Handyhülle von GoCustomized

23. April 2017

// PR SAMPLE / ACCESSOIRES //

Today’s post will be about a customized mobile case from GoCustumized. I decided to write the post in German since the products are directed mainly towards German customers, but shipping to other countries is possible, too.If you want to know any details to the below products, please feel free to ask in the comments below. I’ll be happy to answer your questions :)

Ich bin schon längere Zeit unzufrieden mit meiner Hartschalenhülle für mein Handy gewesen und war aber immer sehr unentschlossen was für eine neue Hülle für mich geeignet wäre. Daher kam es mir sehr recht, dass ich die Möglichkeit erhalten habe mir eine eigene Handyhülle von GoCustomized zusammen zustellen und euch vorzustellen. Ich bin super zufrieden mit dem Ergebnis und hier könnt ihr sehen für was für eine Hülle ich mich jetzt entschieden habe:

Handyhülle von GoCustomized

Bei GoCustomized kann man Handyhülle selbst gestalten und dazu werden zahlreiche Hüllen für verschiedene Handymodelle angeboten. Da ich selber eine Samsung Galaxy S6 besitze war es mir wichtig, dass bei einem Anbieter für Handyhüllen auch viele Handymodelle bedient werden. Bei GoCustumized findet man neben Hüllen für iPhone und Samsung auch noch weitere Anbieter, wie HTC, Huawai, LG und Sony. Es gibt die Möglichkeit zwischen verschiedenen Hüllentypen zu entscheiden, wie zum Beispiel Silikonhülle, Hardcase, Flipcase, Lederhülle, und sogar Holzhülle. Dann kann man sich außerdem aussuchen, ob man eines der vorhandenen Motive wählt. oder ein eigenes Foto oder Design verwenden möchte. Ich finde es super, dass so viele Möglichkeiten gegeben sind. Am liebsten hätte ich ein eigens gestaltetes Motiv verwendet, aber da ich aufgrund der Arbeit sehr viel um die Ohren hatte bin ich in der vorhandenen Motiv-Datenbank fündig geworden und habe genau ein Motiv gefunden was meinem Geschmack entsprochen hat.

Handyhülle von GoCustomized

Das Gestalten und Aussuchen der Handyhülle geht problemlos und sehr selbsterklärend von statten, und wenn man sich erst einmal für eine Hülle entschieden hat wird diese auch schnellstmöglich bearbeitet und verschickt. Nach spätestens drei Tagen erfolgt der Versand. Meine Hülle kam nach exakt 3 Tagen bei mir an.

Handyhülle von GoCustomized

Und hier ist die fertige Silikonhülle für die ich mich entschieden habe. Ich wollte gerne ein Blättermotiv verwenden, weil ich momentan ziemlich verliebt in Monstera-Pflanzen bin. Die Hülle passt auch perfekt zum Sommer und zur Urlaubszeit vom Motiv her. Davor hatte ich eine Hardcase-Hülle, die mein Handy aber nur riesig aussehen lassen hat. Mit der Silikonhülle wird das Handy kaum dicker als ohne, ist aber dabei dank der griffigeren Rückseite der Hülle besser in der Hand zu halten als vorher.

Handyhülle von GoCustomized

Das neue Design für das Samsung Galaxy S6 lässt mein Handy auch wieder im neuen Glanz erstrahlen. Ich bin total begeistert was so ein Hüllenwechsel bewirken kann. Vielleicht sollte ich öfter mal die Handyhülle tauschen um diesen Effekt auszulösen.

Handyhülle von GoCustomized

Eine Handyhülle von GoCustomized aus Silikon kostet 14.99 € zuzüglich Versand (Standardversand liegt bei 2.39 €). Ich finde der Preis ist fair für die zum einen gute Verarbeitung und zum anderen für die Schnelligkeit der Lieferung. Ich bin sehr zufrieden mit meiner neuen Handyhülle und kann jedem der von seinem Handy gelangweilt ist nur empfehlen sich auch einmal eine neue Hülle zuzulegen.

Was haltet ihr von meiner neuen Handyhülle von GoCustomized?

Review: I’m from Ginseng Serum

22. April 2017

// PR SAMPLE / SKINCARE / KBEAUTY //

I’m so happy to present to you another serum that has become a fixed part in my skincare routine. A while ago I received this new I’m from Ginseng Serum from Wishtrend for reviewing purpose and I’ve been using it every day since then. I’ve been so curious to try a ginseng serum since some time now and seeing that I’m from has newly launched products containing Ginseng made me really curious. I’ve been loving the I’m from Honey Mask so I had high expectations and hopes for this product, too.

I'm from Ginseng Serum

I’m from is a Korean brand with the motto “a good cosmetics with a good ingredient”. I’m from is using natural ingredients in their cosmetics, and they want to be honest and quality provider. They have three promises to their customers, being 1. open composition, which means known ingredients, 2. Honest Farm, meaning honest ingredients with a true origin, and 3. being free of harmful chemicals. The I’m from Ginseng Serum is packed in a brown cardboard box with an imprinted pattern of ginseng. The brown color makes it look quite traditional in my opinion. Inside the cardboard box, you will find a 30 ml glass bottle with a dropper attached to the cap.

I'm from Ginseng Serum

The I’m from Ginseng Serum is targeting nourishment, rejuvenation and has anti-aging properties. It gives elasticity to mid-aged skin containing concentrated ginseng extract.

