Etude House "Bubble Pore Cleansing Patch"

Etude House "Bubble Pore Cleansing Patch"

by Rosalie

 

Hi Lovelies,
wich season is your favourite?
I love spring and fall, but winter, especially this cold winter is driving me crazy. Ok, I know there are places in the world where it is much more cold, but I cant stand this for to long. This weekend we had -14°C!!!! We went out for a short walk and after this I was frozen. 

I need to really look out for my skincare. It is horrible!!
(Just want to update you about my everyday problems... huuu.)

To calm down I love to do face masks. Just a while ago I  ordered a bunch of different face patches from Etude House and todax I wanna show you one of them because I really liked it! <3

It is the "Bubble Pore Cleansing Patch". It is supposed to help against blackheads on your nose especially, but of course can be used on other spots on your face. In general it should clean the skin where it is used.

BRAND: ETUDE HOUSE

VOLUME: 1 PATCH

PRICE: $3

I odered the product at the Etude House Global Store but it is also available at other shop's.

The mask came out with a line of some other mask's. We wrote about them on a other blogpost:

Blogpost: masks masks masks (click for link!)

 

To use the mask you need to cleanse your face and towel dry it. After that you onl need to put the patch out of the packaging and put it onto your face. The shape of the patch is perfect for my nose, really big outlining. It catches a big spot on my face. I putted it onto my nose part and left it on for 10 minutes. 

just putted the mask out of the packaging

applied onto my nose area

In this time the liquid in the patch started to bubble like crazy. It felt like something is working on my skin, but it was nothing bad and it doesn't hurt. I removed the patch after the time and massaged the leftover bubbles into my skin. After all of the bubble/liquid was absorbed fro my skin I washed my face again with water and applyed a moisturizing mask. 

after 10 minutes, see all the bubbles! *__*

BUBBLES!!!!!

The leftover bubbles on my skin after I have removed the patch.

I really could see how clean my skin was on the part where the mask was. AMAZING! It worked so much better than other black head strips I have used since now.

Do you have some nice products against blackheads? Please show them I really want to try out some more things! <3

I hope this review was helpfull for you.

If you still have any questions feel free to ask! <33

Yves Rocher Body Oil with oat extract

Yves Rocher Body Oil with oat extract

by Rosalie

 

 

Hi Lovelies,
just in case you didn't know, Violetta and me we adopted a cat. SO in my last post I wrote that we were thinking about adopting one but now he is living with us for one week already. We adopted a cute old male cat, he is around 13 or 14 years old. He loves to cuddle and his fur is so amazingly long and fluffy. Just tell me if you want to see some pictures of him, I would love to share them with you! <33

Anyway, just today morning it started to snow again and last friday was the opening ceremony of the olympic games in South Korea in Pyeonchang. I have watched the ceremony and I loved it. But that again showed me that winter isnt gone and we will be having some cold days waiting for us. So Skincare is important but not only on faceskin, it is also really important to keep the whole body skin moisturized. To be honest most of the time I am way to lazy to really put on some bodylotion or oil but nethertheless I have some products I want to share with you that kind of help me with my dry skin.

I think Yves Rocher Products are always good to my skin, especially the ones for my skin. The best handcreams I have are from Yves Rocher and also the best bodylotions.
So I want to introduce you to a bodyoil from Yves Rocher I have used for a while now. In german it is called the "2 Phasen Pflegeöl mit Haferextrakt für sehr trockene Haut", but I cant find the exact english name. My translation would be :2 phrases moisturizing bodyoil for dry skin with oat extract.
I also searched online at the ves Rocher online shop but I couldn't find this product but I don't think that I have bought it long ago. Strange...... 

BRAND: YVES ROCHER

TYPE OF PRODUCT: BODYOIL

WHERE TO BUY: ONLINESHOP OR REGULAR YR SHOP

PRICE: $10

VOLUME: 100ml

The design of the bottle is neat but nothing special I guess. Like it is handy because you simply spray on the product onto your body and rub the product onto your skin.

The product is a two phrase product wich means you have to shake it before you can use it.

The product contains oat extract and it also has a strong smell of it. It is not like I dont like it but I like some flowery or sweet scents much more. I have bought the product mainly because my legs are super dry and with shaving it is really bad. 

On thes super dry parts the product is really good. It is a body oil no a bodylotion so at least it should be a bit more moisturizing. And I guess thats why after like 5 to 10 minutes I still can feel this oily consistency onto my skin. It is ok because it feels like my skin is protected from loosing any moisture but with my legs always beeing dry it feels kind of uncompfortable for me. But I guess it is only because it is the absolute difference from my normal feeling. I also don't use the product every day. In winter it is nice to use it but it is also good in summer time, my legs need to be shaved every day to look good and without long trousers on my legs but with a short summer dress the legs feel good, too.

So regardless to the scent I think this body oil is really nice t my skin and easy to apply. Also it is easy to transport if you tarvel and need this extra moisture because of other water quality (My skin always struggle with different water qualities and gets dry or irritadet.).

