Review for Nature Republic Pure Foundation







REVIEW FOR NATURE REPUBLIC PURE FOUNDATION


Hi girls! Today I will be giving my review for Nature Republic Pure Foundation. Two points; I am loving Korean products lately and I am a foundation junkie.Nature Republic is one of my fave store because they have lots of items to choose from that won't make your pockets cry.

I got interested with this foundation because it is just P295.00. And on my mind was, if it won't work, it won't hurt my feelings :)

I am in the Shade 23, which is Natural Beige, the second to the lightest shade. Other shades are Pink Beige (lightest), Sand Beige and Tan Brown which is good for contouring I think. You just need to be careful in choosing the shades because in my case, Natural Beige is light but Sand Beige is dark. Good thing I am acidic so Natural Beige suited me better. They must have more shades.


The packaging is a plastic tube that is very travel friendly. It has the information at the back but they are Korean. What I understood is that it has SPF 40+++ and it contains 15 ml of the product. What I also like about it is the tip, which is pointed that can make you create this:


I love it hehe. Playing while doing make-up. I feel like putting a mayonnaise on my sandwich hehe. It smells like a refreshing Korean skin care product.

With the application, let's see my bare face:

I have small dark spots and dark circles. Let's see half of my face with the product. I used a mushroom brush but sometimes a sponge. :


Don't be shocked with the shade. I am acidic and my face is darker than my body so it blends well like what you see below:


It already set on my face. The coverage is light to medium and the finish is not so dewy and not so matte. Very natural looking but it seems like the foundation is "moving". It is not the usual foundation that is absorbed by the face. For me, it is similar to bb cream but better coverage.

I set it with powder because I am oily. After 4 hours, my face is a bit dewy but tolerable. I felt like I am not oiling up too much with this. And the blotting paper shows.


But it has the tendency to settle on your fine lines.




Overall, it stayed on my face for 6 to 8 hrs before I extremely oil up.

Been using it daily and my face doesn't react badly. 

So let's see my final verdict:

PROS:

-Price is very affordable, won't hurt your pocket if it won't work considering it is a Korean Brand.
-Skin-friendly. It's not harsh on your face
-Packaging is very travel-friendly
-It doesn't clog my pores
-It did not state that it has oil control properties but it did control oil.

CONS:

-Shade selections
-Tends to settle on fine lines

FINAL THOUGHTS:

I give this a thumbs-up because my skin loves it. It gives me a decent oil control. The settling on fine lines can be managed.

Repurchase? Yes. It can be for everyday use.

Recommend? Yes. To those who loves mild foundation and those who are foundation junkie like me since it is affordable for a Korean Brand.

Review for Celeteque Hydration Facial Moisturizer

REVIEW FOR CELETEQUE HYDRATION FACIAL MOISTURIZER First of all, thanks for giving Grasya's Diary a sight. Today, I will be giving you an updated review for Celeteque Hydration Moisturizer.  I used to have oily skin, but due to some topical treatments and cleansers, I got a combination skin after. There were dry patches after weeks of using my creams so I asked my derma if I can use a moisturizer. She told me I can but I just need to put  on to dry patches in order for me not to have an oily face again. I was  confused with her statement because I know that even you have an oily skin, you must still use a moisturizer, just pick a water-based then.  So I still use it for the whole face hehe. I was using Myra-E before but I feel it's kinda heavy on my face so I tried this Celeteque Hydration Facial Moisturizer.  Again, to reiterate, can we use Moisturizer even we have oily skin? Yes. Oil is different from moisture. Sometimes our skin tends to oil-up because it needs mo

Smashbox Photo finish Primer versus Benefit Porefessional Primer

Smashbox Photo finish Primer versus Benefit Porefessional Primer   First of all, Happy New Year and Happy Valentine's Day... Hahaha... Yes blogging is back; it was never gone. I was just too focused with my corporate job but I am here now... and we will keep the ball rollin' So today, I will be reviewing 2 primers; Smashbox Photo Finish Primer and Benefit Porefessional Primer. It would be a comparison review. But let me define what a Primer is. Primer is a product applied on the face prior to foundation to ensure that the surface or canvass will be smooth, poreless, refined and sometimes used to prolong the staying power of the foundation; as it also can control oil. Imagine painting your wall? We use primer first before the paint right? Same thing on our face. There are difderent types of primers but today I will just focus on the 2 mentioned brands; Smashbox and Benefit. Correct me if I am wrong but I believe those brands are part of the high-e

Review for Naturactor Cover Face

Beautiful day ladies! Today I will be reviewing my favorite foundation this season. Yes, for this season because I tend to change foundation. For those who are asking, this is the same review posted in my FB Page but I just did some revision with the format and with the wordings as well. Why am I so into this foundation?  Do I love this product? Let us see. So here's the verdict :  CHARACTERISTICS: ● Naturactor is a make-up from Japan and I love Japan make-ups. It was named Naturactor Cover Face since it is really a concealer but because of its good coverage, it can be used as a foundation.  ●The texture is velvety, and is a cream-type of foundation. ●It smells like an “oldies make-up”. What I meant was the scent of the make-up before of our grandmoms has quite difference with today’s fragranced make-up. If you are sensitive with the smell of a make-up, this may be an issue.  VARIETY: ● Cover face has 5 shades, but there are also other variants as shown belo
