REVIEW : Missha Melting Sugar Lip Scrub

Hoola ~

Today i want to review Missha's sugar lip scrub. I bought this from Zatura when they held a bazaar in Pluit few months ago. They said this product was best seller and they sold it for IDR. 50.000,- so why not , my lip is suffering now because i put too much 'product' on it.



From the website :
Use the Melting Sugar Lip Scrub for a complete lip care.
The Conditioning Complex in the Scrub contains oils and butter that help retain moisture in lips and give a smooth finish. The natural sugar particles are of various sizes to better reach in between the fine lines and wrinkles in your lips. 

Ingredients ;
Natural Sugar 40%
Conditioning Complex (Mango Seed Butter, Shea Butter, Argan Oil, Avocado Oil, Macadamia Nut Oil, Olive Oil)


I love this scrub, it isn't too sticky  .The sugar provides the exfoliating, while the oil and butter hold everything together while providing moisture and nourishment to your lips.The jar is too small, but you only need a small dab from your finger. But it doesn't matter to me , because this lip scrub works really well on me. When i put the scrub on my lips and rubbed it, the sugar particles immediately melt and leave my lips so smooth , no more dead skin cells on lips either. After i finish with the scrubbing, i apply my favourite lip balm to maximize the result. And of  course since this is a lip scrub, the consistency is kinda thick because of the sugar particles.

How to use it :
Apply appropriate amount onto lips and gently massage with fingertips. When sugar particles melt and lips feel softer, wipe off with tissue.

REVIEW PICTURES ;

Pros
Makes my lips smooth and moisturized
Classy packaging
Inexpensive price
Melts quickly
Remove dead skin
Colorants-free, Parabenes-free and Alcohol-free formula

Cons
Too small
Inefficient
Leaves a lil bit sticky feeling

Rating  : 4/5
Will you repurchase ? no, after this i want to try another lipscrub from Lush.

Overall , i'm really pleased with this lip scrub. It does everything it says, like smoothes,moisturizes, and removes dead skin cells. The price is also affordable too, so this is a perfect lip scrub for those girls who are too lazy too make their own lip scrub recipe at home.

See you next time in another review !

REVIEW : HOLIKA HOLIKA Miracle Real Skin Finish

Hi guys ~

Today i want to review about Miracle Real Skin Finish from Holika Holika. When i saw the cf of Bora-Sistar in youtube, i was interested because it tells that your face feels like wearing no makeup at all and  the texture is more weightless comparing to bb cream. So what i'm trying to say is this multi-cream can be used under bb cream as a base or use it alone replacing bb cream function. It also has spf protection and mosturizes.

 

 From the box :
" Multi-cream with sun screen and whitening function that treats your skin tone-up and makes your bare skin look bright."

So the miracle real skin finish comes in 2 jars and of course since i have oily skin , i picked the purple one.
Even though it provides for oily/combination skin, the cream still gives an healthy glowy finish. I would say the coverage is medium because it doesn't cover my acne scars at all. The texture is light, and to be honest i don't like the strong smells. At first my face become a fully white when i wore this cream, but after that it blended on my skin perfectly.

How to use it :
Take out the right amount according to your skintone, apply it to the face.

REVIEW PICTURES  :



loves the pop-out butterfly !

english instructions on the box




contains 50 g of product




                                          BEFORE                                                     AFTER

Pros
- Has spf protection
- Correcting uneven skintone
- Medium coverage
- Lightweight
- Glowy finish
- The price is worth it for 50 g container

Cons
- Makes my skin a little breakout in my case
- Too white for those who have dark skin
- Weak in control oilness ( only lasts for 2-3 hours)
- Strong fragrance

Rating : 3/5
Will you repurchase ? No. 50 g is already a lot, i swear i won't be able to finish it until next year.

Overall, this is a multi-cream is good for those lazy people who don't like wearing bb cream or foundation.
This suncream is lightweight to used for your everyday makeup routine, you can also wear it  under bb cream/foundation as a base/mosturizer or wear it alone, or even can be mixed with your bb cream to create a glowy finish. I think this cream will performance better on dry skin.


See you next time in another review !

REVIEW : CroQuis Swing Styler Makeup Set

Hi guys ,

Long time no blog. Today i'm going to review one of CroQuis products, which is The Swing Styler Makeup Set in 01. I haven't heard this brand before, but again its a Korean brand. I was given this from my friends due to my 17th birthday. Thanks guys ! ;p

This makeup set comes with a mirror and contains four storeys . First is four neutral eyeshadows for everyday makeup, second is a bronzer and a  highlighter, third is coral and pink blush, and the fourth is peachy coral and  glittery pink lipgloss. Sounds complete, right ?

However i can't find details about the product, you may ask my friends where they find this product :p


EYESHADOWS :

It take 3 swipes to swatched  in my hand. I think the colors are quite sheer , and they have little bit shimmer on it. But i tend to find that the second top and second bottom have more shimmer than the other two. So if you want to create a night look for the parties , etc you can use them. I love the colors,  they are very easy to use and match with the outfit you wear.

BRONZER and HIGHLIGHTER :

The bronzer is really fair and not fit for my yellow-skin tone, and it has a shimmer on it. So i will use it as a highlighter for my cheek. The highlighter is okay, its perfect for shading my nose.

BLUSHERS :

I loveee the colours ,very suitable for spring and summer look ! The peach blush is shimmery but the glitters won't look visible on your face. And then the pink one will add you a cute doll-looking when you use it.
But then again the colors are medium-sheer , but its fine to me since i like natural makeup so I dont wear too much blush. haha

LIPGLOSSES :

The colours look pigmented in palette, but actually it looks sheer when i swipe.  I dont really like use the lipgloss  in a palette though since it isnt convenient using finger or brush.

EYESHADOW
BRONZER and HIGHLIGHTER

BLUSHERS

LIPGLOSSES



Pros  :
Complete set of makeup
Neutral colours
Easy to carried everywhere
Has a mirror inside to make the application even easier

Cons :
No brushes included
The colors are sheer
The colors are only suit for those who has fair - medium skin

Rating  : 3.5/5
Will you repurchase it ? no, because just this one is enough for me. ^,^

Overall , this is an easy makeup set for beginners. I reccomended it especially the price won't be too as pricey as you buy it seperately. But i won't buy it if i have dark skin because the set is more 'focus' on people with fair-medium skin.


see you next time !
