REVIEW: Missha Super Aqua Pore-Kling Nose Dual Patch + Bubble Sheet Mask

One of the biggest skincare concerns I have has to do with my pores - everything from blackheads, sebaceous filaments (the "blackhead lookalikes" caused by excess sebum, mostly on the nose), to congested pores. I've gone through hundreds of products claiming to remove blackheads and treatments aimed at clearing my pores, but it's very rare for me to find a product that actually works. So when I do come across one, I just HAVE to write a review about it and share it with you guys! :D

Today's review is on the Missha Super Aqua Pore-Kling Nose Dual Patch and the Pore-Kling Bubble Sheet Mask. And *spoiler alert*, the Nose Dual Patch is the most effective and gentle nose treatment I've ever tried.

Biggest Missha Sale of The Year (40% Off EVERYTHING) + My Fave Missha Picks!

Missha, one of my go-to K-beauty brands, just started off their massive Thanksgiving/Black Friday/Cyber Monday sales with a whopping 40% off EVERYTHING! It's easily one of their biggest sales of the year, so if you've had your eye on something, NOW is the time to get it! This sale started on 11/18 and lasts until 11/30, but don't wait because products can sell out! Missha also offers free shipping off of orders $40+, along with gifts with purchases, which I'll talk more about below.

I've put together a list of some of my all time favorite Missha Picks that I highly recommend picking up during the sale. Missha offers high quality formulas and for the sale price? It's unbeatable! And no, this post is in no way sponsored - it's just an amazing sale that rarely happens, and I wouldn't want you guys to miss out! :)


REVIEW: Missha Glam Art Rouge (Beige Rug, Petit Ribbon, Dry Flower, Red Boss, Rose Brick)

As the weather gets colder, I've realized that lip balm sometimes isn't enough to hydrate my ever-dry lips, so I often find myself searching for hydrating lipsticks that'll help nourish my lips without compromising color. For me, a moisturizing lipstick during the Fall and Winter seasons is a necessity!

Recently, I've found myself reaching for the Missha Glam Art Rouge, which help give my lips the rich color I desire, while still keeping my lips moisturized and in tip-top shape! They're formulated with Bulgarian Rose Oil and Rose of Jericho which help provide hydration and nourishment.


REVIEW: Missha Triple Shadow (Honey Orange, Mocha Beige, Marsala Red, Sand Wave)

For the past few years that I've been obsessing over Korean Beauty, I've always avoided one thing: eyeshadows. Eyeshadows from K-Beauty brands have had a notorious reputation of being too sheer partly due to the fact that most Korean women, the targeted market for K-beauty brands, prefer a natural makeup look. However, as of late, more and more K-beauty brands are upping their eyeshadow game and creating shadows with rich pigmentation rivaling that of Western brands. One of my favorite eyeshadows I've been LOVING lately is the Missha Triple Shadows!

REVIEW: Missha Super Aqua Ice Tear Cream || TesterKorea

One of my favorite go-to online shops to purchase K-beauty is TesterKorea.com! If you haven't heard of TesterKorea yet, they're an online store based in South Korea that offers Korean beauty products at amazing prices! By amazing, I mean there's no huge mark-up compared to a lot of stores in the USA and these prices are close to what you would find if you were in Korea. How awesome is that?! 


I have personally purchased from them numerous of times and each time my products have arrived in tip-top shape! ^ o ^ The box TesterKorea packages the products in is a hard and durable industrial plastic that's super sturdy and every item is carefully and individually bubble wrapped (numerous times too)! Shipping is based on weight and the shipping time takes about a month with registered airmail, which is normal when shopping overseas, or a week or less if ordering EMS! 

One of the other many reasons I LOVE shopping there is because they're also one of the first global websites that puts up the newest products and collections! I love being able to get my hands on the newest product releases (I'm a true beauty junkie LOL), and you can also request specific items for them to carry if you're dying to buy something! Not to mention, TesterKorea has always included numerous sample packets with every purchase I've made, big or small, and there's nothing that shows a company cares more than free samples hehe ^^. I promise, I wasn't paid to say any of this review, but I truly feel this way about them -- I literally waste my days constantly browsing their site and spend way too much of my own hard-earned money there almost weekly, so yes I've been obsessed with them ever since I've gotten into K-beauty!

