Freeman Feeling Beautiful Anti-Stress Dead Sea Minerals Facial Mask - Review

"Dead Sea Minerals and Sea Salts help replenish and balance moisture while purging clogged pores. Lavender and Bergamot help achieve an aroma-therapeutic bliss to rinse away stress for smooth and radiant skin. Perfect for all skin types."

Today I'm doing a review on another Freeman mask as promised. This mask comes in a squeeze tube as most of the other Freeman masks do usually. It has an ocean blue colour and has a pleasant smell. The texture is creamy and a little of this stuff goes a long way, as in spreads easily. I cleanse my skin, pat it dry, but leave it a little damp, because I find that this mask doesn't spread easily on completely dry skin, but on wet skin, it sort of slides off. So damp skin it is. A little amount of this stuff spreads easily onto the whole face. It dries after 10-15 minutes, but it also depends on the amount applied. If a thicker layer is applied takes longer compared to a thinner layer.

It feels cooling and refreshing while it is on the skin. After I wash it off, I find this mask to calm the redness on my skin. It also can dry breakouts faster when I use this. The smell is very nice and it's not overwhelming. I really like this mask and find my self using it quite often compared to other mask I own. I specially love the ocean blue colour it has. It's more fun than the usual white colour masks typically are.

Have you tried any of the Freeman face masks? What are your thoughts on it?

Freeman Feeling Beautiful Cucumber Facial Peel-Off Mask - Review

So, I decided, instead of doing just one long post on these four masks, I would do one for each separately which makes it shorter and maybe more fun to read when just talking about one product at a time. So in this post, I am going to review the Cucumber Peel-Off mask.

This come in a green squeeze bottle packaging, the product itself has no colour, it's like a clear gooey thick consistency. It smells like fresh cucumbers, no chemical smell to it which is nice. It applies easily and evenly on the face and takes about 20 minutes to dry completely. I peel this off from my chin area in an upward motion to prevent sagging of skin. I would also suggest to avoid getting this mask on eyebrows or hair line, because it will feel painful when trying to peel it off. It leaves the skin a cooling sensation, smooth and hydrated feeling. I still washed my face with warm water to remove any left over excess.

I overall think that this is a nice, refreshing mask, but I didn't see any drastic results from it. It's nice to have and use once in a while but I might not repurchase it again. The bottle is pretty big, so it'll last a while but when it's finished, I would probably like to try a different peel-off mask. Till then, I'll use this.

I will do review on the other masks on the picture shown soon!

Loreal Magic Top Coats - Review & Swatches



Hello lovelies. Today I am talking about these fun Loreal top coats. I know they're not new but I have had a while to use them and can finalize my opinions on them finally. These as the name suggests, are meant to be as topcoats, so basically to be used on top of other nail polishes. I'll be honest, I have used them on their own as well. There's no "rule" really. So these each have different effects. When used as top coats, it changes the look of the nail polish. It also can look different if used on lighter polish or darker. When using these, I would prefer using a creme finish nail polish instead of shimmer obviously, since the top coats are doing the sparkle job so why use shimmery nail polish and apply a gold glitter on top? haha. Of course, anyone can do what they please, that's just how I prefer to do mine.

The True Gold is small sized gold glitter and it applies evenly and feels smooth after it's dry.
The True Diamond is super fine, pearly shimmer. It applies evenly and sparkles like diamonds.
The Sparklicious is larger differently shaped glitter in black and silver holographic. This one, I had to work with it a bit and almost place the glitter where I wanted.
The Shift Me actually changed the colour of the nail polish. In this case, it changed my dark red nail color to a lighter pink and gives it a thin frosted blue shimmer effect.

These top coats each give a very pretty and fun look to the same nail polish. So you can get a different effect with these and have fun with it. My favourite would have to be The True Diamond and The Shift Me. I've used those two the most as top coats on top of other polishes as well as alone like a normal polish.

Have you tried any of these yet? which one is your favourite?

BH Cosmetics Wild & Free Baked Eyeshadow Palette - Review & Swatches




   
I placed an order with BH cosmetics a while back and also had a coupon for a free palette. My package came and this was the free palette I got. Looked at the palette once and I was super excited. Most of the eye palettes I have and reviewed, you might see a pattern and that is colour. I love me some fun eyeshadows. So I was happy with this random free palette. 

I have only one other Colorful palette from BH, so it was nice to try a different one. These baked eyeshadows are all shimmery, which to be honest, I'm more a fan of shimmer than matte so yay for that haha. As you can see, the swatches are true to the color in the pan, They feel smooth and very pigmented. They blend easily and I haven't had any issues with fall outs so far. This palette is very fun and playful. It probably wont be an everyday go to easy palette for a lot of people. I wouldn't go for this if I wanted a neutral eye look obviously. But if I wanted something fun and different I would definitely grab this. Also, since all the shades are shimmery, I would say this is not a one palette type of look either. In my opinion, I would bring in a few different matte shades for blending and stuff. The staying power with these shadows are decent. With a good eyeshadow primer, these last much longer for me.

Overall, this is a fun, exciting palette and I am totally happy with it. It was my first time I had a code for a free palette so that was also very nice. I'm happy with the overall quality and I hope you enjoyed this review as well.

Have you tried any palettes from BH cosmetics? What are your thoughts on it?

John Frieda Frizz-Ease Miraculous Recovery Crème Serum - Review


Happy Thanksgiving to all Canadians out there. I had an amazing long weekend and I hope you did too!! Now back to business haha

Today I'm doing a review on this Miraculous Recovery Crème Serum by John Frieda Frizz-Ease. As much as I am into makeup, skincare and beauty in general, I don't really buy or try out a bunch of different hair products. My guess is that is because I don't have much issues with my hair. I think it manages to look how I want it without hair products really. The only "issue" I could think of is my hair can get frizzy when humid. Now where I live, it does get humid in the summer sometimes, when it's overcast or rainy or whatever. Those days I don't even mess with my hair, I just throw it up in a ponytail or bun or something, so it's out of my face and I don't notice the frizz. That's for when I have long hair. but short hair, no ponytail or bun is doable. So that's when this product comes in. 

This product claims on the packaging to: 
-Transform dry frizzy hair to silky smooth
-Tame frizz
-Repair damage and split ends. 
*Can be used on wet or dry hair, formulated for medium-thick, wavy-curly hair, all levels of frizz*

The creme serum is like a creamy milky texture, smells really nice, a little goes a long way since I have shorter hair now. I apply after shower on damp hair from about my ears down. It does make my hair smooth and somewhat controls the frizz. I don't have frizzy hair everyday, as I said it gets that way when it is really humid. On the days that are not humid, this product works great and smooths my hair which is great. On the really humid day which my hair is like a frizzy mess, this didn't really tame anything for me. Now maybe it's just my hair that this product doesn't work for that much? because I have heard some people that like this product and works for them perfectly. I don't know. I will keep using it and finish it of course. Since it works when the humidity is lower. I'm not sure if I'll repurchase it again. I might want to try something else.

What is your favourite hair product for frizzy hair? post your comments down below. I will be more that happy to read them

Lots of love,
Dina
