VDL Lumilayer Primer Review

I have always wanted to invest myself a primer. But I've been advised greatly in the past that I don't need one as I only use concealer and BB cream, which contains "primer" in it. And the good thing about BB cream that it stays for a good 6 hours for me, thus I guess that is why I wasn't recommended any primer when I go makeup shopping. And as we all know, the purpose of a primer is to help makeup stay longer. So why need one right?

But the curiosity hits me hard when I heard of this product's existence which then probes me to try it.
So what is VDL? I for one didn't know this brand existed at all! :X VDL (Violet Dream Luminous) cosmetics was founded in 2012 by The Colour Lab of LG Household and Healthcare in Korea. They are known for their extensive range of innovative beauty products ranging from skin care to makeup. Prices are pretty reasonable too! The VDL Lumilayer Primer is one of VDL’s best selling product and apparently a must-have beauty item. Did an intensive research before buying it to discover that it is not just a primer, it also has a brightening effect, and can be use as a highlighter, and from that on, I instantly knew this product is meant for me. Like I got to try it. And I did. And I am glad to say that this has not failed me.

I have been using this primer ever since I got it last month, for night functions like parties and clubbing. What I like about is that it adds a fresh dewy look to your skin and its luminosity is only slight, making it a fabulous makeup base.

 My first impression:
When I first pumped it, it looks really watery and looks really white. But when I blended it out, it gives a nice glowy effect. And when I apply on my face, it leaves my skin very moisturised.

As you see in the following collage, the difference between with and without primer (tested on my hands), the with primer makes my hand looks really glowy and just brightens up the overall effect!




















Would I buy it again? Yes!
Would I recommend it to someone else? Yes!
So what are you waiting for? ;)

Hope you enjoyed this review! Make sure you pop down to VDL store to try this out (if you have the store that is, at where you are situated) For all I know, there's no VDL store in Australia :(
I purchased mine from Absolute Beauty who is located in Perth! (as you will see later on in my future posts, that I often shop there!)
I strongly encourage and recommend you to shop here if you are too in Perth, not only because the price is the lowest in Perth amongst other competitive stores, but also because they stock a lot of Japanese, Korean, Taiwanese cosmetics, skin care products, health/body care products and snacks that you can't buy from normal shops in Perth; moreover all their products are genuine; and finally and most importantly, they provide high quality service in which you can buy it in their physical store, or you can pickup your purchased products at UWA or Curtin (if your a uni student like me!)

If your keen or interested in this, here are their contact details:

Till next time!

Takami Skin Peel Review

Image
Apparently this is ranked #1 in Japan so I thought to myself, ooh let's try this! It then prompted me to ask the owner at Perth Fabulous Beauty about it, the price ($79) I admit, initially threw me off. I felt hesitant because I asked myself, would I take this bet to try this out if in case it doesn't work out at the end? So after a night's thought, I went to the shop..... and bought it! I have been using this little magic for a week now.. and so far, here are my thoughts. You must be wondering what is this product about right? Well Takami Skin Peel proves to soften and beautify skin. It is said to be that the fluid feels exactly like water with no artificial flavour or any added fragrance. It is also said to "solve a variety of skin problems, such as pores, blackheads, acne, fat particles, etc.." "And if you persist using it everyday, you will certainly see the effects." And just from that rough translation, it felt like I need to try this prod

"Less perfection, more authenticity."

  Authenticity, living life being true to who you truly want to be. Rediscover your authentic self from within. Align yourself to your values and goals and live life authentically, and do not waiver in the face of mediocrity and conformity. May today’s quote (one of my favs) inspire you to be true to who you are. I truly believe that if you’re your authentic self, you have no competition💫 A little personal post today -  I used to own a lil blog where I just write my heart out but for now, I'll spill my thoughts here :) The purpose of our lives is to be happy right? Every time we make a decision, our most important question should be - will it make me happy? Nothing can be greater than our own happiness. It is our life and we need to choose what to do with it. Breathe and keep breathing. Keep trusting the journey you are on. It might not make sense right now. It might feel utterly chaotic and overwhelming. You might feel like sometimes you're living a life that isn't even y

Tokyo Banana Original Review

Image
It has been a while since I did a snack review.... tonight's the night I shall share my opinion of a famous Japanese treat called Tokyo Banana Original  :) Fun fact of the day... Do you know Tokyo Banana expires within 12 days? But it must be consumed within 7 days (in order to taste the original flavour) so you can't keep it too long! *sad* Japan is very well known country with their wide varieties of snacks, in which all of them are very yummy!  If you are not into Japanese snacks, haven't been to Japan at all or have no idea what this is... Tokyo Banana is just a soft plain sponge cake filled with banana custard cream. It's a famous Japanese snack and you can only purchase them in Japan or through online (for more deets, message me)!  It is seriously a MUST HAVE food souvenir when you visit Japan.  From their website, it is said that they come in boxes of 4, 8 ,12 and 16. As you can see, I got the package of 8. Besides the fact that the who
