I was running out of my current cleanser (the Nature Republic Green Tea Deep Cleanser) and I did not have the time to order a new one so instead I went to my local supermarket trying to find one that would not be over PH 7. Since low PH cleanser tend to foam less they often come in self foaming bottle, so when I saw this Nivea cleanser made for sensitive skin, I thought I might as well try it out. If I remember well it was under 6€ which is pretty cheap.
I was looking for a cost-effective serum, I was not disappointed.
Packaging
The packaging is pretty basic, nothing much to say about it. However for some unknown reason, although both bottle are the exact same somehow the Apple Cleansing oil was leaking the whole time I used it at the base of the pump. Ugh, WHY. I could have transferred the remaining oil into the other bottle but I didn't, I'm just THAT lazy.
Before I start with the review I would like to apologize if this review ends up being a comparison between this cream and the Mizon one. The truth is : once you have found your holy grail, you just can't avoid comparing every single cream to it. Moreover the creams are very close in terms of ingredients, aims and claims so it was inevitable that I would compare them. I hope you will like my review anyway.
Hello everybody!!
I think I can say I have found my Holy Grail product for creams!! I'm so sad I just finished the bottle.

| Whamisa Organic Flowers Cleansing Oil |
Reading different beauty blogs you discover new brands almost every week (or at least new products but that's another story). And anything new sounds appealing to me. But I’ve tried lately to only buy a product when I’m almost done with one so that I don’t have dozens of “to be used” products awaiting in the bathroom cupboard. So when I heard of Whamisa several months ago I just waited patiently, if I had listened to myself I would have bought about 5 products from the brand, the oil, one of their serum, probably a face cream, one sheet masks and so on. And then I finished my cleansing oil and was very happy to order this one.
I'm going to do mini reviews of the few Etude House items that I bought recently

WHAT IT CLAIMS TO DO
"New concept eyebrow gel tint that makes eyebrows makeup last longer after removing the tint." So basically it is the same concept as the Berissom Lip tint except you leave it for 2 hours instead of 10 minutes and it lasts for days instead of one. I was already sold when I first saw the lip tints so I was sold when I saw this for my eyebrows. I saw nowhere how long it would stay on so I guess that will be a surprise!
We divided this month's sheet masks into 2 categories: The tops and the bad.
What we tried:
- Pure Smile Peach Essence Mask
- Mizon Enjoy Vital-Up Time Watery Moisture Mask
- The Qure Collagen Essence Mask
- Adin Collagen Essence Mask
- Klairs Rich Moist Soothing Sheet Mask
- Talika Bio Enzymes Purifying Mask
- Food A Holic 3D Natural Essence Mask in green tea and blueberry
What it claims to do?
"With its refreshing green tea scent and fortified by 3,000 mg of organically grown Boseong green tea extracts, The Face Shop's Waterfull Serum instantly drenches skin with moisture while calming complexion and controlling sebum production. Formulated without artificial coloring, benzophenone, mineral oil, animal-derived materials and alcohol."

| Original Pure Vitamin C20 Serum |
I first saw
this serum on Wishtrend attracted by the "Free shipping", the "40% off", the fact
that it was a bestselling item and the awards it has received I thought that
for the price I could try it, worst that would happen would be that I did not
like it but then 14.99$ would not be that much of a loss.
I received samples when I ordered at Beautynetkorea.com. The amount of samples they send me is ridiculous, not that I mind, I LOVE samples. Keep in mind that I can only speak about the immediate effects / impressions, since real effets can only appear with time.
