REVIEW: Missha Love Lip Milk Tint

Happy February! (I can already see a lot of red, hearts and chocolates everywhere.) 💖💖💖💖

For my first entry this February, I'll be doing a quick review on Missha Love Lip Milk Tint. 

Whenever I am in a hurry to go to work or I feel lazy putting on lipstick, I just use my good old Tony Moly Tony Tint. I've been using this tint for four years already and it never failed me. It was just recently when I tried using other lip tints and I was so lucky when an online seller gave Missha Love Lip Milk Tint as a freebie. 

Product name: Missha Love Lip Milk Tint

Price:Got this for free! 👍

REVIEW: Missha In Shower Comfort Hair Removal Cream

Weeeeeeeeeee! Hello all! 

Having a second blog entry in a month is such a big accomplishment for me this 2017. ☝

I just had my 10-day vacation and I went on a total sloth mode. I ate, slept and rarely moved when I was at home. Also, I wasn't able to shave the hair from my legs that when I saw it the night before returning to work, I was horrified! My legs  had a lot of hair that is around 1cm long. Also, I do not have any available razor that night. The stores are already closed. 

Good thing I when I checked the cabinet where I keep all my hoarded skin care / korean products, I was able to stumble on Missha In Shower Comfort Hair Removal Cream. I purchased this a long time ago and I almost forgot that I have this product.

So today, I'll be giving a short review on Missha In Shower Comfort Hair Removal Cream. As early as now, I want to apologize to those who would be offended with my hairy leg 😅😛 hahaha!

Here we go! 

REVIEW: Missha Time Revolution Clear Toner, Missha Time Revolution The First Treatment Essence, and Missha Time Revolution Night Repair Borabit Ampoule

Hello!
Few more days left before 2017 and I would like to blog some of the amazing items I had this 2016. I am just so glad to have time to sit in front of the computer to blog :) 

I finally got over my addiction to lipsticks and lip tints. I just realised that I only needed few shades that matches my skin tone. But unfortunately, I developed a new addiction to skin care products. For this year, I bought 3 sets of skin care products and oh boy! they are quite expensive. 

Maybe because I am already going to 30 next year that I have decided to take care of my skin more. It's a little bit too late because I should've started when I was in my early 20's but unfortunately, I wasn't earning enough that time to afford the luxury of creams, serums, toners and all. Hahaha! 

I've also decided this 2016 to strictly follow the famous '10-step Korean Skincare Routine'. I tried doing it last 2015 but I felt it was so time-consuming and I felt so lazy that I decided to stop. But I was persistent to try this skin care routine this year that I bought skincare sets, essences, and creams. 

This year, I got the Missha Time Revolution Best Seller Special Set II and it was a great buy. 👍

It's a great buy because I was able to purchase this set PhP 3,640.00. If I'll be buying them all separately, I think I would be spending around PhP 6,000.00 and I can't afford that. 


Well anyways, I'll be doing a quick review of Missha Time Revolution Clear Toner, Missha Time Revolution Night Repair Borabit Ampoule and Missha Time Revolution The First Treatment Essence. So far, I am loving these three. :) 


*By the way, sorry for filling up this entry with a lot of special characters. I didn't realize that they look so cute!* ✌

Unboxing: Missha Time Revolution Best Seller Special Set ll

Oh my!
After a gazillion years of being on hiatus, I am back! Totally back!

I have been so busy with work these days and I guess my age's catching up on me that I would rather sleep and do nothing on my free time. But I really miss this blog so I am back again for the nth time. :)

For now, I'll just show you a skin care set that I have purchased two month ago - Missha Time Revolution Best Seller Special Set II. 


I've been eyeing on this set for a long time but it's really quite expensive. Good thing I found a seller on Facebook who sells this on a pre-order basis. And after more or less 3 weeks of waiting, I was able to get my hands on this: 

Yup! That's the big me on the reflection :)

It was an awesome feeling! 

I'll do a separate review for each of the items inside the box. For now, I just want to show you what's inside. :)

REVIEW: Missha The Style Nail Polish Solvent

I'm going to try a short, quick review tonight. :) 



I bought another batch of stash from my favorite online shop, Han Ryu. :) One thing that caught my eye was the Missha The Style Nail Polish Solvent.


I love to color my nails. From neon colors to glittery. Unfortunately, I became so busy at work that I do not have time to put on some nail polish and dry my nails. Also, I am very particular with chipped nail polish that whenever the nail polish starts to chip, I remove everything with nail polish remover and repaint my nails again. Because of that, my nails became brittle and dry. :(
I decided to take it slow on nail polish. 

I have a lot of unused nail polish. All colors and types. Here's the proof. These are the 'forgotten ones'. I can't used them because they are already drying up. I couldn't throw them away because these bottles are around 70-80% full. 

When I saw Han Ryu selling Missha The Style Nail Polish Solvent, I decided to give it a try, hoping it would save these beauties. 
(Large photos ahead! I posted photos in humongous sizes - alright I am exaggerating. I posted a lot of photos so that you can clearly see everything. May take some time for all the photos to load)


Product Name: Missha The Style Nail Polish Solvent
Price: bought it for 155pesos only 
Content: 15 ml

REVIEW: Missha Perfect Cover BB Cream SPF 42 PA+++

I DO NOT have a flawless face. I wish I had but NOOOOO I don't. 
I wish I had a flawless face so I don't have to spend money on hiding my pimple scars, my pores, my uneven skintone and my dark circles under my eyes.

I guess that's the reason why I keep on searching for anything that will hide those imperfections. 

Last 2010, I've discovered BB Creams and I fell in love with them. I've tried a lot and this is one brand that I will keep forever. 

*********************************************************************************

Actually this is a late review. I was supposed to blog this a long time ago but because of so many reasons, I didn't.




