CHUNGMIJUNG Aloe Fermentation Cleansing Milk

 

Hi Everyone!

I guess August has been a crazy month. It has been so quick in a week; this month is over. Always amazes me how some months go so quickly and others are pretty slow. The time is always amazing. Today I am with a new review about a cleansing milk, and I must confess, since the first time I used this cleansing milk, I fell in love with the formula because this product is very gentle with my skin. 

I received this product as part of my collaboration with the brand CHUNGMIJUNG. I am not receiving any monetary compensation for this review. All my opinions are based on my own experience with this product.


DEEP CLEANSING & MAKEUP REMOVER: Thoroughly removes makeup, sunscreen, and daily impurities like dust and pollution without stripping your skin’s natural moisture.
HYDRATING ALOE VERA & BOTANICALS: Infused with Aloe Vera to replenish moisture and blended with rice, oat, carrot, and coconut extracts to nourish and soothe dry skin.

Ingredients

PROs and CONs

PROs
- Lightweight
- Moisturizing
- Gentle Cleansing
- Easy Application
- Creamy Milky Texture
- Removes impurities
- Calming

CONs
- Pricey
- In many countries, you can only buy this product online.

Conclusions

My first impression of this cleansing product is that it has a milky, creamy texture and an easy application. It makes a soft and subtle foam. It removes makeup, but not superproof makeup, just waterproof makeup. But this is perfect for a morning cleanser. It is gentle and reduces the redness. This contains rice extract and aloe vera, which are amazing for maintaining moisture. I don´t notice a fragrance in this product, which is good for my sensitive combination skin. 

This cleanser provides a gentle cleansing with a moisturizing after-effect. My skin feels relieved, fresh, and moisturized after using this product. With 200 mL, which is a good quantity. I am very content with the moisturized result, and it is not a strong cleanser. Removes the impurities, reduces redness, and helps to maintain the skin barrier with a pH 5 (acidic pH) that is great for skin health. I would love to try the new products of this brand.

VT COSMETICS Reedle Shot 700 Review

 

Hi Everyone!

I am happy to be here publishing this review. This is my last and third review of this series of "Reedle Shot". This is the VT COSMETICS Reedle Shot 700. And probably my favorite of the three I have tried so far, and this has the same premise. The texture of this one is different to the previous ones.

I received this product as part of my collaboration with the brand and Picky. I am not receiving any monetary compensation for this review. All my opinions are based on my own experience with this product.


Weekly Treatment: Use VT Reedle Shot 700 weekly for noticeable results, compared to the daily use of Reedle Shot 100 or every-three-days use of Reedle Shot 300. It’s perfect for a weekly treatment or targeted care.

Refined Skin Texture: Improves skin texture, reduces acne scars, treats pustules, and minimizes pigmentation and nasolabial folds.


VT COSMETICS Reedle Shot 700

Water, Glycerin, Propanediol, Methylpropanediol, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Butylene Glycol, Pentaerythrityl Tetraethylhexanoate, Cetyl Ethylhexanoate, Glycereth-26, Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea) Butter, Macadamia Ternifolia Seed Oil, Niacinamide, Silica, Polyglyceryl-3 Methylglucose Distearate, Cetearyl Alcohol, Stearic Acid, 1,2-Hexanediol, C12-16 Alcohols, Sodium Acrylate/Sodium Acryloyldimethyl Taurate Copolymer, Polyisobutene, Hydrogenated Lecithin, Palmitic Acid, Arginine, Cetearyl Glucoside, Carbomer, Ethylhexylglycerin, Caprylyl Glycol, Centella Asiatica Extract, Adenosine, Caprylyl/Capryl Glucoside, Sorbitan Oleate, Tocopheryl Acetate, Disodium EDTA, Sodium Hyaluronate, Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer, Glucose, Propolis Extract, Asiaticoside, Hydrolyzed Elastin, Madecassoside, Madecassic Acid, Asiatic Acid, Glycine, Serine, Glutamic Acid, Aspartic Acid, Leucine, Alanine, Lysine, Tyrosin, Phenylalanine, Threonine, Proline, Valine, Isoleucine, Ceramide NP, Histidine, Methionine, Cysteine, Glycosphingolipids




After Application 

PROs and CONs

PROs
- Creamy
- Moisturizing
- Soft Exfoliation
- Easy Application
- Nice packaging

CONs
- Not suitable for sensitive skin.
- In many countries, you can only buy this product online.


