3CE: Energy Mist

3CE has been coming out with lots of on trend and exciting make up and skincare. Recently they launch the Energy Mist which is one of their 3 new facial mist launches. The other include Glamour Mist and Honey Water Mist.

Facial mist are becoming more and more popular. I first encountered it when I was watching Secret Garden!! The actresses where all spraying facial mist so I went online to purchase my first facial mist. It just seemed like such a fun and refreshing concept. Facial mist are sprays which contains nutrients for the skin which can calm, soothe, refresh and replenish the skin. They can be quite handy to pack in your handbag during a hot summers days or just for refreshing your make up.

3CE Energy Mist is different from other facial mist as it has a gel like formula. It claims to contain fermented vitamin sorghun and hyaluronic acid. When sprayed on the face it gives a really cool and refreshing sensation as with any other facial spray but as the moisture becomes absorbed into the skin, the skin immediately looks more hydrated and plumper. My pores appear more refined and my skin appears nice and dewy. When used after make up as a setting spray it gives a really natural glow without looking oily. I really like the natural dewy finish this mist gives. It is especially good for using throughout the day or when your skin appears dull. There is not much scent to the product just a little fragrance but I feel like the scent is very soothing and relaxing.

I like to use the spray to set my make up as it gives a dewy finish. It also makes my foundation/ bb cream appear more thin and close to the skin giving a natural (no make up) look. For mid day touch up I blot my face with blotting sheets as I have oily skin then use this spray. Sometimes I apply some press powder on top and I'm ready to go again.

The only con I have about this product is the spray. I don't feel like the spray 'mist'. I feel like if the spray sprays more like a mist the product would be perfect. Its not a bad spray just need a few sprays at different angles to cover all areas of the face.

All and all I like the jelly texture of this spray and it provides a promising result for the skin. It's especially good for individuals who suffer from dry/ dull skin. If you are looking for a good facial mist I highly rate this mist.

SKINFOOD: Rice Mask Wash Off

HEYY GUYSSS!!!


This is going to be my first ever product review :D!! So excited to share my thoughts and feelings about beauty products finallyy!!! I'm gonna start off with a easy one.This product I'm going to share is highly raved about, maybe you already own it? But it's should be a staple product for ALL mankind!!! I've had this product for almost a year now and I definitely SWEAR by this product. It has got me through good and bad skin days and will forever remain in my skincare routine. It is........... theee Skinfood wash off rice mask!!!!!

Ok so Skinfood is a Korean brand which base their products on natural ingredients!! They have a variety of different lines such as wild berry, aloe vera, brocolli and snail mucus. They are extremely popular in Asia and specialise in skincare and cosmetics. All their products have really cute and natural packaging, which I adore!! Definiely a sucker for ALL Skinfood products ^.^

The rice masks is Skinfood's bestselling product. It comes in a tub with 100g of product. This product will actually last you for agesss btw!!! as stated on the product it is:


 "A wash-off mask containing rice extract that moisturizes skin and brightens tone. With its texture of ground rice, it leaves skin bright, soft and lustrous."


The rice granules will help lift off excess dirt and oil from the skin's surface which will keep the complexion clear and soft. No wonder, because rice grains contains a cleansing property which cleanses and tones the skin leaving the skin tighter with a vibrant healthy glow. Rice water can actually be used as a toner so remember next time your making rice don't throw away the precious rice water :P

Very smooth and creamy with fine rice granules

This product can be used on all skin type as the granules are very small and gentle. It has a creamy texture with only a light scent that is almost non- existent, which is perfect for sensitive skin. It easily glides on the face with no irritation caused by the fine exfoliating granules.

How to use: Preferably used at night when the skin is repairing. Apply a generous amount of the mask all over freshly cleansed face and wait for 1-2 minute for the product to sink in for maximum nutrient absorption . After, in gentle outwards and upwards motions massage the masks into the skin concentrating on areas more susceptible to dirt (blackheads round the nose) and avoid eye area. Wash off with lukewarm water then splash face several times with ice cold water to seal the pores. You should be left with soft, glowy skin :D YAY!!!. Then follow with normal skincare routine.

I usually like to use this mask at least once a week. I do although exfoliate my face 2-3 times a week using other products.This mask is actually so gentle that you can use it every other day without being too harsh, as some other products can be. After using this masks my skin always feels and looked renewed. I'll ALWAYS use this mask after a night out or a day I wake up with dull and dry skin. Don't you just hate them days. Now with this product I'm bound to never encounter them lifeless skin days!!! HOOORAYYY!!! Skin is smoother, make up wears better and my confidence is sky high!! Nothing beats that feeling!!
