Hey beauties, welcome back!
How's your Christmas celebration going on? I hope everyone has gotten themselves some amazing gifts this year!
Anyway, so recently while I was doing my Christmas shopping at Jurong Point, I chanced upon a new store - Ilahui Korea and I was immediately being lured in by the great varieties of the goods they have in store.
The first thing that caught my eye is the big bear sitting right outside of the store and I thought it resembled a little too much like Brown from Line huh.
Anyways, after one round of walking around the store, I realised that this is very much like Miniso but a bigger version. You can find yourself looking at makeup products, to skin care products like masks and even shower gel. They have also a wide range of home products like cushions and lamps. You can even get toys here for the kiddos! It's honestly everything under one roof and the best part is, their price tags are very friendly too.

| Not gonna lie, some of their products look a lot similar like some brands you can find in our usual drugstores... |
After walking around, I eventually got myself four items to try out.
The first item that I got is the Rice Water Facial Cleanser that also comes with a silicone brush. You are supposed to press the pump and then foam will come out to the brush and that's when you can massage the foam gently to your face in a circular motion. This facial cleanser costs $8.90 and I thought it is quite worth the money since it also comes with a brush. I personally really like the brush as it is shaped in this small oval shape that seems to fit even the smallest area around my nose with the pointed part. On the other hand, I do not quite like the facial foam as I thought it is a little too watery and I had to press a few more times in order to get the foamy result. Also, the smell is a bit too strong to my liking. PS: it does not smell bad, in fact, it smells a little too fragrant, like perfume, geddit.
The second product that I had gotten is the beauty sponge that comes in two per pack. This two sponges cost me $3.90 and if you do the math, it is approximately $1.95 per piece and that is even cheaper than Daiso! I have been testing out this sponge for weeks and I have to say, I am very impressed by the quality! In fact, this sponge has already replaced my actual Beauty Blender and I find myself reaching out to this more regularly instead. I love that it is very soft even if you use it dry because honestly I do not really like to damp my beauty blender since I do not need my makeup to have a dewy finished. Definitely recommend this to you girls out there!
Next up, is a three piece brush set that includes a eyeshadow brush, a lip brush and also a brow brush.
One thing I absolutely adore about these brushes is the colour, it's baby pink!!!! I love how girly the brushes look like and it makes me want to reach out to them when I do my makeup. I have been using the lip brush for my makeup clients and I love the application and the shape of the brush allows me to apply lipstick easily on my clients. I also am digging the brow brush and it fact it is my current holy grail. I just can't live without this brush! The brush is shaped in this angled way that it allows me to do a perfect arch brow so effortlessly. And the hardness just makes everything easier! However, I do not really like the eyeshadow brush as I feel that the brush is too soft and it does not seem to take up any of the eyeshadow that I had tried it with. The entire set costs $3.90 and I think it is super worth even if I only use 2/3 of the set.
Lastly, as a lipstick lover, I definitely have to try out their lipstick range as well and this is what I got, a lipstick that is shaped like a crayon. How cute right? I bought it in 01 Red shade and I love love the colour so much! In my opinion, this colour is more of a coral red than a pure red red, if that makes any sense. I love how it is moisturising and does not focus on my lip lines. The colour is pretty long lasting as well and for the price at $5.90, I certainly think that this is a good buy as well!
So, that completes my post on this new found gem in Jurong Point. I am pretty much pleased with my purchases and I cannot wait to get more of their products to try them out! Happy shopping girls! XOXO
