description at the back and inside the box

the packaging: it comes in a dusty blue box with description at the back as well as the ingredients list. they also put additional information on the inside of the box, which is similar to elsheskin and dearmebeauty. i guess it's kind of the trend right now. the toner comes in frosted plastic bottle with the same colored label as the box. it has dusty blue screw cap. the opening is covered by a plastic cover at first. the size of the opening is the same as other toner bottle. there are 3 sizes available, 30 ml, 100 ml and 270 ml. the first one is the 100 ml which is the usual toner size, which i have right now. then they release the travel size which is 30 ml. then since people love it so much, they release the gigantic size, 270 ml one. 

seal on top, the plastic cover at first and the opening of the bottle

the scent: it doesn't have any specific scent but it doesn't smell foul either. 

the bottle

the product: the toner is a milky white watery toner. the consistency is as watery as water but it doesn't feel like one. since the consistency is really watery, it's very quick to absorbed. once it's absorbed, it doesn't feel sticky but you can feel your skin is moist afterward. looking at the ingredients, there are lots of moisturizing and hydrating ingredients as well as a few soothing agent and brightening one. 

the result: if the other product fills in the gap then make it full, this toner is different. once it's absorbed, it makes the skin cells feel plump instantly. i can feel that it makes my skin pump instantly and well moisturized. it doesn't make it tacky afterward so i can still put other products on top without any problems. 

i thought this would be too rich for me, but perhaps because of the watery consistency, it's absorbed rather quickly into my skin. so far i'm liking it. even though i have combination to oily skin, this one gives enough hydration and moisture that my skin needs since i've been using retinol and BHA on daily basis now. i don't experience any dryness or anything since i use this. i think it'll be more suitable to normal to dry skin, but like i said, i think even combination to oily skin can still try this toner. there are 3 sizes to choose from, so if you're not sure, you can try the smallest size first, then if you like it so much, you can always go for the giant size. price wise, it's still affordable though but i'm not fond of the availability. these products are being hyped for so long that it's often sold out for so long. at least the probiome one is easier to find than the other one. anyway, snatch them while you can. you can get this from their official website/ marketplace and also from other online shops like sociolla and beautyhaul. for me, i'll try the other type first before dropping my verdict. 

this is the description from their website: 2-in-1 cushion foundation and luminous concealer compact. a lightweight, medium-full coverage, anti-aging cushion foundation with a beauty-enhancing, skin-calming and youth boosting concealer all in one effortless compact. 

the packaging: it comes in a greyish/lilac combination box with description at the back and the shade name on top of the box. they use white font which is not easy to read. maybe they should change to black so it's easier to read. the box is quite bulky because the compact itself is bulky. the cushion comes in light pink plastic compact that's bulkier than the usual cushion compacts because this is a 2-in-1 product. the color of the compact is really pretty and it uses magnetic closure so it's safer. i think the closure will last longer if they use magnetic closure. inside, there's a mirror and on top compartment, there's a puff. you can lift the top compartment to reveal the concealer pan on the second compartment. then underneath, there's the usual cushion, covered with a sticker at first. you can read the shade name at the back of the compact. the cushion comes in 15 g while the concealer is 7 g. 

the shade: the downside of a small brand is, they don't offer many shades. there are only 5 shades to choose from. i'm pretty sure it won't cater everyone, but luckily the lightest shade still works for me. they named the cushion and the concealer separately, for mine, ecru is the cushion while porcelain is the concealer. for the concealer, it looks similar to my skintone when i swatched it on my hand. but for the cushion, it's slightly a bit darker than my somethinc perle cushion. but i can still make it work. the tone is different as well. ecru is even more pink on my hand. 

the product: the concealer feels emollient on my touch. it's hard to pick up the product with the sponge. i have to swirl my finger several times to get the decent amount of product and tap it on troubled areas on my face. the concealer is the glowy type that's a bit moisturizing. i think it'll be okay for acne or under eyes areas as they won't accentuate dry patches. however, it's more brightening than covering. it couldn't cover acne properly, but it helps reduce redness around acnes. as for the cushion, i honestly don't know what to expect. i only make sure that the shade could work on me without knowing anything else. anyway, the cushion has medium to full coverage. even one puff is enough for my whole face and my skin looks flawless. i'm not used to that much coverage, so i lessen the pressure and only use maybe half puff for daily. 

