No to Chapped Lips: TonyMoly's Ferment Snail Lip Treatment Stick Review

Hello Lovelies!!

Again, this is a repost from my IG Account. :)

Last year, being my office near SM Megamall, I was always on the lookout for beauty products, especially Korean ones. My curiosity for Tony Moly started when I encountered the brand while watching a Korean show on an Asian Channel I guess Mnet? Not sure really. It was a show featuring a Korean model named Irene and a Korean Idol and they were like surveying the make-ups of highschool students--and most of them own Tony Moly make-ups and I was like * o *

But first, Ferment Snail Lip Treatment? Say whuuut?

Confusing right? But I believe what they are trying to say in a not so "eww" way is that this lip moisturizer is basically made from snail secretion...yeah...I know, SLIME.

Moving on, let's discuss the benefits of this popular "Snail Slime", shall we?

Hyaluronic acid - moisture binding agent and aids in creating collagen.
Glycoproteins - water-binding moisturizer. For skin rejuvenation.
Proteoglycans - skin molecule like collagen.
Antimicrobial - cleansing ability
Copper Peptides - collagen and elastin production booster.

All in all, this mucus is packed of moisturizing goodness! Lovely! And let's thank Tony Moly for making in convenient for us! To be able to put all these moisturizers on our lips without any snail touching it. :D Asian Skincare at its finest! xD

What? TonyMoly's Ferment Snail Lip Treatment Stick (Timeless Collection)

How much? 475 Php not sure though, bought it last year (too expensive for my taste)

Where? TonyMoly, SM Megamall

Pros:

Good lip balm, my lips didn't chap ever since I used this
It has SPF 13, which protects the lip from the harmful uv rays (another thing I love about Korean Products)
It has long lasting effect, I only apply it 3 times a day: after taking a bath in the morning, after brushing my teeth when lunch time's over and before I sleep. :) I also love the packaging and the fact that the cap is not loose :)
It also doesn't melt easily, which corresponds to looong time of usage :) (update, bought this product last year and still using it up until now although it's nearly empty *frugal living alert*)

Cons:

Expensive, but worth it :)
Not tinted, however it does bring back your natural lip color :)

Will I buy again? Yes, when I become rich. XD

Recommend? Of course! Give your lips some lovin' and moisturize it! Mwah!

Love Rating: ♥♥♥♥♥ (because it was worth it although expensive)

My Cheap but EFFECTIVE Pimple Drying Cream: Katialis Review

Hello Lovelies!! This review is like an updated review version of my previous post on my IG account . Being thrifty, I tend to search for DIY's when it comes to that time of the month wherein my "visitor" a.k.a menstruation visits me with a friend named pimple or sometimes zit.

When I Let Belo Touched my Armpit: The Belo Beauty Deo Review

Hello Lovelies! Being born a sweaty-pig, I struggled during my puberty days, it is either I end up stinky and soaking wet or having a overwhelming smell of deo and yellow stains on my uniforms--because I just don't know where or who to ask or open up for it is a pretty personal and embarrassing stuff. So moving forward, I end up ruining my armpit, it has chicken skin and uneven skin tone. For years I've been using all-natural alum deo, be it powdered or the solid one, just to save my shirts & blouses from stains but the downside is that it doesn't have any antiperspirant property--which is kinda embarrassing, not just for girls but for everyone! Dyahe bes! Hindi nakakaganda. Then one time, my Mom made me use her Avon's Quelch Deo--and it quite good. I didn't sweat and there's no stain--but then again it just my first time of using it--so I wasn't convince yet, I told myself that I need to try it for a longer period. However, the thing is I don...
