REVIEW: VOV Pure Black Charcoal Pack

Hello all! Today, i will be doing a review on VOV pure black charcoal pack! I had pictures of the product but i accidentally deleted the pics off my pc soo.. -.- 
It is the one in green! and counting down, i just have a few more products to review! :D 


anyways, i purchased this item from sasa.com and unfortunately, it is out of stock lol.

Here is the info as quoted from sasa.com 
"
description
VOV Daily Fresh Mini Pack (Pure Black Charcoal Pack) is a peel-off type pack that controls sebum, gently exfoliates and clears away waste materials. It leaves skin clear and fair. 

how to use it
  1. Apply a sheer layer of mask to face, avoiding area round eyes, eyebrows and hairline.
  2. Allow it to dry.
  3. Lift up a corner under the chin and peel off lightly in an upward motion.
  4. Splash face with cool water to remove any residue. "

This product was LOADS better than the VOV apple mask i reviewed a while back. 

A word of caution though...it was VERY sticky and gooey. 
Okay, well upon opening the bag, i made sure to rub the package a bit just in case the mask hardened over sitting in my shelf for a long period of time. I felt lumps when i was rubbing the package lol. 

Honestly, the package had enough to cover my whole face, but i wasnt really sure if i should have applied the mask thickly or thinly on my face lol -.- turns out i ended up putting way too much on my cheeks and they took AGES to dry lol -.- 

I think the best way to know if you put enough of the mask on areas of your face is that if you cant really see your skin anymore but its not so thick that when you touch it, you can smear off a lot of the mask. Kind of hard to describe, i think you have to personally test it out a few times to know the correct amounts.  

Smell: the smell of the charcoal was quite pleasant. It didn't smell bad, so i thought it was okay. 

BEWARE BELOW. PICS OF MY INEXPERIENCED MASK APPLICATION...lol 








Well, as you can see, the distribution of my mask is really uneven lol. I mainly just wanted it on my cheeks and nose area though so i ended up not having enough for my forehead. 

another word of caution again : THIS MASK IS REALLY REALLY STICKY. its best to keep your hair out of the way or else it'll stick really badly to your mask later on lol. 

Okay so i think it takes around 15-30 minutes for the mask to dry, depending on how thick or thin the mask was applied on areas of your face. I sped up the process by sitting in front of a fan. 
it took me around 10-15 minutes? but in the end my cheeks never dried and i made a mess lol -.- 

Here are the skins. i really wanted to show what it pulled out, but it was really hard to see. It pulled out a lot of peach fuzz on my face as well as some dead skin. Not bad :D 



Removing the mask was pretty simple as well. the mask peels off easily once it is dry. it isn't painful either. 

if you have some charcoal on your face remaining later on because it didn't dry completely when you removed it or whatsoever, try to take it off with a toner. if you use water, that's fine, but it'll take longer and it'll smear lol. 


I have always been a fan of peels, but i think they take up way too much time :/ They were fun though but i dont think i will buy it again lol.

REVIEW: Daiso Deep H Moisture Gel: Hyaluronic Acid

Hello all! Once again, it is time for another review! ^^ 40 G or approx. 1.4 FL OZ made in vietnam  Instructions:  Apply proper amount of gel cream on face after washing.  how it looks As you can see, i already used up a good amount of the bottle. it is very similar to the collagen gel in terms of color, texture and smell. If i remember correctly though, this smells a bit more sour than the collagen one.  once again, daiso has very vague descriptions as to what the product does and i only made out moisture lol. I really wanted to know more and what exactly hyaluronic acid is so i googled it.  according to some webpages, hyaluronic acid is used for wounds, burns, moisturizers and etc., we also create hyaluronic acid in our bodies! the things you learn! anyways, another website stated that it is for preventing wrinkles.  I'm not entirely sure if this Daiso product is effective, i have been using it daily for 1+ week recently and honestl

REVIEW: Differentiating Between AUTHENTIC and FAKE Chanel Fragrance

Hi All, today I will be doing a review on AUTHENTIC vs FAKE Chanel Fragrances .  As a disclaimer , I DO NOT claim to be an expert in authenticating Chanel fragrances. These are all based on my own research and personal experience.  Please take a look at pictures of this No 5 Chanel Perfume that I bought off Ebay.  Just by looking at the BOX itself, everything actually looks pretty good. I even received this item BRAND NEW, with the clear plastic wrap on it. BUT, it is actually a FAKE. surprise!  Now, let's look at the perfume bottle. I have circled some of the issues with the bottle.  INDICATOR #1 OF A FAKE PERFUME:  Take a look at the base of this bottle. It is uneven. on the authentic, it should be symmetrical on both ends.  The cap is LOOSE. I am unable to show this on the photo, but the cap comes right off and does not snap onto the bottle.  I can't say much about the smell because I haven't smelled t

REVIEW: Deep C Moisture Gel, Collagen + Reply to Comments Received!

Hello all! This is a reply to the comments i have received as well as a quick review. I managed to squeeze in some time right now to post here haha.  First off, I was asked a question about the Q10 Milky Lotion that I reviewed and stated that I would get back to the person who asked if this product was safe on the face. To be honest, I only tried it on my face for about 3 days, because I totally forgot about it the remainder of the days. Sorry! >-< BUT, yes it is safe on the face . it actually makes your face quite soft and smooth too! I actually used it with the Q10 Moisture Lotion (which i have not reviewed yet), and I'm guessing that serves somewhat as a toner to keep your face moist.  Secondly, I received a comment by Mandy today and I would love to reply here in this post! Thank you very much for the praise! I am glad that my reviews are convincing and are helpful to you! Your comment has made me very happy, along with others who have sent me comments
