Review: {Rojukiss} ENCA AC Control BB cream

Hello hello!

Today I'll be reviewing a BB cream I got last week. I've used it quite a few times so I think it's time for a review on it! This is my first ever BB cream review! Hope you guys like it!

This BB cream is specifically made for acne prone skin. I got this when I got the whole range of the ENCA AC Control range at a local store. They ensured that this product was imported from South Korea.


 photo DSC_1924_zps34b502bd.jpg
The front of the box.


 photo DSC_1926_zps2e27a1c8.jpg
The back. It's all in hangul :(


 photo DSC_1925_zps6ce7314a.jpg The ingredients! Good thing they have English ^^ (Sorry it's blur ><)


 photo DSC_1927_zpsa14cfb3e.jpg
The actual product. It's suppose to whiten, reduce wrinkles and it also has SPF30!


 photo DSC_1928_zps6b2df4c8.jpg
It's in English! The packaging is really simple though I don't really like it. I prefer cuter packages ><
The directions printed on is really simple, it says Spread evenly a proper amount on skin. Ok so it might not be correct English but you get the picture heh.


 photo DSC_1929_zps6baa1043.jpg
It comes with this nozzle head which I don't really like because I can't estimate how much product can come out in one squeeze!

 photo DSC_1958_zpsc3d7195c.jpg
Let's see how well it will cover my eyeliner dot!


 photo DSC_1959_zps514269aa.jpg
Ta-dahh! It has a medium to high coverage. The downside is that if I don't blend it properly it can get too light for my face!

What Rojukiss says:
" This is a tri-functional cream solving at a time all the agony of whitening, wrinkle care and sun screening which sensitive skin inevitably brings up.
  Althea officinalis extract, cavacava extract calms down skin softly and lemon balm, rosemary, green tea extract and sweet almond oil provide skin with moisture and nutrients to keep skin healthy."

PROS:
-Good coverage.

-Designed for acne proned skin!

-It has SPF 30.

-Does not clog pores.

-The scent! I personally love it but I think most people won't be able to stand it.

CONS:
-Only has one shade.

-Highlights my dry spots.

Overall Rating: 3.5/5 It can be improved but still a good product!

Repurchase?: Maybe? Hopefully my skin will clear up so I can use different products T.T



Sorry for not blogging constantly! My assignments are piling up and the haze has been making me feel dizzy this pass few days. Stay indoors Malaysians, Singaporians and whoever is affected by the haze!

Rant #1

Hello loves!

As the tittle says I just have a little rant today. Anyways today I was suppose to go for an observation in a kindergarten for my assignment. I went to the kindy but my partner didn't. She last minute say she can't meet with me because her friend that was suppose to pick her didn't want too. I have to admit I was pretty furious. I mean I woke up at 7am so that I'd be there by 9am. I am not a morning person and I tend to get a little snappy. Good thing I was dealing with kids, their cute face calmed me down abit. I really can't stand it when people change plans like this. It was a pair work thing so I HAD to do it with her. I wish she was more responsible.

To make matters more annoying my driving instructor doesn't want me to do morning or evening lessons because it's jam so I gave a call to the driving centre to change times but the clerk was sick!

I also forgot to buy bus tickets back for my Singapore trip next month. So many things to do this month! Assignment due date for my 3 subjects is end of this month too! Sigh.

I heard that GFC was closing down D: I hope that all my followers would follow me on Bloglovin! You can click the link here! or on the sidebar! Please please please follow me ><

June haul.

Hello loves!

So in the beginning of this June, I went and got myself a few things here and there. Almost all of the stuff I got in this haul is skincare products!

Some of these items I got during a sale and some is from my mom ^^ hehehe. 


 photo a596411f-0fc3-48bd-b853-8d66f68c6712_zps1916f709.jpg
So here's what I got so far in the month of June!
A few items from Etude house and the rest is from different places!


 photo DSC_1899_zpsb1fe2405.jpg
Etude house had a 1 for 1 sale and I couldn't resist! I bought an emulsion and a toner from the skin mal:gem series. The toner I chose is deep moist for dry skin. The sales rep told me it's best not to use the emulsion and the deep moist toner together because both of them are really moisturizing. I also got their It's Real Mini Pack mask in Broccoli and Sea Kelp. Broccoli for antioxidant care and Sea Kelp for Moisturizing care.


 photo DSC_1901_zps8f84e47c.jpg
I also bought a shading brush and also a facial cleansing sponge. I love using sponges now! Heh.


 photo 35ca6c19-bfa9-4412-90ab-34e44050a473_zps3588b643.jpg
Lastly my mom got me this ENCA AC Control range because recently my skin seemed to keep breaking out ! The shop has the offer of buy 4 free 1 so I got the AC Drying Pink Powder free!

