Review: Elishacoy's Vita Capsule Cleanser


Hi, guys! I'm back after a long break lol. Well, today I'm gonna review a new Korean product. This time is Elishacoy's Vita Capsule Cleanser. I tried the 4ml presentation just to give it a try. It lasted me for four uses. Well, let's read the statements of this product, first:

Description:
Silky foam eliminates dirt, makeup residue, and unnecessary dead skin cells from skin and 10 different complex vitamin capsules provide nourishment for healthy and refreshed skin tone. “Vita Capsule Cleanser” to cleanse pores and to improve skin complexion. Perfect cleansing! Nourishing cleanser will provide energy and vitality for fatigued skin! 

  • 10 different vitamin complex (Vita Complex – 10) capsules break gently when using the 3D Spin Cleaner. They cleanse and provide vitamins to skin for healthy and vital skin tone. 
  • Contains soap leaf and root extract which creates foam just like soap, to develop silky foam as soft and rich as fresh cream each time the 3D Spin Cleaner rotates. Soft bubbles cover skin to gently eliminate dirt lodged in pores while exfoliating dead skin cells, leaving skin soft and beautiful. 
  • Ceramide 3 and aloe vera leaf juice that protect skin provide moisture to dull and fatigued skin so skin is soft and smooth after cleansing, without the sensation of tightness or dryness. 
  • Rich and soft bubbles like fresh cream lower skin irritation, and provide perfect cleansing even when used along with 3D spin cleaner.


How to use:
Step 1: Wet palms and create lather.
Step 2: Meticulously massage through skin and rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water.

Review:
I used it for four times, so I think I kind of know how to use this cleanser. I followed the instruccions but it didn't remove completely my makeup (just BBcream). I still had to  take the rest of makeup with a cotton pad so I wouldn't say it's so effective. Plus it leaved my skin dry. And my skin type is oily so I wouldn't recommend it for dry skin people. But I also have to say that this is recommended to use it with 3D Spin cleaner, so maybe that's way the cleanser didn't work out that much. 

The way to apply is is very easy, and fun to do I must say. It has a little kind of scent, but nothing bothersome. It feels nice when appylying it and like 1 hour later after rinsing. Inmediately after applying it, like I said, kind of dries your skin.

So I give this product:

♔♔  /  ♔♔♔♔♔

I think I will look for some cleanser that will moisturize my face better. Plus it's not so cheap. A bottle of 80ml is 15$ on ebay and I think I can get something better for that price. Anyway, tell me if you found this review helpful or if you have tried this before and how was it. I would love to hear.

Bye~

Review: Toallitas desmaquillantes refrescantes - Nivea


¡Hola! Hoy les traigo otro review, y como este producto es para mercado hispanoamericano, lo haré en español. Se trata de las toallitas desmaquillantes refrescantes de Nivea - Aqua effect con fórmula mejorada para piel normal. El empaque dice:

-Las toallitas con Hydra IQ limpian efectivamente y remueven el maquillaje y la máscara de pestañas a prueba de agua.
-Humectan y refrescan la piel
-Su formula con vitamina E suaviza la piel

Modo de Uso: Limpie suavemente el rostro, cuello y ojos con una toallita desmaquillante manteniendo los ojos cerrados. Después de usar, cierre cuidadosamente la bolsa con la etiqueta adhesiva para evitar que las toallitas se sequen.

El paquete trae 25 toallitas.


Al parecer también hay una versión de este producto para otros países, pero la composición o al menos los ingredientes y la fórmula varía. Bueno, algo que me pareció gracioso fue que pese a que todo el empaque está en español, los fabricantes no se tomaron la molestia de traducir los ingredientes del producto.

Con respecto al producto y a las funciones que clama:

-Sí remueve eficazmente el maquillaje. Una toallita debería de ser suficiente, incluso a veces cuando no llevo muy cargado el maquillaje, corto las toallitas y así ahorro.

-Si me dejó la cara humectada y suave luego del uso, aunque no tan refrescante, la siento un poco grasosa.

Así que le doy a estas toallitas un total de 4/5.

Aunque me agradó que me quitara todo el maquillaje, no me gustó el olor que tiene. Parece como si tuviese un tipo de alcohol. Incluso al principio dudé en usar las toallas por miedo a que me irrite la piel. Además, se siente un poco tosco cuando te frotas la cara con la toallita mucho tiempo, cuando se seca, cuando está húmeda se siente bien.

¿Compraría de nuevo? Probablemente no. Este producto es algo caro en comparación con otras toallitas desmaquilladoras, me costaron 14 soles (5$ aprox) y solo me dura/durará máximo 2 meses (recortando toallitas). Así que creo que buscaré opciones más económicas y otras que no sean tan fuertes para mi piel.

Gracias por leer :)

St. Ives Make-up remover and Facial Cleanser Review

Today I'm going to review St. Ives Fresh Skin Make-up remover & Facial cleanser. I must say I've been using this in a daily basis until I ran out of it and I'm telling you guys my experience. The package claims it gently removes make-up and cleanses skin. It says, "This cleanser effortlessly removes even the heaviest make-up while cleaning the skin". Other indications: 

-Not tested on animals 
-Does not contain animal ingredients
-Formulated without parabens and phthalates


I give this cleanser a 3/5.

It doesn't really remove all your make-up. After using it for a long time, I learned that the best way to apply this cleanser in order to get the best results is that after rinsing with water, you humidify some cotton and take off the rest of make-up left. So, as a make-up remover is not a great thing. 

But, as a make-up cleanser is OK. I really like the soft texture of my skin after applying it. Plus, I love how eco-friendly is this brand, especially with animals.

Pros:
-Very cheap. I got it for $5.
-Leaves my skin very soft.

Cons:
-Not such good make-up remover.
-Have Mineral Oil (which some people might hate)

Repurchasing?: No. I wanna try other cleansers more effectives. And after researching about mineral oil (and its relation to breakouts), I prefer not to take risks and try other products without it.

Thanks for reading.
