Spring into Beauty: BDJ Box Items Review


I was excited to try all the items in my box so I used as much as I could for a day and here's a short review.

Bath Essentials

First I used Asian Secrets whitening Facial and Body scrub. Note that they have to be applied on dry skin so it feels a bit weird at first. They both smell nice and they contain a lot of lulur beads which help exfoliate dead skin cells and whiten skin. The facial wash contains finer beads than the body scrub but you can still feel the scrubbing effect.
After rinsing, I used the My Choice Pure Herbal Soap in Watermelon variant. The soap is like a gel with cute thingies inside. It helps protect your skin from pollution and sun damage.

After that refreshing bath, my skin feels soft and moisturized.


Foot Mask

Next I tried the Tony Moly Intense Care Snail Foot Mask. The instructions were in Hangul and I can't find one online so yeah whatever. Snail Foot Mask. Snail. Slimy. I haven't tried any product with snail extracts because I think it's gross and slimy but apparently snail extracts "contains natural acids and elastin that’ll improve appearance and protect skin from future damage" according to an article I've read.
The package contains 2 big socks like plastics.


Inside the plastic, there's a wet cloth which I assume contains the snail extracts. So be sure to put your foot inside the cloth.

And as expected, it feels slimy..really slimy.. <cringes> (~_~) Leave it for 20 minutes.

Cosmetics

While waiting, I tried another item from Tony Moly, the Luminous Glow Aura CC (Color Control) Cream.

It has a very light color but CC Creams are supposed to blend to the color of your skin
After blending

So I tried it on, it doesn't show but it has a grayish cast and doesn't really blend well with my skin color. I don't know but I think it's too light for me. I then set it with my favorite pixie foundation and applied some eyeliner and blush.

Next we have the Revlon Highlighting Palette and the FS Cosmetics Lash Extravagance Mascara.

The mascara wand looks weird, rubbery, it reminds me of a bouncy jelly bean XD Anyway I feel like I get too much product with the wand causing my lashes to clump so I think I'm giving this one away.

The Revlon Highlighting Palette on the other hand is really nice and very pigmented. Looks nice on the skin too. :)

After removing the foot mask. Just by looking at this picture you can see how slimy it was.


Finished product. See? Too light.

But it didn't stop me from taking some selfies here and there XD

 







So that's pretty much it. Again thanks to BDJ Box for these wonderful treats. ^_^