I'm from Ginseng Serum

The ingredients of the serum are listed on the cardboard packaging:

Water, Red Ginseng Extract, Butylene Glycol, Betaine, 1,2-Hexanediol, Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract, Glycerin, Panax Ginseng Seed Oil, Glycyrrhiza Uralensis (Licorice) Root Extract, Paeonia Albiflora Root Extract, Angelica Gigas Root Extract, Rheum Palmatum Root Extract, Angelica Pubescens Root Extract, Schizonepeta Tenuifolia Extract, Phellodendron Amurense Bark Extract, Hydroxyethylcellulose, Cyclopentasiloxane, Dimethiconol, Bis-PEG-18 Methyl Ether Dimethyl Silane, Ethoxydiglycol, Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer, Tromethamine, PEG-60 Hydrogenated Castor Oil, Ethylhexylglycerin, Hydrolyzed Glycosaminoglycans, Hyaluronic Acid, Glyceryl Polyacrylate, Adenosine, Disodium EDTA, Fragrance

You can find the ingredients list on COSDNA, too. Red Ginseng Extract is the key ingredient of the serum, but you will also find other ingredients listed, that is always welcome in my skincare: the serum also contains green tea leaf extract, ginseng oil, licorice root extract, and a couple of other plant-derived extracts. It also contains hyaluronic acid for moisturization. There are some remarks for the ingredients list though: the product also contains Cyclopentasiloxane, a cyclic silicon derivate that temporarily plumps the skin and makes it feel softer. It also enables other silicon products to absorb better into the skin and is often used together with Dimethiconol, like you will find here, too. Dimethiconol is a lipid on silicon basic that makes the skin feel soft but doesn’t feel greasy. Although it is on silicon basis it has a positive effect on the skin, because it enhances the moisture content of the skin to keep it hydrated. But, if you are generally avoiding silicons this product is not suited for you.

I'm from Ginseng Serum

Ginseng

The I’m from Ginseng Serum contains 7.98 % red ginseng extract. Ginseng extract has the properties to enhance the blood circulation. It contains a large number of phytonutrients which have anti-aging properties and effect on the skin, like stimulating the collagen production. Ginseng also contains many vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. All these properties act positively on your skin and its appearance making it look more lively and plump and younger.

I'm from Ginseng Serum

I received this serum as part of the beauty tester program and I’ve been using it every day since, mostly twice a day. This jelly, golden serum applies nicely and feels moist on the skin. It has a nice ginseng scent with a rose scent undertone. The scent is very present, so it is may be difficult to handle for scent sensitive people. It absorbs quickly but leaves the skin slightly sticky at first, but this feeling vanishes after some time. There is no greasy film left on the skin and the skin feels soft and smooth (due to the silicons). The serum makes the skin feel more bouncy and plump and it also makes the skin appear more glowy and healthy after using it. In terms of anti-aging, it is hard to say if it reduces the wrinkles or not. So far I didn’t see any visible changes here.

I'm from Ginseng Serum

I personally enjoy using this serum a lot. I love the scent and the texture of the serum. I also love the effect it has considering the improved elasticity on the skin. I have to point out nevertheless, that the smooth feeling of the skin is mainly caused by the silicons in the ingredients list. Also, for people who are scent sensitive, the scent will be too strong I guess. This is the first serum I used containing highly concentrated ginseng, and to be honest I’m now curious to compare it with other ginseng serum.

If you are curious about this serum, too, it retails for 28.80 US$ and is available at Wishtrend. You will find all the information about the I’m from Ginseng Serum >>here<<. Also keep in mind the friend-referral program from Wishtrend: You can receive a 5 Us$ referral coupon if you use my invitation code 17939205 upon registration and you’ll receive this voucher immediately. There will be a specific field in your registration form called “friends invitation program” where you can put the code mentioned above. This way new customers can save 5 US$ which is a great possibility to save some money. also, Wishtrend has a Free-Shipping Area, where you can find products that can be bought with free shipping.

Review: HICKAP Eyeshadow Palette & Brushes

20. April 2017

Here is my last review for the make-up products from the HICKAP. I’m very excited about these reviews since I was send so many products, which I didn’t except and also since some of the products have become part of my daily make-up, too. The last reviews were about the Lip Pencils and Lipstick, and the Blushes & Bronzer. Today, it is about the HICKAP Eyeshadow Palette & Brushes:

HICKAP Eyeshadow Palette

Let me start with an introduction to the brand: HICKAP is a Swedish clothing and make-up brand brought to life by Wilma and Emil Holmqvist. These two created a YouTube channel with the purpose to enspire people and they were successful with it. Wilmas Beauty is one of Swedens most popular YouTube channels for teenagers these days. Their newly released brand  and its first collection is based on the idea of affordable products boosted with confidence and class. Also, if you are familiar with the online Swedish retailer NA-KD you maybe came across HICKAP, too.

HICKAP Eyeshadow Palette

I was really surprised to find so many products reaching from all ranges of HICKAP’s make-up products. After taking all the pictures I knew that I couldn’t put all the pictures in one post, so I grouped them after all. I started with the HICKAP Lip Pencils & Lipstick, continuing with the Blushes and Bronzer yesterday, and today it is about the HICKAP Eyeshadow Palette and the HICKAP Brushes. But first let’s appreciate the minimalistic and very clean design of the HICKAP products. Black is the main color with a very simply white lettering. The design reminds me of timeless brands like MAC or in kbeauty terms Stylenanda’s 3CE.

HICKAP Eyeshadow Palette

HICKAP Eyeshadow Palette

“Simple to blend and simple to use. Regardless if you are going to a party or enjoying the everyday life.”

The HICKAP Eyesgadow palette comes in a black square shape with a sleek and simple design. It contains 4 different colors: white, light brown, dark brown and black. Two of the shades have a glowy finish (white and light brown), whereas the other two shades (dark brown and black) are matte. I love combinations of eyeshadows with matte and glowy finish. It makes the colors much more versatile to use. What makes this palette special is the magnetic lid. The lid is attached to the bottom part with four magnets on the corners and can be removed fully and separated from the eyeshadows. I never saw a palette with such a lid before, so I was more than amazed by this little extra feature.

