Review: {Tony Moly} AC Control Toner


Hello!

I'm going to talk about one of the products that I'm using, the first time I ever tried this was from a sample I got when someone visited a tony moly store and gave it to me to try. I like it so much that I went ahead and purchased the full sized product, after I used it and finish my first bottle finish I went ahead and got another one whilst I was in Korea. I use this daily in my skin care regime and have been loving it so far!

Let's look at the product,


This is how the packaging looks like. The box is quite shiny and it's a really simple design.



At the back of the product it has the information, direction and cautions.


One of the side of the box, it's in korean so I can't really translate.


The other side of the box with the ingredients list.

Close up of the ingredients because I'm too lazy to type it all out hehehe.


Top of the box has the brand name and the product name in hangeul.


The bottle like the box is a clean blue colour and you can easily see how much product is left.


The back of the bottle once again has the name in hangeul and how much product it is and the products lifespan after opening.


It comes with a pump dispenser which I love because it's super convenient!


This is the old bottle design of the product. I recently just finished it. I also realized that the old packaging had less content than the new packaging!



It still has the same pump dispenser just that the old one is blue and the new one is white.



 I usually pump it 3-4 times onto the cotton pad when I apply at night to remove all the excess makeup/dirt from my skin. In the morning I pump it straight to my hands.


This is the cotton after I used it on my face. On this particular day I didn't use any makeup but when I do I can still see the cotton has a tiny bit of brown colour so I know it really helps clear my face one more time. My skin doesn't feel tight or any discomfort whenever I use this product so I'm rather happy with it!


What Tony Moly says:
Image taken from their website~


PROS:
- Makes my skin feel fresh after using.
- Skin feels soft and not dry after using.
- Smells good! At least to me it does.
- Helps with the prevention of acne.

CONS:
- I don't really have complaints for this product.

Overall Rating:
 5/5, it does make my skin feel hydrated and fresh like it claims so thumbs up from me!

Repurchase?: 
Already repurchased once and might repurchase again, but after this bottle I feel like trying the laniege toner.


So overall I do like it and would recommend people who have a mild acne problem to try it out but then again what works for me might not work for you so maybe you could try a sample before buying the full product like I did! 

Another plus point is B1A4 started endorsing Tony Moly so that makes me want to check out Tony Moly even more hehehehe.

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.

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!

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.

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

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!

Review: {Etude House} Wonder Pore Freshner

So form my recent trip to Singapore I went over to etude house and picked up this Wonder Pore Freshner. I was deliberating on whether or not I should get the 500ml or 25ml one and decided to try out the 250ml one first.

This is how the product looks like in the box.
(Sorry for the crappy blur picture :/ I took new pictures but my computer doesn't want to read my sd card!)

The bottle itself. It's a regular plastic bottle which is good for me because i tend to drop stuff so I'm terrified of glassed packaging!

"I'm the Wonder Women for Your Pores" hehehe as you can see it's best to dispose after a year of usage because some ingredients might lose their functions after awhile!

 photo 20130505_150630_zpsc2b5c0e3.jpg
What it claims to do, instructions and also the ingredient list!

 photo 20130505_151111_zps692d3bc1.jpg
Cute illustrations they have on the box and the 7 in 1 benefits.
Rough translation of the picture in the check check column!
1. If your face is itching for no reason!
2. If you have troubled skin!
3. When your face feels greasy/oily!
4. When pores are clogged and look larger!

 photo 20130505_150638_zps16c32437.jpg 7 in 1 total pore solution! ^^

Back of the box!

Two of the main ingredients is Anti-Pore-Dex Complex (pasqueflower, dandelion, chrysanthemum, pyeonbaek tree extract), which I believe is used to fight against human Demodex mites that live in our pores and lay eggs there and destroy our skin from the inside!! This mites are what makes your skin itch sometimes! Another ingredient is Astringentlelex (catechu, cinnamon, jiyugaoka, lotus, geranium complex extract) is for minimizing the pores.

*I use abit more than this*

I've been using this for about 2 weeks and I really like it! I use it day and night and it doesn't feel harsh at all! It glides on like most toners and my skin absorbs it really well and my face doesn't feel sticky and all and what I love is it didn't give my skin the dry skin tugging feeling! Also it didn't sting my face like some toners do! It doesn't really have an overwhelming scent so thats nice! Another plus is that it's free form paraben, talc, artificial colouring! It's suppose to make pores smaller but it didn't really reduce my pore size ><

PROS
- Not harsh on skin
-Doesn't dry out skin
-Does not cause breakouts!
-Doesn't sting
-Can be used as mist
-Reasonable price bought it at SGD18.90 which is about RM47 but has alot of product!
-Doesn't really have a scent!
-Feels good on my acne/ troubled skin!

CONS
-Doesn't have a pump like the 500ml one!
-Contains alcohol but it doesn't feel harsh.

Overall rating: 5/5

Repurchase? : It does it job well and I'm definitely going to get the 500ml one next! >< but I also want       to try their skin mal:gems!

Disclaimer: I read about 3-5 reviews before I actually get the product and what works for me might not work for you. I have dry/combination skin just for your information ^^

Oh yeah I'm trying out the 424 cleansing method that suzy from miss A swears by! I really hope I can clear all my acne ): Feeling quite depressed about it!T.T