I hope this review was helpfull for you an if you still have any questions please feel free to ask me! <3

[JOLSE] HOPE GIRL HONEY BEE ALL DAY FIXING MIST

[JOLSE] HOPE GIRL HONEY BEE ALL DAY FIXING MIST

by Rosalie

 

Hi Lovelies,
I struggle these days. I am a bit (tbh more than just a bit) unhappy and feeling lonely. So Violetta and me, we are thinking about adopting a cat. We are not sure because our appartment isn't the biggest and on weekend we often visit our family, and the cat would be a problem to handle. But I love cat's. They make my heart warm and adopting might help the cute cat from always living in an animal shelter. I DONT KNOW: I really would be happy to hear you oppinion about this topic. Please, should we get a cat or not??? 


Haha, anyway, lets talk about korean beauty! ;D
Today I want to write about the Honey Bee All Day Fixing Mist from the korean brand "Hope Girl".
I wrote about the moisturizing cream from the same line earlyer, I really liked the product. So I thought this product might be really good for my skin as well.

BRAND: HOPE GIRL

PRICE: $15

WHERE TO BUY (klick for the link)

TYPE OF PRODUCT: FIXING MIST

VOLUME: 80 ml

I got this product from jolse.com.

The product design is again cute and mostly inspired by honeycomb. It feels like high quality and easy to use. 

So using it is pretty simple. Just apply your makeup and after you are done you can shake the bottle and spray some mist onto your skin. The product itself should fix the makeup you have applyed for longer lasting and all day long fresh makeup. 

As I have used it how the description said I couldn't really see a difference. Of course the product is nice smelling, but to get some mist out of the bottle I have to spray really like 10 times (wich I think is a bit much...). The mositurizing effect wasn't noticable for me.
But if at least the makeup will stay longer I thought it will be ok to use it anyway. 

unshaked the liquid looks like water

how the mist looks like when you shake it, you need to shake it before you spray it onto your skin

In the following you can see different products on mine and Violettas arms, with and without the fixing mist.
We washed the products off, first with water and secound with soap. Just to see the differences in dissapearing. But to be honest, there was no difference.
So I could't feel the difference on my face and in the exact test there was also no difference.
So if you are asking me this product really does nothing tomy face. I was feeling like I get some pimples while I was using this product, can this be??

unwashed

washed with water

washed with soap

I also used the mist without makeup, just to see if there is any moisturizing effect or anything. But really, there was nothing. Just dissapearing mist on my skin. It could be water that I spray onto my face, not a expencive product.


advantages:
-nice smell
-cute design

dissadvantages:
-no fixing effect
-no mositurizing effect
-must spray many times to get something out of the bottle


So all in all the product is useless for me. I am really sad to say this, but I also want to let you know about products I dont like to use.


I hope this review was helpfull for you.

If you still have any questions please feel free to ask me. <3

TonyMoly "Panda's Dream - So Cool Eye Stick"

TonyMoly "Panda's Dream - So Cool Eye Stick"

by Rosalie

 

Hi Lovelies,
last week was really stressfull for me. I was on a longer tripwith my fellow students, we went to the "Heimtextil" fair (maybe you know it??) and presented our university. It was really interesting to see the latest trends in home textiles, the colors, the materials and all the people.

But let's put this aside, while traveling I always need my sample sized products and I wouldn't ignore my skincare things. I think it was kind of to much for me in this situation to put on some masks or something but moisturizer and makeup remover is always important. Also a nice travel size has the product I want to write about on this blogpost.

It is from the korean brand "TonyMoly", the cosmetic store "douglas" has some products from this brand in store now (in Germany), also this product. But I ordered it in korea online, because the products are much more expensive complained to the prices in korea. And I don't really care if I need to wait for 2 or 3 weeks till the product arrive. So just to tell you, of course it is up to you where you buy your products! ;) 

BRAND: TONYMOLY

PRICE: $8

VOLUME: 9g

TYPE OF PRODUCT: COOLING EYE STICK

The visual effect is like WOW, the product looks like a tiny panda. The small ears and the nice face. It is so cute. In general the product is really small. As I said in the beginning the size is really nice for travelling.

My eyes are really dry in winter times. I have trouble with my hwole skin but the eye area is really difficult. I already had a nice product for my eye area from Etudehouse but nevertheless I always want to try something new.


So the product is supposed to simpl apply at the area you wanted it.


As you can see the stick is kind of mint colored but also has a strong consistency. The smell of the product is also really nice and sweet. It is sweet but also fresh. But not permanent, just while I apply the stick I can smell a tiny bit but then the scent is gone.

After applying it feels like there is a thin layer on top of my eye. Like the stick doesn't really goes into my skin but gets dry and stayes there. This really was strange for me. Also after using it for a bit I can tell that I dont really could feel a moisturizing effect. There is a nice cooling effect, maybe because the cooling effect depends on this thin layer... I don't know. But my eyes getting dry and this thin layer... I dont really like to use this product in winter time. I will see how this product will work in hot summer ties but now I will left this out at my skincare routine.


advantages:

-cute design
-small size
-good cooling effect
-nice smell
-you can buy this product at a store (without online shopping) in Germany (let me know if you can buy this product at your country, too! <3

 

disadvantages:   

-thin layer stayes on my eyes after applying 

 -my eyes are getting dry


So all in all I dont really recommend to buy this product. I only can tell for winter time maybe I will write an update in summer but right now I only can tell that this product isn't nice for me. I am so sad about this.

If you still have any questions please feel free to ask me. <3
