It balances out my skin tone, and it really does what it says...It also kind of hides my dark circles, just a little bit, not a whole lot (but thats because I have hereditary dark circles...)

Beauty DIY: whitening/fair/tan be gone mask

ok ok,a pretty lame title, hehe well, today i wanna share with you guys a mask that can make your skin better, just like my first DIY post on keeping your eyelashes thicker and longer , this requires only one main ingredient , you can view that post here (click)

heres my inspiration

I love Barbie Hsu's skin! And she is so pretty, I wish I could be like her, but not much help yet I can't really buy those great luxurious beauty product that she uses, I opt for using cheaper whitening products and so today, the mask I want to share with you guys can help in being a step closer to having great beautiful skin like her! =]

okay This mask has tons of great results, after using it, your face would experience immediate whitening, and tan would be gone , pores would shrink, and your face becomes poreless, oil balancing, and improvement on wrinkles (i dont have wrinkles but haha yeah), good texture, and mini- lifts your face, and supple skin

Before I give you the DIY RECIPE, i wanna tell you more about it. Okay, so dont worry, this mask is good for All skin types! (yay) and an whole egg can be used for the entire family, (but if your the only one that uses it then its okay dont freak, u wont have to waste the egg white, save the leftover egg white in a bottle, or ziploc bag, or any container then put it in your refrigerator (it will be fresh for a week).

DIY RECIPE:

Materials

1)Egg (but you only need the egg white)

2)Spoon

3) Bowl

How?

1) gather your three materials together

2) crack the egg and separate it,
put egg white into the bowl

3) Now your all set and ready, just apply it onto
your entire face,but remember to avoid the eye area
and mouth area, you can apply it using a brush or
your fingers, but it tends to be a bit messy
(Tip: use upward motions when applying mask, if
you want your face lifted or wrinkle improvement)

4) When you apply the mask, you will start
feeling the maskworking, you will feel
the tighness, the lifting,then Wash off with
water after 15 minutes or when it dries up

and yay^_^! A happy day after using the mask

Yah,happy -_- except the part that I had to do homework

Beauty Product Review: Ahava Mineral Hand Cream

Hi everyone, first of all I want to say THANKS…thanks for my followers, you guys follow even though my blog is still boring and just began. Thanks for following, it makes me want to continue blogging :]

Okay well today I want to review and tell you guys about the Ahava Mineral Hand Cream. Nowadays everyone wants to use natural stuff, and this line of product is from the Dead Sea.

Okay First Impressions: When I first saw this bottle I thought it was just another one of those hand creams, and ergh blah blah blah, but what got me into buying this was that it was from the dead sea and contained minerals. So then I bought it while I was at Costco

What it’s supposed to do:

“For All Skin Types, Approved for Sensitive Skin, Hypoallergenic, Dermatologically Tested

Mineral Hand Cream specially enriched with Mineral Skin Osmoter- AHAVA Natural Dead Sea Complex.

A luxuriously rich cream drenches the hands in velvety smoothness. Treats skin to deep-down nourishment. Formulated to calm and soften rough hands to a surprisingly smooth texture. Apply anytime throughout the day for immediate relief and improvement.”

My Review on the Product:

Before going to be bed I got about a quarter amount onto my hands. Then wow, it seriously does exactly what it says. It is so awesome. Leaved my hands velvety smooth. I definitely recommend this to everyone. (But since it is too thick of moisture, I won’t recommend using in the summer. Because your hands would be sweaty) This is just excellent product, and I would definitely want to buy it again.

My rating for this product is a 5star/5star!

Beauty Product Review: Shills Perfect Brightening BB cream

Yay my first beauty products review....
Okay heres what got me interested with this product

" Experience the brilliant brightness of a real Swarovski crystal casted on a classic pink designed bottle. A star rises amongst the various facial foundations.
The BB foundation crème turns into micro water droplets when applied; this promotes faster absorption and forms a water-lock soft film on the skin.
It moisturizes skin and controls oil shine at the same time. Experience a “light”, “transparent” and "bright” perfect skin; achieve a flawless make-up complexion just like a ceramic doll.


Shills Ceramic BB Flawless Foundation is a must-have for your make-up. With a light pink tone and 3D pearlescent pigments, it helps to modify flaws on the skin, face looks brilliant and glossy after application, a definitely show for a perfect face."

wow..right? lets see, if it really does what it says its supposed to do

My Review
I was happy when it came in a sweet package ...I had to order it online here: http://e-onestopbeautyshop.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=1_18&products_id=520
(its a really great site, cheaper than many other sites on buying Taiwan beauty products, I recommend this site for people that dont live in Taiwan)

okay so when I go it , reading the usage, it says "Usage: Use after your basic skin care routine. Can be used as a concealer, make-up foundation or a UV protects cream. Can be applied to hands and legs too."
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So I started using it in the morning before going off to school :] I got a quarter size and applied it evenly onto my entire face. Looking at the mirror and seeing my compleaxion was great it gotten brighter and as I looked closer I could really see glitter like effects. The moisture is perfect for my combination skin, so I believe it would be great for about all skin types. But the bad thing about it is that it does not hide my dark circles, it helps my pimples because I dont really have that much, I just have small pinples on my forehead. It covers a little bit, not much ..its just a sheer coverage so dont think of it as soing wonders. But seriously I love the smell, it has a light rose like smell. Overall its just okay, not the best bb cream, but its good enough for the price.

I rate this a 3.5star/5star
