I'm From Mugwort Mask

Facemasking is one of my favourite downtime activities, I know that once the facemask of choice has been applied, then I am giving myself some time out to relax and unwind.  I have just finished using this tube of I'm From Mugwort Mask, which I got from Tonic15 and I absolutely love it.

The I'm From brand is one I am a little familiar with, I shared the brands Rice Toner on my blog earlier this year.  This mask is described as being a gentle wash-off mask that helps calm and soothe irritated, sensitive and troubled skin, this mask is formulated with Mugwort which has been harvested from Ganghwa County in Korea.

Admittedly, I had no idea what Mugwort was until I started using this mask, but I am told it is a natural herb which is really rich in antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals which help and work to restore, soothe, and detoxify the skin.

I really like the texture of this mask, it is thick and goopy and for me, I apply it using a spatula from another product to ensure I get an even coverage, but it applies really smoothly onto the skin. As with any mask, this one should be used on freshly cleansed skin, the mask, which doesn't dry hard, needs just 5-10 minutes on the skin before you wash it off with warm water. 

This mask doesn't have a sweet or strong floral smell, it is actually much more earthy and because there are bits of Mugwort within the mask itself, so on the skin, it is visible, but its how the skin feels afterwards which is important.  For me, whilst I don't dislike or love the scent, what I love is how smooth and clean my skin feels after using and with no irritations too, which is always a bonus.

This tube costs just £8 here and I managed to get 6 uses out of it for my face which is quit something.  There are also other sized options available and it comes in a glass pot.

Erborian Sleeping BB Mask

I have been lucky enough to try quite a few products from Erborian, a brand whose name is derived from 'Herbs of the Orient' and was born back in 2007 when two women, both experts in the demanding world of cosmetics happened to meet. Blending the power of Korean textures and ingredients with French sensoriality and know-how, Erborian was created. Today, I am sharing the Sleeping BB Mask, a product which is referred to as being a 'Night energy blast face mask'.

I am a huge fan of 'lazy skincare' and by that, I mean using products which does more work for your skin than you need too especially night time products. The Sleeping BB Mask is described as being a cocoon mask which works whilst you sleep and helps you to fight signs of fatigue, and leaves your skin feeling soft and smooth to the touch.

The texture of this sleeping mask is like a serum and the formula contains a combination of traditional herbs which includes:

• 7 Herbs complex - Used in many Erborian products for their soothing properties
• Sweet almond oil - This is softening, nourishing and helps to strengthen skin barrier function
• Sesame oil (Sesamum indicum) - An antioxidant, protects, nourishing, soothing
• Corn Oil - An emollient
• Soybean Oil - Helps to prevent skin dehydration
• Tocopherol - An antioxidant

The advice from Erborian is to use this product 2-3 times a week after cleansing and rinse off the following morning.  What I like about this mask is how it is lightweight on the skin, it sinks in and the following day, my skin is soft and smooth to the touch.

Priced at £36 via SpaceNK

Cosrx Advanced Snail Collection

The Cosrx Advanced Snail Collection* is definitely one to catch my attention and I absolutely love Korean skincare, so as a brand, Cosrx is one which appealed to me instantly. Having tried the Cosrx Low pH Good Morning Cleanser, I was keen to try more from the brand.

If you are not familiar with the brand, COSRX is a Multi-award-winning brand made famous by beauty and cosmetic experts worldwide. For over a decade MR RX studied peoples skin types and their needs in the beauty industry and it is his experience that he believed cosmetics should look for meanings more than just beauty. So, collecting what customers need and want regarding their skin types and concerns finally establishing Cosmetics + RX = COSRX was founded.

The first of the two products within this range is the COSRX Advanced Snail 92 All in one Cream which is said to contain 92% snail secretion filtrate is a gel moisturiser which helps to repair your skin.

Hyaluronic Acid is also an ingredient within this rich gel cream and not only is it soothing on the skin, but it is also designed to heal, calm, regenerates and repair the skin. The cream is also formulated to prevent breakouts and maintain skin elasticity, as well as leaving skin nourished, hydrated and healthy.

This is quite a rich gel cream and it is quite gloopy when removed from the tub and you really only need such a small amount of this at any time. On the skin, the gel quickly turns to a more watery substance and absorbs into the skin really quickly.  Once it has absorbed, my skin feels really hydrated and refreshed.  This cream is priced around £27 for 100g.