the result: the shade is not on the spot matching my skintone, but it still works okay. it gives glowy finish but as usual, nothing that powder can't fix. however, it settles around dry skin so make sure to moisturize your skin well. since the concealer is not high coverage, somehow it doesn't help much if i use it on top of the cushion. i still play with how i can work around with the concealer, but it's a bit disappointing that it doesn't deliver like the cushion.

i have to say that i'm impressed with the packaging and i love the cushion as well. i'm impressed with the coverage and i don't mind the glowy finish. but it's a bit let down that the concealer doesn't deliver. i wish it gives more coverage than the current coverage. price wise, it might look expensive but it's a 2-in-1 product, so naturally it will cost more than usual cushion. personally i won't mind with the cushion, but i guess i won't repurchase since the whole purpose of buying the product is the added concealer, but it doesn't deliver. so i guess if they doesn't change the coverage, maybe i'll just stick to regular cushion and buy a separate concealer. 

the box

this is the description from their website: a multi-use cream bronzer stick that creates an instant sunkissed glow with a natural-looking matte finish. formulated with hydrating ingredients for buildable, blendable color that can be used for a soft-sculpted contour or for adding subtle warmth. this product is vegan, clean, cruelty free, paraben free, and gluten free.

descriptions on the box right: shade name on top

the packaging: it comes in white box with description at the back and shade name on top. the bronzer stick comes in white plastic tube with double transparent cap, one exactly on top of the stick to cover the dome of the bronzer stick, and the other one to cap the whole stick. i ditched the one on top of the dome though since it's quite troublesome to put it back on and pull it off every time i use it. i hope it won't make it dry quicker though... anyway, the cap is a screw cap one so it's more secure especially if you bring it with you anywhere. i just hope it won't break though. the old bronzer stick was 28 g but the mini size one is just 5,7 g. 

the bronzer stick

the color: there are only 2 shade options, baked and blaze. i bought baked which is lightest one. it works okay for me, even though at first swipe it looks dark on my face, but once blended, it looks okay.

the additional cap protection on top of the bronzer dome

the product: the bronzer is stick is creamy enough to use directly on my face and it's quite pigmented that the first swipe looks quite dark. it glides easily on my face. let's hope it doesn't dry much after i ditch the dome cover (like my runa beauty one. it's dried out completely now that it's almost crumble when i use my finger to swipe over it). i can use my finger, my brush or sponge to blend it, but i like brushes more as it's quicker. 

arm swatch

the result: once blended, it looks natural. i can really use it as bronzer and contour. however, i never try it as eyeshadow or lip color, so i can't say anything about it. it turns matte once it's set but i still set it with powder anyway. as for longevity, i can't say for sure since i don't use makeup for long now, but i'll keep you updated. 

i'm super happy that i finally can try this bronzer. it's been in my wish list forever, so i'm glad that i finally can try it. plus now it comes in mini size, so i hope i can really use it up now. this is my second high end brand that i bought, though my siblings have been kind enough and gifted me those at the end, so i'm glad that they're really worth it. availability is a bit suck as not all sephora carried milk makeup. but you can rejoice if you live in the US as they're widely available there. 

this is the description from their website: special collaboration with stephanie rose. this eye cheek you pot is a soft dusty rose, buttery cream blush and eyeshadow stuffed with moisturizing ingredients, such as sunflower seed oil, rosehip oil, and shea butter. comes with compact case with mirror, cream to powder formula, and travel friendly size, eye cheek you pot lets you create beauty on the go. 

hero ingredients:

- sunflower seed oil: an emollient that softens the skin while also being occlusive too, by locking the skin's natural moisture.

- rosehip oil: has soothing properties and acts an antioxidant.

