YESSTYLE Haul! (January)
Hello, Lovely! 
6th Blog post, I'm so happy! Thank you again for all who have been supporting me in my past blog posts, questionnaires, polls and most recently quizzes. Which I hope that you all will try and make a quiz, I really want to try one but at the moment it seems that I'm the only one who's made one at the time (26/01/17). Again I appearance everyone who takes their time to read my blogs, I always get giggly when I get positive comments and like, so again Thank you x 🍑
Okay anyway going on with the post, I recently placed an order to YESSTYLE, as they were doing spend $50 (AUD) and receive free shipping which I couldn't pass that offer as I was looking for more pimple pads...which turned out the be much more in the end. 
DISCLAIMER all products I have brought by myself, having saved that money from my work I am in no ways bragging or such. (I didn't know if I had to put this in here but did just in case!) 
Anyway, the order was placed on the 24/01/17 and was dispatched on the same date. Which is super fast for me! I didn't have to pay the ridiculous shipping payments as (as mentioned) YESSTYLE had the offer.
Going on with what I brought, which was originally pimple pads, I tried searching for my usual ones by Nexcare but couldn't find them (not that I was overly worried about) so I decided to get the COSRX pimple pads as I've heard many good reviews about them.
Tumblr media
Product: COSRX Acne Pimple Master Patch X2
Prices: 
AUD: $6.90
USD:$5.21
KRW:₩6069.49
I'm super excited to try these, my first COSRX product wahoo!
In the end, I brought me than I originally planned...not mad about it. 
Tumblr media
Yay another COSRX product, super excited to try this! I've never tried an essence so I'm super excited to be introduced the new concept (for me at least). I have read tonnes of reviews on this product and I couldn't pass the offer, I feel like it will be one of those products that I'll love!
Product: COSRX Advance Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence
Price:
AUD: $26.90
USD:$20.42
KRW:₩23581.09
Tumblr media
Look what can I say about this concealer, I've had it before and I'm just finishing it up actually, that's why I thought I'd buy another one while I'm at it! Love, love love this concealer such high coverage and i mean the price is B E A U T I F U L!
I do have one complaint, that being it's a little too dark. I've picked the lightest colour (same as the one I've got now)  but it's still a little dark that's why I put it under my foundation, other than that there's nothing that a bad point (for me at least) 
Product: The SAEM Cover Perfection Liquid Concealer  
Price:
AUD: $9.41
USD:$7.14
KRW:₩8249.00
Tumblr media
Lastly, i decided to try these pore strips, I totally blame mama peach for this one, ahaha. We both watch the pore/blackhead remove and have been fascinated with trying these our selfs, which is why I brought these, I'm  super excited to have a girly night with mama peach and try these out! 
Product: TOSOWOONG Blackhead & Sebum Out Nose Pack 8pcs
Price:
AUD: $5.90
USD:$4.48
KRW:₩5171.31
So that's all I brought, which wasn't a lot in the end but super happy to receive these items. I had placed the order on the 25th or 26th of January and have received them today 2nd of February which took in total 7 to 8 days which is super quick as it comes from China.
I will be review all of these products after I've tried them out enough so please be on the lookout for that x

My Current Skincare Routine (012017)
Hello, Lovely!
5th blog post YAY! Again I would love to thank everyone who had liked my Innisfree no sebum mineral powder blog, 100 likes and counting. I'm so amazed at the amount of attention I've been getting I'm very grateful, I've had some lovely conversations with some friends here on Amino I'm just amazed at how lovely everyone's been so THANK YOU 🍑
I thought I should let my friends (all of you) know about my personal skin care routine! DISCLAIMER: I am by no means a skin care expert, I do whats been working for me, it may not work for you but it does work for me. At the moment I'm still testing things out, I mean I'm still using a westerner eye cream and I am in hope to find an amazing Korean one! So if you have any recommendations please let me know and they will go on my wishlist, Thank you in advance!
Okay, let's get started!
