Missha Perfect Cover BB Cream SPF 42 PA+++

I have had some experiences with Missha products before. But none of them has done me an impressive result. The sunscreen was so-so, the pen eyeliner was crap!! I haven't been interested in Missha products eversince. But this BB cream, I have read some good reviews about this, and actually tried the sample from an online seller (from whom I bought my Isa Knox BB cream), before I finally came to a decision to buy this.

This BB cream has 2 shades, #21 and #23. The #23 is darker than the other, though it's still suitable for a fair Asian skin (with yellow tone). I decided to buy the darker one, since I don't wanna look like a lost geisha (geisha nyasar) hehehe. Unlike the previous products, I think Missha has improved its technology and maybe ingredients for its products. It has released some new products with excellent quality (especially BB creams).

This BB cream has no scent, with a quite thick texture, but still build able, though you still need a good moisturizer beneath this, in order to spread the cream evenly onto your entire face. Look at the pic below, you might see the cream has a medium-dark tone, but actually if you already spread it on your face, this makes your skin much brighter. Therefore, this bb cream might not be suitable for dark-skinned people.

It is supposed to do a great oil-control on oily-skinned people. But, I have a normal-dry skin, and I still love how this cream works on me. It doesn't dry my skin, and actually gives glow to my face. It's non-shimmery, and has medium coverage. Though it gives a matte-finish, it's not dull at all. So, I believe this would be great for people with pale skin as well.

Besides oil-control, it also offers healing props for your blemishes and wrinkles. Well, I can't say much about this, since I have no problems with both of them. However, some reviews said that yes, it indeed improves their skin condition. 

There's even a better news about this. It has a high protection sunscreen with SPF 42 PA+++!!! For women with a strict budget and time for make-up, this is absolutely a MUST HAVE stuff!! Where on earth, you can have a BB cream with healing props, decent coverage, sun protection, oil-control and even gives you a healthy glow within one mini tube for only Rp 125-150.000 (US$ 12-15)??

The above pic is my FOTD with Missha PC BB cream #23 and Enprani Loose Powder.
All in all, of course I should rate this product 5 out of 5 for all its benefits and price. ^__^V

Kose Fasio Power Stay Mascara 3D+ Curl Volume

Fasio is one of the brands that stand under Kose cosmetic corporation. The best products from Fasio, as far as I know, are the eye make-up lines. I've read heaps of reviews raving about the mascara. As I went to One Utama mall in Malaysia, I found this Fasio mascara at a purse-friendly price. I bought this faboulous mascara at around RM 28. The price is no higher than a Maybelline, I supposed. So I decided to buy one.

This mascara comes in a very simple appearance. Only a plain-bright orange and a metalic cap with the brand name printed on it. Looks very typical as a drugstore line. But really you cannot judge a book by its cover. I would say this is the best mascara I've ever tried so far. (Note that I only had experience with some sorts of Maybelline and Make Up Store mascaras). The brush is quite mini compared to most other mascaras, but it's not as small as Maybelline Lash Discovery mascara (which is already discontinued). Nevertheless, I feel more comfortable using this Fasio brush than the Maybelline one. I don't know exactly why, it just seems perfect for my lashes.

It surely lifts up my lashes and brings 'life' to my eyes. It lengthens and gives volume to my lashes. The good thing is that it keeps my lashes stay up after long hours, does not weighs down my lashes as other mascaras did. It looks really natural but lively on my eyes.

The second great thing is that it is not clumpy and doesn't smudge even if I apply it for a couple of times. I suppose, the texture of the liquid is just so perfect so it's neither too thick nor easily dried out.

And this is absolutely waterproof. It doesn't fade or make panda eyes either even after I rinse my entire face with water and foam. It can only be cleared off by cleansing oil, and still you need to rub well to take it off thoroughly.

This is my EOTD wearing Fasio Mascara. I also wore Etude House Petite Darling e/s cream and Koji Springheart auto pencil eyeliner in this pic.

This is a total holy grail and I would rate this product 5 out of 5 for all aspects: curling, lengthening, volumizing, waterproof and of course. It is exactly worth every penny that I spent.
