Winter Haul

It finally arrives today!Yeay~~

I bought this when testerkorea had 30% sales on their website and the price is really cheap *omg*

Since I actually have shopped few times before this haul, I thought I'm totally broke but I'm thankful to my little business made profit in a short time so I managed to buy these few items. I really need most of these products so it's okay though..haha

The products are ;

Skinfood Black Sugar Perfect First Serum (free Cotton Pad!) - 7,350 won

Skinfood Viva Waterproof Brush Pen Eyeliner #Black - 6,300 won

Skinfood Everyday Masks (Tomato & Green Tea) - 700 won each

Etude House Lash Perm All Shockara - 7,700 won

Innisfree Eye Primer - 4,200 won

A'pieu Pure Tint #Strawberry - 3,150 won

A'pieu Magic Pore Cover Balm - 6,160 won

A'pieu Snail 3D Sheet Mask - 700 won

I said that this mascara doesn't perform well on me but recently, I think it has changed? My lashes looks longer and it doesn't clump too :D

I coincidentally found this eyeliner when I browse for eyeliners in testerkorea. I love this brush pen type more and Skinfood newest product offered the criteria I want( I should get a brown one too!). I just saw the word waterproof and right away adding this to my cart. I also planned to buy another gel type eyeliner soon because I think it would suit a lot of events :D

I wanted this serum by Skinfood for so long and when I saw this is on sale, I grab it right away. This is so popular omg..and I easily fell into the nice-review-by-bloggers-trap so I don't took a sec to add this into my order.Plus, it's time to change another skincare routine. I probably will try this next month!

I was surprised to see the big box and found out that it was the cotton pad for the serum!lol

It was way bigger than the serum itself..haha

I ran out my eye primer (e.l.f cosmetics) and since I'm hauling, I grab this one from Innisfree. I dislike the Etude House eye primer because it doesn't work well with me so I choose this instead.

Hopefully sometimes in the future, if I had no choice, I would re-try the Etude House eye primer again. Who knows it might works?

A'pieu! omg..I really wanted to laid my hands on this brand after saw many good reviews about it. Basically it is another brand under the same company as Missha but based on the design, I think they targeted this brand for youngsters which is different than Missha.

I choose the balm(I wanted to buy two at first but since I don't know how it performs on me so I took one to try) Will buy more if it works great!

I'm a huge fan of lip tint because it lasts longer and very light on lips. Since I'm the type who lick my lips for the whole time, I need something that can't easily disappear so I bought this cheap selling tint to try :D

3 types of masks! Personally I love buying masks but when they happen to arrive to me, I suddenly got no urge to use it..(like most of the time) but I will make sure that I won't waste this..lol

I actually purchased a few products before this and there are still some products that is not arrived yet. Probably I post them later..haha

Thanks for dropping by!

[REVIEW] The Face Shop Face It Velvet Skin Primer

Hi ,

So I decided to review this primer which I have for quite a while. I saw this was crowned No.1 in "Get It Beauty" blind test so I decided to try it out.

I still love my Banila co primer but sometimes a change of pace is not wrong right? After all I'm a beauty junkie so I can't be satisfied by just trying a product for a long time.

By the way, I got this with a box but not sure where did I put it or it was mistakenly trashed so no boxy-piccies. (For ingredients, you may look up to other blogger reviews, they did put the ingredients picture from the box)

Product information

Name : The Face Shop Face It Velvet Skin Primer

Production : Made in Korea

Volume : 30g / 1.05 oz.

It came with a pump.

Instead of writing the manufacturing date, they did otherwise. In fact, I like this better.

Can be used 12 months after opening. Someone tell me what PET means?

The product is a transparent gel type. 

Partial blending. Because it is transparent so it's hard to notice.

This primer will create a soft smooth skin after applied and I use it to cover my pores especially on cheekbone, nose, forehead and chin. That way, my foundation will glides easily without looking bumpy.

Although the primer claimed that it is best for oily skin, it does because the finish is soft matte but in terms of oil control, I guess it doesn't do much. I did blot frequently to get rid of the oil from my skin.

