Face Shop Masksheets

Hello!




As I previously mentioned, I picked up some Face Shop masksheets from Walgreens a couple of weeks ago.  So far, I have tried 2-  Aloe Vera and Pearl essence.


I don't have any pics of the aloe one, I accidentally tossed the wrapper before I took a pic, but I do have a pic of the Pearl one so you can see.

The pouch

The mask itself (I look like a murderer while wearing it...)

First, the Aloe mask.

This mask was nicely scented, not too overpowering, and felt really refreshing on my face.  When I was done, my skin felt nice and dewy, not irritated or anything.  Also, not too greasy!  This might even feel nice on if you have a little sunburn on your cheeks.  

The Pearl mask

This one smells really good too (different than the Aloe).  It is meant to give a brighter complexion, I think it is meant to go with their White Tree whitening line (which I have as my winter skincare because it is very moisturizing).  During this climate, that skincare line and this mask is a bit greasy for me.  It is a very good moisturizer, perhaps better for mature, drier skin.

I still have a collagen and a pomegranate one. Reviews to come!

The FaceShop Hits Walgreens!

Hello~~~




As some of you may know, I am an avid user of products by the FaceShop.  They are a Korean cosmetics company whose items I have only been able to find in ONE store near me. Not anymore!




I went into my local Walgreens and lo and behold- a whole stand of FaceShop masks.  2 for $5! So yes, I got one of each (except Lemon, which they were sold out of.  They were almost sold out of ALL of them! Mostly I got the last ones.)


The ones I have are:


Pearl- for whitening
Collagen- for firming
Aloe- for refreshing
Pomegranate- for many benefits


They had a Lemon one too but it was sold out.




Tonight, before bed, I am going to use one, then post about it tomorrow~


Good Night!

BB Cream

Hello!

So, some of you who are into Asian cosmetics (like me) may have heard of something called BB Cream.  If not, keep reading, this is good stuff!

BB cream is short for Blemish Balm.  What is does is minimizes and hides pores, lightens skin blemishes or covers them completely, and evens out the skin tone.  It can be worn alone or under more makeup.  It is important to know that it is NOT a moisturizer, but more like a base foundation you can wear under other makeup.  Usually they are tinted but quickly adjust to your skin color. 

Does it work? I should think so.  I use it and it makes the bigger pores on my nose and chin vanish, and hides most of my little freckles. My camera isn't that great at taking closeups so that I can show you the difference.

Before: see the pores and unevenness.

After: pores are minimized, skin color is more even.

There are MANY brands of BB cream, most of them Korean.  I have two different kinds: The Face Shop Hydro Splash BB Cream and Skin79 Lovely Girl BB cream.

Hydro Splash is more water based, and gives a bit lighter coverage.  Skin79 one is wonderful for covering the pores.  These before and after pics are after using the same one.

Tip! Using BB cream before airbrushing makes airbrush foundation look even BETTER!!!!

Spoiler: My next contest, I will be giving away a full sized bottle of Skin79 Lovely Girl BB Cream!