Background Info:
I do wear makeup nearly every day as I'm working or I'm at school. I love makeup and feel the need to do it every day (don't judge I do it for me, not for anyone else, I enjoy 'painting' my face). But I do have to say after a long day I'm hyped to take it all off, best feeling every.
Just info on my skin type too, I have an oily T-zone (nose, cheeks forehead and chin) cheeks and the surrounding of my face is dry too. I have past acne scarring, which has faded and not a big problem. I have small pore which I treat every week with a mask, I don't do any nose pore strips nor do I use that tool that brings the sebum out, I just leave it. I do suffer from acne ( I'm only 17, I'm a teen so I'm not threatened by pimples, I'm still young!) which I never pop my pimples, I leave them to do it thing and I have somewhat sensitive skin, like super sensitive to acidic masks (*caugh lemon).
Tumblr media
01.Beauty water
I first start off with a Beauty water, taking my eye makeup off first, ensuring everything off. I know this is a westerner brand, in all honesty, this was like my first 'skincare' product I ever got, I've been using it for the last 3 years! 
Tumblr media
Product: Simple Kind to skin micellar cleansing water.
How: I usually put some of the water on a cotton pad and softly wipe my eye makeup off, ensuring that everything is taken off before going on to the next step.
02.Oil Cleanser
Secondly, I use an oil cleanser, I always use a water-based cleanser around my eyes as oil cleaners seem to make my eyes foggy (?) and I hate that. Everyone knows this brand, I personally like it. The oil does get my foundation off my face while not being harsh which is a benefit!
Tumblr media
Product: Banila co. Clean is zero (original)
How: Using a spatula, I grab about a 10c coin amount and rub it into my face, I usually message it in bringing it down to my neck. I usually do this before I go into the shower so when I'm in I run warm water and wash the oil away, it turns almost milky.
03. Water Based Cleanser
The third step is cleansing all of the oils off, I usually use a foamed based cleanser which I know isn't the best to use as foam cleanser can spread germs, but like I mentioned before it works for me and I haven't practically broken out from using a foam. I usually wash my face with a foam cleanser in the shower which is easiest for me. 
Tumblr media
Product: Innisfree Green Tea Cleansing Foam
How: Squeeze as small amount of the product (10c coin size) onto wet hands and rub onto a wet face massaging it into the skin ensuring that all of the oils and makeup comes off, wash with warm water. 
Recommendations
Another great foam cleanser is the Innisfree Jeju Volcanic Pore Cleansing Foam!
Tumblr media
04. Exfoliation
I usually exfoliate about twice to three times a week. It really comes down to how I feel, if I've worn thick makeup that day or I feel the need to exfoliate, I never do this too hard just enough to ensure that I've softly scrubbed the dead skin away.
Tumblr media
Apologies for the dirty packaging its been in my shower, where I usually keep it as I do most of my cleansers!
Product: Skinfood Black Sugar Perfect Essential Scrub X2
How: I usually (as mentioned) do this in the shower, so I grab a small amount and water it down a little bit before i softly scrub over my face washing the srub off after scrubbing my face for 50 seconds to a minute. 
Another Exfoliation Method
Now and again i change it up and use a peeling gel, which i feel can provide better results, i defently see and feel the difrence afterwards.
Tumblr media
Product: Holika Holika Lazy & Easy Egg Smoothing Egg Peeling Gel
How: Squeeze a small amount onto hand and rub into face and watch how your dead skin forms into little balls, wash away with warmish water.
Tumblr media
How cute is this, I love Gudetama!
05.Toners
I actually love toners, they have actually help with my past acne scarring and seem to balance my skin's redness! Plus toners make your skin feel as soft as a babies bottom. 
Tumblr media
Product: Skinfood Black Sugar Perfect First Serum in Light
How: I usually shake some into my hand then I pat it into my face and neck. If I'm feeling fancy I'll pour some onto a cotton pad and swipe all over my face and neck. 
06.Serums
I actually just started using serums as I was kind of lost as to what they do, but honey can I tell you I'm so happy I tried it. My acnes has healed up a tonne (still have some left but it's fading which is positive) and my pores seem to be smalleer (not that they were big, to begin with). My skin legit drinks this in, i love it!
