[Review] Etude House CC Cream in Silky

I haven't had the time to post things because our house internet line had gone completely loopy and we had to keep asking them to fix it. But, it's stable...for now. So I'll try to put in as much reviews as I can as I had gone loopy myself and bought tons of makeup that my friends might do an intervention for me XD

Let's start aye ^^
This is mine ^^

I've actually had it for quite some time now (few months) and I got it off roseroseshop.com. Their store is amazing and the shipping is great. :) I don't remember the price but I think it was around GBP 10-13.

It claims to have 8 multi-functions in 1 (don't know if I wrote that correctly but bah) haha. [this are what it says on the box)
  • Anti-Aging
  • Stress Relief
  • Hydration
  • Whitening
  • Sun Protection
  • Tone Up
  • Smooth Texture
  • Luminosity
1) Anti-Aging and Stress Relief
I don't really know about it's anti-aging and stress relieving properties but I guess it's in the ingredients. sorry~
However, it does have a a scent that makes me happy when I apply it so it somewhat relieves my getting ready in the morning stress. ㅋㅋㅋ

2) Hydration
It's a water based cream so it moisturizes the skin. I use it after I apply my moisturizer so it's hard to tell if gives good hydration or not. I do notice it emphasized my dry areas though, but that can be prevented if you exfoliate well. ^^ (It's autumn so my face gets dry far too quickly for my liking)

3) Whitening
This I agree, it really brightens my skin so I often use it under my eyes first. Then, I would either apply it onto areas that need brightening or to my whole face. Depends on whether I'll be using any BB cream or foundation afterwards. I do secretly hope it magically whitens my skin in the long run. >__<

4) Sun Protection
The cream contains an SPF of 30/ PA++ so you can skip the sunscreen if you won't be under the sun the whole day. It's bad if you're planning to take any flash photography because it will just reflect the light and make you look bad. :(

5) Tone Up and Smooth Texture
hmmm..This seems to relate about making your face feels smoother after application. It makes a good make-up base or primer. XP

6) Luminosity
It suppose to give you a healthy kinda glow which I like because my skin is normally dull and gloomy so it makes me look fresh when I use it. ~happy girl~

Swatches on my hand and face :)

It has micro capsules that burst when you rub them

You'll end up with this colour

Then blend it more
On ma face

bare faced with redness and dark eye circles

hard to find the same lighting

The redness is gone and under eye circle is brightened up a little bit

I still have to use some concealer under my eyes.
It has a really light coverage compare to bb creams and I actually use this on a day to day basis.

I would totally repurchase it, maybe in glow but I also want try the other cc creams in the market. ^^
Though I do love my etude house. ㅋㅋ

I hope you guys enjoyed this review now. Bye~ :))

Tony Moly Cat Chu Wink in Orange Cha Cha

I've been using this tint for a while now. It took me some to think before buying it because I don't have really good experience with liquid tints. Hahaha XP
My lips are too sensitive and they crack easily. I dread winter. =___=

I bought this is Malaysia for RM29.90. I decided to go for orange because I now have a love for orange lips..hahaha. 


It's easy to bring around and it doesn't leak..thankfully. It's a very vivid orange so use with care XD
It's not really thick but it's not too thin of a liquid. Kinda in the middle and moisturising but it does gets dry overtime so keep a lip balm handy if you guys are such sensitive princesses like me. Haha


This is a collage of me sloppily putting it on my lips creating such a weird look and I ended up have to put my revlon tutti fruti on top to cover it because I was going out after that. I recommend putting one layer then dab evenly with your finger. Layer it again if you want. I usually go for 2 layers anyway. ^____^ 

For smell, it does have a mandarin smell which a lot of orange tints have and trust me, don't taste it. Hahaha

Staying power...quite long if you don't too much oily food or if you don't lick your lips too much. Good thing it's handy to carry around. 

안녕~ 행쇼~<3

Simple Cleansing Facial Wipes

I've been using this wipes for almost a year now so now I'm gonna share with you guys my experience. Woohoo. 

This is how it looks like
You can get it very easily in any leading pharmacies or stores and it costs about <RM15 in Malaysia and <£5 in the UK (I don't really remember but I know it's very cheap in the UK since it's the place of origin) 



It claims to be good for sensitive skin since they are the "sensitive skin experts" so those with sensitive skins should probably give these wipes a try. I myself have had no bad experience with it


The texture is very nice and you will feel quite refresh after using them. There is a smell but it's not really strong and overpowering. It feels cool when you apply it to the face. 


I had already removed the makeup on my left side...hahahaha. The right side still has makeup..


This is how my face looks like completely without makeup on (I look tired...hahah). I don't use a lot of products on my face but I do have a considerate amount of concealer around my eyes so you can probably tell the difference between the first photo and this. 


This is the product removed from the right side of my face. 

My face definitely feel very refreshed and clean after wiping the makeup off and I don't worry about having makeup residues on my face. 

It's 5/5 for me. 
Happy trying. 안녕 x 뿅

Etude House Dear My Jelly Lips Talk JOR202

Firstly, I want to express my small disappointment after finding out that this lipstick did turn out to be that orangey colour  that I hoped for but I have learned to love that colour, so no problem. 



In my opinion, there is not much difference to JPK001. Both are pinkish tints and both are effectively keeping my lips moist and healthy-looking. ^^<3

This is a picture of 1) nothing on the lips 2) first application and 3) second application
I'm not fond of bright lip colours so I just put it on lightly so you don't really see much difference there but the colour does intensifies if you apply more and maybe stay on longer. 

