Review: Mimo By M Bright Like A Star Skincare

mimo by m



It took me some time to write this review because I was sick and I want this post to cover all your questions and also I did my best to test all the products to see the results and to give my honest opinion. First of all, I am so much glad that the Founder of Mimo by M, Mehek finally took a step forward in the Pakistani Skincare Industry, we don’t have much good locally skincare brands which are made industrially, we do have some homemade brands which are good but I haven’t tried much from them.

Review: Instytutum Powerful Retin Oil


Hope everyone is doing fine, it's been a long since I posted regularly, and honestly every time I say I mostly can't keep my promise so let's go with the flow, and let's hope that I keep on posting new content. Today I will be reviewing the Instytutum powerful retin oil which I'm lucky enough to win in a giveaway.


INSTYTUTUM POWERFUL RETIN OIL




Unparalleled powerful, this luxury golden oil will deliver exceptional results. Instantly creates an astonishingly smooth, dewy, plumped, and luminous-looking complexion.
It claims to reduce pore size & dark spots, improves fine lines & wrinkles, increases elasticity & skin firmness, skin texture, imperfections, dryness & dullness, moisturizing, nourishing & regenerating, boosting skin renewal & resurface dead skin cells, fights premature aging and photoaging.


INGREDIENTS 



Granactive Retinoid, Advanced Next Generation Retinol, Algae Extract, 15 Precious Oils, Bakuchiol and Patented Raspberry Stem Cells.


MY THOUGHTS



This Oil came in a luxurious glass packaging with the dropper and contains 30ml of oil.
It has a soapy scent to it which does linger even after application. The oil itself is more light and liquidy side. The oil has a light yellow-gold color to it.
I really like how so many lovely ingredients added in this oil. It contains Algae Extract which is strong anti-aging ingredients, 15 precious oils that help in toning the improving the skin overall. Bakuchiol which is natural retinol like ingredient with tons of antioxidants. Patented raspberry stem cells which help with the skin elasticity.
The oil spread and absorbs easily into the skin without creating any layer/ film which is totally opposite to what I was expecting in a good way. I have been using it and it does work well in moisturizing, brightening, and smoothing out the texture of the skin. You can use it in am and pm routine but if your skin is sensitive it’s better to start with using 3 times and then going to using it daily. Make sure to use SPF if you use it in your AM skincare routine.
I am not sure yet how much it works against wrinkles but I will try to use it around my neck to see if it works and will let you guys know. I have sensitive skin and I don't find it harsh or strong on my skin personally but its better to avoid using it with other active acids.









So far I am loving this oil and I love how it makes my skin texture smoother and also helps against the dark spots, I dot have wrinkles so I can't say much on it but it does make skin supple, I will let you guys know. Overall it is quite expensive retinol if you ask me but it is worth trying especially if you find it on sale. 
You can get yours from their official website.

Review: Unpa Cosmetics Review



I think there are many Korean brands which are really famous in Korea but not internationally and I think Unpa is one of them. Unpa Cosmetics is one of the famous brand of South Korea which have both skincare and makeup line focusing on the minimal yet great products. Let’s start with the skincare first.


UNPA BYE BYE CICA TONER




Soothing, Revitalizing, Moisturizing Toner, formulated with 80% Centella Water excellent in repairing skin damage and soothing irritated skin. It is a hypo-allergenic toner that actively reflected consumers’ opinions where those with sensitive skin can use with relief and can be applied several times such as a 7-skin method, skin mask, etc. as it contains all green level ingredients with no harmful substances.
You guys know how much I love cica products so I was really excited to try this Cica toner by Unpa Cosmetics as it contains 80% Centella water and other key ingredients are witch hazel, job’s tear seed, honey extract, panthenol, and glycerin.
This toner came in a huge bottle which contains 500 ml of toner. The packaging is simple yet aesthetically pleasing. The toner is of water consistency with the cica powder on top which makes it a little opaque in color and you have to shake it every time before using. This does not have any scent to it and does not contain any harmful ingredients.







