~*~ October favorites ~*~

Hi, there~ ^-^
The beginning of the month is the time for previous month favorite cosmetic products! If you want to check up last months favorites, feel free to click the links below:


1. Skin care products
The weather is getting colder here, so I have to take more care about my skin. Last month I have been using new skin care products, I haven`t tried before. So far, all of them are super effective. ^^ What`s why they are in my list of favorite products. However, I have been using many other products as well. It is just they have already been in other monthly edition of favorite products. And I`ve decided there is no need to show them again and again. Just keep that in mind, and check the earlier versions of "favorites"! ^_-
Here are the products I want to show this time:


  1. The Face Shop RICE Ceramide moisture toner 150ml - my favorite Hadalabo lotion is coming to an end *sadly*, so I really needed a new product. This one was quite cheap, comparing to the other toners\lotions so I have decided to give it a try. Moreover, i like its characteristics and content. What can i say about it? This toner is a good moisturizer, which works perfectly in a tandem with the same emulsion (i always use them together). It keeps my skin away from dryness, which is very important during the cold season. I also like the softness i feel after using it~ ^-^
  2. The Face Shop RICE Ceramide moisture emulsion 150ml - actually, I can say the same things I have written about the toner (remember! I use toner and emulsion together). The only thing i want to add - I can use emulsion only in the evening, because it leaves some "shine", which doesn`t look appealing at my face ~lol So it is a big NO for morning routine, but a perfect choice for evening care! ^^
  3. MIZON Special Therapy Good Night white sleeping mask 50ml - I swear, this is like the best sleeping mask ever!!! It is a must if you have some blemishes or marks on you face, because it makes them less noticeable. This mask also makes my skin smooth and a little bit brighter *which I like a lot haha* It also keeps the moisture inside of the skin, so you might not even need to put some products on your face in the morning! 
2. Make up and other


  1. Maybelline Baby Skin instant pink transformer 30ml - This is a special product you can find only in Asian countries *if I am wrong, please, correct me* How it works? You can use it as a primer or a single product, it depends on your need and desirable effect. I, personally, use it alone or together with the powder, if I want my skin to stay matte. This product makes your skin tone better and more even. It brighten the skin and leaves a little "pinkish glow". *beware! if you have a reddish face this product is your enemy! ;o* So basically, it makes your skin look healthy and gives a nice shine. More than that, it also protects from the sun rays, as it has SPF 35/PA+++
  2. Tonymoly Baby Doll BB powder 15g - even though Innisfree No Sebum Mineral powder is currently #1 to me, this Tonymoly powder is still of of the best. Besides it works better in a cold season, when Innisfree powder is more suitable for warm days. It perfectly covers little "problems" on the face and makes the skin looks better over all. For me, it is enough to use this powder without any foundation or bb cream underneath.
  3. NIVEA Soft eye make-up remover lotion #for sensitive skin 125ml - this is the best eye make up remover! Korean removers can`t even compete with it! *and this is super rare case when i can say that Korean cosmetic products work worser than some other haha* This remover gently cleans your eyes. It can remove even "hard to remove" mascaras. And what I like a lot is that it doesn`t leave an oily feeling: it is like a water. ^-^  
  4. VOV Lip care balm #strawberry - this is a tinted lip balm with amazing strawberry scent! ~so yummy! It is a perfect choice for the ones, who wants to have some color and at the same time to protect their lips from dehydration. 
  5. SKINFOOD Black Bean eye brow pencil #black brown - this is a "two-side" pencil. There is a brow brush from the one side and a pencil - from the other. It is easy to apply the color on eye brows. And I can say the color lasts pretty long without any smudges. Yay for the pencil! kkk~

September favorites~!

