[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

[REVIEW] Testerkorea Real Tester : MISSHA Lighting Tone Up Base SPF30/PA++


Hi there!

I've been chosen as the testerkorea's first real tester and they sent me three items to try in total! I'm so excited to share my experience with you for all these three products so there will be three review posts today!

As you might know, I've been testerkorea lover since forever and I always got my Korean beauty products from them since they offered affordable price which I can't get at any other shops. If you haven't try testerkorea, do your first purchase now, HERE and pssttt..they also give various samples!

These are a little details about this product;
Brand : Missha
Net Weight : 20ml
Production : Made in Korea
Colors : Mint(the one that I reviewed today), Peach and Violet.
Price : 7920 won
Where to buy : HERE




Simple and pocket size product.


It is very easy to squeeze out the products so make sure you're careful when squeezing it out.


The reason is why I chose mint (green) is that this color can cancel out any redness on the face.


I'm not sure if the difference it obvious in this picture but I can clearly see that it cancel out my redness a little bit and makes my skin looks brighter after it was blended.

The cream itself is so light that I can't even feel anything on face after it was blended. Also, I'm not too sure if they add anything mint in it coz it feels a little cool on face when I put the cream on. However it does goes away after it was blended.

It does have a little flowery fragrance to it and it does smell familiar to me but I can't remember what it is. Too bad I didn't found any full translated ingredients on the box, so, sorry for that.

Aside from cancelling and brightening my face, I also feel that this is a good base when my skin feels a little dry because this feel hydrating on the face and does make my makeup last longer.

If you would like to see the full face of me wearing this as a base makeup, lookout to the next post, Waterking Cover Cushion review :)

Overall, it's a nice base if you're looking for a hydrating base that will help to make your skin looks healthier :)

[REVIEW] Testerkorea Real Tester : Nature Republic Bath & Nature Body Butter


Hey guys! We met again after so long~

Today I'll be sharing my review for this body butter that was sent by testerkorea as a part of their "Real tester" event. Please look out for another two review post that will be post today in accordance to the whole review :)

If you're reading my blog long enough, you would have known on how much I love shopping at testerkorea.  Many have been asking until now and now I clarify again that I shop with testerkorea for all my korean products because they offered affordable price with lots of payment and shipping options available. They also gave a ton of samples! :)  

So onto the review;
Brand : Nature Republic
Net Weight : 150ml
Production : Made in Korea
Where to buy :  HERE


Yass for the full English translations of the ingredients!

It came in a tub like this :)

White cream :D


Honestly, it just looks white but in real, it disappear into the skin and leaves no white cast when applying.

The body butter smells really really good, almost like a peach candy. It might smells strong on the first application but it'll gradually be softer in fragrance later.

Thought it may seems like it would look too greasy but in real, it doesn't! In fact, the cream absorbs quite fast into the skin and leave it moisturised and smooth! I could say that it performs better than my favourite lotion XD

It leaves no greasy nor sticky feeling and the moisture stays on until you wash it off. Just one thing that I notice is that, the cream is almost gel like so to grab an amount, it might be a little hard since it was like harden in the tub. I'm not saying that the cream is frozen nor dry in the tub, it just the molecule stick on strong with each other, if you could understand what I mean XD

Overall, it's a nice body butter and I always use it after the shower or at anytime where my skin feels dry.

Where to buy Korean/Japanese Cosmetics ≧◠◡◠≦✌

Hello hello~I thought I'm going to take a nap or so
 but it is too hot right now and probably it's because I took 4 sachets of coffee last night..hehe :D
I don't sleep for the whole night because my 2nd final paper this morning..*hello eyebags*

So you would probably know of what I'm going to blog this time~
I've been receiving a lot of emails and comments regarding where to buy Korean 
cosmetics with a cheaper price..I should really include that in my review post but 
always forgot to wrote that.Anyway, this entire blog post is about where to buy cosmetics 
with cheaper price or online shops that I usually bought from..

1 - Gmarket Malaysia a.k.a Qoo10


Payments channel : ipay88(bank transfer includes maybank,cimb bank,etc), credit card and paypal.

Just recently I found this website which sells a bit about everything. I found that most of the sellers are from Korea and Hong Kong. The website is basically more like ebay in my opinion but they had
coupons for grab everyday which you could get further discount in any products you choose to buy.
Most of the cosmetics sellers offers free shipping(yeay!) and their products is a lot cheaper than ebay or any local outlets. Since then I've been ordering almost all my make-up from this site.
But, you have to be clever in finding sellers. Choose the seller that have good review from the customers and those who clearly stated their price and shipping details. A lot of sellers(or maybe qoo10) usually listed the products as in sale but they actually hide the original price in the selection area so be careful okay~? 
You are not from Malaysia?Then don't worry,Qoo10 had global page too!Just click the link above and you'll see the country listed at the bottom and find your country.I believe those that are from western would had to choose Qoo10 Global.

2 - Cosmetic-love.com


Payments channel : paypal and credit card.

Before I found Qoo10, this is my most favorite website of all to buy Korea Cosmetics. Although they didn't have a large range of products at first but now you can see that they added a lot of brand and products. One reason why I love this website so much is they offer free shipping no matter how much you bought and they also giving free samples!(yeay! again). There is once which my parcel is no where to be found or maybe missing in delivery but I can't track it since the parcel is normal mail which no tracking number is given. The seller kindly refund me after that without much questions and reasons. Their price is cheaper compared to ebay and local outlets. So yeah, a plus point given! One more thing, keep watching the sales going on their website because I got my Kiss Note from them last time..hehe :D

3 - ebay


Payment channel : Paypal.

This is my first ever website I used to shop my make-up. That time there wasn't much online seller you can find that sells Korea Cosmetics so only by this site I can get my supplies..lol..Anyway,my preferred seller would be RubyRubyshop, cosmetic-love(yes, they're ebay seller from the start but they open a website which customers can get their product without had to pay for paypal fees) and more. Rubyrubyshop always do sales and auction but after I found cosmetic-love website, I'm no longer purchase from them(RubyRubyshop) since although they do sales,sometimes the price is higher than the products without sales but there are always seller that sells cheaper than Qoo10 and cosmetic-love. You only have to be clever about this.Find trusted seller(which got good feedback and scores) and research the items that they sell(to prevent fakes)

4 - Japanese Cosmetics sellers
There are various seller I found so these are some of them which I 
bought my Japanese cosmetics previously.
