Mini Review: Beautibi’s Classic Mini Set
In addition to buying the Classic Mini Set, I also purchased a full size of the Simplistic Wonder Essence and Ladykin Affinitic Whitening Gel Moisturizer (Travel size).
The Mini Set includes:
HYGEE One Step Facial Essence Sample Kit: 2 vials each of the Fresh and Balance.
Mini 107 Vinegar Soap
Simplistic Wonder Essence (2 samples)
107 Snow Mask Sheet
I wish I had unboxing photos because each item was wrapped in this gorgeous jade blue tissue paper, but I was too impatient and ripped open all the packaging. :)
If you notice in the photo, however, I was sent 3 Fresh and 1 Balance vial(s). I contacted Beautibi via Facebook Messenger and they sent me another kit very swiftly. Excellent service! Will repurchase from the company in the future.
Also, I took a long time before posting this because I wanted to test the essences out for a long time.
So, now to the review. As a note, I have sensitive, acne-prone, combination skin. I am trying to avoid things with coconut oil derived ingredients because I know my skin has reacted horribly to it.
107 Snow Mask Sheet
Ingredients:
Water,Glycerin,Niacinamide, Butylene Glycol, PEG/PPG17/
6 Copolymer, Panthenol, Snail Secreation Filtrate, Propolis Extract, Morus Alba Bark Extract, Pearl Extract, BetaGlucan, Thuja Orientalis
Extract, Xanthan Gum, Carbomer, Hydroxyethylcellulose, PEG60
Hydrogenated Caster Oil, Allantoin, Disodium EDTA, Illicium
Verum (Anise) Fruit Extract, Propanediol, 1,2Hexanediol,Caprylyl Glycol, Tromethamine, Chlorphenesin, Phenoxyethanol, Fragrance
Though Capryly Glycol is on the list of ingredients, it’s lower on the list, so the concentration won’t bother me, I think. I usually don’t have issues with sheet masks, but it doesn’t hurt to check.
It fit well on my face. Very thin cotton that was translucent. There was not a particular fragrance. Felt nice and cool on my face. Overall, though, I didn’t really notice any immediate effects of increased moisture or brightness. It just felt like a generic sheet mask.
Rating: ★★★☆☆ I would’t buy it, but I would use it.
Mini 107 Vinegar Soap
Ingredients:
Myristic Acid, Stearic Acid, Lauric Acid , Triethanolamine, Propylene Glycol, Sugar, Sorbitol, Alcohol,NAOH, Tetrasodium EDTA, BHT, Sodium Sulfite, Vinegar(Gamun’s Hyo 5years), Coconut Oil, Oriental Herb Complex (Panax Ginseng Root Extract, Saururus Chinensis Extract, Angelica root Extract, Green Tea Extract, Artemisia capillaris Extract, Sophora Extract, Chamaecyparis Obtusa Leaf Extract, Houttuynia Cordata Extract, Dandelion Extract, Chrysanthellum Indicum Extract, Phellodendron Amurense Bark Extract, Glycyrrhiza Extract, Morus Alba Bark Extract, Cnidium Officinale Root Extract, Rehmannia Chinensis Root Extract, Acorus Calamus Root Extract, Portulaca Oleracea Extract, Pinus Densiflora Leaf Extract, Opuntia FicusIndica Extract, Nettle Extract, Fragrance
Sigh. I absolutely have no idea why I tried this considering the list of ingredients: MYRISTIC ACID, LAURIC ACID, COCONUT OIL. All the things I should look at and think, maybe I should just use this as hand soap. Buuut, I went ahead and did it.
It smells like...those bags of sea glass that you can get at Michael’s. Fresh, pungent, clean smell. I used a foaming net to lather it up and create a foam to wash my face.
Sigh. It felt nice during the cleansing portion. Afterwards, my skin felt irritated and stripped. Very dry, and my face immediately started forming little bumps/what looks like closed comedones. Nope nope nope.
Rating: ★☆☆☆☆ Would not repurchase. I will use as hand soap. :(
Simplistic Wonder Essence
Ingredients:
Amaranthus Hypochondriacus Seed Extract, Butylene Glycol, Chamomilla Recutita (Matricaria) Flower Extract, Bifida Ferment Lysate, Glycerin, Niacinamide, 1,2Hexanediol, Glutathione, Pinus Radiata Bark Extract, BetaGlucan, Allantoin, Trehalose, Sodium Hyaluronate, Polyglutamic Acid, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice Powder, Soy Isoflavones, Centella Asiatica Extract, Glycyrrhiza Glabra (Licorice) Root Extract, Portulaca Oleracea Extract, Adenosine, Disodium EDTA
I like this list. Bifida Ferment, Niacinamide, Beta-Glucan, Centella Asiatica, Soy, Licorice..no coconut!
