KKcenterHK: Products Review By xoxojen



I was recently contacted by KKCenterHK.com offering to send some product samples to me in exchange for a review and use of my photos on their web page. 
Their shop is well laid out and easy to navigate and they stock a variety of products from eyelashes to clothing.
They let me choose a few items from anything in their shop, so I chose a scented and slightly purple tinted base coat that came in a beautiful bottle, and a coppery glitter top coat. 


The Best Sense base coat is scented lavender and while I didn't notice it while applying, it smelled great after it dried! The consistency of this base coat is thin so it easily glides onto the nail. I learned that with this one, it created tiny bubbles. So I played with it and figured out that I need to swipe only once and use only one coat. The base coat is clear on the nail, but I like that it looks purple in the bottle. :)


Next, I painted my nails with Loreal's Not a Cloud in Sight, a great color to go with the Ouqian glitter topper, B076. edit in: I just learned that this glitter topper is no longer in stock. Sorry guys. =/
The glitter topper has a very strong scent until its completely dry, it doesn't bother me but I thought I should mention it. The glitter in this polish is very sparkly and the stars are holographic! I don't think I have ever seen holo copper stars before! I wore one coat "dabrushed" on for even coverage.




The products arrived quickly for how far they had to travel to get to me and they were both securely wrapped in many layers of bubble wrap, then packed inside a mailer envelope. The staff was friendly throughout and at first very communicative with me but once I had the entry ready, I had to wait a while and follow up twice for a reply for the discount code. 

You can use this code xoxojen for 10% off at their store: KKCenterHK.com it will expire in January 2014. Have a look at their shop and let me know what you think!




Thank you, xoxojen

Review: Best Sence Milk Nail Polish Remover [BESE-B015-Milk] by justtisems



Today I have a very interesting item, Best Sence Milk Nail Polish Remover [BESE-B015-Milk], to share with you that I had received from KKCenterHk for review purposes.  KKCenterHk is a Hong Kong based company, whose site provides you with so many wonderful items.  From nail art supplies to makeup to even wigs.  That is just to list a few!


As soon as I saw that it had milk and nail polish remover in the title, I knew I had to try it.  I always go by "Never knock something out, until you try it." 

The Best Sence Milk Nail Polish Remover comes in a 55ml bottle, and about 4 inches in height.  It is to be mild to the skin, and very nourishing for your nails.


It looks exactly like milk doesn't it?  As for the scent, not really milk I would say.  It reminds me more of milk lotion.  Yes still contains milk, but does not make me think of the milk we drink by smell.  Just bylooks.    The smell is not overwhelming what so ever, and I found it a bit more pleasant than regular nail polish remover.  Despite me being used to the smell of acetone already haha.


I decided to remove the nail polish I was wearing, Sephora Pantone Universe in Reflecting Pond.


It didn't remove it instantly for me, but it did the job.  Not to mention it left my fingernail and cuticle moisturized.


I wouldn't use this product for in between swatches.  I find it more useful during those moments where you're going to give yourself a manicure, and show some love to those cuticles and nails.  One of those "Hey it's time to detox my nails."  This is rather greasy/oily feeling, which is part of the moisturizing process.  A quick tip, when doing this have a damp paper towel or a moisture wipe (wet ones whatever you call it), since if it gets anywhere it does leave a residue of oil or stickiness if you do not wipe it quickly.  Overall it's a pretty neat item to try out.

I found this Best Sence Milk Nail Polish Remover to be rather very interesting and totally different from the nail polish removers I use.  You can find this product on KKCenterHk's site and it goes $7.46 per a bottle.  You could also get a 10% off your purchase by simply entering the code: JUSTTISEMS

**This item was received for review purposes and in no way am I entitled to give it a 100% positive feedback.


So how do you feel about this product?  Something seriously different right?  What are your plans for this weekend?

I hope you all have a wonderful day and thank you for stopping by my blog!

Review: Best Sence Plant Aromatic Quick Drying Base Nail Polish - Camomile by justtisems

Today's review is a nail polish base coat that I had received from KKCenterHk for review.  It's another product from the company Best Sence and it is their Plant Aromatic Quick Drying Base Nail Polish [BESE-N310-Camomile].  Camomile is basically Chamomile.  It really depends upon how you spell it.