The second product within this range is the Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence and again, as with the product above, this Essence is comprised 96% of skin friendly snail secretion filtrate that is effective at repairing damaged skin, improving skin elasticity and maintaining hydration levels.

An Essence is a must-have product in many Korean skincare routines and to use it within yours, it is best to be used after a double cleanse and then toning. To use, you only need to apply a small amount on to the skin, I tend to focus on areas of my face which have dry patches and I then pat until absorbed and then apply your moisturiser.

This Essence is really lightweight, it isn't oily or tacky and you need just two pumps at most to cover your entire face or, to use as I do, one pump is more than enough.  I love having an Essence within my skincare routine, especially if my skin is feeling dehydrated.

Again available from Feelunique, this Essence is priced around £24.

Cosrx Hydrium Centella Aqua Soothing Ampoule

The final product from Cosrx in my collection is the Cosrx Hydrium Centella Aqua Soothing Ampoule*. An Ampoule is from the same family as essences and serums, only an ampoule is said to be more of a supercharged serum which has a higher concentration of active ingredients that you're meant to use as a booster or as and when you're skin is having a crisis. 

On the skin, this Ampoule is lightweight and is not greasy or tacky. It absorbs really quickly, so there is minimal contact needed with your face. It uses 42% Centella Asiatica extract which helps to calm sensitised skin and it works alongside Vitamin B5 which works to hydrate as well as to act as an anti-inflammatory for the skin. 

Designed to deliver immediate hydration for sensitive skin, the Cosrx Ampoule is really lightweight on the skin and using the pipette dropper, you need just two to three drops for your face, avoiding the eye area. I have combination oily skin which leaves me with dry patches of skin on both my cheeks and on my forehead between my brows, so a product such as this can really make a difference.

If you like the sound of this Cosrx Hydrium Centella Aqua Soothing Ampoule, it is priced around £24 on Feelunique* and the brand can also be found in Walmart* for my American readers. I have had my bottle for around 3 months and it still has more than half left and I use it a good few times a week.

Cosrx low pH GOod Morning Gel Cleanser

New to my skincare collection is COSRX who is described as being a Multi-award-winning brand made famous by beauty and cosmetic experts worldwide. For over a decade MR RX studied peoples skin types and their needs in the beauty industry and it is his experience that he believed cosmetics should look for meanings more than just beauty. So, collecting what customers need and want regarding their skin types and concerns finally establishing Cosmetics + RX = COSRX was founded.

COSRX as a brand is built on 3 concepts:

• Simplicity – using only key ingredients, avoiding any redundancies, will not only reduce the chance of skin irritation but also provide a simple solution.
• High performance – active ingredients to maximum concentration to maximise the effect.
• Cost effectiveness – sufficient volume and plentiful solution at a reasonable price.

For many of us, understanding the basics of skincare and its suitability for your skin can be an absolute minefield, too many 'experts' claim to know what will and won't work for you along with an never-ending list of products you need in your routine, for some, has lead to more confusion and over-use. So sometimes, it is a good idea to go back to basics and find out what works on your skin for yourself.

I have been using the Cosrx Low pH Gel Cleanser and it is described as being a daily face wash that is gentle enough for sensitive skin types.  I use this as a morning cleanser, usually, after I have showered, I still can't be one of those people who washes their face in the shower, weird yes.

Featuring a mildly acidic pH, the cleansing formula is similar to skin’s natural pH level, so once you have finished using it, it doesn't leave your skin feeling stripped of all moisture and taut.  Designed to remove dirt and grime that has been produced by your skin as you sleep, this Cleansing Gel uses Tea Tree Oil, an ingredient you most definitely do notice, to also help remove excess sebum, making it ideal for those, like me, who have combination oily skin.  Using it in a morning, that Tea Tree scent most definitely gives you a wake-up call, as it cleans the skin and I am quite the fan of the fragrance and I love how clean it leaves my skin feeling.  There is also the inclusion of Betaine Salicylate which is essentially a natural chemical exfoliant that helps to keep your pores clean and free from dead skin cells and also Saccharomyces Ferment, a fermented yeast which I am told is responsible for the bright, hydrated glow we all yearn to have.

The formula of this cleanser is Gel, it isn't a foaming gel, it does, however, lather really nicely and because it is a fairly thick consistency, you need only a small pea-sized amount to clean the entirety of your face.  I have been using this for weeks every single day as my morning cleanser and I have not had a single reaction or break-out after using, though thankfully I don't ever suffer from break-outs. What I love is that clean feeling after using and given it is priced at around £14 it is worth every penny.

