Remember my post on Gmarket hauls?

Here are the swatches for the eyeshadows! (:

The eyeshadows are called MCC in VOV Glam Queen Eyes.

904 sweet beige (left)

203 satin beige (right)

closeup! now 203 is on the left, 904 is on the right :P

Here are the swatches! 203 is more of a champagne colour & 904 is more of shimmery white colour. I used both of these to reduce the darkness around my dark circle!

The pigmentation was okay, but since they are beige colours.. i guess it's supposed to be like this.

Both are very shimmery & the eyeshadows are soft.

So since i'm doing swatches on eyeshadows from Korea.

I might as well dig out my other single shadows from Korea.

They are Ludifull Flower Shiny Eyes! I got these from Sasa.

08 Sunshine Orange (right)

Closeup, very shimmery! I used this for a few times, but they still look new. haha!

swatches! both of them are really shimmery & pigmented!

Eyeshadow are soft as well & they last long!

I wore Sunshine orange out & when i came home, my eyelids are still so shimmery! (:

LOVEEE IT! :D

My absolute favorite sunblock!

Introducing my absolute favorite sunblock!

I will be reviewing on Biore UV Perfect Face Milk SPF 50+ PA+++,

as well as Biore Aqua Rich Watery Jelly Water Base SPF 30 PA+++.

So, why use sunblock?

Sunblock can keep us protected from many natural element that can do damage to our skin.

- It prevents sunburn

- Premature Aging

- Decrease the risk of skin cancer

editing & adding in sparkles :P

First up, Biore UV Perfect Face Milk SPF 50+

This is my favourite sunblock (the one in white), i'm currently using my 3rd bottle.

As i have oily/combination skin, my face will be oily within 2 to 3 hours without applying anything.

But after applying this sunblock, i swear my skin doesn't get oily.

It mattifies my skin & the oil control can last up to half a day!

Biore actually sells 4 different kinds of face milk,

from what i know, the pink one has shimmers in it, so it'll make ur skin glow!

& the white one has better oil control ability.

The product just fully absorbed into my skin.

what's more, it can be used as a makeup base!

Though the retail size is small (30mL) but i don't usually apply alot to my face, cause it's VERY spreadable!

I used a peanut skin amount for my whole face.

So it last me for about 6 months, i apply it every morning.

Pros:

- Excellent oil control

- Can use as makeup base

- Waterproof with SPF 50+

- There's this shaker thing inside, u shake & mix the sunblock before using.

- Cheap & Affordable (retail @ watson for $15.50)

- Slightly whiten your skin :D

Cons:

I'm not trying to exaggerate, but i can't find a problem with this product!!

Overall Rating: 5/5!!

Next up, Biore Aqua Rich Watery Jelly water base SPF 30.

I bought this for $18+ at watson, i was attracted by it because of it hydrating power!

Yesyes, i love anything that hydrates my skin! :P

See how hydrating it is?!

It just turns into water when u blend into ur skin.

My skin did glow after applying.

However, I don't think this product is suitable for me.

It gets oily 2 to 3 hours later & it is not waterproof i believe :(

So this product is more suitable for girls with dry skin,

but i won't waste this product! I will apply it on my body hehe~

Pros:

- Very hydrating

- Big tube, can use for a period of time

- SPF 30, which i think it's not bad.

Cons:

- No oil control at all

- Not waterproof

- Gets sticky if u overapply

Overall Rating: 3.5/5

My experience with Epilators

Okay, so here's my experience with the epilator i bought previously.

(no pictures, sorry :P)

I tried around 2 or 3 times already,

I've to say that the first time you epilate, it's scary & a lil painful.

scary because when turn on the switch, the sound is scary.

it's a little painful but bearable & i noticed that when i epilate finer hairs,

it hurts abit more.

If i have to describe the pain,

I would say it's feels like "tiny electric shock" HAHAHA!

But by the time you epilate 2nd or 3rd time,

you will get used to the pain (:

so i'll list the pros & cons of the product.

PROS:

• Hair grows back much slower
• Finer hair after epilating
• Previously i noticed i have big pores on my leg, after epilating it shrink!!
• The epilator i bought has massager, so it kind of "distract" u from the pain xD

CONS:

• not much to complain about, but i noticed that i've ingrown hairs! but i experience it when i shave too. -__-''
• hard to epilate at the 'curves' of ur leg
• It's expensive, but good investment!

Some tips when epilating:

• Exfoliate ur skin before epilating (i read that this can reduce ingrown hair)
• Place epilator 90 degree to your skin
• MUST must moisturise after you epilate! :D

*Edited*

Oh oh oh! to add on, you will feel REALLLLY satisfied when you see all the hair that drops off! :P
