[Korean Cosmetic Makeup Blogger] Boosting Essence! Miracle Seed Essence

Boosting Essence! Miracle Seed Essence

Name : Primera Miracle Seed Essence
Original Price/ Amount : 45,000 Won / 150ml
If you want me to get it for you just ask XD
email : myteacupstory@gmail.com

Another Brand that I'm falling in LOVE~!
This brand decided to not to do glamours and large ads to promote their brand
But only with their pure and natural products.

Those glamours and large ads promoting brand 
(no matter how natural they say they are) their product has a lot of chemicals inside them
I suggest you to take a look at this Primera (the REAL Natural cosmetic)
So what so special about Primera
You all heard of Fermentation right?
There is a lot of Korean Cosmetic that use this natural fermentation
to strengthen the effect

Primera went even forward and decided to do Germination
So. what is Fermentation and What is Germination?

Fermentation : using natural existing enzymes to change the essence into something very different, like using yeast to make beer!

Germination : using the special energy inside a seed that makes this seed a large tree

Primera took notice of the brilliance in the strength of nature and life
and took that energy to make cosmetic

Currently Primera is helping schools and organization that try to study the strength of nature and help preventing them. 
I heard they are funding them with the percentage of their income.
So when you buy their stuff you're saving NATURE XD

Today I'm going to introduce one of their product
Miracle Seed Essence



This is usable in the morning and in the night
All type of skin can use this!

This product used Lotus seed as their main ingridient
This product as 93.1% or Lotus Seed Extraction!

They studied Lotus Seed and found out that 
lotus seed has great ability in protecting, renewing, and purification


This product will whiten your skin and help recover your skin
you can use this twice a day in the morning and before you sleep!
it says use 2.5 ml when you use it


When I first read that use 2.5ml
I though "Do I have to get my beakers on my LAB?"
and then I noticed the markings as you see on this pic
I guess I don't need those beakers XD


I like the fact that Primera didn't use some cheap stuff for the lid 
it had extra coverage to keep dust off from the liquid


This product is good to use a cotton pad when applying


not applied / 7 days / 10 days / 15 days
I know... it's hard to tell the difference with this pictures
But if you can see the red patch inside the skin disappeared on 15th day
the bumpy rough skin texture turned soft so it's hard to see cracks on the skin on the 15th day

I love the effect of this product
especially how fast the lotion absorb!
You know how if you put on a lot of skin care product too fast
it feels like you put on skins of layer on your skin?
Bit sticky and just too wet to do makeup?
Well, this essence really help my skin care products to absorb faster
and my makeup looked so nice!

This product also did testing on humans of all age and ask when did they notice difference on their skin

80% people on the 3 day of using this they found difference on their skin texture
86% people on the 6th day of using this they found difference on their skin tone
87% people on the ninth day find their skin transparency different!

That a real high acknowledgement especially on a essence,
Essence is not so easy to see a big difference like you can see on the picture above
However a lot of people felt a change!
It's time for your skin to change TOO! XD

What you can expect from this product : 
-Soften your skin texture
-Clear up your color tone
-Make your skin transparent
-Help the next makeup product absorb well

I wanna a take a special thanks to everyone who have trust me 
and allow me to shop stuff for them!
Thank you All!

[Korean Cosmetic Makeup Blogger] The Face Shop Face it Velvet Skin Primer, Best product from Blind Testing



Name : Face it Primer Velvet Skin
Origial Price / Amount : 14,900 / 30ml
If you want me to get it for you just ask XD
email : myteacupstory@gmail.com

I love the amount!
Most Primers is in small amount I liked how much there was inside this bottle
I don't use a lot of primers
If I use them I usually mix it with cream foundation
However I felt this is a good product to start
If you are not use to using primers


Pumping type
Good to control the amount XD


The texture was very soft
It wasn't those creamy type of primers.
To those who have use creamy type of primers may now how those cream feels heavy
and could melt and go matty.
The Face shop Face it Velvet Skin Primer Doesn't

This product felt like skin so it clings to your skin well,
and it feels like a soft thin layer is covering your skin 
instead of having a heavy thick cream coated your skin XD

