Product Review: Mischka Just Kissed Lip & Cheek Stain

Sunday, January 15, 2017

     Before I learned how to use blush powders and creams on my cheeks, lip & cheek tints are my best friend. I was in college back then when a Thai brand of makeup sells cheap but effective products and one of them was my favorite cheek tint. I will not name it and I presume that if you're a cheek tint gal, you have tried it too.

     Anyhoo, late last year I decided to rekindle my love for lip & cheek tints when I saw photos of Korean stars on my Facebook feed. Most of them are sporting the no makeup look with only flushed cheeks, bitten lips, and natural looking brows. I want to try that look and good thing Mischka Derma Secrets now rebranded to Mischka Nature Essentials sent me two shades of their Just Kissed Lip & Cheek Stain. Will this product be a mainstay in my makeup essentials? Find out my thoughts below :)

Product Review: Mamonde Rose Water Toner

Thursday, January 05, 2017

     Hello dearies! I want to share with you my thoughts on my current fave toner- Mamonde Rose Toner that I bought last year from Althea Korea. At first I was hesitant to try the product because of the price and thinking that it will just go to waste if my skin will react negatively to it. On the other hand, there's a whispering voice telling me to try it because it's rose water- and skin care products with rose extracts are known to give a moisturizing and calming effect on the skin.

     I made a research online and it looks like that only a few made a review of this product. After finishing a bottle, I'm proud to say that I experienced little to no breakouts. This is also the mildest toner that I've tried to date. So without further ado, here's my thoughts on Mamonde Rose Toner.

     With science and advancement of technology, having a beautiful face and body is within reach. There are so many dermatology clinics offering different techniques for that so-called 'I woke up like this' beauty. If my memory serves me right, the word dermatology before equates to surgery. One if going under the knife. But now, treatments are non-invasive meaning no downtime and needle are required.

     The star of face and beauty aesthetics today is laser treatment. And when you say laser treatment, it's a kind of treatment that uses laser equipment to treat minor and major areas of the face and body. There are different laser treatments being offered nowadays and did you know that there is a big difference aside from the price? Well, I'll share a brief of that below. But first, let me introduce to you CUTERA Laser Treatment. A piece of brief information about this laser, the types of machine, and my personal experience below :)

Product Review: Pink Sugar Sugar Tint (Lip & Cheek Tint)

Wednesday, October 05, 2016

     Hello dearies! Sharing with you a quick review of Pink Sugar Sugar Tint (Lip & Cheek) today. These babies were sent to me by Pink Sugar Cosmetics months ago but I wasn't able to try it immediately because I still have other lipsticks to swatch but dang, after trying those nude shades in the collection, I'm hooked! If you are a self-confessed lipstick lover, I'm sure that you already have a tube or more of this inside your lipstick arsenal. I bet that these sugar tints will be a mainstay in your stash once you've tried a shade or two. I always get compliments when I'm sporting their nudes.

     If you dream of having a Kylie lipstick, maybe you should try this first because aside from the price, these are highly-pigmented and you'll receive more bang for your buck! I'm not good at description but looking at the photos and swatches below, I can say that some shades will pass as dupes to Kylies. So without further ado, my thoughts on Pink Sugar Sugar Tints. Read more below :)

     Did you know that as early as 25, one can start their anti-aging skin care regimen? I just discovered this when I'm already 30 years old. I'm not sure if I'm already late because I just incorporated those anti-aging moisturizers and eye creams two years ago in my skin care routine. Since we live in a tropical climate, we are often expose to sun when we go outside the house. Sun exposure can lead to skin damage and premature aging. Visible signs include age spots, hyperpigmentation, fine lines, and wrinkles. The damage is usually irreversible or may require expensive medical treatments to correct.

     Now, you can combat sun damage and bring back the youthful glow of your skin with the fast-acting solution from Helix-D. A scientific breakthrough in skincare, Helix-D surpasses all current anti-aging products in the market, combining potent ingredients and patented technologies to provide amazing results once thought impossible from an over-the-counter product.

     We cannot hide from the damaging rays of the sun but we can combat those pesky effects of damaging sun rays. Aside from using sunblock and sunscreen, using umbrella, wearing sunglasses, caps, bonnets, and other things that will protect our skin from UVA/UVB rays will do. Most importantly, using skin care products that is suitable for reversing the signs of aging is highly recommended. I'll try this product soonest and update you if it's a yay or a nay.

     I hope this products works for me. With the hefty price tag, I have high hopes with Helix-D because most of the effective eye serums in the market today are in this price range.

Do you use eye creams and eye serum?

Good Times!~
