I was happy to hear about this theme. My skin was crying for moisture.

1. The Face Shop Daegwallyeong Fresh Milk Cream - huge tub-300ml!!!! I will use this as a body cream. I love Face Shop stuff and the creams are never a failure or disappointment!
2. Mizon Snail Repair Eye Cream - I have the all-in-three snail cream from Mizon so I think that the eye cream uses similar ingredients. I was on my way to order new eye cream when the spoiler of March BB bag was emailed to me which made me delay my purchase for now. I have opened it and used it ever since. I totally disregard my belief eye cream that I was in the middle of using haha.
3. Ladykin Glow Lipstick (shade will vary) I got #8 fall rose which is a mix shade of pink and beige. I prefer this over an orange shade lipstick (never used) that I got in some previous BB Bag. This will be my favorite lipstick after I finish using my Clio Diamond lipstick.
4. Cosrx Acne Pimple Master Patch - great time to arrive since spring is here and summer is coming which allows for pimpples to appear!
5. Egg Brush cleanser tool - I was so happy to see this in this month as the beauty tool. I have been washing my sponges by hand with cleansing oil, foam cleanser and antibacterial soap. Now I have some help.
6. Urban Dollkiss Velvety Skin Triple Mini M23 BB Cream - good thing mines was in shade M23 natural beige. I think I have more than enough BB cream and this miniature version is a good try-me thing. Those who got the A to Z All in One Cream--I'm very jealous lol.

Another great BB bag Beauteque!

Top 5 Fall/Winter masks 2016

1. DeWyTree Honey Black Moist Mask - This is my favorite new winter mask. I am inspired to make a top 10 favorite winter mask for those that are in search for winter mask sheet. This has top number 1 for me! I had it for more than 1 hour and there was still moisture. I prefer black cotton sheets over white. I just like different things (colors).
2. SNP Animal Otter Aqua Mask - moisturizes and cute (best for guys who don't wanna feel girly because they are using "face masks"). At first I didn't think much about this mask because it dried fast. But the next morning, I still felt the moisture left from the mask on my face. I really did not want to wash my face, ha. Afterwards I think I used it on the wrong side because the prints wear darker on one side.  
3. TonyMoly I'm Real Rice Mask - for brightening - OMG, I love this mask, after 30 minutes of this mask, it was still full of essence and when I took it off, my face was so radiant!!!
4. no:hJ - This brand is definitely new to me and I love the packaging. I like the clear bag to let me see what color the mask sheet is and etc. You know, decorating and stuff. There's a ton of essence (25g worth), but are those 24 K gold specks on my face now once I took off the face mask?  These are good if you need lots of moisture-very hydrating. Feels very organic and natural resources kind of thing, now where do I get more?  
5. My Beauty Diary Huatung - I knew I made the right choice of picking this up when I was in Taiwan this past winter. Very hydrating, tons of essence. I left mines on for 40 minutes! 

TonyMoly Bio EX Multi Cell Energy

TonyMoly Bio EX Multi Cell Energy 120ml

• very milky texture. nice pump packaging

This is recommended for girls in their early 20s who are starting to get into skincare because this can be used as a three step including toner, essence and emulsion.

I don't like the generic cosmetic smell of this product when using it on my face.
It does have a bit of firming and tightening the first two times that I used it.
However, for my combination skin, it takes a bit longer to fully absorb into my skin. I ended up giving this to my younger sister who is in her early-mid-20s.

   

A'PIEU Jelly Marmalade (Doraemon Edition) 5g / #06 Plum (자두)

A'PIEU Jelly Marmalade (Doraemon Edition) 5g / #06 Plum (자두)

     
cute! I love the face that Doraemon made on the plum tint.

Perfect color on the lips for a N23 natural beige shade
The applicator is at an angle so it's better when applying the product onto your lips.
Very watery when touched my lips due to the jelly texture.

My very first tint! It's very tasty. Very pigmented. Stays on even if you eat and drink. I have used the Clio lip tint afterwards and prefer this A'pieu one. 

My coworkers have complimented. This was my favorite lip product during February and March.

Individual reviews coming soon!

goodal Phytorain Murumuru Seed Hydra Gel Cream

goodal Phytorain Murumuru Seed Hydra Gel Cream

Goodal is the natural ingredients skincare portion of club clio.

Overpriced? No.
Moisturizing? Yes.
Gentle? yes
Suitable for sensitive and breakout prone skin? Yes.
Suitable for oily skin? - yes.
Day or night? Both

I love this gel cream over its phytoshine berry brightening emulsion counterpart. It has a weightless feel, absorbs quickly and I think Brazil Nut Seed Oil is my new favorite oil.  It's suppose to have anti-viral, anti-inflammatory and anti-baterical properties. I had extra dry and rashes near my eyes and applying this cream made my skin so soothing and comfortable. Besides the brazil seed nut oil, it also has a blend of murumuru seed butter, capuacu butter, mourera fluviatilis and fluxhydran. It has a cooling effect when touch onto the skin and best for my combination sensitive skin.

Definitely a re-purchase. Thankfully I brought three :)

Hera Cell Essence 125ml

I have been using a year worth of Korean skincare products. I feel safe enough to upgrade to the Hera line. Let's see how 125ml worth of "Hera" cell essence product will make any change. Since I'm close to leaving the 20s, I think I should start to invest in higher end products. Let's hope I get to see some results.

This claims it is for all skin types and is involved in anti-wrinkle, whitening properties.

It came with 60 pieces of cotton pads, but I ended up pouring the product onto my palms and padding it onto my face.

I started to use this during the beginning of 2016. 
I promise Hera that I will never turn to another essence again.
The feel is different if you compare it to SK-2, Mizon, TonyMoly essence.
It is softer and does not irritate the skin.
Once it hits your face, you don't feel denatured alcohol as you do when you put SK-2 on your face.



And then I was introduced to the Aquabolic line in miniatures which I will use during my summer on-the-go.
