[Review] Holika Holika Heartcrush Glow Tint Air

 I have reviewed the Holika Holika Heartcrush Glow Tint Air in detail on my before today I am sharing some new shades that were added to the collection recently 

Lip tint with airy-light pure shine. The air-light glow capsule bursts and creates transparent glow without stickiness. Infused with pure color pigment keeps the lips vibrant all day long. Moist holding system enriched with moisturizing factors keeps the lips moist all day long.

The packaging is cute with a heart shape tube. The sponge applicator has a bullet shape for precise application. All of these tints have sweet candy/ jelly scent. Tye packaging is color coded so you know exactly which shade you are holding. 

I am super happy to see a bright fuscia shade added to the summer collection. I love cool tones lip colors and this color is something I longed for a very long time . Hehehe

#12 Hong

A beautiful juicy red color reminds me of pomegranates 

#13 May 

 a bright fuscia color similar to exterior of a Dragon fruit

#14 Sing 

a nude peach color similar to peach tea 

#15 Fay

A grapefruit color wity hint of orange 

All the colors are vibrant and leave beautiful shine and stain on the lips. I love wearing these on daily bases. They are very moisturizing and keep the lips looking plump and juicy. The glossy part tends to transfer a bit but the stain remains on the lips for longer duration. Would recommend these to everyone.

HOLIKA HOLIKA Milky Dew Balm Pastel Haze Collection Review

 Holika Holika released these milky dewy balms as a part of their 2021 Pastel Haze Collection.  All of the lippies have pastel milky undertone to them. Just like the Water Vibe Tints these are color coded so you dont have to turn these upside down to find your favorite shade 

A milk blending that naturally penetrates into the lips like soft milk. Clear color layering where the transparent color feels like dyeing on the lips without clumping or unevenness.It consists of a neutral color that is good for use as a base and a milky mute pastel color that goes well with anyone.

Comes in a total of 5 lip colors. The packaging has a matte velvet feel to it and resembles a lip balm. I wouldn't recommend rolling these lip balms all the way up because it is hard to roll them back down sometimes. Also it is better to place them somewhere cool because in raised temperature such as 43C° these becomes malleable and mushy

#01 Jam  Is a beautiful brick red color. It has orangy tones to it

#02 Oat this looks orange in the tube but on the lips this comes off as a nude beige color. Very beautiful shade to wear with a smoky eye or gradient lip

#03 Curd : this is a little similar to oat but has peachy undertones to it . Looks nice on its own 

#04 Boba this comes of as beautiful rosy /mlbb color om my lips. 

#05 Panna my most favourite shade in the collection. This is a nude pink which has mauve undertones to it. Looks really stunning on the lips

These are designed as dewy lip balms. But surprisingly they are not glossy at all. The formula is more like a comfortable semi matte lipstick which keeps the lips moist for longer duration. The formula smoothes out dryness and all the dry flaky bits on the lips. This has a very distinct grapefruit scent and you have to swipe the bullet several times across the lips to get noticeable color payoff. These do rub off the lips on to the face mask during the day but since the formula is so moisturizing I am not too bothered by the reapplication through out the day. 

You can find these at yesstyle.com and Jolse.com

[Review] Holika Holika Gold Kiwi Vita C+ Brightening Sleeping Cream

 I use sleeping mask on regular basis. It makes significant changes to my skin texture in the morning. Specially on nights when I have a specially occasion/event lined up. I slather a good layer of sleeping mask to lock in the moisture and plumpness

Haenam Gold Kiwi, full of warm sunlight, mild sea breeze, and the spirit of ocher soil, delivers the fragrance and efficacy of gold kiwi to the skin. Kiwi extract and 12 vitamins alleviate minor skin blemishes. It fills the skin's nutrients as if it was a good night's sleep, making it vibrant and clear.

Cream that takes care of damaged skin during the day with clear and bright skin as if it were a deep sleep.

- Kiwi extract and vitamin C ingredients improve blemishes

- Improving dull and clear complexion

- Take care of dry skin by preventing moisture evaporation

The packaging is a bright yellow colored squeeze tube. Personally I prefer this kind  packaging over tubs because of hygienic reasons. The color makes this stand out on my vanity. 

This sleeping cream has gel like texture. It is easy to apply to the skin. Because of summer weather is very hot and humid. Which means heavy moisturizers are a big No No for me. Thankfully this is very lightweight. And absorbs easily into the skin . I have noticed small white capsules/granules suspended in the light yellow gel , which instantly dissolve on touch. It can leave a slightly oily film on the skin if you use too much so use according to your skin type. For reference I have oily skin and I use more than dime size amount for my face

I have been using this for two weeks now and I have noticed difference in overall skin texture and tone. My skin is a lot smoother. My makeup applies quite well too in the morning. My skin tone looks even as well. 

I also love the citrus scent of this mask. Some days I apply it to my face in the morning too as a regular moisture. The scent really refreshes me. Holika Holika Gold Kiwi like is available on Yesstyle for Purchase. 

Because of intense moisturizing properties I sometimes also apply it to my dry chapped hands at night before going to sleep. And I wake up with soft and healed hands in the morning. So if you work in hospital or wash your hands more than an average person . This is going to work so well for you

[Review] Holika Holika Pastel Haze Collection Piece Matching Blusher Clean Series

Watercolor cheeks or cloudy pastel cheeks are always treading in South Korea. They add an cute dreamy touch to the makeup. Holika Holika Launched these cute blusher this year as a part of their 2021 Pastel Haze Collection

With its unrivaled texture and soft granularity, the clear color naturally melts into the skin, creating vibrant cheeks. It is a powder-type formulation, but with a creamy and transparent texture, it provides pure color and soft water color and color development.The silky powder that adheres well to the skin adheres tightly to the skin surface, creating a long lasting cheek without modifying the skin throughout the day.

The packaging is really compact and tiny. I love the clear acrylic design. You can easily see the color through the transparent lid. But the bad things is that scratches easily so it can look worn down really fast

There are three colors in the collection 

# Clean Salmon ( a pastel orange toned salmon color like warm petals of tiger lilies) 

# Clean Pink (an innocent pastel pink color reminds me of pink cotton candy and strawberry ice-cream )

# Clean Lavender ( a pastel cool toned lavender shade which reminds one of crisp morning sky) 

All the colors are white based so they can look chalky on darker skin color. Since they are pastel you have to swipe your brush several times in the pan to see the color pay off. The powder are soft but does not crumble easily with fingers. I am very clumsy with blush application so I find this to be perfect for a makeup beginner like me as the colors are not heavily pigmented. I have noticed that these blushe  add a hint of sheen to the face . 

I usually wear these on their own for work but some days I layer this with a pigmented blush to create a gradient/water color effect

All of the colors are unique and pretty.  And they come with a really affordable price tag as well

Which one out of the three blushers is favourite ?
