Uguisu No Fun Hydrating Soap


Uguisu No Fun Hydrating Soap



Uguiso No Fun is a traditional beauty product. Uguisu no fun is a Japanese term means "nightingale feces". This product is literally made from a nightingale called the Japanese bush warbler (cetitia diphone). Who's poop was harvested in nightingale farms in Japan, it is dried in a dehydrator and it is ground until it turn into a powder in a special container that continuously working for 18 hours. The Uguiso no fun is a two hundred year old product and still used up to now. 


At first, I'm quite hesitant to use a soap bar to wash my face. I've never ever tried using a soap to wash my face except for the Acne Aid since it is considered as a medical soap. I came into a point that I'm so desperate as NO facial wash was able to cure/heal my pimple/acne. So I thought why not give it a try since the product is already known in the world.




Uguisu No Fun Hydrating Soap contains poop of the nightingale which produces a lot of minerals that is used to make beauty products, such as protein, fat degrading enzymes, and a whitening enzyme that could whiten the skin and can even out the skin color.  


My REVIEW:
Pros:
1)Not easy to melt and would definitely last long
2) Nice scent that could calm your skin
3) Made my skin tone even
4) Works well on pimple/acne marks, gently and slowly heals acne/pimple
5) Very effective for oily skin, it keeps your skin smooth
6) Although it gently dries up the acnes but it DOES NOT peel your skin
7) My skin became moisturized 


Cons:
1) Soap Bar (would make some people quite hesitant to try it)
2) Not commercialize well
3) You can only buy it online



Overall, I'll give it a 5/5. 
Because it really lessen my pimple/acne marks and control my skin from producing too much oil and it made my skin moisturized and silky smooth to touch. I also love the whitening effect of this soap to my skin.

Lancôme Rouge In Love Lipstick 340B Rose Boudoir


Lancôme Rouge In Love Lipstick 340B Rose Boudoir




I got this as a very generous gift back in December (thank you!) after it was pinned on my Pinterest wishlist for over a year. Lancôme Rouge in Love lipsticks were launched a couple of years ago and there are 31 shades available. Rose Boudoir is in the Boudoir Time or B group, which are cocktail shades.



340B Rose Boudoir is vivid pinky-coral with a creamy finish that is very, very similar to Bourjois' Fraise Remix and a colour that is more suited for spring/summer time. It's not just the colour that is similar, but also the formula. I've often said that Bourjois' Rouge Edition lipstick are the best formula I've tried and Lancôme Rouge in Love feels almost spot on. It's another pigmented, lightweight formula, but Lancôme's feels just a touch creamier. I need one, maybe two swipes for full intensity, however, I also like to blot it and wear it as a sort of a stain. Like that it gives that lovely flush of colour that really brightens up the face (wearing it like that here). It doesn't dry out my lips, nor does it settle in lines. It is slightly rose scented, but it's barely noticeable.




There are no outrageous claims on this lipstick, but a rather down to earth promise of a 6 hour wear. I'd say it lasts about as much, but of course, if you eat or drink in the mean time you might want to refresh the colour, though itfades evenly without leaving a ring of colour, so it's completely up to your own preference of whether you like that half-worn off or the full intensity look.





The tube is heavy, metallic and daintily chic. It's smaller than most lipsticks, though it still holds 3.4g of lipstick which as much as the Bourjois one and 0.4g more than a MAC lipstick.


As far as dupes go, I'm always very conservative with that word, but Fraise Remix and Rose Boudoir are incredibly close. Fraise Remix is pinker, however, I tried them side by side on the lips and I don't notice much of a difference. Pink About it, on the other hand, is less pigmented and matte. (The lipstick on the right in the second picture is Maybelline's Shocking Coral, which is much pinker.)




I don't know the exact price because it was a gift, but I believe it was about 28€ in Müller (I'm guessing). It's 27.30€ on Feel Unique.


If you ever wanted to treat yourself with a good lipstick, these are incredible, however, the drugstore range offers another gem formula, Bourjois' Rouge Edition that feels almost exactly the same for about a third of the price, it's just the colour range that is different.



Have a great day!
