[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 buy : HERE

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 :)

[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.

Recent Haul with Testerkorea ♥ & How to shop at testerkorea

Hi! I promised that I would do haul post so here it is! As usual, this were bought from testerkorea :)

I do get these questions often, "where do you shop for Korean cosmetics?" or "what is testerkorea?" or "where do you shop [certain] products" so let me tell you here in details. Not that I dislike this kind of questions but I think I mentioned about these in my reviews post almost all the time but yeah, not in details. Details will be in the end of this post, make sure to read it okay! :D

So regarding my haul this time, it doesn't look much isn't it? But it cost me about RM360! 0.0

Sorry that I'm a poor student blogger, I can't afford to buy a lot..haha. The original budget is RM500 but you know, temptations everywhere and it ended with me with some money to do haul.

So here's the list of my haul this time:

1 - CLAIRES Cloud 9 Blane de White Cream (featured in Get it Beauty) - 15,000 won

2 - Innisfree No Sebum Blur Primer - 8,000 won

3 - Tony Moly Relaxing Eye Patch (2 pieces) - 1,200 won each

4 - Etude House Precious Mineral Moist Any Cushion Re-fill - 8,000 won

5 - Missha Velour Flat Pen Tint - 5,440 won

6 -  Missha Painting Rouge (Chiffon) - 5,440 won

7 - Missha Painting Rouge (Syrup) - 5,440 won

8 - VOV Super Fitting LIPQuid - 17,500 won

9 - Skinfood Tomato Cool Jelly Tint - 2,800 won

10 -  Peripera Peri's Lip Tint Water Ink - 7,200 won

12 - TheFaceShop Lovely Me:ex Design My Eyebrow (Auto) - 2,900 won

13 - TheFaceShop Character Mask ( Fox,Tiger,Panda) - 2,500 won each

Almost everything is the newest released from the brands, except the eyeliner and eyebrow, claires white cream and maybe the tomato tint?

I specifically requested testerkorea to add the VOV LIPQuid, Missha Painting Rouge and the characters mask from various brand(but ended up choosing TheFaceShop becoz it was cheaper!lol). Since I'm poor, I only can get one color of the LIPQuid becoz I've eyeing that for sometime! I even fell extra in love with it when Lamuqe (a Korean blogger and youtuber) made a tutorial with it.

For the Missha Painting Rouge, initially I only wanted to buy the Chiffon ver but ended up buying both syrup and chiffon version in different shades.

Recently I've seen lots and lots of animal/character masks and I really wanted to try them once! I saw lots of brands like Berrisom, SNP, Rainbow-something brands are releasing their own and even the scarier characters like skull, opera, clown and etc 0.0 I don't dare to try the scarier ones XD

Some of the current favourite, which could consider that I've been purchasing it a few times is the Etude House Any Cushion and TheFaceShop eyebrow. Well, actually I bought the wrong any cushion, it supposedly the original one but I clicked the moist ver!This is why I shouldn't shop while I'm sleepy XD You could say that I'm terrified when I found out that I paid for the moist one instead the original but after reading reviews, I think it wasn't that bad for oily skin like mine(just prayed that it wasn't!lol)

Wanna know more about what colours that I've selected?Please wait for the full reviews! heeeee :D

So MOVING ON TO TESTERKOREA details.

I've been shopping with testerkorea for so long, even before they changed website. Basically testerkorea is just everything Korea Cosmetics, Korean food/snacks, a little Japanese cosmetics, some luxury brands recently and cute accessories or maybe clothes. You can request almost everything in their website and they'll add the item if they found it for you. I never requested anything other than Korean cosmetics so I don't know how much is their limit.

They changed the shop policy quite a few times and the most recent is everyone get 20% to 10% off on roadsite brands(Etude House, TheFaceShop, Innisfree, etc) and a lot of them are the same price or even cheaper than what the original Korean store offered (I checked this by comparing the Korean websites and their store)

Shipping are available in four types, Registered Air Mail(the cheapest with tracking), K-Packet (it's cheap for people who want a service like EMS but don't wanna pay for EMS-2kg and below only), EMS (The most expensive and fast service), Air Parcel (no comment on this). I usually only used the Registered Air Mail but if I can't wait for two whole weeks, then I'll choose K-Packet becoz it is only a slight pricier than Registered Air Mail. To date, my parcel was never went missing because every service got tracking number. The tricky part is the shipping fee is according to the weight of your item so I can't specifically write on what fee they charged for every service.

Payments can be made through 3 channels.EXIMBAY(credit card,etc), Paypal and Bank transfer. I never used the EXIMBAY and Bank transfer so I can't comment on that. I usually used Paypal. If you're from Malaysia or Thailand, I usually checkout by using Thai Baht because it was cheaper than USD. But be alert. Sometimes USD can be cheaper than Thai Baht. If you want to see which one is cheaper, try checking out with both currencies but don't pay. This is what I do for almost all the time. haha

They speaks English although not perfect but everything in the website is in English except for the currency. You may have to convert the item price by yourself to your country's currency. I don't recommend using the googled converter because it wasn't exact. If you wanted to use the googled money converter then you might have to add about RM2-RM4 for each item so that it wouldn't exceed your budget after checking out :D

Well, I think that's all? I hope you'll find them helpful~ I'll be posting reviews soon coz my semester break just begin <3

Thank you for reading :)
