Whats up beautiful humans, so March 2014 is a couple of hours away from being over. Time is flying, it seems like it was only yesterday that we entered into 2014 itself but I guess that's far from being true. Its april fools tomorrow so watch your backs everyone! So since March is over I've decided to do a favourites post that I have wanted to do for a long time now but couldn't since sixth form has been taking up my life. Exams are coming along so quickly too, I don't think I'm ready but I don't exactly have a choice…education is education.
Here is the first item that has creeped into my favourites for March.
1. This is the Nature Republic Soothing & Moisture Aloe Vera 92% Soothing Gel.
This Aloe Vera Gel has become a favourite of mine when I purchased it a while back, the container includes 300ml of goodness and is just overall the perfect item to have. It is great on sensitive skin and there are many ways of using this. This is great for dry skin which I tend to have especially when it was winter, this product really helped a lot. I would usually put a layer of this on my face after I have toned and moisturised and I sleep with it on and the next morning my skin feels so much softer and more hydrated. You can use this on your body, face and even your hair and no it doesn't leave your hair greasy since it is 92% of organic aloe vera.
I highly recommend this product since its affordable and you get so much out of it ^^
2. The second product that has made its way through to my March favourites is the Etude House Precious Mineral Any Cushion.
[Shade W13 Natural Beige]
I've used this product so much that it is nearly finished, this is the first cushioned foundation that I have used and I have to say it is pretty amazing. I am usually more of a BB cream user but this foundation is so light on the skin, it doesn't feel cakey and it has medium to high coverage. What I love about this is that it has SPF50+/PA+++ which is pretty darn good, its great when I'm feeling particularly lazy and can't be bothered to but on sunscreen, just wearing this would be fine. Using this is great if you want that dewy look too which is usually what I go for but if not its okay you can just dust your face with a little powder and you're good to go! I do recommend this if you're looking into some Cushioned BB Creams or Foundations ^_~
3. This is another Etude House product, which is the Correct & Care 8 in 1 Multi Function CC Cream.
[Shade Glow]
This CC Cream is the first CC Cream I have tried and I have been loving it. You can wear this on its own but the coverage isn't that amazing so if you feel the need then you can apply your favourite BB Cream or Foundation over it. Wearing it under a foundation will still give you that glowing look, this product has SPF30/PA++ which is good for wearing as a sunscreen. You can look good whilst be protected from the harsh sun rays ^^ But if you're looking for a high coverage CC Cream then I don't recommend this for you.
4. This is yet another Etude House product, this is the Sweet Recipe Baby Choux Base.
[Shade in no.3 Peach]
I'm going to be honest here, I've had a good and bad experience with this product but I can finally say that I am adoring this product. This particular base in shade peach is for people with a dark and yellow skin tone. This product is extremely pale once put on which is nice for those who are aiming for a lighter look. There is a little bit of coverage in this which is nice to be put under your BB cream etc so it just gives you that little extra. The texture is slightly strange to me since it has little grains in it, which isn't a problem but its not as smooth as I thought it would be when I saw it advertised. There was time when my skin was really dry and it just didn't work with this product it made my dry patches more obvious and flaky so I had stopped using it but I thought i'd give it another go and its now one of my favourite base makeup. The smell of this product is extremely pleasant kind of like peaches and cream…hah and the packaging is so freaking cute and princessy.
That's pretty all my favourites for this month and these are products I use a lot, I of course will recommend these for you but it really depends on your skin type, have fun discovering and investing in new products…good luck ^^ Saranghaeyo <3
