Anastasia Beverly Hills Dipbrow Pomade Review

hello girls..~~ how are u guys?? hope everyone is ok.. today i want to review about a trending product on internet, yes u know it!! it's Anastasia Beverly Hills Dipbrow Pomade, i want to try it ever since i saw this product on instagram..!! it's so expensive for eyebrow products but i interested in it because it's smudgeproof and waterproof, who doesn't love that??!! i got oily skin so my eyebrow is easily get removed, usually it happened accidentally removed by my hand or my nephew.. boohoo.....=(

so i'm eager to try this one and manage to save up my money and finally bought it from @rosebellecosmetics ..!! yay..~~ ok let's start the review..!!

so of course the first one is the packaging (8/10):



i got no bad comments on the packaging, i love the color combination which are black and gold.. the jar is made from a solid glass, simple yet classy design.. LOVE it..!!<3

and now i will show u what is written on the box, such as the ingredients and the explanation :

ingredients

explanation


now is the jar look, i choose the chocolate color.. this product weight is 4 grams..  :





i got to say that this product has similar texture like eyeliner gel, the difference is when you apply it on the skin, the product create a smooth texture and color so you can build up the intensity..
to apply this dipbrow pomade, i use a small angle brush, make sure the brush is thin so you can create a precise shape for your eyebrow..



now the pros about this product are :

- smooth texture and color
- easy to build up the color
- doesn't draggy
- waterproof, i take a shower and my eyebrows still there..!!

the cons are :

- i have to apply it carefully and slowly because once i make a mistake, it's hard to remove by cotton bud, it did gone but i can see a brown track on my skin
- doesn't suitable if you are in hurry, because like point one, you have to apply it carefully
- for me the color is too dark, i see the color charts and this chocolate color looks like light brown but when i try it, it's more like dark brown
- for oily skin like me, this product still smudge.. i left my face for hours without touch up, so of course my face become oily again then i rub my eyebrow lightly with my finger, and the tail of my eyebrow is gone.. but if u put it on dry skin like on our hand, u can rub it as hard as u can and the color stay there, not smudgy.. but it's not as easy to wiped out like pencil so i still like this one..

well, i have to put a layer of browcara on it because like i said the color is too dark for me..


results

i give this product (7/10),
because it's still waterproof althought it's smudgy for my oily skin.. but till i find another product that suits oily skin, i like this one better than eyebrow pencil..!! now the question is did i want to buy this product again?? YES, just because the staying power is better than pencil and i need that kind of long lasting product..

oh and the principle of drawing the eyebrow is the same with my tutorial, you only subtitute the eyebrow pencil with angle brush and dipbrow pomade.. if you haven't seen it click this link for my eyebrow tutorial..

thank you for reading my blog, hope my post will help you guys.. see you and good luck..!!<3

Kiss Skincare Mineral Aqua Mud Foam Review

hello everyone..!! how are you today?? i hope u guys do well..!! today i want to continue my review from Kiss Skincare, which is Mineral Aqua Mud Foam..!! you can see my first review about Kiss Skincare Whitening Collagen Mask on this link ..~~ i buy this 2 when they have a package promo, i interested in both products, so why not?? it's a perfect opportunity to try 'em out.. you can get these products from @kissindonesia .. 

Kiss Skincare Mineral Aqua Mud Foam function are :

- cleansing whitehead
- cleansing blackhead/comedones
- brightening
- cleansing face from dirts, oil, etc..



whoaaa... is it really can remove whitehead and blackhead?? let's find out then shall we??=D

start from the packaging (from now on i will rate each product packaging with number, 10 is the highest..)

front

back (explanation and ingredients)
i rate this packaging (7/10)

i don't really like the choice of color, it's too grey-ish for me.. i know it's a mud foam but that doesn't mean that the packaging color should be look muddy, that's my opinion.. but the fonts and image choice are good..

now for the inside :





i rate it (9/10)

i love the bottle..!! with blue clear plastic cap with comfortable big pump.. and i thought that the printing on the bottle body is a paper and will be ruined after i touch it with my wet hand, guess what? it's not a paper..!! because all i know is company usually print them directly on the plastic body and this one not.. i'm pretty shock especially the "Kiss Skincare Mineral Aqua Mud Foam" words are embossed..<3

how to use it :

- first, u can use it as regular face wash.. and i use a little, it can cover my whole face..
- second, u can use it as a mask, i like to use it on dry face, put it on and leave it for 3 minutes.. but for this product, u can use it everyday because it's basically a foam and used for daily basis..




yes the color is black at first, but after you applying it on your face, the color will change to grey.. especially if you use it as a mask.. and what i love about this product is it contains so little bubbles..!! if u have read my skincare post, u will know that less bubbles mean less drying on ur face a.k.a mild cleanser.. yes it's true, so try to check ur facial wash product if it contains tons of bubbles, because ur acne and oily skin problem probably start from there.. because more bubbles take all of the oil from our skin and ur brain will think "oh there's not enough oil on face area, i should produce more..!!" and BAM..!! more oily skin and acnes problems..

the positive (+) things about this product :

- doesn't dry my face
- smells like ocean
- contains a little bubbles
- make my face feel so smooth after wash
- i only use a little of it and it can cover all of my face, so saving up more

the negative (-) things about this product :

- i don't think it get rid my comedones but probably i have to use longer, i know skincare product doesn't give an instant result, so yeah i'm still waiting
- i don't know about whitehead, because i don't see any changes too..!!

i guess that's my contraindication things on this product.. no offense though, because this just only my opinions.. but overall i will rate this product (8/10)..

did i want to buy this product again?? YES, it's hard for me to find a mild cleanser.. my favourite for this kind of cleanser are body shop seaweed cleansing gel, hadalabo facial foam, and now this one, Kiss Skincare Mineral Aqua Mud Foam..

thank you for reading my blog, ask me any questions on comment below if u have one.. good luck and see you on my next post..!! have a nice day..~~

oh what is my blog without selfie?? so here you go.. enjoy.. lol..<3
