The Wonder Pore

Hi Beautiful! Today I wanna introduce to all of you one of my loves. It's the etude house 
"Wonder Pore"
I have oily to combination skin and in summer my "T Zone" gets super oily which is very annoying. My face looks greasy so I always carrying tons of blotting paper on my bag to remove the excess oils that my pores producing through out the day.
But while I'm strolling the mall I saw my favorite pink makeup store so I decided to see what's new which I always do.
Suddenly this huge blue jar captured my eyes and it says wonder pore.. wondering what does it do...?!




It does:
Deep cleanses pores
Maintain ph 4.5 
Control large amount of the sebum
Minimize the appearance of pores
Refine the skin tone
Keep the elasticity of the pores 
Moisturize inside and out of the skin

So question does it work?
Well, my experience, my face doesn't look so greasy anymore but it's still have some oiliness. And my acne are starting to shrink which is good for me.. I'm not only using this alone, I'm pairing this with moisturizer, serum and essence day and night.
When I bought this product I tested it to see how it works alone, so a apply it on my face and leave it for about 8 hrs. and my face doesn't look so greasy, it's still have some shine but not greasy shine.



It's 500ml for 15,000 Korean won. It's worth buying so I recommend this to those people who have oily to combination skin, blackheads and whiteheads and acne prone. Use this as Toner before moisturizer. Softly rub it around your face in circular motion and let it dried for a while then apply the rest of your skin care.
Hope it helps and thank you for reading.

THE CHOCOLATE MAKES YOU MORE SWEET AND DEEP


Hello Ladies! Today I'll review the Skin Food eye shadow palette called 
"The Chocolate Makes You More Sweet and Deep"
I love the colors that comes with this palette, it's really a good neutral shades for fall. I love soft brown smokey eye in autumn seasons. And this palette reminds me of the autumn leaves with a crispy sound when you jump on it.. I hope it make sense.. ^.^
It's available in 2 shades 
I bought the number 2 which is the warm brown choco. It has four shades 3 eye shadows and 1 gel liner. 

I think it's like a satin finish, slightly powdery and you have to keep building it. Make sure you wearing an eye primer underneath it. 



This is what is looks like...
highlighter - soft beige
soft light brown with slightly sheen
chocolate brown
dark brown eyeliner
the palette comes with a dual sided brush, a liner brush and a sponge tip applicator..

the swatches
The colors are really pretty in the pan but it's hard to build in the eyes. There's a lot of dupes for these colors,  it's hard to tell how long it will stay on your eyes but if you use eye primer it might stay longer. It costs 14,000 Korean won. 


Etude House ''Look at My Eyes'' Eye shadow


            Hello beautiful readers! Today I wanted to show you all the Etude House Look at my eyes eye shadow.
I believe these are their new eye shadows and It's much more better and pigmented compare to the previous ones. Most of Korean eye shadows are glittery maybe it's because Korean girls loves sparkling eyes.. ^v^
