♡ It's Skin Babyface Collection ♡

みなさん、こんにちは!

Gasp, shock, horror! A second blog post in the space of a week?! Well... it's about time I got my fat ass into gear and so voila... here is a blog post about one of my latest favourite cosmetic products. Hmmm now where to begin with this adorable creation?


Well at first glance you can see how splendid and cute the design is of the packaging! Using little baby angel wings was definitely a smooth move for this range but I do wish that the wings were actually attached to the physical main body of the containers and not just the plastic outside... major disappointment there because baby angel wings on the containers would have scored 10/10 from me! But the cute little faces kind of make up of it I suppose...

One Step Base and BB Cream


It is my first time using a coloured base underneath my BB cream... I've tended to steer towards the usual primers but after a while they just dried out my skin and didn't really help underneath foundation. So using the one step base was an... unusual surprise for me because it actually worked! The green colour helps with redness on your skin and I have that in my cheek area and it really toned down my redness and made my skin look pretty even as well by covering up as many pores as it could. The BB cream... I was expecting the light shade to be too dark for my skin tone as I keep having these problem with certain brands so again, like with the one step base, I was indeed surprised to find that the BB cream actually is exact to my skin tone and doesn't make me look like a goddamn oompa loompa. I also like how non-greasy this cream is so I use it just on its own without the need of powder these days which makes a nice change.

Petite Pact and Pore Perfect Powder


The petite pact is just like every other compressed powder pact in my honest opinion... there isn't really anything special about it except that it matches exact to my skin tone like the BB cream and it almost has a mattifying effect like Skin Food's Peach Sake compact powder... but the cute little face embedded into the top made me not want to use it but alas I did. The pore perfect powder is one of my favourite things of this particular collection because it works just like translucent powder with added effect of minimising your pores... something I definitely want to keep doing because my pores are so large and it's frustrating at times. I use the pore perfect powder every so often with my BB cream to give a more mattifying look to my skin as well as wanting to make the BB cream last for a while longer without having to keep applying every so oftren throughout the day.

Babyface Mascara


I like this mascara. It's not too watery nor is it too thick like others I have used in the past and it helps to cover all of my lashes without making them look so spidery. What I like is that I can use this for a nice natural lash look without using two or three coats... one is plenty enough. Also I can use this mascara for when I'm wearing false lashes, this is the mascara to use to help make my lashes blend in with the false ones... if that made sense? All in all this is a great mascara and for the price it's one to purchase again in the future.

Magic Tint Bar


This product is something I'm still deciding over. I've only used it a couple of times because it's very good at clinging to the crevasses of your lips and when you have extremely dried, cracked lips the look is not so hot to look at but it does help moisturise your lips ever so slightly. The colour is the plus side to this, it's like a peachy... coral colour which makes a nice change from all of the nudes and reds I have in my collection... I need to branch out to more colours really so this kind of helps break that routine of the same colours over and over again.

↑↑ Note that in the picture I am wearing false eyelashes but you can just about see the mascara on my lower lashes. Also I wasn't wearing the tint bar at this particular time either ↑↑

Overall Verdict: ★★★★★
My overall opinion about this collection is that it's great if you have a price limit... all of these products were purchased from Koreadepart for less than $10 each (mainly in the $5-$6 region than others) and another plus is that they're travel sized so can easily fit in your purse/handbag if you need a quick touch up when you're out and away from your make-up collection. It's Skin made a great little collection and won on so many levels with the cute... baby angel wings... baby faces on the packaging and they do get a massive thumbs up for how well each product actually is and that it does what it says on the packet. I'll definitely be branching out and getting some more items in this collection and maybe even branch out and purchase some skin products from this particular brand for sure.


Thanks for reading!