You can find this Corsrx low pH Good Morning Gel Cleanser and the rest of the Cosrx range via Feelunique*.

Make P:rem Radiance Me. Mild Essential Peeling Review

Through my love of K-Beauty products I have been lucky enough to come across some amazing brands and everything I have tried and reviewed can be found in my K-Beauty Section. The latest addition to my collection is the Make P:rem Radiance Me. Mild Essential Peeling which I was kindly sent to try from Tonic-15.

Described as being a gentle exfoliator that reveals radiant and glowing skin without irritating. The unique essence-like texture also helps to soothe and hydrate the skin, transforming the skin to be bright and smooth. Like many K-Beauty products, this one has some amazing ingredients included within it and they are:

• Wintergreen leaf extract which naturally contains Salicylic Acid to gently exfoliates
• Squalane lightly hydrates the skin without any heaviness
• Moringa oil which is rich in antioxidants

My skin absolutely loves all things Salicylic Acid and what I really have loved about this product is that the texture of the cream is not at all thick, it has the feeling of a gel cleanser and when you apply it to the skin, it feels soothing but the magic happens as you massage it onto the skin, you can see the results almost immediately when those dead skin cells are broken down. it is quite grim to begin with but as soon as you splash your face with warm water to remove all the residue, the after feeling of soft, smooth skin is incredible.  

Priced at £24 here, this has been quite the discovery and for anyone who has sensitive skin, this is definitely worth trying because not once has it irritated, stung or left my skin feeling taut and dry.

Touch in SOL Metallist Sparkling Foiled Pigment eyeshadows + swatches!

If you haven't heard me go on (and on) about Touch in SOL then you are absolutely missing out.  I have been really lucky to try out pretty much everything the brand has to offer from primers and lipstick to eyeshadow and makeup setting sprays! For me, Touch in SOL is an exciting brand and it has been designed to embrace the spirit of Korean innovation. Simply put, Touch In Sol is fun, innovative and uses some of the most advanced technologies out there.

Today I am really excited to share the Metallist Sparkling Foiled Pigment Shadows with you, something I had seen a sneak preview of quite some time ago, but felt like I have had to wait forever for them to be available.  Well not any longer because I have 6 of the 7 shades available and as soon as they arrived, I was swatching them before a single photo had been taken!  Now, if you love your eyeshadows to be something really different, that does exactly what it claims it will do and is not going to annoy your bank manager with their price then these might just be the best £14 you have ever spent and they are available both online and in some stores from Boots!

A lot of brands claim to have Foiled pigment shadows and I have shared my disappoint with one or two on both my blog and instastories over recent months because they have all been pretty much a huge letdown.  Well Touch in SOL have managed to do what no other brand has done.  

Like the rest of the METALLIST range, these pioneering pigments are true to form in colour payoff and lasting wearability but their intensity doesn’t stop there.

Each minute and light reacting pigment particle with its Diamond and Pearl Powder formulation will have you caught up in a mesmerising finish of intense sparkle and noticeable high shine.

Each shadow comes encased inside its own 13g pot and thankfully it does have a lid which allows you to see through to what colour the shade is.

The six shades I have are:

• Cream Peach - is a very warm-toned, light peach orange
• Honey Brown - is a very warm-toned, light-medium brown
• Sun Aurora - is a very warm-toned, light duochrome orange
• Holo Mulberry - warm-toned, medium duochrome light brown
• Persian Rose - is a very warm-toned, medium plum
• Aurora Taupe - is a moderately warm-toned, light-medium taupe

As you can see, each of the shades has two names and for me this is because they all have Diamond and Pearl Powder as part of the formula to provide that gorgeously colourful shimmer and what I love is that the colour does change depending on how the light hits it, so on a bright sunny day, your Persian Rose shade which is a deep rose colour could look more burgundy with a hint of purple too it.  I have used each and every one of these shades and find myself flitting between Cream Peach, Honey Brown and Aurora Taupe, the two neutral shades with an incredible iridescent shimmer.

