[REVIEW] Innisfree Eye Primer


Happy New Year everyone.

Sorry, it's kinda late for a post today coz I'm in between whether to put example on how this looks plus with eye shadows on my eyes or not but I ended up doing none. Let me know if any of you would like to see it, I'll try to update this and do it tomorrow.

Basically I ran out of my e.l.f cosmetics eye primer which I love so much but I never reviewed them because I always forgot to review tiny things. Innisfree is kind of rare for me coz I only ever tried their anti trouble cleansing foam and no sebum mineral powder. I still used the cleansing foam sometimes and it's has a unique  cold sensation after applying but sometimes it's kinda stings the eyes. Anyway, onto the review;

Product Information ;

Name : Innisfree Eye Primer
Production : Made in Korea
Weight : 7g
Testerkorea Price : 6,000 won
Testerkorea Sale Price : 4,200 won

The packaging is so simple.

Production date.



Urmm..sorry for the different lighting o.o''
Note : I used the EH &Rose Flowering Eyes in Blossom eye shadow.

I put these color under a running tap water. Honestly, this picture had too much light with it so it looks like it fades a lot but that's not actually the case. The color is very pigmented to begin with but it slightly fade especially the one without the primer.


I had love and hate relationship with this eye primer. It is very good in showing the true colour of the eye shadow but the texture that make it kinda bad. It takes sometime to blend the primer which I believe is the same with Etude House Eye Primer. However after the liquid dries and I put on some eye shadows on the top of it, it feels like tugging which making the application a bit harder especially with hand. If I don't properly blend it, the eye shadows looks like it is not properly applied because some place it might be a bit too much and some none. You probably could see from my swatches picture, the center looks like it had more colour that other place although I applied it the same.

Another thing, this primer would totally be fine to lightly applied eye shadows rather than too many colours on top because if I put on too much colours, then it will easily crease like you put on no primer. Well, I think it's a bit inconvenient because after all, I at least will use two or three colours for eye shadows.

The good side is this primer is useful when your eyes is wet because the color is hardly fade. It's amazing to see that the colour stays on like nothing even if I rubbed it.

I used the Etude House &Rose Flowering Eyes in 'Blossom' for the swatches on top. If you had this palette(not sure if it is only myself) but whenever I put on this colour and blended it out, it looks like I got punch or something because after blending, it looks dull and bruise-like. So after using this primer, the color doesn't change like the one in palette! I was so happy because I really wanted the same colour on the palette to be on my eyes.

Lasting hours is just so-so. As I said, I would at least used 2-3 colours in a time but this easily creased. Not really a good sight to see.

Overall, this eye primer is okay but I love my e.l.f eye primer more because it stays on longer and easily blend.

I rate this;


Thank you for reading :)

My 2013

Hi there guys,

Well, it's not gonna be another beauty review post today although I actually planned to post one today but to think that this post means a lot to me all this year along, so I decided to go with this today. Sorry, it would be about me and me..haha

So, as you guys already know, my blog is basically a beauty blog. Although I hope to expand more to food and lifestyle, I know that I'm so bad at these so I didn't post any..haha
I received a lot of sponsors this year and I'm very thankful to all who kindly sponsored me and bear with all my late post. Honestly, sometimes I stressed out because I'm afraid I can fulfill all these sponsors requirement but I received no complain till this date so hopefully I did my best :)


This year also remarks of my first time being contacted by various company to work together but sadly, I decline almost all of them. Truthfully, I don't live in a big city (specifically Kuala Lumpur) so it is hard for me to meet up and having a proper discussion. Having no proper transport also making it harder for me to go back and forth from my place to the designated place. Of course I'm not making it as a reason, but my family is also not so supportive of me in this blogging world especially my mother. She preferred of me to focus on studying first before doing all of these related to blog. What she said is true, I'm still young and still studying to add. Who knows there's gonna be more chance in the future? :D

