Skinfood Platinum Grape Cell Essential BB Cream - REVIEW!

 I believe this comes in two shades but I received the sample in shade 1.
This is a fair shade with a hint pink undertones (looks yellow when swatched).

Now I know this does not match my skin tone. (Obviously.) But I hated the consistency once I had it on my hand. It has great coverage but it is VERY thick! It does have

Etude House Play 101 - REVIEW!

Available in a 50 shades!

I have colors 15 colors in:

1, 6, 8, 11, 18, 41-50

Sharpener at the end

Left to Right: 1, 6, 8, 11, 18, 41-50

The pencils are convenient and easy to carry around. 

They come with their own inbuilt sharpeners and are also retractable; I wished they had a smudge brush built in too but they don't. :(
The textures are creamy and glide on easily without tugging on the skin.
True to the chart:

• 1 is a creamy matte black. Perfect for eyeliner
• 6 does have glitter. Perfect for the inner corners of the eyes.
• 8 is a matte nude. I like to use this for brightening my eyes by lining my waterline. Can be used as concealer too. 
• 11 is matte. Great lipcolor. You can multi use this as a blush too. It's coral in color.
• 18 is matte lavender. Good for blush.
  
  41-50 are great for eyeliner/shadow
• 41 has a hint of glitter. 
• 42 is matte. I like to use this as a base shadow if i'm doing a neutral smoky look.
• 43 has glitter
• 44 has glitter
• 45 has shimmer copper color.
• 46 is a glittery copper coral color.
• 47 is shimmery copper color. Great for eyeshadow/eyeliner.I want to say that 45 and 47 is the same color with only a slight color difference when the light hits it a certain way.
• 48 has a hint of glitter.
• 49 is a creamy brown
• 50 is a creamy dark brown. Same as 49 but a shade darker. Great for eyeshadow/eyeliner. Does smudge after a few hours (without primer underneath, but I have oily lids anyway).

You can find this anywhere on ebay or testerkorea (which is where I bought them).

Peripera Lip Water Tint in No.2 Pink Juice & No.5 Candy Juice - REVIEW

No.2 Pink Juice

No. 2 Pink Juice

No. 5 Candy Juice

It didn't dry out my lips but if you have dry lips or any cracks do not use No.2! It will accentuate it. No.5 won't.

I absolutely love berry lip colors, and so this purple shade is really pretty! Because of the water like consistency of the lip tint, the applicator is a doe foot applicator and not like a nail polish brush (like the lioele lip tint).

one layer above (in No.2) ...it can be buildable though :)

I didn't swatch no. 5 because it barely showed on my lips but it comes off pinky

Pros:
- Good color pay off
- can build a gradient effect (if you want that look)
- not drying
- LONG staying power

-smells great

Cons
-No.2 can accentuate dry cracked lips because of the dark color 

-No.2 can get on the teeth!! Beware of how much you use

-its pretty heavy so i don't like putting this in my purse or anything cause its made of glass and don't want to accidentally break it in my purse but it is sturdy

-the water like consistency, be careful not to spill it :)

Missha M Perfect Cover BB Cream - SWATCHES!

Missha M Perfect Cover BB Cream No. 13,21,23,27 and 31

From Left to Right: 13, 21, 23, 27 & 31

Consistency: light to medium

Coverage: I don't think this does anything for pore coverage/control, but the color is nice after oxidizes and blends into the skin.

Shade: 13 is very pale, 21 ran a little grey and 23 was grey (I have made a post on no.23 before), 27 leaned yellow (good for nc20-25) 31 being the darkest shade also has a yellow tone in it but for anyone nc30-35 and up can probably wear this

Benefits: SPF 42 pa+++, moisturizing, softens skin texture

Oil-control: Low. Fine for dry skin, oily girls will need to blot and I mean BLOT!! combination skin may not need to blot as often

Bottom line: Nice overall skin texture and moisture improvement

Banila Co. Eye Love Brow Kit

Okay so first off, I haven't been updating due to school and vacation. But I'm back!!

With the banila co eye love brow kit, the idea is somewhat similar to the sigma eyebrow palette kit (which is sold out :( unfortunately).

The 4 colors from left to right (according to the box): Pure Sand, Sepia, Sahara, Ebony

Pros:

-It's very lightweight and you can carry this anywhere really. It has a magnetic lid clasp so no problems with it opening.