Conclusions

When I tried this for the first time, I noticed two things. Once the list of ingredients is slightly different between this and the other versions, and second, the texture is better in this one. This product contains less quantity of the previous ones because this contains only 30mL, but I need to remember that this product is a weekly shot is recommended by the brand to be used just once per week, which is fine because this contains a lot of microneedling in comparison with the other two. 

I just noticed a little tingling sensation with this one. Of course, I avoided sensitive areas, but I didn´t notice any rash or redness, which happened with the VT COSMETICS Reedle Shot 300. I love how creamy this is, and after using it, my skin looks luminous, and the texture looks better. If you have sensitive skin or you are allergic to one ingredient, please avoid this one. I used a small quantity for my full face. I feel my skin moisturized and the texture feels creamy and gentle,

VT COSMETICS Reedle Shot 300 Review

 
Hi Everyone!

I am back with a review about a product that is very similar to my previous review, the VT COSMETICS Reedle Shot 100. However, this is the VT COSMETICS Reedle Shot 300, which is a stronger version of that one. It is labeled as a serum. You can use this product once every three days. It contains more microneedles (spicles) that help improve dead cells and rough skin.

I received this product as part of my collaboration with the brand and Picky. I am not receiving any monetary compensation for this review. All my opinions are based in my own experience with this product.


Intensify & Reduce Usage: Unlike Reedle Shot 100, which is recommended for daily use. Reedle Shot 300 is also effective as spot treatments, can be used every 3 days to achieve noticeable results.

Smoothens and Refines Skin Texture: Helps achieve a more even and refined skin complexion, diminishing acne scars, treating pustules, and reducing pigmentation and nasolabial folds.

Ingredients

Water, Dipropylene Glycol, Glycerin, Niacinamide, Butylene Glycol, Macadamia Ternifolia Seed Oil, 1,2-Hexanediol, Ethylhexyl Palmitate, Silica, Sodium Acrylate/Sodium Acryloyldimethyl Taurate Copolymer, Polyisobutene, Glycereth-26, Ethylhexylglycerin, Caprylyl Glycol, Adenosine, Sodium Polyacrylate, Centella Asiatica Extract, Sodium Hyaluronate, Caprylyl/Capryl Glucoside, Sorbitan Oleate, Xanthan Gum, Propolis Extract, Asiaticoside, Madecassoside, Madecassic Acid, Asiatic Acid, Glycine, Serine, Glutamic Acid, Aspartic Acid, Leucine, Alanine, Lysine, Arginine, Tyrosine, Phenylalanine, Threonine, Proline, Valine, Isoleucine, Histidine, Methionine, Cysteine

PROs and CONs

PROs
- Easy Application
- Lightweight
- Moisturizing
- Exfoliating
- Removes dead cells

CONs
- Tingling feeling
- Not suitable for sensitive skin
- In many countries, you can only purchase this product online

Conclusions

This product is a little different from the VT COSMETICS Reedle Shot 100 for two things: the texture is a little denser, and second, I can feel the tingling sensation with this one. I don´t recommend this product for sensitive skin because it caused me a little redness after the application. Of course, this was transient. I recommend If you have sensitive skin or acne-prone skin, be careful with this product and use a small quantity for your face.

