The Face Shop - Real Nature Mask Review

There are 15 Real Nature Mask from The Face Shop.

Pomegranate, Blueberry, Acai berry, Lemon, Rice, Olive, Honey, Avocado, Kelp, Mung Bean, Red Ginseng, Cucumber, Aloe, Bamboo & Green Tea

REVIEW TIME

I don't always apply toner (even though I have oily/combo skin). My skin now has been less oily than it has been compared to a year ago. I believe the reason they want us to use the toner before applying the mask is because the essence from the mask can easily absorb more into the skin.

I have never used face masks before and saw these. So I decided to try them out when I needed a "pick me up" or when I felt like multitasking (eg, putting on a mask while watching a movie or doing homework online, etc).

Out of curiosity does anybody put it on overnight? Or longer than intended? I usually leave mines on for 15mins (maybe 30mins if I forget) but no longer than that. Too much or too little nutrition to the skin is bad for you. So I wonder if anyone has left it on overnight before? 

This mask itself is very moisturizing. The essence in the mask sheet that is left behind after removing the mask from the pack is more than enough for me to wipe the excess from the pack (after removing the mask from the packet) to my neck and maybe to my hands.

Although I haven't used all 15 kinds of them. I think the scent on most is not as heavy on some as the others. It's not a bad smell either.

Should I do a separate review for each of them? 

Comment my post and let me know.

I bought these on amazon, but you can also find them on ebay for cheaper sometimes or amazon.

Laneige BB Cushion Pore Control

With all the craze of the new BB cushions. I decided to try this out. The exact launch date of Laneige BB cushion was on May 1st.  So it hasn't been in he market long.

Laneige has released three different types of their BB Cushion so far.

In chronological order of release date we have the:

- Laneige Snow BB Soothing Cushion (Discontinued) 

- Laneige BB Cushion Whitening 

- Laneige BB Cushion Pore Control

I haven't tried the other two yet, but the pore control BB cushion has a
*Matte finish, higher coverage, pore controlling element and long lasting property (better for oily skin).

My first impression

FREAKING AWESOME!!! From the coverage to the consistency etc. I love that it's SPF 50 too ^^ Pretty sweet!! :)

Color range

The only available colors in Korea is from brightest to darkest, 13, 14, and 21 Natural Beige (which I bought). I'm not sure if they will come out with more shade selections but I would hope and assume so).

I bought this in #21 and it is sadly a bit light for my NC25 skin. HOWEVER! If you are NC20 you can pull this off, I can't wait till winter to wear it around.

Consistency

The interesting thing is that it has a cooling sensation. It refreshing on your skin (but the cooling feeling doesn't stays on for awhile, about 5 seconds or so). It's not necessarily light weight but it totally depends on whether you're using a light hand or not. If you layer it on or use more than what would be necessary, then it really felt heavy and uncomfortable on the skin. So a sheer layer to the face would make it feel light and weightless. 

Coverage

Medium to high. It's definitely buildable but I don't want to recommend you to layer on more. There's a possibility of getting into fine lines or being caked up when it's applied more than twice layers. But a single layer provides you just enough coverage that gets you satisfied. I suggest you incorporate with a concealer if needed.

Plus it's summer so why do we want to add layers to our face?

How long does it stay?

It's pretty long lasting that I've noticed. It doesn't become cakey as far as I noticed either. But tt's summer and I haven't experienced any 100F degree weather so we will see.

3 Concept Eyes (3CE) Nursing Cream Review!!

With no preservatives it contains argan oil, olive oil and palm tree seed butter extracted from murumuru trees grown in clean areas.

It says it is recommended:

• If you have dry skin (If you have oily skin you can use it too! I did!! LOL)
• If your skin easily dries out
• If you want glowing, dewy makeup

Uses of Nursing Cream:

• As a nutritional/moisturising cream at night: Get sufficient amount and melt it smoothly using hands and apply on your face after basic steps. You will witness a whole new level of smoothness and moist the morning after!
• To get glowing make-up: When putting on make-up base, melt it on your fingertips and absor it on your face thoroughly. Skip using powder if you want a perfect, healthy glow. If you think the texture is too heavy you can apply it after foundation. Apply on areas that reflect light.
• On dry areas: Face, lips, eyes, elbows, you name it. Apply on wherever you feel dry.

Multifunctional:

You can apply on your lips, heel, dry elbows, before make-up, etc.

 

Direction:

Scoop out a small amount (there is a mini spatula included) and melt it using hands.Then apply to face over or under makeup.

 

I love this! It's not greasy like you would think it is since it is essentially an "oil type balm". I love that it's multifunctional and it's a must in my new skincare routine!!