As the toner is specially designed for sensitive skin, my skin loves it and I have mine in a spray bottle so I can use it as a mist and it really helps in soothing the skin. It really helps in hydrating and moisturizing the skin as well so I use it as a mask pack as well.


UNPA BUBI BUBI LIP




Due to the overwhelming needs from the Unpa lip product maniacs, Bubi Bubi Lip is an improved version of old physical exfoliation that softly uses bubbles to scrub your lips. Our product is safe to use due to its natural origin ingredients, this product became popular on SNS due to its effect of smoothly taking care of rough lips even if you use it every single day.
This came is tiny pink packaging with the pump applicator and you get 12ml of product in it. This is basically a chemical exfoliator for the lips and this gentle enough to use every day. This does not have microbeads but it makes foam/bubble just like many face masks. It contains safe natural ingredients like papaya extract, witch hazel extract, peach extract, grapefruit extract, and portulaca oleracea extract.







The texture of this like a pink gel but once applied and applied on the lips it changes it color to white foam and then to bubbles, after 5 minutes you have to rub the bubbles until they disappear which will gently remove the dead skin from the lips and then simply wipe the lips with a wet tissue and apply lip balm.
It really works and great as it is gentle and one thing I also noticed that it is good at removing lip stains as well.


UNPA LONG LASTING WATER MATTE FIT 24/7 LIP STAIN




Unpa Cosmetics lip product is made with film-forming fitting material with high pigment content and moisturizing effect on lips. Avoiding one downside of most lip stains which is when the lip shade loses its accurate pigmentation throughout the day, Unpa 24/7 Lip Stain holds on to its true colors from the first application throughout the whole day.
This tint came in a beautiful sleek white squarish packaging which is sturdy white plastic. You get the 5.6g of product in total. These lip stains are available are in 6 different shades and they design them according to the time of day the lip color suits you the most. As I love warm tone red- brick colors so I got the shade 6PM which I called red-brown and this is beautiful red brick shade. The formulation of this stain is quite unique as it is watery in consistency when applying but once applied it dry down to semi-matte finish. The texture of this Unpa lip satin is lightweight and airy. This tint does not have any scent to it. The thing surprised me the most is how highly pigmented this lip product is , it’s really good.







 As this formulation contains Hyaluronic acid it does not dry the lips out and keeps lips hydrated and does not make them flaky or sticky. It stays on for a quite a long time and looks pretty good skin, I keep this tint/stain with me mostly. It does transfer a tiny bit after the application but not after some time. I definitely recommend checking this one out.



UNPA PEACH ME UP BRIGHTENING CREAM




Unpa identified each customer by dividing them into different skin types and tones. Therefore, it is targeted for everyone to use.
It is made up of 71% peach extract, not purified water. It tones up cream that can be used moist and light without aggregation. It is created with Susan Jo who is a beauty creator.

The packaging is absolutely lovely and convenient. This came in tube form with the pump, easy to travel, and hygienic. You get 40ml of cream.
This contains 71 percent peach extract, niacinamide, adenosine, shea butter, avocado oil, and 0 percent purified water, This is one of easiest tone up cream to work with because it does blend easily and looks pretty natural as compare to other tone up cream I have tried so far. The texture of this cream is also on the lotion side and it works well with a warm and cool tone as well. It is really lightweight and absorbs beautifully into the skin. This has a peachy scent to it which makes me love it even more. Nothing can beat the blendabilty and lightweight of this one as it does moisturize and hydrate at the same time.









 It works so well under makeup as well. Overall It’s my favorite tone up cream overall but sadly it got expired but this is definitely I will purchase in the future.

You can Unpa products from their official site and Kmall24.

Review: Unbound Lab Hibiscus Smoother Pad


There have been many trends Korean beauty which has come and gone so fast but I am some are still lasting which I personally admire for example the cica products which people still love and so do I. One of the trend was pads as well, honestly, in the starting I didn’t like it because mostly brand makes quite a harsh one but nowadays there are more mild pads are coming in market which makes me like them actually. Today I will be talking about the toner pad I actually love but before that, you know what is back in trend this summer in Korean beauty, it is none other than Vitamin C as many brands are introducing their Vitamin C line.
