Makeup Review: FACEit Power Perfection BB Cream

Hi guys!

I'm back with a brand new review video for you makeup lovers out there. I'm reviewing a BB cream I bought from the korean makeup shop: The Face Shop and I absolutely love this BB cream!

FACEit
Power Perfection BB Cream
SPF37/PA++
02 Natural Beige
(around $38.00USD)





Claims to improve skin problems, including bagginess, roughness and dryness.
Reenergizes the skin through power lifting, power moisturizing and power correction effects. Wrinkle improvement, whitening, sunscreen. Contains omega -3 and the Vita-skin complex.

Why I bought it:
I was looking for a BB cream that doesn't dry out my skin but at the same time not feel like it's suffocating it. I wanted the right amount of moisture and coverage from the BB cream.

The Product:
This BB cream comes in two shades: 01 (Light Beige) and 02 (Natural Beige). I bought mine in Natural Beige. 

Here's my video review (don't forget to like & subscribe!)



The Verdict:
I feel like this BB cream holds true to what it claims to do to your skin. Upon application, It already starts to hide my imperfections (fine lines, blemishes, uneven skin tone). There's no unpleasant smell either. It's pretty thick and a little really really does go a long way. My skin doesn't feel oily but neither does it dry out. It actually gives my skin that healthy dewy look. I also have dry patches on my face and it doesn't aggravate it at all. 

Price:✦✦✦✧✧ (It's a bit pricey, but that's to be expected from a good asian BB cream)

Coverage:✦✦✦✦✦ (I gave it a perfect score because it does cover VERY well. )

Application:✦✦✦✦✦ (Easy application)

Fragrance:✦✦✦✦✧ (Non-fragrant but still has that "makeup smell" to it. Very tolerable)

村上春樹


I finally got to meet Murakami Haruki one on one! I knew he had a home here in Hawaii and recently discovered he had an office at my university as well. I had no idea it was in the building I frequent the most!

f(x) Amber's 피노키오 (Danger) MV makeup tutorial

Hey ya'll! I'm back with another video (damn I'm on a roll!)
This time it's my FIRST makeup tutorial! It's a quick one actually, inspired by one of my favorite idols in k-pop. Have you guessed it yet? It's Amber of f(x)! And since I still have my blonde hair, I figured I should give it a go. Just in time for Halloween too haha.


I absolutely adore her makeup in the Pinocchio (Danger) MV, it's definitely my kind of style. Anyway, I hope you enjoy the video :) The only thing I'm upset about is that the most important part in the video, the eyeliner part, is missing because I wasn't aware my camera shut off! BOO. Well, I hope you enjoy anyway! And please, enjoy my no make-up face as well! hahaha~

p.s. I'm not really good at makeup, I just do whatever I feel like looks good to me lol.

If I were a boy. (pic heavy)

This past week has been a rather boyish one for me. Come to think of it, I was actually always comfortable with being and acting like a tomboy since I was little (thanks to growing up with my brother who I have always seen as a role model and the countless of anime and video games where I wished to be the male leads). Don't get me wrong, I love the girly style too and well, I am definitely a girl, but I do honestly feel that with my weird-ass personality, boyish fits in well with me.

I was always envious of the girls with slender arms and legs with feminine hands (*cough cough, like Monica*) and even though I'm short in height, I lack in slender features. T_____T

Well, I've been told I'd make a pretty boy. There was also one time in Japan when I wasn't even intentionally dressing up boyish, another Japanese male called me an ikemen. It's good to know I'd at least make an attractive boy. :3
