Etude House Vivid Pop No.8

안녕하세요! 

Today’s post is Etude House’s Vivid Pop Stick in #8. I recently got this product but I already love it. 

The product comes sealed in plastic wrap so make sure to check that if you purchase one. It has the production date written at the end of the stick. The packaging is a retractable kind. So you can twist the product out basically.

The colour and texture is perfect in the bullet. It feels creamy and applies smoothly.

It is darkest shade that is in this series and it is truly pigmented. On the photo above please check the true colour that I put on the right corner of the photo. This colour is the type that will look different in different kind of lightings. In flash photography it looks a bit dark red-pink.

This is Etude House’s promotional photo for this product. I tried doing the gradation on my lips with this product but I applied too much because I didn’t think that it was that pigmented. So if you are going for gradation look make sure to apply just a little bit and blend out and then apply a bit more. 

In the promotional photo the colour looks very matte but when I applied it on my lips it looked more creamy rather than matte. However if you want the matte look apply a little bit of translucent powder or red pigment on top of it and you will achieve the same exact colour you see in the promotional photo. I actually recommend setting with powder for a long lasting colour. 

I don’t have any complaints about this product. If I want it darker I can apply more layers if I want it a bit lighter I can apply a little product and be happy. It truly is a vivid and popping colour. However I recommend exfoliating the lips prior to application of this colour because if your lips are dry and chapped this it won’t look as nice but this is definitely not a drying lip product so girls with dry lips can use it too and it won’t feel dry on the lips.

The Face Shop Aqua Drop Pack~ 더페이스샵 아쿠아 드롭 슬리핑 팩 후기/리뷰

Hello everyone! 

As promised I started writing reviews for most of the products I have showed in previous haul posts. 

Todays item is The Face Shop Aqua Drop Pack sleeping mask.

Before I received a sample of this product I didn’t know that such thing as sleeping mask existed. Last year when I bought a bunch of stuff in The Face Shop store they were kind enough to give me a bunch of samples and she gave me quite a lot of this sleeping mask because I was suffering from dry skin at the time. This sleeping mask is especially for moisturizing and baby like soft skin. I used my samples and fell in love with this product so I went to buy the full size of the product which comes in a huge tube which I don’t think I will run out of in a while.

The consistency of this products is very gel and water like. At least that’s what it feels like to me. It has a extremely pleasant smell which is great to fall asleep to. It is very fresh and clean like smell and not overwhelming at all.

Because it has quite a runny consistency to it, it is very easy to blend and spread on to skin and the amount you see on my hand would be enough for the entire face.

When you spread it on to skin it looks very shiny and dewy and feels just a little bit sticky but since it is a sleeping mask I do not mind the stickiness. Also that stickiness is good to lock up the moisture into your skin and have the skin get all the benefits from the product. It never really completely dries on the skin so you may have some rub on to your pillow cover so keep that in mind and don’t complain because it is a sleeping mask! 

In the morning when you wake up you seriously do have a very soft and supple baby like skin. Your skin feels elastic and soft and very moisturized. Now the only con of this product is that I do not recommend it to people with very oily skin because all the moisture content in the mask might make you more oily and shiny (I don’t mean good shiny but oily shiny) but people with combination skin and dry skin should definitely try this. 

You definitely see the change in skins texture even after one use and in long term use it makes the skin feel great. I personally use it once a week and it makes my skin feel great and smooth. 

I haven’t seen it on online shops but I have seen this product in all of The Face Shop stores I’ve been to. So if you have a store nearby you can get your hands on this product easily.

TonyMoly Appletox Smooth Massage Peeling Cream~ 토니모리 에플톡스 스무드 마사지 필링 크림 리뷰

Hello! 

So lately I’m trying to write a post more frequently because honestly when I do that I get more followers and likes suddenly ._. but it’s so hard to write about all these products because I get confused and hyper which causes me to write a lot of unnecessary things in my posts! 

Well now that my rant is over I would like to actually talk about today’s subject. It is TonyMoly Appletox Smooth Massage Peeling Cream. If you don’t know what it is, basically it is a facial exfoliant without the beads and scrubbing materials inside and all you have to do is massage it into your skin and then wash it off.

