Kiehl's Rare Earth Deep Pore Cleansing Masque Review

This product includes Amazonian White Clay. It aims to intensively purify to minimize pores. It is best for normal to oily skin types to eliminate debris and dead surface skin cell accumulation that can clog pores and leave skin dull looking. It has ingredients comes from Marajó Island at the mouth of the Amazon River. It is rich in minerals, minimizes pores.

How to use it?
Firstlt clean your face and then apply on damp skin with your hands until it reaches the thickness that does not show your skin tone. Wait for 15 minutes then rinse it off with lukewarm water. It can make face burn firstly, it is normal it will past couple of minutes later.
I have dry to combination skin however sometimes I have acnes on my face due to toxins and bacteria I think. So I purchased this masque to gey rid off them. First I clean my face with half lemon with sugar on it, peel my face with that. Unless you clean your face properly. Masque minimizes pores and the dirth in your pores causes pimples and acnes.

This masque is quite strong and removes sebum. However it is not good for dry face. It does not do very well job actually, on the other hand good for big pores and oily skin. I won't purchase again because it does not go for so long, like 4 months and it does not improve my skin problems much. But it is really good for pores on nose, it has really efficient on them. You can see the difference even after single use, your nose and around it gets better, less pore less blackheads. You should use twice a week for a good solution additionally.

Maybelline Eyestudio Lasting Drama Gel Eyeliner 24H Black

Hi beauties!
Todays review is about a basic product also my favourite; eyeliner!
I love both; gel, liquid or pencil. However liquid ones can be troublesome and pencil liners are not intense enough. So gel eyeliners are the best for me!
This one is from Maybelline, Eyestudio Lasting Drama Gel Eyeliner.

Resim yazısı ekle
I have the Black one. There is 4 shades in total: Black, Brown, Blue & Pink Diamods.



It comes with a soft bristled brush. Brush is not angled, it is straight and good for thin line. This eyeliner goes for forever like other gel liners. It's easy to use compared to liquid liners.
I like this product pretty much. It is reeeaallly 24 hours lasting. Pigments are fine, texture is good, it covers your skin completely. Texture is kinda good however a bit to intense to apply evenly. Gel gets dry and rough a bit over time. You may need a fixer or base to make texture better. The color is good, not so intensely black, however looks pretty cool.

Pros
-Easy to apply
-Long lasting
-Waterproof
-Good pigments
-Comes with a brush (brush is fairly well)
-Affordable

Cons
-Texture can get dry
-Texture needs some liquid&fixer to have proper consistency

The Face Shop Ink Lipquid Review

Hey everyone!

For the love of lip tints! 

This one is named as "Ink Lipquid" from The Face Shop. Its amount is a bit little, it is 4 grams and costs about 9$. So it is sort of expensive, considering it is quantity.


the face shop ink lipquid 1


I have the shades CR01 (Coral Chu) and RD01 (Apple Red). There is a wide range of shades of this product. It's for lips yes, but it can be used for cheeks also. I love how they look on cheeks, natural and healthy.


the face shop ink lipquid 2


the face shop ink lipquid 3



Coral chu CR01 is a shade which involves orange tones which are not dominant and looks natural. Apple Red RDO1 is more spectacular shade it's reddish as is says, a bit unnatural, bright and nice one.


the face shop ink lipquid 4

And it's super long-lasting like it is not removed completely even after cleansing.

the face shop ink lipquid 5

About moisturize, it does not dry your lips much, however can not say moisturizes neither.


the face shop ink lipquid 6

You can apply it on the morning one coat, it will stay during many ours. If you don't wash, it will stay for 8 hours even. 
Really nice packaging, easy to use, looks de luxe and fancy. It is shaped like a lip gloss more than a tint actually, same application tip with glosses. And it looks like a slender laboratory tube, I think so cool.
About fragrance, it smells nice, a bit sweet taste, not so dominant.
I love everything about it except its quantity! I really feel like I will consume them in a month!

Missha Signature Glam Art Rouge Review


This is Signature Glam Art Rouge from Missha.
It has SPF 15 and PA+.
I have shades  SBR601 and SPK105.
This lipstick has many shade options.
It costs 18$.