When I applied this on my skin I like the clean feeling afterwards.
If felt good :)

Applied / Not applied

I'm not sure if you can tell the difference!
I felt my pores have been covered well and my skin feels so velvet silky

This cream has no oil so it is great for those with oily skin
This product may not be for dry skin people
I heard some dry skin people felt too much tightening after few hours of this cream
I think the tightening is from all that pore covering this cream has

I suggest dry skin use The Face Shop Moisture Fitting Primer
(I'll be writing this soon)
It's the same line but for people with dry skin

Where to Buy

[Korean Cosmetic Makeup Blogger] Innisfree Wine Peeling Jelly Softener

Getting off dead skin cells is important if you are a EVERYDAY-MAKEUP-PERSON. You know sometimes your makeup kinda melt downs no matter how much you layer it on your skin? I'm sure some experience how scrubs irritate your skin because of all those little particles that suppose to rub off dead skin cells but end up rubbing your perfectly normal skin cells that makes irritation even worse cause skin rash?

If you are afraid of those rough scrubs there is one scrubs that you can use instead.

I was kinda reluctant to do a review these days.. my sensitive skin is being really pain in the neck! I have bit of red acne partying here and there... when you have sensitive skin you can't always have pretty skin... I know many bloggers have very beautiful face and skin so I was little embarrassed to upload pictures in this state. I felt this product is good for those who has sensitive skin and I had to write a review XD


Name : Innisfree Wine Peeling Jelly Softener
Origianal Price / Amount : 10,000 / 180ml
If you want me to get it for you just ask XD
email : myteacupstory@gmail.com


y_y have requested I did a review on Innisfree Wine Peeling Jelly Softener!
Go to my blog home and click on Product Review Request!
You can request a review like y_y did XD


There's English! XD
Remember to peal off the Korean page to see the English page!
You can see the "Directions" and "Ingredients"


I love the scent because I smelled like wine XD
It smelled so like a sweet grape so sweet it reminded me of candy
I love wine I think I'm gonna drink this stuff! LOL

I understand some may feel the scent too much

I didn't like the lid because it looked like it might help me control the amount
However when I shook it three times the third time a huge amount came out 



Texture is liquid, a little transparent liquid
Like I said earlier it has no small lump that can irritate your skin
I know there was a little version of this 80ml 
I've used that before I believe this product has less alcohol feeling
This is good for people who has dry skin it won't steal skin moist

I advice you use it with a cotton cloth
You can try just applying it on your skin but I feel it clean off less
However when you use cotton cloth there will be bit of wet cloth rub off 
Just remember to clean off the liquid and cotton afterwards



See how red my skin is these days? :(
Anyways I rubbed the cotton cloth
Well,,,,,,I'm sorry that the picture is bit dirty but not all the white stuff is my dead skin cells
some...are the cotton stuff... XD

I'm not that dirty

After wash the skin felt soft
Makeup worked perfectly the next day
I suggest use this twice a week?
I think that would be enough

This product is overall good to use lightly constantly
But don't expect big results

[Korean Cosmetic Makeup Blogger] Mamonde Pure White 2X Effector Whitening Product! With Large Amount of Moisture!


Original Price / Amount : 28,000 / 50ml
If you want me to get it for you just ask XD
email : myteacupstory@gmail.com

This product is Whitening Moisturizer Product
Mamonde Pure White 2X Effector came out this year spring
and have been love for healing dried out skin.
It is always important to have some kind of moisturizer product
this is one of my favorite!
Because it also makes your skin WHITE!


I love how it is made as pumping type
Although when I first bought this I had to pump 3~5 times before something came out
I like the lid is elevated making it easier to use
Very detailed packaging XD Thanx Mamonde!


One of the thing that was cool is the twist inside
This is clear glass and you can see the stuff inside and look how pretty it looks
I really wonder how they make the cream twist inside XD


The first few days the cream comes out like the BIG picture
This is why this product is called Twisted cream
You can see all the twisted white cream!

