THE FACE SHOP HIMANGO LOVELY MOISTURIZING MANGO BODY LOTION 250 ml



Wonderful Moisturizer

 Ok, I went out on a whim and figured I would buy some lotion. I was scared it would not work on my skin since I had issues in the past with lotions. The lotions were either to potent with smell and were just smell or they were just to greasy. However, for this lotion,  I tested it out first with the tester they had. Since I was iffy about it. I liked it and I bought it. I figured the shower gel (see post about the shower gel) worked great so maybe this lotion will do the same. I was not disappointed at all. A little goes a long way. This lotion was not greasy, sticky nor did it make my hands feel yuck. It was the complete opposite. Made my hands so soft and they felt great. I tested the durablility of the moister. I washed my hands various times. Each time they stayed soft. This is definitely a keeper. The aroma is so pleasant. The smell is mangos and its not so strong that its over bearing. The aroma is just right.

The Face Shop Himango Lovely Moisturizing Mango Shower Gel 250ml




Excellent Shower Gel

 

As promised, here is the Shower gel that I bought with my shampoo and conditioner. If you haven’t read about The Face Shop Keratin Couple, you must. You will be amazed on what I found. Ok, now back to the shower gel. I have really dry skin and nothing (in US) seemed to help. So when I seen this, I thought it’s worth the risk. I rushed home took a shower. I used a shower ball. I put 3 pumps on the puff it was soo soapy that I knew I had to cut back the next go around. Immediately, I noticed my skin was soft to the touch and I did not even moisturize after. The fragrance is so lovely. It’s a mango fresh scent and boy o' boy does it smell great!! For my skin, it stayed hydrated and was not dried out within an hour like it used to be from other products. Ok I probably should moisturize but I had to try it out. It passed with flying colors. They also make the same item but lotion. How great is that a pair! Awesome!! Quick note use this with the Etude HouseKnow your body soft cream scrub. Your body will be in heaven!! I wrote about the scrub check it out!!

The Face Shop Keratin Intensive Conditioner 300ml



Greatest Conditioner Ever!

 
When I bought the shampoo(see blog about the shampoo) I had to have the conditioner. You know, the pair! After I had washed my hair with the shampoo which is awesome. I used the conditioner and it made my hair so silky soft. I thought I was dreaming. Even after I blow dried my hair and now its every day it stays shiny, silky smooth. I love to mess with my hair now. Just to feel the softness of it. My hair color is naturaly dark brown but I dye it burgundy so you can imagine how often I have to dye my hair to keep this color. Even after dying my hair it does not strip the color out. Like many US products I have used. I still have the color in my hair and it has been a month or so. I will have to dye it soon my roots are starting to show. No worries anymore on how my hair will look since I have this combination.  I also tell others so they can have beautiful hair. If they buy it great if not at least I told them. My co-workers are all shocked on how my hair is so silky smooth and yes shiny too. I dont think i will ever change my hair products. Sigh of relief no more wasting money.

Here is what The face shop said about it

The Face Shop Keratin Intensive Shampoo 300ML



Excellent for damaged hair

Since I dye my hair and out it through alot it started to have dead ends and looked extremely unhealthy. I was at Huge Mart which is a International market. I seen the Face shop there. Now I did look up The Face shop and wanted the cherry blossom stuff they had. But what I found out was this store did not have it. It was very small in size so I told her what I needed. She pointed out this shampoo. I asked her if she had the Conditioner and she did. I was soo nervious hoping this would actually work on my hair. When I got home, the first thing I did was shower(I bought body wasg/gel also;blog later about it) immediatly I could tell it made my hair very soft and the conditioner was just as awesome. It also removed the dandruff particles I had. Something I found American products cant do unless they damage your hair. Now that I am feeling great. I blow dried my hair something I never do. But I wanted to see what it would do. It made my hair so shiney, silky smooth. I will definetly keep these as my new hair products. You only use the amount you need for your hair.

TONYMOLY MINIATURE Tony Tint #1 Cherry Pink



Red tint you see


I didnt want to wear lipstick anymore so I decided to buy and try this out. I placed it in the middle of my lips. It tinted my lips a red color. But to get the desired color I wanted, I had to wait between coats for it to dry. I would say 3 minutes or so. Because the tint is liquid. The wand is ok the tint was ok but as I said I had to keep applying to get that red tint I wanted. I could tell it dried out my lips a bit. So to prevent dried lips I got my handy dandy kissfull lips care and placed this on my lips. BAM! no more dried lips and i now had gorgious tinted lips. I will defintely do more tints but I dont think I will get this one again.

As always thank you for reading, share and see you next blog

ETUDE HOUSE Kissfull Lip Care Lip Scrub 10g



Lovely lips scrubbed clean

This lip scrub is awesome. When you first apply it, you can feel the granials scrubbing away the dead skin. You can use your finger or just rub your lips together. I do either depending on your preference. You dont have to use alot. With this a little does go a long way. If you get it in your mouth it will taste sour but the smell is lemony. After I scrubbed my lips, I could tell right away they were soft. I washed the stuff off with luke warm water. Then I put on the Etude House kissfull lip care #2 Strawberry. This was a wonderful combination. If your wondering about the lip care #2 Strawberry I wrote about it in my blog. Check it out.

