Product Empties # 26 My Lucky Seven

It's another round of product empties for me. It's the series where I showcase the products I've used up and all that jazz. I'll collected them for quite some time now. Let's do the counting in 3, 2 and 1.

Product Empties # 26 : My Lucky Seven Products

1.) A Bonne  Milk Power Lightening Lotion with Collagen

This is a concentrated milk lotion that protects your skin from the UV rays and gives it a healthy glow. It's light, non-greasy and easily absorbed by the skin. This has yogurt and milk protein that double the effectiveness in giving you a younger look with  bright, soft and smooth skin. It also has collagen that improves skin's firmness, reduces wrinkles and enhances skin elasticity.

VERDICT: I like this lotion a lot. One because it's cheap and makes my skin soft. Two, it lasts a long time actually. When it comes to lightening, it  does the job gradually. I'll repurchase this soon.

2.) 24 Hours Urban Escape Toner by Jill2

This toner has Jill's advanced formula to protect our skin from all various kinds of pollutants that damage the skin especially the face. It's a lightweight toner that's easily absorbed by the skin. Perfect for doing the 7-skin step method.

VERDICT: Yes, it does the job very well. Makes the skin refreshed and awakened. It also gives this healthy glow. A winner absolutely.

3.) Piolang CP-1 Raspberry Treatment Vinegar

This is a hair and scalp treatment. It claims to get rid of flaky scalp and it also makes the hair shiny and healthy. It's very safe to use since this contains good nutrients. It also has this fruity raspberry scent to it. I've reviewed this before and click HERE to read more.

VERDICT: I used to like a lot before but not anymore.  Well, it does makes the hair smooth and shiny but the smell of this somehow lingers. As for the scalp area, it didn't do much and the effect is somehow temporary. I just used this up and that's about it.

4.) Whitening Milky Soft Cream by Onsaemeein

This is a soft cream that functions like a base for your makeup. It claims to give this instant whitening effect. It is designed for people who want to have an instant smooth and lighter skin complexion instantly. Well, I did review this one before and check it out HERE.

VERDICT: At first, I didn't like it because this cream is on the heavy side. Then I realized it can be a good primer during the day and night cream to boost whitening. Gladly it works.

TIP: Just start small since it takes time to be absorbed by the skin. A pea size amount will do and add more if desired. That way, you won't have any difficulty spreading it out evenly.

5.) Aloe Vera Soothing Gel by Nature Republic

Again, I've expressed my love this product. I like that it calms and moisturizes the skin leaving the skin cool and fresh. It has multiple uses and check this HERE to know more about this product.

VERDICT: Of course, I already have a back up of this. That's how much I love it. Well, there are many similar products to this but I still go back to this one. It's that good.

6.) Double Lasting Foundation by Etude House

This foundation by the name itself is meant to last long. :) Applying a thin layer of this claims to provide a perfect cover somehow making it look naturally flawless. For an in-depth review of this foundation, check HERE to read more.

VERDICT: I super like this product. One is because it lasts all day long. Two, it minimizes the shine on my face especially on the T-zone. Since it's that good, I just need a little bit of touch-ups throughout the day. I'm eyeing to have another backup of this one soon.

7.) Winage Moisture Eye Cream with Caviar and Truffle

This is a very light eye cream that feels very moisturizing and rich on the skin. It's gentle and gives this boost of hydration around the eye area. Since this has caviar and truffle, it has this good skincare vitamins that are essential for skin repair and anti-aging.

VERDICT: If this easily available in the market, then I'll highly repurchase this asap. It's pretty straightforward and does the job well. 

That's a wrap. Those were my empties recently. How about yours? Let's share our product empties and I might learn a handful of good information from you guys. Till next time. Take care.

Product Empties #24 : My Lucky Seven

Hello and welcome back to my blog. Let me introduce you to my Product Empties Series. It's the 24th one already and let's get cracking.

My Product Empties # 24 : My Lucky Seven

1. Sanicare Cleansing Wipes

These cleansing wipes are gentle, alcohol-free, lightly-scented with Eucalyptus and safe for children too. They feel very soft and have this cloth-like texture for that thorough cleansing.  One pack contains 80 sheets.

VERDICT: An absolute winner. This really is very reliable and travel-friendly. The price point is also another advantage. A must buy for everybody.

2. Maybelline Color Sensational Creamy Matte Lipstick in Rich Ruby

I like how creamy and smooth this feels on the lips. A good lip color for everyday use and can be worn during date nights too. 

VERDICT: This is another favorite here in this list. Nice color pay off and makes you look more put together. A good lipstick to try.

