Klairs Rich Moist Soothing Tencel Sheet Mask Review

Klairs Rich Moist Soothing Tencel Sheet Mask Review

My latest beauty obsession has been, without a doubt, sheet masks! They seem to be everywhere and it looks like there is a sheet mask for each and every single need your skin may have. 

So, I have been trying a few sheet masks I was able to find here in Buenos Aires, but I was really looking forward to testing a real Korean sheet mask because I feel like this was a thing that they have invented so they probably are the best in this topic and also because I have been really into Korean beauty lately. 

Klairs Rich Moist Soothing Tencel Sheet Mask

Anyway, I was really lucky because I was sent these Klairs sheet masks from the Korean beauty store Wishtrend and I got super excited to try them out! The Klairs Rich Moist Soothing Tencel Sheet Mask is designed to moisturize and soothe the skin and to also help to strengthen the protective barrier of the skin. 

I have already tried their Rich Moist Soothing Serum which I like a lot (you can read my full review of this product here) and I continue to use every day on my skincare routine so I was hoping that this mask also gave me the same good results. 

What I like about this sheet mask is that is very gentle and it has very basic and natural ingredients, such as, aloe vera leaf extract, hyaluronic acid, and Centella Asiatica extract along with 5 different types of ceramides which work together to strengthen the skin barrier.

The mask is very easy to use, it's divided into two pieces, one for the forehead and eye area and then another part for the mouth area. I think that this makes it a lot easier for me to apply. After you apply it, you have to wait for 15-20 minutes and then you can remove the mask and pat the remaining product so that your skin can absorb it. 

During the 20 minutes, I left the mask on, it didn't move or fell from my face and it felt very refreshing, cooling and soft. It doesn't have a strong scent and to me, that is a plus because it feels more natural.

Klairs Sheet Mask

After I removed the mask, I could tell that my skin felt great, a lot more hydrated and recovered from all the stress I was carrying on from the week. These masks became a new weekend ritual for me now because since I have started working again I feel like my skin is suffering those fewer hours of sleep and maybe not eating as well as I was doing before. 

So they are really helping my skin to be at a better condition and I totally consider getting them again in the near future. I really hope you find this review helpful and let me know if you are using any other sheet masks at the moment? Which ones are your favorites?

Ilymix New Sunglasses



I'm super excited to show you a new pair of sunglasses I have recently received from a brand called Ilymix! They have an amazing accessories selection, which includes hats, bags, scarves and, of course, sunglasses. 

All of their items are very trendy and they have many amazing designs so I was very happy to collaborate with them. As I was checking out their site, I went straight to the sunglasses section because they are my favorite accessories along with watches. Sunglasses can make you look instantly cool without making any extra effort. So, I picked up this gorgeous pair of sunglasses and I really like them because they have a very classic design, aviator inspired, but with a few cool touches. 


Ilymix Sunglasses Detail

I feel like this kind of sunglasses suits any face shape perfectly and they are very easy to wear with any outfit. Another great thing about this site is that they offer a wide variety of colors for each sunglasses model but I decided to go for the black one with golden details because I realized I didn't have any pair of sunglasses with this combination. 

They came in a very nice box and a very practical pouch was included with the sunglasses to carry them in your bag. I'm very satisfied with the quality of this sunglasses and I love how they look on my face.

First Impressions: New Products I Bought Recently

First Impressions Seize your Style

This month I thought about doing something different than the Monthly Favorites post I have been doing lately because during April I didn't really have a lot of favorite products to talk about. So, I think it would be best to share the first impressions I have about some new products I tried last month. Let's start!

1- Burt's Bees Coconut & Pear Moisturizing Lip Balm

I run out of my lip balm so I decided to finally give Burt's Bees products a chance. I have been very tempted to try them for a while so I was very excited when I bought this lip balm. I love that this brand uses natural ingredients for their products and this one, in particular, is 100% natural.
The best thing about this lip balm is without a doubt the smell, as the name indicates is made of coconut and pear, so you can imagine that combination!! The smell is so fruity, sweet and delicious! 
On the other hand, the texture is soft and like butter, it runs very smoothly on top of the lips and I feel that it keeps them hydrated for a very long time. So, I'm very happy and satisfied with this product and I'm looking forward to trying more products of this brand in the future.

