REVIEW: COSRX Clear Fit Blemish Cushion (27 Deep Beige)

COSRX has been one of my absolute favorite k-beauty skincare brands for several years now. I still use a lot of their skincare products in my daily regimine, like the One Step Moisture Up Pads every morning and the Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence every night! Not to mention, I can NOT live without the Acne Master Pimple Patches. 

When they launched their Clear Fit Blemish Cushion, I knew I needed it in my hands. The Clear Fit Blemish Cushion is marketed as a skincare treatment and makeup foundation all-in-one. Wearing the cushion not only conceals blemishes, but it also helps soothe and treat acne. Stylekorean kindly sent me the cushion in #27 Deep Beige to review!

REVIEW: Marc Jacobs Shameless Youthful-Look 24H Foundation SPF25 (Light Y270)

One of the most exciting launches for me this season was the Marc Jacobs Shameless Youthful-Look 24H Foundation. Youthful-Look? 24 Hours?! I'm always up for trying out new base formulas and this one sounded great, but it fell short of expectations. I was lucky enough to be sent this foundation complimentary for review, courtesy of Influenster and Marc Jacobs Beauty.

REVIEW: Etude House Real Powder Cushion, Dear My Blooming Lips-talk Chiffon, + Play 101 Pencils (May Pink Bird Box)

For a while now, dewy and glowing skin has been the most popular beauty trend all over South Korea, the capital of incredibly cute beauty products, which eventually spread all over the globe. From 10-step skincare routines to cushion compacts with ultra dewy finishes, everything was made to help you get that fresh-faced and youthful look. The dewy look has won over many hearts, but now it's time for it to take a break and move over for matte finishes!

I personally love dewy and glowing skin, but sometimes the dewiness is too high-maitenance for me -- I always have to make sure my foundation doesn't transfer anywhere or try and keep my hair from sticking to my face all the time!

So with summer officially rolling in, Etude House launched a brand spankin' NEW collection which is perfect for the hot, and admittedly sweaty, season. This new launch features products that are longer-lasting and more matte. The new collection includes the Real Powder Cushion and the Dear My Blooming Lips-talk Chiffon! I was lucky enough to receive a few of these products, along with two new shades of the Play 101 Pencils in my Pink Bird box to review for you guys this month! So without further ado, lets get to the review! ^ o ^
Warning: this post is VERY photo heavy :)


REVIEW: Etude House Berry Delicious Collection (February Pink Bird Box)

Etude House just won't quit it with the constant super cute collections! They're seriously churning them out non-stop each month and I'm amazed at the consistent high quality products they keep releasing! My February Pink Bird Box (I know, it's super late), was filled with some pretty amazing products from Etude House's NEW Berry Delicious collection, which is their main 2016 Spring/Summer line. The products I'll be reviewing today from the Berry Delicious line includes the  Berry Delicious Any Cushion, the Berry Delicious Fantastic Color Eyes palettes, Berry Delicious Cream Blushers, and the new Color in Liquid Lips Juicy lipsticks. Also included in the new Berry Delicious line, that I won't be reviewing, are mascaras, lip treatments & scrubs, and body care products.

So let's dig in! :D


REVIEW: Hwajin Homme Terrior Dynamic BB Cream

Though not many men wear BB Creams in the Western part of the world, I know a lot of Korean men do. Taking care of one's appearance is the norm, so there's nothing wrong with a guy wearing a little BB Cream to achieve a better appearance! I have personally seen Men's beauty products, including BB Creams, BB Cushions, and even Men skincare lines, popping up recently in K-beauty stores, so I've been curious as to what the difference was with a man and woman's beauty products, specifically the BB Creams. Today, I'll be trying out and experimenting something new and fun! I'll be wearing and reviewing a Men's BB Cream -- The Hwajin Homme Terrior Dynamic BB Cream! ^ o ^


REVIEW: Etude House Big Cover Collection + Monkey Wish Eyes Eyeshadow (JANUARY PINK BIRD BOX)

 Etude House was on a roll for the month of January and cranked out so many new collections and products! As you know, 2016 is the year of the monkey, so it's only fitting for Etude House to come out with limited edition monkey imprinted shadows, right? ^ o ^ Also, in January, Etude House came out with a new product line: The Big Cover collection, which is meant to help you cover imperfections in more convenient and easier ways! The Big Cover collection includes the Big Cover Concealer BB, Cushion Concealer, Concealer Kit, Stick Concealer, and the Tip Concealer.



