K Beauty Code

It comes with a Mochi cushion that helps to retain most of the foundation when it's pressed on. 

The cushion has SPF 50+/PA+++ along with blueberry extract, mineral water and aloe vera leaf extract. 

Scent

It smells sweet. I think it is due to the blueberry extract. It's fairly nice and it is not over powering.

Coverage

To be honest, the coverage of this cushion is just average. With just one layer, you may not be able to cover scars or redness. You have to apply a second layer to have a better coverage. If you have a very oily skin, layering on foundation is not a great idea as it cakes up. Same goes to dry skin as it will look flaky. But it is definitely better than the 1st generation.

Price

I purchased it for RM100.70 ( BND $33.57) incl GST at KIODA Parkson. It is a little bit pricey as it is only 15g without refill.

Moisture

It is very moisturizing when applied onto my skin. I don't feel it tugging on my skin as I apply but my skin seems to be a little dry when I tried it on so it's a little flaky but that'll be gone after a little exfoliation.

Stickiness

It is not sticky at all. Even after applying 2 layers it is not sticky. It gives off a matte finish.

Changing refills

It is very easy to change it's refill. Open up the case and give the bottom a slight press and it comes right off.

*Do take note that the refill for the older version is not compatible with the mew Magic Snow Cushion 2.0

Claims

1. Flawless Coverage

- Yes, it does gives a very natural finish with great coverage but 2 layers have to be applied to achieve the flawless look if you want to cover dark pigmentation and scars.

2. Moisturizing texture

- Yes, it is very moisturizing. It does not dry up your skin.

3. Smooth application

- Yes, it does not tug on my skin at all. Gently pat with the cushion instead of rubbing on it.

4. It is not sticky!

- Yes, it is not sticky as it dries up pretty fast.

PROS

1. It smells great.

2. Does what it claims.

3. Covers up my pores.

4. It last quite a while and it is very moisturizing.

5. Easy to carry in your purse. 

6. Love the new packaging. Air tight.

7. Suitable for people who are always rushing. Just give it a few pats and you're done. 

CONS

1. I'm pretty concern with the hygiene because of the cushion puff. I think keeping the puff clean is very important to prevent bacteria transfer.

2. It is only 15g which only last up to 2 months with daily usage.

I think that's pretty much it with the CONS. I couldn't find much disadvantage of this cushion. I would like to try more cushion foundation in the future.

Ratings

Price - 4/5 It is affordable during SALES.

Hygiene - 2/5 I personally do not like the idea of patting my face and transferring dust from my face back to the cushion.

Packaging - 4/5 Simple sleek black compact

Claims - 4.5/5 Does what it claims!

Will I repurchase this?

- Yes I will repurchase this cushion but in no.23 as I think no.22 is a little too pink. I would purchase the white and pink version too. To check out the differences.

Tea Tree Face Mask

- Suitable for blemished skin

- Instantly cools and lifts away impurities. 

Descriptions.

This instantly cooling face mask cleanses, soothes and refreshes the skin.

- Helps to remove impurities.

- Absorbs excess oil.

-Soothes skin.

It's ingredients can be seen as above picture. Organic Tea Tree oil from Kenya.

Mask.

- As you can see, the mask comes in a can in a clay form. It appears to be greenish in colour.

Texture.

-The texture of the mask appears to be soft and light yet watery therefore making it easy to apply unlike other mud/clay mask that are hard and difficult to apply. 

- When applied, it does not dry out your face entirely like how usual mud/clay mask. You will not feel any discomfort if you happen to leave the mask on longer than the expected time. 

Smell.

The scent of the mask appears to be minty and fresh of Tea which I find relaxing. Not everyone might find the smell pleasant but the smell does not linger around for long, it disappears after a while. It is still tolerable.

Suitable for:

- Oily Skin

- Acne Prone skin

- Pimples

- Combination Skin

Directions.

- Apply mask after your normal night routine in the direction of Cleansing - Toning - Mask - Wash off - Moisturize. 

- Apply a generous amount onto face and neck by scooping it with a spatula then applying it onto your face with fingertips instead of poking your finger into the jar which might transfers bacterial into your mask which may contaminate the whole can.

- Leave mask on for 10-15 minutes, then wash it off with water, use a cleansing sponge or wet towel to help remove it. 

- Upon first time using it, you might feel a tingling sensation on your skin from the cooling sensation of the mask. 

 If you are super sensitive, please do try on a small area to check for sensitivity. If pain or redness occur on skin, discontinue usage and rinse off immediately. 

- If you do not want to use this mask on your whole face, you can apply a small amount on pimple/acne after applying your moisturizer and leave it on overnight. It helps to reduce the swelling, redness or even dries out an erupting pimple from what I have experienced. 

Comments.

I have tried on this mask for a few months now and I love the cooling sensation when applied. I personally do not recommend the mask if you are looking for a product to treat acne but get the Tea Tree oil which contains a higher concentration which is also available from Body Shop. 

If you are looking for a mask that refreshes your skin, this is the mask to purchase. 

Ratings 8/10.

The product itself did a great job on drying out erupting pimples so its a thumbs up for me. 

Will I purchase it again if I run out of the current one?

Yes only when it's under promotion.