HICKAP Eyeshadow Palette

As you can see all the four shades have a visible pigmentation, with the white shade being the most delicate and subtle shade. It is a super nice color as a base though in my opinion. I love the matte brown and black shade, that can be used perfectly for smokey eye make-up. The eyeshadows create fall-off when used and again it depends on the brushes how strong the pigmentation turns out. The colors are all in all neutral and can be used for most daily and evening eye make-up looks.

HICKAP Eyeshadow Palette

HICKAP Brush Collection

I also received 10 brushes from HICKAP of all sizes and shapes, making their Brush Collection. The HICKAP brush collection is a 100% Animal Cruely Free brush set using high quality synthetic hair bristles. These brushes were designed so powder, cream and liquid products are distributed directly to the skin without absorbing or wasting product. Also, the brushes are coated with an antibacterial solution for minimal brush cleansing that makes your brushes stay fresh and clean for longer periods of time.

“With its Vegan makeup qualities from bristles to ferrule this set is a must have in your makeup collection.”

I haven’t tested the brushes long enough to know, if their claim about the antibacterial solution for minimal brush cleansing is true or not, but I can confirm that their bristles are dense and super soft. The bronze metal part around the handle makes them appear high quality too, and also they seem to be sturdy and not easy to get damaged. For applying eyeshadows and blushes these brushes work very well and don’t dissapoint. I haven’t used them for foundations yet (because I mainly use cushions).

HICKAP Eyeshadow Palette

I’m almost sad that this is already my last review of the HICKAP products, but I’m also happy that I was able to introduce them to you. I’m definitely not an expert when it comes to eyeshadows and brushes, but I keep learning every day and I’m happy about a set of really high quality brushes to use for learning here. Also the eyeshadow palette contains all the basic shades a beginner needs to have. I like how there are two matte and two glowy shades and I love the special magnetic lid mechanism it has. The HICKAP Eyeshadow Palette is on sale at the moment, too!

The eyeshadow palette retails for 22.23 € instead of 33.40 €, the Brush collection retails for 50.50 €. Below you can find the links to each of the products:

Review: HICKAP Blushes & Bronzer

19. April 2017

Let’s continue my reviews for the make-up products from the HICKAP. I’m very excited about these reviews since I was send so many products, which I didn’t except and also since some of the products have become part of my daily make-up, too. Yesterday, I showed you the Lip Pencils and Lipstick, and today it is all about the HICKAP Blushes & Bronzer:

HICKAP Blushes & Bronzer

Let me start with an introduction to the brand: HICKAP is a Swedish clothing and make-up brand brought to life by Wilma and Emil Holmqvist. These two created a YouTube channel with the purpose to enspire people and they were successful with it. Wilmas Beauty is one of Swedens most popular YouTube channels for teenagers these days. Their newly released brand  and its first collection is based on the idea of affordable products boosted with confidence and class.

After taking all the pictures I knew that I couldn’t put all the pictures in one post, so I grouped them after all. I started with the HICKAP Lip Pencils & Lipstick yesterday, and continuing with the Blushes and Bronzer today. But first let’s appreciate the minimalistic and very clean design of the HICKAP products. Black is the main color with a very simply white lettering. The design reminds me of timeless brands like MAC or in kbeauty terms Stylenanda’s 3CE.

HICKAP Blushes & Bronzer

I received two blushes and one bronzer, which all come packed in square black & white cardboard boxes. Also the pans of the blushes and bronzer are squere shaped, perfect for organizing them in drawers :D.

HICKAP Blushes & Bronzer

HICKAP Blushes

“The Perfect shades for your blushy look. Blush!”

The HICKAP Blushes are available in two shades called “Passion” and “Caramel”. Both are powder blushes that are easily to apply and have just the right amount of pigmentation.

HICKAP Blushes & Bronzer

Both shades are rose toned, but “Passion” is a darker shade than “Caramel”. “Passion” gives you a nice rose blush that will give you the romantic look and add some glowy finish on top. “Caramel” is a matte shade, that slightly tends towards coral. Recently, I’ve been using “Caramel” pretty much every day, because the shade is so wearable.

HICKAP Blushes & Bronzer

HICKAP Bronzer

The HICKAP Bronzer in “Warm Matte” is a matte bronzer in a light beige color with a slightly glowing finish.

“This bronzer gives your face that perfect contour you just dying to have.”

HICKAP Blushes & Bronzer

Below you can see the swatches of all three products. All three shades are pigmented well enough to be used directly on the face, but they all can be blended in nicely, too, resulting in more delicate and natural pigmentations. The products cause some fall-off while using them, but it also depends on the density and stiffness of the brush bristles you use of course.

HICKAP Blushes & Bronzer

My final verdict of  these HICKAP Blushes & Bronzer is positive. I love how blendable they are and I’m super in love with the blush in shade “Caramel”. It is my favorite blush color at the moment and I’m using it daily. The bronzer might be slightly to orange-shaded for my personal preference for contouring, but it can be used greatly to emphazise cheek bones and gives a nice sunkissed glow. All three products are also on sale at the moment, so I can definitely recommend you to give them a try.

Each of the three products retails for 11.06 € instead of 16.64 €! Below, you can find the links to each of the products:

Review: HICKAP Lip Pencils & Lipstick

18. April 2017

Within the next days I’m going to share a couple of reviews introducing make-up products from the HICKAP I’m very excited about these reviews since I was send so many products, which I didn’t except and also since some of the products have become part of my daily make-up, too. Today, I will start with the HICKAP Lip Pencils & Lipstick:

HICKAP Lip

These two created a YouTube channel with the purpose to enspire people and they were successful with it. Wilmas Beauty is one of Swedens most popular YouTube channels for teenagers these days.