I noticed that this product provides a luminous and moisturizing effect, which is good. This tingled me a little, and I am not a fan of that feeling. This product contains propolis, and I am not a fan of that ingredient because my skin is sensitive to that. But contains Hyaluronic acid and Cica, which are good moisturizers. This was a good product, but I am not going to repurchase this one. I have sensitive combination skin, and I can probably use this product once per week, and a small quantity.

VT COSMETICS Reedle Shot 100 Review

 

Hi Everyone!

I can´t believe how fast this year is going, so I decided today, after several days, today share my review about a product I received a few days ago, and it is not the only one I am going to publish about this brand. The VT COSMETICS Reedle Shot 100is a serum that contains Centella asiatica + Hyaluronic and needles(?) Well, these are spicules that are from marine sponges. These spicules help to exfoliate the superficial skin layer and help improve the skin texture.

I received this product as part of my collaboration with the brand and Picky. I am not receiving any monetary compensation for this review. All my opinions are based in my own experience with this product.


Step Zero to Glass Skin: Start your skincare routine with Reedle Shot as the "Zero Step". It gently removes impurities and supports your skin’s natural renewal process, revealing a clearer, glass-like complexion without residue.

Korean Glass Skin: Supports the skin’s natural renewal process, promoting the gentle release of accumulated impurities over time with no remnants left behind.

For All Skin Types: Designed for a delicate balance, suitable for all skin types, including sensitive and acne-prone skin.


INGREDIENTS

Water, Dipropylene Glycol, Glycerin, Niacinamide, Butylene Glycol, Macadamia Ternifolia Seed Oil, 1,2-Hexanediol, Ethylhexyl Palmitate, Sodium Acrylate/Sodium Acryloyldimethyl Taurate Copolymer, Polyisobutene, Silica, Glycereth-26, Ethylhexylglycerin, Caprylyl Glycol, Adenosine, Sodium Polyacrylate, Sodium Hyaluronate, Centella Asiatica Extract, Caprylyl/Capryl Glucoside, Sorbitan Oleate, Xanthan Gum, Propolis Extract, Asiaticoside, Madecassoside, Madecassic Acid, Asiatic Acid, Glycine, Serine, Glutamic Acid, Aspartic Acid, Leucine, Alanine, Lysine, Arginine, Tyrosine, Phenylalanine, Threonine, Proline, Valine, Isoleucine, Histidine, Methionine, Cysteine


Texture

Moisturizing Effect

PROs and CONs

PROs
- Easy Application
- Lightweight
- Fragrance-Free
- Moisturizing
- provides gentle exfoliation

CONs
- In many countries, you can only buy this product online.

Conclusions

I have a little time using this product, and I must confess I don´t feel a huge difference in the first few days. Still, I must admit that I noticed after several days of using this product that if you have sensitive skin, you don´t need to use this product daily, even if the product says it can be used for all skin types. I don´t think this can be used daily because it can be a little harsh. 

This product contains Hyaluronic Acid, Cica, and Amino Acid Complex that helps to improve the skin barrier. I like the lightweight texture, and I don´t feel any tingling sensation. But this provides a good moisturizing effect, and it is absorbed very quickly. This is a good serum, but I am not a fan and probably I am not going to repurchase this one.

COSRX Advanced Snail Mucin Glass Glow Hydrogel Mask Review


 Hi Everyone!

I want to share probably one of my favorite products of this year, and it is not usual because I am not a fan of masks, and specifically the gel masks. The reason behind t¿is that I don´t feel comfortable with the slimy feeling. That some hydrogel mask tends to fall out of my skin and is annoying, but this mask is different. I received this mask with the cream and toner, and I feel this mask doesn´t fall out of my skin like other hydrogel masks do.


Formulated with 25% Snail Secretion, this mask turns transparent as it deeply moisturizes, enhances radiance, soothes sensitive skin, and softens texture—delivering instant benefits you can see and feel.



