[Korean Cosmetic Makeup Blogger] Orignial Raw 10 Cushion Foundation


Price / Amount : 38,000 / 13g
If you want me to get it for you just ask XD
email : myteacupstory@gmail.com


My Model Dog Ace has beautifully express the product I am going to introduce
Orignial Raw 10 Cushion Foundation

It has all the softness of a feather
Great for Natural Beauty!


In the summer I really get lazy,
Since I have very sensitive skin
If I do thick makeup it means that much cure and care is needed
I'm sweating and I don't want to do labor XD

In the hot summer I try to do makeup simple as possible
One of the ways to do it is by skipping all those bb cream 
and just use this cushion foundation as a base
I don't even need sunscreen because this one has SPA 50 / PA +++
This product is perfect if you fix your makeup often
This foundation blends in well

There are two color #21 and #23
If you consider yourself bit darker skin get #23
Normal and White skin get #21



Cap type button one push and it opens
Remember it's a cushion foundation
You mush remember to close it tight or it'll dry out
Listen for the click when you close it


I... personally don't like this pump
I have very sensitive skin and with this HARD and ROUGH pump
I might irritate my skin bloody red
Plus see those holes? 
It even eats some foundation on it's own
What a waste...


When I buy Pumping type foundation
I always didn't really like how the center is all moist and foundation already on the surface
All that moist is not so good for hygienic reasons
But Original Raw 10 Cushion Foundation is DRY!
Mold won't be growing in THIS foudnation
I really like that about this foundation
If you want foundation all you need is slight pressure


Foundation are usually dry but in this pic you can see the water and moist!
It does feel the water particles are not small enough for fast absorbent and detailed spreading.
So you might have to tap it on a little longer or you might get some
sponge mark

I'm not sure you can see the difference
See around the nose where there is shadow
I love the fact that it is light 
Just like the fact it is hard to tell the difference 
It is SOOO light that it feels like you didn't apply anything

This foundation is for people who like to do light makeup
and something Very Natural

It didn't have the whitening effect so to those who like to heighten your skin tone
This is not for you

Or you can use this foundation in the afternoon when your makeup go dry
This foundation is perfect to fix your makeup

[Korean Cosmetic Blogger / Lady Fox] Natural Republic Provence Melting Foundation

[Korean Cosmetic Blogger / Lady Fox] Natural Republic Provence Melting Foundation 

Foundation, it seems Koreans got bored of powder type foundation, most of them started introducing liquid type. But on windy days both types is not 'enough'. Especially the Earth decided to go crazy and it should be spring here in Korea instead it hailed yesterday :/. Wind is still cold and dry and it is ripping my sensitive skin.

But walking around without makeup feels like walking around naked. So foundation is a 'MUST'. The best foundation for these types of weathers are the mixture of both dry type and the liquid type. Dense moist with smallest powder is needed.

Natural Republic Provence Melting Foundation is made of 12 natural ingredient; Sage, Time, Peppermint, Rosemary, Lavender, Lemon Balm, Lemon Verbena, Lemongrass, Lin deonkkot, Damask roses, Hibiscus, Rosehip


Price / Amount : 17,900 / 14g
If you want me to get it for you just ask XD

One of the reason I love Korean Cosmetic is their love for natural ingredients. It not only makes it less stress for your skin but also it like when ever you put on makeup you're giving your skin a massage. I love how it can do muti-task (Something I'm not gifted XD)


One button click is all you need to open it.
Mirrors!
The pump is the soft sponge pump, I didn't really liked it because the sponge drank up all the moist in the foundation that was suppose to go on my skin. But since it is a sponge it applies evenly and makes your skin look soft, so in the afternoon it helps you control your skin when it turns damp and dry.

Roughly Translate : To keep all the moist inside please close the cover after use
Very important warning here, without the moist the foundation lose all the reason for use.

Once the foundation touches the skin it kinda melts as you touch it, I think it melts because of my skin temperature but I love it!
Like all liquid type foundation careful not to push hard, just gentle touch the surface. 
Oh and keep it in a cool place any place warm the foundation will melt (Yiks!)

