Olival Peeling Toner AHA PHA
Mix of gentle AHA and PHA acids as well as glycerin, panthenol and hyaluronic acid that does just enough good job of removing dead skin cells, yet doesn't irritate the skin and leaves it hydrated. I like it for this colder season. This is the one acid toner that I always recommend to anyone who hasn't tried acids before, because it's just so gentle, yet effective. The bottle also lasts me quite a while and there is no added scent.
Tocobo Cica Calming Sun Serum SPF50+ PA++++
You know I love anything with Cica. This also has hyaluronic acid and aloe vera extract. It's very light formula, they call it serum. It's definitely watery to the touch and very easy to spread with chemical filters. It leaves sort of a velvet finish that still has some hydrating grip to it. There is also a light sweet herbal scent to it. I really like it so far, but then again I rarely don't like Asian SPFs, especially for colder months.
Paese Long Cover Fluid - 1.75 Sand Beige
I've brought this foundation back out as soon as my skin got a bit drier. It's one of those that looks thicker, yet it has lighter coverage and nicely hydrating formula that doesn't emphasize my dry patches and doesn't look matte. It's more of natural finish and I feel like it does a good job of providing additional hydration through the day. Shade is also a perfect match for my winter complexion. I only dislike the spatula like applicator, because you have to pout it out. Pump would be much nicer.
Catrice Soft Blur Matte Setting Powder - 001 Translucent
This is one of the newest powders from Catrice. It has that mesh system that lets you swirl your brush in it to deposit the product evenly and not spill it out. It's a bit inconvenient when you want to apply the powder with a powder puff. You either have to pour it out on your hand or tap the puff into the mesh. I've gotten my mesh a bit dirty this way, because I don't clean puff between every use. However the powder itself is super fine and it does a great job of setting the makeup and blurring out pores. It's not too mattifying and won't keep you matte through day, but it's a great setting powder. I really like it and it's affordable.
Essence Satin Blend Gel Eyeliner - 05 Rich Burgundy
It's one of those softer pencil formulas that is very easy to break and I have broken it a couple of times already. However, the formula glides on with no tugging and it's also easy to smudge. But once it sets it actually stays in place really well. If you have extremely oily lids, I would still use a primer. Rich Burgundy is the best redish shade that still looks wearable and isn't too brown nor too red. It's the perfect mix of brick red and brown. This would look amazing on green, blue or brown eyes. Hoestly every color would benefit from it.