I already started using the sponge and the ENCA range and I'll do a review if I think the product is good! Also if you guys want to get yourself the Etude House Skin Mal:gem series go to w2beauty and enter this code 14111406 to skin $5 off your order and they also provide free shipping! Go to the link in this post or on the sidebar! ^^ Thank you for reading! Also if GFC does close down I hope you all will still follow me on bloglovin! Link is on the sidebar!

I chose this mask because I have serious dry skin, skin elasticity that I'm not to sure and well I have serious skin trouble T.T

2. Apply mask
3. Wait for 15-20minutes. (I usually just leave it on till it's almost dry)
4. Tap in excess essence and put on your moisturizer.

Review: {Etude House} Baking Powder Cleansing Foam Moist

Hello loves!

I'm back with a review on a cleansing foam from Etude House. I got the cleansing foam from their Baking Powder line because I've heard some great reviews for it. Since I have dry skin I went ahead and got the moisturising one. They also have the normal one and the one to cleanse your BB cream one as well.


 photo 7e40bf76-0fe9-4baa-9cc9-af21ef1511e8_zps77497b5a.jpg
The packaging for the moist one is pink! The other one is blue! 
I still feel like the packaging looks like it's for detergent or something like that hehehe.


 photo 20130607_145848_zps4c3ba2ab.jpg
The back of the tube.


 photo 20130607_145916_zps24f3a71c.jpg
Close up on the description and direction.

Direction:
- Wet face and dispense small amount onto hands.
- Lather and apply foam to face.
- Wash and rinse thoroughly with warm water.


 photo 20130607_145948_zps248f82be.jpg
It comes with a seal to ensure your getting a fresh new product.


 photo 20130607_150013_zpsb2ffd9f9.jpg
It comes in a squeezy tube :D


 photo 20130607_150915_zps0311ba46.jpg
Sometimes even after you remove your makeup there might be a slight chance of residue?
Anyway these are the products I use daily BB cream, Foundation, Eyeliner, Mascara, Glitter liner.


 photo 20130607_150949_zps3f3945b5.jpg

 photo 20130607_151127_zps1049a0c2.jpg
Added water and gently rubbed again.


 photo 20130607_151237_zpsa5951b52.jpg
Final result!! It left some residue from the glitter liner but it did pretty well since I remove my makeup before I cleanse anyway.

What Etude House says:
" Formulated with Baking Powder to penetrate and cleanse deep within pores to remove makeup and residues. Maintains rich, smooth lather for moist sensation"


PROS:
- Cleanses pretty well.

- Does not leave my skin feeling tight and makes it feel moisturized.

- A little goes a long way!


CONS:
- Smells a little bit like detergent? But I don't really mind it so it's not really a con.

Overall rating: 5/5 It does it's job well!

Repurchase?: I might if I don't find any other suitable cleanser for my skin! ^^


I might stop using all my products and start using ENCA products that are formulated for acne prone skin because recently I'm not sure why my skin started breaking out and alot of people commented on it so I've been feeling a little down. So I hope this line will clear up my skin and if it works then more reviews!!

Kbbq lunch.

Hello!
Just gonna do a short update!

So today my mom and I went to a korean bbq place in Kota Kemuning, if I'm not mistaken the place is called Annyeonghaseyo korean traditional barbecue restaurant.

They served us side dishes when we ordered. They also gave us cold water in a plastic jug. I forgot to take a picture of the water.

We ordered Sangyupsal which is pork belly! It was delicious omg. I loveeee kbbq alot. I feel like going back there again T.T

Review: {The Face Shop} Real Nature Mask

Hellooooooooooo ^^

I'm back again with a review! I'll be reviewing The Face Shops Aloe Vera and Mung Bean Real Nature Masks. I bought a bundle set for sensitive the last time I was in Singapore so it was slightly cheaper (: I should have bought the one for dry skin too >< The sensitive skin set comes with 3 Aloe Vera mask, 3 Mug Bean mask, 2 Kelp mask and 2 Cucumber mask so all in there is 10 mask in this bundle.


 photo 20130530_213748_zps9682261d.jpg
This is the Mung Bean one. The packaging is really simple just some picture of Mung beans hahaha!


 photo acf2089d-cce8-4205-9c5e-aaa6322524f6_zps7ee880ea.jpg
And this is the Aloe Vera one! Which is the same concept as the Mung bean.


 photo 20130530_213828_zps94f62015.jpg
The back of the Mung Bean one.

This the the back of the Aloe Vera one. The instructions are the same (:




This is how the inside of the packet looks like. Filled with essence :D
The fit of the mask! I like this mask more than the Etude House one. This actually covers up my nose! HAHAHAH. #Bignoseproblemsolved!

