[Review] Skinfood - Argan Oil Silk Hair Nourishing Cream

November 09, 2014

Everyone hates dry and frizzy hair, so a hair mask/hair treatment is a must! But what to do when its a hassle to condition your hair before you go out? Usually, before my school in the morning i just shampoo my hair, and in case it get frizzy after it dry i would apply my argan oil nourishing cream, just a leave on hair cream, so much easier right :P

I've been looking for the Argan oil silk hair essence instead actually, but because i am in quite a rush that day, i didnt manage to ask the beauty consultant did they discontinue it or its just out of stock, but since i tried the tester there on this nourishing cream and it work pretty similar to the hair essence that i am looking for, so i decided to grab this :)

Skinfood has remove some of their hair care range , and came in with this new range

The consistency of this is like a mild lotion with a light fragrance, that doesnt leave my hand feeling sticky.

More about my thoughts :

Honestly, i like this nourishing cream, i think overall its pretty decent, and the scent smell great too! i am so hook up by this smell , its the same as the argan oil essence! but i cant buy another bottle of it :( its okay this work well too! :) It really make my hair look more shiny and smooth!

Usually, i apply this when my hair is half dry, focusing more on the end of my hair because it is more prone to dryness T,T i will blow dry my hair again completely and apply it once again.

Pros / What i like about this product :

Amazing result ( the softness in my hair , and it doesnt tangle)
Its not sticky or doesnt make your hair oily
The fragrance!
Its pretty lightweight as a hair cream

Cons / What i dislike? :

i guess if i were to compare it with the argan oil hair essence, the hair essence is much more moisturizing

Tips?

Always remember to do a daily maintenance for your hair and comb it regularly. showering with cold water help prevent dry hair :)

Thank you guys for reading this review, i hope it would help in your purchase. If there is hair essence, i would definitely go for it, but the nourishing cream isnt a bad buy as well, it still does its job well ^^

[Review] Aritaum - Honey Melting Tint

October 07, 2014

Honey melting tint! What is your first impression of this when you first hear it? Honey? Melting? Hahaha okay i am weird! But before trying this product the first impression i have for it... they are really moisturizing and its really creamy that it literally melt on your lips. Like how it is shown on advertisment haha!

These are the 10 shades of colors! No. 2 to No. 9 are my favourite

Okay.. i've read reviews about this product on the internet here and there. Seeing so many bloggers and youtuber reviewing about Honey melting tint its actually quite popular! So yes! this time round my trip to Korea, i first went to Aritaum before any other korean cosmetic stores :P i head over to their cosmetic section to look for the lip products immediately :P , at that time i've been eyeing the styling pudding tints, world glam tints and honey melting tints! i grabbed coral candy style pudding tint and Seoul World Glam Tints! But sadly, the color of honey melting tint i want at this Myeongdong Aritaum store is out of stock :( so i didnt get to buy it at first.

There was a day i went to Gangnam area and i saw this BIG Aritaum shop at the Station!! so i went to buy my Honey melting tint which i didn't get to buy it earlier, and i count myself lucky that they are having a 1+1 sales! :D before discount, it cost 8000won per honey melting tint, so i am getting 1 for 4000won now :) good grab!

I've gotten myself Strawberry Chips and Raspberry Cake! :)

i am sorry the swatch for raspberry cake didn't turn out clear ><

this smell like rose :)

This is the swatch of Strawberry chip. :) it look like a really hot pink but its not! i thought it would be hot pink after i purchase this and i got a little worry but luckily it has a beautiful pink shade of color :) It smell fruity! I am in love with this scent!

So now let us get into this product!

Pros/What i like :

Long-lasting. That night when i took my flight back from Seoul to home ,the color last throughout the flight
Creamy/ Moistursing! Unlike many kind of lipstick, the moment i apply them they will stick to my chapped lips :( showing the ugly part of dry area around my lips, but this tint cover it well.
The packaging! amazingly it look pretty normal right? but i just like how the cap look like the color of the tints it is.

Cons/What i dislike :

Yes, it stays for long hours, but after sometimes the glossiness on your lips fade off (if you were someone who hardly re-apply your lipstick) it does show your chappy lips after long hours :( but well i guess what you can do it is just removing the lip tint and re-apply after your meal :)
it stain to my water bottle! obviously this is not a kiss-able lip tint.

That's pretty much for the pros and cons, as for beauty tips!

- Though this is just like a lipstick but you can create a gradient look with it as well. Apply some lip concealer or left over foundation/BB cream from your sponge over your lips to cover your original lip color. Apply honey melting tint at the center inner part of your lips :)

Thats all for my sharing , thank you for reading :)

[Review] Innisfree - Camellia Magic Styling Shampoo & Rinse

September 15, 2014

I am very particular about my shampoo and conditioner, like does it make my hair fall? How does it smell like? Will it make my hair smooth?