So, just like jpk001, this
a) does not dry out my lips (even without lip balm)
b) smells nice but won't taste or smell it anymore after application
c) cute packaging
d) lasts for a long time (even after eating and drinking, still depends on what you take though, I think)

Since this lipstick does not dry out my lips, I'm gonna look at more shades when I go to korea. 안녕~ for now. ^^

How to find your comment on youtube

Have you guys ever want to look at the comments you made on a video but due to the video having so many response, you can't really be bother to scroll through the whole comments section to look for your comment.

Well, I have finally found a video that had helped me look for my comment out of a 10,000+ comments!

Another way is that I had enable an option on youtube for all my comments to be shared on twitter. For example, if comments for a specific video needs to be approved by the channel person before getting posted, I would know that my comments have been approved when it shows up on my twitter account.

This doesn't work for previous comments made prior to enabling this option. so that's a downside of it.

Good lucks guys ^___^

iPhone Fotorus Photo Editor Application

Hi there guys ^^
I just want to share my insights on one of my many photo editors on my iphone.



The application is called Fotorus, you guys can get it from itunes here

I actually got this app because I've been seeing a lot of my friends using it and their pictures came out so nice so I decided to give it a try.

and guess what? I love it! ha





 this is what you'll see when you open it

there are basically 4 different types of photo editing that you can do.
1. Pro edit: to edit your current pictures
2. Collage: to make a set of different photos together
3. PIP: stands for "picture in picture". basically self-explanatory.
4. GIF: to make a short animated picture

I mainly use number 1 and 2 and most of my photos are edited through them before I post them to the general public. haha
well, that's one secret out of the bag. XD

they are fairly easy to use and difficulties are hard to find but for making gifs, once done, they will only be saved under fotorus and you won't find it in your camera roll. don't ask me..I don't know either.
I ended up emailing my gif to myself. hahaha


 This is me being silly with the collage function

there are a lot of different background themes and color that you can choose from and of course filters as well...
I don't really remember what theme I used for this, elegant maybe.

just telling - ab color is the filter that gives you orange lips in case there are some people out there who are looking for this. (speaking out of experience here.. haha)

fotorus don't have any stickers like cymera does but it's still good. sometimes stickers are really bothersome anyways.. >__<


this is the picture in picture function.

you can actually change the background or front image and the type of pips but this is how it looks like when you take a picture in this function.

I think it's quite cool actually, it makes your photos look somewhat artsy perhaps..hehe

I also added a filter here..something that I thought looked nice at the time so I don't remember the name. ha

some of the filters does make your pictures look more presentable.

 photo myrarmgif.gif

and this is my first ever gif..hahah. I called it rawrm..
I captured it and the effects are provided but limited. It not hard to use at all. ^^
Post edit: this feature is no longer available and you need to download a separate app for this. Haven't done this but I'm pretty sure it won't be that different. Hahaha x darn

So, if any of you guys are interested.. go on. download it! haha

any questions please leave a comment. signing off ^__^ see ya guys later.

Smiiiile ^^

Make up reviews comiiiing up! and those incredibly sexy youtubers!

Since it's the summer holidays, I think I'm gonna update my blogs with the stuff I'm loving lately...

but I'm going to let you guys in on this as well...I'm terribly addicted to youtubers, especially british ones because since my youtube channel has been updated to the UK, I have been recommended by these wonderful vloggers (video bloggers)...they are just like bloggers just that they talk to a camera.

I would love to try vlogging but I'm terrible at talking, even in front of a camera. luckily my dream job is not to be an actress.. I would fail miserably.

maybe I'll try to talk about my life in the uk once in a while..for those who are interested and maybe those who might be coming to The Great Britain for studies like moa~ it's like giving an inkling of the life here I guess. x

my favorite youtubers!

Dear My Jelly Lipstick JPK001

This lipstick is under Etude House Sweet Recipe collection. 💋
I bought it from f2plus1 on ebay and it came last week. ^^

The awesome thing about this lipstick is that it's a tint 😊 and I love tints..haha
And it actually gives your lips a pinkish colour once you've applied it.

The lipstick itself is very moisturising and it doesn't dry out my lips at all which most lipstick would do. The staying power is very good because I used it for zumba and though I kept drinking, it stayed on beautifully~ 💞

It costs around £6 - £7 on ebay but it's RM59.90 back in malaysia..

I'm totally gonna buy some more later..just hope they won't melt in malaysia. Haha

Revlon super lustrous lipstick in 430 Softsilver Rose

I did some research before buying this color because I was afraid that it might not suit me well...

But, it turned out that it was quite a nice color. It seemed kind of pale pink in pictures but it is actually quite pigmented. It does have like a silver shimmer but it's very nice.

It has quite good staying power and it does not really dry out my lips too much but I still use lip balm under it.
Overall, I did not regret buying it.
The price is £7.49 but I got mine from ebay..>___<

Poaro 74 - Murder on the Orient Express (2010)

This episode was quite cold (literally) and tragic...
The scoundrel might have escaped justice once but there are always people out there who remembers with revenge in their mind...

Here I saw for the first time, Poirot being so angry to everyone and to himself...I would not blame him...
I would have probably done the same thing even if it kills me..
The ending was a bit in between being disappointing and grateful for me.

I have not read the book but I expect it would not divert so far in poirot's cases.
Would really recommend this episode for Poirot and Agatha Christie fans..

[Review] COSRx Centella Blemish Ampoule and Blemish Cream

Hi lovelies, June already aye... Lemme me just say, I haven't been going out of the house nor have I been using makeup for the last 3 mo...