3. Belo SunExpert Tinted Sunscreen

It's a tinted sunscreen that has a medium to deep shade. It's very lightweight and easy to use. I've reviewed this product before so you can check HERE for more details.

VERDICT: A good product to try. It's a sunscreen and a good foundation all in one tube. 

4. Colour Collection All Day Wear Lengthening Mascara

It is designed to define and extend the lashes making them look full. It also claims to be waterproof.

VERDICT:  I think I'll pass on buying this one again. Yes, it's waterproof but I noticed some fall outs throughout the day. One good thing though is that it really makes my lashes thick in one coat. :)

5. Real Skin Healthy Vinegar Skin Toner in Makgeoli

It's a healthy vinegar skin toner that has makgeoli. This ingredient mainly helps to brighten and nourish the skin making it clearer and better. More information about this product can be seen HERE from my previous post.

VERDICT: For its price point, it's a yes. Though the effects don't happen overnight, I really seem them coming after 1 week of using it. I will definitely repurchase this soon.

6. Miracle Fit Essence Concealer by Secret Key

It claims to cover blemishes and give the skin a healthy look. It does have SPF 30++ . It also has green tea extract and green tea seed oil to promote hydration and moisture. More swatches and photos can be seen HERE. 

VERDICT: It's a good steal. I used this as my trusted base replacing my foundation during the hot summer days and it did perform well. I will hoard this one again for sure. 

7. Milky Dress Wrinkle and Whitening Eye Cream
It's an eye cream that targets 2 main points. It claims to whiten the under eye area and help with the wrinkle care. I did review this product before and you can see it HERE

VERDICT: I'll pass this one for now. This eye cream is very much suitable for young skin.

That's a wrap for me. Thanks for  visiting this blog and hope you find this helpful. Let me know if you've used some of the products that I've mentioned about. As I always say, take care and let's continue to discover new and good skin care products.

My Product Empties # 18

Welcome back to my blog! It's that time of the month to talk about my empties one by one again. Let's get right into it. Hope you find it helpful.

My Product Empties # 18 : My Lucky Seven

1. Milky Dress Wrinkle and Whitening Eye Cream

It's an eye cream that targets 2 main points. It's responsible for whitening the eye area and wrinkle care as well.
*I've reviewed this already. You can view it HERE

VERDICT: It's good for young people especially in their 20's. It doesn't do much for me. It only hydrates the eye area but the effect is also temporary. :( I won't repurchase this anymore.

2. Elizavecca Skin Liar Primer

This claims to do 3 good things on the skin. First, it covers the pores. Second, it does moisturize the skin at the time. Lastly, it holds the makeup in place for a longer period of time. 

* I've reviewed this before. You can view it HERE

VERDICT: It's a pretty decent primer considering its price point. If you have enlarged pores, then this won't work much. Also, it doesn't do much with oil control. I recommend this for young skin. 

3. Missha The Style Under Eye Brightener in Light Beige

This acts like a liquid concealer that perfectly covers blemishes, dark circles and freckles. In my opinion, it works best for my when I used this as a highlighter. I put this on the bridge of my nose, under the eyes, and on the arch of my brows. 

* You can view my thoughts about this concealer HERE

VERDICT: It's a winner as a highlighter but failed as a concealer. 

4. Dove Ultimate White Anti-Perspirant Deodorant

This helps speed up skin restoration to lighten dark underam skin cells. It's always my trusted bestfriend to keep bad odor at bae.

VERDICT: I'll surely repurchase this again.

5. Medicated Hand Cream by Kiss Me

I'm always blown away every time I use this hand cream right here. I like how rich it feels on the hands and that moisturizing effect is just amazing. I also put this on my feet, knees and any body parts that need moisture.

*You can check my review about this hand cream HERE

VERDICT: If ever you're in Japan, buy this one. I recommend this for dry skin. It works wonders with its price point. 

6. Etude House Eyebrow Pencil # 1

It's an eyebrow pencil that has a brush in the other end. About the pencil, I love how creamy and easy it is to use. It glides smoothly. The color pay off is also good too. 

VERDICT: This is a good eyebrow pencil to use for beginners. Since it's relatively cheap, I recommend everyone to try this out and surely you won't regret it.

7. Cream Body Wash Goat Milk Scented by Watsons

This gently and effectively cleanses and moisturizes your skin. It also combines gentle cleansing agents with the rich fragrance of goat milk, leaving your skin soft and silky smooth.

VERDICT: A winner. With its price point, you can never go wrong. It also lasts for a long time. I highly recommend this.

That's about it for now. Thanks for dropping by my blog guys. What are your empties? Let's share products then. Take care and always choose happiness.