2- L'Oréal Hidra-Total 5 BB Cream 

Recently I also run out of the Kiehl's BB Cream that I was using and I'm still a little sad about it because it was one of my favorite products of last year! But, anyway, life goes on and it was time to find a new one. I decided to try something more affordable this time so I choose this one from L'Oréal and there are a few things that I like a lot and some others that I'm not so sure about. 
What I like about this BB Cream is that is very good in perfecting my skin texture and it also evens my skin tone very well. I see that my skin looks smoother after I applied the product. 
But what I don't like is that there was only one shade available and it's a little bit light for me but as BB Creams, in general, are not high coverage I feel like it ends up blending with my skin tone somehow. 
Also, this BB Cream has SPF20 which is nice to have but compared to the Kiehl's one it's a little bit low because Kiehl's BB Cream has SPF50. However, I feel like, in overall, is a good product for the price you pay.

3- Garnier Fructis Oil Repair Liso Coco Shampoo

I have been obsessed with this line of Garnier hair products, I was using their Oil Repair treatment, shampoo, and conditioner, so when I saw that they have launched a new one with coconut oil I knew I had to try it!
This shampoo is designed to smooth and straighten rebel and frizzy hair and that is also what made me buy this product. But, even though the coconut scent this product has is amazing, I'm not seeing such good results when it comes to controlling the frizz. 
I'm still going to give this shampoo a chance because we have been having the craziest, rainy and humid weeks here in Buenos Aires, so maybe there was no way of escaping frizz with this weather. I'll see how it goes on a less humid day.

4- Herbal Essences Pure Renew Argan Oil Conditioner

I'm going to confess I have an obsession with trying new hair products, I can't help it! Whenever there is a new hair product I have to give it a go, even if my current hair routine was working pretty well. 
So, when I saw this new Pure Renew line by Herbal Essences I got very intrigued because I had some good results with this brand in the past. 
All of the product from this line have antioxidants, aloe, and sea kelp and they are designed to renew your hair fiber.  It also doesn't contain any paraben, salt or colorants which makes it very mild. 
I have picked the one with Argan Oil, which is supposed to repair the hair. I have used it once and I could fell that my hair was smoother and softer.  The texture of this conditioner is very light and the scent is nice and a little bit sweet. 
So far, I really like it but we will see how it goes when I use it more.

That's it for today! Those were the 4 new products I have been trying last month and my first impressions! I would love to know what do you think about this kind of post! If you like it better than Monthly Favorites post. Also, let me know if you have tried any of this products! ;)

Rosegal Haul

Rosegal Haul


Today I have a little haul from Rosegal to share with you! As you already know I have been collaborating with this site since last year so here are some new pieces they have sent me for review. 

I will start with this beautiful Lace Long Sleeves Dress which I really like! I wanted a lace dress like this one for quite a long time. I love the sapphire blue color because I find it very elegant and flattering. 
I got this dress in the size M and it fits me perfectly! The lace fabric looks very good too so I'm super happy with the overall quality of this dress. I'm not so sure when I will be able to wear it yet, but if I have any special occasion in the future, this will be the dress I choose.

Then I picked another dress because I realized that I didn't have as many nice dresses in my wardrobe. This Off The Shoulder Flounce Denim Dress looked really pretty on the website and as I'm loving anything off-the-shoulder lately I ordered. However, when I tried it on, I realized it was a little bit big for me. I got this dress in the size M because it was the smallest available but I find it quite wide and a little bit too long for me. 
Anyway, I think I can make it work by adding a belt because I think this is a very nice casual dress for Spring-Summer.

