Focallure We Care Your Favors - First Impressions

I bought this as part of my shopping therapy.  Hoping it can make me happy and feel better.  I got influenced by youtubers to buy this palette.  This is really on trend, because it's really affordable and you get to have a lot of shades.  Which was why it was really popular.

Kiss Me Heavy Rotation Brow Mascara - First Impressions

I'm not a brow mascara person, in fact I don't own one, until in one of my HK hauls, one of the beauty stores gave me a sample brow mascara for free.

With all those disclaimers said, here goes....

Packaging	This is trial size only, but very cute and perfect for travelling.  It's in a brown plastic tube with gold lettering.

Chulala Deep Cleansing Pack - First Impressions

This was sent to me by Amabie.com in exchange for honest review as being part of their Alist for the month.  This is the 3rd product in the package.

I was excited to use this since it's my first time to ever try a wash off mask.  I always thought I'm too lazy to go through the hassle of applying, waiting, then eventually washing, so I never experimented on a clay mask before.  I usually go with face mask sheet since it's more convenient for my busy lifestyle as a healthcare practitioner.

Packaging	The container is a plastic tube type with foil and printed label on the back and front.  I like that the plastic tube is easy to squeeze the product out.  There's a white mouth typically seen in these types of squeezy tubes.

Day to Fox Makeup Challenge

We attended a postgraduate course by PURA in the morning, and at night attended a Little Prince themed birthday party.  I thought of this makeup challenge transforming into fox makeup in the afternoon without getting back home to get my complete makeup set.

Also this was my first time to do this fox makeup, no practice before (didn't have time to practice).  I just thought, "bahala na si batman".

So here's my look:

This is one of the products sent by Amabie.com in exchange for honest review being an Alist for the month of April.

Packaging	This comes in what looks like a recycled box packaging.  The product is 80g as written in the box.   The soap itself is round with slightly oval shape.

Peripera Airy Ink Velvet - Review

I've been feeling really down lately. Things happening in the hospital could really affect the doctors. I don't think doctors could really fully separate their lives in the hospital and outside of it, since you get to care so much for your patient and you get affected with what happens to them.

Anyways, I'm writing this in the hopes at least I feel a little better, some light of positivity.

Packaging	This I think is the latest collection from the Peripera Ink line.  Peripera Airy Ink Velvet, people have been raving about it.  It has a similar ink bottle packaging, with a frosted plastic look, which I find really unique.

Aeria Skin: Even-Tone Brightening Face Mask Sheet

I received this as one of the products sent by Amabie to me for free to give an honest review. I was lucky to be part of their Alist the past month.  Don't know how that happened since I am only a newbie in reviewing cosmetic products.  Anyways I feel honored to be part of their Alist.

Packaging	This has a peachy brown foil sachet packaging.  It's great that even if this was made in Taiwan, there's English written so I can understand it.
