First Impressions: Too Cool For School Egg Mousse Pack Review

Thursday, July 9, 2015

Weeee!!! It's first impressions time :) This week I'm reviewing the Too Cool For School Egg Mousse Pack. I got mine from Memebox, which is one of my favorite websites for buying Korean cosmetics, so if you want one too, you can pick one up HERE. As for a little background for this product, it is one of Too Cool For School's best selling products.

Let's get to the breakdown...


Purpose...
Like a mask made out of real eggs, this mask is meant to improve the moisture balance of your skin as well as firm and add elasticity to your skin.
Application...
In the video, I used a ping-pong ball sized amount like the directions on Memebox said, however, I'd say you could use a little less. I used the amount pictured above and then ended up having too much product! haha. Then, just smooth it on your skin in an even layer :)
Process...
After you have spread the mask on your skin and massaged it for a minute, then let the mask sit for 10-20 minutes or until all the bubbles have popped.
Texture...
When applying this to your face at first, the mask is SO smooth. It's actually quite enjoyable massaging this into your skin. However, after all the bubbles have popped, your skin feels very sticky. This was my biggest complaint with this mask, but you just wash it off so it's really not a big deal!
 Effects...
After I washed this off my skin and patted my face dry, my skin felt incredibly smooth! I can definitely see why this is a best selling product for Too Cool For School. My pores felt smaller, my skin felt so soft and smooth, and my face didn't feel overly dry!
Results...
Like I mentioned above, this mask left my face feeling so nice! Definitely a nice pick-me-up! I feel like this would be great for all skin-types because I have dry skin and my face felt clean and clear but didn't feel dry (like some masks that suck all the moisture from my skin!). For oily skin types, I feel like this would be a nice way to purify your skin and remove excess oil!
Overall: **** (and a half) 
Application: ****
Benefits: ****
Results: *****
Packaging: ****

Well that's it for my review! Do you like the graphic I made for this post!? Haha. Also, don't forget to check out the video I made about this product and subscribe to my channel, The Beauty Breakdown! Love you guys :) 


My Mini Korean Beauty Haul From Memebox

Tuesday, May 26, 2015

Hey everyone! Today, I'm writing about a recent mini haul I received from Memebox. I can't wait to try these products out and review them for you guys! I tried to pick out products that I'd never tried before and that seemed unique to me.

But first....

I wanted to let you guys know my experience with Memebox. First of all, their customer service is FANTASTIC! They're very quick with their responses and truly seem to care about their customers. They're prices are fairly reasonable considering they have an office based out of the United States and right now, you can get free shipping for orders over $30! That's totally worth it in my opinion! On top of all that, they have a nice selection of products, as well as a lot of collaborations with fellow Korean Beauty Bloggers.

Ok now onto the breakdown of my haul :) 

I first picked out the Etude House Precious Mineral Any Cushion in Honey Beige W24. This is the first cushion foundation/bb cream I've ever used! When I went to Korea last summer, I didn't buy a cushion foundation because all of the sales associates said my skin was too dark :( haha. But now that I'm a little lighter and with a little bit of bronzer, I think I can pull this off. This one, in particular, is supposed to be really nice! I've heard tons of great comments about it. Plus, I've tried it a couple times and so far, I really like it and it matches my skin pretty nicely! Review anyone? ;)
I've also never tried a CC cream from Korea. So I decided to try the Etude House Moistfull Super Collagen CC Cream. I've tried this one out a couple times as well and LOVE this! It matches my skin nicely and really doesn't look like I'm wearing foundation. It just looks like my skin is really healthy and flawless, which is what I think everyone wants, right?!
Next onto some skincare items I picked out. I got the Too Cool For School Egg Mousse Pack. Eggs, in general, are supposed to improve the elasticity of your skin and make your skin look and feel radiant. I've yet to try a mousse pack like this (or something from Too Cool For School for that matter!) and am curious to see how this works...
Finally, I picked out the Elizavecca Milky Piggy Carbonated Bubble Clay Mask! This is a brand I've never heard of so we'll see how this product is. I've also never tried a carbonated bubble clay mask. We'll see if this is actually different than using a normal clay mask, which I tend to like!
Wow, now that I'm writing this, I'm realizing there are a ton of firsts in this haul. Let me know if you've ever tried any of these products, what your experience was like, and if you want a review on any of them! Thanks for reading :) Don't forget to check out my channel, The Beauty Breakdown, where I talk about Korean beauty triends, products, etc!