I've also tried many different kind of shampoo, from drugstore(Essential, Herbal Essence)-->Skinfood-->The face shop-->Etude house(pretty good but usually out of stock)-->INNISFREE! But most of them don't work on me :( Because I dyed and rebond my hair so it is so damage :(

Until the day I found Camellia magic styling shampoo & Rinse, i decided to just stick with this shampoo! I've even gotten myself a second bottle of shampoo and rinse!!

The package for them is a milk color bottle/tube and picture of camellia flower. With SNSD Yoona as she is Innisfree ambassador :)

Shampoo :

"Formulated with keratin derived peptide which is the key structural component of hair to impart hair transforming functions. this product protects your hair and scalp with Jeju camellia oil and green complex as it helps style straight hair"

300ml

The shampoo is transparent white color. Shampoo is quite thick so i usually add some water to dilute it when i shower my hair :)

Rinse(Conditioner):

Conditioner is white creamy texture. I love how smooth this make my hair feel!

(Please pardon me taking a picture of the condition in a small container, i am packing for my oversea trip and sharing luggage with my sister, trying my best to save space T.T okay..TMI!)

What i think about these product?

The shampoo smell so nice! i cant say this smell like camellia because i have never smell a camellia before :) but i just cant stop smelling my hair after shower XD
I believe most of the shampoo out there are 2 in 1, which consist of conditioner in the shampoo. However i don't think there is any in this shampoo or maybe very little? I don't feel that my hair is smooth if i were to bathe with shampoo only which i think is a good thing ^^ Shampoo are meant to wash our scalp thoroughly and if we were to put conditioner on our scalp will cause hair fall or even clogging of pores maybe?
The conditioner is the best! DAEBAK! I am very particular about what kind of conditioner i am using and how much it help me. i remember there was a time i purchase a conditioner from the face shop and its not even doing its job :( This innisfree conditioner works like a treatment to me!
I do not have any hair fall or itching
My hair is quite frizzy and after using them its so smooth, i don't have to use a straightener to straighten my hair if i am lazy :P but if i were to straighten it, the results is good

Pros:

Smell really nice!
Make my hair smooth
No hair fall or itching

Cons:

i have to sweep my bathroom floor because it make my bathroom slippery(conditioner)

[Review] Innisfree - Apple Juicy Emulsion (lip and eye remover)

September 14, 2014

Firstly, i would like to apologise for the slight hiatus because i have been busy preparing stuff for this coming friday seoul trip! >< But guys, i promise when i am back from Seoul i will flood with lots and lots of reviews! look forward to them alright? ;)

About a week ago , i step into innisfree having the thought of getting myself a water make up remover. You guys know, my current make up remover have to pump and wipe quite a number of times to make sure i cleanse my face properly :( you can read on the review about etude house milky you cleanser here :)

But... i ended up getting Apply Juicy Emulsion Lip and Eye Remover as i've mention in my previous post, i have rather sensitive eyes T.T i cant use make up remover that will sting my eyes when wiping off my eye make up.

The packaging is a fresh color looking green , just like green apple!

Benefits of Apple

Apple have plenty of Vitamin C, prevent damage on skin from free radicals
It contains anti-oxidants which help in cell re-building and cell rejuvenation.
Maintaining healthy and glowing skin
Anti-Aging and smooth skin

Products Description : Enrich in apple extra that provide softness and healthy radiance to skin. Waterproof make up remover.

It come with a pump dispenser, i lost the white small plastic cap :( it pump out quite a bit so maybe 2 pump of this on a cotton will be enough

Some water-proof eyeliner from Holika Holika :)

So now let us try removing this water-proof eyeliner , pump 2 times and prepare a facial cotton! It smell just like apple!

Remove and wipe it off a few times, clean! I love this remover! so easy to remove water-proof eyeliner.

Pros:

This is not very oily yet it can remove clearly my water-proof make up, it leave your skin smooth after removing your make up and not some oily/sticky feeling
I love the smell! so refreshing, just like green apple :P
The price is reasonable and affordable.

Cons? No cons!

I bought mine from innisfree singapore (Takashimaya, Bugis, Plaza Singapura are some outlet at town area) for people who want to purchase it online you may try ibuybeauti or KoreaDepart or Qoo10 :)

Beauty Tips

Always remember do not wipe your face/eyes hard with cotton, its painful and it cause wrinkles!
Pump the make up remover on a facial cotton, leave it for 10s-15s on your eyes and slowly wipe it off. this allow the make up remover to dissolve the make up residue

Will i re-purchase?

YES! Definitely! My first remover for eyes & lip is a tissue remover from Etude house, however the sticker seal came off easily and it cause most of my remaining tissue left in the package to dry off :( but that is also when i start loving eye & lip make up remover, though i am lazy :P but you know, i have sensitive eyes so.. :( Anyway, this is a good product! i will just stick with this :)