Tumblr media
Product: Innisfree Green Tea Seed Serum
How: Like the toner, i pump two pumps into my hand and dab (please don't) into my face and neck.
07.Eye Creams
Eh, I I'm sorry I don't have any Korean products to show you but this is what I've been using for the last 5 months, I'm looking for a Korean eye cream so if you have any recommendations I'll be highly grateful.
I know I'm young (17) but I still hope to keep my under eyes hydrated, that's all. I don't care about bags or darkness I just hope for them to be nice and hydrated.
Tumblr media
Product: Olay Anti-Ageing Eye Cream 
How: I lightly dip my finger into the cream and light tap it around my eyes bringing it onto my lids.
08. Moisturiser
I've had a hard time trying to find the one (not that I've had a massive look around) and I've just started using this again, I say again because I started using it about 1 -2 months ago and I started to break out. I want sure if it was something else (as I was trying other things) or it was this product. Well, I confirm that this wasn't the problem. I've been using it the last 3 - 4 days and I haven't broken out and it seems to do the job, not sure if it's going to be great in winter. It's summer where I am right now...prays. 
Moisturisers I've been using for 2 years or so, I was so bad with my skin before. Definitely, notice the different in just hydrating my face!
Tumblr media
Product: Etude House Moistful Collagen Cream 
How: I spoon a little on my hand (clean) and dot it around my face then I rub it in (not too hard) and round my face bringing it down to my neck. 
EXTRAS
This section is just other things I do now and again, spot treatments, mask, sleeping mask etc.
Spot Treatment
I usually use two things, I know one of them is a little harsh but for me, it works and it doesn't leave scarring.
Tumblr media
Product: Thursday Plantation Tea Tree Oil Antiseptic
How: I usually put some tea tree oil on a q-tip then apply to the risen pimple before bed, in the morning I make sure to wash my face.
Tumblr media
Product: Nexcare Blemish Clear Cover
How: Peel off a sticker and place over a pimple, let that stay one overnight and in the morning peel it off, carefully. You can actually see all the junk come out off onto the sticker, ew!
Sheet Masks
Sheet mask does wonders to the skin, you can get all different types brightening, moister, pore tightening etc. I usually use mask 2 - 3 times a week depending on how my skins feeling and looking. 
I've been using sheet masks for the last 1-2 years, these were the first skincare items I had even before moisturisers. I use to get mine from The Face Shop, the only Korean place in my city. I love them so much.
Tumblr media
Product: Olive Young X DreamWorks Sheet masks (Fav: Kung Fu Panda)
How: After toning your face place one of these onto your face and leave for 20-30 minutes afterwards pat what's left into your skin. 
Others:
-Innisfree Rose, Strawberry and Honey Mask
-Etude house Hydraulic and Snail Mask
-Too cool for school Egg Cream Mask
-The Face Shop Mung Bean Mask
-Nature Republic Snail Mask
Clay Mask
I do switch between sheet and clay mask every week, for me sheet masks are something that quicker and easier and clay mask are something I use when I'm not busy and have time to sit down. 
These masks are popular and everyone knows them, I personally love these two the most out of clay mask that I've tried. 
Tumblr media
Product: Innisfree Jeju Volcanic Pore Clay Mask 
How: I use the little spatula (that was in my ELIZAVECCA Carbonated mask review) and put a good amount into my hand then I spread it onto my face and leave it for 30-35 minutes. Afterwards, i wash it off with warm water and pat my face dry. 
Tumblr media
Product: Elizavecca Milky Piggy Carbonated Bubble Clay Mask 
How: Using a spatula I spread onto my face and let it bubble for 5 minutes, then I wet my hand a message my face for 2 minutes, washing it off with warm water.
I have a review on it if your interested if I remember ill leave the link here (*)
Sleeping Masks
Now and again when five had a busy day and haven't had the time to put a sheet mask or clay mask on, then ill stick with a sleeping mask. These are great for something quick to use.
