Daiso Charcoal Peel off mask & Nose blackhead remover pack review

Hello sweethearts!

I'm a week away from starting school and I'm really excited but also have been busy. I've been waiting so long for todays update because I've been wanting to try this products for a long time, it's Daiso's peel off mask set that some of you might already know. First time I ordered it from eBay it didn't arrive after a month and I ended up getting a refund, so I had to repurchase it and wait for another half a month for it to arrive, now they're finally home.




I bought it from eBay for 9$, it contains both the charcoal peel off mask and the nose blackhead remover. The stickers on the packaging are kind of cute and they really catch your attention at first sight, but I removed them right away because they're not practical at all. I liked how everything comes written in japanese but also in english.

They're pretty much the same thing, but the charcoal peel off is for the entire face, while the nose blackhead remover is obviously only for the nose.

1. Description:

Formulated with the natural ingredients from Oak trees, it removes oils and all dirt and deeply clean the pore, leaving your skin clearer with less visible pores. It contains 80 gr of product.

2. How to use:

-After cleansing your face, evenly apply on the affected area and let it dry for 10-15 min. If completely dried out, peel it off starting at the bottom, pulling toward the top.
-Do not use more than twice per week.
-For sensitive skin, apply facial essence before using, and slowly peel it off starting at the top toward the bottom.

3. Sexy picture time:



4. Result:


5. My opinion:

- The charcoal peel off mask is a thick black cream with a soft herbal scent, while the nose blackhead remover is a white thick cream with a sunscreen scent that totally reminds me of white glue's texture, it's really sticky. I recommend to use enough amount of product to cover the affected areas evenly cause if not it'll be hard to peel off in one piece and it won't be as effective. Once applied I felt it tightening my skin as time goes by, but it was nothing uncomfortable. I peeled it off slowly and I was really surprised when I saw all that came out of my face, dry skin, facial hair, blackheads... It didn't hurt at all but my skin isn't very sensitive :D! (It does literally wax your facial hair off though so be careful if your skin is sensitive). Once off my face, my skin felt super soft and my enlarged pores were visibly reduced, leaving a smoother surface than usual. It obviously didn't take all the blackheads out, specially the ones that were deeper in the skin, but it did a really good job and I loved the result, this product has become a must in my routine, plus it's really affordable.

Have a nice week,

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!

Rating:

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

Hope this review was useful :D

Tony Moly Appletox Peeling Cream & Etude House Missing U Hand cream Review

Hi cuties ^^!  Today I'm reviewing Tony Moly's Appletox Peeling Cream and Etude's House Missing U Owl Hand Cream.


As you can see both of them have epicly cute packages. I'll talk about the peeling first :p! It costs around 10$ in eBay


Product Description 

I't has a very creamy consistency and a very nice and fresh apple scent. 
It contains Green Apple Extract, Minerals (Mg, Fe), Vitamins A, E, B1, B6, C, AHA Acid and is meant to maintain skin's natural firmness, brightness and exfoliate dead skin cells. it expires after 2 years once it's been opened and it has 80 gr of product! Quite a lot.



How to use & Conclusion

I use this after cleansing my face, I dip my finger in and withdraw enough cream to cover my entire face with a thin layer of product. I massage my face for around 2-3 minutes and let it make effect for 30 seconds more. First impression is it makes my skin feel relaxed and moisturized. After massaging my face for 2 minutes white particles start appearing. Once rinsed off it leaves a feeling of softness and freshness n your skin, it also makes your skin look brighter. I've heard people saying this cream may not be good for oily skin, well, this is not true! My skin is really oily and it makes my skin feel clean and soft. In conclusion, I love this peeling cream... It doesn't irritate my skin, but it's not even delicate, so I can't tell if it's only me :P


¿Will I buy it again?  Definitely Yes! It feels great on my skin and I love how the package looks like, haha.

Now I'm gonna talk about Etude House's Owl Hand Cream, which costs around 10$ in eBay.


Product Description

Formulated with Shea Butter and Herb water rich in certified organic nutrients. It's eco-friendy, paraben, alcohol and mineral oil free. This cream doesn't only help moisturize dry hands, but it also helps our endangered flying friends xD. 

It is available in four different colours and scents. 

Green Owl: Apple Scent
Blue Owl:
Sweet Cotton Candy Scent
Pink Owl: Cherry Scent
Yellow Owl: Peach Scent

it comes in a really cute house shaped box, which is made with recycled paper.
 



Mine is torn because it was wrapped in gift paper and the cellophane took half of the box away with it xD. It also came with a little owlie mobile phone chain thingie which I loved, it was a really nice detail.


