Run Free

Heyo! As I told you in my earlier post, I have started working out. I started running about a month ago and came to a conclusion that barefoot running is my thang and decided to buy Vibram Five Fingers! I ordered mine from a Finnish fishing/outdoor/sports online store called Varuste.net and I paid 123.90 € for these, including shipping. The model I got is Treksport.

These are so far the most comfortable shoes I have ever worn and I love love love these! It takes some time to get used to them, but I think it is worth it. Some people say that these are ugly, but I think they're actually quite cute. ♥

I really have started to love running. I love challenging myself, the beautiful views I get to see, the fresh air and the nature. My inner hippie is about to take control srsly. Better to stop here, before I go full flowerpower. Have some pretty pics from my adventures. Bye♥

Review: Innisfree Apple Juicy Cleansing Oil

Heya peeps! Today I'm going to review Innisfrees Apple Juicy Cleansing Oil, which I bought from HonestSkin for $9.52 when they had 30% off from all products. You can check out my haul and shop review here. On to the review!

Description: This deep cleansing oil offers softness and healthy radiance to your skin like a freshly washed apple.

I wish I could return this bottle to Innisfree. Somehow I find this text very cute.
How to use: Apply appropriate amount onto dry hands and gently smooth over dry face to dissolve make up. Add water with fingertips and massage to remove make up. Rinse off with lukewarm water afterwards.

Packaging: It comes in a plastic bottle with a pump dispenser.  It also has a stopper for the pump, so it's very travel friendly as it wont pump itself all around your bag. The design is very simple, nothing extraordinary.

Consistency: The consistency of this is like watery oil. It is very runny and not so thick as one could imagine. It is easy to spread and you really don't need much of it to clean your whole face, one pump is more than enough atleast for me. When you add a little bit of water on it, it transforms in to a milkey white liquid emulsion.

Smell: It smells like fresh green apples with the sourness, which makes the scent even better. It doesn't smell too artifical and it's not too strong. I love it.

My Experience: It cleanses my make up off pretty well. Eyeliner, eyeshadow, brow mascara, BB-cream, make up base and concealer washes off perfectly. Only thing it doesn't clean off too well is my mascara, but it might be my technique and impatience that causes that. I'm planning on getting the eye & lip make up remover from the same line to take off the left over mascara.

One big big plus is that it doesn't sting my eyes at all, just makes my vision a bit blurry if a bigger amount gets into my eye, but it is easy to fix it with going through the lower waterline with a Q-tip. Cleansing my face with this doesn't even require intense rubbing and my fingers just glide on my face. I sometimes like to give myself a small face massage while cleansing my face with this.

This is also very easy to wash off, unlike you one would imagine, as it is oil. It also doesn't leave your face oily or sticky or anything, just smooth and clean.

I just recently went to my fathers for a weekend and forgot to take this with me and it was horrible. Removing my make up with anything else than this sucked so bad. I think I can't live without this anymore and I don't understand how I ever could live without this.

The Summary: I really like this product. It does what it promises and works for me perfectly. As this is my first korean cleansing oil, I'm going to try other cleansing oils, but this is a strong contestant and I'm probably going to return to this after my adventures.

Beauty Haul: Rose Rose Shop

Heyaa ! I made an order on Rose Rose Shop quite a while ago, but didn't have time to post about it and I kind of forgot I even made one and well yeah, it's here now.

Missha Pure Source Sheet Mask in Pearl 
Beyond The God Of Patches Hippopotamus aka Bye Bye to Excess Fat and Seal aka Bye Bye Ugly Neck

My ultimate favorite product from this haul is surely the Ciracle Red Spot Cream. It seriously works, my pimples heals so much faster and the possible scars from a pimples are so unnoticeable! Totally awesome product.

Also my other fave from this haul is one of the samples, A'pieu Pure Block Natural Daily Sun Cream. I was in need for a facial sunscreen and was about to order some samples to test out which would suit my combination skin, which is more on the oily side on the summer. This one worked on me quite well, my skin was as oily as it normally is, maybe even a bit less oily. It didn't irritate, smell bad and the texture is pretty light, not sticky or heavy. I already purchased a full tube of this and have been using this for a few weeks and still happy with it.

