prone skin type. Could this possibly be...

Dear Girls Be Clear BB Cream SPF 30/PA++

Too bad this only available in one shade OTL

Dear Girls Be Clear Pact 

Dear Girls Control Pact 

Hauls @ Tokyoninki & NattaCosme

Finally, all the tests are over and no more classes! My first final paper starts next week so I want to blog as much as I can for now :D

On the last Sunday, I make some purchases from two online shops which are Tokyoninki and NattaCosme. They are basically sells a lot of Japanese beauty products including cosmetics, supplements etc.

I knew about Tokyoninki when I crossed the rakuten.com.my a week ago and I've been wanting to try a hair spray product from their shop. Plus, they currently had sales going on( including Candy Doll products which cheaper price!) so make sure you visit their website here.

For NattaCosme, I found their website about a year ago when I searched for Majolica Majorca products online. Unfortunately the eye shadows palette that I wanted were sold out at the time so I cancelled on buying anything. Just when I saw Tokyoninki, I start to remember the website again.You can visit their website here.

Apparently Tokyoninki haul got more pictures than NattaCosme because of their numerous amount of cute pamphlets that are included with my product..lol

From Tokyoninki~

I only bought that white rose hair spray and the others are just pamphlets and samples :D

They sell the LoveSoap too! If you're a Cheeserland blog reader, you must know that she posted about this soap previously~

CandyDoll products is on sale right now so better grab it fast!

The most popular F.Cup cookies also available in their website. Besides, they gave me free samples from FINE collagen. :)

That Yogurugen seems really good!I'm gonna check it out ~!

Very cute right?!Right? They gave me the Tsubasa paper doll~ hehe :D

From NattaCosme~

Actually I can get the BIORE Cleansing Oil and The Mentholatum Waterlip from Watson but I can't go anywhere right now so I bought this online besides the cheaper price :D

I saw this fuwarinka soft candy while browsing the web and it really took my attention since it is produced by a cosmetics company, Kracie. The candy supposed to make your body odour smells like rose(?) besides improves your skin :)

For the Egyptian Magic cream, I wanted to try it for so long but I'm not sure how it will works on me if I buy the full version. Most reviews said that it works for them but I still not very sure so I bought the samples to try~

Tokyoninki used Poslaju(free shipping for any order) and NattaCosme used Skynet. Both of them arrived a day after the seller sent the products to me. A good experience on trying both of their service. Just for NattaCosme, I hope they add the iPay88 selection for easier transaction so I don't have to bank in and sent they email again for the banking details. It requires much work than just directly pay on the website.

Overall, I'm very satisfied and will come back again  for sure :D

[REVIEW] Baviphat Apple Soft Lip Balm

Lip balm could be my best friends ever since I had a very dry lips. Thankfully it's not chapped because I used lip balms frequently.

My last visit to Fahrenheit88 in Bukit Bintang  is where the Korean festival held and there are a lot of booths available included with the Korean beauty booth. Since Stardust88 sells a lot of Korean and Japan beauty product so they open a booth selling products especially from Clio Professional and Baviphat. I bought few items from this booth as in my previous post.

Stumbling upon the baviphat racks, I saw those cutesy stuff from this brand since Baviphat used vegetables and fruits as their main ingredient so the packaging are related to it. Among all the products, this cute apple lip balm attracts me not only for the cute packaging, but also the heavenly smell.

Consumed a bit of the lip balm :D

The size of this lip balm is really small about a baby hand. It's very light and suit to bring with anywhere. It doesn't had any applicator included and I just have to use my fingers to apply it on my lip but I don't really care since I'm the only one who's use this.

Price can considered as cheap and they even had 30% off when I bought this. The lip balm itself has a red tint with it which is very sheer when put on. As I said, the smell is heavenly but I can't tell what's the smell was..apple?hmm...not really close I think (?) but the smell really lingers around you until the balm dries..

It moisturize pretty well but have to re-apply after an hour or so..

The only downward about this lip balm is it could be a bit sticky but it doesn't last long. Until it dries, you'll feel the stickiness but it's not that bad. It's still bearable for me...

So have you tried it?or any products from Baviphat?