The texture is transparent gel type and it is very light on skin. I have no experience in breaking out while using this.

There is a faint flowery powder smell to it which smells really pleasant. It wasn't over the top for me because I always love something that smells good.

Price is reasonable. I got this for about RM30-RM40 somewhere is between. As I remembered, it is cheaper than Banila co primer.

One 30g tube last me for so long. I think it has been about 4-5 months now and I still have a very little product left.

It is a worth try if you're looking for something that could cover up pores without breaking out your skin but if you're looking for oil control primer, I guess this is not for you. I already bought a new primer from another brand so I'll be trying that after I finished this up.

Thank you for reading :)

[REVIEW] Banila co. Prime Primer #Classic Matte

Hey guys! Sorry for the lack updates in my blog.

It's because I'm partially busy + lazy. Spending lots of time study and playing games or just be a silent reader of some beauty blogs..lol

After my friend said yesterday that I haven't post anything in my blog, makes me realize I shouldn't do that. It's because we have a three days of days off so I took the chance to write one plus it's raining here and it makes me feel happy.. :)

Anyway, today I'll be reviewing my most favorite make-up primer ever that is Banila co Prime Primer in Classic Matte. Well, this is basically isn't new to those who knows Banila co. It's been around since 2010 , I think and it was the bestseller in Korea. In 2011, this primer is crowned as the best seller in Japan which is considered a big deal. They added a lot of version since then based on the skin type/skin problem.

I look around since these past years for this but ebay just sell them too expensive! As I remembered, the first time I found this on ebay, the price is about RM89+ . I thought it was too expensive and I never tried the samples so I'm afraid it would not work as expected.

Just recently qoo10 start operating, I saw a seller selling this with quite a cheap price!They have sales going on that time and I think this is about RM39+. That's A LOT of difference from the ebay price.

However, only two types were available with the seller, which is hydrating and classic matte and it was just right because I'm targeting the classic matte ver!

 I think because it is duty free so the price is lower?

 Too bad everything is in Korean language :(

 I thought the bottle looks cheap at first..haha..

 Come in a dispenser pump which is very convenient for me.

I don't know how to describe the texture but it is somewhere milky and moist. I love the way that the primer feels so light on face and it smoothen out my skin before wearing make-up.

I had quite a lot of dry patches because of the cleanser I used but my skin is really oily. This primer is just right for me because it doesn't feel oily and it preps my skin so beautifully and cover the pores.

It smells florally but not too strong. It is just right plus I love everything that smells good!

It's white in color but it dries clear. I used this almost my entire face because every parts of my face needs primer to control the oil. As far as I used this for almost two months, I saw that the primer really helps my make-up stays longer on face and it controls my sweat too.

Since it is so hot here like almost 35C everyday, I do sweat a lot and sometimes it just bothers me because I can't even wear my make-up longer because it is easy to spoilt. The primer just help controlling the sweat but I don't really say that it clog the pores. I don't have any breakouts of using this so no worries :)

Ok what else? I don't know what to say anymore but I love everything about this primer. Needs to stock up soon coz I'm running out of it :D

Anyway, thanks for reading!

[REVIEW]Laura Mercier Foundation Primer

Hi~!This is my second post for today!Yeah..I wanna flood this blog with reviews everyday!haha..

Anyway,I got this foundation primer from Nicole's Mirror blog when she held a giveaway last year~I think I have this for quite long though and I've keep this picture for so long too..lol

I was happy when they wrote an oil free primer but I didn't test it on blotting paper..awww..I'm sorry..I totally forgot about that..

I remember that I wear this quite few times back in the days where I used BB cream every single day..I would say that this is easy to apply and spread and it is a glossy type..

Besides that,this is dried quite fast so don't worry about the texture because it absorb quite good and doesn't leave a sticky feeling plus it makes my skin smoother.Although the color is white but it dries transparent.

But what I don't like the most about this primer is it doesn't have a good oil control and the smell was so terrible..like a burn metal?Seriously,the smell makes me wanna throw up..lolol..

So have you tried this?What you say?
