Beauty & Fashion Wishlist #1

Girls want quite a lot, don't they? Well this is my wish list for this month, its too long to wait for special occasions just to make a wish list. xD

1. Foreo Luna Mini - Magenta or Petal Pink £99

This product was featured in SecretLifeOfABioNerd's most recent video, i'm curious as to how it varies to a cleansing brush. ^^ Although I don't own a electronic cleansing brush, I think this will be more gentle and suitable for my skin.


2. Innisfree - Mineral Shading £8.20

I seriously need to get a new bronzer before I run out. >.< This one caught my eye, however I can't find any reviews or swatches. >.<


3. NYX - The Curve Liner £14

I really like the fine tip and curve of the eyeliner. ^_^

 

4. IZZI Slim iPhone 5 Camera Case 4 in 1 Lens - White £69.99

I've seen so many Youtubers with this case! I love the different lens and it great since I take a lot of photos! 


5. Jouer Anti-Blemish Matte Primer £29

Much much in need of a good primer, that helps to keep me matte. >.< This is helps to prevent blemishes too, so its a bonus. 


6. Missguided Graphic Checked Shirt £24.99

Not usually my style, but i've been loving the grid and checked trend this season~ ^^ 


7. Leather Tote Bag

I've been eying this for ages but i can't decided which colour to get. >.< Maybe I should purchase both hehe~


Whats on your wish list for this month? ^_^

KPop Fashion - TTS Adrenaline Tartan Outfit

Tartan is so on trend for 2014 - I keep seeing it everywhere! Especially in the music scene. The outfits that caught my eye the most are from TTS's Adrenaline performance. I love their outfits! - its edgy yet elegant. I love the contrast of black and red and how they paired a sheer chiffon blouse with tartan. Loads of interesting textures + patterns.My favourite outfit is probably Tiffany's, although I am more likely to wear Taeyeon's. >w< I shall do some inspired kpop fashion posts soon, when I have time. ^_^ Its been a while since i've done one. 




You can watch the performance here~


What trend/outfit have you been liking this month? ^__^

Rohto Hada Labo Gokujyun Super Hyaluronic Acid Moisturising Liquid Makeup Remover Review





The weather change in the UK is messing up my skin badly! >.< First a acne party, now dry skin. .__. I opted for Hada Labo's makeup remover as I keep seeing Jun Ji Hyun's Hada Labo commercials (so why not xD) and because it contains Super Hyaluronic Acid. SHA "hydrates and nourishes the skin for smooth, radiant and crystal-clear skin. it creates a moisture locking shield to help preserve skin's optimum moisture balance" - http://www.hadalabo.com

This makeup remover is a cleansing liquid; Hada Labo also does a cleansing oil which is in a yellow bottle. The makeup remover is a water based, so it is mineral oils free. Its also does not contain colorants, alcohol or fragrances. So its great for those with sensitive skin. It has a runny gel consistency. The product is a transparent colour, not blue. It just has a blue bottle ^^


Its easy to use; you simply dispense 1-2 pumps onto your hands, then apply it onto a dry face and massage your face to melt and remove your make up. Then wash of the makeup remover with water and repeat it again. You will need to wash your face at least twice to remove all traces of makeup. Once will not be enough (as shown in the photos below). I think this is due to the gentle nature of the makeup remover.


It does remove makeup effectively, however I find that it doesn't remover mascara very well. Its gentle and does not leave my skin feeling dry. In fact it does feel slightly more hydrated. I like that it doesn't leave my face feeling greasy afterwards too. It didn't irritate my acne or cause further breakouts which is great!

Pros:

  • Does not contain minerals oils, colorants, alcohol or fragrances
  • Easy to use
  • Hygienic packaging
  • Gentle
  • Great amount of product, will last for 3 months or more
  • Didn't cause further breakouts
  • Does not leave skin feeling dry afterwards

Cons:

  • Can be expensive if you purchase this outside of Japan. On Amazon UK, this was sold for £25!
  • Does not remove mascara very well
  • Requires double cleansing

Rating: 7/10

Would I repurchase?

Maybe, the makeup remover isn't the best. It does remove majority of my makeup, its gentle and retains the moisture in my skin. However my makeup is usually quite heavy since I build up my foundation or BB cream to hide my acne and scars, so it takes longer for me to fully remove everything. >.<

Would I recommend it?

If you don't mind double cleansing, I think this is great for those that wear light make and have sensitive skin~ ^^ 

Have you tried any Hada Labo products? ^^

Mizon Trouble Clinic Acence Blemish Out Pink Spot 30ml Review




I purchased this along with the Snail Recovery Cream a while ago, back when I was recovering from a breakout. I rediscovered this product again, since my face decided to have a massive breakout right before school starts. When I say massive, I literally mean it. Yayy my face is having an acne party again ~sigh~ ;c

Now you may be confused as to what this product does by it's name. It's a liquid and powder spot treatment that helps to clear spots by reducing redness and swelling. The yellow liquid helps to kill bacteria, whilst the pink powder reliefs redness and reduces the swelling.

The first thing you will notice when you open the bottle, is the smell. It has a strong herbal smell, it will fade away. I personally like it. ^^ To use the product, you simply dip a Q-tip straight into the bottle and then pull it out. The bottle is designed well for that purpose; the opening is small, but big enough to let a Q-tip pass through. Make sure that the bottle has not been shaken, the layers need to be separate because the yellow liquid first disinfects the Q-tip and wets the Q-tip so that the pink powder can grab onto it. If however the bottle was shaken (like mine, when it arrived through the post .__.), just place the bottle somewhere still and let the powder to settle. It does take some time.

This is what the Q-tip will look like~



It is recommend to use this at night, and then wash it off when you wake up. I use this during daytime as well; on days that I go out and sometimes after school. This product helps to dry up small spots in 4-5 days. However if you have some big spots like me >.< it does requires extra days~

This product really does help my acne heal a lot faster; without it, mine can take up to 2/3 weeks before its gone. So this is one of my holy grail products.

Pros:

  • Reduces redness
  • Reduces swelling of spots
  • Helps spots heal faster
  • Affordable

Cons:

  • Can take a while for powder to settle, if bottle is shaken

Rating: 9/10

Would I repurchase?

Yes! As mentioned above, it is one of my holy grail products~ ^__^

Would I recommend it?

Definitely! It does help spots heal faster. Really great for sudden breakouts. >.<

Do you have an holy grail products that help to clear acne? Share them with me in me comments! :DDD