Tumblr media
Product: Laneige Water Sleeping Maks
How: Apply a thin amount on your face before bed. When you have awoken wash this off with the little bit of water and notice how squishy your face is. 
Tumblr media
Product: Too cool for school Pumpkin Sleeping Pack
How: Apply a thin amount on your face before bed. When you have awoken wash this off with the little bit of water and see the brightening effects. 
Random
I got this as a freebie in Beyond and have been using it the past month, it's just a simple body moisturiser but it's so good, smells great too! 
Tumblr media
Product: Beyond Deep Moisture Body Emulsion
How: Put an appropriate amount into hand then spread over wanted dry area on the body, it's not oily so it's okay for wearing during the daytime !
Thank you for reading this very long post, I hope this was somewhat informative!
Thank you for your support again x
Till next time, Peach out 🍑

Innisfree no sebum mineral powder
Hello, Lovely!
4th blog post yay! I'm super happy with the comments that I've got, I'm so proud! Thank you to each and every one of you who comment and like these things I'm overjoyed with the response!
Anyway back to the blog post, today I'll be reviewing Innisfree no sebum mineral powder!
Tumblr media
Again when I went to Korea I knew that this was a must-have product, so many people talk about how good this is, actually how good the whole line is in general. So of course when I went into Innisfree I made a beeline for the no sebum counter. 
I had got a small tub I believe (5g) and the larger tub as I knew that this was one of the products that I would be using for the rest of my life (omg I'm so extra). The last 3-4 months I've been using this every day, the best thing is I only need a little, meaning that this should (SHOULD) last a little while. 
I mean I don't know about you but I love the simplistic mint green packaging, kind of aesthetic (?)
Tumblr media
When you open the package, there should be a little filter that allows room for the powder to come trough, when you first get it the filter is covered by sticky plastic but I took that off (ain't nobody got time for that). The powder actually smells like mint, i kind of love it... so refreshing!
Tumblr media
I apologise for the dirty puff, but this comes with the product, and I highly recommend applying the product with the puff, your makeup will look flawless. You can buy more puffs from Innisfree to if you want to refresh the puff! 
Tumblr media
The powder is super fine meaning when applying to your face, you finished makeup won't look cakey, which is so good. Nobody wants to look cakey!
The powder does glide onto the skin and your pores seem to hide behind it, it's not like some powders which make your pores stand out like heck, and your face is matte for a while. I will say that after my 3-hour shift at work and another 4 hours walking around shopping with a friend my face did get a little oiler so the effects aren't very long lasting. 
The loose powder is white, I'm not sure how that would work on tanner skin people as I'm as pale as a sheet of paper (again I'm so extra, I'm sorry;-;).
According to Innisfree, this powder claims to be pore minimising and it claims to portray a soft and powdery complexion which I agree with, my pores are smaller and my face looks flawless (like a potato).
Pro's & Con's
~Pro's
   -Does do what its claims to do
   -My face looks amazing
   -Has multiple purposes (can be used as a dry shampoo or an eye primer)
   -Cheap
~Con's
   -Doesn't really last that long
   -White cast (?)
Rating:
~Packaging
Packaging as said before simplistic and aesthetic, love the mint colour!
~Use
Super easy to use, easy to apply! Like I said before, recommend applying it with the puff given. 
~Price
I've got to love inexpensive products that work, the price is just right. I LOVE IT!
AUD: $13.53
USD:$10.17
KRW:₩12,00
~Prices are for the bigger tub, which is 15g~
~Overall Product
Love it, i recommend it to anyone wanting to conceal pores and wanting a smooth finish to their makeup, as mentions totally inexpensive. It's one of those ‘must have’ items!

ELIZAVECCA  Milky Piggy Carbonated Bubble Clay Mask
Hello, Lovely!
3rd blog post yay! The last two (on Amino) were hits and I'm really appreciative for all who commented and liked the blog post! I'm super excited to write and create more things in the future. Thank you 🍑
Anyway back to the blog post, I'll be reviewing ELIZAVECCA Milky Piggy Carbonated Bubble Clay Mask!