- shea butter: a sublime emollient that makes eye cheek you pot glides easier on the skin.

the packaging: it comes in a pink box with rainbow hologram at front. they put the shade name on the bottom. at the back, there's a short description and ingredients list. the blush itself comes in a plastic compact. it has pink lid and transparent body. there's mirror inside. unfortunately, it still use the closure and not magnetic one. i hope it still holds up until i finish it. it comes in 2 gr size. 

the color: at first there are 4 shades available, peony flush (pink), sunset boulevard (orange/peachy), nutcracker (nude/brownish), mars (brick red). then they make collab with stephanie rose and this shade is added. it's a soft dusty rose which looks mauvy pink to me. a bit darker pink than peony flush.

the product: the cream blush is emollient on the pan. it's smooth and buttery on the touch. i can use my finger or my brush to apply this. it's easier to swirl your finger or brush on the pan since it's more emollient compared to runa. runa feels a bit dry so it's quite hard to pick up. 

the result: this one is cream to powder, so once it's set, it feels powdery. but not as dry as the runa one. that being said, you need to set this with powder to make it long lasting. the color is quite vibrant so a little goes a long the way. though you can pat it if you use too much. anyway, since i don't wear makeup for a long time, i can't say how long this blush can hold on, but i guess not that long. but i don't mind. if you don't put powder on top, this looks a bit glowy but not too much. just like the healthy glow? 

i like this one better than runa. maybe because it reminds me of canmake cream blush that i used to like? anyway, i only like this shade though, so maybe if they run out of this one, i might not purchase the other shade. i have my eyes on rare beauty cream blushes, so i might not repurchase this one for awhile. not until i run out of options. price wise, it's affordable and sometimes they hold sales, so wait until it's on sale if you're patient. 

this is the description from their website: splash! feel as fresh as a mermaid princess. powerful, yet delectably moist. SPF 50+/PA++++. smooth gel without that roughness or stickiness characteristic of most sunscreens. recommended for those who prefer a light, refreshing sunscreen. splash it on like a facial lotion - also serves as a makeup base. gel breaks down into a watery texture as you smooth it over your skin. after using face wash, this is all you need for complete skincare and UV protection. can also be used after your usual facial lotion and other skincare products. serves as a moisturizing makeup base with UV protection. infuses your skin with moisture, helping your foundation to sit better and last longer. use it on your body, as well as your face. skincare gel with 85% beautifying ingredients. easily portable tube format. sunscreen is most effective when reapplied frequently. comes in an easily portable tube that makes it simple to adjust the amount you apply, so it's perfect for reapplying sunscreen when you're out and about. 

3 colors: clear, white, green.

the packaging: it comes in a transparent plastic box with description on it in japanese and probably ingredients list. the tube is silver/grey plastic tube with white screw cap. the color of the label is the one that differentiate between the clear, white and green one. for the clear one, the label is pink. while the white one the label is white, while the green one is the most different one. the bottle is light green as well as the label. but you can also see the number. sadly, this only comes in 40g.

the color: as i've said, there are 3 colors, clear, white and green. mine is the clear one, which is number 01. so look at the number at the back as well. the white one is supposed to be toned up one, while the green one is to reduce redness.

the product: it's a white cream one and quite thick compared to the other sunscreen that i've used before this. even though they say that it's a sunscreen gel, somehow it doesn't feel like one. luckily, it spreads around easily. at first, it leaves white cast but it goes away after awhile. 

the result: i have to say that i'm impressed. it doesn't leave white cast (at least on me. but i have light to fair skin, so if you have darker skin, you might want to check first before buying it). it dries down matte without any funky sparkling tiny glitter whatsoever. as for protection, it works okay since i don't experience sunburn or anything. anyway, it's a bit moisturizing as well but with the right moisturizer, it works okay even under makeup.

i'm quite surprise that makeup brand can release a good sunscreen. but then again, it's a japanese brand. so far, only one or two japanese sunscreen that failed me, so it's no wonder then. anyway, the price is really affordable in japan. i wish it's the same case abroad. too bad the price sometimes doubled abroad. i'd like to repurchase it if i ever go back to japan. for now, i'll resort to local sunscreen after i finish my stash.
