Empties

Hello,

this time around I'm having a lot of face products. I'm trying a lot of new stuff and some older ones that didn't convinced me have to go.

First and second tubes are two Holika Holika discontinued Petite BB creams. In the yellow packaging is Bouncy with nice coverage but way too dark for me so I barely used it. Second is Aqua and while the shade matches me better it has barely there coverage so I only used it on my neck to connect my face with the rest of my body.

The white tube is my second Avon Anew clinical advanced resurfacing peel with 10% glycolic acid. Inside you get 30 soaked pads which you rub over cleansed face and if you have some dry skin, acne or just sensitive skin it will lightly burn or tingle. It didn't bother me too much but I wasn't using them regularly so I can't tell if they worked for me. As I mentioned this is my second pack but I won't be spending my money on something I'm not even sure if it works for me.

The bottle on top is my beloved Afrodita great burdock hair oil. I swear that this oil is magical as it helps my hair grow faster (even my sister and mom can verify that because they both are using their own bottles of it). I talked about it here.

This lip balm was sent to me but I was so interested in it that I would probably spent my own money on it but at the end I'm glad that I didn't. This was very average balm that did very little for my dry and chapped lips but it smelled so nice, like a true Mango. It is from Essence & the lovely little things LE and was named & we kissed.

The last two tubes are both from Korean brands and are green make-up bases. First is Tony Moly Baby Doll make up mint base and second is The Face Shop air cotton green make up base. I did buy them on two different occasions and were my first make up primers and at the beginning I was excited about them but later I discovered better ones so these two were left forgotten. I know I had them for so long and that they probably already went bad so I'm tossing them before they start to reek.

green primer

Hello,

I have been testing a new primer and I don't consider myself as an expert because this is my third ever primer but I still wanted to share my opinion and maybe a couple of years later I will read back this post and rediscovered something that I liked.

The Face Shop Air Cotton make-up base in Mint

This one is from The Face Shop and the full name is Air Cotton make-up base in Mint, so another redness reducing primer. It is smooth and applies like a moisturizer. The shade is very light and it bleaches me a little bit but it's okay since I always put BB cream or foundation on top. It does not make my skin super matte but my make-up afterwards looks nice, slightly dewy, just the way I like it.

The Face Shop Air Cotton make-up base in Mint

I have been using it all over my face but I tried to use extra under my eyes where I have fine lines, around my nose where I get really oily and around my mouth where laugh lines are appearing (I smile a lot  ;)  and my make-up did surprisingly well. I experienced way less creasing.
This baby proved to be worth it. I don't know when I will use the other primer since this one just become my Holy Grail primer.

e-bay package

Hello,

I'm back with another little package from Korea. I almost forgot what I ordered and I was pleasantly surprised when I opened the package. This time I didn't received any samples which is odd but it's okay because I can't wait to start using the products I actually ordered.

SkinFood black charcoal konjac sponge,  A'pieu Ait Fit cushion refill in the shade 23, Etude House Mugwort face masks & The Face Shop Air Cotton makeup base in Mint

The first thing you probably notice is the huge packaging of the SkinFood black charcoal konjac sponge. It is recommended for oily skin which gets attacked by acne frequently so with an everyday use it should clear up the skin. I can't wait to see if it really works and I have to figure it out where I will hange it in my bathroom.

Next in the silver packaging is A'pieu Ait Fit cushion refill in the shade 23, I don't know what I was thinking because I know that my shade is lighter, 21. So, I will probably test the texture and if I will like it I will order myself another one in lighter shade. Also, the refills don't come with a sponge. I fill like a complete dummy for not knowing that.

Then we have Etude House Mugwort face masks. I still haven't tried the Royal Jelly ones from my previous order so I don't know when exactly I will take the time to really use them but I will mark it down in my calendar to remember.

And the last item is from The Face Shop and it is another primer. This is Air Cotton makeup base in Mint, so just another redness reducing one.

After I will properly tried them on I will for sure posted my opinion about all of them.

e-bay order

Hello,

I have been waiting for this package for a long time but now it is finally here. Be careful if you will ever order stuff from Korea that you don't exceed the highest allowed value of the package,  I did and I had to pay tax :(  so now all the things I ordered aren't as cheap as I expected. Next time I will rather buy less or at least wait that seller will ship my package and than ordered another bunch. Lesion learned.

I literally got these items today so I didn't even have the time to play with them but they will get my full attention. There are two brow pencils which are for my sister but she doesn't know that yet, it will be a surprise for her.

The other two products are for me and they are both from Tony Moly, one is a beautiful blush and the other one is a make-up base.

After I will try them I will post a short review if I like them or not.

Thank you for reading and have a nice day