This product comes in a extremely cute packaging which is a shape of green apple. Which is why I purchased this product... I can’t help myself when I see cute packaging.

For a long time now, about 3 years, I’ve been using Laura Mercier Face Polish as a exfoliator but then I saw the Cure gel and wanted to purchase that, I didn’t. Instead, I bought this Appletox peeling cream from TonyMoly.

The apple has a seal on it and when you twist the cap off there is another should i call it cap(?) that has TonyMoly printed on it. When you remove that you’ll reach the cream! The production and expiration date is printed on the bottom of the apple so make sure to check that if you ever purchase one.

Just as the name suggests the consistency of it is creamy. It has a very pleasant smell of green apples. I love the smell of green apples but if you don’t like then I don’t recommend this product to you because you can still smell the green apples after washing it off. It doesn’t stay for too long but still if you don’t like that smell don’t get this product. 

Well this product doesn’t come in a box or anything of that sort and it doesn’t have any directions on it but you can find them online. Also I wish it came with a small cosmetic spatula that why your pot would stay clean. So when I first used it I was kind of confused because I thought I just need to keep massaging and rubbing my skin. What you have to do is massage the product into your skin for about 30 seconds to 1 minute.

Then leave it on your face for 30 seconds. In the photo above I put a lot on my hand and couldn’t blend it more that’s why it looks weird. Also with this a little goes a long way! When you start massaging it into your skin the product gets softer so just a little is enough for your entire your face. What you see on my hand is enough for my entire face!

After waiting for 30 seconds you start massaging your face again and you will see little white things forming. Well what you see is your dead skin cells. After that you need to wash your face with lukewarm water and continue with your regular skincare routine. 

Now onto what I actually think about this product. I like it. Do I love it? I’m not sure! I still want to try Cute Aqua Gel! I really like this product though. After washing it off it leaves my skin very soft and smooth. A lot softer than my Laura Mercier exfoliator! However it does give me a little a redness but I already expected that because I have very sensitive skin and that happens with all the other exfoliator I have used before but this is a lot more gentle than other exfoliator because it doesn’t have any hard beads or sugary products in it. 

All in all, I like this product. I don’t love it yet because my mind is on the best selling Cure Aqua Gel. I recommend this to girls with sensitive skin because it is a lot more gentler than the other exfoliators. It leaves the skin soft and smooth. It is not a miracle product but it does what it says it will! I will definitely update you on whether I love or just like this product after I get my hands on Cure Aqua Gel.

The Face Shop Arsainte Ideal Essence~ 더페이스샵 아르쌩뜨 에코-테라피 아이디얼 에센스 리뷰

Hello! Today’s post is about a essence which you may have seen in my previous hauls! I bought this when my skin was getting very dry and needed a moisture boost. 

It is The Face Shop Arsainte Eco-Therapy Ideal Essence. This line is known to be the best seller from this brand especially their essence. This line is for dry skin which needs extreme moisture.

The essence doesn’t have any colour and it is a clear water like formula. It has a very subtle fresh smell to it. It includes bamboo extract for moisture and locking the moisture into the skin.

When you are spreading it out on your skin it feels like water. It has a very soft gel like texture but it is definitely not thick. The essence does have a smell to it but it is not overwhelming and it is a very fresh and clean smell. Now the question is “does it really moisturize skin extremely?”. It does. 

This essence makes your skin extremely soft and bouncy and elastic feeling like a baby skin. However even though I have oily skin on my nose it does not get oily at all and it actually feels great. I put it on before my moisturizer and after my toner and it feels great. 

I’m sure what I mainly use this essence for is very different than everyone else but I mix it with my Aqua Tinted BB cream!!! It looks amazing and it feels amazing on my face! I believe due to the bamboo extract it contains, it feels refreshing and cooling on the skin. 

I recommend this essence for everyone with dry skin who needs a moisture boost. It is really great to use under your moisturizer and definitely under your makeup or even in your makeup like I do. When I’m done with this bottle I’m planning to repurchase it again especially for the upcoming winter season for when my skin gets dry. 

Thank you for reading my post! I hope you enjoyed it and will like my post. Also, don’t forget to follow my blog for more reviews and upcoming posts.