Hello, guys~! ;p
How is October? Do you enjoy it~? We have already had snow.. at the end of September T_T so annoying! And today I have woken up just to see that the temperature outdoors was -5`C :o I hate living in the north
-_-`
Anyway, today I have finally decided to write another edition of "the favorite products of the month"! I know, it is kinda late, as half of the October has already passed, but I think it is better to do something late, than never, right? kk
By the way, if you want to know what I have been using (and liking) during past months, you are welcome to check - August and July favorites.

1. Skin care products


  1. Hadalabo Gokujyun Deep Moisturizing Lotion 170 ml - very good moisturizing product, which I have been using for more than 6 months now. It works the best if you apply the lotion right after cleansing your face. It makes the skin soft and healthy. Unfortunately, it is going to end this month t_t
  2. Dr.POST Snail Collagen Aquaring gel 300 ml - it hydrates, lifts and smooths skin. It is fine to use it all over your face and body. I, personally, apply it as a body "lotion" (gel). It works pretty good and keeps my skin moisturized. 
  3. Nature Republic AQUA super aqua max moisture watery cream 80 ml - i can use it at any part of the day, because it soaks fast and doesn`t leave "oily" shimmer on your face. These days I apply it in the morning as a base for powder (powder makes my skin dry, so such moisturizing cream is a must). O, and this cream is for dry skin! Beside this kind, there are also AQUA creams for both oily and normal skin types.

2. Make up and other


  1. Etude House Easy peel-off base coat 8 (?) ml - every girl who likes glitter and shimmery nail polishes must have such product! What you have to do with it is just to apply this coat as a base and after ~5 minutes put a glitter or shimmer on the top. When you get tired of your glitter, all you need is to peel of the color! ^^ Super fast and no harm to your nails!
  2. Maybelline Colorama Talisman collection #50 Amethyst 7,5 ml - very beautiful color with small shimmer. It looks amazing on nails!
  3. Essence Color & go #147 Miss Universe 8 ml - black color (base) with green and blue sparkles. Looks fantastic! ^^
  4. Etude House Apricot stick  #1 달콤 포도 - gives light pinkish color and smells like grapes ~so yummy!! >< 
  5. Holika Holika Wonder drawing eyeliner auto stick - the best way to use it, is to apply on water line. I prefer to apply it on upper water line - this way it is almost invisible but at the same time it makes your eyes brighter and more noticeable - looks super natural and beautiful! ^^

August favorites~!!

Hi, guys~! ^^
This entry is all about my favorite products of the month - August edition! ;p Thought, I have been using mostly the same products I have included in my July favorites (check it!!), I still have some new products I like a lot and which I want to show you, guys.
As I have done in previous "favorites", I will divide all products into two categories: skin care and make-up & other.

1. Skin care products
  1. MIZON Collagen Power firming eye cream 10 ml - I can`t say about great results yet, but I like how this cream makes the skin under eyes lighter and less "tired-looking".
  2. Nature Republic Herb Dressing Gold Honey foam cleanser 170 ml - Very soft foam with moisturizing effect. It cleanse very good and doesn`t leave my skin dry and irritated. I like to use it between my favorite SNP Pore cleansing foam.  
  3. Nature Republic Phyto Massage cream #Avocado 150 ml - Very rich nourishing cream! I use it ~once a week. It makes the skin smoother and softer.

2. Make-up and other
  1. Etude House DBR403 Royal Coral nail polish 10 ml (?) - vivid color and dries fast!! The color reminds me of some yummy water-melon kk It looks super pretty on nails. ^^
  2. Etude House PPK006 파티러버 nail polish 10 ml (?) - nail polish has light lavender color with lots of beautiful sparkles of different kinds. I like to apply it on all nails, or just to make an accent on one nail.
  3. Innisfree Eco volume mascara #black 6 g - good mascara with the "natural volume" effect. It has classic nice brush which I like so much. ^^ It easy to apply and remove it. 
That`s all for this edition! ;p What are your favorite cosmetic products of the month? Do you like something from my favorites too?

  4. The Face Shop Mini Pet Sweet hand cream 30 ml - very cute packaging with a good moisturizing hand cream in it.