Very natural color and bright

Applied / Not Applied

See how bright and sparkle your skin will look?

Under the eyes
Before / After

I loved how bright that shadowy place looks.
I like light makeup but this foundation clings to your skin strongly. 
To those who do only light makeup may feel bit stuffy.

I advice not to smear it on but tap it on.
It doesn't smear on well, it's kind of stiff to spread it on your skin and also because you use a sponge pump most of your moist is still inside your sponge, in order to draw out the moist tap tap tap on your skin

I think it has the most moist than other foundation, even better than the liquid type.
I love how it looks moist and sparkle clean your skin looks.
(But remember it is a foundation, it does tag on your skin a bit)

The one thing I wasn't happy is how damp your skin becomes on the afternoon
So you have to do bit of fixing every once in a while.

But I still love how moist and sparkle it looks, even if it is just for a few hours. SD

[Korean Cosmetic Blogger / Lady Fox] Tony Moly Delight Melting Foundation, Delight Foundation, Delight Eye shadow, Delight Make up Box

I'll introduce you to  ALL NEW Tony Moly Delight Package!
Melting Foundation, Brusher, Eyeshadow
and a DIY makeup box to put your own colors inside and take it anywhere you go!

So many colors! Ready to explore them? LOL

I'll start with the Melting Foundation, I thought there will be a refill (because of that fat look it got when it came) Too bad, no free refill. 


You'll be surprised that the foundation is out side of this case so you gotta just slightly fit it inside the mirror case, you'll know what I'm saying when you open the package :/

No problem, It is no rocket science! 
(I just don't get why don't they just kindly put it inside for us)


Very moist? Nope, bit sticky maybe good for long use.
These days all foundation comes with air pump, so if you push bit too much
You'll come with too much foundation on your sponge!
So do a ever so slight push and very slightly cover your skin.
Because this foundation has very strong pigment (Cover's red acne well)
Left : No Applied / Right : Applied
See how well it covers? and heighten your skin tone

Time for those Brush and Eye shadow (So excited)


Melting Brusher two colros
Very natural color theme, because it is mostly for yellow skin and white skin
Some of you might find the pigment bit light, There are other 4 colors than this,
Visit the store and see all the colors on your skin.
I like the natural sparkle it has

Top : Highlighter /  Bottom : Color

Left : Color / Right : Highlighter

How to put it on
I got this from Tony Moly Homepage
You can see there are many ways to apply this and it all has different style and feel to it.
Natural Brusher (do the big circle thing around your cheek, apply very light)
Lovely Cute Brusher (Smile when you apply this, when smiling you see your cheeks that shaped round, apply on that part)
Sharp Brusher (From your cheek bone go up to the end of your eyes)
Try them all! Tell me which is your favorite!

Han Kyung Hee vibration Foundation

I found a interesting product today.

Price / Amount : 89,000won / 
If you want me to get it for you just ask XD
email : myteacupstory@gmail.com

Currently it's a 'HOT ISSUE' in Korean Homeshopping.
This vibration goes 5000vibration/min so that the foundation will steep into all your moles and cracked skin.

The size is kinda big so it could be bit big for small hands to grip.

It's not very hard to use. All you need is a battery and a foundation. All you need is to put these two into the vibration machine. Or you could just put the foundation on yourself and spread it with using this vibration machine.

There was alot expection about this foundation, however I feel there is bit of sound when vibrating and has big vibration motion.

The best thing about this foundation is that when applied with it the foundation is steep into the skin so it doe not wash out the tissue.
Apart from the vibration and the sound I feel this is the best product for applying foundation!

Etude House, Limp GuanChea(Brilliance) Volumer

Sparkling skin not only make your face look younger but it also make you skin look healthy. However using power type highlighter will make your skin look damp and make troubles around you moles.

A product that will make you young and healthy is the product  I'm going to introduce today.



