Welcome to April's makeup mess! These are products that I've been using for the whole month. I swear the products started off much cleaner, until I hit pan for the Artclass by Rodin contour palette and the powders crumbled over the rest of the products. Still, the feeling of finishing a product is so satisfying <3  Face Bases Teint Infusion Foundation - 26 Peach Sephora Collection & BCDation BB Serum - 03 Warm Beige Tonymoly April was the month where I gave up on trying to foundation match my (much lighter) face to my neck, and did it the other way around instead. I went to Sephora to be colour matched and wore the foundation for the rest of the night (~6 hours). By itself, it was feather light, adhered to the skin well and set quickly. Despite its hydrating claim, it emphasised my smiles lines within the hour, and the edges of my face seemed too orange. The BCDation BB serum stopped the Sephora foundation from immediate oxidisation, an...

Now that it's mid-trimester break I can spend more time taking photos that I'm satisfied with. It just sucks that the break has coincided with a time where I'm becoming increasingly lazy with my routine - once I even left the house with no sunscreen on le gasp and either my neck was burned or it was patchy from having a persistent cat walk over my face when I was sleeping idk. To make sure my skin doesn't shrivel up into a walnut shell I settle for short, concentrated dosages in the form of multi-step masks. I had an average experience with my first ever multi-step from SNP so the benchmark wasn't high when I tried these masks out. JayJun Baby Pure Shining Mask Step 1. Blooming Essence (1.5 mL) Step 2.

Moonshot used to have an extensive skincare line but most of it has since been pulled from their website. Of what’s available, most are cleansing products and masks . I tried their Daily Pure Relax mask, but of course I lost the full review on it and I can't remember much other than it was overpriced for its results and had a large fit. At least the GD Fantastic Shining Mask was less of a letdown.   GD Fantastic Shining Mask Oh yas it comes with a photocard. I believe there's 2 designs and despite buying 3 packs of these, I've received the same photocard in each pack T_T Each box comes with 5 separate masks and has a unique QR code for verification purposes. The mask has 3 steps to it: a cleanser, mask and eye cream.

Everytime I think about Moonshot's men's line I become slightly bitter. When I was at the Bigbang A-Z Exhibition they had a Moonshot popup store and there was a good deal for the MFM line, but they only did tax refunds at the Myeongdong store. The sales assistant assured me they would have the same discount pack at their main store but they liiiiied and now here I am, having ordered them full price from their online store and paying for shipping  *shakes fist towards my far point* Let's start with the BB cream cause that's the way the photos uploaded. Moonshot is very consistent with their packaging, it's always sleek, minimal, and they really like glossy black caps. Claims "No sticky and oil! BB cream that offers SPF30, PA+++ sun protection while concealing imperfections and dullness naturally, Grooming BB cream for fantastic first experience" The English isn't great but good on you guys for translating the ingredients <3 ...

Welcome to the first post of (mostly) Moonshot March! This whole month I'm testing only Moonshot products, with the exception of other brands to cover the categories I don't own a Moonshot product for. If you haven't heard of Moonshot, they're a Korean company that was started by YG Entertainment in 2014. GD & Dara were their first celebrity endorsers and each of them had a cushion named after them - the GD Microfit Cushion and Dara Moonflash Cushion, Over the last week I've been exclusively using this cushion duo for my daily makeup. The Microfit Cushion comes in a cool holograhic box. The cushion case has a reflective coating on the topside that is easily stained by fingerprints, while the back is matte. It's your standard cushion which uses a puff to stamp the product onto your face. Each pack contains 12g of product, however some websites do offer a special edition pack that comes with an extra refill. Moonshot cushion puff...

@Skinsitivity  does makeup capsule collections and as soon as the IG algorithm decided to let me know about this awesome idea I jumped on board. Her idea was to restrict herself to select products each fortnight which has a lot of benefits that I'm digging. Not having to ooh and ah over the different combinations every morning was definitely a key reason why I was so keen, that and making sure I was using up older products. The lineup definitely changed over the fortnight, as I learnt new things about some older products. Base  - Nature Republic Pure Waterful Base (unpictured) Foundation  - Guerlain Parure Gold Radiance Foundation SPF 30 PA+++ (02 Beige Clair) Concealer  - Estee Lauder Double Wear Concealer (02 Light Medium) Corrector  - NYX Dark Circle Corrector (Light/Pale) Apologies that the NR base isn't included here, I threw it out and a day later decided I should blog about this -.- Two weeks spent with it convinced me that it was a ...
