Innisfree Mineral Shadow #9 Review

Hello everyone.. ^^
Today i want to share my new daily eyeshadow from innisfree..

Since this time i'll review make up product,i won't talk too much like yesterday...I'm not a big fans of eyeshadow product..but since it's essential for eyes make up,i bought few color which i usually use for daily make up like pink,brown,white,orange,beige..very natural color..
So i pick natural eyeshadow from innisfree called Mineral Shadow.. Mineral shadow color are based from beautiful colors of jeju island..There's 13 palette that you can choose + 2 new palette.. Actually if you compare with other korean brand,Innisfree doesn't have many various eyeshadow to pick ..if we don't include shadow pencil and shadow stick, they only have this mineral shadow and flower mono shadow..







This eyeshadow get big smile from customer.. ^^





Then which color that i pick? actually i want the new color,number 15..but sadly it's out of stock (since i bought them on big sale)..so i pick number 9,which have similar color with number 15.. 




Number 9 contains 4 color :
- Peach
-Soft Pink,almost white
- Yellow
- Dark Brown


Nothing special about the packaging.. Quite simple if we compare with etude eyeshadow palette..


In the back there's manufacturing date... My customers sometimes ask me what date is that?is that expired date? of course it's not expired date..Every korean cosmetic brand must put the manufacturing date on the container according to korea cosmetic law. For eyeshadow,you can store them up to 30 month and after opening you can use up to 12 month. 
it has 3 Free system (i don't know why but in their picture there's 4 free system) : Paraben free, benzophenone free, mineral oil free,ethanol free


Very natural color for daily make up. Actually,i don't really like glittering/shimmering eyeshadow..they're hard to cleanse and will fall if we use brush. And many korean eyeshadow are glittering/shimmering,especially etude house. This eyeshadow also shimmering but not too much like etude house and still pretty good when i applied on my eyes. You can still use brush to apply it. It won't fall too much (if you apply glitter eyeshadow,use a cushion under your eyes so that glitter won't make a big mess on your base make up)


Not really pigmented..but it's enough for daily make up. It's give natural shine on my eyes.By the way,if you watch get it beauty,you must be know "Dohwa Make Up".Dohwa means attractive face which can naturally appeal it's attraction to the opposite sex. The characteristic for dohwa face is thin eyes but big pupils,the rounded sides of the nose, and white and transparent skin overall. Also mouth corner is slanted upward ,upper lip is thicker than lower lips.Very pretty. This is the face type of Sulli f(x),Suzy Miss A and Hyuna 4minute. All of them leading korean beauty trend.
Because i think my face isn't dohwa face type..lately i use dohwa make up for my daily look and i make aegyosal under my eyes use this palette. First,mix peach/pink with beige/white eyeshadow and applied under your eyes. Then don't forget to make the line with matte brown eyeshadow. Be careful..If there's no spesific line,your aegyosal will looks like fat eyes. Not only for aegyosal,i also use soft pink color for my nose to make "garlic shape nose".hwhwhw
But sadly,this eyeshadow are creasing on my eyelids after 5-6 hours. I can't use them too much. I already use eye primer and it's still crease. :(

For price,it's very affordable..i bought this also when on sale,only 5000 won. But if you buy on local online shop,it's around 90.000 - 120.000.
ps : You can buy all product that we review on this blog in any korean cosmetic online shop.

Final score :
3.5/5

See you in next post ~

Wishlist for Fall Season

Hai2.. This is Soojung (again) ^^
Fall is coming and few brand already launch their new fall edition..
Well,fall season is the time when you use warm color like red,brown,yellow,gold..like falling leaves.. what i see from etude and innisfree is red everywhere and matte brown eyeshadow,very classic..And Lip product still get more attention for this season.. 
I'm a big fans of lip product..and if i see new lip product (especially from innisfree),it'll be my next target..hwhwhw
Beside that,i want to buy few skincare,air cushion foundation/bb cream,and cc cream
So the first wishlist is :

Innisfree Color Glow Lipstick



number 4,8,and 10 looks really nice...i want all of them.. XD
They're like say to me "BUY ME! BUY ME!". What should i do?? Seriously,i'm confuse..Can you guys choose for me?><



Yoona is so pretty,isn't she? I think Innisfree = yoona..hwhw

Innisfree Mineral Cushion
(i'm not sure about the name,since they haven't launched)


i see this product along with new lip product,and yesterday i saw it in innisfree's channel on youtube. You guys already know base make up from innisfree is amazing,and i really curious about air cushion..so when i saw it,immediately i said "i must buy it when it first come out". XD
The packaging exactly like mineral melting foundation..but if you know or already tried other cushion type foundation (like IOPE,Laneige,Hera,or Etude House),you must be known what kind foundation/bb cream inside. it's like a sponge and if you press the sponge,liquid foundation/bb cream will come out. By the way,Missha sells tools for DIY cushion make up called "Air Fit Magic Cushion Case".If you interest with making your own cushion make up,you can buy it and fill it with your favourite liquid foundation/bb cream/sunblock.

