Breaking out? Stop it in it's tracks with Lioele's Essential Aloe Mask!


Today we will be reviewing Lioele’s Essential Aloe Mask!



My last trip out to Lioele Texas, I picked up the Essential masks because I had run out of the Essence mask pack that I had before. The first one that I have used so far is the Aloe mask. The Aloe mask boasts multiple healing properties, can help with reducing acne and preventing it as well as brightening the complexion. I started out with this mask because I’m currently starting to breakout and I wanted to see if the Aloe mask with its acne prevention could help my skin before it got too bad.

Looking to Highlight your look? Try Lioele's Silky Highlighter BB Touch!


Today we will be reviewing Lioele’s Silky Highlighter BB Touch!


I’m sure that everyone has realized that I can’t review all of Lioele’s BB cream due to have a darker skin tone than most Asians. It’s understood that Lioele has its roots in Korea and they tend to focus more on skin tones that they see lot of in Korea, which is why they don’t carry more BB creams in my skin tone . I have ask someone of my friends to help me out with the BB creams that don’t match my skin tone, since only one of the Lioele BB creams does match my skin tone (the Lioele Super Gold Snail BB cream) . For the Silky Highlighter BB Touch, one of my helpful friends took the BB cream and used it for a month.  Here are some of her thoughts on the Silky Highlighter BB Touch; I hope that her observations help if you are interested in using this BB cream.

Q/A

I wanted to start off by asking her the questions that I usually ask myself when I’m reviewing a Lioele product. I usually look at what the product promises and the benefits that it boast.  Especially for the BB cream, I like to give more time for the benefits to start working since the BB cream are structured for daily use.  This is why I ask my friend to use the Silky Highlighter BB Touch for a month. A month is typically when you can start to see if the product can live up to its promises.
Q: How was the highlighting feature?
A: I found it to work well but I felt that there was too much shimmer in the BB Touch.
Q: Do you feel that this made you want to use the Silky Highlighter BB Touch less or more?
A: Not really, but I would like less product distribution when using the Silky Highlighter.
Q: Did you feel that the product had good coverage?
A: I think that with multiple applications it can provide good coverage maybe like 2 layers of the product.  Maybe it would have provided better coverage for someone with a lighter skin tone.
[My friend has more of an olive skin tone which was a little darker than the pale/porcelain skin tone the Silky Highlighter seems to be made for.]

General Impressions

She felt that the Silky Highlighter had more of a grey undertone that might look better on someone who has yellow undertones in their complexions. She also felt that the Silky Highlighter didn’t have a smooth finish to it when compared to the Super Gold Snail BB cream. She did feel that the Silky Highlighter had very pretty high shine highlighter.  She thought it was great for those looking for a shimmer.

Recommendation

My friend recommends that anyone using the Silky Highlighter BB Touch to make sure that also use a setting powder so it doesn’t move too much. Although, it is a great feature of the product because it allows you do fix any mistakes that you might make without having to use a makeup remover.  She also thought that best application of the Silky Highlighter would be for capturing that beach glow without using a lot of makeup. All in all she did recommend this product for those with fair skin tones and for anyone who likes shimmer.

Looking for a new cleanser? Try Lioele's Cranberry Vita Juicy Foam Cleanser!

Today we will be reviewing the Lioele Cranberry Vita Juicy Foam Cleanser!



Since I have been seeing good results with Lioele, I wanted to try out one of their cleanser for my daily face wash.  Like I have said numerous times on this blog, I have troublesome, oily skin so I went with Cranberry Vita Juicy Foam Cleanser. The Cranberry Foam Cleanser promises to get rid of dead skin cells that clog pores causing breakouts and dull skin.  I want to try out the cleanser because I really like the Vita Shake facemasks and I thought this would be a perfect fit in my skin regiment.

Appearance

The Cranberry Vita Juicy Foam Cleanser is great because whenever you open the tube you get hit with the scent of fruity Cranberry.  Everyone should know by now, that I really enjoy having my product match up with the description of how it’s supposed to smell like. Since it was Cranberry, I didn’t want the scent to have dry, uninteresting scent instead Lioele managed to make the Cranberry very fruity and fun.  I like how the scent is noticeable without being overpowering.  I also felt the choice for making the oily foam cleanser to be Cranberry was an excellent one.

Use

The Cranberry Vita Juicy Foam Cleanser is a cream cleanser so you will need a lot of water to make sure that it foams correctly.  To make sure that I have enough water so that the cleanser foams up like it’s supposed to, I tend to use this cleanser whenever I’m in the shower.  This is the only issue that I have with the product because this could be inconvenience if you are in a hurry. Although, I tend to have this problem a lot with cream cleansers so maybe it’s only an issue that I have.

I do like how the cream looks like its pack with nutrients. It’s the first thing that I noticed when I started using the product that the cream had neat shimmer to it. I really like that addition to the Cranberry Vita Juicy Foam Cleanser because it’s such a small detail that could have been over look for a more plain cream. Especially since the cream look like it was packing nutrients, I really felt my skin soak up the nutrients that the cream provided while cleaning out my complexion.

Recommendation

I have been using the Cranberry Vita Juicy Foam Cleanser for a month now and I feel that with this cleanser and the rest of the Lioele products that my skin has become healthier and less troublesome. I feel the Cranberry Vita Juicy Foam Cleanser helped my complexion to become less oily while still delivering the nutrients that my skin needs. Unlike other cleansers that will clean your complexion by completely stripping your face of natural oils leaving your face feeling dry, the Cranberry Vita Juicy Foam Cleanser finds the perfect balance between cleaning and vitalized. If you are looking for a cleanser and if you have oily skin then I would recommend the Cranberry Vita Juicy Foam Cleanser for your needs.