New Coating magic straight cream Men's/Women’s Hair coating Straightening Cream.Korea



Straight and Silky

6/20/13 I bought this for my daughter who has really curly hair. There are no English intrsuctions. So I did what any other mother would do. I google searched for the instructions and yay for google! I followed the instructions to a T. Now my daugter has straight hair. I must admit I may have skipped a step accidently. But we will see. The process is very simple and it does take time to do.The instructions stated she had to have clean hair then place the cream wait about 15 minutes then I placed the liquid (I think she was supposed to wash out the cream.Oops) and after that I placed the liquid. Waited 10 then more liquid waited 10 and now time to rinse all the stuff out her hair. Here were her results.Picture before and after.


With Curly Hair


Now for the straight hair

She loved how it turned out.

ETUDE HOUSE- Know Your Body Soft Cream Scrub 150ml

The perfect silkiness a woman needs



6/5/13 I was excited to know Korea made body scrub. I read the directions and it stated to use with warm water. So, I decided to go ahead and try it. I placed a half dollar size on my hand and started to scrub my body. I was shocked on how soft & thick  the consistancy was. Wherever I placed to exfoliate it turned my skin a milky white color. It had a  brightenning effect to it.. I do have to say that the tiny granials were not harsh. I could feel it removing the dead skin .Leaving my skin silky smooth all over. The fragrance is fruity or floral smell. It smells really nice. I would say to use the body scrub  2x a week. The instructions do state not to use it on your face.

Ingredients: Herb extract, lavender, chamomile, centelle asiatica, marshmallow, lemon verbena and aloe

Lioele- Carry Me Blusher #1 - Pink Cheek



The perfect match



6/5/13 my second purchase. I bought Lioele- Carry Me Blusher #1 - Pink Cheek (It’s powder form). I figured it was cute and easy to use. No more mess, haggling with a blush brush. The great thing about it is, you can carry it everywhere without worrying about it clumping. The first thing I noticed was the package. It was in a small size box. The package was cute it had a little white carriage. I didn’t expect it to be small. It’s about 5g. When I opened it I noticed there was a small circle mirror on top of the blusher. Hmm, I thought interesting. I proceeded to pull the lid off and there was a cute white little puff sticking up. By this point I am getting excited to see how this works. So I tried to put some on my cheeks but nothing came out. Yep, I had to unscrew the puff lid and under the puff lid there was a piece of circle plastic that I forgot to remove. Ok, now that I have it removed, I screwed the lid back on. Now I am ready to try again. I proceeded to shake the blush but this time I used my hand to make sure there was color coming out. There was color. Yay! That means I did it right. Now I can put it on my cheeks. I noticed, once I put the color on my cheeks it was not to dark but its light enough to give that innocent look. If you like darker, the more you blush on the darker it will get. But I think that’s with any color.

Lioele says: Lioele Carry Me Blusher adds a healthy pink/peach color to your face using this blusher. Features double coated sheer loose powder, soft texture, long lasting silky powder, natural shades of pink/peach and a healthy glow. Whether you opt for a soft natural pink or a healthy peach glow, this satin powder blush will brighten your face and accentuate your features.

Ingredients: Talc, Mica, Silica, Disostearyl Malate, Mineral Oil, D&C Red #7 CA Lake, Zinc Stearate, MEthyl Paraben, Propyl Paraben, FD&C Yellow #5 AL Lake, Dimethicone, MAY CONTAIN [+/-]: Titanium Dioxide, Iron Oxide Black, Iron Oxide Yellow

Mizon Pore Refine Deep Cleansing Foam - 120ml



Wonderful for my oily skin

 On 6/2/13 i bought the above product. This would be my first of many Korean products. I searched and searched to find what would actually work for my skin. After I read all about what this does I had to buy it. The first time I used it, I noticed a tingeling fresh minty sensation on my skin. Avoid the eyes because it does burn. Lol! I actually didnt and this is how I can tell you it does burn. Ok now on to how I applied it to my skin. I wet my hands in order to wet my face. I applied a dime size amount on my left hand and rub both hands together to get some lather going and to warm up the cleanser. After I did this I applied it to my face all over(again please avoid eye area) then washed it off with warm water. I felt right away the cleansing of my skin and the oilyness was gone. After a months use I noticed my skin was brighter and better looking than I ever expected. I dont have oily skin anymore and since using this product it has kept it under control. I also noticed that if acne is appearing it dried them up. So for me this was a plus. I dont get alot but when I do its bothersome. I forgot to mention I also placed the cleanser on my kneck area as well. I figured it wouldnt hurt.  Here is the description Mizon gives