After a while it turns white like the LITTLE picture
XD Both works on your skin same so don't be surprised when the cream changes

As you can see in the BIG picture
The transparent cream is the essence you use normally everyday
The white cream is the cream that whitens your skin

Essence is made out of extraction from bamboo tree
Bamboo tree keeps your skin healthy with nutrition and moist
Flowers use in this cream will help your skin turn white 
and give a natural beautiful light reflex
Berries inside helps your skin look clean and transparent!


I thought since all the moist it will be liquid-like-texture
But as you can see in the pic it has some cream texture
It feels like skin with a lot of nutrition

It wasn't sticky 
and has very very little oil

Cream on the oil paper for more than 40 minutes and this is all the oil it had

The cream absorbency is so FAST!
you can already see the whitening effect the moment you apply!
When you apply you feel very cool
Not So cool like those cooling products 
but cooler than other whitening or essence cream
When I spread this is feels like some sort of cool water have been splashed on my skin!
LOVE IT!


Testing on the hand skin

You can see the big change on your skin
Rough skin turns smooth and soft baby skin XD

After good cleaning and drying
Next pic I tried it on the face
The effect is always bit difference on the face

After skin I applied Mamonde Pure White 2X Effector


You can see overall the skin looks healthy and transparent
Whiter and the rough parts have been become smoother
If you skin looks bit damp and maybe dry
This product really change the look
and the way the makeup will look!

I love how this product not only just moisturize your skin
But also whitens and gives light into your skin ;)

[Korean Cosmetic Makeup Blogger] Summer Cool Moisturizer Original Raw Ice Blue Water Block Cream


Price / Amount :  48,000/ 50ml
If you want me to get it for you just ask XD
email : myteacupstory@gmail.com

In the summer it is important to clean off all the oil on your skin
and moisturize it well.
In hot summer it is easy to get oily and we all hate making our skin sticky and hot with moisturizing cream. So it is not easy to keep a habit of applying moisturizing cream.

In the summer (it's like a Trend in Korea right now) Cool moisturizing cream is popular
and I think I found one of the BEST Cooling moisturizing cream.

I love how this product keeps moist for a long time.
If you are looking something with various effect (like whitening and nutritious) this is not your item.
Original Raw Ice Blue Water Block Cream is great if you are looking something that moisturize your skin.


I love the cover XD something about the color and design makes it look cool


It's a jelly type of cream


I love this color! 
All of my moisturizing cream is overall weak and creamy
But Ice Blue Water Block Cream is closer to soft-soild


Once you apply the cream you can see the some masses
When you rub this on your skin it pops and pour out a lot a lot of moist!
The moment I apply I could feel the coolness
I decided to put this in the fridge maybe it will get even more cooler!
I love how easy it is to spread this around your skin

Moist and cooling~
Perfect Moisturizer for the SUMMER!

[Korean Cosmetic Makeup Blogger]Haute Skin's White Clay Pore Purifying Masque, For all your Pore Troubles in the Summer be gone!


Today's product is 
Haute Skin's White Clay Pore Purifying Masque
Price / Amount : 40,000 with shipping with TRACKING NUMBER / 110g 
If you want me to get it for you just ask XD
email : myteacupstory@gmail.com

In the summer it is easier to get pore problems
Summer = Red heads, Black heads, White head
AHH!

This product is famous for being used by many of the Korean Celebrities
I like how much cream is contained!
I think I will be using this for a long time! 


There is a slim plastic that could cover the lid keeping it CLEAN
It's important to keep all your cream product clean as possible
you don't want dust on your skin
Those are one of the reason why you are getting pore problems!

I really love the fact that the cream is 98% NATURAL INGREDIENT!!!
We all love something natural and safe for your skin
Haute Skin's White Clay Pore Purifying Masque is more of a cure for your skin
than just pore scrubbing, irritating chemical product

If you have sensitive skin this product can help your skin sensitivity
If use regularly some may find their skin less sensitive than before.
I felt my skin can bare more makeup after using this cream
But I'm not sure if every single one of you will find that effect


When using this pact you can find these effect :
-Whitening
-Pore size reduced
-Cooling

After you apply the soft cream
you wait for 10 minutes and wash it off

You can see the picture on my hand
where I applied and where I didn't!
See the difference in the color? XD
It cleans out oil so oily skin should use this to control their oil


Remember to apply it thick enough around your skin
I can feel my face is cooling when I applied this cream
Perfect for skin that has been heated up from the hot summer sun!