But first let’s appreciate the minimalistic and very clean design of the HICKAP products. Black is the main color with a very simply white lettering. The design reminds me of timeless brands like MAC or in kbeauty terms Stylenanda’s 3CE.

HICKAP Lip

As you know, I love lip products and one of my favourite lip colors is classy red. I was more than happy to spot a red lipstick. Additionally, three different lip pencils completed the set of lip products here.

HICKAP Lip

HICKAP Lipstick “Red Carpet”

“Red Carpet”, the name already reveals the classy color of this lipstick: a vibrant red shade, like the beautful people in Hollywood would wear.

“A red lipstick that make your lips pop. Stand out from the crowd with lipstick from HICKAP. Here I am!”

HICKAP Lip

Like all products from HICKAP the lipstick is cruelty-free. Also, it contains different plant based oils to provide your lips with moisture and create that creamy lipstick finish.

HICKAP Lip

HICKAP Lip Pencils

I received the HICKAP lip pencils in three shades called “Sour”, “Plum”, and “Candy Apple”. All pencils come with a cap to protect the tip and have to be sharpened wih a regular sharpener, once blunt. And also here, all of them are cruelty-free.

“Sharping your lips and makes them fleeky. Smile!”

HICKAP Lip

“Sour” is a rose brown color for your lip shape. It has that classy nude shade that is quite liked by many people these days. “Plum” is a light plum color, that has a cool undertone. “Candy Apple” is an intensive red that also fits perfectly to the HICKAP lipstick in “Red Carpet”.

HICKAP Lip

Below you can see the swatches for all four products starting with the lip pencils from the left in “Sour”, “Plum”, and “Candy Apple”. The lipstick is shown on the right. As you can see all the shades are vibrant and pigmented and even the nude shades show up on the skin.

HICKAP Lip

But also on the lips all colors are distinct and show up even on my darker toned lips. The HICKAP Lip Pencils are harder to work with, because they are not very creamy. It is important to have scrubbed the lips before to avoid that flaky skin is emphasized. Especially shade “Sour” works best on perfctly smooth lips. The staying power of the red lip pencil is the best of these three shades, because the stain keeps staying on the lips until eating a proper meal. The nude shades dissapear quite qickly though. All the lip pencils have a matte finish. The lipstick is creamier and easier to apply compared to the lip pencils. It has a classy cream lipstick finish and is easier to work with than the lip pencils. It does not have the same long-staying stain as the red lip liner, but the lip liner and the lipstick in combination do the trick.

HICKAP Lip

I’m always happy to get to know new make-up brands and especially new lip products. I love the three shades of the HICKAP and how pigmented they all are, despite their shade. Also, the staining power of the red lip liner was really convincing. I’d have loved if the bullet of the pencils would be slightly more creamy than it is now, because it would make it better suited for people with dry lips. The HICKAP lipstick is very classy and has a lovely and perfect consitency. You never can go wrong with red lips.

The lip pencils retail for 8.82 € and the lipstick for 16.64 € and you can them via the links below:

Review: First Cosmetics Mulbit Vitamin Sparkling Mist

16. April 2017

My short video on Instagram showing the First Cosmetics Mulbit Vitamin Sparkling Mist made many of you quite curious what this product is after all. This is the last product from BNTnews this month and it is also the most fun product from the three I received.

First Cosmetics Mulbit Vitamin Sparkling Mist

First Cosmetics is not a brand that I knew before, but it is also one of many Korean brands it seems. First Cosmetics Mulbit Vitamin Sparkling Mist is a kit to prepare your own DIY mist, containing everything you need to have for doing so. It is beautifully packed in a gift box packaging with holographic sparkles all over. Very elegant and feminin. I love the blue color of the box!

First Cosmetics Mulbit Vitamin Sparkling Mist

The description of the product is written in Korean only, except for the ingredients. But luckily, BNTnews send the translated instructions, otherwise I would not have been able to do it right ptobably.

First Cosmetics Mulbit Vitamin Sparkling Mist

The ingredients listed on COSDNA:

Sodium Bicarbonate, Adipic Acid, Sodium Carbonate, Glucose, Sucrose, Citric Acid, Ascorbic Acid, PEG-150, Trehalose, Adenosine, Niacinamide, Hydrolized Collagen, Biotin, Riboflavin, Citrus Limon (Lemon) Fruit Powder, Fragaria Ananassa (Strawberry) Fruit Powder, Lavendula Angustifolia (Lavender) Extract, Rosmarinus Officinalis(Rosemarty) Leaf Extract, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Powder, Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate, Fragnance, Cl 16185, Cl 19140, Cl 15985, Cl 42090

The ingredients are really ingresting and mostly sugars and plant extracts. Additionally, Niacinamide and Adenosine are also included in the ingredients. apart from the fragnance and the coloring, the only ingredient not labelled green is PEG-150, a binding agent.

First Cosmetics Mulbit Vitamin Sparkling Mist

Inside the beauty is continued by two bottle: one bottle containing colorful tablets. A second empty atomizer bottle made from glas with golden cap and ornaments lies beside the beautiful tablet bottle.

First Cosmetics Mulbit Vitamin Sparkling Mist

The tablett bottle has a very oldstyle and beautiful design, but made from hard plastic.

First Cosmetics Mulbit Vitamin Sparkling Mist

The two bottles look really beautiful to look at next to each other.

First Cosmetics Mulbit Vitamin Sparkling Mist

The bottle containing the colorful tablet is probably the most eye-catching factor of the kit. Look at all those pastell colors:

First Cosmetics Mulbit Vitamin Sparkling Mist

There are four different colors of the tablets, blue, yellow, pink, and green. Each color targets a certain skincare problem:

First Cosmetics Mulbit Vitamin Sparkling Mist

Green contains Rosemary extracts and targets wrinkles, Blue contains Lavender Extract and targets skin reproduction, Yellow contains lemon extract and has brightening properties, and last but not least, Pink contains strawberry extracts for skin condition management.

