Dear Girls Be Clear BB cream [Etude House] Review

Hi sweeties!

Todays update is a review about Etude House's Dear Girls Be Clear BB cream ^^

My favorite BB cream (Holika Holika Peach girl) has become incredibly hard to find during the last months, I still don't know what happened to it, but now I find myself in the situation of having to find a new BB that will satisfy my needs, that's why I purchased Dear Girls Be Clear BB cream from eBay for 10.49$. It contains 30g of product and expires 12 months after it's opening.

As you probably have noticed after seeing this picture, the adorable package of this BB is what caught my attention first. It's pink, it has cute floral patterns and random drawings, it looks very feminine and it's easy to carry around because of it's size.

The second thing that caught my attention is it's formula.

1. It's paraben, benzophenone, talc, artificial color and triethanolamine FREE

2. It contains vitamin extracts: Sea-buckthorns, fig extract, pomegranate extract, grapefruit extract & lemon zest extract.

3. It contains organic oils: Brazilian nut oil, sunfower seed oil, jojoba seed oil, argan oil, olive oil and almond oil to keep your skin moisturized. 

It has a 30 spf and whitening effect.

All perfect so far right?

Unfortunately, this BB comes in a single shade. My skin is very light, and it has a yellow subtone, this BB looked ok at the start, but once I spread it over my hand it was a little too dark for me, which was kinda disappointing.

I figured the difference is not that big and I can always make it look lighter with my loose powders, but I still miss my old BB T~T it was just perfect.

 It's coverage is medium-high as you can see on the picture above, I only used a thin layer of product.

However, I'm still using this BB while looking for my perfect one. It feels good, it keeps your skin moisturized and leaves a semi matte finish. It has a nice soft smell that lingers on your skin only for a while. I do have to reapply it before the morning is over though, but I mostly have to do this with all the BB creams I tried so far.

Conlusion,

Its actually a good BB, it has a pure formula that nourishes your skin and keeps it healthy and moisturized, the problem is it only comes in one shade which is a little too dark for me, I also prefer BB's with a dewier look. If you're looking for a BB with a nice formula, medium to high coverage, spf, semi matte finish and you skin is not too dark, this is for you!

♥♥♥♥♥ 4/5
(Mostly because of it having one shade only)

Dear My Blooming Lips Talk Etude House PK003 Lipstick Review

Hi cuties!  

As you can see I redesigned my blog, and it'll be only in english from now on because I think I can reach out to more people this way. I hope you like it :D

Today I bring you a review of a product I've been wanting to try for a while, it's Etude house's "Dear My Blooming Lips Talk" lipstick.

I bought it from eBay for 8.90$ and it comes in an adorable package, not as cute as the antoinette crystal shine lips one but still lovely. You can choose out of 24 shades, I chose PK003 because I needed a natural but sweet light color for my daily look, and to be honest I couldn't have chosen better.

Here is a picture of the swatch on my arm so you can get an idea of how much pigmentation this lipstick has:

And here's how it looks on my lips:

Lovely right? 

Now lets talk about it's properties. This lipstick makes my lips feel moisturized without having to reaply it too often, it has a good pigmentation and it's scent is barely noticeable, but nice, and it goes away very fast. The only thing I didn't like is that it makes the dry areas of your lips become very noticeable, but I fixed that by using chapstick before applying the lipstick :p

I really liked the end result and the adorable package so I'm happy with this purchase and I'd probably get a new one when this one runs out, which won't be any soon ^^

Hope this review was helpful, have an awesome day.

Holika Holika Peach Girl BB Cream Review!

Hi girls!

This is my actual favorite BB cream, I bought it from eBay for 12$ and I haven't stopped repurchasing it since then,  I don't know why, but it's been getting harder and harder to find, to the point where only one seller in ebay has it and the price has gone up to 23$ plus 43$ shipping, which I obviously won't even bother spending on it :/! It's so sad because I still haven't found a BB cream that makes me nearly as happy as this one and apparently this one stopped being sold... I'll talk about it anyway.

The box is adorable,  pink girly colors and an iridiscent border on it's name, I like it a lot.
The container might look boring and it's made of plastic, but it makes the product easy to use and you can get just the ammount you need because of it's perfec sized hole. It also comes with a pretty creamy blush and a little mirror that caught my attention from the first time.

     (Here's a swatch of the blush color, isn't it pretty?)

