Review: FANNY SERRANO Light Tulip Liquid Lipstick



Heya ! So today i'm gonna review something that I won through a giveaway. Firstly, this Fanny Serrano is not available here in my country..I think..coz I've never seen this before. So I was quite surprised when I opened this lipstick. It has light in it :O... wow! I think that is superrr awesome..
Then, there's a small mirror at the side.. which is also a cool thing.
It may look like a lipgloss tube but its not.The texture of this lipstick is thick and I like that it does not have any fruit scent , just a normal lipstick scent. Because of the thick texture, its a bit difficult to apply with the applicator. So, what I normally do is dab a bit on my middle lower lips and spread it out using my pinky finger. Add more if you like so but a thin layer of it is enough for me because it lasted very long and it doesn't make my lips dry. 
Oh! Sorry I didn't take any pic of me wearing.. but I can assure you that the color is kinda like mauve pink.
I wish this is available here :( bcoz I have sensitive lips. Not every lip product suits me.

P/s : Excuse me if my english is incorrect. I write review based on my experience and none of them are sponsored.

Review: Ginvera Green Tea Nude Cover BB Cream



Heya ! 
So today's review is about Ginvera Nude Cover BB Cream with spf30. The main ingredient is Green Tea extract. Why green tea? The Green Tea Extract has 20 times more anti-oxidant power as compared to Vitamin C, providing superior protection against harmful UV rays. 
okay..okay.. I don't usually explain what the product is because it can be read anywhere on the web. Cut to the chase, here's my review:

Pros: ~ Easy to apply, glides smoothly on skin.
          ~ Even's out skintone. 
          ~ Gives a natural finish look.
          ~ Long lasting.
          ~ Medium coverage.
       
Cons:~ a bit dewy for me since I have oily T-zone, but after applying press powder it looks much better :)

Will I repurchase this? YES

p/s: If you are looking for a full coverage, this might not suits you. But overall, this is a good product.

Short and simple review.Thanks for reading :)

Review : Hada Labo UV Moist Emulsion vs Biore UV Aqua Rich






Heya! So today I am finally gonna give my 2 cents on Hada Labo UV Moist Emulsion vs Biore UV Aqua Rich. I think these two are in the light moisturizer category. Because I have oily skin, it is difficult for me to find a suitable moisturizer with spf..because spf tend to add oil to the face or white cast..>.< Even some moisturizer claim to be oil free, yet still makes my face oily. Nobody likes oily face right? So, I've been searching high and low and finally came to these two. :) So here's my review


Both back wording are in Japanese

Here, the left side is the HL and right side is Biore. HL consistency is more liquid and Biore is a bit cream type.  I purchased the HL first. I love it! It absorb quickly in the skin and has a very light feeling. When I almost run out of it, I can't seem to find it since most of the place are sold out. So I decided to give Biore a try. To my surprise, it is as good as HL, plus it is cheaper than HL :D yeah! Both have spf 50 which is a thumbs up because the weather here in Malaysia is super duper hot!! 
P/s: I also use both of them as moisturizer and for makeup base. But for those who have dry skin type, this won't be enough to moisturize your face.
Would I repurchase the item? Yes of course I would repurchase both but I would go for Biore first.

Thanks for reading :)

Til the next post. Ciao!

Review: Hada Labo Super Hyaluronic Acid Skincare

heya! sorry for the lack of update.. been so busy lately.
So this is my first review.. the Hada Labo Super Hyaluronic Acid Moisturizing. I've heard great and not so great reviews about this product. So i decided to give it a try myself. I actually bought the set from Groupon few months back. There were four items- AHA+BHA Foaming Wash, Super Hyaluronic Acid Moisturizing Lotion, Super Hyaluronic Acid Moisturizing Milk, and Super Hyaluronic Acid Moisturizing Mist. As you can see from the picture above, there's only two out of four items.. so here's the review....



AHA+BHA Foaming Wash

Sorry to say, this really doesn't suits me :( First day i used it, the next day I got a huge pimple on my chin. not a big deal as i usually get some now and then. Next day i used this again, another pimple on my chin. So i decided to give this another try for the third day. Guess what?  YES! another pimple at the same place. I immediately stopped using this and gave it away to a friend. I have a combination skin type ( oily T-zone) whereas my friend is a dry skin type. So i don't recommend this to people who have oily skin type.

Super Hyaluronic Acid Moisturizing Milk

Another thumbs down for me :( . As i mentioned, i have a combi skin type. A small amount of product is enough for the whole face and neck. But even i tried to put as little as possible, it is still too oily and it breaks me out too. So, i gave this away to a friend too. That explains why two of these products are not in the crappy picture.

Super Hyaluronic Acid Moisturizing Lotion

A lot of people are asking about the difference between the Milk and Lotion. Well, Milk is kinda like our Moisturizer, creamy type whereas Lotion means Toner, more to water base. It is said that this Lotion is sold every 4 seconds in Japan! So far, I'm still using this product, it doesn't breaks me out, doesn't have any smell or makes my skin oily. four drops is enough for the whole face and neck, just like the SHA Milk. It also does have that elasticity effect like in their commercials. For combi and oily skin, this is recommended because it is lightweight and add a little moisture to your face.

Super Hyaluronic Acid Moisturizing Mist

I am not really a face mist kinda person, but I do use this sometimes when I need to freshen up myself after a long day. it kinda acts like the SHA Lotion but this is easier to bring along. 

Would I repurchase this item: I would only consider repurchase the SHA Lotion.


P/s : this is my honest review, i'm not being paid or anything. You can visit their Malaysian webpage for more details. http://www.hadalabo.com.my
