Hi girlie girls, meet my new favorite BB Cream! Hehehe It is skin 79 super BB cream VIP Gold Collection. I have both pink and gold range of Super plus BB cream, so far i am loving them! The pink review would come up soon, so stay tune!
Key Features:
- Whitening and wrinkle improvement
- Ultraviolet Rays interception SPF 25 pa ++
- Contains Adenosine, arbutin, GOLD, and Caviar extract
Packaging
I love the packaging,just simply elegant! And moreover it comes with a pump. Very hygienic. But with this kind of packaging, i really have no idea how much product left inside the bottle.
The texture is creamy and a little bit thick, easy to blend tho. I ussually blend this with my fingers or even with stippling brush. I would say coverage is medium and gives out a dewy - glowy look. Cute cute cute! Since this is made for people with dry skin, of course the oil control is very low. Two hours and then i need to blot. To trick this, i use Marcks powder to top it of. Tho oily easily, my face still look fresh for five or six hours. Not bad lha. For everyday use, i change between pink and gold. Pink for hot days and gold is for night use, or when my face turns out dry. It is really able to moisturize the face.

Hola, chicas :)! How are you today? Aaa, before we know it, it is Saturday already. Today i come up with my "lost but recently found" covergirl eye enhancers 4 kit shadows. This eyeshadows were my favorite last year, but because many rivals are coming in my beauty stash, this kit has forgotten.
I found this in a poor condition, applicator gone, and one of the shadow has break into pieces. So sorry >.< dear shadows..
About covergirl eye enhancers
It is a kit contains matte, sparkle and shimmery shadows. That has been designed for a kit "to go" from day to night look.
Packaging and Texture
Eventhough it is packaged in plastic container, i find the container is pretty sturdy. I don`t know how many time i have drop this eyeshadow already, regarding how clumsy i am. But still the container is great, and still click and open well. Too bad that the packaging is not cute like Korean brands or colorful like Benefit. But, well, yeah, the container has served its function well and Covergirl always has this modern - minimalistic packaging concept. Hmm, talking about texture, it is a little bit powdery and chalky.
Longevity, Application, Pigmentation
It stays put around three hours without eye primers and longer if you put one. Application is easy because this eyeshadows is blendable. But, in terms of pigmentation. Blah! I have to swap many times in order to make the color shows. The colors are very sheer. Hmm, maybe it will be great for school, where you can`t wear strong colors shadow.
Overall
+ Sturdy packaging
+ Blendable
- A little bit chalky and powdery
- Bad pigmentation
Rating 3/5
Repurchase? No
Hmm, before i end this blog post, i just want to invite you to join my mini giveaway. Hopefully you like it and good luck. Have a blast!

Last April, my friend Putri went to South Korea for a seminar purposes. She kindly brought back for me some make up and skincare, and this was one of `em. Nature Republic is a Korean make up brand that emphasize on natural ingredients. Not just a mouthful, this foundation really does contain polynesia lagoon water and SPF 25 PA++. Hmm, sounds good to me ^.^
Okay, let`s get down to the product review, shall we?
Packaging
Comes in a blue plastic tube with flower print, this foundation looks a little bit "standard". Not really cute, but not bad either. I really like the idea using plastic, because it will be travel friendly. Tube packaging is also hygienic.
Swatch, Texture and Smell
It has creamy texture, a little bit thick so it is hard to blend. For me, i find it better to use make up sponge rather than paddle-like foundation brush. The brush only resulting in streaky finish. It has such a strong vanilla smell that wont go away for 15 minutes. The smell is fine for me, because my skin is not sensitive towards fragrance.

| Spread - spread-.. Looks really white, isn't it? |

| Blend more with my fingers |
Coverage, Oil control, Pigmentation and Longevity
Semi matte finish and the coverage is sheer to medium. For a really bad acne scar, concealer is a must. At first, the foundation didn`t blend well and causing a white cast, but after a while it settled well. On me, this foundie doesn`t oxidise, stay bright till i remove it. Pigmentation is good, a little goes along the way and brightens up the entire face. It stays put for 5 - 6 hours, and i do need to blot sometimes. So, i would say that the oil control is so - so.
FOTD
The best part about my job, is that i get to travel to a lot of mall for many reasons. Market research, location finding, or even checking the SOYA stores. Hehehehe so i can go sightseeing while working.
This time i went to Supermall PTC Surabaya. I was in hurry making this FOTD, i didn`t even have time to apply the eyeliner and as you can see, the eyelash glue were very apparent and flaking >.<
Gah! Thank goodness the eyelashes didn`t fall off until the end of the day. I just use copper and brown eyeshadow all over my lids and apply falsies. That was it.
And for the face, i was using Nature republic vanilla sky foundation. I like the finishing look of this foundie. My skin looks brighter, smoother, but not heavy :)
Rating: 4/5
Repurchase? YES

Glowing complexion and perfect contouring are two korean make up highlights. But little i know that this kind of look can be achieved through a local brand too. I used to think that local brand means "heavy" make up and colorful eyeshadows, whereas korean brand offers subtler color and natural make up.
This shimmering powder that i am going to review today is a great product from Sariayu. I mainly love this because it is an ALL KILL product. It contains four colors that can be used separately.
WHITE : Sparkly and glittery color. I use this for the tear duct, cupid bow, and sometimes i use this on top of a lipstick so it looks very shimmery
BROWN: Many people use this as bronzing color, but personally i think that it is hard to pick with bronzing brush. Instead i use this for eyeshadows. Perfect for everyday.
PINK: Beautiful subtle pink that is great for blush on.
Creme: This is the greatest part, i use this mainly to highlight my nose bridge, and if i blend this color with the others, i can use it as a highlight for my cheek bones.
The packaging is sleek and and flower pattern just make it perfect. It also comes with brush and plastic pouch. But i lost them somewhere in my room :(. The brush was soft though. Very nice.
The texture can be a little bit powdery when i use it too much. But as long as i use it sparingly. It really flatters my face. The shimmer is also subtle, it accentuates my face with healthy glow without making it like a disco ball. I also have a similar product name PAC Shimmering powder, compares to that, this product provides more down to earth glow. PAC Shimmering powder is perfect for party look, whereas Sariayu shimmering powder is more into everyday look.
The glow last all day. I ussually apply this for my school make up and my face still glowy after 4 -5 hours. For me, i think it is a worthy products to buy. I would recommend this for:
1. Korean make up lover
2. Someone who loves to have dewy - glowy look
3. Someone who is looking for affordable but good shimmering powder
