Daiso Natural Pack

Contents: 80g

Price: HK$15 (When I got my first tube it was only HK$10, I've got one today and they have raised their prices again....)

Local of Purchase: Daiso

My Opinion:

This is my favortie cleansing mask, and I don't remember how many bottles I've already went thru, but I always have a tube around.

This mask comes out like a gel (infuse with charcoals) and dries into a film that you are suppose to peel it off. I love that it's in black and I can actually see all the gunks that's been plugged out.

 

I think this mask is really good for someone with very oily skin (that's me), because it does remove all oils and gunks from your pores, but if you have dry/sensitive skin forget about it.

 

The down side of this product, is when you try to peel it off, it really hurts, apart from removing all the gunks, it actually removes facial hairs and dead skin as well, but since I've already got used to it, it doesn't really bothers me.

 

Before this product I've been using Seikisho Mask White, and I think this is a very good dupe. I've noticed that with Daiso Natural Pack you need a lot more product, and the drying time is alot longer than Seikisho, but since Seikisho retails for HK$212, I'm willing to overlook.

 

Daiso Cleansing Cream

Price: HK$14.00
Contents: 80g

This cleansing cream comes out as a cream, but it is obviously that there are oil in it, because when I've finished cleansing my face and rinse off with water, my face was super greasy.

 

I don't really mind going over with a cleanser after removing my makeup, but this cleansing cream doesn't really removes makeup, and in order to prove it, I've swatched my hands with some revlon just bitten lip stain and try to remove it with this cleanser, and according to the last picture, the lipstain were still intact.

 

Conclusion, this cleansing cream does remove light makeup, but you can forget it if you are wearing water proof stuffs.

Daiso Detergent for Puff and Sponge

Contents: 80ml
Price: HK$12
Local of Purchase: Daiso

My Opinion:

I've read alot of raves about this product, but noticed that I use it in a slightly different way, I've noticed that alot of you like to dilute the product with water but I usually use this straight on my brushes, it will get rid of everything, including gel liners.

I think by using this product undiluted on your brushes, it will leave them really dry, so I only use it on my synthetic brushes, for my natural hair brushes, I usually stick with baby shampoo.

Daiso Shade Stick

Price: HK$12
Shades (Left to Right):

• 03 White
• 02 Green
• 06 Coral

My Opinion:

I've been using the NYX Jumbo Eyeshadow Pencil for a while, and came across these shade stick in Daiso, and got a few shades to try out.

IMO these shade sticks are not as creamy as the Nyx Jumbo pencil, and when I apply it directly to my lids, they tend to tuck. But since they are not as creamy as Nyx, they tend to dry faster and crease less.

Daiso Eye Shadow Quad

Contents: 4.5g
Shade: Eye Shadow G (Brown)
Price: HK$12

My Opinion:

I got this quad from Daiso because I read some good reviews about it, and since it was only HK$12, I wanted to try it out.

This quad comes in several shades and to be safe, I got the brown one....

When I've swatched it, all these shades are neither matte nor shimmery, they'll have a sheen on it. I've noticed that the lightest shade tends to be a bit chalky and there's not enough pigmentation on the darkest shade.

If you are a make up beginner, you might want to try this out, because it's actually very hard to go overboard with this quad (low pigmentation), but I don't think I'll be getting any other quads from Daiso....

Daiso Brush Cleanser
Contents: 80 ml
Price: HK$12

I used to wash my brushes weekly with a baby shampoo, but after reading all the raves about the Daiso Brush Cleanser, I had to try it. Well this stuf does thoroughly cleanse all my brushes, with the baby shampoo there are always some traces of blush or foundation left in my brushes (stains), but the Daiso Brush Cleanser just removes everything.


I had the Mac brush cleanser because the baby shampoo does not remove my concealer or gel liner from my brushes, but I've learned from utube to pour this in a spritzer and spritz it over my brush everytime I've finish using it. I've tried to do this for several weeks, but I just don't have the time to do this everyday (who has?), so I've just skip this step....


Conclusion: Mac is a goner while Daiso is a must