Anyway, TesterKorea recently hosted their first Real Tester program and I am so happy to announce that I was lucky enough to be chosen as one of the 17 Real Testers! YAY :D I was sent a small package of three new product releases to review for you guys and today's review will be on the MISSHA Super Aqua Ice Tear Cream!


LET'S GET ON TO THE REVIEW :D

REVIEW: Missha M Real Lasting Pen Eyeliner

One of the few things I can't live without, and can rarely leave the house without, is eyeliner! Even after years and years of practicing eyeliner and the perfect winged out cat eye, it's still something that requires a lot of patience, time, and perseverance. To be completely honest, I mess up every single time, and have to try at least 3-4 times to get it right. I've come to realize that doing a perfect cat eye doesn't depend on just the flick of your wrist, but it also depends on the type and quality of eyeliner you're using. Trust me, I've gone through over 30 different brands and types of eyeliner, in counting, and I have yet to come close to my perfect holy grail. 

I often get people asking me, "How can I get better at doing my eyeliner?" Well, there's no real way to get better at using eyeliner besides practicing. Remember the saying, "Practice makes perfect?" Well, that's completely true when talking about eyeliner, especially liquid liners.

There are many different types of eyeliners falling into three different categories: pencil, gel, and liquid. Not only that though, there's also different variations/products for each type. For gel eyeliners, you have the gel pot, but also the gel liners that come in pencil form, or the gel liners that come in pens that you can just twist to use. For liquid liners, there's the ones that come in the little bottles, or ones that come in pens, but there's also the pens that have felt tips, silicone tips, or brush tips. As you can see, eyeliners are a very tricky thing and it can be difficult trying to find the best one for you. Ultimately, it takes a lot of trial and error to find not only the type that works for you, but also the kind of applicator tip you work best with, PLUS, finding the formula that you like the most whether it be a matte finish, a shiny/glossy one, or a natural semi-matte one.

Today, I'm going to be reviewing one of the liquid pen eyeliners that happen to fall in my all-time top 5 favorites: the Missha M Real Lasting Pen Eyeliner, courtesy of Chuusi.ca! I was sent this product to review and I really wasn't expecting much from this, but BOY, was I in for a surprise!




WHAT'S THE M REAL LASTING PEN EYELINER?

The M Real Lasting Pen Eyeliner by Missha is a smooth, precise, and quick-drying liquid eyeliner that leaves you with a smudge-proof, long-lasting, and defined look.



REVIEW: Missha Super Aqua Mineral Cleansing Water


Cleansing my face is such an important part of my skincare routine and it's the one step I can't skip no matter how tired or lazy I feel. I've tried a wide array of them including foam cleansers, liquid cleansers, balm cleansers, gel cleansers, oil cleaners, you name it! One of my favorite types of cleansers and also one of the gentlest kinds is micellar/cleansing water! Today I'll be reviewing the Missha Mineral Cleansing Facial Water that I was kindly sent from Beauty Spin for reviewing purposes!

I love the simple, but beautiful blue gradient design on the packaging and the bottle. The bottle also comes with a gray pump (yay for pumps)! 



I have been a huge fan of Missha ever since I've tried their Time Revolution First Treatment Essence Mist and their Mineral Cleansing Facial Water does NOT disappoint! 

The Mineral Cleansing Water contains Blue Lagoon Water which is enriched with minerals that are effective for soothing and moisturizing the skin. This mild cleansing water leaves the skin healthy and moisturized after cleansing. It does not contain any skin irritants such as artificial colorants, fragrances, or alcohol to gently remove makeup.

REVIEW: Missha Super Aqua Marine Stem Cell Gel Tonic


Today, I'll be reviewing the Missha Super Aqua Marine Stem Cell Gel Tonic which I was kindly sent courtesy of Beautyspin.com! I've mentioned them before in a previous post, which you can find, HERE, but here is a quick rundown about them: Beauty Spin is an e-commerce site that sells all kinds of beauty items such as skincare, makeup, haircare, bodycare, fragrances, and even oral care, all at extremely discounted prices. These products are 100% authentic of course and each product I received arrived in tip-top shape!
