August 2013 Empties/Throwaways

 
 
Banila co. deep the eyes eyeliner pencil in Sparkling Purple
A Project Pan item. Since the eyeliner fell out of the pencil, I moved it into a jar and trying to use up. It is one of those 'goes-on-very-creamy-but-doesn't-budge-once-it-sets' pencils. Purple with some pink sparkles which doesn't show up very much unless you build up the color. Color pigmentation is okay, but not the best. I wouldn't re-purchase this because I found some other eyeliners that are less expensive and perform better than this one.

YET Mascarala in purple velvet
Didn't like this. Rather than making my eyelashes appear purple-tinged, it gives my eyelashes some ashyness as though I accidentally put some face powder on my eyelashes. the formula is pretty dry which I like, but it dried up on me very quickly. It held the curl pretty well and didn't cause the lashes to clump up, but I just couldn't get over the color. Not going to re-purchase it.

Tony Moly Maxi Volume Force Mascara
It was just okay. It took me a while to get used to the huge wand, and the formula was a little too wet for my liking when I first opened it. But other than that it was okay. Had it not been discontinued, I might have picked it up when it was on discount.

Etude House Miss Tangerine Cream Choux Blusher no.1 Miss Tangeringe
This is very fun crazy yellow orange color to which was immediately drawn. But when I wore it out, people told me that I looked unwell. I tried using it on my lips, mixing it into my under eye concealer, etc. and held onto it for a while but.. there's no point in keeping a blush that makes me under the weather.

Nivea Lovely Lips in Natural Pink
sheer natural pink shade with barely noticeable shimmer. It was just okay.

Cellio lipstick in Sun Glossy Orange
I love the color and it is quite long-lasting without being too dry. but the taste and smell is so awful that I just don't reach for it.

Aritaum Gel eyeliner brush  
It became a little too scratchy.



 
Espoir Dewy Face Glow
It is a subtle liquid illuminator with pink shimmer. I mixed it with moisturizer, foundation, etc., and used it as highlighter. The consistency is very thin and runny, and it feels almost moisturizing on the skin. I wouldn't purchase the full sized version because I don't like pink highlighters very much. but I enjoyed using this deluxe sample because it was easy to carry around in the purse and use whenever my face looks a bit dull.

Etude House Gel Tint Blusher in Red Orange
Very sheer red orange stain for cheeks. I didn't like it a lot because I found it difficult to blend in seamlessly. It tends to ruin the foundation underneath, and when worn underneath foundation it doesn't show up at all. I'm not sure whether it's limited edition, but it got phased out pretty quickly and I can see why. It smells rancid now so I am throwing it away.

Innisfree lipstain in touch-me-not
It goes on peachy initially, but turns an unflattering shade of orange a while after I put it on.

Nature Republic Botanical Shine Tint in Shine Peach
The same goes for this product. It is a peachy orangey shade with gold shimmer and looks pretty right after I put it on, but turns into a weird orange color.

Etude House Eyebrow gel
It is inexpensive and does the job of coloring my eyebrows so they match my hair color better, and keeping my eyebrow hair in place. I wasn't keen on the applicator, so I probably wouldn't repurchase it.

Estee Lauder Perfecting Illuminating Primer
Another Project Pan item. It is soft silicon based primer with gold shimmer. It does help the foundation to glide on easily, and the shimmer is subtle and pretty. It works both as foundation primer and also as a highlighter. I quite liked it but probably won't purchase full sized product because I have many highlighters and I prefer my primer to be without shimmer.
 
Skinfood cream eyeliner that came in a kit
It just doesn't stay put. I tried every tricks I know to make it last, but it just doesn't work.

Etude Jewelade nail polish in black
It's not Etude House, it's Etude. It used to be sold in drugstores before Etude House launched. Anyways, it was a good black nailpolish, but now it is a little too old and goopy to use.
 
Missha nail polish 손톱빛 화이트
Throwing it away because the consistency has changed. It is a sheer off white color that gives yout nails brightened and clean look. You can also use it to create an gradiant effect which is very pretty.

 
 
 
 IOPE Moisture Intense Softener/Emulsion
Quite liked these. very moisturing without being overly greasy.
 
The Face Shop Jewel Therapy Dual Care Ampoule
I don't notice any difference in my hair after using this product. I still hace another one left in my stash so I will use that up but not going to repurchase. The packaging is pretty nice for decanting liquid products, so I washed the container so I can use it when traveling.
 
Clarins Sunscreen Sample
I didn't like this at all. It has very strong white-ish peachy pink tint to it, which works downright against my skin tone. And it also caused me breakouts. I used it on my feet when I wore flipflops.
 
A'pieu Pure Block Natural Sun Cream SPF 45 PA+++
I am quite impressed with this. I used the entire sache on my face, but it didn't make my skin overly greasy nor did it interfere with my makeup. I might consider purchasing full sized tube when I am done with the sunscreen I am currently using.
 
 
IOPE Moisture Intense Cream
It was nice thick cream and I enjoyed using it at night.
 
A'pieu Dewdrop boost skin/lotion
These are okay.
 
Nature Republic The first fermented bubble cleanser
You are supposed to put this your dry skin, wait a little while until it bubbles up, massage gently and rinse with lukewatm water. It was a little fun watching it bubbling up on its own but that's it. It's just a cleanser.
 
Skinfood Avocado eye balm
It is very thick cream that provides a intense hydration. I probably wouldn't repurchase this because it stung my eyes a little bit. I accidentally dropped it and the package shattered on a side, so I ended up using it on my body instead of my under eye area where it is very sensitive.
 
3w clinic Multi Sunblock SPF40 PA++
My favorite sunscreen so far. But I can't find it anywhere..
 
 
 
some bath salt(unknown brand)
I enjoyed using it. Putting it in the bath, using it to exfoliate, etc.  
 
DIY body scrub(in the empty container of A'pieu peeling pad)
Ground coffee and olive oil. It worked great and cost me very little. I probable will make more of these in the future 
 
Organic Farm Vitamin E Soothing gel
Used it as a very light body moisturizer and it was great for summer. 
 
Dove Nourushing Oil Care Dual Treatment with weightless nutri-oils
 It was decent hair mask but nothing special about it.
 
 
 
Innisfree Jeju volcanic pore clay mask
 
My friend gave me these but had to throw away because they have all dried up for some reason. I have used sample packets of these before and I really liked them, so I am a bit sorry I couldn't use them.
 
 
Missha Time Revolution Aqua Youth Cream, A'pieu Eco Fresh Original Balhyo Badapodo Cream, The Face Shop Chia Seed Cream
 
All of these were pretty light-weight and a little bit slippy. They were just okay. Not bad but nothing spectacular.
 
 
 
Ethanol for Disinfection
I go through these a lot. I use it on my beauty tools, wipe down countertop with this, etc.
 
 
Nivea Extra White Deodrant Spray
Easy to use, inexpensive. It has powder scent which is not my favorite, but didn't gave me headache like some other heavily scented deodrants can.
 
 
I've been mixing so many different nail polish removers into this container that I forgot what I had in this pumping bottle. I finally used up what was in it.
 
 
 
꽃을든남자 Style Fix Hair Wax no.2 Airy Wave (30ml)
I am on project pan for hair products as well, and this is the first product to go. It is a hair wax that gives soft hold. I used it when I wanted natural look. it smells nice.