Missha Signature Glam Art Rouge Review

Missha Signature Glam Art Rouge Review

It has rich & even color. Contains Sweet Almond Peptide, Marine Collagen, and 7 Jewelry 
ingredients (Amethyst, Tourmaline, Pearl, Platinum, Diamond, Rub, and Inca Rose Powder) to express a glamorous color and fill the fine lines on lips as Missha claims. It aims to be moisturizing and color sustaining.


Missha Signature Glam Art Rouge Review

It's really mousturizing and has good pigmentation. It's not like perfect silky finish however it does not dehydrates too. Color options are pretty wide and nice.
I usually wear it one layer, lips look natural and colored at the same time. It does not have any noticable fragrance or smell.

Missha Signature Glam Art Rouge Review

 I like the SBR601 color much. SPK105 is kinda orange, SPK601 has much brown and nude undertones. SPK105 is a bit unnatural but dashy.


Missha Signature Glam Art Rouge Review


They've changed the packaging lastly, however older one was better I think. Always a fan of floral design!

Finally this one is a good lipstick. Good colors, high-toned pigmentation, kinda moisturizing, not long-lasting on the other hand it stays like 3-4 hours well. Not a favourite one, but good for the price.

Lancome Génifique Soleil Skin Youth UV Protector Review

Hi pretties!

This one of my favourite sun protectors.
The elegant and efficient Lancome Génifique Soleil Skin Youth UV Protector 30 SPF.



It costs 30$ and its quantity is 150 ml.
 It has options that have more SPF also.
 This is the body version, there is face version of it too.




It has a nice floral fragrance, I like it very much. As a typical sign of Lancome line, the fragrance is intense. The texture is creamy, a bit greasy. It gives a whitened, radiant, mouisturized look and satin finish. I have dry skin therefore this sun cream really fits me. It can be seen as a bit heavy for oily skin however the texture is between lotion and cream it is not that weighty.




It protects from sun very well. It settles and long-wearing. My skin is tend to be sensitive and this product does not irritate me even a little. On the other hand my mum has sensitive and freckled skin, and this cream burned her face a bit.


Finally, I like this one. Smells pretty, long-lasting and elegant product.



Skin79 Super Plus Beblesh Balm Triple Functions (Hot Pink) Review

Hi Gurls!

This is Skin79 Super+ Beblesh Balm Triple Functions in Hot Pink.

This product costs 20$ and it contains 40g.

skin79 beblesh balm



skin79 beblesh balm


BB stands for Beblesh Balm. This bb cream claims to be whitening, UV protecting SPF 25 PA++ and wrinkle improvement. It is sold in only one shade. By Adenosine and Arbutin ingredients which are effective in whitening, wrinkles improvement cultivate more bright and elastic skin.


skin79 beblesh balm

Package is practical & easy to use. Texture is a little bit solid. It can be applied with brush, sponge or finger well.

skin79 beblesh balm
skin79 beblesh balm


Shade is a bit grayish so don't like that. Its coverage is medium, can not be considered as bad. It covers well however I don't like the finishing color. Fragrance is pretty and floral. It gives a dewy, glowy look and it's whitening. It is produced in one shade so not suitable for medium to dark skin tones. Beauty spot is that is affordable. It stays like 3-4 hours on your face and then it is being absorbed somewhat therefore it is creamy, does not settles much.



skin79 beblesh balm


Not purchasing again but not a bad product though. I don't use it everyday & not in love though it may be a good choice thanks to quick application, good smell and moderate coverage.

IOPE Air Cushion XP C21 Review

Hi guys,

This review is about IOPE's Air Cushion XP.

iope air cushion

It is 40$. Comes with a refill, so total weight 15+15 gr.
It is best-seller in Korea.
It has SPF 50+ and PA+++.






iope air cushion

This product is true its name: it feels like air, it is sweat-proof, looks natural & flawless.
It is designed in a shape which is pretty popular in Korea and spreading in worldwide.
It looks like a powdercase however it is bigger and thicker. You can apply easily in anywhere, this concept is getting indispensable after you use it. You reapply anytime you want and it does not get cakey.








iope air cushion



I bought the C 21 shade. There is three options C for coverage, N for natural, S for shimmer.
And two shades 21(light) 23(slightly darker). This two shades still light for many people because IOPE is produced for Asian market. If you are interested in, Amore Pacific produces other cushions which have more shade options. Amore Pacific is the main brand which produces IOPE too.

