Summertime means eating alot of treats and laying around!

1. HolikaHolika Cover Hiding Concealer No. 2-  I remember getting the saem concealer within this year of BB bags and liked it so hopefully this one doesn't disappoint because I'm used to liquid concealer so look forward to future reviews on this product.
2. The Saem - Chocopie Hand Cream - I'm looking forward to taking this out of my bag and trick people in thinking that this is a hand cream instead of a cookie haha.
3. SkinFood Black Sugar Mask - I finally got my hands on this product. This is one of those products where I wanted to try but didn't want to buy the full-sized product if I didn't like it.
4. HolikaHolika Dessert Time Lip Balm - Lemon - I don't like the favor of Lemon so I will be giving this away to my sister, but lip balms are best to put in your handbag during the summer to avoid chapped lips.
5. PureDerm Vital Radiance Hair Mask - Honey - I'm glad I got Honey this time. I have used this before from Beauteque and these make your hair feels reaqlly nice and smooth but I wouldn't go out and buy the full size because I rather buy conditioner and rinse it out after 5 minutes instead of waiting in the shower for 15 minutes for this product to do its job.
6. Beauty Blending Sponge in Pink - Just in time because I was about to throw out my Sephora blending sponge.

Individual reviews coming soon!

MilkyDress SOS Blemish Cream

MilkyDress SOS Blemish Cream - Perfect cream for the start of summer when pimples start coming out and pollen in is in air for allergy sufferers.

Very light weight cream but can't say that I love it.
Thankfully, there isn't much of a scent but it doesn't help with blemishes much. For 12ml of product, I didn't really see much change, but it's good for sensitive skin.

   

Missha Time Revolution The First Treatment Essence

I really wanted to see if this really is a dupe compared to the SK-II essence since it was my first essence and now I want to venture out to the other brands. So I finally brought a bottle of this Missha Time Revolution. My expectations wasn't high because Missha products usually doesn't work for my skin, and in my past experiences, the ones that surprises me are the ones that I have low expectations for. SK-II didn't do it for me in the past, so I wasn't expecting much here either. I believe this is the new renovated technology that contains "Zyosys" which is a fermented yeast extract.

 

Remember to twist this bottle instead of pulling it open.
You have to shake the bottle a bit to get the product out.
It's unscented, surprising it didn't burn my sensitive skin. To be honest, I slowly put the cotton pad onto my skin because I was waiting for the burn but it didn't come. Definitely a plus for me cause I don't see alcohol in the ingredient list.
It's unscented-I was expecting a bit of a floral scent, but I guess it's fragrance-free.
It dried pretty quickly into the skin.
Boy did my skin felt firm afterwards!
It has only been half a month and I have already used up half of the bottle - which is consider a favorite product for me because I get picky with products.

Moisturizing - no
Smoothing - yes
Soothing - yes
Balancing Sebum Level - yes
Improve skin tone - yes
Firming - YES
Wrinkle repairing - yes
Boasting - yes

I will be re-purchasing this product in the future if I run out of essence.

SULWHASOO Timetreasure Renovating Eye Cream

Wonderful cream for dry skin, just not for me.

If you can splurge, get this if you want a moisturizing cream.
For fine lines and wrinkles, this won't do.
I prefer this over the Sulwhasoo Ginseng eye cream.
This gave me milia and redness and itchness, so I am happy that I brought the 10 samples instead of the full-sized product.


    

Top 5 Spring sheet masks

I did one last season and I'm picking the next 5 for spring/summer. I go through about 10-20 sheet masks per month and went through 60 sheet masks to make this countdown of 5 of my favorites. In order to make it to my favorites, the sheet masks must be ok for sensitive skin and moisturizing (full essence). I tend to like to keep a sheet mask on for 30-60 minutes. Read below for my favs:

1. Yadah Brightening Mask Pack - you know when you take out the cotton sheet mask out of the mask and the essence feels like it's glued onto the sheet instead of dripping everywhere from the pouch to your face-well this one didn't. It was great for my sensitive skin and it carried actual lime fruit extract! Plus I love the packaging!
2. PreLab Aqua - I guess I have a thing for semi-collagen feeling sheet masks that are able to keep my face moisturized for a hour. Packaging is cute.
3. Face Shop Real Nature Lotus - Hydrating - I wasn't expecting much from the Face Shop, boy was I in for a surprise! This is more of a creamy type instead of an essence type of a mask. The website claims that, "The mask sheet drenched in serum with the pure energy of Lotus Flower moisturizes and gives tired, rough skin a boost of radiance. (Drenched in a smooth serum with oil / Formula without added parabens)."
   
4. LoveMore - Loofah and Aloe Vera Hydrating Mask - Very hydrating and the packaging inside is interesting because they have a double layer packaging which keeps the moisture within the sheet mask. I had the mask on for about a hour and I convinced my aunt in Taiwan to buy me the combo box of the brand which consist of al the "flavors" in this brand.     
5. Dr.G Aqua Collagen Mask - I was coming back from a hot and humid shopping morning and ripped this open when I got home. It calm down my redness and inflammation and last well over a hour. It is a gel collagen mask instead of the regular cotton ones so it locks the moisture in instead of having it drip down your neck constantly. Absolute favorite of mine. I brought two boxes of this so it will last me the entire summer.