 

First Cosmetics Mulbit Vitamin Sparkling Mist

Yet, with the tablets and the bottles we do not have a mist yet, but we have to prepare it. Therefore, according to the instructions you fill the atomizer bottle with 2/3 with warm water, then you add two of the tablets into the bottle, too, and wait for the magic to happen. The tablets will sizzle and bubble up until fully dissolved into the water, staining it with the color of the tablets used. I used the pink tablets for skin condition management for my test. After the tablets are fully melted you can close the atomizer bottle with the cap, but reopen it after 1 hour to fully let out all the air. Otherwise you will ruin the spray bottle by clogging it. Your selfmade mist is now ready to use.

First Cosmetics Mulbit Vitamin Sparkling Mist

I only tried one of the tablets, because I’m not using mists daily, so I cannot talk about the effect or the differences between all the colors, but for me the mist was a miss considering the effect because I didn’t feel any differences except from that refreshening feeling that you get by spraying water on and around your face. Yet, probably caused by the sugars, the mist leaves a slightly sticky feeling on the skin. I was only able to test the pink tablet here.

First Cosmetics Mulbit Vitamin Sparkling Mist

I would probably not repurchase this mist, and also I must state here, that for all and every DIY skincare product it is important to work hygienically…you do not want any molds or bacteria infect your product. Also, depending on the water quality of your living area you might consider to take drinking water…or substitute it maybe with your favourite toner…Also, I would not keep the product for longer than a week. The process is super fun and exciting and I can definetly say that I was entertained here. Another evidence that asian beauty brands are the champions when it comes to “skincaretainment”. But in terms of skincare benefits, I do not really see the use of the product here.

First Cosmetics Mulbit Vitamin Sparkling Mist

First Cosmetics Mulbit Vitamin Sparkling Mist was fun to use, but did not have sufficient visible effects for me to make it a HG or favorite product for me. The amount of tablets will definitely last you for many weeks though, but unfortunately, I don’t know the pricetag for this new product yet. also, please keep in mind, to work as hygienically as possible when you are dealing with DIY products like that. This might also be something, that is not suited for everyone.

Unboxing: InStyle Box Spring Edition 2017

15. April 2017

Today, I’m going to share a very wonderful unboxing with you. This is the first time I had the opportunity to receive an InStyle Box and I love its content. So, if you do not want to be spoilert please don’t continue to read, because here is my unboxing for the InStyle Box Spring Edition 2017:

InStyle Box Spring Edition

The InStyle Box Spring Edition 2017 is curated by the InStyle Magazine, providing you with trendy items for the spring season. The topic of this box is focussing on detoxing and resheshing, since spring is always the best season to do so.

InStyle Box Spring Edition

The first thing that I noticed was, that the box was super heavy! I was really wondering what was inside…and the excitement grew even bitter when I opened up the package.

InStyle Box Spring Edition

The box was crammed full with wonderful products. After searching through the tons of paper shreds I discovered a total of 10 products reaching from Beauty, Fashion & Accessories, Lifestyle & Living, to Food & Nutrition.

InStyle Box Spring Edition

 

The most anticipated products were the ones from JorgeObé. I knew that Scrub Mask would be included in the box and I was especially curious to try it. The JorgObé products are producted in Denmark and are vegan, free from artificial coloring, parabens, mineral oil or silicon. Moreover they have a very minimalistic and clean product design.

InStyle Box Spring Edition

JorgObé Refreshing Scrub Mask

JorgObé’s Refreshing Scrub Mask is a 2-in-1 face mask that can be used both as scrub cream or as deep cleansing mask. It contains Black-Jojoba Peeling Sheres for peeling the skin and removing dead skincells and impurities (so no microbeads here). The mask is a clay mask contains white Kaolin. Apricot kennel oil and shea butter provide your skin with moissture and protection during the peeling effect. After from the mechanical peeling effect of the jojoba peeling particles the mask also contains salicylic acid and polylacxtic acid. After application your skin will feel refreshed and leave acooling effect behind (fullsize retails for 26.99€).

InStyle Box Spring Edition

Review: Maxclinic Meso Change Program

11. April 2017

The name of this newly launched product is super long: Maxclinic Neo-Tingle Patch Roller Program for Turn Over and Skin Rejuvenation…wow! Let’s shorten it to Maxclinic Meso Change Program, a skincare program designed to give deep hydration and firmness to the skin by using a kind of micro-needling technique to reach the lower layers of the skin. This products was kindly offered to me by BNTnews for reviewing purpose.

Maxclinic Meso Change Program

I’ve been reviewing two products from Maxclinic previously and both of them were cleansers, so I’m really happy to be able to try another type of product from this Korean brand.

Maxclinic Meso Change Program

The Maxclinic Meso Change Program consists of two components packed in a beautiful golden gift box. The design of the box is simple and yet elegant, somehow also appears science-y. The two components of the program are the Maxclinic Deep & Deeper Meso Change Ampoule and the Maxclinic Hyaluronic Meso Change Roller.

Maxclinic Meso Change Program

The Maxclinic Meso Change Program is designed for those that feel that their skin is not absorbing other skincare products even though you are exfoliating your skin. Furthermore, micro-needling is quite famous these days so it enables a well-known spa-treatment in your home, too.

