Beauty




Hi there little drops of honey blood. (?) wtf.

I don't even know, don't ask xD
so, I haven't been posting much lately, or over a year, which I apologize for. I haven't had the time, honestly. Art just takes it out of ya. well did of me  anyways. so yeah I'm back *le big smile*
and I'll post about anything that I find inspiring etc. anything creative and so on. I will work on the blog, I promise. The way it's looking right now, let's not lie,  it's not the best I can do. I will definitely make it better soon. Maybe I'll even design the whole thing myself, since graphic design I have in my back pocket apparently. so yeah, that's that.

Any questions, requests, ANYTHING just email me on get.your.ulzzang.on@gmail.com
and we can talk.

I do think that this blog will turn out to be more of a make-up/skincare/fashion/creative/travel/south korea type of blogs so if you're up for it, tag along :D

Alright, let me get to work on the blog.
I'll See You Soon :)

[ETUDE HOUSE] LUCIDarling Nails #03 Coral Jewel


(btw. you can totaly tell i stole the image from Thai website that sells Etude stuff. just couldn't find any other ones.)

Hello,

I actually want to review this nail polish, huh.. surprise ;p
em.. what attracted me to it was the actual colour you see on those advety-posters
It's one of these 'Glittering' ones:
I must say, the colour is just soo pretty. Idk, whenever I have it on, I just can't take my eyes off it. Also I always get complements on my nail colour ^_^
I've been using it for about 3 months now.
I does chip without top coat on, sometimes when I forget (read. am too lazy) to put the top coat on, the nail polish will stay around 2-3 days on me. I must add, I do a lot of manual work in art and photography, so I do have a greater possibility of ruining my nails, if that makes sense ;p
anyways, here you have the photos I took :)



As you can see, the name is true to the colour ;p it is a Coral.. litte bit nudish and peachy in my opinion, but I think that's exactly what coral looks like ;p
The 'glittering' part comes in with really fine golden sparkles, it actually lookes more like irredesents due to them being so fine :) however the glitter seems to fade the next day.. maybe it's still there, but you can't really tell it's there.. so.. it kinda is just coral nail polish ;p
just to confirm that my colour was actually no. 3 ;p besides the extra info you might want to see from the bottom on the bottle ^_^.
That's how colour looks like in the day light, excuse my nails xD .. the shape I mean, honestly I don't have time to take care of them properly, since exams are almost here ;p
Anyways I used 3 coates, that's roughly how much you need for the colour to be true to the one you see in the bottle ;p. however you might get away with just 2 :)
This is how the colour looks like in the flash photography. quite nice I think :)

just a couple more ;)
- 1 coat - - 2 coats - - 3 coats
just for your info, so you can see how it presents and actually why i said you will need about 3 coats.
and last closer one :P
Okkkayyy.. :D
Thanks for reading :)
have a great day.
(in the end i would recommend this to anyone really ;p )

Byee-um ;)~~!
GET YOUR ULZZANG's ON!! :D

BB Cream Reviews : L'egere White Multi Blemish Balm (All In One)


White Multi Blemish Balm Cream by L'egere
My first BB Cream and honestly, one of the best from many I have tried out.
It feels like nothing, like you don't have any make-up on. I know some people consider BB Creams as make-up; I personally think it's something between face cream and foundation - just like tinted moisturizer.
However, BB Creams unlike tinted moisturizers are designed to improve skin. Just like this BB Cream. It has whitening abilities, which makes the skin look refreshed. Also, the product melts well with your skin, and honestly after few minutes from putting it on, it looks like nothing too. Don't get me wrong. I don't mean 'looks like nothing' in the way that you still can see all imperfections etc. What I mean is that it does not look unnatural or fake; it simply looks like your second skin.
The coverage is buildable, for me one layer (two on a bad day) is enough. I don't really need anything over it, but I still use powder to set it - just in case.
Thing that can put you off (when first using L'egere's Multi ... BB Cream) is that when you squeeze it from the tube it looks dark, similar to slightly tanned skin tonne, if you know what I mean. After you spread it on your face it immediately gets brighter, so don't worry.
I have been using this BB Cream for over 2 months and I must say it definitely helped my skin. It's moisturizing and made my skin more elastic and 'healthy' looking, not that my skin was unhealthy... the BB Cream just simply improved my skin. This Multi Blemish Balm also has sun protect properties, however I'm not sure how much SPF does it have, since it does not say on the packaging.
This BB Cream also claims to last a long time on your face... and actually it does, to be honest. I have no problems with it staying 'in place' whole day. Obviously, after a long day almost every foundation-type cosmetic product does look worn out, in this case, the product does oxidise a bit, looks darker...but it's not something that worries me.
Furthermore, this BB Cream is great make-up base. I used it as a base few times when I was going out, e.g. school prom. It served well and make-up didn't smudge or 'bleed' all around my face. Additionally, to that 'improved skin' ability, on the packaging is says that this BB Cream is good for skin that was irritated by peeling and laser procedures, which links to the original idea behind all BB Creams.
Lastly, the product costs around 23-30$ (I got mine off eBay, but you can get this off imomoko.com). It's not the cheapest one out in the market, but I think it is worth the price. I will definitely repurchase it once it runs out. For me it's a holy grail in my daily face routine and it is really All In One product, just as it says on the packaging. I recommend this to anyone with rather normal skin type (just like mine), but before you buy it just check other reviews (for e.g. on YouTube, I know for sure that user named fuzkittie has review on this particular BB Cream - this is how I found out about it :P), they maybe more informative than my review. Also maybe other people have comments about how it works with skin types other than normal.
P.S. I will be continuing reviewing different BB Creams. I did this review first because I am using this BB Cream the longest and simply by this I can give a more detailed review on it.
Take care ;)
