[REVIEW] The Face Shop Soft Cream Blusher

It's been a long time.. Now I finally back to blog world. YAY!
For the last 6 months, I back to Australia from Korea.
And as usual, every single day I really have been missing my country....
(Maybe I am missing reasonable price of cosmetics! Here..everything is extremely expensive and I keep comparing the price to Korea..)

Anyway, today, I brought The Face Shop Soft Cream Blusher
It just launched in Korea as well.. so I guess not many people reviewed about this products :D 
 
 
It comes with 2 different colours.
I am currently using Tonymoly blusher as my daily make-up , and it is like a compressed powder type. So it requires a brush every morning...
So I was really excited when I saw this cream type of blushers!

[REVIEW] Aritaum eye-shadow "MONO EYES"

 ** My first review in KOREA **
 
I had really awesome 3 months in Korea...feel like it's a dream.
I haven't been keeping up with my blog well these days but after my 3 months of dream, I will be catching up everything!
Anyway, this country is really the "paradise of cosmetics". ( I love it >-<)
Every street has at least 2-3 cosmetic retail stores and people have a variety of chocies when it comes to purchasing cosmetics.
I spent TOO MUCH MONEY on cosmetics here...
 but this makes me feel like I'm alive! haha
 
So I will be reviewing "Aritaum Mono eyes " today for you all.
Not sure you have heard about this brand, Aritatum, but it is actually reall really popular in Korea and they are under Amore Pacific line.
So basically they are selling most of Amore Pacific line cometics except Innisfree, Etude house and Sulwhasoo.
 
 
 Aritaum also has their own cosmetics and this "Mono-eyes" are their eye shadow.
Today I will review these 3 different colours; Love mode - Mature burgundy - Cosy Breeze
 (from the left )
( I normally use skin tone of eye shadow so people rarely catch I use eye-shadow. )

[REVIEW] Bio-Oil

This review is my FIRST western cosmetic brand review of my blog... :)
Technically, this brand "bio-oil" is from South Africa..but obviously it is not from Asia..so I will just say this is western brand!!
To be honest, I've never heard about this brand before until I went to Price-line. (which is the biggest drug shop in Australia)
And I saw heaps of people were just VACUUMING this bio-oil into their basket and I was really curious what that is...
I looked up this brand in "NAVER" which is more well-known as a Korean google, and it said one of Korean celebrities used this bio-oil and thanks to her, this bio-oil brand became really popular. So I decided to join with those customers and bought 10 small size and 1 large size. 
And....Here we go!
 
This is the beautiful(?) collection of bio-oil after purchasing from Price-line.
 

Left side is large size (125ml) and right side is small size (60ml).
This "bio-oil" is mainly for scars, stretch marks, uneven skin tone, ageing skin and dehydrated skin.
I used this for fixing my uneven skin tone and wrinkles around neck.

[REVIEW] The Face Shop Chia Seed Eye Spot Essence !!



Today's QUICK and SIMPLE review :D
"The Face Shop Chia Seed Water Eye Spot Essence"


So..
Here's the quick and simple review about water eye spot essence.
Since I am currently living in Australia... I had to ask my DAD to buy and send this to Aus... and Thanks to my dad.. This post could have done!

Australia do have "The Face Shop" in the CBD..near QVB and world square
( I am really sure Aussie people will know where I am talking about :D ).
And I did check those retail stores because I was seriously considering to buy this product in here, but this eye spot essence was EXTREMELY PRICEY.
( In Australia, eye spot essence was around $44 AUD but in Korea, my dad paid only $15 )

[REVIEW] The Face Shop AQUA UV CC Cream ★

As everyone knows, CC Cream has been in the market almost for 1 year.....
But since I was too stubborn, I kept forcing myself to use BB Cream instead of CC Cream.
Also, I was bit scared of using different cosmetics which I never used before...
I guess most of girls are like me especially if they have sensitive skin :(

B.U.T.. I cannot be retarded of the cosmetic trend...lol
Let's go with the CC Cream flow!!
(maybe it's already too late? lol )





My first review of CC Cream is...
The Face Shop AQUA UV Color Control Cream.. 
which is simply called "CC Cream in The Face Shop" 


Inside of CC Cream.
It comes with 1 puff and mirror!


