Jeju Aloe Ice Gel Lotion and Shampoo Review

Jeju Aloe Ice products has been hyped up recently and I just can't stand not owning and trying these products out


There are a lot of Jeju aloe ice products popping out in the market but this one was from Watsons Fresh Skinlab. I got the gel lotion and the shampoo and among other its products includes gel, conditioner and wipes. I also bought these two and plan on using it this summer while going to the beach. I went to the beach several times and these products has helped me in some ways.


Soothing gel formulated with Jeju Aloe Vera that moisturizes and refreshes skin from intense heat of the sun. Can be kept refrigerated for a more enhanced soothing effect


It is a gel-lotion. For this, I tested it for the soothing and effect. It says it is more advisable to put in the ref first for maximum results but I didn't do that.



It feels cool upon application without that mentholated feeling to achieve the cooling effect which is actually a plus

 contains 300 ml of product


Does it help to cure sunburn? No. I had a sunburn on my arm and while it does soothes it, it doesn't help fade it away. Not actually advisable to apply on scars, skin inflammation, eczema or sunburn--probably the severe ones. 

It is also said to be used to achieve that 'glass-skin' finish. It is moisturizing enough and not at all sticky. Though I haven't used it long enough to have that glass skin finish, it's a great additional step for skincare. 




Jeju Aloe Ice Shampoo

What made me bought this shampoo is the scent. I love its mild scent.

It has cooling effect upon lathering onto your hair. It helps remove itchiness from dandruff and pollution of your scalp. I used this after the beach because my scalp was rather irritated from all that sea water and sand. I can feel that my hair and scalp is clean after wash and leaves little to no residue.

The only downside I could tell is that it is sticky on my hair. When my hair dries up, it is sticky. It also makes my hair to have more of that volume due to the aloe ingredient but my hair being thick already, it is not an advantage. It might be best if used with Jeju Aloe ice conditioner.

Etude Precious Mineral BB Cream Review


I'd choose BB cream over foundation any day. And of course, if I am getting my hands on BB creams, I will most likely buy it from Etude House. For me it's the best place to buy BB cream.

BB creams works like a wonder, it has skincare benefits in a makeup




This BB cream comes with a slim layer fit formula than smoothly glides onto skin even when you apply several layers, helping to express clean, bright and smooth skin with its mother of pearl


For this BB cream it has 4 types:

Cotton Fit - Matte Finish
Perfect Fit - for full coverage
Bright Fit - Dewy Finish
Blooming Fit - Sheer Finish



I got Blooming Fit and Honey Beige W24 is the perfect shade for my skin tone. It has 60 g of product and a pea size of the product goes a long way.

Other benefits of this BB cream includes:

-Whitening
-Anti-Darkening
-Anti-Wrinkle
-SPF30/PA++

Packaging: Comes with a tube with a pump and I think there's no better way to dispense the product. I appreciate this rather than the usual twist cap. It's more hygienic this way



Coverage: 3/5. Pretty fair. It's just right for me as I don't need heavy coverage but if you need more coverage you can add concealer

It has a 'brightening' finish


Lasting power: 6-8 hours. It doesn't feel itchy or irritating on my skin even if I am wearing it for the whole day (or night) as I sometimes forget to wash my face. It's actually still there. The dewiness is still there. It goes well with any powder be it translucent, setting, or 2 way cake powder, it doesn't cake up. It is not sticky and makes my complexion fresh all day
