There are, however, some who even question the effectiveness of slathering exotic ingredients on your faces and whether it would have a noticeable, if any effect on your skin. The popularity of these exotic ingredients started in South Korea and soon moved across the sea to Japan, where women have the image that Korean cosmetics are of good quality, in addition to being cheap, which has allowed Japanese women, who would tend to be grossed out by the idea of putting snake venom on their faces, to more easily accept these weird ingredients. (The horse is not as popular as the snail, according to the firm’s representatives). If you have no qualms, you can even lather your face with a horse oil mask, which, although smells slightly leathery, leaves your skin feeling as silky as a horse’s mane. Their Essence Mask series features types as tame as lemon, rose, and pomegranate, but if you want something a bit more “wild” you can try their biodiversity series, which includes snake venom, snail slime, and sea cucumber. Pure Smile makes facial masks in every flavor imaginable-and some that are unimaginable. They’re known best for their cosmetics line, Pure Smile. Their biggest seller is the essence of pearl mask but it’s the other “natural” items that raise eyebrows (and lift lines). They produced over 100,000,000 masks since they went into business. In 2009 they made 3 billion 997 million yen and in 2014 they posted sales of 8 billion 673 million yen. The company, which sells everything from cosmetics to bags, has seen their sales rise in the last 6 years. This is my third repurchase.Headquartered in central Tokyo’s glitzy Roppongi district, Sun Smile was founded in 1997. I just keep coming back to this because it works wonders for hydrating and healing my skin nightly. You may have seen some night creams I have bought so far, but none so far have done favours for my skin like this one does. I'm really liking this when I pair it with the Anthelios, it even smells like lemonade! This brand is new to Priceline and I was immediately drawn to their gorgeous packaging and natural ingredient claims. This looked so pretty compared to the other ones Daiso had stocked. I wanted to try out the famed Hydraluron, but as I already have so many moisturising products the Retinol Reface just appealed to me more.ĭaiso "Mino-Washi paper" blotting paper pack These are the bomb! I fell in love after trying them a few times and they're currently on special at Priceline for a limited time. Skin Vitals 15 minute treatment sheet masks in C-Brighten, Q-Lift and T-Purify This was a promotional gift and so far it's okay. Lanolips Intense Hydration & Protection Hand Balm for very dry hands & nails with Rose Oil The sun is finally peeking through so that calls for some heavy duty sunscreen here Down Under. La Roche Posay Anthelios 50+ Extreme Fluid The two brands have very similar concepts but as the price differences are only a few dollars, with Dirty Works being the cheaper of the two, I thought I would try these out before actually getting something from S&G. When I first saw Dirty Works at Target I immediately thought - Soap & Glory dupe. I actually have no idea what the proper name is as it's in Korean, but there are pictures on the back and the checkout lady said leave it on for 15-20 minutes for soft hydrated lips.ĭirty Works Pore-fect Facial Hot Cloth Cleanser The popular drugstore brand Innisfree was being sold right next to some Cle De Peau products.Ĭhoosy/Pure Smile Lip and Nipple Sheet Mask in Gold Pearl Although some were from this great Asian beauty store on Swanston St which confused me on whether it was drugstore or not. Today's haul consists of what I consider 'drugstore' haul that has accumulated over a few months. Instead of doing a collective haul (I couldn't fit all the products in one frame without them being tiny) I decided to separate all the products and y'know, talk about them. I'm still going too so I really should put a spending ban on.after the holiday sales. If you haven't read my third Iherb haul yet, I mentioned being slightly concerned over how much I was spending lately.
