REVIEW: Hadanomy Collagen Face Mask

After too much praising for My Beauty Diary mask I have to talk about my favourite mask among all the other ones! It is the Hadanomy face mask. I first heard of this mask in ekiBlog (click on the link to see her review on the entire Hadanomy collection!). Her blog is one my favourite blogs that I follow, even though her review for the mask was so-so I still wanted to try it out because, I am more of a face mask person rather than tons of lotions, essences, serums and etc. 

My first thought on this mask was "Why is it so expensive~ ?" It comes in a pack of 4 and compared to My Beauty Diary face masks that comes in a pack of 10 almost for the same price, at the time I found it as a nonsense. But(!), I was wrong there is a reason for that price difference! 

 First time I used this mask I fell in love with it even though as it is mentioned in ekiBlog the design is kind of difficult to work. The mask has a jelly formula and 250mg of collagen in it. Now, I'm a very young person so I am not suffering from wrinkles or visible small lines but you still need to prevent those! This is definitely my favourite face mask right now and it is very easy for me to get a hold of it because it's sold in my local market! They have it for cheaper on www.sasa.com but if I were to pay shipping costs it would be the same price as my local market sells. I have already finished two packs of this mask and even with all the other ones I own I am planning to go and buy one more pack! 
Every time I use this mask on my face I always feel my skin feel hydrated, soft and very strong if that even makes sense to you. Best way for me to explain that would be that my skins gets plump and literally soft and elastic like a baby skin. I rarely have a breakout, I am glad I have good genes when it comes to skin but, a week after I came to the tropic place I keep mentioning my skin broke out very bad :( So I stopped using anything on my face no makeup, no skin products, nothing! I only washed my face but then one night I put this mask on and believe it or not but it really helped me with the breakouts especially on my forehead. The dry bumps (they were not pimples, acne or anything I still don't know what it was) disappeared in the morning. I don't know if it was because of the mask but I believe it was because my skin felt great in the morning! I highly(!) recommend this mask to anyone that has combination skin. I will be honest though if you have very oily skin I would not recommend this to you as it may leave you on the oily and shiny side a lot more than you already are... 
I shall post a before and after picture in the upcoming blog entries or just as a update on this entry. Look forward to it please! 

Pros:

Moisturizing 

Great smell 

More product left in package

Elastic and strong skin

Bright and glowing skin

Cons:

Design is hard to figure out at first. 

Feels sticky after taking it off

REVIEW: My Beauty Diary Bulgarian White Rose Mask

Hello everyone! 

So I thought I would start reviewing all the masks that I own one by one. Since it would take me a while to finish all of them and then write a review on them. But, in the end I will definitely do a comparison between them all. 

Maybe you have seen it in my other blog entries but My Beauty Diary mask that I own is not something new to me. It was actually my first face mask purchase because I never used face masks before. I bought a pack that was made for Valentine's Day and it had both Bulgarian White Rose and Chocolate face masks. Between the two of them Bulgarian White Rose has been my favourite.

Production and expiration date written on the bottom.

As you can see from the description this mask is ideal for all skin types and as a person who has combination skin that is a great thing for me. It also claims whitening for the skin. I already have very pale skin even though I love the pale look it can sometimes make me look very dull but I this mask gives a great glow to my skin. You can see my skin glowing even when I wear BB Cream on top of it. 

I am not exactly sure why but it maintains the oily and dry places very well. Even though it is a moisturizing mask it doesn't make me oily and moisturizes the dry areas on my face very well and as I mentioned before it gives a great glow to skin. If I have to give an example it would be Sandara Park's skin in Etude House ads. Also the design of the mask is perfect. I usually prefer to leave my face masks longer than it is said on the packages and I never find it hard to walk around the house with this mask on. It sits on the face perfectly and doesn't slide around. The only thing that bothers me is the part that is cut out for the lips though! The upper lip part tends to fall because it stretches(?).

Pros:

Balances the skin moisture

Radiant healthy glow to skin 

Production and expiration date

Leaves skin very soft 

Smell of roses

Cons:

Part cut out for lips

Sticky feeling after taking it off

REVIEW: Etude House Precious Mineral BB Cream All Day Strong #1

Hello! (: 

So today I will be talking about one of my absolute favourite product! Etude House Precious Mineral BB Cream All Day Strong in #1 Sheer Silky Skin. This product comes in #3 different shades which are not very different from each other but they differ with your skin type.

It has SPF 30 which is great to protect your skin from UV lights during the day.

When I got this product I didn't know that #1 was for oily skin type but I got it because it was the lightest shade (smart right? -_-). I have combination skin where only my nose area gets oily, my forehead are is very and the rest is just normal with a little sensitivity. But it worked great for my skin type! Also, I usually have trouble finding products for my skin colour because I'm very pale with both pink and olive undertones, if that makes any sense at all. But every product I use either looks very beige or very pink on me :( This BB cream matches perfectly!!

Etude House is a Korean brand and this BB creams advertisements were made with Sandara Park, who I love very much and I think she is beautiful! This product has a really nice, pleasant smell which is not very heavy... I can compare it to Chanel foundations actually because I find the smell very close to VitaLumiere which once I used. Also this product did not cause me to breakout or anything like that and usually my skin is not that great with products due to sensitivity.

It comes with a pump so all you have to do is to pump out the product out of the tube. Which is very sterile. 

I am a very lucky girl when it comes to skin because I don't have any blemishes or scars that I have to cover up aside from a little redness on my cheeks which happens because I blush easily. So this product is more of a light to medium coverage. If anyone out there with blemishes or acne scars wants to use it you will HAVE to use a concealer on top of it. With this BB cream I find it okay not to put powder on top if I want to have a dewy finish that day but at times I use translucent powder if I want more of a matte finish. Even so my skin looks very healthy still.

It looks very light on my hand but it matches perfectly with my face!

All in all, words can not describe how much I love this product and soon I will run out of it! It seems that PinkyParadise doesn't carry this anymore and I couldn't find it on any website that I can trust purchasing from.

Pros:

packaging (tube with pump)

great for combination skin types

pleasant smell

healthy, dewy finish

fair pricing
a little goes a long way!

Cons:

hard to find now (but there is a new range)

if you need heavy coverage it's not for you!
it's hard to get the amount you want with pump...