These Sparkling Foiled Pigment Shadows are absolutely everything their name says they are - sparkly, foil and pigmented.  When applying, I find it easier to use my fingertips to lightly apply to my lids and then depending on whether or not you really want that subtle look or whether you want to really get yourself noticed, you can build up the colour and then grab a blending brush to blend out any harsh lines.  The shadows don't need to be wet, they are good enough to simply open the pot, swipe and go, there is no fall-out, it doesn't itch or scratch the eye, there is no creasing and naturally when it comes to removal, you need your usual eye makeup remover to remove the shadow as you see it and then because there is a lot of sparkles, a micellar water or your normal cleanser to ensure it has all gone.

Shown below you will see some unedited swatches, they were taken on one of the hottest days of the year, so they differ in colour to that of the pots shown above and this is one of the reasons I am a huge fan of these shadows.

On the top swatch from left to right, you can see Sun Aurora, Honey Brown and Cream Peach and on the bottom swatches, again from left to right you can see Aurora Taupe, Persian Rose and Holo Mulberry.  The swatches are literally created from one finger on the pigment and then a swipe down the wrist, no need to swirl your brush or fingers around to get a hint of colour because it is there.

If a brand is going to make a pigmented foil shadow, then for me, they have to be in the league with Touch in SOL because these are simply superb and all for just £14 each from Boots and ASOS with the rest of the Touch in SOL rage being found Debenhams.

Jinmee Hydrapuff Skincare Sheets

I think it is far to say that I am a bit of a fan when it comes to Korean Beauty and over the past few weeks I have been having a good play around with a product from Jinmee, a new Korean Brand.  The translation of Jinmee is 'best beauty' and their aim is to bring everyone the best beauty products whilst keeping things simple. 

The Hydrapuff is an ultra-thin, multi-purpose skincare sheet, and unlike conventional cotton pads that just drink up liquids but are unable to release and redistribute product, once you add liquid to Hydrapuff, it transforms to a soft, gel-like tissue that clings perfectly to your skin, allowing for all that product to be absorbed where it's needed.  The standard pads absorb 100% of the product you add be it a toner, oil, essence and so on as long as it is a liquid because this works best and it is what the Hydrapuffs are designed to be used with. and what this means is that if you are a fan of multi-masking, you can use add the products you need, in the places you need without minimum effort.

The Hydrapuff itself is a bit of a multitasking product too, you can use it to tone, mask or for added hydration:

• Toning - Soak both parts of the Hydrapuff with your favourite toner, essence or serum and gently pat skin, allowing them to be absorbed.
• Hydration - For extra hydration, add more product if needed and split the sheet in the middle.
• Masking - Apply each Hydrapuff sheet directly onto your skin, on cheeks or desired area and then leave for 5-10 minutes before removing.

I really like being able to use the Hydrapuff with my toner, because they absorb so much more liquid, so not only do you use much less, it also means your toners last longer and I am currently using them with my Caudalie Toner, which I absolutely love.  I have also used it with a whole host of oils which are great when your skin is in need of a hydration boost.

The Hydrapuffs are not only biodegradable, but they are also cruelty-free and Vegan. Priced at £6.50 for a pack of 60 double sheets from Jinmee.

It's Skin - Cookie & Hand Cream Strawberry

I love Korean Beauty, the whole subject just fascinates me and It's Skin is a brand I have started to get to know through various products, some of which I have featured on my blog such as Power 10 VC Cleansing Foam and Power 10 VC Effector Serum which I absolutely loved and I now have my eye on the Tiger Cica range, which sounds incredible. However, today it is the turn of Cookie & Hand Cream Strawberry (£9.50) which is one of three hand creams available from this range. 

Described as being a rich, sweet-smelling hand cream, it comes packaged inside a sturdy plastic tub, which could be forgiven for looking very similar to a tub of ice cream you might very well treat yourself too at the theatre. Once the lid has been removed, it looks very much like a dessert and smells good enough to be one, though the scent could have been a little bit fresher than it is.

The cream is said to instantly nourish and soften the skin and once applied, its ice-cream like texture, which is really easy to scoop out of the tub, melts onto the skin when it comes into contact.  What I like about the cream is that the little brown particles, which remind me of Oreo Cookie crumbs but they do have a purpose within this cream and that is to exfoliate the skin, which they sort of do, but because the pieces are not abrasive, they just dissolve and disappear on the skin.  The hand cream uses Macadamia Seed Oil and Shea Butter. Mango Seed Butter and Sweet Almond Oil gently nourishes and heals the skin.  

