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.

Nature Republic: Fiji clean nose pack

Fiji clean nose pack 3 step system (peel off)

Hi everyone, today i will show you the sebum control peel off nose pack from nature republic.

I have a combination and sensitive skin. I always want to remove my blackheads on my nose so I keep trying to use different brands of blackhead remover. I used to use the sticker type but I don't find it very useful at all, it don't get much blackhead or white heads. So when i saw this product in NR store I felt interested and bought it. So this is what happend.... 

see those blackheads? I wash my face with warm water then  I  applied the  step 1 toner

apply the Step 1 Toner to your dry clean nose. 

Let your pores absorb the toner then apply the next step.

Fiji clean nose pack (step 2)

Apply a generous amount of step 2 sebum control pack (peel off) to your nose and wait until it totally dries then peel it off.

after removing the step 2 Apply a pea size amount of the step 3 (pore tightening serum) to close the pores.

this is the shot after i used the products.
I'm using it twice a week.

It costs 7,700 won for the entire set. It's a good product and  I need less than an hour by doing this procedure.
Step 1 toner - 30 ml.
Step 2 peel off - 50ml
Step 3 serum - 30ml

Nature Republic: Smooth Lip Cream

Hi everyone today I wanna share to all of you my feelings about  a  korean product named "Nature Republic."
Here, I only own 3 colors of this line called "Smooth Lip  Cream. But as you see the above picture I am using the red one which I don't own (# 3 smooth cherry), it's my mom's.
But I gave it 4.5 because it's pigmented like wow.
It's a very rich lipgloss I've ever tried.
I bought it online when they are on sale for 3,850 won, but the regular price was 5,500 won.

the bad thing about this product was it doesn't have a name on the case.
from the top smooth rose a coral color, smooth berry a pinkish color, last the smooth sugar a nude color.




Here's the swatches
(On the left) smooth sugar, smooth berry, smooth rose.

                

I just found out that they discontinued the smooth berry and smooth rose.