Conclusion

It's a moisturizing hand cream that doesn't make your hands sticky and gets absorved quickly. It has a very rich scent and the package is awesome. ¿Will I buy it again? No, because it brings such a tiny ammount of cream, and the price is too high considering how much the cream lasts. I'd only buy it if it was cheaper. I'll probably refill the package with another cream when it's over :p haha

Goodbye Pore ever Etude House Primer Review

Hi cuties!
Today's update comes with a review of one of my favorite products. It's Etude House's Goodbye Pore Ever Primer!


The Package is awesome and I love it.

 
The ingredients are written in Korean so I couldn't understand anything.
This primer promises to minimize pores, control oil and it makes it easier for you to use your make up. It contains 20ml and its price is around 9$ in eBay.




 The quantity of product we use is easily regulated by the tiny hole of the container. It has a soft vanilla scent that lingers on your skin very shortly, it's also very creamy.

But, does it really control oil and minimize pores?
Here's a picture of my skin without any make up on it.


As you can see my pores are enlarged due to my ability to destroy and explode pimples and blackheads. I apply not even a pea of the product all over the affected area, it takes around 5 minutes to settle so don't apply your make up until it's completely dry. When it is your skin will feel velvety and soft, but the wait is totally worth it to get the desired result, which is this:


As you can see my pores are obviously smoother and less noticeable on the second picture, I didn't really expect this product to work SO WELL.
it does promise to control oil, I really don't know if this is true because I always use my BB and lose powders after using this powder.

-Pros:

- Minimizes pores in a noticeable way.
- It's affordable.
- It has a cute package.

-Cons:

- It takes a while to settle which can be bothersome if you're in a hurry.

♥♥♥♥♥ 5/5

Conclusion:

I really like this product, it does it's job and the result is amazing. I don't mind having to wait for it to dry because the result is worth it, would totally buy it again.

¿Have you tried this product?

Garnier Hydra-Adapt Bálsamo nutritivo hidratante 24h Review

Hola preciosidades, 

Hace no mucho decidí comprarme una cremita hidratante para pieles secas o muy secas debido a que algunos de los productos que uso para secarme los granitos, me resecan la cara un montón, y eso que mí piel es grasa pero a veces soy muy insistente queriendo secar esos granos inflamados que salen de vez en cuando... El resultado; Una cara con zonas super secas y ásperas y otras zonas grasas.

Cuando uso crema para pieles mixtas o grasas no me hidrata lo suficiente en esas zonas, así que me puse manos a la obra. Buscaba algo que no tuviera demasiado contenido, ya que yo solo la quería para usar en las zonas secas que más lo necesitaban, acabé encontrando este botecito de Garnier Hydra-Adapt Bálsamo nutritivo hidratante 24h por un precio muy asequible (5,90€) que me llamó la atención.


 El diseño de la cajita, rosa y muy femenino, me gustó a primera vista.


Al principio no tenía ni idea de lo que la textura "bálsamo fundente" era, yo me imaginaba que era crema normal por que en el diseño de la caja sale una especia de crema rosa que...




Como podeís ver no es ni rosa ni crema, ¡ sorpresa !
Es como una especie de cera casí blanca.



 Bueno, esta crema nos promete un +40% de hidratación inmediata tras su aplicación, e hidratación durante 24h, también dice que ayuda a la piel a recuperar su capacidad de hidratación natural en un mes. Esta indicada para pieles secas o muy secas para uso diario.



En esta imagen se puede apreciar como al aplicarla (izquierda), deja la piel hidratada y con un brillo saludable. Lo de que hidrata un 40% inmediatamente en mi caso es verdad, nada más aplicarla se nota alivio e hidratación en la zona seca. Lo de 24h de hidratación dudo que sea verdad, pero no lo se porque yo me lavo la cara tres veces al día ya que hay zonas que las tengo muy grasas. Recordad que  esta cremita la uso en emergencias cuando me he destrozado la cara a base de jabones, dalacín y productos con alcohol, y solo en las zonas afectadas.

El bálsamo está perfumado ligeramente. A mí ni me gusta ni me disgusta, creo que podría llegar a ser un poco agobiante si hace mucho calor, así que si no os gustan los productos perfumados creo que no es para vosotras.

En conclusión, me va bastante bien para las zonas secas cuando tengo alguna urgencia, ya que hidrata instantaneamente y dura bastante. Si teneís la piel seca o muy seca y buscaís algo con un precio asequible, creo que sería una buena opción,  y con un dedo teneís para toda la cara, vamos que dura y dura...

Espero que os haya servido mi review y que la semana haya empezado con buen pie!
Besitos

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 :(


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.


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.


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 :)


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.



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