Product Empties # 16 My Lucky Seven + 3 More Items

It's the time of the month again that I get to share my product empties. This time, I don't only have seven products but I also have 3 additional items this time. That's basically a total of 10 products all in all. Let's keep this going then.

My Product Empties # 16 
1. Skin & Lab Dr. Bio Infusion Bio Activating Essence

I use this regularly as my essence to provide moisture and hydration to my skin. I like how lightweight it is so I apply this about 5- 7 times per use following the Korean skincare routine of 7 skin method.

You can check the link also if you want to more about this product.

http://luzbelleathome.blogspot.com/2017/01/skin-lab-drbio-infusion-bio-activating.html

VERDICT: It's a buy for me especially if it goes on sale.  A good essence to try actually.

2. Swanicoco Fermentation Snail Care Toner 

3. Swanicoco Fermentation Snail Care  Emulsion

I like using them both as part of my skin care routine. I like how rich and luxurious they feel on my skin. Also, I've noticed my skin becoming firmer, a bit whiter and definitely more plump. 

If you want to get more details about these combination, click the link.

http://luzbelleathome.blogspot.com/2017/02/swanicoco-fermentation-snail-care-toner.html

VERDICT: A winner for me. I highly recommend this.

4. Pond's Age Miracle Dual Eye Cream

Basically, I've loved this eye cream for over a year now. It does what is expected of it to do. It somehow helps with the lines and wrinkles around my eyes but not that completely though. More information can be found on the link provided here. I've reviewed this before.

http://luzbelleathome.blogspot.com/2016/03/review-ponds-age-miracle-dual-eye-cream.html

VERDICT: It's a buy for anyone who's on the look out for a good eye cream since it's gentle to use and quite affordable. 


5. Innisfree No Sebum Mineral Powder

This product is another winner for me. I guess this has to be my second or third repurchase already. It just does the job of making my face less oily, setting my make up too and also even men can use it around their T-zone to avoid that shine on the face. In addition, it's a staple in my hand bag and easy to use for touch-ups if I feel oily or something.

More details can viewed here in this link. I did a short review about how good this product right here is.

http://luzbelleathome.blogspot.com/2016/12/innisfree-no-sebum-mineral-powder.html

VERDICT: A must buy. It is pretty straightforward and small enough to carry everywhere I go.


6. L.A. Girl  Pro Conceal HD Concealer in Pure Beige

This concealer has been my go to for a year or so already. I like how creamy and easy it is to use. Though it isn't very high coverage, I'm pretty satisfied how natural it looks on the skin. Click this link for an in-depth review about this product.

http://luzbelleathome.blogspot.com/2016/02/review-la-girl-pro-conceal-hd-concealer.html

VERDICT: I highly recommend this if you are looking for a good concealer that isn't very expensive. :)

7. Rire Luxe Gel Eyeliner in No.2 Dark Brown

Sadly, I couldn't understand why this product is quite difficult to apply on the eyelids. The texture isn't smooth and it isn't creamy at all. Then I figured I won't use it as an eyeliner but on my eyebrows instead and it worked surprisingly. I just use this to line my brows and fill in some sparse parts for that fast application. Gladly, it's long lasting and doesn't easily smudge.

VERDICT: It's a fail as an eyeliner. :( Also, the product has a tiny product inside so it runs out pretty quickly. Sad.

8. Cell Fusion C Laser Sunscreen 100 SPF 50 PA+++

I like how light and effective this one is. It also goes well under my favorite BB cream and foundation. It is easily absorbed by the skin and it actually feels nothing. That lightweight. You can check this link for more photos and review of this good product.

http://luzbelleathome.blogspot.com/2017/03/cell-fusion-c-laser-sunscreen-100-spf_16.html

VERDICT: If it's available here in the local market, then I'll definitely repurchase this. :)

9. Pond's Perfect Care Facial Wash

This facial wash is pretty simple. It cleans my face gently and it also produces this rich lather which I like. It has vita-cleansers  and pro-moisturizers that are equally good for our skin.

VERDICT: Yes, I'll buy this one. It's cheap and a must have.

10.  Purederm Spot Reducer Gel Patches

These patches are specially formulated hydrogel treatment for reducing the appearance of pimples on your face without irritation. They have special skin ingredients that soothe the skin throughout the night. The box contains 30 patches.

VERDICT: It's a good pimple patch to use but the stickiness isn't enough as it easily slips and slides off on the skin. I won't repurchase this anymore.

There you  have it. So many empties I've accumulated . Hope you find this helpful. Let me know your empties too and share ideas with me. I'd be glad to know that as well. Till next time beautiful people. Thanks for reading this entry. Take care.
