Tweet There’s nothing like a beauty product that fills you with confidence; so if you have the skin problem of ‘blackheads’ what can be nicer than using a range called ‘Pig-Nose Clear’. Ouch. “Wow, your skin is looking great! What have you been using on it?” “Er….Pig-Nose” But you know what? I see this as an Asian mother thing. Asian (Chinese) mothers are very good at the appearance based put downs, so I think of Holika Holika’s Pig-Nose Clear range {Read More}
Tweet Japanese and Korean brands constantly come up with new product ranges and the most ridiculous names. What is Mineral Scaling? Sounds like something a builder would do to the roof. “Right love…your roof…it’s not good news, you’re gonna need mineral scaling…” Alas, I was curious. Holika Holika skincare is packaged so nicely, however I’ve yet to find a Korean skincare product I’d call essential. Pore care in Asia is big news; maybe it’s the climate plus oily skin or {Read More}
Tweet I am a simple kinda girl when it comes to face masks (or maybe just generally?!) – although I have tons of sheet masks, I realised I didn’t really use them because you have to stay pretty still when wearing them…and I’m not so good at that! So have been using more wash off masks when I have the time for a pamper. The quicker and more efficient a mask is the better. A recent purchase is this Holika {Read More}
Tweet I am addicted to pencil eyeliners – I really am. Even if I don’t do eyeshadow, I will do a bit of eyeliner just to perk up the eye. I am obsessed with creamy gel type pencil liners because they are so easy to use! Korean brands are always releasing new ones that tempt me (I have lots of other ones to review!). Holika Holika have released these Jewel Light Waterproof Eyeliners – I have purchased their old eyeliners {Read More}
Tweet Did I tell you I don’t seem to have time to do face masks anymore? Not even sheet masks because it’s hard to move around when you have one on! Nevertheless, I finally found some time to test out the numerous face masks I keep ordering from eBay. Holika Holika’s Medi Medi range consists of 3 treatment face masks for different issues; Acne, Magnesium (for pores and excess oil) and one has Vitamin C (for brightening). I chose the {Read More}
Tweet Now this is an interesting product! Holika Holika’s UV Magic Shield Stick is a Eye Brightening SPF stick. It is supposed to brighten, of course, and provide a whopping SPF50 is sun protection. Sounds like a good idea to me – if the sun is the cause of mucho ageing then it’s a good idea to keep the eye area protected. Here it is – only 18g but it’ll last: Do you use SPF around the eye area? I {Read More}
Tweet I don’t know about you, but having sensitive and dry skin means that many, many cleansers leave my skin feeling tight after washing. I find this problem when I use foaming face washes and cleansing oils the most. The only facial wash that doesn’t leave me with any tightness at all is Neutrogena, and the only cleansing oil that leaves me with no tightness is Fancl! Otherwise, I expect some ‘tautness’ after washing. It’s not the end of the {Read More}
Tweet Holika Holika, one of my current hot brands from Korea has newish range of Sleeping Masks (what is a sleeping mask?) based on the power of Honey, honey. Sleeping packs are worn throughout the night as you sleep and the idea is that you can wake up in the morning and look like you’re 10 years younger…or there abouts. Kitty is demonstrating how to sleep: Holika Holika’s Honey Sleeping Pack comes in 3 variations’ Canola, Blueberry and Acerola. Each {Read More}