 
Push the button on the bottom of case
(Make sure you need to get rid of white sticker before you use..)

Now... CC Cream is coming out from the tiny hole!
Texture was too stiff... CC Cream could not be spreaded out properly onto my face.
(I tried to use fingers instead of using puff and figner works better for me)


This is after applying onto my hand...
I used #1 Radiant Beige for my skin.

** TIP **
The Face Shop AQUA CC Cream has cooling effect!
Once you spread it onto your face, your skin temperature will be decreaed around 2 degrees..So it's good for SUMMER.


Other side of Puff
To be honest, this puff is the WORST PUFF EVER in my life...
It absorbs most of cream and doesnt really spread cream well onto my face...
I feel like I am wasting most of my precious CC cream because this puff is totally eating !!!
As you can see, this puff has its unique shape to fit into the cc cream case,
 so i could not change to other puff.. That's why I started using my fingers... and realised using fingers is way better than using puff..!
I guess this is their strategy.. make people use their product faster and buy again...! :(


♥♥overall my thoughts♥♥

WHAT I LIKE
-T-zone oil control
- Good for covering up rashes

WHAT I DISLIKE
-No waterproof... (Staff said this is a waterproof product.. but it totally went away after swimming..so..I guess I got scammed haha)
-Puff.. PUFF !!! Easy to waste cream because puff absorbs most of CC cream

[REVIEW] Innisfree Grean Tea Line with green complex


Innisfree's one of the MUST HAVE ITEMS...
Green tea line :)
 ..and finally I got this !!!

So..Today, I will post about ♡Green Tea Pure Deluxe Kit ♡
which is called Gem's Innisfree Green Tea Whole Line Summary :D


      
This delux kit comes with 5 different products...
1. Green Tea Seed Serum (1ml x 6ea)
2. Green Tea Pure Skin (15ml x 1ea)
3. Green Tea Pure Lition (15ml x 1ea)
4. Green Tea Pure Sleeping Pack (10ml x 1ea)


On the box, they said Innisfree Green Tea Pure Line use 100% of green tea water instead of normal water when they are making..and also the green tea farm where they got ingredients never used
 a chemical fertilizer for 3 years.






 And..these are the whole lines of beautiful Innisfree Green tea line !!
 (Green tea serum came with 6 different capsule pack..but I already used 4 before posting this review.. It was SOOO good so I couldn't help it *__*)

♬ Product Maps♬
Serum →Skin→Lotion→Cream(Sleeping Pack)

Green Tea Seed serum is bit watery...which is good when you spread on your face...
This sample 1ml was bit much for 1 usage but not enough for using second time..so I put rest of things on my neck...and seems like my neck wrinkles have faded out in 2 days!!


 
This is how Green Tea Toner and Lotion look like..
Toner is not watery and bit sticky..so easy to spread on your face!
Lotion is clearly thicker than Toner...
But...to be honest, I would not recommend you to get Toner and Lotion both..
(espeacially if you have oily skin type!)
Toner is already thick enough

Green Tea Pure Cream has tiny bids..but when you spread onto your face, you cannot really feel these bids...
It looks bit sticky..but once you apply, sticky feeling will be gone!



As it says on the name... Green Tea Pure Sleeping Pack is the last step of basic skin care..and also you need to used this before sleep :)
Sleeping pack also has some bids inside and bids are little bit bigger than pure cream.
Roll these bids onto your face until it melts away and tap your face using fingers.


♥♥overall my thoughts♥♥

WHAT I LIKE
-good scent
-good for moisturising
-Organic Ingredients which is really important to me!

WHAT I DISLIKE
-um.... it's my personal opinion..but for me, Lotion is unnecessary product.