The third piece of clothing I selected was this Casual V-Neck Solid Color Long Sleeves Pullover Sweater. I really loved the color of this sweater, it's like a mix of pink and lilac that I think would look very pretty with white or some light blue denim jeans. The size of this one was also M and it fits very well too. The fabric is not very thick so this sweater is perfect for this transitional weather we are having right now.

Also, this time I decided to try something new from this site, something that wasn't clothes so I ordered this Waterproof Silicone Sonic Face Cleanser Device which is very similar to the Foreo cleanser. I really love this product, I have been using it since I received it and it works perfectly! It does a great job cleaning my face and it's very gentle. It comes with its USB charger so it's super practical.

Last but not the least I have picked two accessories, the first one is this Globe Telescope Pendant Necklace, which I think looks super cute for a travel lover like me! The quality of the necklace is good and the chain looks very resistant.

Then I received this Gold Plated Diamante Heart Embellished Bracelet, which also looks very pretty. It's rose gold and the embellished details look very good quality. I like this kind of bracelets a lot lately so when I saw it on the website I knew I had to have it.

New Fall Favorites from Zaful

Zaful Fall Favorites Review

I'm super excited to show you two new pieces I have received from Zaful recently and they have just become my new fall favorites!! As you know I have been collaborating with this web store so in today's post I'm going to share with you the review of the products they have sent me. Let's start!

First, I received this lovely pink sweater with pearl embellishments. I think since last year I fell in love with this trend, everything that has some sort of embellishment instantly catches my eyes and this sweater wasn't the exception! 

Zaful Pink Sweater with Pearl Embellishments


I also loved the sleeve details when I saw it on the website but when I tried it on I feel like it's a little bit too much. Anyway, I still like it a lot so I'm sure I'm going to be wearing it a lot when the weather gets colder. 

Zaful Pink Sweater with Pearl Embellishments Sleeve detail


In regards to the quality and size, the fabric is very good, it's made of acrylic, cotton, and polyester, it's thick and it feels very warm. The pearl embellishments are perfectly attached to the fabric so I don't feel like I'm going to lose any pearls when I start wearing it. 

About the size, I wasn't very sure when I ordered it because it's one size so I was a little bit concerned that it may be too big for me but surprisingly it fits perfectly! The length goes down just to the waist and as it's supposed to be wide and bit loose-fitting, it looks great! 

Then, the next item I got was this amazing pair of black ankle boots. Without a doubt, these are definitely my favorites! I love the buckle detail they have, which makes them look a lot more interesting and stylish. 

Zaful Black Ankle Boots

Again, it was such a risk to order some shoes but following the size guide I didn't have any problems and they fit me perfectly! I got them in size 37 and I was very surprised when I tried them on because they fit me like a glove.

Another positive aspect of these boots is the quality! They look very high-quality even though they are not made of real leather and they also feel very comfortable and soft on the inside. 

Zaful Black Ankle Boots Detail

I can already tell these are going to be my go-to shoes during the entire Fall-Winter season and I can't wait to start wearing them because I'm sure they are going to look great with any of my outfits! 

So, that was all I have received from my latest collaboration with Zaful. I hope you find this review useful and I would love to hear your thoughts on these two pieces ;)

Boho Vibes with Sammydress


For today's post, I would like to show you some amazing items I have received from Sammydress, a web store I'm collaborating with. I have noticed that a few of the items I have picked from this mini haul have a little bit of a boho vibe, which I think it's very appropriate for this time of the year, with Spring just around the corner for many of you, and festival season very close too :) 


So, the first item I picked was this beautiful white blouse, which totally has that boho-chic vibe and I think would be the perfect piece to get that festival look. One of the things I love the most about this top is the batwing sleeve because it looks a lot more interesting and at the same time very casual and effortless. 
I was very surprised at the quality of the fabric, it's a mix of cotton and polyester and it has some crochet details that make the blouse look a lot more expensive than it actually is! 
In regards to the size, I got a Medium, which I think was the only option available, but it fits me very well, taking into consideration that it's supposed to be loose. So, in overall, I'm very happy with this blouse and I'm sure I will wear it a lot! 


