I’ve been on my little CC Cream adventure lately and the latest one I tried was Secret Key Let Me Know CC Cream SPF 50 PA+++. Secret Key is a relatively new brand and I haven’t tried a ton of their products but a CC Cream seemed like a great place to start.
This like most of the CC Creams popping up in Korea promises a naked skin effect. In fact this is a fairly accurate description of these newer CC Creams formulas as they typically come in a single shade that self adjusts to a variety of skin tones in a lighter texture than you’d find in a BB Cream.
I personally recommend CC Creams for those with already good, blemish-free skin who want to perfect but not necessarily cover.
Read ahead for more details.

I’m loving It’s Skin Mini Tint Gloss! So much so I may need to go back and haul a few shades of this adorable little gloss. I picked this up in Mango Syrup recently and really didn’t expect much. But gosh, I was utterly gobsmacked how gorgeously this little gloss performs.
I’m actually just now discovering the joys of It’s Skin and so far I’m quite happy with the brand.
Take a look at this little Muse Approved gloss!

You read that right, DD Cream. Julep DD Creme hasn’t launched yet but the strong buzz of online advertising can’t be beat here as the first ever DD Cream makes an appearance on many an online ad across the board.
Known for their nail polishes one wouldn’t be expecting a DD Cream launch from Julep, but indeed, this is happening soon!

Etude House recently introduced a Dear Girls Collection which includes a new Dear Girls Lip Balm. Etude House Dears Girls Lip Balm, as cute as it is, is simply a repackaged version of Etude House’s Lip Perfume which I absolutely adore.
Off topic of the lip balm but I’m very EAGER to get my tube of Etude House Dear Girls Be Clear Moisturizer which I had a friend pick up for me in Korea (I should have just got it from E-bay as it would have probably arrived faster, now I’m left antsy to try it!).
Anyway…I’ll save that for my review when it arrives right now let’s discuss Etude House Dear Girls Lip Balm!

Quite curious about this one but sadly, the reviews are a little mixed that I’ve been reading!
Take a look!

Jill Stuart Jelly Blush is a new mousse-like blush that was released in Japan for Summer 2013. It’s available in five shade selections and quite reminiscent of Jill Stuart Jelly Eye Color.
I actually expected it to be WAY more shimmery than it is as the texture was so darn similar to Jelly Eye Color and we all know how sparkly Jelly Eye Color is right?
I was very excited about this blush launch as the product isn’t quite like anything I’ve seen before texture wise in a blush.
Let’s take a look!

I can’t go to Tous Les Jours without getting a Croque Monsieur and at least a half a dozen macarons. It’s Skin Macaron Lip Balm though contains FAR fewer calories.
Just sayin’! Macarons are my downfall, danger, danger, danger! This lip balm is far safer.