INGREDIENTS

Aqua/Water, Snail Secretion Filtrate, Glycerin, Acrylates Copolymer, Niacinamide, 1,2-Hexanediol, Ceratonia Siliqua (Carob) Gum, Chondrus Crispus, Butylene Glycol, Betaine, Potassium Chloride, Agar, Erythritol, Sclerotium Gum, Sucrose, Cellulose Gum, Allantoin, Polyglyceryl-10 Laurate, Panthenol, Ethylhexylglycerin, Adenosine, Sodium Phytate, Hydrogenated Lecithin, Cetearyl Alcohol, Stearic Acid, Pentylene Glycol, Hydrolyzed Collagen, Gluconolactone, Ceramide NP, Sodium Hyaluronate, Tocopherol, Sodium Hyaluronate Crosspolymer, Hydrolyzed Hyaluronic Acid, Ceramide NS, Cholesterol, Phytosphingosine, Hyaluronic Acid, Ceramide AP, Ceramide AS, Hydrolyzed Sodium Hyaluronate, Ceramide EOP

This is how the mask looks


After 3 hours on my skin

Before and After

PROs & CONs

PROs
- Easy to use
- Moisturizing
- Calming
- Refreshing
- Luminous effect

CONs
- In many countries, you can only buy this product online. 

Conclusions

This mask contains ceramides, snail secretion filtrate, and hyaluronic acid among their principal ingredients, so it is an amazing option to help hydrate the skin and which is notorious after the application, and I know very well that the effect of mast is not long lasting has most of topical products but the effect is prettty and the skin feel pumping and moisturized after the application. My skin feels calmed and hydrated, and of course, this is the best combination.

This is a great option if you are looking for a glowy and moisturizing effect. This is the right mask, and the effect lasts for several hours, which is great. By the way, this mask has become pretty popular after some celebrities have used it and discovered how good and moisturizing is. 

RATING
★★★★★

Fourth Wing by Rebecca Yarros (The Empyrean #1)

 

“Hope is a fickle, dangerous thing. It steals your focus and aims it toward the possibilities instead of keeping it where it belongs—on the probabilities.”

― Rebecca Yarros, Fourth Wing

Hi Everyone!

Today, I want to start this new month with a review of one of my favorite books recently. I read this book for the first time in January, and I must confess I loved it, and I definitely re-read a month or just a couple of months ago, and I decided to share my review, and I received this book as a gift too . Because the first time I read was on my e-reader app.  I read a lot of positive stuff online about this book, but I read a ton of bad reviews. And I need to say this book is just a Fantasy book and has human relationships in there, which is good with all the magic and power dynamics. 



Enter the brutal and elite world of a war college for dragon riders.

Twenty-year-old Violet Sorrengail was supposed to enter the Scribe Quadrant, living a quiet life among books and history. Now the commanding general—also known as her tough-as-talons mother—has ordered Violet to join the hundreds of candidates striving to become the elite of Navarre: dragon riders.

But when you’re smaller than everyone else and your body is brittle, death is only a heartbeat away...because dragons don’t bond to “fragile” humans; they incinerate them. With fewer dragons willing to bond than cadets, most would kill Violet to better their chances of success. The rest would kill her just for being her mother’s daughter—like Xaden Riorson, the most powerful and ruthless wingleader in the Riders Quadrant. She’ll need every edge her wits can give her just to see the next sunrise.

Yet with every day that passes, the war outside grows deadlier; the kingdom's protective wards are failing; and the death toll continues to rise. Even worse, Violet begins to suspect leadership is hiding a terrible secret.



 Review "No Spoilers"

This book contains friendship, knowledge, and how it affects history, how well we can preserve the real facts or the history is fundamental in the development of the real history and that the magic needs balance and we need to be careful because too much is not always the best. There is a romance between some characters, and I must confess that is funny and relaxed this relationship and there are Dragons and magic and a lot of action scenes.

I guess what makes this book is that two major events are happening at the same time. One is the journey of the main character, and the other one we are going to discover with her. I enjoyed this one so much and cried a lot to the end. The dragons are wonderful, and I feel this book is very incredible.