-the tweezers are quite nice, they are small but it has a slight angle to them for easier maneuvering.

-I never had to use brow scissors before either but i'm sure I will have a great use for them when I need to do my fake eyelashes though. :)

Neutral:

-It's not as pigmented but it is buildable (this might be a con for most people but I like being able to customized my eyebrow color depending on my hair color, etc)
Cons

-Not enough colors. You're given one highlight color, and three actual shades. A light taupe, a medium taupe w/ brown, and a grey/black that isn't so dark. Again this is buildable but I did have to swipe it 2-3x when I did the swatches.

-The clear eyebrow gel smells weird. It has this chemical smell that's kinda hard to describe. I actually do not use this clear gel. I would rather use a colored eyebrow gel/mascara.

Nexcare Acne Patch REVIEW!!!!

I actually bought 5 different Nexcare acne patches LOL!

The idea behind these acne patches is that it absorbs the oils and pus from the pimple.

Starting with the 3M Nexcare acne patch 36 patches (on the left).

I wished I had taken a pic of the patches itself but it comes in 2 different sizes.
Comes in a total of 36 patches:
       24 patches in 8mm & 12 patches in 12mm sizes.

It's not so thin enough to put under makeup and not be noticeable. Plus it has a smooth surface so makeup won't adhere to it. I use it at night and it stays on my face even when I toss and turn and even when I wash my face. Kinda gross when I remove it to see pus on it. TMI sorry! lol

To use it's best to wash the face first before applying it! I haven't noticed if this works on black and whiteheads but it did a great job on my zits. I was able to shrink my cyst pimple when it started to form (took a few days and a lot of the patches since the cyst has a lot more oils and pus compared to tiny zits) -__-"
 It goes on the skin transparently but by morning when I take it off it has white colored oil/pus on it...(GROSS right?!) lol Same for any acne patch.

For the rest of the four boxes. They all essentially work the same way. The difference is the thickness and the amount of small/large patches. These four boxes come with a pink plastic tweezer to remove the patches from the sheet.

The Orange 3M Nexcare acne care patches comes in 34 small 8mm patches and 12 large 12mm patches. A little thick though but not so bad.

The top right Blue 3M Nexcare acne care patches comes in 30 patches in 0.8cm
great for small zits/pimples. The second most thinnest of all the 5 boxes that I tried.

The bottom left Purple 3M Nexcare acne care patches comes in 50 patches in sizes 0.8cm
This one is great if you have small zits/pimples. Doesn't have the large size.

The bottom right Green 3M Nexcare acne patches comes in 6 patches in 0.8cm & 12 patches in 1.2cm sizes. Personally if you just want to test and try the product this is a good start. I wouldn't buy this box again for the fact there's only 18 patches in total. These are very thin like a sheet of paper though!!!! Which I love but wished it came in more patches. This box is the only one as thin as a sheet of paper.

Can be bought on ebay or amazon. The first box I bought on amazon and the last 4 I bought via ebay.

BAREMINERALS Blemish Therapy & TARTE Smooth Operator™ Amazonian Clay Pressed Finishing Powder REVIEW

Starting with the  

TARTE Smooth Operator™ Amazonian Clay Pressed Finishing Powder REVIEW:

I love that it's just like the Smooth Operator™ Amazonian Clay Finishing Powder. But if I had to choose I would go with the Jar version than the pressed powder form. I find that the
Clay Finishing Powder lasts longer than the pressed powder. The pressed powder has a very pleasant smell that's different than the powder form.

Pros:
- Doesn't leave streaky residue

-Great for touch ups throughout the day

Cons
-Very sheer (although a pro than a con for most people)

-Doesn't last very long, touch up is necessary!! This is why I like the powder form.

-Hard to get enough product onto the brush that comes with it (unless you use a powder brush maybe)

BAREMINERALS Blemish Therapy

Used as a treatment that conceals blemishes and helps heal outbreaks.It has a 3% of sulfur as an ingredient as well as tea tree ingredients (as well as other products).

When I first used it, I could smell a bit of the tea tree, which does not bother me (or my nose). I think it's ok for tiny small zits. I wouldn't say it's conceals very good though. I personally would not buy it again. It takes a few days for it to work and see results though. Good to try it out though. It is a bit drying so don't use a lot of it. A little goes a long way! :)
