Laneige - Water Sleeping Pack_Ex

Ello, Ello!
I bought this 'Water Sleeping Pack_ex' by Laneige when I was in Korea a year ago. Finally finished it up :)
I bought this for around $20 CAD when I was in Seoul, South Korea.
I've read rave reviews on this product before. Personally I did not see a difference in my skin while using this product. I had high hopes this would be a great serum but it didnt really moisturize my skin.
It sinks into the skin easily, not greasy and has a pretty not irritating scent. I have pretty sensitive skin but this worked out fine.
I find that most Laneige products have a great mild scent to them.
Personally I would not purchase this product again since It Didnt really Make a difference to my skin.

Aveeno Ultra Calming Daily Moisturizer



Ultra Calming Daily Moisturizer by Aveeno.
Love this product, its thick and moisturizing with a pleasant scent yet not greasy!
Its pretty pricey though going at around  $22 CAD.
It also does what it says, my redness/blemish over time was lessened.
Didn't clog my pores at all nor break me out!
I love this product, def. will repurchase... if its on sale or at a decent price. The price tag on this is the only thing that makes me hesitant on buying it! Other than that I recommend this to anyone with dry skin!

Body Shop - Tea Tree Skin Clearing Lotion


Been using this for a few weeks now as a daily moisturizer($13 CAD for 1.69 fl. oz)... Very light and moisturizing!
Has a slight hint of Tea Tree oil which I do like! It hasn't helped my redness at all,  in the ingredients the percentage of actual tea tree oil is pretty low which is why I don't think this helped my blemishes.
Love the tingly refreshing feeling you get when you put it on! It dries matte, it doesn't go on greasy and is very lightweight! 
Its a great moisturizer but it doesn't do what its "suppose" to which is clear my blemishes...
Wouldn't repurchase just because of the high price and lack of performance.
If you're looking for something to clear your blemishes - i'd skip this product.
** I do love the face mask - will do a review soon!

Clinique Lash Building Primer


This is a review for Clinique's Lash Building Primer! I got this a few months ago and finally figured I used it enough to give an honest opinion. First off I LOVE the packaging. Its so sleek and different, not like all the other mascara primers out there. The packing is thinner so there is less product... 4.8 g vs Mac Prep and Prime - 10 g. It has the regular mascara wand, white product...

Without mascara!Scary right?

My left eye, with NO primer! And I'm using L'oreal's Extra Volume Collagen Mascara!
There is no big difference to the eye with or without primer. But by the end of the day, the non primed eye had mascara smudges @ the bottom of my eye while the primed eye stayed exactly the same was in the morning!
Sooooo the primer helps keep the mascara on, prevents smudging and holds the curl! I like the product and I like the packaging but not so much the amount of product given. It does its job!

Lush Mask : Oatifix

Hello Hello! This review is for Lush's Oatfix Mask!

"Use Oatifix to clean and soften dry and sensitive skin. Oats are calming, ground almonds give you an exfoliating scrub, bananas are softning and illipe butter reduces redness. "

- Lush



I have sensitive, and dry skin so I thought 'Hey, could this be my new HG mask?'
No. It wasn't. This mask has a thick consistency a faint oatmeal smell, it wasn't too overpowering. I didn't notice any almond bits inside. Honestly this didn't do anything!


It didn't help my complexion, my skin didn't feel moisturized or refreshed the mask actually left kind of a slimy residue behind that I had to scrub off. And the mask itself did not exfoliate my face at all..

The expiry date does not help this product either, it expires 1 week from the day I purchased and it was the longest one I could find in store. This cost me around $6-7 CAD.
I will not repurchase this, this was kind of ... useless.

The Body Shop - Golden Pink


The Body Shop Cheek Color In Golden Pink. I love this color, its a deep pink with subtle golden shimmer. It goes on sheer but you can definitely build up the color.
I love wearing this on top of creme brushes, it doesn't change the color but adds a subtle shimmer to it. But I do like wearing it by itself. Its $15.50 CAD, and I will definitely repurchase this when I run out. I love how sheer it is, i love how subtle the gold is. Its
one of those colors that can look good on any skin tone!

Eyeko Fat Balm!


I've discovered Eyeko, (use ambassador code : E12638 for a free gift) a brand from London with cute packaging! AND FREE EXPRESS INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING if over 55. And let me tell you its not that difficult to get a cart full of that much! :)
I'll post a picture of my haul later, right now I want to show you the FAT BALM. I thought the name was weird but when i saw that it was a multiuse item I instantly wanted it.
I'm a sucker for items you can use in many ways, this one can be a lip product or a cheek blush. They have many different colors, I got mine in mint. Ive read reviews saying that it tasted like mint and the color was very universal! I dont really have a light pink blush or lip product so I decided to get it!

I've used it on my lips, I was excepting a minty taste since its called mint. But it tasted like spf-- which I hate! Its kind of hard to put on your lips since its pretty big. It has a really smooth consistency which is good but can be bad when you get a big goop of spf tasting stuff on your lip.
It applies very sheer on your cheeks but you can always build it up. I usually top it off with a powder blush. You can see it on my hand its at the top of it. The shimmery sheer part, its very hard to see. Sorry!
Overall hate the taste, not very pigmented, not long lasting. I don't think I'd buy any of the Fat Balms again.