Love the color, it's light also it looks natural, it is not unnaturally white. I like pink based foundations generally, this one does not involve pink color in it nevertheless it gives fresh, health, pretty look, so love it. It settles well, you feel you have a protector & exclusive layer on your face. It is not so glowy or matte, it is kinda semi-matte.







iope air cushion


It covers redness, blemishes very well. It is sort of long lasting product, reapplying during day could be better also. Coverage is really good and natural. It really carries the level of a cushion to top-end.

Repurchasing absolutely!

Yves Saint Laurent Rouge Volupté Review

Hi beauties,

This review is about YSL's absolute beauty rouge, Rouge Volupté.


Rouge Volupté 1

This is shade 3 Ultimate Beige. It costs 36$.

Rouge VoluptéIt is really a good product, what a lipstick supposed to be . It is moisturizing, pigments are excellent, texture is silky, medium-lasting, also tasty, ahaha keeping this part for my own sake.



I generally use it with a slight application, which looks like natural lip itself. I received many compliments about that, the colour is a little bit browny yes, but if you do not apply to much, just a one touch; it gives a natural yet coloured well, glamorous, nude-brown-pink mixed look.

Rouge Voupté 3

When it applied fully, it covers anything like roughness and dryness. Just a little bit glowy (not like glitter or gloss, not matte though), moisturized, well coloured, perfect look. If you do not touch during five minutes after application, it settles and lasts long.

Rouge Volupté 4

You can wear it various options as seen on swatches, it can look like your own lip, or daily makeup, even can be a part of perfectionist makeup.

Rouge Volupté 5

I am literally in love with this hence there is not much to say. Repurchase again!

Chanel Vitalumiére Aqua Foundation Review

Hi Guys!

This is a review of Chanel Vitalumiére Aqua Foundation. Which claims Ultra-Light Skin Perfecting Makeup.

This product requires SPF 15. It is very light and natural. It comes with 8 shades. I chose the 12 Beige Rose one. It just like a "second-skin", as the purpose of the product. It is 47$ and 30 ml.




It has a fancy floral scent, however it is pretty intense, some may be irritated. I really like the scent, I am keen on floral-scented foundations guess :)
It has a very light texture. It feels nice when you wear. Like there is very thin layer on your face, not irritating, you even forgot you have it on your face.

Chanel Vitalumiére Aqua

It has a nice looking package,  though it is plastic and does not worth the price. And it is opaque so you can not see how much product left. Also it is hard to squeeze the bottle and have the product how much you want. Sometimes it comes a little and you want more, then you squeeze and so much product comes out.


Chanel Vitalumiére Aqua

The texture resolves when not used. You should shake well every time. Yet it is not well mixed up enough like the first condition of the product.


Chanel Vitalumiére Aqua

It covers the blemishes, it has medium coverage and really nice pinky color. I choose pink-based one. There is yellow-based shades also. This pinky color is my fave property of a foundation. It looks healthy, glowy, glamorous. It is water-based also it is non-drying. Hence it is compatible for any skin type, best for oily and combination.

Chanel Vitalumiére Aqua


Some people says the alcohol in it is harmful. I did not have any irritations or redness. Yet may be some results may occur in the long run. Here is the ingredients:

Active Ingredients: Octinoxate 6%; Titanium Dioxide 5.6%; Other Ingredients: Water, Methyl Trimethicone, Alcohol, Dimethicone, Phenyl Trimethicone, Talc, Butylene Glycol, Isododecane, Polymethylsilsesquioxane, Acrylates/Polytrimethylsiloxymethacrylate Copolymer, Polymethyl Methacrylate, PEG-10 Dimethicone, Stearic Acid, Dimethicone/PEG-10/15 Crosspolymer, Alumina, Aluminum Hydroxide, Phenoxyethanol, C9-15 Fluoroalcohol Phosphate, Magnesium Sulfate, Parfum (Fragrance), Nelumbo Nucifera Flower Water, Methylparaben, Triethoxycaprylylsilane, Sodium Hyaluronate, Silica, Tocopheryl Acetate, Dipropylene Glycol, Polyurethane-15, BHT, Laminaria Digitata Extract, Tocopherol, Propylparaben, Ethylparaben May Contain: Ultramarines, Iron Oxides, Titanium Dioxide, Mica