Tony moly aqua aura cooling cushion cc cream



Lately,in my hometown i feel the weather became more hot than usual. I want a cool base make up so i pick this cc cream.This cc cream claimed it can decrease your temperature to 4 degree more cooler. And i read some review said this product can control the amount of cc cream that you applied on your face.
Quite impressive. This cc cream is shown on 2 well known korean beauty channel,get it beauty & son dam bi beautiful days. Actually this product is best for summer time..but it doesn't matter,since we don't have summer or fall season in indonesia..

Tony Moly Luminous Live Aura CC Cream


And few days ago i got a cc cream sample,also from tony moly called Luminous Live Aura CC Cream. After i tried the sample,i can say this cc cream also impressive. It's long lasting and more light than luminous pure aura cc cream,i like it so much. I'll do review for this sample,so wait for that. ^^

Laneige Water Bank Sleeping Pack 


I think this product already called "Must-Have Sleeping Pack" for us who love korean beauty product. Many people already tried and give high score for this sleeping pack. And i want to try out too. Also i need a product that can help me to have deep sleep,since i got insomnia lately. Really bad for my health and my skin. :(

So..that's my wishlist for this fall..
If you guys curious about some products and want us to review them first .. please write the name of product on a comment below. ^^

Thank you for reading ^^
See you in next post ~

Innisfree Soybean Energy Essence Review


Hello everyone.. This is Soojung.. ^^
This seems we'll do a lot of product review for this month,since we bought a lot of innisfree product. So i hope you like it. ^^
When we talk about innisfree,what's the best product category in their brand?skincare?base make up?color make up?body?hair?tools or sun care product? 





After we tried many product from them and read other blog,i can say innisfree is the best for skincare and base make up. We never feel disappointing when we tried their skincare and base make up. <3
When i want to buy new product from them i always check the smile rating in their website.
http://innisfree.co.kr


This rating are come from innisfree's customer who write review in their website.. More happy the smile,more high their rating. With these smile,we customers feel more easily to find great/good/so-so/bad product.
Of course not every product have smile like that..few are get bad expression. Last time i read one reason why they give bad expression and it's not because their product bad on skin but because they find a dried caterpillar in innisfree cotton pad. Well..this must be because some mistake on their factory,but if you see the good side from this experience.."Oh then innisfree are true about their 100% natural cotton pad till' a caterpillar still in their cotton pad". :D
This is what we like about innisfree eco friendly campaign.

Then..what product that have a big happy smille ? 


That product is "Innisfree Soybean Energy Essence"
Innisfree Soybean Energy Essence is included in First Treatment Essence skincare category.
First treatment Essence seems really popular since SK II FTE,a lot of korean brand made their FTE ingredients according to SK II FTE. If you already watch Hover unnie video about SK II FTE dupe,you will know few product that silmilar to SK II product.Then..What's first treatmeant essence? If i see in Missha First treatmeant essence,FTE is :

- Highly concentrated essential essence for recovering rhythm of skin
- Essential essence applying at the first step of skin care for firming foundation of skin
- Booster essence to help synergy of skin care

if you see those explanation,you can say FTE is first skincare that you use after cleansing and before toner/skin and it'll help other skincare function.But if i learn from other explanation,first treatment essence is an essence that must use at first skincare step because after cleansing your pores are still "open" so the essence will absorb to your skin completely.Also because they contains highly concentrated ingredients it'll repair your skin more intense.Few brand are contains galactomyces,bifida,black sea cucumber or fermented ingredients. All almost have similar function,moisture,whitening and anti-wrinkle.

Innisfree Soybean Energy Essence is one of SK II FTE "dupe" that i choose to tried out. Let's see the description of product from innisfree global website.Sorry if you can see clearly. Click the picture for better resolution. 










Lazy to read all? this is the point :
- This product contains 91% fermented Jeju soybean concentrate to promote healthy and vibrant skin
 - The main fuction is whitening and anti wrinkle
- It also purify dull skin tone and refine unbalanced skin texture 
- Firm skin barrier to protect your skin from external aggressors
- 6 in 1 functional skincare
- Give soothing & moisturizing effect to illuminate & smooth your skin
- You can use in 2 way :
1. Use cotton pad when your skin feels rough & dull.it'll help to refine old dead skin cells for creating clear skin
2. Use your hand when you witness wrinkle & dryness. Your body temperature will helps formula to absorb into skin and make your skin feeling soft and sleek.
- The texture absolutely not sticky and very light,it looks like toner but have gluey substance.Perfect for hot days and oily skin. But it also can provide moisture to dry skin.