It's a creamy and easy to extend cream, it has a delicious peachy scent and it has a medium to high coverage.

It leaves a good face finish and a moisturized and pretty skin, it's a moist finish but you can always seal it with powders for a matte look. I personally like using a little powder for a semi matte effect that looks healthy and amazing both in pictures and in real :)

I really can say nothing bad about this BB, it's just perfect for me, I love it and I'm so sad I can't find it anywhere anymore, if anyone knows a similar BB cream please let me know.

¿Which is your favorite BB cream? 

Have a nice day ^^

Baviphat Magic Girls Plus BB Cream review

Hi sweethearts! ¿How's your week going?

More than a month ago I purchased my usual BB cream (Holika's Peach girl BB) from e-Bay. I noticed my old one was coming to an end, and as you already know products ordered from Korea take around a month to arrive. So I waited, and waited... 36 days passed, and I was so pissed, my old BB was already empty. So I contacted the seller, enquiring about my item location. ¿Can you imagine what he told me?

"Oh, the product is out of stock and we won't receive it until a week or so, you can either get a refund or wait until then for us to deliver the product to you"

Well, couldn't you have told me this before waiting for 36 days after having paid for the product?  he/she even had it set as "shipped". This person didn't even bother or try to contact me for telling me the product was out of stock, nor did he talk about it on the auction, until I decided to send a message one month later to enquire about my purchase. I was really pissed, I obviously got my money back, but seriously, I'm not buying anything from this person anymore. Anyway back to the point!

My BB was already empty, and I couldn't order a new one from Korea because I'd have to wait for another month and I didn't have time for that. At the end, I purchased Fresh feel for oily skin Magic Girs BB cream from the spanish e-Bay because I couldn't find my BB elsewhere, had it home next day.

It's package is ok, nothing special. The good thing is that for once, I was able to read the ingredients and the description because they weren't written in korean. Sadly the ingredient list wasn't very convincing for me.

It contains Dimethicone (Silicon, which isn't good for oily acne prone skin, since it can block your pores) it surprised me because this BB is supposed to be for "oily and sensitive skin", parabens, and squalane (which can be animal (shark liver oil) or vegetable (from olive oil), it doesn't mention which one of these it contains.

"Contain squalane for a fresh moisture, it makes you skin tone smooth, it has a 30spf, it contains natural ingredients Hamamelis and verdolaga, special for sensitive skin"

When it says it contains natural ingredients it means some of them, not ALL, and I didn't like that it contains dimethicone and parabens.

I still tested it, even tho I didn't like it's ingredients

- Nice shade, I think it fits light skin with yellow tones best.

- Medium-High coverage, it actually makes your skin tone smooth and gives you a "good face" effect.
- It has a matte finish and it feels light.

- Smells like solar screen ( exactly like that xD )

- 30 spf

- It doesn't control oil, at least not for me.

- It moisturizes skin ( Well, it doesn't dry it but I didn't feel moisturized )

Conclusion:

- It makes your skin tone smooth and it protects it from the sun, it has a matte finish. It doesn't control oil for me, nor does it moisturize my skin. I prefer BB's with a dewy or semimate finish so this isn't for me. But if you're looking for something that covers your flaws, has spf, leaves a matte finish and you don't mind about parabens and dimethicone, this is for you. Also have to mention how afforable this BB is considering how long it lasts.

Hope the review was useful ;) have a wonderful week.

Cat wink's BB Cream, Magic Bubble Peeling Pack & First attempt at making cupcakes

UPDATE: After using this BB cream my face got a terrible break out,  after two hours my make up got spoiled, it made my skin oily and incredibly greasy, not to mention the way it enlarged my pores. A total disaster and waste of money, I don't recommend it.

Hi ladies! Hope you're having a nice week. Mine is being awesome, can't complain about it.

 I bought Tony Moly's Cat's Wink BB cream a few weeks ago for 10,99$ in eBay. It arrived yesterday after a long wait (Finally!), and the kind seller included a couple of gifts.

