Luxe Organix Soothing Gel Aloe Vera and Snail

Many new brands are coming up at the drugstore with great and affordable products. While looking at the skincare section I stumble across the brand Luxe Organix made in Korea (and my inner Kbeauty addict is shouting in excitement) it's so interesting that I had to look all of the product and one of which that caught my attention is the Soothing Gel Aloe Vera and Snail. I immediately look at its ingredients and wow! I saw snail filtrate and my fave ingredient Centella Asiatica. I ended up buying it and share my thoughts with you. Lovely texture isn't it? 💦 Consistency: gel type Texture: watery gel, not stringy at all unlike other snail products, not sticky and easily absorbed by the skin.  Scent: it is mildly fragrant but disappears after a min.  My personal experience:  Honestly, I am skeptical to try aloe gel because I had a bad relationship with it in the past. I tried an aloe vera gel (Korean brand) and the first thing that I

BLK Cosmetics Universal Skin Tint Sun Shield

blk UNIVERSAL "Universally flattering, multi-use, and on-the go essentials designed for everyone" Blk releases their new makeup line with the tag "Uncomplicated Beauty" with new packaging style that suits for all. I love its classy and minimalist look.  I got the shade Vanilla: the lightest among the 4 shades  It has a yellow undertone that perfectly suits pinay skin.

Propolis: Cosrx Ultimate Moisturizing Honey Overnight Mask and iUNIK Propolis Vitamin Synergy Serum

Propolis is a new addition to my skincare routine, and I find that my skin loves it so much the more I use it. The combo products that my skin's been loving lately are the:  COSRX Ultimate Moisturizing Honey Overnight Mask and the iUNIK Propolis Vitamin Synergy Serum. I incorporate these with my nighttime skincare routine and waking up with a well-rested, calmed, nourished and glowy skin. COSRX Ultimate Moisturizing Honey Overnight Mask  gel-like consistency 💛 Don't be mislead by its name, this doesn't have honey it in instead it has 87% propolis extract and natural beeswax designed to soothe, calm and moisturize the skin overnight. I love its clear gel-like consistency that is easily absorbed by my skin feeling it nourished and moisturized without the heavy or greasy residue. Though this has PEG-60 Hydrogenated Castor Oil that I should be aware of its possibility to irritate my skin, gladly this doesn't give me any breakouts or skin irritation, un

Review: Purito Centella Green Level Buffet Serum

In search of a great serum to address my multiple skin concerns. I came across the brand Purito which is widely used by so many skincare enthusiasts. I read good reviews and results of the product that's why I didn't have any second thoughts on trying it.   Purito is a brand that claims to be SAFE, NATURAL, SAVE ANIMALS and ENVIRONMENT which caters "safe and honest" products.  Ok. Let me share with you why I picked this serum out of numerous ones out there. First, I was caught on the brand philosophy being "safe and honest" about their products. As a consumer and skincare enthusiast, there are certain things that I consider in buying and testing out products and that is "what, where and how" is the product being made. Besides, I should be aware of what I put on my skin.  Personal Experience :    I love serums that are light, breathable, hydrating and soothing and this serum caters all of that. This serum has plenty of gre

Updated Review: COSRX Light Fit Real Water Toner to Cream

First, let me just say how innovative this product is! Creating a 2 in 1 product that carries the 2 basic steps in skincare which is the toner and moisturizer. This is also great for those on the go gals who don't have the luxury of time to layer products in the morning. Love the packaging! 💗 It looks fresh and clean (minimalistic) I love that it comes in a pump nozzle bottle. It is a gel-cream that turns into water droplets once applied on the skin.  It is a lightweight moisturizer and a hydrating toner that feels comfortable on the skin. I don't feel any greasiness at all after it sets. It has a light citrusy scent (probably because of the Bergamot oil present in the ingredients). It is hydrating enough for my sensitive oily-dehydrated skin. I tried two layers of this and it still feels comfortable. It is well absorbed by my skin thus living it supple and brightened afterward.  I haven't experienced any bad reaction (tingling, tiny bumps, redn