When it arrive,my friend stuff are leaked everywhere and destroy soybean energy essence paper box. it erase the soybean ink and made some letter disappear. T_T
I bought the mini size of this product since i'm a college student who have tight budget. The mini size is 80ml.


This is the explanation on the back + ingredients.First ingredients is bacillus soybean ferment extract for firming and on third ingredients there's arbutin for whitening.


This product have 5 free system 
Fragrance, animal ingredient, mineral oil, artificial colors, and acrylamide



The bottle are made from recycleable plastic which like glass bottle. I personally like the packaging since it really innisfree like.hwhw. 



The texture are like gluey toner,translucent and no fragrance at all. it like water if you not touch. The texture are similar to Hada Labo lotion.Very light and not sticky at all. Suitable for me who have combination oily skin. XD



Result on my face
 (i use it for 3 days,i promise to review it after 1 week but i can't wait..hehe)

- Firming my skin very well..my skin looks more healthy and young (how old i am??) since my pore get more tight. Don't be disappointing if you don't feel anything at first use.At first minute use, i also didn't feel any instant difference on my face (like more supple or something else)..but after few minute,i feel my skin more smooth..and it'll stay all day long if you use it in the morning. If you use at night,it will still smooth (even more smooth) in the morning.You can see the different before and after you use it very clearly day by day. (it always happen when i use innisfree product <3). You know many korean actress/actor/idol's skin are very tight and very smooth right? my skin texture almost like that now (still have few acne scar so not perfect). Also i think it because innisfree wine peeling jelly softener,but even i didn't do my peeling routine..soybean energy essence still smoothing my face (i already prove it). Maybe it's because soybean energy essence can use as peeling too.

- Brighten my skin tone. This effect also not instantly appear after you use it..i usually use this at night,and in the morning my face will shining XD 

- It didn't break me out. Please be careful..Some people can't use fermented extract product at all. It'll irritate your skin and make everything more worse. So if you want tp try fermented extract product like this,make sure that you have tried another fermented extract product before and you're fine with that. Luckily,it didn't irritate my skin and i really happy with the result.(even though i never tried another fermented product). Anyway since it's innisfree,you can little bit feel assured to try out.^^

- Very hydrated. My skin not a dry type,and i don't need very moisturizing product. I just need hydrated product to maintain moisture level on my skin. Many oily skin people didn't realize that their skin get dehydrated because bad excess oil which come out. They feel don't need hydrated their skin and it get more severe. Have you guys ever feel your skin feel rough but oil still come out a lot? that called dehydrated oily skin. You need some product that can hydrated your skin while also control your sebum level. And i think this product including in that category. But if you want hydrated & cool product,you can choose gel type moisturizer product.


- UPDATED : Control my excessive oil. My skin usually will produce some excess oil in the morning,but lately i can't found any excess oil on my face.

My skin seems turn into normal skin type. 

About the price,some of you maybe already know how expensive FTE product. Because i bought the mini size and when it on sale,i get this product at 15.000 won (not including other cost). Local online shop are sell the big size at 370.000 -390.000 and mini size at 240.000-280.000.

This is my first FTE and i LOVE LOVE LOVE it. Very satisfied. XD
5/5 !! (Can i give 6/5?hwhwhw)
Sorry if i talk to much.. ^^

See you in next post. <3

Innisfree Air Skin Fit BB cream SPF 35 PA++

Hello again guys~~^^
Today I'm gonna reviewing one of my super new recent HG (Holy Grail) bb cream.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE Innisfree brand and it's product.

Innisfree newly launched Air Skin Fit BB Cream, SPF35/PA++, very light texture apply BB cream likes put a layer of fresh air on your skin, moisturize your skin, contain Jeju Natural Mineral Powder can brighten your skin last all day long, contain Jeju Green Tea help to improve skin more healthy. Easily correct your dullness of skin tone and looks pretty and comfortable.

I just purchasing this new baby in my last innisfree haul. Recently I was using my innisfree green tea bb cream ( for anti acne properties) I was planning to save this baby until I am able to finish all my innisfree green tea bb cream product. But, my curiousity could not bear any more, so I decided to open up this new baby, open the seals up from the tube, and try it on yesterday. And I was super in love immediately with this product. The only thing I thought that time is, I'm gonna use it frequently for my daily basis.