The direction of this mask is just like any mask. Pull it out and put it on your face for 15-20 minutes. I normally put it on till it's about dry. I don't like wasting essence hehehe! This mask is soaked when you first pull it out, I just rub the excess essence onto my neck.

What The Face Shop Says:

Mung Bean mask:
- Detoxifying, eliminates skin impurities.
- Purifies pores and soothes irritation and brake outs.

Aloe Vera mask:
- Excellent soothing effect.
- Aids in skin renewal and accelerates cell regeneration.


PROS:
-Easy to use.

-Both of it made my skin supple and hydrated.

-Nice smell.

-Mask has a nice fit.

-Soothed my skin.

CONS:
-Didn't really clear lighten my scars

Overall rating: 4.5/5 Not much complains just that the Aloe Vera one didn't " Aids in skin renewal and accelerates cell regeneration."

Repurchase?: If it's on offer again why not hehehe.



Hope you guys enjoyed this review ^^ Please follow me! Hehehe.

Review: {Etude House} Sweet Recipe Dear My Jelly Lips-talk

Hey hey lovelies!

I'm back again with another review! Today's review is on a lipstick! To be honest I don't wear lipsticks much because I use to think that it makes my lips too big. Weird I know so I normally stick with lip glosses then later lip tints, but I still like this lip stick!

The shade I got was JPK003 Sweet Cotton Candy Munch. There are 8 colours from this line of lipsticks, Lychee, Strawberry, Orange, Mango, Lemon, Cotton Candy, Grapefruit and Plum. I chose this shade is because I thought it was a pretty colour when I was swatching it on my hand in the store.


 photo 20130603_143255_zps7708caff.jpg
It comes in this really pretty box. This is the front.


 photo 20130603_143447_zps34621cd7.jpg
The sides has English!

Recipe for Jelly Lips.

  1. Clean lip area.
  2. Thoroughly apply moist and shimmery Dear My Jelly Lips-talk, starting from centre of lips.
  3. Sweet, juicy lips complete!

I find this really cute hehehe.

The other side.


 photo 20130603_143324_zps270584e2.jpg

The actual product! I like how you can tell the colour by the cute little jelly bean like beads at the bottom.
I love the etude house logo on the lipstick itself! It's so pretty!!!

On lips!!

What Etude House says:

" This sheer colored lipstick gives you irresistible jelly lips with its moist, shimmery finish and the sweet jelly     scent. "


PROS:
- Nice colour.

- Moisturizing.

- Smells AHMAZING! Like jelly beans really! But if you don't like candies you won't like this scent.

- Nice packaging.

CONS:
- A little pricey.

OVERALL RATING: 4.5/5 minus 0.5 for the price heh.

REPURCHASE?: In different shade probably. If it's still available.

Review: {Etude House} Green Tea Natural mask

Hello loves!

As I said yesterday I'm back again today for a review on a face mask. Today I'll be reviewing a mask from Etude house! This is my first time using an Etude house mask ^^. I've been using mask more often now because I really am desperate to have nice skin T.T I think my skin might be sensitive too ):

Well moving on, this mask is a Green Tea Sheet Mask from Etude house. I bought this when Etude house was having an offer at 5 mask for Rm15 which is quite reasonable. Normal price is Rm6-RM7 for one of these mask!


 photo 20130523_012311_zpsd339cc84.jpg
This is how the packaging looks like. It's really cute and you can see tiny humans extracting the green tea goodness!


 photo 20130523_012340_zpsafd580b9.jpg
The back of the package.

DIRECTIONS:
1.Apply mask sheet to cleansed face and leave on for 20-30 minutes.

2.Remove mask and massage remaining solution into skin with hands.

3. Recommended interval for mask application is every 2~3 days for maximum efficacy.

* Hold and apply sheet according to diagram below.

* Pull tabs outwards against facial surface to incite tension fit.



 photo 20130523_012411_zpsf4efa4d9.jpg
So when you open it up it looks like this. It's just like any other sheet masks. It's soak up with the green tea goodness.


 photo 20130523_012705_zpsa8f7a7b0.jpg
I made this photo smaller because I'm scared I'll scare of people HAHAHA. Excuse the pjs hehe.
So this is how the face mask looks like when it's on. The nose area is a little small ): or maybe it's because I have a huge nose.


What Etude House Says:
  1. Essence mask contains green tea extract that soothes and comforts stressed and fatigued skin. Tension fit design for improved facial adhesion and comfort.
  2. Contain 1000mg green tea extract.

PROS:
- Reasonable price.

-Easy to use.

-Brightens up the skin.

-Pleasant smell.


CONS:
- Mask couldn't cover my nose. 

- Hydrates the skin abit.


Overall Rating: 3.5/5 


Repurchase?:  Most probably will if they have an offer again! It does fairly well for the price I paid (:

I hope you guys find this review useful! Please follow me hehehe.
