Shade #21 – Light Beige
I originally bought this BB cream for my mum, who was looking for some light coverage with a high SPF, but I’ve started ‘borrowing’ it more and more as I’ve realised how good it actually is. It comes in 3 shades and this is the one in the middle, although it is still is a pretty fair shade even for someone like me who is pale. This is common with many Korean BB creams which Continue reading
This lip stain from Tony Moly comes in 3 different shades, the other 2 being a bright red and an orange colour. I chose the pink shade thinking it might be the most natural-looking! The product is labelled as a ‘tint’, however it really is more of a stain as once you have this product on, it is difficult to take off as it really does stain the skin.To apply, you should first exfoliate and apply lip Continue reading
Another product with adorable packaging from Tony Moly, this face powder comes in a compact in the shape of a cat’s face and is a must-have for any feline-lover. However, it isn’t just a gimmick, as this is actually a very good product. The compact comes with a make-up sponge and a pretty generously-sized mirror, which is ideal for application on the go.

As this has been my first post in a while (thanks, finals!) I thought I’d talk about one of my favourite new products from Korea. The Aqua Petit Jelly BB cream is a cult favourite, so I was curious to see if the blush would be as good. This is available in 5 different shades, and I chose a kind of coral-pink colour. It turns out it’s one of the prettiest and most natural-looking blushes Continue reading
Ok, let’s just start by acknowledging that this is the most adorable little fruit in the world. This tiny peach is one of three fruit-shaped lip balms from Tony Moly, the others being a cherry and a blueberry, and if the peach one is anything to go by then each will have a definite scent of the fruit it represents. It smells lovely, just like peach flavour sweets, and is a sheer Continue reading
Yet another product I have picked up lately in anticipation of summer! This baked highlighting powder from Étude House is available in two different versions, one which is more cool-toned and the other warm. In the pan this mix of gold, peach and white tones really does look beautiful, and they blend together to give a shimmery, warm finish without looking like you have Continue reading
I had heard a lot of good things about this tinted lip gloss from Missha and I’m pretty impressed. It is available in 5 different shades ranging from baby pink to deep red, but I felt like the coral shade would be the best for summer. It claims to be a lip gloss that also leaves a stain on your lips, so it supposedly deepens as you leave it on. I’m not sure about this claim actually, for whilst it Continue reading
I am always looking for new nail polishes, so I had to try out this one from Tony Moly as it was an absolute bargain at less than £3. They have a pretty good selection of options for each colour family, and this looked a bit different to any other turquoise-green colours I have so I thought I’d give it a go. It looks a bit brighter even than the pictures below show, and it’s a perfect, Continue reading