I got the shade number #2 natural beige. It fits perfectly with my skin color~^^




Innisfree Air skin fit bb cream properties:
*Lightweight (Micro Air Skin Fit powder makes sleek and flawless coverage)
*Expressing Downy Skin Tone-Velvet like smoothe finish
*Jeju Mineral Powder-no getting darker (no darkening effect after some hours)
*Jeju Natural Green Tea Ingredients-for healthier skin
*Anti Wrinkle+Whitening+sun screen
*4-free system

This bb cream was much more watery than my other bb cream, I could say this kind of consistency similar to the etude bb cream I had in the past. To be honest (again) I love etude house bb cream for finishing result for daily (natural) make up, but apparently it doesn't have any greater properties towards my sensitive skin, acne scarring, anti acne or anti pimple function as good as innisfree brand.




And to put in note too, I fall in love with air skin fit bb cream CF *starringYoona* as the ambassador of Innisfree brand.

In the Cf, it shows some experiment towards each kind of bb cream, that would not stain in your phone, clothes and give a long last-durable finish. Since It's watery product, you wouldn't have any difficulty to spread this baby smoothly onto your daring face.

Here are some swatches in my hand.




*I did some experiment with running water* and here is the result:

Truth to be told, even after pouring a lot of water to my hands, the bb cream didn't shoke off like any other would. The other bb cream would smugde, and leaving some white trail from the water, like when we're sweating when we put heavy make up, it'll leave some white trail to our face.
Even when I rub it softly, it still stays there. I know it was kinda hard to see the photo, (since the product fits perfectly-well with my color skin) the only reason why I'd confidently says that the product is still there on my hands is the scent. The scent is there. I wouldn't say the product is still perfectly sits on my hands nicely after I rub it with running water, but it is still there, and that much is still pretty awesome for me.

I need a lot of acne scar I need to cover up with, I find this bb cream did a great job for hiding my acne scar, pimples, and redness on my face, if I need more, I just dab some concealer to my face once more.

This bb cream quite expensive than my other bb cream though, but I must admit the properties and functions meet my needs for my daily make up.
I actually had this routine outside home which take hours spent outside, merely 12 hours spent outside. That's why I need this product.
I found that the scent is the same with my innisfree green tea bb cream, and I found those kind of scent in innisfree sunblock too. It's quite difficult to describe the scent, but it gives me some refresh-natural scent, like minty one, but not too minty, has some plant-herbal scent on it too, but somehow I find it relaxing, has some tea tree oil extract scent I guess.

I find using it makes my face kind of glowy a little bit, since I always use powder to set my make up~

Rating:
5/5
*Full scale warrior again this time* Yeayy~~~!!
*super reccomended!! the best bb cream I ever tried
*anyway, the best one bb cream ever tried by my personal opinion is suprisingly often came from innisfree brand*

Innisfree Skinny Waterproof Microcara Review

Good day everyone~^^
Here I am, come back with one interesting review for you all~

Innisfree Skinny Waterprood Microcara
Again, suprisingly, I'm not a big fan of mascara, since for anytime I knew it, I didn't use mascara as for my daily basis everyday makeup. Since I think it would be too much for an daily make up.

I wanna try to using mascara to my daily make up basis, so I find this product would fit enough for everyday natural using.

Product description:
-Triple coating film offers coating to lashes to remain clean lashes for hours.
-Brush of 2.5mm in diameter reaches to the areas where you can’t get easily to create vivid look.
-Black Polymer System that won’t get lump when re-applying. 

This mascara has a very little tiny wand~which is what I love the most of this product, since I could use it for my lower lashes closer.

This photo was taken when i didn't use it with zig zag patterns. Only just straight up.

This microcara really help me to make my lower lash look more obvious~

Unfortunately, I didn't find this product really amusing for me since this product smudge. Yes, I was using it outside about 5-6 hours, and when I came back home, it already smudged a little. This microcara really sounds good though since it is waterproof and have 2.5mm brush diameter, although you can always conceal it with bb cream or concealer using cotton tip,and you're done. But I don't think pile off a huge bb cream or concealaer again and again would make our eyes look any good. Mostly when we had this fine lines below eyes. Totally not good. Or you could try to use to erase the smudge with makeup remover, and then apply some bb cream to cover it a little? what a tough job to do, yes?

It's not easy being a ladies you know~
Rating:
4/5 if this microcara didn't smudge I would gave a full scale warrior to her.
Totally a good try to anybody of you who would want to achieve natural look from using mascara. But not good enough for you who are a typical person who play hard as me who would using this mascara over more than 5-6 hours~ *tee hee*