Next, I received this rounded crossbody bag, which I'm absolutely obsessed with! I think this bag it's the perfect accessory to go with the top because it totally completes the boho vibe! The brown color along with the tassel detail on the zipper make this bag festival ready and perfect for Spring season! 
That's why I paired the two together in this outfit along with some H&M jeans and my old time favorite boots from Sybil Vane. If you would like to make this outfit a little bit more casual you can wear some shorts instead of jeans and it would look amazing too! 


Then, I also received the faux leather jacket I have shown you before on my Re-creating Instagram Outfits post and I have to say that this has become my favorite jacket at the moment. I love how it fits me and I think it has the perfect length. In regards to the quality, it's made of faux leather and it's OK for the price you are paying. I got it in a size L because I checked on the size chart that they were quite a slim fit. 


Last but not the least, I picked a very nice arrow bracelet. I really like this bracelet because it looks very delicate and feminine. The quality is good and the product looks exactly as on the website. So, I'm very satisfied with this one too. 




So, these were all the products I have received from this store, I really hope you like them and the outfit as well! Let me know which one was your favorite! ;)

New Products from Gearbest


Hello everyone!! Hope that you are all having a lovely week so far! For today's post, I would like to share with you a review from a new store I'm collaborating with. I'm talking about Gearbest, a store where you can find anything you want at a very good price! 
They have kindly sent me a few products so that I can review their quality and share my thoughts with you! So, let's start!

The first item I have received was this lovely bag, which is a very interesting dupe of the Chloe mini Nile bag and I really wanted to check how this one looked because it's a very popular bag at the moment. So, this was the item that I was more excited about. 
I have to say that I'm very impressed with the quality of the bag, it's made of faux leather but the material looks very resistant and the bag holds its shape perfectly. Also, the gold hardware and all the stud details look very nice quality too. 
So this bag is a very good dupe if you would like to get that Chloe Nile bag look for less and in case you are interested in getting this bag or any of the other bags from the site I have a special coupon code for you so you can get some discount on the items you want ;) Just use the code: bagshoesoff to get the special discount on bags and shoes.

Next, I have received a bamboo makeup brushes set which I'm very satisfied with! It contains 11 different brushes from foundation brushes to eyeshadow brushes and I think this set is perfect if you want to have all the basic brushes you need to create a complete makeup look. All the brushes are synthetic and they are extremely soft. I have tried already the foundation ones and I have to say that they work perfectly! I'm really getting some excellent results on my makeup when I use this brushes. Again, I also have another coupon code in case you are looking to get a good makeup brush set, just use the code: HEAB10OFF in order to get 10% off in the Health and Beauty section!

And last but not the least, I have received this beautiful pair of shoes, which are very Chanel inspired. I think this kind of shoes are great because they are super stylish and classic so they are very easy to style with everything. I picked the beige shade with black because I like the contrast but you can also get them in all black, which I also think is very elegant. I got this shoes in size 37 which is my normal size and they fit perfectly so I'm very happy about that but as I said in my previous post I always recommend checking the size guide to make sure. Also, the quality of the shoes is very good, they are made of synthetic leather and the black detail is made of faux suede which I think looks very pretty. In case you want to get this shoes discounted or any other shoes from the site, you can use the same bagshoesoff coupon code.

My First Steps into Korean Beauty: Klairs Products Review

Klairs Product Review

A few months ago, I have started hearing a lot about Korean Beauty and I was completely intrigued by it. So many bloggers were saying wonderful things about some particular products from Korean brands that I was really looking forward to learning more about this skincare system and perhaps trying one of their products. 
The truth is I was seeing this as something difficult to me because you can't get any Korean products here in Argentina but I was super lucky and I got an email from the lovely people at Wishtrend, a major Korean Beauty online store, to test some of their products! You can't imagine how excited I was with this email because I was going to see with my own eyes if all this hype around K-Beauty products was true!


