Pyunkang Yul Essence Toner

I've been meaning to getting into using Korean skincare more, but my current stash is pretty full and I just didn't want to add even more products to the already long line waiting to be used. Finally I realised that there was a product that I could add and use straight away. An Essence. Although this wasn't a step in my routine, it is a product that many Korean women are not without. It is applied after toner to add hydration which in turn helps with the absorption of serums and moisturisers.

 I was overwhelmed by the wide range of essences available on the market. Not surprisingly, I was led by a sale on Yesstyle and decided to try the Pyunkang Yul Essence Toner.

Taken from Yesstyle- "A hydrating toner formulated with hydroxyethyl cellulose, arginine and astragalus root extract to enhance skin texture."

 The essence toner is packaged in a dark plastic bottle containing 200 ml of product. The bottle has a flip-top lid with a small hole under the cap. It is a gel-like fluid consistency. I can't detect any scent.

 I did begin by dispensing a small amount of the essence toner on a cotton pad and applying to my face and neck area, but I really wanted to apply directly to my skin. Now I use a regular toner on a cotton pad, then pour a small amount of this product into my palms and pat onto my skin.

 The gel like consistency of this essence absorbs quite quickly, my skin just drinks it up. Once absorbed my skin feels soft and smooth. I have also noticed the serums and moisturiser that I follow in my skincare routine do seem to absorb better. I also appreciate the extra hydration that my skin is getting and seems to be loving.

 The Pyunkang Yui Essence Toner is a win for me!

    I know what you mean about not wanting to add even more products to the long line of those waiting to be used. I have a similar dilemma.

    This essence however does sound like a great addition to your skincare routine that you could start using straight away.

BH Cosmetics Carli Bybel Deluxe Palette and Giveaway

Image
When BH Cosmetics released the original Carli Bybel palette I was tossing up whether I was going to purchase it or not. Sure, it was pretty with lovely neutral shades, but I was trying to cut down my eye shadow palette buying to only palettes that I really, really had to have and I wasn't convinced that was the case. When the Carli Bybel Deluxe version was released containing 15 shadows and 6 highlighters as opposed to the original which had 10 eye shadows and 3 highlighters, I had to have it. I went as far as pre-ordering the palette before it was even released. The sneak peek swatches had won me over! Taken from BH Cosmetics - "This palette features 11 original shades plus 10 chic new shadows and highlighters in buttery blendable formulas with staying power." The palette is a large square with magnet closure and complete with a cardboard sleeve. The palette is so pretty, I love the rose gold writing on the quilted pintuck background design. Opening the palet...

BYS Berries Palette

Image
I have bought from the brand BYS in the past, but I can't say I've actually sought out anything from them. Well, that was until I saw swatches popping up on my Instagram feed of the Berries palette.  It's a 12 pan palette and has a similar vibe going on to the much loved and raved about ABH Modern Renaissance palette. Of course, I do not own the pricier ABH palette, but I just had to have the Berries palette. Taken from BYS - "BYS Berries Eye Shadow Palette features an array of 12 expertly chosen, highly pigmented matte and metallic eye shadows. The 12 piece palette comes housed in a modern, embossed tin. featuring a mirror and 2 dual end applicators." The tin packaging of this palette is really cute, it reminds me of the Naked 2 and 3 palettes. It is a little bulky, but I like it. Let's take a peek inside Oh yes, I'm all about those warm orange and plum tones. There are 3 shimmery shades and the rest are matte. Here's the sw...

It's Skin Power 10 Formula VC Effector

Image
I was once again sucked into buying some bargain products from Ozsale . Part of my order was 4 serums from the brand It's Skin. Being a Korean brand I really wanted to try some products. I couldn't find a lot of information about It's Skin online, but the Power 10 Formula range sounded pretty good. I really wanted to try them all at once, but to get an idea of how each serum performed I restrained myself by using one serum at a time. The first one I tried was the VC Effector. The serum is no longer available on Ozsale, but I found it for sale on Beauty Bay - "A clarity improving skin serum designed for all skin types. Enriched with a blend of naturally derived, active ingredients, the It's Skin Power 10 Formula VC Effector worfs effectively to reduce the appearance of discolouration and dark spots. With a lightweight serum texture its quickly absorbed into the skin offering brightening and lightening effects, whilst simultaneously suppressing melanin prod...
