Review : Lumene Moisturizing Cream Cleanser with Arctic Cloudberry


This is how the packaging looks like. Orang packaging with a blue cap.
It comes with 150ml of product for about 169roubles (after discount).

This cleanser comes with a really pleasing scent with a faint orange scent and some herbs which smells like the chinese herb my mum used to brew when I caught cough. Reminds me of home.
The texture is creamy and it slightly foams up with water.

This cleanser claims to remove makeup but I don't think it does a very good job on that area, a cleansing milk is still needed to thoroughly remove base makeup from the face. If it's a bare face, then it cleanses well.
It also claims it is moisturizing. I don't feel it is moisturizing too. I still have dry spots on my face especially on my nose. My skin there peels like snake all the time.

I actually broke out using this cleanser. I do not have sensitive skin so I rarely do breakout on products but this, made me break out pretty badly on my forehead.Actually I thought it is because of the weather but when I decided to change my cleanser to Acmedia face cleanser from Japan, my skin stopped acting up, the pimples subsided so the culprit is definitely this cleanser.

For its price, I think this cleanser don't worth what I pay for, I could get a better cleanser from brands like Hada Labo, Acmedia and Jujumoist.

Jewelry haul #1

I have a jewelry haul. I got them from Diva.
Diva is an accessory line mainly aimed to teenagers. The price range is around middle range. Quality wise is middle, you get what you pay for.

I just got a few pieces here and there to wear it for Spring. Yes. It is finally officially Spring in Russia. Temperature has finally gone to the bearable stage.

A layered gold chain with pearls and a small bird charm.
I find this really chic and cute yet simple. Not too overbearing.
Matches all types of clothes.

A set of bangles. I bought this because it came with rose tinged bronze.
I find the colour pretty unique and ofcourse cute. We like rose tinged bronze dont we.

a set of rings. Really cute. I am really into simple yet chic jewelry.

simple yet elegant thin silver ring.
I fell in love with this upon seeing it. Looks a little like an engagement ring though.

Also I forgot to add this on my previous post.
I got a sample of this perfume. I am gonna review it soon.

Amuse pearl eyeshadow palette review.

This is a review for the Amuse Pearl Eyeshadow.
It retails at USD2.25. It is available on Nonpareilboutique.

This is the palette I own.

I got this palette on a wimp because of its price. It is just too cheap and the colours looks really pretty.

Pigmentation wise. They are really pigmented.
Top 4 colours.

Bottom 4 colours

They are really shimmery. Glitters are not chunky.
Texture wise. I do not like it. I do not know why, when I try to pick up colours, lots of it comes out as a chunk and the colour forms dent. It is not densely packed.
It is also really hard to blend. Once you put it on there. It stays as it is. I wont blend.
It has a lot of fall outs too.
It doesn't last long on the lid without a base. It goes away after awhile, about 2-3 hours.

Price : 5/5
Quality : 1/5
Colour Variation : 3/5 ( the browns turns out somewhat similiar after swatching)
Packaging : 2/5 (Flimsy..)
Pigmentation : 5/5

Overall. You get what you pay.
