Etude House Peach Water Gloss #3 Plum Water Review

A yummy peach lipgloss from Etude House! (:

I was amazed by the peachy scent & cute packaging!

Available in 5 shades, i'm using #3 Plum Water

" -Moisturizing gloss that supplies color and volume to lips with a moist, smooth sensation.

-Jelly Polymer's smooth texture supplies moisture and color coating to lips without hassle.

-Supplies glossy, wet look to lips with specially formulated hydro coating.

-Heart-shaped applicator adds glossy volume to lips. "

Closeup on heart-shaped applicator

Though it looks similar to hotpink, but it's sheer when applied.

Pic 1: Bare Lips

Pic 2: 1 coat of gloss

Pic 3: 2 coats of gloss

As you can see, the gloss is really sheer. It's more towards nude/babypink when applied.

What i like about this gloss is that it's non-sticky & the yummy peachy scent just travel to your mouth.

Pros:

- Yummy Peachy Scent

- Cute Packaging

- Easy to apply with the heart- shaped applicator

- Pretty Color

- Non-sticky & Moisturizing

Cons:

- Not very long-lasting & color disappears after eating.

- Sheer, need 2 coats or more.

Overall Rating:I would rate this a 4/5. Though it's not very long-lasting, but i think the scent & color make up for it. It's good for girls who likes their lip colors to be nude/soft pink.

My current skincare routine, Hada Labo! (:

My current skincare routine! Hada Labo SHA range! (:

I prefer my skincare to be more hydrating & moisturizing rather than having whitening effect.

Due to my oily/combination skin, it's hard for me to find a perfect range.

Then, i heard everyone raving about Hada Labo's hydrating lotion.

I tried it & i'm in love with it.

Thus, i bought their essence & moisturizer too!

This photo was taken 6 months ago where i bought their essence, moisturizer & refill for the hydrating lotion.

Hada Labo lotion is a Japanese skin care product that's insanely popular due to its amazing hydrating and anti-aging properties. It's said that one bottle of Hada Labo lotion sells every 4 seconds in Japan!

Hada Labo Super Hyaluronic Acid range contains SHA which promises that "one drop locks up an ocean". SHA helps to replenish and lock in moisture to visibly improve skin texture and prevent dryness so skin stays soft, hydrated and elastic. It's free of fragrances, mineral oil, alcohol and colorants. It is also skin pH balanced and causes low skin irritation.

Tadah! My 3 steps routine~

Left: Hada Labo SHA Hydrating Lotion

Middle: Hada Labo SHA Moist Essence EX

Right: Hada Labo SHA Cream

Step 1: Hada Labo SHA lotion (acts as toner)

" This toner contains SHA and HA for re-hydrating softening and refreshing results. With advanced Nano technology the intensive hydrating ingredients contained in this toner is able to penetrate into the skin for non-greasy yet effective moisturizing result. It can also prevent the evaporation of skin's natural moisture so that your skin can be well hydrated. "

The lotion is runny, almost like water. It's very spreadable so u don't have to use much on your face & it's very easily absorbed by the skin. I would rate it a 5/5, it's so hydrating that you can just feel it!

Step 2: Hada Labo SHA Moist Essence EX

" This intensive hydrating essence is designed for all skin types. It is able to tighten and refine large pores caused by aging and a change of environment. Your skin will look firmer, younger and well hydrated. Blends with intensive SHA and HA for re-hydrating and softening results. With advanced nano technology, the intensive hydrating ingredients contained in this product is able to penetrate into the skin for a non-greasy result. "

Basically, the essence is much more thicker than the lotion. So you have to spend more effort in patting your skin to let it fully absorbed before carrying on to the next step. Once absorbed, it's not sticky or greasy! I will rate this a 4/5, as it is not so easy to be absorbed by the skin.

Step 3: Hada Labo SHA Cream

" Highly moisturizing facial cream with super Hyaluronic Acid. Moisturized skin for a long time. Non-greasy formula. Weak acidic. For sensitive skin. Fragrance free, Colorant free, mineral oil free, and Alcohol (ethanol) free. "

To be honest, I don't like their cream. From the photos, you may feel that the cream is gel-like but actually it's cream-like. So it's not suitable for oily skin. Specially after all the layering, this cream left me with a greasy & sticky skin. It's hard to be absorbed too. So, it doesn't do what it claims. I would rate this a 2.5/5, this product would be good for people with dry skin.

A random picture "Runaway Rilakkumma" and me after my 3 steps routine :P

Boing~ Boing~!

To prove that i'm a fan of Hada Labo, my second bottle of hydrating lotion! :DD

I've just finished my essence, i'm currently looking for new range to try out! Any recommendations? (:

Freshkon Alluring Eyes review

Yeahhhh! My final paper is over!

I'm waiting for my graduation cert right now :P

Today i'm gonna do a review on Freshkon Alluring Eyes Lenses!

I got these lens because i initially thought my myopia got worst.

So i ordered a pair with higher degree than the ones i'm currently wearing.

But end up it's not my myopia getting worst, but because of my previous eye infection.

That's why i seeing blur images.. but i'm all better now! :D

Water Content: 55%

Diameter: 14.2mm

Available in 4 shades, i picked Winsome Brown! (:

Before (My glaring eye hahaha!)

After :D Slight brown colour, it does enlarge my eyes a little bit.

I have to say that it is very comfy,

the material of the lens are soft & thin.

At the same time, it's easy to be torn..

But personally i don't really like the colour (even though my friend like it alot),

i prefer lens with larger diameter & darker..

Pros:

-Very Comfy

- Soft Material

- Natural Looking

- Good for people who are looking for lens with small diameter which slightly enlarges the eyes and at the same time, natural looking.

Cons:

- Personally, i think the price is rather steep. It retails for about $30 to $35 per month? But i got these for $25.

-Lens easily torn (what my friend said)