I have always been curious about fat reducing cellulite killer miracle products but never actually purchased one before, because they are so expensive. So when I saw Beyonds The God Of Patches Hippopotamus aka Bye Bye to Excess Fat, I just had to buy it. It was only 2.80$ so I couldn't resist. I still haven't tried it, so I could make do a proper review on it. Haven't had my reviewing mood for a while.

So far this haul has contained only one letdown, which is the It's SKIN Baby Face Magic Tint Bar in No.03 Peach. It's not as pigmented as I imagined it would be, the tint is almost nonexistent on me. Atleast it is moisturizing and the packaging is pretty cute.

So yeah. Maybe I will stop rambling and go pack my stuffs, for I'm going to Estonia tomorrow with my wifey♥ Soooo buhbye !

Drifter


Heeeellooo! I have been super duper busy these past weeks. I had my university entrance exam and graduation on the same week and I have been also working, partying and working out like a madman.

 partyface
The university exam didn't go too well, actually it went well for the other half and the other half didn't. But I don't want to cry about it at all, I can and will try again next year. Now I can work and save some money, so I can afford to move out next year.

Atlaaast I graduated! I was so extremely happy that day and I got a scholarship for being the most exemplary student of my class. Yayay.

I had two graduation parties, one on the day I graduated and one on the next weekend at my fathers for the relatives there so they didn't have to come all the way here. We also had a extended family reunion that weekend.

I also have started running/jogging and going to the gym! I'm so proud of myself. I wont spam gym selfies/belfies from now on, don't worry, but I will post about my sports gear at some point because it is fabolous.

wow mop
I also started playing World of Warcraft again. It's like an old friend, who has a bad impact on me, but I still love it. ♥ The wisest words I have ever heard about WoW: WoW is a cancer, quit right now.

So I think thats all for now, byeee ♥

Review: Ing's Essence Mask Pack Arbutin

Heyoo ! Today I'm going to do my first proper sheetmask review. Very exciting. The mask I'm reviewing is Ing's Essence Mask Pack in Arbutin. I bought this from Tester Korea a long while ago and this only cost 500 won (the main reason I bought this lol). Back then didn't find any reviews, so I decided that someday I will review this. So here we are!

Untitled

Description: With fresh and non-sticky feel, the Essential Serum lessens skin sensitivity, protects from harmful enivorments or social stress and gives vitality. Abundant humectants and hysiological additives control rough skin to be smooth and calm. Also various Botanical Extracts with Vitamins soothe the loose or irritated skin from irradiation, prohibit inflammation and so make bright, elastic and even. Without any reverse action, absorbed deep into the skin with good compatibility, sustains the physiological homeostasis.

The package also lists the main ingredients which are: Arbutin, mPanax, Ginseng root extract, Ginkgo extract, Dipotassium glycyrrhizate, Woogon extract, Sodium hyaluronate, Panthenol, Tocopheryl Acetate, Allantoin.

How to use:
After cleansing and washing, apply the maque sheet onto the facial skin evenly and leave for 15 - 20 minutes. Then take off it and pat or massage softly.

Packaging: Well, the packaging design is very old and low-quality looking. The woman creeps me. She looks like the start of 2000. Might be the eyebrows. Otherwise it's just the basic facemask pouch, nothing to see here.

Consistency: I'd say the serum in this is in a scale from watery - medium - thick, in between watery and medium. Yiss. It wasn't sticky at all.

Scent: Actually I'm not sure about the scent, but it was not strong and quite pleasant.

My Experience: As almost always, this didn't fit my face too well and it was too big and the nose part was too small and the eyeholes were too small, so I had to rip them a little to make them fit. I really was going to take a pic of it on my face, but it looked overly stupid, so I decided to skip it haha.

Anyway, it moisturized my face nicely and calmed my skin, which was a little irritated for an unknown reason. My skin was pretty smooth and bright afterwards. Don't know if it was elastic. O.o

The Summary:  The mask fit my face poorly, as sheetmasks always. It did almost everything it claimed and I didn't experience any irritations or break outs. I think this is great for it's price and I'm considering buying a few of the other variations.
