Luview Whitening Capsule BB Cream - REVIEW
A long time ago I tired the LuView Whitening Capsule BB Cream and hated it. My skin type is dry and I know that it is my fault that I did not notice that this BB cream is targeted for people with oily skin. But when I tired this it highlighted how dry my face was and trust me that's not something you want to highlight. Anyway, it just seemed to drown in my collection of BB creams, until this summer when I wanted to try something 'new'.

Empties #2
Hi, I'm back with another empties post. When I did the first one I was thinking to my self that there was just no way I could finish enough products to blog about in one month. This is a great challenge for me as I have a tonne of products that are half empty and now I love reaching for them so that I can finish them and blog about it. Let's get started.
Caudalie Vinexpert Anti-Aging Serum for Eyes and Lips- 15mL
Purchased it off FeelUnique.com about a year ago and I have been using it for the past 3 months. I purchased it because Fuzkitty from YouTube kept on raving about it. A great serum for the eye area, absorbs nicely, no apparent scent an over all nice product. It's more of a prevention, so it's better suited for those in their 20's.
Repurchase? Yes
Lusia Milk Hand Cream- 80mL
Brought solely just to redeem free shipping from SaSa.com. Dirt cheap, and I was not really expecting a lot from it. It's got a really nice texture, and melts right into the skin. Keeps my hands very moisturized, but see the catch is that it really smells like milk.
Repurchase? No
I ❤ Suki Rose Hand Cream- 75mL
Received it for free at SaSa.com a long time ago. A strong rose scented hand cream, kinda like an old lady. But it was a nice hand cream and small enough to fit in a hand bag.
Repurchase? No
Naruko Rose Aqua Cubic Foaming Wash- 120mL
First note this does not foam up, but I still like it because I use it during the morning. It's very gentle and smells so so great.
Repurchase? Yes, I already have back ups
Am Pm Happy Everyday Flash Foam Wash- 120mL
My sister gave this to me and it's under the Naurko brand and you can purchase it from the same website. This is one of those self foaming wash, you just pump and out come the foam. It smells so herbal and I get a really strong rosemary scent. I used this during my night routine and while it was effective at removing my makeup. It left my skin very squeaky clean and very tight. I would say it's more suited to those with oily skin.
Repurchase? No
Softymo Speedy Cleansing Milk- 230mL
One of the first cleansers that I ordered from SaSa.com. Described as a great cleanser for dry skin. I wasn't really impressed. It has a strong chemically kinda smell and left a residue which meant that I had to use another foaming cleanser to wash my face. I know that this two step cleasning method it effective for deep cleaning and to remove all traces of make up.
Repurchase? No
Laneige Water Bank Essence- 60mL
A highly raved about product from Laneige, reading all those reviews just made me cave in and buy it. I don't know how I feel about it, it's thicker than a serum but is absorbs so nicely. However, I didn't do anything for me. This claims to provide long lasting hydration, but I didn't notice it that.
Repurchase? No, there are many serums that can do the same effect
Skin79 Diamond Collection BB Cream- 40g
This BB cream was one of the first that I tired out. It was cheap, available through eBay with free shipping and it's pink. I even brought the matching powder. I remember feeling so amazed by how it evened out my skin tone without feeling so heavy. The colour matched my skin very nicely. I don't remember if it came in different colours. It felt a little drying during the colder months.
Repurchase? No, just because I like trying out new BB creams
Skin 79 Super BB Cream (Hot Pink Bottle)- 40g
The FIRST BB cream that I brought. It's also got so many raves about it, well back then anyway. It comes out a little grey but blends in very nicely. I also brought the matching powder, it was the cool thing to do. I think this BB cream is great for any one wanting to try BB creams out for the first time.
Repurchase? No
That's all for this time. I really like doing these kind off posts so keep an out for more (hopefully).
Love,
Sakura

Skin 79 Diamond Absolute Total BB Cream
Hello
I haven't touched this BB cream in a very long time. It was one of the very first BB creams that I brought when I was first trying them out. I was going through my collection today and picked this up again and wore it. I'm in love with it again.

The packaging is really neat and worthy of been placed on your dresser or vanity. Its very hygienic as it comes in a pump bottle. Another added feature is that the sliver cap actually locks and you need to twist the cap to unlock it, pretty neat no more lost caps anymore.
Just from the above photo you can see how grey this BB cream really is. I remember how my I hated this BB cream back when I first tried it, it made my face a completely different shade to my neck. However, over time I wanted a very sheer coverage and started to mix a bit of this BB cream with my sunscreen and I absolutely loved the idea.
This BB cream is recommended for oily/combination skin, I have dry skin but since today was so hot and humid I love how it keeps my skin looking smooth and flawless. Unfortunately it only comes in one shade.
Even through I really love this BB cream it doesn't do what it claims I saw no changes in my skin in terms of whitening or anti-aging, but I really wasn't expecting it or any other make up product that claims to deliver these functions.
Love
Sakura