My January Pink Bird Box from Etude House recently came in and I was so excited to see that I had received the Big Cover Concealer BB, the Big Cover Concealer Cushion and a few Look At My Eyes Monkey Wish Eyes eyeshadow singles to review for you guys! :D

REVIEW: Etude House NEW Play 101 Stick Collection (December Pink Bird Box)

Hi loves! :D Sorry for the mini disappearance; my school laptop and blogging laptop both broke down at the exact same time, so I was busy getting that fixed T^T... Anyway I'm back today with an exciting review: the new Etude House Play 101 Stick Collection! As some of you know, Etude House and the absolutely gorgeous Korean makeup artist, Pony, launched a new collaboration featuring an entire line of easy-to-use products which makes using makeup a breeze, even for beginners!


The Play 101 Stick Collection includes the Play 101 Stick Foundation, the Play 101 Stick Multi-Color, the Play 101 Stick Contour Duo, and the Play 101 Stick Brush. Just look at all the pretty colors!! 

REVIEW: Hanskin Bio Origin Royal Ampoule B.B

Today, I'm going to be reviewing the Bio Origin Royal Ampoule B.B. by Hanskin. If there's one thing that Korea knows how to do right, it's BB creams. I was super excited to receive this in my monthly BNT Box, but was slightly worried because normally, Korean BB creams and foundations don't come in a wide variety of shades. Usually they're available in 2 typical shades and both of those shades are always way too light for me.




REVIEW: Rouge Bunny Rouge Milk Aquarelle Liquid Foundation in Cashew Milk Parfait + COUPON CODE!

Even though one of my many crazed obsessions is the cushion compact, I have not totally ignored other foundation options. Before cushion compacts, I used everything from BB Creams, to liquid foundation, to foundation serums, and even powder foundations. One of my favorite kinds was liquid foundations; I always loved the look, feel, and coverage liquid foundations gave me. The only problem was that I was never able to find a liquid foundation that fit my every need... UNTIL NOW.

Today, I'll be reviewing the Milk Aquarelle Liquid Foundation in Cashew Milk Parfait from one of my favorite makeup brands, ever: Rouge Bunny Rouge. I've been a huge fan of their brushes (their crease brush and mini-shader brush are in my everyday essentials), but just recently started trying out some of their makeup products that they kindly sent to me for review. If you would like a coupon to use on ANY purchase from Rouge Bunny Rouge, scroll down to the bottom of this post!



WHAT IS THE ROUGE BUNNY ROUGE MILK AQUARELLE LIQUID FOUNDATION?

The Rouge Bunny Rouge Milk Aquarelle Liquid Foundation has a dreamily light gel texture that blends and moves with the contours of the face like a second skin and minimizes imperfections to give the appearance of a flawless complexion whilst allowing your natural beauty to show though.



Packed with skin-saving protectors and botanicals including Detoxyl, a powerful anti-pollution ingredient to keep the world at bay and Bamboo, which conditions, softens and repairs the skin. Shea Butter nourishes; Panthenol imparts long-lasting moisturization, stimulates cell regeneration and normalizes skin. Egyptian Lotus and White Water Lily Extracts protect, soften and fight free radical damage.


Cashew Milk Parfait is a medium, warm olive beige shade.



REVIEW: O'melon Chameleon Essence Queen CC Cushion in Cover Beige

The last item I'm reviewing from my August BNT Box also happens to be my favorite... It's the O'melon Chameleon Essence Queen CC Cushion! I'm still a noob when it comes to cushion compacts, but they have taken over my vanity and replaced the bb creams and foundations I used to use. The cushion compact is literally all of my wants, needs, and dreams combined into one product; not only is the application with the antibacterial puff super quick and easy, but they're so convenient and easy to carry around for traveling and touch-ups. Not to mention, application is flawless a.k.a. no streaks or missed spots on your face!

REVIEW: e.l.f. Beautifully Bare Foundation Serum

I've always been a loyal customer to e.l.f beauty/makeup products ever since I was in middle school! I loved how their brand was super inexpensive, but most of the items were of good quality. e.l.f. sells everything from makeup tools like eyelash curlers and brushes, to eye, lip, and face makeup (hence what 'e.l.f.' stands for). Recently, they came out with a skincare line which I am DYING to try! But before I pulled the trigger and bought the whole skincare line, I decided to purchase and try out their new Foundation Serum!

The e.l.f. Foundation Serum is a part of their new Beautifully Bare collection and it comes in only three shades: light, medium, and dark. The Foundation Serum also contains UVA/UVB SPF 25 and is designed to help "revitalize color and radiance to skin." It is also infused with Vitamin A, C, & E, Grape Seed Oil, Pomegranate Oil, and Goji Berry to help "brighten, restore, nourish, and protect the skin."

REVIEW: Skinfood Peach Sake Pore BB Cream SPF 20 PA+ (Natural Beige)



As some of you may know, I'm a huge fan of Korean beauty/makeup products! I was super excited to receive the Skinfood Peach Sake Pore BB Cream in a package sent from Pretty lil Face and tried it out as soon as I could.
