Review: 3 Concept Eyes Glossing Waterful Foundation

Hello beautiful people! I'm back with another review. Today's review will be featuring the 3 Concept Eyes Glossing Waterful Foundation which can be purchased here. As you all know, I am a huge fan of 3CE products. So anytime I get a chance to try new products from them, I am super excited. There weren't much reviews I have seen on google in regards to this product so it makes me somewhat happier to be reviewing this today.

First things first on the realest, the packaging. Always and will adore the simplicity yet the sleekness of 3CE's packaging. It's really similar to MAC's packaging in my opinion.


The back of the box shows the name of the product as well as the shade color. What I find interesting is that it says SPF 15PA+ on the back but on the front, it didn't say so. It might be confusing for people that would want SPF in their foundation or vice versa thinking this product didn't have SPF but in fact it does. Y'know what I'm saying?
On the bottom of the box shows you how much product there is-- 40g, which is pretty standard for a foundation. Etc etc, the 3 Concept Eyes' website.
And here we go guys, what the product actually looks like! I'm so in love with the design of this foundation. It's so unique and looks completely different from all the foundations/bb creams that I own. Btw it's a glass bottle too so it just seems expensive hehe.
Like most products, the shade name is on the bottom. 
FYI: There are 4 shades to choose from for this foundation. It is divided to pink undertones and yellow undertones. 
For those of you that has pink undertone choose from; Milk Ivory or Natural Ivory.
For those of you that has yellow undertone choose from; Soft Beige or Nude Beige.
I am in the shade Nude Beige, which is part of the yellow undertone range and is also the darkest out of the two. 
It's a perfect match for me and if you're wanting to compare shades-- I'm an NC20 in MAC.
The foundation applicator is like a droplet. It has a ball point which makes it easy to apply it onto your face.
For reference, below are swatches on my arm.  As you can see, the color is really yellow but when blended it's a perfect match!


MY OVERALL OPINION: This is a perfect everyday foundation in my opinion. It's really lightweight and the coverage isn't too heavy duty which is nice for your skin. After all, for day to day purposes you don't need a full coverage. Your skin needs to breathe, people! When I applied it on my face, there was somewhat of a cooling sensation maybe perhaps due to the water(?) hence the name, Waterful? I don't know. The finish of the product is dewy, as imagined from the name Glossing Waterful. So I don't really recommend this product for those of you that has severe oily skin-- it will just make you look like a grease ball. But if you have dry skin, this is the product for you. It will make your skin look incredibly healthy :) I know that 3CE has a powder compact so if you are the type to set your foundation with powder, so check that product out! It will prolong your foundation wear time. 
In conclusion, I fancy this product ;)

As always, thanks for reading!

Review: Geo Eyescream Vanilla Brown XMU-A14

Hi guys! I have a circle lens review today.

Geo Coloured Lenses sells a huge variety of Authentic Geo Circle Lenses so please be sure to check them out! They offer free shipping + free case with every purchase.

My package arrived safely in about 1 week, which is extremely fast! It arrived in a little white packet which at first didn't seem to secure, but no worries-- inside was safely padded.

Inside the small baggie is the circle lens, lens case, the company's business card as well as a little sheet containing information about the lens.
This is what the lens vial looks like. So cuteeeeee :3
You guys don't have to worry if you're receiving legit lenses or not because they have Geo authentic stickers on them. Just follow the directions on the label to check!

This is my second time trying out lenses from the Eyescream line from Geo. And I have to say, I'm so impressed. I was in love with the first one I tried (Ray Ray Grey) and this one also did not disappoint!
Let me give you guys a little bit of detail on the lenses from the Eyescream line;

Diameter: 14.5mm
Base Curve: 8.70mm
Water Content: 40%
Life Span: 1 year

Now let's talk about the lenses ;)


Color: Geo calls this color Vanilla Brown. But in my honest opinion,  I think it's more of a hazel color  because it leans towards the green spectrum. But it's not one of those fake lizard green colors. It's very natural. I think I look mixed when I wear these lenses hehe.

Enlargement: These are 14.5mm which is the ideal size for me. My eyes cannot stand lenses larger than 15mm. These are the perfect size because it is not too small and not too big.

Comfort: All went well when I wore them. Of course like every lens, I have to drop a few eyedrops when I first put them on because my eyes are pretty dry. My eyes can go up to 8-9 hours with wearing these lenses perfectly fine.

SO ALL IN ALL GUYS. I think this has won the title of my favorite circle lens. I really like how I look mixed wearing these LOL. Like I am seriously impressed and can't stop staring at the mirror. Vain, I know. But seriously. I would get this pair again once my 1 year usage time is done.

Here are some selfies with me wearing the lenses.
