[Soap Opening] DeBON Floral Water Soap

This a soap I got from Korea's daiso for 1000 won.
I bought it because it has nice scent of rose!

Can't wait to use it~ I always love opening a new bar soap.

2018 NEW Beauty wishlist

Back in 2016, I made a beauty wishlist and indeed got (but also sold LOL) most of the items on the list. Now in 2018, I have learnt to make more informed purchase decisions haha and seek for skincare that is simpler, fragrance-free and actually beneficial to my skin.

I'm still testing out my current skincare routine and if it works, I'll post it for yall to see :)

I still can't get over my sheet mask addiction though, so I'm still purchasing a lot of those! Oh sheet masks, how could my life be without you...

***

So to my new 2018 beauty wishlist:

Cleansers
Recently I'm a lot into gel cleansers so I would like to try them and make a focus post!

1. Bioderma Sebium and Sensibio gel cleansers
2. Avene Cleanance gel

Toners/Essence/Serums
1. Dr Wu Pore Clarifying Toner with BHA
I love the Dr Wu Daily Renewal Essence with Mandelic Acid, so I'm keen to try this one after I finish my mandelic acid one.

2. Melano CC Essence
Highly raved online. I've been wanting to try Vit C products for a long time, and perhaps it'll be my first :) Sitting in my Qoo10 cart for a while already, waiting for cart discount haha!


Lotion/Creams
1. La-Roche Posay Cicaplast Pro-recovery gel
Thinking of adding some zinc and madecassoside to my routine.


Sunblock
1. Avene Cleanance Sunscreen
I'm currently using the La Roche-Posay Anthelios Dry Touch Oily Skin Suncream, so I'm keen to see how this fares against this one and see which one I prefer.

2. La Roche-Posay fluid sunscreen
Can't remember the name, but I want to get a more fluid sunscreen to apply as a first layer and the gel cream as the 2nd layer. (The gel cream is quite thick and difficult to spread around the whole face)


Masks/Others

HAHA, f*ck making a list for masks, I'm so obsessed with them I can't make a proper list because it's always growing and changing.

As for others...

1. A variety of pimple patches
After I started using hydrocolloid pimple patches and realised the beauty of these little patches, I could never live without them anymore. I'm thinking of doing a comparison between different brands and making a focus post.

2. Laneige Eye sleeping mask
This is a want, not a need, so it's at the very bottom of the list. I think I'll wait till May and see if I still want it and get the birthday discount from the store hahaha

[Fast Sheet Masking Reviews] Innisfree It's Real Squeeze masks! (Kiwi, Green tea, Lime, Aloe)

I wrote this long ago, and even though the masks are discontinued (replaced by the new My Real Squeeze masks), I shall not waste and leave this in my drafts haha.

Anyway previously I was on a 'Skincare mission' of masking once every 2 days, but it did more harm than good and I gave up after 2 weeks. So I have decided to change my sheet mask review series to the 'Fast Sheet Masking Reviews'! hehe

And because this was written so long ago (except the Aloe which I've just added), I have lost the photos to the masks so I have used the images from their official website.

***

Kiwi

Product feel - (4/5)
I was so surprised when I opened this up, because I expected it to be the kind that is more citrus-y and refreshing type. But instead it's the thicker kind of mask, with thicker white essence unlike the ones I have used. I feared it would be slippery and too heavy to stay on my face while sitting but it wasn't! I could do my homework while wearing this. But because it felt so nice and soothing I proceeded to just lie down on my bed for half an hour LOL

Smell - (5/5)
I LOVE THE SMELLL.. It doesn't smell like kiwis tbh but it has this nice, sweet smell, and the sweet smell wasn't the overpowering kind so it's all good and nice.

Function - (4/5)
Face felt mighty moisturised after that. NICE!

VERDICT | 💖💖💖💖💖

I love this mask so much! I will definitely repurchase this BUT IT'S DISCONTINUED ☹️ It felt so nice and relaxing while wearing this.

***

Green Tea

Product feel - (3/5)
The mask is the thin kind of mask, with transparent essence. The essence isn't too drippy, and it fits and stays on my face nicely. (Except the chin part, abit big LOL) But I can do my homework while wearing this so it's pretty okay.

