Dearberry Mona Lisa Eyebrow Pencil (Coffee Brown) Review



Can you see just how youthful having well-groomed and full brows appear on me?  (well not always!  The shade has to be right too!)  

Thankfully, I've found another inexpensive brow pencil alternative to those who can't seem to find one that they would call "my daily brow bestie".

Read further because this pencil impressed me so much I actually can't wait until the end of this post to say so!

Housed in a simple brow pencil, it comes with a retractable brow pencil end and a spoolie brush on the other side.  I was actually judging this as a bit too boring for my taste.  I mean seriously, a Korean Brand should always be cute right? :P  

But for once, I can let the cuteness (or non-cuteness) slide because the product itself speaks for itself!

Leaders Mediu 3-Step Vitamino Calming Mask Review





So I've been using Leaders Insolution masks/products for a year now!  I am quite confident my skin is well adapted and is "used to" with the ingredients used by the brand!  So on my last Leaders Insolution Store visit at Lucky Chinatown Mall, I've decided to give their Mediu 3-Step Vitamino Calming Mask a try.

When it comes to masks, I know most Koreans would go for several steps, as for me, it's always Mask then go to sleep directly, I don't even follow up with a moisturizer because I'm really scared of my sensitive skin acting up.  I guess my skin has really been acting up for the past weeks I finally raised my arms and say: "What the heck?"

Etude House Lips x Tint Twin Shot Review (Mug x Chai Shot)





Christmas may be over but the Christmas-feel and spirit should always be there!  It isn't difficult when I have a simple yet feel-good makeup on!  My recent purchase from Etude House called Twin Shot Lips x Tint in Mug x Chai Shot is no exception!  It gives me that Christmas-y feel and the name reminds me so much of the "Soju Shots" I had with my Beauty Blogging Friends with AGC's Andrea!

Etude House Twin Lipx x Tint Twin Shot is one of the most recent release for lip products from the brand aside from their new colors of matte lipsticks!  I am actually interested with this product immediately after laying my eyes on the tester because of the easy ombre lips this may give!  I also grabbed this for the fact that I can own 2-3 shades of lip color aside from creating gradient lips!  


YUP, that's me, trying to maximize the use of each product!
