Product Review: Shiseido Fitit Perfect Whip Cleansing Foam

Product Review: Shiseido Fitit Perfect Whip Cleansing Foam



Shiseido Perfect Whip Cleansing Foam is a popular Japanese cleanser that I picked up on Amazon. It is comes out as a foam and lathers up nicely. It has a nice clean scent. You really only need the tiniest amount as it foams up considerably. Less than a pea size will do. I find it to be non-stripping for my skin. This is the regular version. They also make a collagen version which comes in a pink tube.

March Favorites

March Favorites



Now that March just ended, here's a roundup of my favorite products from the last month.



Grape Lip Saver: a dollar find from Shop Miss A, this is essentially a grape flavor lip smacker. Smells delicious and is nice and moisturizing.



Paula's Choice RESIST Ultra-Light Super Antioxidant Serum: a lightweight antioxidant serum that contains hyaluronic acid, resveratrol, niacinamide, vitamin C, and vitamin E.

Paula's Choice C15 Booster: I add this to the above serum to give it an extra boost of vitamin C in the form of ascorbic acid and ferulic acid. Both serums added together are feather light. 



La Roche Posay Anthelios SX SPF 15 Daily Moisture Cream: my sunscreen of the moment. Contains mexoryl for added protection against UVA rays. It's also nice and moisturizing and doesn't feel too much like a sunscreen. 



Biossance Squalane + Omega Repair Cream: a really hydrating cream containing squalene. It does a have a scent, that smells a little sour. I love the hefty glass jar. 



Josie Maran Whipped Argan Body Butter: this smells like vanilla Dannon yogurt. It has a nice whipped texture and absorbs easily.

Brand review: Kylie Jenner Cosmetics

Brand review: Kylie Jenner Cosmetics


(L to R: Skin Concealer in Ivory, Koko Collection Gloss in Damn Gina, Ultra Gloss in Daddy's Girl, Ultra Glow Powder in Santorini)

Here is my review of the items I got from Kylie Cosmetics. I got these a few months ago.

Skin Concealer in Ivory: this is a nice concealer that comes with a doe foot applicator. The coverage is medium and it lasts pretty long. I used it mainly to conceal under the eyes.

Koko Collection Gloss in Damn Gina: this is a nice mauve color with gold glitter. It is a little gritty on the lips. The applicator is a brush and it similar to the ColourPop lipglosses. Lasting power is average for a lipgloss.

Ultra Gloss in Daddy's Girl: super sheer and smells like birthday cake. This has an oversized doe foot applicator and is non-sticky. It works best as a topper over other lipsticks.

Ultra Glow Powder in Santorini: this is the loose powder highlighter. There are a few shades and I selected Santorini, a champagne highlight. The pot is pretty small for the price. It is $14 for 0.14 oz. Because it is a loose powder, the highlight looks very fine.

Below are the swatches. All products are made in the USA. To get $10 off, sign up for the Kylie Cosmetics newsletter.
