Innisfree Mint Line

Innisfree Mint Line


Innisfree Mint Skin and Innisfree Mint Lotion


Rating: 7.5/10
Actually I didn't buy this product for myself. I got it for my bf who has pore problem. He loves mint. I could not help it but to try to product too. This product reeked of mint and the herby smell is much stronger. Although the pores however are not visibly much smaller but the skin condition has improved slightly. Perhaps due to some oil control properties along with the pore tightening claims, his pimples breakout frequency have reduced.

Innisfree Mint No Serum Powder


My rating: 8.5/10
I love this product to the max. Previously, I was using the Za oil blotter powder. This product is so much better in a sense that it makes my skin feels breathable. On top of that, the serum control properties is so much better. On good day, I only need to apply it on for once and it will last me the entire day. The powder also feel extremely light on my face. Of course, being in the Mint line, it smelt like mint and herbs. Best of it all, the packaging is lovely!

Innisfree Wine Peeling Softener

Innisfree Wine Peeling Softener


My rating: 5/10

This is one of the hit item for Innisfree. However, I do not fancy it very much. It does not seem to exfoliate much of my dead skin. Many claims that their skins were brighten and smoother at the end of the application, but this is definitely not the case for me. I wondered what have I done wrong for my use. I was really disappointed. Fortunately, I have a gift as a consolation. It comes together with the product when I purchase it via JLove Belleza.

Innisfree 7 Herbs Line

Innisfree 7 Herbs Line


My rating: 7.5/10

I was introduced to Innisfree by a Korean friend. Innisfree is well known for its products that contain botanical nutrients and essence extracted from organic plants and herbs. These factors help to aid the healing of various skin problems. I was drawn to this product because it is another quality brand by cosmetic giant Amore Pacific (manufacturer of Laneige).

The 7 Herbs Line indeed smells very fresh and herby. I tried the skin (toner), lotion and essence. When I dispensed the essence, I was surprised. I was drawn to the essence because the essence looks glittery pinkish among its white coloured background essence. I tried to captured on my camera but apparently I couldn't.

Apparently this range is a little pricey as compared to the other brands Whitening products. My Korean friend commented that this is not shocking as whitening products/range are usually more expensive. If you find it a little expensive, perhaps you could give the essence a try. It is indeed amazing!

Skinfood Black Rice Pen Eyeliner

Skinfood Black Rice Pen Eyeliner


Description from Skinfood: A resilient, flexible brush that applies easily even for first-timers without smudging. Sebum-proof polymer coats the surface of lashes for clean, fresh eye make-up. The black rice extracts make it gentle on the eye areas.

My rating: 7.5/10

I am not really very good at drawing eyeliner. Besides my eye are single eyelids. Hence, this product isn't really for me. I bought it in the name of fun to try something new from Skinfood. I would say the smug proof isn't too bad and my Maybelline makeup remover does the job well in removing it. The tip of the eyeliner is really fine as seen below


It works well even for an eye makeup newbie like me. I guess I will love this product if I am really into eye makeup. But it is definitely quite pricey at the retail.

Skinfood Extra Virgin Olive Essence

Skinfood Extra Virgin Olive Essence



Description from Skinfood: Hair serum with 100% extra virgin olive oil. Protects hair from external stimulus, prevents dehydration and split ends.

My rating: 6.5/10

This is one of the best seller from Skinfood hair care so how could I not get my hands on this product. Perhaps it was too much highly raved so i was a little disappointed. My hair is still frizzy after use and it did not helped at all. However, the virgin olive oil was really fragrant and I feel that my hair is totally natural. I have currently found a more effective serum to solve my frizzy hair problem so I do not really use this product any more. But i will still continue to purchase it once it a while to rotate it among my hair serum so that it will keep my hair healthier. This is definitely a better alternative among other serums to serve as my hair serum period rotational product.

The Face Shop Plus +1 Lip Care Cream Shea Butter

The Face Shop Plus +1 Lip Care Cream Shea Butter



Description from The Face Shop: Intensive lip care for dry, chapped lips. Hhighly nourishing, Highly moisturizing.

My rating: 8/10

Following my review on Skinfood Shea Butter Hair care, I thought I should give it a try for my lip care with shea butter products too. I have to agree that they are pretty good at providing sufficient moisture. I always have dry and chapped lips and this TFS+1 Lip Care Cream Shea Butter is great! I make it an effort to apply it daily and preferably a few time a day. My dry lips has improved tremendously. The smell of shea butter is nice and buttery too. Here's a photo of how the lip care cream looks like:

Now I am already moving onto my second tube. The packaging is a little different from what is selling in retail as I ordered my directly from Korea via JLove Belleza

Skinfood Shea Butter Hair Mask

Skinfood Shea Butter Hair Mask


Description from Skinfood: A moisturizing hair mask that protects hair from external irritation such as UV rays and free radicals, its shea butter adds a lustrous coat to dry, dull hair. Also contains polyquaternium-10 to coat each damaged hair, resulting in shinier and healthier hair.

My rating: 7.5/10

As mentioned earlier, my hair undergo rebonding and I always have the problem of spilt ends and dry hair. So, I am always on the lookout for hair mask. However, this mask does not really solve my problem of frizzy hair. The Skinfood Mositure Egg Hair Mask did a better job.

The texture of this mask is very thick and the smell of shea butter is really nice! Although it did not solve my frizzy hair problem, it did moisturized my hair at least for a day.

This tiny bottle looks a little too small but it lasted me for a month plus. I used it weekly and I have extremely thick and long hair.

DHC Eye Lash tonic


I have very fine and thin eye lashes. So when I got to know this product. I could not wait to get my hands on it!

As per instruction, I have this tonic on my lashes every morning and night. The tonic isn't too sticky for the lashes when applied. You will just feel that your lashes are 'wet', that's it. Totally not too uncomfortable. I tried it on for a week and now my eye lashes are so much darker and visible. Especially my lower eyelashes.


The brush is soft and gentle too.

My rating: 9/10
Definitely a try get for people who has 'invisible' lashes!

This mini mirror comes as a free gift with purchase of wallet. Although I requested for the larger mirror for me to place it on my desk, apparently, they give me this one instead. A little disappointed though.

Here's another stripe sweater. The material is very soft and it doesn't feel too hot and thick if you stay indoor. Of course, if you are out in the hot sun, it would be a little inappropriate. It comes with this cute little purple plastic bag which I was a little reluctant to destroy while opening it.

Although I have bought many items, I will not be reviewing all of them due to time constraints. The last item that I will be reviewing for this entry will be this t-shirt. I am not a fan of t-shirt as I prefer blouses. However, the quality of this t-shirt is really not too bad given the price that I have gotten it for.
