REVIEW: BRTC Perfect BB Toner! [ SPONSORED ]


Hello my lovies. So, some big news! I made another big move. This time, I'm staying with
my parents until Honey is able to get himself a better paying job. I think it'll be nice [ I'm already having ideas of how I'll decorate the room xD ]! It's been a bit overwhelming, but it's going to be worth it in the end.
Today, I'll be reviewing another sponsored product sent to me by Momomango! This is BRTC's Perfect BB Toner!

This multi-purpose essence/toner is said to:
1. Help with Oil Control.
2. Tighten Pores.
3. Whiten Complexion.
4. Moisturize.


All the information in Korean. The top little box states this is "Dermatologist Test Completed" which does make me feel safe about using this product.

[ DESCRIPTION ]


Essence combined with multi-function toner.

Perfect BB Toner
Skin balance control, whitening, pore tightening, moisture and soothing care that helps create a luxurious and smooth skin.


[ HOW TO USE ]

Method of Usage:
After cleansing with the Perfect BB remover, apply Perfect BB Toner on the entire face avoiding the eyes. Or take a proper amount of Perfect BB Toner on the cotton pad and wipe the face. Day and Night Use.

You get 150ml of product.

[ INGREDIENTS ]


Water, Butylene, Glycol, Clycerin, PEG/PPG-17/6 Copolymer, Betaine, Sodium PCA, Arbutin, Phenoxyethanol, Centaurea Cyanus Flower Extract, Borago Officinalis Extract, Lavandula Angustifolia [ Lavender ] Extract, Chamomila Recututita [ Matricaria ] Flower/Leaf Extract, Methyl Paraben, PPG-26-Buteth-26, PEG-40 Hydrogenated castor oil, Coffea Arabica [ Coffee ] Seed Extract, Carthamus Tinctorius [ Safflower ] Flower Extract, Polygonum Cuspidatum Root Extract, Diosproys Kaki Leaf Extract, Vitis Vinifera [ Grape ] Fruit Extract, Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract, Castanea Crenata Shell Extract, Allantoin, Xanthan Cum, PEG-180, Gluconolatone, Dipotassium Clycyrrhizate, Fragrance CI 17200, CI 42090.

The main ingredients of this toner is Arbutin, Tannin Complex, & Blue Complex.
ARBUTIN is a glycoside, extracted from the bearberry plant & is used for it's use in prohibiting melanin, which is what gives your skin it's distinctive color. The ARBUTIN in this toner is used to lighten & brighten the skin.
TANNIN COMPLEX is a naturally occurring polyphenol that works as the astringent in this toner to cleanse the skin of any impurities.
I couldn't find any information on the BLUE COMPLEX in this toner.


The toner comes in a slim, blue container with a blue cap. It's a bit tall as well, not ideal for traveling, but I haven't experienced any issues when traveling.


The back of the container also has the Dermatologist Test Completed print as well as some information in Korean.


The product dispenses out of a push pump, which makes things tons easier. It's very controlled & easy to pump the product out. Two pumps of this is perfect for my entire face.


You can't quite tell here, but when you look closely before using the toner, once it's dispensed, you can see it has a blue tint to it. 


This toner sinks into the skin very fast & easy!

I've never used an essence/toner before starting to use this one. I really enjoy using this product. I've really seen an improvement in the way my skin looks & feels. Sometimes, I feel I could just get away with using this & a facial cream during the day. I find this has really regulated my oil product in my T-zone. It doesn't dry my skin out so much that I feel I have to put creams on my skin directly after applying this. Since it has the essence in this toner as well, it's makes my skin soft & hydrated right away! My skin also seems much more better looking in terms of my skin tone. The toner has also made it look very bright & pretty!

I apply it buy pumping two pumps into the palm of my hand & rubbing my hands together then to pat the essence/toner onto my face. A fresh feeling is felt on application & this toner also smells very fresh, a smell similar to apples.

What I also really like about this toner is how much I don't need to use & how much I still have left since starting use. I haven't even made it to the halfway mark of use yet, & I use this religiously day & night. 

I have no issues with this product at all. I'm very happy I was allowed to review this. 

5/5

I plan to keep use of this product since I don't have anything else that is like this product or compares to what it has done for my face.

If you'd like to try this out for yourself:


Momomango.com - BRTC Perfect BB Toner - $ 29.99.

I highly recommend buying this if you feel like you need a jump start into your skin care regime. This is perfect for anyone who wants a product that benefits the skin in more way than one.

