REVIEW: Missha (not cruelty free) Watery BB Cream [3.5/5]

photos coming soon...

REVIEW:

Color: A dark dark beige that blends right into fair skin...dewy, no shimmer

Texture: light, smooth

Coverage:very good...but not as good as Lioele Beyond The Solution...

Lastability: Pretty well. Did not have to reapply all day...
Scent: neutral kind of "cosmetic chemicals" smell. I don't like it but it fades.

Effect:A matte look
Other: SPF 27

Packaging: Tube same design as box - iridescent white with green spots, iridescent silver logo

Price: $12 shipped - ^_^

Overall: great coverage, very portable, gorgeous tube. But Lioele BTS is still better and until I find one better than that...

REVIEW: SkinFood (not cruelty free) Pineapple Peeling Gel [5/5]

Brand: Skinfood
Product Type: Skin Peel
Origin: South Korea

This is my second peel - my first was Missha, and this one is my current favorite. It's safe for sensitive skin - but don't rub too hard!
The scent is not too strong, and the effect is smooth, silky skin...I even used this on my feet and it's amazing! I can't say that I want to waste that much of it though because it takes quite a bit!!
Overall, I recommend this, but will continue trying out new peels by other companies! Particularly want to try the Laneige Strawberry Peeling Gel!

REVIEW:
Packaging: Nice sized shiny squeeze tube, pretty color
Scent: Pineapple, but not in an artificial fruity tropical way. Which I like...
Texture: Cold, smooth (very fine little granules)
Effect: Smooth skin!
Other: it's all natural
Overall verdict: SUCCESS! But I still want to try other peeling gels.

(Instructions: Squeeze out dime-sized portion and rub lightly into desired area. I say lightly because in using the Missha gel, I gave myself a small but very painful cheek abrasion...lesson learned...
Dead skin comes off effortlessly!)

REVIEW: Missha The Style 4D Mascara [average 3/5]

I needed a mascara and I got this one for $4 (retail $8.99).

Brand: Missha
Line: The Style
Make-up Type: Mascara
Origin: South Korea
Tested on Animals: No

REVIEW:Packaging: No box-plain black stick -same as all of the other The Style line items
Scent: non-offensive
Color: black
Texture: feels a little waxy
Ease of Use: standard
Effect: Good but not great; seperates lashes but still gives them that clumpy 'spider legs" look. later in the day they feel waxy and crumbly to the touch. I was pulling pieces off.

The verdict: Not worth $8.99 IMHO, a basic mascara....not bad but not great...

The claim:
A protective layer is formed on each lash, making your eyelashes look full and voluminous. mmm...not so much...
(available in 3D & 4D)

REVIEW: Missha Kiwi Foot Scrub [for the average foot]

I got both of these for the amazing sale price of $1.80 each - the other kind is Papaya

Claim: Contains apricot seed powder to help remove aged skin cells from the soles of the feet. Fruit extracts supply nutrients and moisture making the feet feel smooth and healthy.

Brand: Missha

Skin-Care Type: foot scrub

Origin: Korea

Tested on Animals: NO

REVIEW:

Packaging: Kiwi colored squeeze tube. I like that the flip top is also green. Pretty standard paper label on front. Would have liked to see big shiny colorful kiwis....

Scent: Not super-strong ^_^ or sweet, does smell like kiwi...

Texture: Creamy with rough exfoliates -non-abrasive

Color: N/A but it's also green

Ease of Use: Squeeze out and rub into feet. Wash off. Would prefer if it could absorb into feet and not need to be washed off...

Effect: It does smooth out the worn parts of your feet, but by the end of the day it's rough again.

Overall: I like it, it's light, smells nice, but ultimately it's for average feet and mine are beyond that...@_@

Unfortunately, Missha doesn't have an actual foot treatment or a stronger version scrub...

does anyone make a foot specific peel??

REVIEW: Missha Nail Polish : NOT long-lasting...[1/5]

Brand: Missha
Type: nail polish
Line: The Style
Origin: South Korea
Tested on animals: no

This nail polish is currently on sale for .29 each! That's incentive enough for me to try it. I ordered 2 colors- PK 108 and PK 102.

REVIEW:

PK 108 is actually a sandy shimmer color, and PK 102 is a bright pink sheer glitter.

So not really at all what is pictured...but I like PK108 better in person.

The site says: It is highly lustrous and glossy; it dries quickly and is long-lasting.

Actuality: It is lustrous, but not very glossy. It does dry quickly, but is NOT long-lasting.

Mine couldn't last through doing the dishes. It didn't just chip or peel, but it shrunk to a blotch in the middle of my nail the way other nail-polish looks after about a week to a few days.

Disappointing.

REVIEW: *Missha The Style Defining Lip Liner [3.5 stars]

The Style Defining Lip Liner
Transparent lip liner to keep your lip makeup clear without bleeding!!

(1) Keep your lip makeup clear- It outlines lip contour by gliding on easily without feathering and bleeding. It keeps your lip makeup all day long without double applications. (2) Natural lip contour with transparent color reveals- It makes your lip contour clear and natural by filling fine lines on the lips up instead of color reveals of common lip liner.

This only comes in one color: neutral. As much as I like Missha, I'm not crazy about The Style line...it's not as pretty packaging-wise. This is the one exception because it's already pink instead of the plain shiny black.

Brand: Missha

Make-up Type: Lip Liner

Lip liner Type: twist up

Origin: Korea

Tested on Animals: NO

REVIEW: Missha The Style Defining Lip Liner

Packaging: No box - the product is a pretty neutral pink -very pretty!

Scent/taste: N/A

Color: Neutral (only comes in one color)

Texture: smooth

Ease of Use: draw on

Effect: Really does prevent bleeding lines, goes on smoothly, color blends easily

Overall Summary: I really like it and would be very likely to get it again. A little frusterating that it can't be bought locally but has to be ordered online