Tumblr media
When I had gone to Korea this was one of the items that were a must have, I had read reviews online and was so intrigued by the mask. The whole concept is funny and I kind just brought if for the reason that it foamed up. 
Actually funny enough I had a hard time trying to find it, but  mum and I had gone to 7/11 to get banana milk (which is addictive and I'm a big fan of banana milk, omo I'm salivating right now;-;) and in the store it had a small beauty section at the front, on the way out I saw this and brought it straight away, kind of funny that I found this in a 7/11 of all places. 
Tumblr media
I love the packaging, its simple but i love the little piggy with the mask on....it looks so happy!
Tumblr media
When opening the main lid, the mask has another lock tight plastic top, which is a butt to open, legit had to put a knife on the side to open it so be careful when opening.
Tumblr media
The spatula that came with its so tiny and I have to keep digging in numerous time to get an appropriate amount on my face, so I've been using the Innisfree plastic spatula which works well and I recommend for any type of mask. I believe this was only ₩1,000 which is like $1.00 (AUD) I think without converting properly. 
Tumblr media
This is a swatch (?) of the product before it bubbles up, the texture is like a cool and soft gel. Applies easily and feels nice on the face
Tumblr media
5 minutes after the mask has foamed up, after that five-minute period your meant to warm up the mask with some water and massage it for 2 minutes, afterwards washing it off. Washing it off it kinda annoying as it again turns to a gel, but once it's off your skin, you face will feel fresh and clean. 
According to a few website, the mask claims to cleanse, exfoliates, and unclogs pores which for me it does. I notice that m pores are smaller and my skin seems to be softer. 
Pro's & Con's
~Pro's
   -Does clean your skin
   -Noticeable difference
   -Fun mask to do with friends and family 
   -Good price
~Con's
  -Maybe irritable for some people as the mask does tingle and does make       your face itchy (trust me I know) 
   -Hard to get off
Rating:
~Packaging
Simplistic and cute, like I mentioned the piggy is super cute.
~Use
The spatula is a waste of time and the lock tight top is hard to get off. The mask is easy to put on but difficult to take off. 
~Price
The price is right, not overly expensive. Definitely, something to pick up for a sleepover! 
AUD: $8.37
USD:$6.33
KRW:₩7,400
~Overall Product
I love this product, super fun to use and it does do the job, might not be the best mask if you're looking for something in particular but like I said its super fun and it's also an interesting concept.  🍑PEACH APPROVED🍑

BEYOND ALICE IN GLOW CUSHION (01 MILK CAKE)
Hello, Lovely!
2nd review post YAY! I have been posting more on KBeauty amino and haven't learnt a tonne of new things so if anyone interested please look me up, my nickname is ‘Peach’ easy for you to remember.
So today I'll be reviewing Beyond's Alice in the glow cushion in my shade milk cake 01.
Tumblr media
I had gone to Korea in September of 2016, mum and I were just looking around at some shops and saw the advertisement for Beyond Alice collection, which I have to say I'm a die hard fan for everything Alice in wonderland so I knew I had to get something this collection.
The woman from Beyond had guided me around the shop and I kinda ran to the cushions as I feel in love with the front design. The Lady had giggled and commented about how good this was, she mentioned that it's a moisture and glow cushion with brightening benefits, another thing that hooked me was the amount of sunscreen added (will talk about later on).
As I said how cute is the packaging, omo im shook!
Tumblr media
On the back, its all in Korean but once opened you can use it for 12 months.  
Tumblr media
The little cushion is so cute with the shadow of Alice's body, with Beyond symbol x Alice in wonderland. There's a fair size mirror there too in case your in a rush or need to top up during the day.
Tumblr media
Opened up, the cushion is very similar to most. This does dry up, not too quick but you can use your twicers to turn the cushion around to get more product. ALWAYS USE TWICERS!. 