I hope you've enjoyed this review!

Hope you have a wonderful day <3

REVIEW: Skin Food Peach Sake Toner!

Well, good morning my darlings! Oh man, my week is going to be so hetic! We're finally cleaning out my apartment & going through what I need or don't need. Goodwill is going to love me! It's definietly time for a new start & getting rid of the "don't needs" makes me feel so great! I hope you're week is going smoothly. It's HUMPDAY <3. Oh, & I finally went & seen Insidious 2. I'm pretty used to jump scare movies, so I expected a lot of that. It was such a good movie & a wonderful follow-up to it's predecessor. Definitely explained a lot that needed to be.  



Today, I'll be reviewing Skin Food's Peach Sake Toner, which is part of a Peach Sake line Skin Food offers. I ended up purchasing this simply bc TesterKorea didn't seem to carry a full sized Fresh Apple Sparkling Pore Toner. I did a mini-review on the samples I ordered awhile back [ review here ]. I really wanted to get that particular one, but decided since there wasn't any on their website, that I would try this one... half my decision was made bc of the bottle. :P


The product comes in a really pretty, matte bottle shaped like something you'd pour sake out of. [ I've never had sake, so I wouldn't personally know ]. It didn't come with a box. Instead, it was tightly sealed in plastic with a perforated part to easily take the plastic off. I love how bright & fresh the colors look against the bottle. In the above photo, it says:

Peach Sake Toner
Food Therapy
Special food ingredients for the skin. Contains many nutritive ingredients such as fresh plants, fruits, etc. to keep our skin healthy. 
135ml

Sounds pretty impressive.


[ DESCRIPTION ]

SKINFOOD Peach Sake Toner (Pore-refining)
A refreshing toner that eliminates shine from enlarged pores and excessive sebum production with finest sake and peach extracts.

[ TO USE ]
Wash your face, put a portion of the toner on your palm and then rub it gently into your face or put a small amount on a cosmetic cotton pad and smoothly apply outward along facial textures.


The cap kind of has a cork feeling to it, but it twists off. I love the detailing!


There is also a protective seal on the opening, which I like. I also really like how the product dispenses, that way you don't end up pouring too much out.


As you can clearly tell, my pores needed some cleansing. This was taken after I wash & toned my face with this toner. Pretty effective! It also smells heavenly! Like peach schnapps or peach Ciroc if you've ever had the opportunity to smell either one of those. It has a sweet peach scent. Maybe a little sweeter than what an actual peach would smell like. 

Overall, I definitely am glad I chose to try this toner out before any others. It cleans well without leaving my skin feel tight. My pores look much better after continuous use of this toner. I don't know if I would purchase again due to the fact that I would love to try other toners, but this toner is awesome for it's price.

A definite 5/5. Might be my 2nd holy grail toner~ LOL

MINI-REVIEW: Skin Food Cabbage Toner!

Good morning darlings! It's Friday~ ( don't get that song stuck in your head, OK? ). Hope you've all had a pleasent week. Mine was uneventful as usual, but my 3-day weekend looks promising. I have another mini-review for you today!

I got a few samples of these when I ordered from TesterKorea. What I like to do is have the samples with me when I'm spending the night away from home. They're much more travel friendly. Lugging around full sized products can be a task! ^-^;



[ FIRST IMPRESSIONS ]


You can kind of see the nasty it took off my face. This is after cleansing, of course.

The scent of this toner is odd. I'm not quite sure it's a genuine "cabbage" smell, but it's not unpleasant & it wears off quickly. When applying the toner, it applies really smoothly when used with the cotton round. It's also moisturizing. It didn't leave my face tight like a toner with alcohol would normally do. However, this doesn't clean as effectively as the Skin Food Fresh Apple Sparkling Pore Toner [ x ] does. It's not a bad toner if you want something more natural cleansing your skin.

Verdict: MIGHT PURCHASE

If I didn't already have a good amount of toners/sample toners already in my stash, I'd probably go ahead & buy this for the fact that it doesn't leave my skin feeling too dried out. My only issue is that it doesn't cleanse as well as my other toners. 

If you want to try it out for yourself:


TesterKorea.com - Skin Food Cabbage Toner Samples - USD $1.56
TesterKorea.com - Skin Food Young Leaves Pure Cabbage Gift Set - USD $0.78
TesterKorea.com - Skin Food Cabbage Toner - USD $10.68

Hope you've enjoyed this mini-review & I hope it was helpful!

Have a great weekend my lovelies!