 

I was very excited about receiving this parcel :D

As you can see the BB comes in a extremely cute package. Unfortunately for me, my parcel got smashed and the box is destroyed as you can barely see if you look at the corners. It actually looks so much worse in real... This pissed me off a little bit :<

The cream is of a very light shade that fits my milky skin perfectly xD

It has a gel consistency, and as you can see on my next picture, it covers skin flawlessly. It's coverage reminded me of Holika Holika's Petit BB cream, but this one is just a lighter shade, just what I was looking for (As I said in one of my previous entries, Holika's Petit BB is just too dark for me!)
The problem is after wearing for a while the product just... becomes really weird, it enlarges my pores, makes them more noticeable and it creases all over your face. It actually happened the three times I used this product, not only once, no idea why this happened tho.

Everything on the box is written in Korean so I couldn't understand anything at all, but after researching in the internet I figured out what this BB is about.

Tony Moly's Cat's Wink BB cream is supposed to control oil, whiten and brighten your skin and it has a very good coverage, it can cover blemishes and dark spots easily. It also has a 25 SPF and it's benzophenone, mineral oil and artificial dye free.

Apparently it doesn't work for me :S

About Etude's Magic Bubble water peeling; It can be used once or twice a week, it's some kind of gel that becomes foam once you apply it gently on your face and massage it. It has a wonderful scent, and it makes your face feel great as you keep massaging, but I didn't feel any difference on my skin after using it to be honest. Maybe one use is not enough to feel any effect...

Have a wonderful week, 

X Laura

Arrivederci Potingues!

Hola cielines :P

Hoy vengo con la lista de los productos que he acabado (o que no voy a volver a usar xD)

y el por qué los usaría de nuevo, o no.

¡Potingues, os convoco, apareced!

(Perdonad es que hoy se me va la pinza)

1. Hot pink BB cream de Skin79 ☻

- No la volvería a usar, porque necesito una cobertura mayor y la segunda vez que la pedí o le cambiaron la formula o me dieron una falsa, que no valía para nada, me marcaba los poros, se hacían bolitas, no cubre nada...

2. Cremas corporales Fruit Fusion del mercadona ☻

- Las adoro, hidratan y tienen un olor riquísimo. Las volvería a comprar pero ya no las venden :(

Review Aquí  

3. Peach girl BB cream de Holika Holika ☻

- Es la BB que uso actualmente, deja un acabado de muy buena cara precioso, me encanta el tono que tiene, y además trae un blush en la tapita y lo adoro. La volvería a comprar definitivamente.

Review Aquí

4. Cat's Wink BB cream de Tony Moly ☻

- Desastre total. Me destrozó la cara y me la llenó de granitos como una alergía, además engrasa la cara y marca los poros. No la vuelvo a comprar ni de coña.

Review Aquí 

5. Base Vitaminada 5 en 1 de Deliplus ☻

- La verdad es que no es nada del otro mundo, pero es la que uso por que es bastante económica y cumple su función como base, además la venden en el mercadona en el que compro siempre... La compraría otra vez, pero seguro que hay mucho mejores por ahí.

6. Essence Color & Go ☻

- Es un tono precioso y me costó 1€, si la volvería a comprar sin pensarmelo. Pero hay que usar una base debajo de este esmalte por que tiñe la uña azul :)

Review Aquí 

7. Dalacín Tópico ☻

- Ya he comprado un recambio, me lo recomendó mi farmaceútico para secar granitos, no hace milagros pero si que se secan con más rápidez que normalmente.

8. Monogotas Vainilla Gel de ducha y crema corporal ☻

- Sí, sí y sí! Adoro su olor y los seguire comprando hasta que los paren de vender ^^

9.  Mascarilla amarilla stylius de mercadona ☻

- Huele genial y te deja el pelo super suave, sin enredos y es maravillosa, un sí rotundo.

10. Tratamiento anti espinillas y exfoliante anti espinillas clearskin professional ☻

- Tiene un olor desagradable para mi gusto, y además no me hizó absolutamente nada de nada. La verdad es que no esperaba que me hiciera nada, pero me gusta usar estos productos para sentir que "me cuido la piel". No lo volvere a comprar.

11. Bálsamo labial EOS sabor summer fruit ☻

- Terrible. Su olor me pone enferma y me marea... NO.

Review Aquí 

Por cierto, el sábado cuando pase por mercadona ví que ya empezaban a vender fresas, y yo que me encanta la repostería y hacía tiempo que queria hacer una tarta de fresas compré un paquetito sin pensarlo... El resultado:

¿Que os parece? ^^

Espero que os haya gustado la entrada y que os haya sido útil :D

Que empezeis la semana con buen pie y ánimo.

Besitos