Maxclinic Meso Change Program

Micro-Needling

If you haven’t heard of micro-needling yet you might be a bit confused now. Micro-needling is a new technique that is used to renew the skin’s appearance and texture by bringing beneficial ingredients (usually hyaluronic acid and collagen) into the deeper layers of the dermis using tiny needles rolling over the skin that create small channels/ micro-injuries. The nutritious ingredients can now be absorbed better into the layers below the dermis. Many people believe in the effect and also show considerable before and after pictures to show the positive effect of this method on their skin. The technique is offered in beauty saloons, but also by skin doctor’s and plastic surgeons. Most people are either afraid of the possible pain (it contains the word “needle”, which means there is something going on here) or don’t want to “hurt” their skin physically. Yes, there are needles and yes- depending on your pain tolerance- it could hurt or tingle and your face will be irritated and red some time. But still, there is a difference between the micro-needling performed at the doctor’s to the micro-needling performed at home: usually, the needles used by professionals are longer and thus penetrate deeper into the skin.

Maxclinic Meso Change Program

The Maxclinic Meso Change Program is not using a real micro-needling roller though! The real micro-needling rollers or dermarollers are made with needles of stainless steel that can be disinfected and reused several times. The Maxclinic Hyaluronic Meso Change Roller is designed for a one-time usage. The needles of the roller are not real needles, but they are made of pyramid-shaped hyaruronic acid and lactose. I suppose the lactose sugar helps to crystallize the hyaluronic acid to form the “needles”. While rolling it over the skin the “needles” melt into the skin and the roller becomes blunt and can be discarded. The Maxclinic Meso Change Program contains 4 of the separately packed rollers, a handle in order to use them, and 4 small bottles of the Maxclinic Deep & Deeper Meso Change Ampoule.

Maxclinic Meso Change Program

Maxclinic Deep & Deeper Meso Change Ampoule

Before you start using the roller on your face you should apply the highly concentrated special ampoule, which is prepared without even a drop of water! Each of the small ampoule bottles contain 7 ml, so one bottle will last for several applications. The ampoule contains the core ingredients of the dermis, collagen, hyaluronic acid, and four types of ceramides. These ingredients penetrate deep into the skin to visibly firm, nourish, and strengthen the skin barrier. Active ingredients are Adenosine and Niacinamide. The other ingredients are listed below:

Centella Asiatica Leaf Water, Glycerin, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Hydrogenated Lecithin, Propanediol, Olea Europaea (Olive) Fruit Oil, 1,2-Hexanediol, Ethylhexyl Palmitate, Squalane, Collagen, Glyceryl Stearate SE, Potassium Cetyl Phosphate, Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil, Polyglyceryl-3 Cetyl Ether, Triolein, Glyceryl Dioleate, Sodium Hyaluronate, Hydrolyzed Hyaluronic Acid, Ceramide NP, Ceramide NS, Ceramide EOP, Ceramide AP, Polyglyceryl-10 Myristate, Polyglyceryl-10 Laurate, Tocopheryl Acetate, Allantoin, Panthenol, Argania Spinosa Kernel Oil, Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil, Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate, Gossypium Herbaceum (Cotton) Seed Oil, Arctium Lappa Seed Oil, Pyridoxine HCl, Cyanocobalamin, Maltodextrin, Citric Acid, Sodium Citrate

You can check the ingredients via COSDNA. It is recommended to apply 8-10 drops to the cleaned and toned face using it once or twice a day. What I like about the ampoule is the screwing cap, so you can always close it up again and use it on another day.

Maxclinic Meso Change Program

The ampoule is a runny cream-type product with a very subtle scent. It has a richness in the texture, but also doesn’t feel heavy or sticky once absorbed. It also does not leave a film on the skin or make it feel greasy.

Maxclinic Meso Change Program

Maxclinic Hyaluronic Meso Change Roller

The Hyaluronic Meso Change roller has a hyaluronic acid content of more than 97 %. As I said before, it doesn’t have real needles, like other micro-needling rollers. It is a one time use roller formulated with guardangular pyramid-shaped hyaruronic acid for deep penetration and enhanced absorption of active ingredients, renewing firmness and smoothness to the skin. The active ingredient is hyaluronic acid, the inactive ingredient is lactose.

Maxclinic Meso Change Program

In order to use the roller first apply the ampoule all over, then place the golden handle included in the kit on the separately packed roller and remove the protective cap.

Maxclinic Meso Change Program

Gently roll across the skin for absorption for 3-5 minutes until the hyaluronic acid melts into the skin. You will feel that the roller becomes blunt. You can now remove the roller from the handle again and discard it. It is recommended to be used once or twice a week.

Maxclinic Meso Change Program

For my personally experience with the Maxclinic Meso Roller Program I have to state that I’m not very pain sensitive. Having dark hair waxing, epilating, and other hair removal techniques have make me quite insensitive. In my opinion, the micro-needling with the Meso Roller Program was not painful. First of all, there are no real needles here. Secondly, the roller becomes blunt quite fast, although I didn’t press hard at all. This is of course different from person to person, but I assume that if you want to try micro-needling and you are afraid of real metal needles you should try this one before. It could be a good way to now, whether you can tolerate the “pain” or not. In my experience, the roller helped to massage the skin and also helped to absorb the ampoule more thoroughly. The skin is feeling more plump, because of the increasing blood circulation by rolling all over. I’d love to try it for more than only 4 weeks to know whether it also makes any differences in the skin’s texture and appearance regarding wrinkles or pores or old scars. I’m not able to tell about these long-term effects though.

Maxclinic Meso Change Program

I think the Maxclinic Meso Roller Program is a great way to try kind of a micro-needling experience at home. I love the fact that the rollers don’t have real needles, but are make from lactose and hyaluronic acid. Also, I did like the consistency of the ampoule and the ingredients used in it. The downside is of course the price: It retails for 152.80 US$ from amazon.com and for 81.05 US$ from eBay for 4 uses! This is a lot of money, but it is still not as much as a session with a professional costs.