I was interested in how this base coat would work out since it had a scent of Chamomile with it. 
But what really drew me into this product was the bottle itself.  haha the Chamomile base coat scentwas just a bonus!  The bottle has a smooth wooden handle.  From their picture on the site, I thought the front and back of the bottle had ridges on it.

Only the back side had ridges which I thought was pretty still.  This base coat is 13ml and is made from natural essential oils.  It repairs and nourishes your nail.  At first sniff (straight from the bottle) it smelled slightly weird.  I have no clue why I smelled it right away.  But of course after it quickly dried, you could smell the Chamomile.  Not overwhelming at all just when you put it close to your nose.  



It glided on smoothly and applied nicely.  Drying time was within a few seconds.  I loved how soothing my nails smelled, that I actually kept sniffing it.  If you follow me on Instagram and saw my Christmas nails, this was the base coat I used.  It still looks nice after 4 days and no signs of chipping yet.  Of course after applying a top coat the smell soon went away.  I did realize with just the base coat and base color polish, the smell was there when I sniffed it.  It isn't overwhelming in any way, and I am sensitive to smell.  So that was a really good thing.  

KKCenterHk carries several other scents of this collection.  The other scents/flavor is Lemongrass, Jasmine, Lavender, Rose, and Violet.  Each Best Sence Plant Aromatic Quick Drying Base Nail Polishbottle cost $8.17, which is fine with me since that is almost the cost for the base coats I buy.  

You could also use my code "JUSTTISEMS" to get a 10% off your purchase.  
Also make sure to check around their site to find all the other wonderful nail supplies, makeup etc. thatthey carry!  

Have you tried scented base and top coats before?  What sort of scent are you into?  

Thank you for stopping by my blog and I hope you have a wonderful day!

K M O Cuticle Revitalizer Oil *Rose Oil* by mymakeupmania



 It's so cold here in Korea in the past few days and my skin feels and looks very dry right now. Oh!.. my poor hands! They are already over dry and if I don't moisturize them 3-4 times a day the skin looks very old kinda :( So I do for my cuticles. I need them look moisturize and well-groomed. Best suitable cuticle moisturizer for use during the day for me is K.M.O Cuticle Revitalizer Oil. And this is my second tube and it absolutely great for use in the daytime because of the non greasy texture and it still moisturizing really nice. But for the night time I prefer cuticle balm which is much heavy in texture.

This unique natural revitalizing complex blend of peach extract, mango extract, calcium, safflower oil and vitamins to nourish moisturize and protect the cuticles and nails. Panthenol (Vitamins B-5) penetrate the nail surface and carry calcium vitamins and nutrients to the nail matrix. This patented carrying complex is a sure way to get these important ingredients and nutrients directly to the nail matrix.

Usage: Brush on your cuticle lightly and massage gently 3-4 times a week. You will achive longer, stringer and beautiful natural nails.
Ingredients: Grapeseed Oil, Amino Acids, BHA, Natural Keratin, Organic Calcium, Sunflower Oil, Vitamin A, Vitamin D, Sesame Oil, Vitamin B-5, Vitamin E, Silk Procaine, Natural Pan phenol, Thymol, Methyl Glucose Ether.


Anastacia's experience: I've tried Orange and Rose oils so far and both of them has the same ingredients and texture, obviously they work the same. It's sort of dry oil because it hasn't any greasy feeling after absorbing into the skin. But at the same time it moisturizing my cuticles very good. Soft bristles of the brush make easier application of the oil to cuticles and under free edge of nails. It smells "rosy" (not harsh tho) and I like it. Even if it red jelly in color when apply it looks clear on the cuticles. Absorbed very quick without oil film as it do most other cuticle oils. I only wish the tube was larger size because it small and honestly I can finish it in a few days (I don't follow the instructions and use it every day). But! my nails and cuticles feel very good now and I want spring come a bit faster than soon LOL~

Anastacia's experience: I'm using this cuticle oil every other. It has a soft white bristles brush and twisting "thing" to get the product out. It smells like a regular body oil to me, not to strong tho. Nothing about orange scent at all. Absorbing quickly, not greesy, obviously very nice moisturizing. Because of the brush it's very easy to use on the sides of nails and also under nails too. And I wish there is more product in the tube, it's kindda small amount of product. But I can see how happy my cuticles are now especially at winter time when skin gets over dry and need some extra moisturizing.
