Product Review : OMG IT'S THE MAYBELLINE PURE BB MINERAL MOUSSE!

I demand all my readers to applaud me for doing this at 3.31am!!! Okay, I'm kidding. I love reviewing products and it's my interest. Which is why I have this blog. But then again, it's really 3.31am.

Moving on, remember how I promised this would be up by Wednesday? Yeap you can see for yourself today, the amount of reviews we have decided to spam in one day.

You can see the review for it's sister, Maybelline Clear Smooth Mineral BB Cream here!

Less words, more pictures!!!

*Holy light shines from behind and you hear a heavenly cry~*

Ignore the mess at the back. It's always there! Proudly presenting the Maybelline Pure BB Mineral Mousse that Xuan bought for me from Taiwan! Thanks Xuan!!!

We did this in the morning so say hi to our tired faces. (Yet again)

My eyebags in its full glory

Skin is alright, but overall a little puffy.

Okay weird angle... But I was sleepy!!! ||orz

So after seeing our tired faces... Which I believe you're not interested in... Here's the mousse!!!

I am SHROOM.

Not edible!

Good mousse shouldn't just plop off! SCORE~ Ignore Ringo's hand!!!

I know, it's so cute right? But... Yes, there's a but.

Upper blob - Fresh / Bottom blob - Oxidized

The picture isn't too bad, but in RL it oxidizes REALLY quickly. It's no joke. From a normal BB cream color to one with really strong orange undertones. But! Don't get scared off yet.

Upper - Ringo(NC15) / Lower - Chiharu(NC20)

Same as above sequence but blended out.

If you're super pale like Ringo, the orange undertone will peek through. A little obvious. Don't faint yet. You have to see it on the face first!

After using it....

Can you see how crazily good the coverage is?! All redness is gone from her face! The orange cast isn't super obvious, it's very slight and can be easily countered with powder.

Eyebags gone, don't look as tired! Skintone evened out too.

Unlike Ringo, I'm not super pale. The orange cast is super not visible on me so I'm safe!

MY SAY

Let's talk color. It's quite orangey yellowy but definitely more orange. It won't show if you set it with powder unless you're really ghost pale. The good thing about this color is that tanned babes will love it! It won't leave a whitish cast on your skin. Remember how the Maybelline Clear Smooth Mineral BB cream had two colors? This one is leaning more towards shade 2, the natural shade.

I love the coverage though, isn't it great that you don't have to use another concealer? Also applying this on your face is plain fun because it's not always that you get to put mousse on your face. Precisely because it's a mousse, it's very light in texture, similar to it's sister, the Maybelline Clear Smooth Mineral BB cream! I can't tell you the ingredients in this though because the ingredients list is super puny. I get cross eyed attempting to read it. So yea, I don't know how similar they are to each other in terms of ingredients.

Above were what I can consider the good points. On to the bad...

THIS DOES NOT STAY PUT!!! I swear. I tried putting my favorite loose powder to set it and guess what? It doesn't work. Say you have a runny nose. It'll come off once you blow your nose on a tissue. Or maybe your face felt itchy and you scratched at it. Say goodbye to the BB cream. This absolutely does not adhere well to my face at all! o(╥﹏╥)o

This also goes on a little streaky so I would suggest application with your fingers. It's the fastest way and it will never leave streaks!

A little comparison picture to remind all of you what it does!

I just love the coverage on Ringo!

I like mousse and coverage again~

If you find a way to set it really well, let me know! It's a waste to let this product go just because it doesn't set like I want it. Perhaps dry skin babes would adore this? This is currently unavailable in Singapore so if you want it... Comment below and if we gather enough, we could possibly get Maybelline Singapore to do something about it? :D

Otherwise if you're afraid of it sliding off, stick to the sister!

Texture: ★ ★ ★ ★ ☆ (One star off because of possible streakiness)

Coverage: ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ (The coverage is amazing! Refer to pictures for evidence~)

Lasting Power: ★ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ (I guess if you don't ever touch or blot your face it might stay?)

Overall: ★ ★ ☆ ☆ ☆ (I swear the coverage is the plus point. Super great! But why you slide /.\)

Cheers,
Chiharu ❤

Product Review : Dove Lathering Oil Make-up Remover

Hellooo Domokies! Long time no review for you peeps so here's one~

Today's product is a cool make up remover from Dove! Why cool? That's just because it self-foams and to me that's cool.  (￣▽￣) I shall not be lame.

So the product looks like this...

It's the Dove Lathering Oil Make-up Remover! And as always, I do put up the picture of the ingredients list for all of you in case anyone's sensitive to it. Other than that... I'm not a very ingredient particular person unless the product smells really strongly of alcohol. My face is that thick skinned. (´･ω･｀)

Here you go~

It's not of the best quality but I'm quite sure you should be able to see the ingredients!

Also, I'm quite sure the name of this product is quite misleading? Truly I don't see any oil in the ingredient list but it could be me being blur so correct me if I'm wrong. This product is NOT oily at all! All the descriptions and instructions can be seen in the picture so I'm not going to say more because this product cannot be found on the Dove website..? It's made in Japan and to me, anything that's made in Japan is SAFE!

On to what the product itself looks like on the inside!

As you can see, it comes out super thick and creamy. Spreads super well and still remains foamy.

My take on this product? I want to say I really love it. Truly I do, but only when I do NOT have waterproof make up on. This removes eyeshadow, blush, eyeliner, lipstick, everything. Just not waterproof mascara /.\ I am a girl who loves my waterproof mascara because of my stubborn-refuse-to-stay-curled eyelashes. I can't do without it and I certainly do not like using two different make up removers just because.

It does smell pretty decent for a make up remover and the best thing about this is that you don't feel anything on your face afterwards. No greasy feeling, no film of whatever substance on your face whatsoever. It feels really fresh and clean and I don't think it dries my face out. Do take note however that it could be because my face isn't particularly dry to begin with. I would say that after this I'm pretty sure no one would need another cleanser if they do not have waterproof mascara on. I love using this!!! Just well, the downside is pretty worth deducting points of this remover (´～`)

Let's not be too lengthy and allow me to do my usual summary~

Scent : ★ ★ ★ ☆ ☆ (Nothing unpleasant so this is pretty average)

Texture : ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ (I really like how this works, the fluffy texture!)

Effectiveness : ★ ★ ★ ☆ ☆ (2 stars off for being unable to remove waterproof mascara)

Overall : ★ ★ ★ ☆ ☆ (Better than average but still not the best)

I'm not sure where you can get this though. I think maybe Watsons or NTUC? I got mine online! Also I believe all skin types can use this as it's gentle enough!

Cheers,

Chiharu ❤