Klairs Product Review 2

Once I have accepted this collaboration, I decided to do some more research about the Korean Skincare routine, just to have a little bit more information about how I would incorporate the new products to my normal skincare routine and also to see if I needed to make some adjustments to the steps I was doing at the moment. 
Anyway, I have received two amazing products from a Korean brand named Klairs, which were exactly what my skin was needing at the moment. As far as I know, this brand only works with natural ingredients and is vegan-friendly, which is always a plus. 


Klair Rich Moist Soothing Serum

The first product I received is Klairs Rich Moist Soothing Serum and this is a very gentle and aqueous serum which helps to hydrate and replenish moisture in the skin. This product has a very light and watery texture, it feels very nice on the skin and it absorbs very quickly. It's not sticky at all and it's very easy to apply. I normally use just two pumps of the product for my entire face. I have been using it every morning and night for the last month and I really enjoy applying it to my skin. Once I finish, my skin feels super smooth and hydrated so I consider that this serum totally does what it promises.
Another positive aspect of this product is that it contains a very good amount, it's a bottle of 80ml and you just need to apply 1-2 pumps to cover your face so I think it will last a good time. 

Klair Rich Moist Soothing Serum 2


Klair Rich Moist Soothing Serum 3

I have also received Klairs Freshly Juiced Vitamin Drop which is a Vitamin C concentrate and I have to say that this is the product that has surprised me the most! It was my first time using any product with Vitamin C and I have seen the greatest difference once I have started using it. 
Apart from pure Vitamin C essence, this product also contains Centella Asiatica, Yuzu, and Grapefruit extracts, as well as L-Ascorbic Acid, which help to stimulate collagen production and they also help to improve skin tone and texture without harsh irritation. 
It's indicated to use 1-2 drops of this product in the morning and evening but I have been using it just in the evenings. 


Klair Freshly Juiced Vitamin Drop

As this was my first time using a Vitamin C extract I wasn't very sure about how to incorporate this product into my skincare routine. Even though the Wishtrend site has a lot of information about each product, it would be nice if they include more information about how to use them in a particular routine, in which order it would be better to use each product because I was a little bit lost about this one.  
Anyway, I ended up applying the Freshly Juiced Vitamin Drop right after the toner and before the serum and it worked perfectly!
This product is also watery and very easy to apply as well. I have been using 2 drops and it's more than enough for my face and neck. Right after I apply it, I just notice my skin to be a little more bright and luminous but I think this product works its magic overnight because I see a lot of improvements when I was up, but let's talk about this more in depth.


Klair Freshly Juiced Vitamin Drop 2


Klair Freshly Juiced Vitamin Drop 3


How my skin has improved by using these two products?

1) My skin looks brighter and more luminous
This was one of the most noticeable improvements I saw on my skin once I have started using these products. My skin tone was more even and brighter than ever! Every morning, when I wake up my skin has a healthy, natural glow and it looks more luminous. That's why I say that these products work their magic overnight. 

2) The texture of my skin is softer and smoother
When I touch my face I feel it incredibly soft and it's also a lot smoother than before. After just one month of using both products, I can see a difference in this aspect as well and I feel very satisfied with it.

3) My acne was reduced a lot
This was the most important improvement I have noticed after I started applying both products. I had a few pimples the day I received the package at home and after just one use of the Vitamin C extract and 2 uses of the serum, I saw those pimples looking a lot better the next day! Also, in all of this month using the Klairs products I didn't have as many pimples as before and if I had any it wasn't as bad as it used to be. So, here I see I huge difference and I could also add that all the acne scars and pigmentation marks are looking a lot better too. 


Klairs Product Review Before and After

Klairs Product Review Before and After 2

So these were my thoughts about my first experience trying Korean Beauty products and I have to say that it was a very positive one. I feel like this kind of products and skincare routine suits me very well, so I would definitely recommend these two products as they have shown amazing results on my skin. I hope you find this review helpful and in case you are interested in trying some of their products I would recommend checking out these two-product sets Wishtrend is offering only during this month, with a special 5% off!