Smell - (2/5)
I expected a nice green tea smell but ehh.. It smells like.. I don't know how it smells like but it isn't bad and it's quite mild too so I just left it as that.

Function - (2/5)
This mask pretty much didn't do anything, but it didn't break me out.

VERDICT | ⭐⭐⭐

This mask was so 'normal', did nothing, it doesn't really feel particularly nice also, so I won't buy this again. They have better masks in the same range :'D

***

Lime

Product feel - (3/5)
Like the green tea mask, it is the thin kind of mask. The essence isn't too drippy and stays on the face nicely.

Smell - (-1000/5)
THIS FREAKIN SMELLS LIKE CAR PERFUME!!! it felt like I splashed car perfume in my face, and the smell was also so strong to boot.. BAD BAD BAD

Function - (2/5)?
The only credit I'll give this mask is not breaking me out LOL

VERDICT | 👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎

I bought this mask with the intention to feel refreshed and clean after using this mask, I thought it will have the nice citrus-y smell.. BUT NO.. I certainly felt refreshed in another way, hopping with anger after using this I mean HAHA

WILL NEVER BUY THIS AGAIN

***

Aloe

Product feel - (3/5)
Also the thin kind of mask, like the green tea and lime one.

Smell - (2/5)
It smells so artificial, nothing like aloe at all, but on the bright side, the scent isn't too strong.

Function - (2/5)
This mask pretty much didn't do anything, but it didn't break me out.

VERDICT | ⭐⭐⭐

I got them for free during one of the Innisfree promotions, so no complaints I guess hahaha.. but totally no use.

I still have some of the It's real squeeze masks that I've yet to try! So do look out for the future posts on this hehehe

2018 Innisfree VIP Kit & Sheet mask purchases

Hi! I haven't posted in a while, because recently I have been on a skincare clearance after my numerous hauls and have been actively selling my items on carousell. Now, I've learnt to make more informed purchases and no longer just buying cuz I feel like it :')

In the future I'll make a review on the skincare I really love and also an 'emtpies' list! Recently due to lack of sleep, my skin condition had been the worst in years, so I'm trying to take really good care of my skin and am using a very careful skincare routine. If my current skincare routine is successful, I'll share it with you guys.

Even though I've stopped myself from buying too many skincare products, I'm still a VIP member of Innisfree and for Singapore, they're giving out their VIP kit till the end of this month! So I quickly went to collect in case out of stock hahaha.

The VIP kit is so beautiful I can't even-

Innisfree Blooming Jeju VIP kit

I am SO in love with the kit!!! (even though I'm most likely not going to use them :'D) Innisfree really knows how to get to us. There are three boxes in this kit, which you can use for your body, hands and face.

Haha, why nothing for the hair! Might as well make it a complete set, Innisfree!

1. Jeju Cherry Blossom: Body wash and lotion.

The bottles are soooo beautiful! And they smell really great too. It's such a good gift, really, for anyone.

2. Jeju Canola Flower: Face mask and hand cream

I don't really use hand cream but these are so cute!

3. Jeju Tangerine Flower: Face whitening pore cream and serum

From what I know, the tangerine series for Innisfree is rather popular, especially the serum. So tempted to try even though I know my skin won't like it 😞

The gifts they give are so nice I don't mind continuing to be their VIP member just to collect the yearly freebie hahahaha


***

By entering their store, I saw some things I was interested to try LOL (Good move Innisfree, by making people go to your store to collect freebies, you also tempt them to buy things. It's like the moment I stepped into the store, I've lost HAHA)

Innisfree Skin-Reset Peeling Mask

These 2-step sheet masks were $4 each and one of the biggest reasons why I bought this is cuz.. NO FRAGRANCE!! REALLY!?!?!! YES!!

Please do correct me if I'm wrong tho haha

I'm so so so keen to try them soon. There are 3 in the series, but I bought 2 first, one for oily skin and the other one for combination skin. The 3rd one in the series that I didn't buy is for dry skin, but I love ceramides too so I'll buy the last one if I like the 2 hehe

I'll post a review on these masks next time so do look out! ❤