I already made a review for MISSHA M Signature Real Complete BB Cream SPF 25 PA++. But before I fell in love with that, I fell in love to it's cheaper version, the Missha Perfect Cover BB Cream SPF 42 PA+++


THE PRODUCT: 
-Missha Perfect Cover BB Cream SPF 42 PA+++
-It's a BB Cream. 
-Comes in 5 shades (But shades #21 Light Beige and #23 Natural Beige works well for Asian skin.) 
-I am using #23 Natural Beige.
-Comes in 2 sizes - 20ml and 50ml

-The product promises: 
*Whitening
*Anti-Wrinkle
*UV Protection (SPF 42 PA+++)

According to it's website: 

"The M Perfect Cover BB Cream gives an even and natural-looking coverage with the soothing, moisturising properties of a cream. It is suitable for all skin types including acne-prone skin, and can be used as a makeup base or foundation. "

-THE PRICE: 
Missha Philippines: * PhP 700 - 20ml
                                   * PhP 1,600 - 50ml

Online stores on ebay: *Price ranges from PhP 800-990

Han Ryu: PhP 800 - I think this was her discounted price. (how I love this shop!) 

This is one of my first-favorite BB cream:  Missha Perfect Cover BB Cream SPF 42 PA+++ (50ml)

What it says 

- The tube comes with a pump. Unlike MISSHA M Signature Real Complete BB Cream,  Missha Perfect Cover BB Cream comes in soft tube that will allow you to squeeze the remaining cream 'til the last drop (that's good news for cheapskates like me!) 
Oh! by the way, it 20 ml tube does NOT have a pump.

Here's what inside the tube (again, pardon me for the camera and my hairy hand ^_^): 
-You may notice that Missha Perfect Cover BB Cream has a cream-y consistency compared to Missha M Signature Real Complete BB Cream which has a water-y consistency.

The REAL TEST: 

Ever since I was in highschool, I have been bothered by my pimples and honestly, those zits took away my self-esteem. When I was in college, my pimples were aggravated by endless late night sleeps,  emotional and physical stress and unhealthy lifestyle. I was like a walking 'zombie zit'.
So when I started working, I did my best to cover them up until finally, I was able to overcome this pubescent horror. And I have learned how to embrace my imperfections :) 

Well, here it goes!

This is the real test (and this is why I love BB creams)

Here are my close-up photos without anything on my face. 

I have visible pores and pimple scars especially on the left side of my face

Those pores! And I guess the lack of sleep and stress at work is already taking a toll on my face.

Oh! And don't these two look the same? (LOL!)

The APPLICATION: 

- Here's what I do (the application varies on the person using this product)

-I do my basic facial routine - wash my face with a facial wash then I apply my facial toner.

- If my face turns dry (which rarely happens), I apply a moisturizer first.

- I let the moisturizer dry before I apply Missha Perfect Cover. 

- A pea-size amount is already enough to cover your face but if you want a more heavy coverage then you can add and blend. 

THE 'AFTER-EFFECT'

-Here are my before - after photos: 

 I love the coverage of this BB Cream. 

This is really my favorite part. 

 It also cleared my uneven skin tone. 

Hmmm.. those nasty pimple scars on the left side of my face are really bugging me. So what I do is I apply three layers of BB cream. (click the photo to view the entire image)

And the Finale! 

WHAT CAN I SAY?

- I totally love this. 

- It does not oxidize on my skin.

- Though it does  not entirely cover my pores, it does a great job in making them look small. 

- It clears my uneven skintone. 

- NO BREAKOUTS. 

- Though it does not entirely cover my pimple scars, I think it made my pimple scars look 'tolerable'

- It is easy to apply. 

- A little goes a long way (One 50ml tube can last for 4-6months if used 6 times a week.)

- Good for people with oily skin. I brush a thin (very thin) layer of foundation after 5 - 6 hours of putting on the BB cream to keep the oil at bay. 

- The scent is not  too overpowering. It has a normal, light powdery smell. 

-This actually saves me from buying expensive mineral foundation. 

- I love the whooping SPF42 ++++ (I still do not have any idea what the +++ means) 

The CONS:

- NOTHING

- Oh! one thing, find a good make-up remover/cleanser whenever you use this. It's a bit kinda hard to remove the traces of Missha BB creams on your face. 

I am still using this and this BB cream and I will really have a good relationship with it for a long time. :) 

REVIEW: MISSHA M Signature Real Complete BB Cream SPF 25 PA++

My zits are popping out these days. I hate it. I am 25 and I thought that I would outgrow this pubescent nightmare. BUT NO!!!!!!!

That is why I splurge a lot on foundations and concealers. 

Then came BB CREAMS!

I've heard about this 'wonder cream' two years ago. 

The first one I've tried is the The Skin79 Hot Pink BB cream. The oil control was good but it was too light on my skin. I had to try other stuff till I found out about Missha M Perfect Cover BB Cream SPF42 PA+++. 

The Skin79 Hot Pink BB cream

Missha M Perfect Cover BB Cream SPF42 PA+++

I am supposed to do a review for Missha M Perfect Cover BB Cream but I just found another recent discovery.
I am loving the MISSHA M Signature Real Complete BB Cream SPF 25 PA++.

I bought this again on Facebook. :) 

Here is what I can say about the product. 

THE PRODUCT: 

- It is a BB cream. (BB stands for "Blemish Balm," "Beauty Balm" or "Beblesh Balm")

- THE PROMISES: 

 

- SHADES: 

It comes in 2 shades:  No.21 (Light Pink Beige) and No.23 (Natural Yellow Beige)

But when I was checking out the infos on the net, they also have No.13 (Light Milk Beige). I guess this shade is not suited for Filipina skin. 

- SIZE:

20 ml and 45 ml