Tumblr media
For me, I'm very pale and this colour somewhat matches, just a little darker than my skin, but after powdering and bronzing, I can't notice it too much in the end. I apologise i don't think you can really see it on my skin. 
Tumblr media
That's a swatch of the foundation using the cushion puff, which covers the majority of the puff leaving an even coverage. 
Pro's & Con's
~Pro's
   -For me, this is a high coverage foundation
   -Easy to apply
   -Even coverage
   -Very hydrating
   -Full of sunscreen
   -Glowy and radiance 
~Con's
   -Does move as the day goes on
   -Maybe patchy depending if you use powder or not
Rating:
~Packaging
The packaging is so cute and was something that kind of sold it to me.
~Pigmentation
There is a fair bit of coverage and I use this regularly.
~Use
Again super easy to use, I always use this when I'm in a rush it does the job quickly which is a thing I look for in a product.
~Price
For me, I think this product is worth it so I don't mind paying the price, in the U.S, I'm guessing that's cheaper aha 
AUD: $29.50
USD:$22.13
KRW:₩26,000 
~Overall Product
Love it! definitely, would recommend it!

ETUDE HOUSE: LOOK AT MY EYES CAFE (RD304)
Hello, Lovely!
Please be kind this is my first blog/review type of thing I've ever done so I'm basically just a baby ;-;
Firstly I would like to say Hi, I'm one of the two admins who will be managing aegyo-beauty and I'm super excited to share my love for Asian beauty products. My name is Paige (Peach on this blog and Meowitspaige on our K-pop blog) and I recently have discovered my love for makeup and skin care particularly Korean (Asian) products. I would love to share all of my full hearted and honest opinion with you all. 
So anyway back to the topic, I shall start to review the Etude House: Look At My Eyes Cafe (RD 304), ENJOY!
Tumblr media
Late September I had bought this eyeshadow in the Etude House store in Myeongdong (one of the many), this must have been one of their eyeshadows repackaged for the 'Budapest 2016 fall line'. The last 2 and a half months I have been wearing this nearly every day, the colour is gorgeous, it's not overly pink and not overly brown, I don't know why it kinda reminds me of gingerbread cookies??? 
Tumblr media
Like all Etude House eye shadows, little hearts are indented in the shadow (so cute my heart). As you see, it doesn't look like I've used much, but as highlighted before I've used this product quite often, the fact is that the eyeshadow is very pigmented. I usually tap my brush into the shadow before applying, and that enough.   
Tumblr media
So the colour is RD304 or on the Etude House website it's all ‘Coat of Woman’. Going on the website seems to have sold out of this colour but other websites like Ibuybeauti (Who ship worldwide, Beware it's all American prices). I will leave Ibuybeauti’s, Etude House’s and other links near the end.
Tumblr media
I have light skin so I'm not sure about all of you beautiful skin coloured people but this is what the colour visually looks like, as I mentioned before it's not pink nor is it brown it's in between (or like a gingerbread cookie...I'm the worst).
On the right, I had used a brush to swipe the shadow and on the left, I just used my finger. Both work well it's up to you what you want to use when applying, personally, I use a brush as this colour is usually my crease shade.
Pro's & Con's
~Pro's
     ~Highly Pigmented/ Vivid
     ~Smooth and easy to apply
     ~Lasts all day (with eyeshadow primer on)
     ~Can be built up
    ~Cheap and easy to find
~Con's
     ~Not permeate (I believe???)
Rating:
~Packaging
Tumblr media
I love the simplicity, easy to use and open and also the to die for cute heart indents. 
~Pigmentation
Tumblr media
The Pigmentation is great and for the price its not bad.
~Use
Tumblr media
So easy to use, any type of brush or hand still gives you the best results.
~Price
Tumblr media
This Product is super cheap, for how good it is i would recommend it to any and everybody. 
AUD: $6.15
USD:$4.60
KRW:₩5373.72 
~Overall Product
Tumblr media
I give this a 5 out of 5 peaches, if you're going to Korea or are on the look out for new eyeshadows please try these!
