Review : Secret Key Snow White Milky Lotion

Back to give you another K- beauty product review!

Here is my current obsession Secret Key Snow White Milky Lotion! Just so you know I live in Indonesia, a tropical country with a super huge dose of sunlight and my occupation requires me to be out in the sunlight about 8-10 hours a week and tadaaaa then  I'm currently the one who have problems with uneven skin tone, especially the back of my hands :( it just so different with the rest of my skin although girls I swear I wear sunblock basically every single days:( but still cant help the fact that it really needs a long time to get my skin back as usual.

You gotta admit that sometimes my hand skin color look very different from my face and I'm super sad about it. Especially when sometimes I need to go to special occasion and putting some make-up on. And gladly I found this super good products that allows me to get an even yet bright skin. It has an instant brightening effect that make you wonders how this product can cover an uneven skin tone that fast. Sort of a magic maybe ;) ahaha but no magic ofc

This product actually my first product from Secret Key and I have to admit that it quite pricey for a lotion. I bought this for IDR 120K on Shopee. You can just search at any K-beauty seller I'm sure they got it as this product is quite popular.

Secret Key has 2 variant of this Snow White series, Milky Pack and Milky Lotion. The difference is that the pack one you need to wait for abut 10 minutes after applying then you need to rinse it of with water, and for the lotion one you can just apply it anytime without a need to rinse it. But I haven't tried the milky pack yet. I prefer lotion because it simpler for me as It doesnt require me to rinse it off.

Above is the campaign paper from Secret Key about this product. As you can see the advantage of this product is that...

1. Instant brightening effect

2. You dont need to rinse it off

3. Can be used from face to body

But to be honest I have never applied it to my face because I have this feeling that my face is quite sensitive so I have to be mindful about applying anything to my face. But if you girls are feeling like to apply it to you face you gotta try it but first make sure that don't apply too much for the first time applying.

It doesn't come with the pouch haha I bought it separately but still from the same store. It was cute enough for me to press order on it :D

About the product but I don't really understand as it written in hangul. :D

Actually in my opinion, this product is a little dry. So I advise you to put some good moisturizer before to achieve a smooth yet brighter skin :)

Here is my before hand's skin after applying some moisturizer

And tadaaaaaa here is the result. A brighter and smooth skin is yours. The effect is good enough for me but still I'm in search for a permanent skin brightener as this product only last for about 8-10 hours with no harsh water exposure.

Pros :

- An instant brightening effect

-Last for months although for a everyday use

-Last for 8-10 hours after applying with no harsh water exposure

-Easy to find in any K-beauty online store

Cons :

- Relatively expensive for a lotion product IDR 120-135K

-A natural result can be achieved only if you put some good moisturizer before (if you dont apply moisturizer it look quite powdery on your skin)

Rate :

7/10

but I'm in search for another lotion product that can permanently bring my skin tone back to normal and maybe a more natural result as this product need moisturizer to achieve a natural look. You girls can recommend me any products you feel like will suit me. Thanks before!

Review & Swatches : Wardah Everyday BB Cream & Purifying Moisturizer Gel

Nowadays, I've been searching for a not-to-heavy BB Cream. Because for my everyday use I prefer a light and not-to-cakey make up as I prefer more of a natural look. I only use foundation for a special occasion that requires me to wear a full make up. For a daily basis my make up mostly a natural look with pink or mauve lip color and a slight hint of pink or peach blush. Next time I'll do a complet review of my everyday make-up :)

Now, I'll do a review for a local Indonesia cosmetic line which a well known product for muslimah. 

1. Wardah Everyday BB Cream

This product is good enough for me as I love its light and natural coverage. The plus point is that this product claims to has a sun protector characteristic SPF 30, which is I think quite enough for me as I worked mostly indoor. It is easy to blend and you can see the color swatches below which I took the photos only by indoor light at noon.

Its relatively cheap, only for about IDR 45-50 K and girls It last months for me although I use it every single day. I loved this product and my skin doesn't have any problem with it. It has two shades "light" and "natural", mine is the natural shade.

This product also claims that is perfume free and also paraben free which is good because it less harmful, then.

Pros :

- Relatively cheap only for IDR 40- 50K

- I love the tube packaging

- Light coverage and perfect for a natural everyday look

-Last for months although for a everyday use

Cons :

- currently I have no cons towards this product :)

Rate :

9/10

1. Wardah Purifying Moisturizer Gel

For an instant moist skin, moisturizer is a must. Although I have a more of a oily skin type, there's always a case when you feel your skin is a lil bit dry and in needs for a soothing moisturizer. I can recommend you this product. Its relatively cheap, last for months and in a tube packaging which is more hygienic. Below I added the swatches for this product, the left one and the right one is the BB Cream. I also have no provlem with the smell.

Pros :

- Relatively cheap only for IDR 20- 30K

- I love the tube packaging

-Last for months although for a everyday use

Cons :

- currently I have no cons towards this product :) 

but currently I prefer Nature Republic Aloe Vera Gel for my moisturizer :D

I'll do a review for it soon. Just you wait:)

Review : Laneige Mini Lip Sleeping Mask

Super excited to deliver a new review I dedicate to you all beauty lover! 

Here today I'll tell you about my current obsession, its the super well-known 

Laneige Mini Lip Sleeping Mask !

this product is a real help to those who's always having chapped lip problems like me. Just so you know, my lip has the tendency to be dry even though my skin type is more of normal to oily type. Trust me it confuse me to at most of the times. So I have to use lip moisturizer for every single days or yes maybe every single time, before I wear another lip product like lip tint, lip stain, lipstick, or lip cream, you name it. 

When I was a teenager, maybe when I'm in JHS I started using lip balm to fix my chapped lip problem and to maintain my lip's moisture. The very first product I'm using was LIPICE, this product is good enough for me, but then I began to realize, after 3-4 hours this product has no effect and my lips is chapped again, and LIPICE left a pink stain in my chapped lips and it is a big no for me.

I began to search for another product, and I met Maybelline!

I have used a variety of Maybelline lip balm, and I have to admit that I'm in love with all. Maybelline delivers a great formula for my lips and I've repurchased it tons of times :) I'll upload a pic of my Maybelline's lipbalm soon.

Similiar colour!

I've tried Cherry Me, Peach Kiss, Pink Punch and Quenched! All super good!

Candy Wow is a fav but despite it longer physical I actually finished it at the similar time as the smaller balm.

Skip Skip

Here back to the topic, currently I more of a tint and lip matte person but still I don't ever leave my lip moisturizer. 

This Laneige Mini Lip Sleeping Mask  is a very good product as it has an incredible ability to moisturize lips. Leave it all night and you'll get what you want. A moist lip with a slight pink color. 

It actually have a few variant but sorry to say I've only found the pink one. What I like from the mini series is its small and easy to fit in my my make up pouch so I can just bring it anywhere. 

But the downside form the mini series is that you won't get the spatula that come with the regular series.


But its okay, you can use any buds or directly by using your clean hands.

As you can see, the sleeping mask is in a soft pink color and believe me it smells good so you dont have to worry anything about the smell.

Pros :

- Relatively cheap only for IDR 40K

- Small and cute packaging to fit in any make up pouch

- Nice effect (moist lips) after a routine use

- Good smell

Cons :

- It doesn't come with spatula

Rate :

8/10

The conclusion is I love this product and I will repurchase it anytime soon! Yay!