I have fairly dry hands, so I had hoped for a cream that would be intensely nourishing, but it isn't as good as I had hoped it would be, it is nice and I love the concept, but I just have better hand creams to use which work much better on my skin.  In its favour, it is lightly textured and it doesn't feel greasy or tacky on the skin and once it has absorbed, the scent only lingers for an hour max afterwards, so even if you didn't like the scent, it isn't too long lasting.

As mentioned, as well as being available in a Strawberry scent, there is also the option to have Mint or Original and you can find them right HERE* via Beauty Bay.

K-GLO Sheet Masks

If you hadn't guessed by now, I am a huge fan of K-Beauty brands and I am over the moon that as the weeks pass by, more and more brands are becoming available to try. Brands such as touch in SOL, Tony Moly and even Missha now being widely available. As trends go K-Beauty is one which is growing and for me, what intrigues me is just how far, technologically advanced Korean Beauty is. The latest brand to arrive is K-Glo and they come with the tagline “from Korea with love”. K-Glo is an award-winning Vegan brand who are now available in Boots.

Offering masks for the face, hands, eyes and feet, I was kindly sent four of the K-Glo Sheets masks to try, each being incredibly affordable at just £4.99, a lot less than I had been expecting to pay for these masks.

The first mask is the K-Glo Smoothing Coconut Bio-Cellulose Eye Mask and it is made of naturally fermented coconut juice and formulated with top skincare ingredients and traditional Korean skincare wisdom such as Birch Sap to revitalise and deliver a nutritive boost to the skin.

K-GLO® Smoothing Coconut Bio-Cellulose Mask is an intensive all-round eye treatment to nourish and plump the skin, leaving you with smoother and brighter skin. 

Ideal for dark circles, wrinkles and puffiness, this mask not only fits under the eye but it goes above the eye as well, so it pretty much looks like the mask you would wear at night time, but with holes for the eyes.

What I love about this mask is just how soothing it feels on the skin.  This is my favourite mask of the four and definitely one that I would repurchase.

The second mask is the K-GLO® Balancing Coconut Bio-Cellulose Face Mask. This mask is a purifying treatment that calms uneven and breakout-prone skin to restore youthful radiance.

K-GLO® Balancing Coconut Bio-Cellulose Face Mask is a revitalising treatment that replenishes dull skin and lightens the appearance of dark spots.

This mask is again packed full of amazing ingredients which include Coconut Juice, Aloe Vera and Witch Hazel, thankfully the witch hazel isn't too potent it makes your eyes water. 

This mask is ideal for oily, blemish-prone and blotchy skin and if you have the sniffles, it really helps to clear your sinuses, which isn't a primary use of the mask, but it is an added bonus.

The third mask within this collection is the K-GLO® Hydrating Coconut Bio-Cellulose Mask and it is the kind of mask you need to have in your collection when you really want to give your skin a good pampering.

K-GLO® Hydrating Coconut Bio-Cellulose Mask is an intense hydration boost for softer, smoother and more youthful-looking skin.

This mask is perfect for those who have dehydrated, rough and dry skin and it contains Coconut Juice, Sea Buckthorn and Hyaluronic Acid. 

On the skin, again the mask is incredibly soothing and it really does give your skin a hydration boost.

The final mask is the K-GLO® Brightening Coconut Bio-Cellulose Mask and if you have dull looking skin, then this is the mask for you.

K-GLO® Brightening Coconut Bio-Cellulose Mask is a revitalizing treatment that replenishes dull skin and lightens the appearance of dark spots.

This mask is ideal for those with dark spots, uneven skin tone or dull and tired skin. This mask is packed full of amazing ingredients which my skin absolutely loves and they include Coconut Juice, Green tea and Niacinamide. 

For me, this is the perfect hangover mask, when you are particularly hanging and everything aches and needs some love and attention, this is the mask you need.

These masks are an incredible value for money and because the masks are made of Bio Cellulose, they are soothing on the skin, don't irritate and tend to stick to the skin so much better than other sheet masks that I have used.  I love that there is a mask for every concern, including one that I haven't tried which is the K-GLO® Firming Coconut Bio-Cellulose Mask which is described as being a super anti-ageing treatment to boost skin elasticity and smooth out fine lines for a firmer and more lifted look. As well as masks for the face, you will also find two further masks which are the K-GLO® Nourishing Hand Mask and the K-GLO® Exfoliating AHA Foot Mask Socks, both of which I am hoping will come to Boots*.