Review: Kicho Camelia Sleeping Pack

6. April 2017

Okay, I admit at that point that I LOVE the Kicho Sheep Oil Cream I reviewed previously and since then I’ve wanted to lay my hand on this Kicho Camellia Sleeping Pack. Can you imagine how I freaked out when I saw that I would receive the sleeping pack from BNTnews  for reviewing purpose?! Oh yes, that big smile on my face the whole day! Expectations were high so let’s see if the sleeping pack hold up to them:

Kicho Camelia Sleeping Pack

Kicho cosmetics is a Korean brand and has the saying “We provide pure nature greatness to your skin”. I read so many reviews on their products, especially about the sheep oil cream, and I was not dissapointed. First of all, I love the design of the packaging of the Kicho products. It was already unbelieveably pretty for the cream and here we go again with this breathtaking packaging design! It looks elegant and feminine on the same time with a beautiful flower printing. The cardboard box looks like a present and it is not only pretty from the outside, but even inside the box the beauty continues:

Kicho Camelia Sleeping Pack

Inside you will find the tube of the sleeping pack and a brush. The tube has the same flower illustration as the cardboard box, and all of these flowers are combined with golden colors which makes everything even prettier. Inside the lid you will find the product description, which is written in Korean and at least with English ingredients list. The Kicho Camellia Sleeping Pack is an overnight mask containing Lanolin (“sheep oil”), rose water, fermented black ginseng extract and Camellia Japonica oil (1000mg) as main ingredients. It is also worth to mention that the sleeping pack contains Shea Butter and Hyaluronic Acid, and thus seems to be a great moisturizer already from the ingredients. You can check the full ingredients via COSDNA: Most of the ingredients are green labelled but there are a few potential irritants, too, but nothing really worth to mention.

Water, Glycerin, Lanolin Oil, Butylene Glycol Dicaprylate/Dicaprate, Dimenthicone, Petrolatum, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Glyceryl Stearate, Cetearyl Alcohol, Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea) Butter, Sodium Hyaluronate, Camellia Japonica Seed OIl (1,000mg), Dimenthicone/Vinyl Dimenthicone Crosspolymer, PEG-100 Stearate, Cetearyl Olivate, Sorbitan Olivate, Sorbitan Stearate, Panaz Ginseng Root Extract, Zea Mays (Corn) Kernel Extract, Rosa Centifolia Flower Water, Ammonium Acryloyldimethylataurate/VP Copolymer, Propylene Glycol, Glyceryl Acrylate/Acrylic Acid Copolyer, Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer, Allantoin, Tocopheryl Acetate, Panthenol, Totarol, Decylene Glycol, Ethylhexylglycerin, Hexylene Glycol, Butylene Glycol, Parfum, Disodium EDTA, Magnolia Kobus Bark Extract, Salix Alba (Willow) Bark Extract, Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract, Citrus Grandis (Grapefruit) Fruit Extract, Propolis Extract, Chamomilla Recutita (Matricaria) Flower/Leaf Extract, Thujopsis Dolabrata Branch Extract, BHT, CI 19140, CI 15985, CI 16185, CI 42090.

Kicho Camelia Sleeping Pack

I want to let you know some more about Lanolin at this point, which is a superb ingredient for dry skintypes:

Lanolin

Lanolin is also called wool wax and is produced by the sebaceous glands of sheep to protect their wool from getting wet and protects the sheep from climate and weather. Actually, it is obtained by cleaning the obtained freshly shorn wool from sheep, so you do not need to fear that animals are harmed for obtaining lanolin and the name sheep oil is a bit misleading here because one thinks of horse oil directly. Also, as you might have thought first, Lanolin is not a new fancy ingredient but has been used for more than hundred years and cosmetics and pharmaceutical products. Also, thinking of Lanolin as fat is also not correct, because it lacks glycerides, but contains of sterol esters instead. By hydrolizing lanolin you will obtain lanolin alcohols, which are rich in cholesterol, and lanolin acids. 40 % of the lanolin acids are AHA’s (alpha hydroxy acids)! Also, studies have shown that Lanolin has chemical and physical similarities to human stratum corneum (the skin layer you actually see when looking at your skin) lipids. These lipids regulate the hydration state of your skin. So lanolin is great to protect your skin from water-loss and it also is a great skin softener. Also, since it has semiocclusive properties your skin can still breath. And on top of that the healing properties of lanolin are great and it helps to recover rough and dry, itching and cracking skin better than glycerin or petroleum. Nevertheless, it still might be that you react allergic to lanolin, so be sure to patch test products before using them.

Kicho Camelia Sleeping Pack

The Kicho Camelia Sleeping Pack is an overnight mask that has to be applied before going to bed. In the next morning you wash your face with lukewarm water and will be able to see the results. The Kicho Camelia Sleeping Pack comes in a large tube containing 100 ml. This is quite a size and I guess it will last for a long time, until it is used up. If the product comes in a value set like here, it comes together with a brush to apply the pack on your face. I’m simply in love with the design of the tube already *_*

Kicho Camelia Sleeping Pack

The brush is very soft and has the perfect size to use it for covering your face. I love the golden handle of the brush and how it seems to be a good quality brush. It makes it easy to apply a thin layer on the face, and since the bristles are so soft they won’t irritate your skin.

Kicho Camelia Sleeping Pack

The sleeping pack itself is a thick yellow-ish colored cream with a flowery, rosy scent. It spreads nicely and builds a moist and glowy layer on the skin leaving the skin nourished. You will feel almost nothing of the cream because it is super light, despite containing so many nourishing ingredients.

Kicho Camelia Sleeping Pack

The Kicho Camellia Sleeping Pack is designed to moistzurize, sooth and protect the skin from toxins. After applying it on my skin I discovered that my skin looked calm and smooth the next morning. What I love especially is, that the texture is not sticky. So it is super comfortable to sleep with. Also, it is surprising that a thin layer already does a super great job. It seems even though using a small amount there are plenty of nutrients inside this pack.