See the BIG difference in the Before/After Picture?
Whitening, of course
but you can see how clean it looks?
Pores all squeezed into smaller holes
and that Special Natural Sparkling on the skin!


REMEMBER : Clean off the white stuff real well.
if you leave off some cream it will make your skin worse!
Don't worry no matter how much you wash your face the Whitening effect remains
That's what I really love about this product!

I can really see how well my pores been taken care of
Whitening effect was GREAT!
It lasted long enough for the next day makeup!
and I also feel my skin elastic has strength for the time being
Not as long as the whitening effect
But I feel if has do it twice a week the effect will lengthen!
and maybe be permanent!

When I used this I was real tired
I had blood shot around my eyes
After use I feel a lot of my tiredness gone
some of the blood shots around the eyes reduced or lessen in color!
This is a MUST HAVE ITEM for this SUMMER!!!

[Korean Cosmetic Makeup Blogger] Seatree Marronnier Poaless Ice Toner,

You may have notice I upload new post every day or every other day
I have a lot of post ready to launch
But I wanna let you guys savor my post 
:P

So come back as often as you can
There is much to lose!

Anyways, One of my beloved followers reminded me
it is about time for summer-use skin toner

I went "Huh...I'm sure I wrote that somewhere...Opps...it wasn't published XD"

In the summer I like to find something
LIGHT and COOL
I know some of you are looking some of that too!
Than I found the just the right product to introduce!

Seatree Marronnier Poaless Ice Toner


They say it will squeeze all your pores
Whitens your skin
and make your skin moist and cool!

Well... let's find out if that's true

This was made in Korea but the makeup recipe is from FRANCE!
Oh and it's flammable keep those fire away from this product


It's a pumping type with bit of bumpy stuff
So your fingers won't slip and fall XD


I find the texture very CREAMY~
and you need to keep this in the fridge
or it will melt and become useless
Once you spray it on it melts into your skin...
It REALLY melts!
As watery melting stuff soaks into your skin
you are left with moist and shinny skin

See the Before and After difference?
It doesn't squiz ALL your pores but it does feel tightened

Because of the cool temperature
it is wise to spray it on a cotton and not directly on your face

[Korean Cosmetic Makeup Blog] Innisfree Green Persimmon Pore Pad

Pores... my mortal enemy!
As long as they exist my battle with those REDS and BLACK will never end!

One of my revenge Item is today's main character :

Innisfree Green Persimmon Pore Pad



Name : 
Price / Amount : 15,000 / 40 pad
If you want me to get it for you just ask XD
email : myteacupstory@gmail.com


I suggest this product after cleaning your skin
Or use another pack with pore cleansing
This is for tightening your pores
so those REDS and BLACK will not appear so easily


SEE! It even has a sign XD

Using Natural Ingredience from Jeiju Island
(such as Green Tea, Green Persimmon, Green complex etc.)

It's said in the back
Use it after you put it in the fridge
Put it on your skin for just 10 sec

After 10sec you just need a toner to clean off the leftovers

There is a "Special Way" to check if the product is ready for use


After you put it in the fridge the snowflack will appear and you are ready to use this!
XD


When you open the lid
You see a clip to pull out pads


These are for the pads ONLY!
Don't pluck out your eyebrows with this I've tried....
It just hurts and my hair did pull out
...LOL...

There's like 40 of those
If you use 2 a day you get almost a month of use

I love how cool it feels on your skin
and how well it clings to your skin!


Let's see it on your face skin!


SEE THE BEFORE AND AFTERS


Okay so no whitening effect
Only Pore Tightening
It's okay~ I guess.... I think I got too used to multi-effects

It doesn't tighten your pore 100% on the first try
I guess no product actually can do that
But when you have a oily skin and it's summer
your pore go large and deep
That really brings tears and this really helps!
(my nose oil can get around my dry cheeks ARG)
I does tightens your pore enough to give a change on your daily makeup

You can also use it on your nose
after good cleaning of those oil and stuff in your pores XD
