Loujene Rose Collection Moisturizing Body Butter

Hello my kawaii sistahs!!!!

Say hello to Loujene Rose Collection Moisturizing Body Butter!

This product was included in my last drugstore haul video.  

I got this product from Trial's 100 yen cosmetic corner but I heard that this is also available in hyakuyen shop or 100 yen shop but I haven't seen this in any Daiso stores though.

So obviously, this product costs 100 yen.

Made in China.

I'd been hunting for a nice and cheaper body butter and then I saw this and thought this might work.  You know, sometimes you have to turn your head on some cheaper products because sometimes you can find treasures on them.  Actually I found a lot of good products in Daiso and 100 yen shop. 

 Actually, last December, my sister asked me for a BB cream.  I sent her two BB creams.  One is the Pore Putty and the other one is from Daiso (the one worth 315 each and I haven't blog about it yet but I will soon!) and guess what?!  She likes the one from Daiso better than Pore Putty!!  She was so surprised when I told her that it is way cheaper than Pore Putty.  She said the color suits her tone very well and she didn't even get any breakouts.  She introduced it to her friends and they love it too and asked her if she could ask me to buy some more for them.

Okay enough for that.  We will talk about that in another post.

Let's go back with the Loujene.　　

The Scent:

The scent is a bit too strong for me.  I don't use it when my husband is around.  He doesn't like the scent.  You know the scent of an air freshener for bathrooms??  I think that is how I can explain it.   

The Packaging:

The packaging I might say is not attractive.  At first sight, you will know that it's a cheap product.  Nothing's special.   The only thing that I like is the product was perfectly sealed inside. 

The Texture:

The texture is quite surprising.  It isn't that sticky and greasy.  No! You won't feel any of that.  It only feels like a regular lotion.  

Final thoughts:

I don't think there's something special with this product..  It didn't give that moisturizing effect that I've been looking for  a body butter.

Mixing Palty Hair Bleach in Natural Brown and Hair Color in Macaron Brown

Hello my kawaii sistahs!

Last week, I recolored my hair with again, my favorite brand of course, Palty.

I decided to mix the hair dye and bleach to accentuate the tone of my roots to the tips of my hair.

This time, I tried the macaron brown (hair color) and mixed it with the natural brown (bleach).

I wanted to darken my hair tone just a little bit so I chose those two.

I already explained the details regarding the contents, procedures, etc in my past Palty posts so I will just jump into showing the result. =)

So here are the photos.....

( I want to apologize for the low quality of photos.  I used my phone for taking this pictures but I promise I will update this post with good photos very soon)

Anyway, you can check my latest video to see the actual color of the hair.

More photos:

the color on the top/roots is the color you might get if you have virgin or never been colored hair.

INDOOR:

OUTDOOR:

Final thought:

As expected, the bleach over powered the hair color.

The color result..... 

Although I mix the hair color with the bleach, my roots' color still didn't match with the tips of my hair.

I love the color result in my hair tips though! <3

How should I call it?  hhmmmmm....  Very Asian?  Very Japanese? hahaha!

I think I will rebleach  my hair with sparkling blonde next month and recolor it with darker tone.

I might use macaron brown as well.

Anyway, I will update you, my Paltyholic sistahs with that ,.. hahaha!

Chao!

Review: Tsururi Ghassoul Mineral Clay Pack

Hello my kawaii sistahs!

Here's another product I'd been loving recently.

Say hello to Tsururi Ghassoul Mineral Clay Pack!

A peel-off mask with no mineral oil, alcohol free, and refined from natural Morocco mineral clay.

I think I will stick with this clay pack for a long time. 

This is the product I need for deep cleaning.  My skin feels fresh after I use this.  

According to the description, this peel off mask helps remove dirt, old skin cells, and melanin residues deep from pores.

It also contains black sugar, scrubbing particles, charcoal, hyaluronic acid, honey, royal jelly extract, propolis extract, Argania spinosa seed oil, yogurt extract, and spa water for enhance cleansing performance. 

Men can also use this so you can have bonding time  with your boyfriend/husband while applying this like what me and my husband did last week.  (It was so much fun! hahaha)

My face before applying the product

still wet

when dried, it felt like I am having dried cement all over my face.  I can't move any single muscle haha!

in zoom

after rinsing my face, my skin feels so relaxed and fresh!

If you take a closer look with my before and after face photos, my face looks more fresh and radiant on the second one than the first one.

This product is advisable to use twice a week.

Rinse after 3-5 minutes.

-----------------------------------

Final thought:

After three usage of this product, I have nothing to complain.  I love the deep cleaned, fresh feeling I get after using this.  

A very nice product for 1,200円.

I think I will stick to this for a long period of time.

Make sure to apply moisturizer after using this product.