Can I also just say I LOVE the full size bottle. It really piques my minimalist aesthetic feels. It’s just *beautiful*.
As for the actual product, it is an amber color with a light herbal scent. It is definitely more watery than some moisturizing toners (like Klairs) I have used. So, use as toner or essence..? I’ve kind of used it as both. I can’t say that it’s a miraculous product, but it’s not bad. It’s nice to have to change things up, and add another thin layer of moisture.
Rating: ★★★☆☆ I would’t buy it, but I would use it.
HYGGEE Fresh(pH 6.80±0.50) One Step Facial Essence
For Excessive Oil and Dehydrated Skin (Oily/Combination/Sensitive)
Ingredients:
Betula Platyphylla Japonica Juice, Glycerin, Butylene Glycol, Diethoxyethyl Succinate, Methyl Trimethicone, Water, Propanediol, Dipropylene Glycol, Pentylene Glycol, Linum Usitatissimum (Linseed) Seed Extract, Citrus Aurantium Bergamia (Bergamot) Fruit Oil, Lactobacillus Ferment, Lactococcus Ferment Lysate, Bifida Ferment Lysate, Streptococcus Thermophilus Ferment, Pyrus Malus (Apple) Fruit Extract, Polyglyceryl-6 Stearate,1,2Hexanediol, Panthenol, Polymethylsilsesquioxane, Acrylates/C1030, Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer, Choleth24,Tromethamine, Polyacrylamide, Glyceryl Caprylate , Glyceryl Polyacrylate, C13-14 Isoparaffin, Polyglyceryl6 Behenate, Laureth 7, Ethylhexylglycerin, Butyl Avocadate, Caprylic / Capric Triglyceride, Phospholipids, Ceramide 3, Cholesterol, Arginine, Propyl Gallate, Phytosterols, Xanthan Gum, Disodium EDTA, Phenoxyethanol
I definitely checked off all everything on the list they provided to figure out which one suits your skin best.
I feel a little dry after cleansing my face. I use fresh and light cosmetics. ✔
I become oily in the afternoon. ✔
I’m concerned about big pores and whiteheads. ✔
I use less basic cosmetics during hot weather. ✔
It has the texture of a light gel, foggy/milky in color. Another great product for thin layer of moisture. However, it don’t think it really suits its “all-in-one” description. I think it’s best as a light moisturizer than anything.
Rating: ★★★☆☆ I would use it, and potentially buy again.
HYGGEE Balance (pH 5.50±0.50) One Step Facial Essence
For Dry and Sensitive Skin lacking both moisture and oil (Dry/Aging/Sensitive)
Ingredients:
Betula Platyphylla Japonica Juice, Macadamia Integrifolia Seed Oil, Octyldodecanol, Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil, Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil, Squalane, 1,2Hexanediol, Pentylene Glycol, Pyrus Malus (Apple) Seed Oil, Water, Citrus Aurantium Bergamia (Bergamot) Fruit Oil, Lactobacillus Ferment, Lactococcus Ferment Lysate, Bifida Ferment Lysate, Streptococcus Thermophilus Ferment, Glycerin, Sodium Chloride, Glyceryl Caprylate , Butylene Glycol,Ethylhexylglycerin, Caprylic / Capric Triglyceride, Phospholipids, Ceramide 3, Cholesterol, Arginine, Phytosterols, Xanthan Gum, Phenoxyethanol
I feel dry right after cleansing my face. ✘
I use rich moisturizing creams every day. ✘
I drink coffee more than water. ✔
I see fine wrinkles around my eyes. ✘
I am exposed to a dry environment. ✘
I tried this out anyway. The dual phase quality of this essence is aesthetically pleasing and I enjoy shaking it before use. Oily, yet light. Like a thin facial oil. It does have a more...synthetic scent, which I found more prominent in this one versus the Fresh version. But the texture of this as an oil reminds me more of an essence than the Fresh one. So, despite having sensitive/combo skin, I think my skin likes this a bit more.
Rating: ★★★★☆ I would use it, and potentially buy again.