I also would like to thank to all my readers who visited my blog. Even if it is just a visit, it's already made me so happy. I ain't pretty to begin with and my blog is all only about review and beauty so it's actually boring to visit my crappy blog. Plus my English is not good too because I originally started this blog to improve my English and I'm still learning until now. I'm really glad that there's no one actually bashed me for my bad grammar even though I know there might be some of you that want to auto correct me..lol

Special to Yue Rain from Great Skin&Life because being one my closest blogger friend. We never met in real but she is so kind to me as she had given numerous advice regarding do and don't for my face.Sometimes we even chat,but mostly she's the one who started it since I'm so shy to initiate any..lol. Other than that, I'm so happy to know more of my fellow bloggers through blogging this year like SampleHime, Beauty-Junkie's Bethany, Rini from Rinicesillia, Winter's Blossom Laura Leia and more! I can't describe how awesome these people and their blog is.

Lastly, thanks you so much to all of you again.
Blogging has been a part of my dream and thank you for making it real for me :)
Love you guys!


Happy New Year! Good luck to all of you this year too :)

[REVIEW] A'pieu Pure Tint #Strawberry

Hello guys,
I think I'm in the mood in blogging this week so I probably will posted a review a day :D

So in my latest haul, I bought this tint from A'pieu which is selling pretty cheap in testerkorea. I've seen other tint product under A'pieu but since I'm not sure how it works on me so I only bought one to test it out.

Product Information ;

Name : A'pieu Pure Tint
Production : Made in Korea
Related Brand : Missha
Colors Available : Grapefruit (Orange) , Cherry (Red) and Strawberry (Light Pink)
Weight : 8g


I think the name is pretty simple.



Though it was on sale, it is a new production.



Came in a doe foot applicator attached with the cap.


On the bottle, the color look very intense but since it is a water type tint,
 it dissolves into the skin making it lighter in color.


 Left photo is one swipe and the right one is two swipes.


There are three color shades in this collection. I personally choose the Strawberry color 
because it looks natural on lips because the color supposed to be light pink.

Then, I actually forgot that it is a water type tint so I'm not pretty sure if it would give nice moisturising lips as Etude House Fresh Cherry Tint because of the texture that sips into the skin in seconds.

To my surprised, it does! Well, it's not much of moisturising but at least it wasn't drying 
like a lot of water tint type that I've tried.

The downside is just like other water type tint, this doesn't last long after a drink or so although the color is very pigmented after two swipes and it taste bitter too...urrghh ;(  But after it dries, it tastes sweet?lol

Other than that, it sips to my lip fine lines making it uneven in color.
It would rather suit people who had plumper lips more.

Overall, it's okay in color but the taste should be improve.

I rate this;


Thank you for reading and Happy New Year!!

[REVIEW] Skinfood Viva Waterproof Brush Pen Eyeliner #Black


Hey guys!
Today I'll be reviewing this eyeliner I just got from Skinfood. I'm actually drawn to brown eyeliner more but I'm not sure why every time I bought a new eyeliner, it is always black.

Anyway, let's get to the review
Product Information

Name : Skinfood Viva-Waterproof Brush Pen Eyeliner
Production : Made in Korea
Shades : Available in black and brown



I really love this type of eyeliner 


The color is really intense black.


The left picture is after I put my hand under the running water and 
the right one is after I rub off the middle line.

This is how it looks like on my eyes.


I really don't read reviews before I bought this so I just pray that it would works great and thank god it did!The color is very intense and I don't need to layer it much to obtain the dark black color.

The eyeliner claim itself to be waterproof and yes, it is waterproof but it is not rub proof. It is easily rub off when it is still wet but not when the liquid is dry.

For the brush tip, it is really soft and thin which it is can be use to draw a very thin line. 

The eyeliner can last on my oily eyelid for more than 6 hours although it might be 
a bit slightly rubbed if I put on a thick eyeliner. 

No strange smell from the eyeliner not even a slight.

No sparkles/glitters and it dries really fast after an application.

Overall, I really like this eyeliner. It is easy to use, travel wise and stays long on my eyes.

I rate this ;
*would be perfect if it isn't rub-proof..hehe*

Thank you for reading