Etude House, Limp GuanChea(Brilliance) Volumer

Price / Amount : 15,000won / 25g
If you want me to get it for you just ask XD
email : myteacupstory@gmail.com





It's a pink gel and has a rose-like scent but not quite sure. When applied it feels like you put on oil. Strangely even though it's oil it has the sticky feeling that stick to your skin tightly. 
If you have used such product you'll remember your oil sustance does not last long this product have fixed that.











When this product was out to open it was used as sub element of BB cream. So you mix it ratio of 3:1 of BB cream and Volumer.
Other product when mixed made the BB cream color weak so you had to apply additional foundation however this product delete the drawbacks.

Than apply it to your skin. You can use it like foundation if you want. Or like BB cream.

Like the TV star the skin looks bright and elegant.

My Top 5 Foundations

Ello lovelies!
Foundations are probably my most loved item of makeup, so much so that at last count i have over twenty bottles of the stuff. I am forever trying to achieve flawless skin so up until recently I've been on a quest to find my perfect foundation, along the way I've found some that i really love. Although it hasn't stopped me from lusting after a few new ones lately, but no, no new foundation until September, hmph.

Estee Lauder - Double Wear Foundation
If for some reason all of my makeup disappeared, this would be the first thing I'd run in to town to buy. This is my second bottle of Double Wear in the shade Shell, and considering how fickle i am with foundations, that really does say something. Its a medium to full coverage foundation that for me works wonderfully over the top of a silicone primer, or one with a little slip. I have quite dry skin but with gentle exfoliating and a good moisturiser I've had no problems with it clinging to dry areas. I wont go on a night out without it, its long wearing and can survive a hot day, club or even a bit of rain! I just love it!

Skin79 - Hot Pink BB Cream
I'm on my third bottle of this beauty! I actually need to purchase my fourth one of these as a back up. It photographed below weirdly darker than it actually wears, it applies with a slightly grey cast but quickly adapts to your skin tone. It does only come in one shade though so it wouldn't be suitable for medium to darker skin tones. But its perfect for fairer complexion beauties that don't need a lot of coverage! Just be careful where you buy them from as there are sadly a LOT of fakes available online. Waaay back i did a whole review on this, you can check that out here!
Laura Mercier - Tinted Moisturiser
I love everything about this tinted moisturiser, apart from the price. I really am dreading running out of this! Its a smidge darker than I'm used to for foundations, but as it is such a sheer formula it blends into the skin beautifully. Its lightweight, evens out my skin tone and has an spf 20 to fight against sun damage, making it absolutely perfect for summer. I'm trying my hardest to save enough to take on holiday with me. I did a Recent Rediscoveries post on this a little while ago, you can read that here.


Skinfood - Red Bean BB Cream

Now this one was a toss up between this and my Missha Perfect BB Cream. But in the end it came down to what I'd reached for the most! Again, it was another Recent Rediscovery post, as I've been trying to stop spending and use up a lot of my unloved products. I'm so glad i hooked this one out, it has more coverage than the Skin79 and has a lovely dewy finish. This will be the other holiday pick for me as it too has a decent SPF in. Check out the full review here! (Only one more old post plug, i promise!)


Nars - Sheer Glow Foundation

Now my skins soaked up a little sun my sheer glow has been getting a lot more love. Its coverage depends on application and could probably get near to full coverage out of it without being too cakey, although i feel the more you apply the less dewy the appearance. Again, (yawn) I've done a full review on it here, so i won't bang on as you've probably seen hundreds of sheer glow reviews! I just wish it came in a lighter shade, i wear shade Light 2 Mont Blanc as shade 1 was just too yellow for me. High end brands really should make more shades at both ends of the spectrum *shakes fist*.
So thats it! My Top 5 Foundations! And as far as no buys go, i think I've done REALLY well, no new foundation for quite a while now. Although i go to Florida in September, so I'm fully expecting to bring back a couple, or five. Oops!

What are your favourite foundations / bb creams?!