Kicho Camelia Sleeping Pack

I’m SO happy that the Kicho Camelia Sleeping Pack is exactly how I imagined it to be: moisturizing, calming, nourishing…with a luxurious scent and beautiful packaging! Definitely recommend you to give it a try! You can get it as value pack like here, together with a brush, or only the pack. It retails for 53 US$ or 35 US$, respectively from the official Kicho web page. But it is also available on amazon here (it is also the official store from Kicho). Did you try any products from Kicho already? Do you use Lanolin containing skincare products?

Review: Klairs Rich Moist Soothing Serum

5. April 2017

If you are a reader of my blog for some time you might wonder about this review, since I already reviewed the Klairs Rich Moist Soothing Serum in the past. But time has passed and it has been renewed since then, so I wanted to have an updated review for this product. I can say that the brand Klairs has introduced me to some really awesome product, and for those with sensitive skin I can really recommend you to try the one or the other product from this brand. Okay, let’s go ahead with this review now:

Klairs Rich Moist Soothing Serum

Klairs is a Korean brand sold and by Wishtrend. It is eco-friendly, claiming to produce products which are animal-testing-free, alcohol-free, paraben-free, and artificial-color-free. Their products adress people with sensitive skin and people who want to moisturize their skin. I reviewed some of their products before, like the Klairs Freshly Juiced Vitamin C Serum or the Klairs Midnight Blue Cream, which both convinced me in their effects. I also love the Klairs Klairs Supple Preparation Facial Toner, which by the way has been updated and improved, too. The Klairs Rioch Moist Soothing Serum is part of the Klairs Rich Moist Soothing line of Klairs.

Klairs Rich Moist Soothing Serum

The renewed Klairs Rich Moist Soothing Serum comes – similar to the old version – packed in a cardboard box with a minimalist and simple design. It contains desription in English and Korean.  The product comes in a pump bottle, which is larger than the old version and also is made of a clear colored hard plastic. The volume is now 80 ml instead of the former 50 ml. I remember that this was my main downside for the product, because I used it up within a very short time back than. The clear bottle is also nicer to see how much serum is left in the bottle. The brown colored bottle of the old version made it also possible to see what is inside, but not as clearly as now.

Klairs Rich Moist Soothing Serum

The Klairs Rich Moist Soothing Serum is designed for moisturizing and soothing the skin with help of a rich blend of organic complexes. It contains the patented ingredient Phyto-Oligo, Hyaluronic Acid, Green Tea Extract, and beta-Glucan as key ingredients, but there are much more:

Water, Sodium Hyaluronate, Butylene Glycol, Dimethyl Sulfone, Betaine, Natto Gum, Propanediol, Polyquaternium-51, Disodium EDTA, Centella Asiatica Extract, Glycyrrhiza Glabra (Licorice) Root Extract, Carbomer, Arginine, PEG-60 Hydrogenated Castor Oil, Lysine HCL, Proline, Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate, Acetyl Methionine, Theanine, Chlorphenesin, Tocopheryl Acetate, Illicium Verum(Anise) Fruit Extract, Citrus Paradisi(Grapefruit) Fruit Extract, Nelumbium Speciosum Flower Extract, Paeonia Suffruticosa Root Extract, Scutellaria Baicalensis Root Extract, Panthenol, Luffa Cylindrica Fruit/Leaf/Stem Extract, Beta-Glucan, Althaea Rosea Flower Extract, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Extract, Lavandula Angustifolia (Lavender) Oil, Eucalyptus Globulus Leaf Oil, Pelargonium Graveolens Flower Oil, Citrus Limon (Lemon) Peel Oil, Citrus Aurantium Dulcis (Orange) Peel Oil, Cananga Odorata Flower Oil, Portulaca Oleracea Extract, Apium Graveolens (Celery) Extract, Brassica Oleracea Capitata (Cabbage) Leaf Extract, Brassica Oleracea Italica (Broccoli) Extract, Brassica Rapa (Turnip) Leaf Extract, Daucus Carota Sativa (Carrot) Root Extract, Oryza Sativa (Rice) Bran Extract, Solanum Lycopersicum (Tomato) Fruit/Leaf/Stem Extract

You can check the ingredients via COSDNA. I discovered that they have removed or replaced the doubtful ingredients from the first formulation, and now there are much less irritating ingredients and potential acne triggers included. 

Klairs Rich Moist Soothing Serum
Klairs Rich Moist Soothing Serum

Like with the old version I really love that the serum comes in a pump bottle. It makes it not only easier to apply, but also more hygienic. According to Wishtrend they also managed to enhance the absorption and texture of the serum. Since a long time has passed since I tried the old version it is now hard to tell for me.

Klairs Rich Moist Soothing Serum

The texture of the serum is still the same gel-type clear liquid. It feels cooling and moisturizing and even after absorbing you will feel the cooling effect of the serum on your skin. This is maybe one of the properties of this serum that make it very suitable for irritated and heated skin. You will really feel how it cools you down. It does not leave any finish, but simply is absorbed completelly. It is not sticky either. The scent is fresh, but fades quickly, so it should not be a problem for people that are sensitive to scents.

Klairs Rich Moist Soothing Serum

The cream retails for 22.99 US$ and contains 80 ml. It is available at Wishtrend and you will find all the information about the Klairs Rich Moist Soothing Serum >>here<<. Ah, and by the way, you can look up my other reviews on Klairs products >>here<<. Also keep in mind their friend-referral program: You can receive a 5 Us$ referral coupon if you use my invitation code 17939205 upon registration and you’ll receive this voucher immediately. There will be a specific field in your registration form called “friends invitation program” where you can put the code mentioned above. This way new customers can safe 5 US$ which is a great possibility to safe some money. also, Wishtrend has a Free-Shipping Area, were you can find products that can be bought with free shipping.

Do you use a serum in your skincare routine? What kind of serum do you use?
