SU:M37 SECRET PROGRAMING MASK REVIEW

The SU:M37 Secret Programming Mask is a mask mixed with natural fermented ingredients from 80 vegetables.  This essential mask recharges nutrients and moisture of the skin instantly.

When I use a sheet mask I look for several things. First is, effectiveness. Second is whether or not it can stick on my face and feel comfortable (or even better, I don't feel it being on my face after awhile). This is because I don't have the patience nor the time to sit there for 15-20 minutes. I need to be doing something while I put on this mask and if I need to fix it every minute because it's falling off my face then that's an instant fail. Third is whether or not it absorbs. If I don't feel a difference in the wetness of the sheet mask after 20 minutes.. then there is a problem with the compatibility of the mask with my face.

Effectiveness: It didn't even out my skin tone as effectively, it didn't take away the redness as effectively, and it only brighten up s bit as effectively.

Adherence: The texture of the mask sheet is thick and it is pretty hard to move around my face around but it would still stick really well. 

Absorption: I think the absorption of the mask  pretty well. 

Summary:

Brightens a bit, calms my skin tone a bit, took away the redness a bit.

Quality: 3/5 because it did a bit of everything 

Value: 2/5 because it's $8 per mask!

Repurchase? No :(

THE HISTORY OF WHOO HAS ARRIVED IN SYDNEY

I have a good news to you!  The History of Whoo has arrived in Sydney.  It is located opposite Market City in Haymarket Chinatown. I couldn't believe my eyes while I saw this shop when I walked pass! This shop used to sell clothes for youngsters that I never stepped in before and now has turned to the beauty shop that I love to buried my head in there!

Finally, I had time today to go into the shop at my lunch time.  Two of young and beautiful ladies approached me with friendly smile.  I straight away told them I love to know all about these brands.  Although it is The Whoo Shop, the shop has a few famous, luxury and top range brands such as O HUI, SU:M37 Beyond and of course The History of Whoo!

(The History of Whoo is next to Marigold Restaurant and you can see the shop isn't that small but has its own special and unique products in there)

(The History of Whoo Myeong Ui Yang Stick and Spot Brightening Ampoule)

I told them my concerns were my pigmentation on my cheek and also my fineline on my forehead.  I am still looking for a product that could make it lighten and not becoming deep wrinkles.

She introduced me to The History of Whoo Myeong Ui Yang stick and Brightening Spot Ampoule.  
She said these both are treatment set and mainly  to treat pigmentation and fine line in forehead and laughline. I was totally drawn by the packaging  as they look very luxury!

You could also find other brands in the store. You could find variety range SU:M37 and O HUI. As you could see mostly come in a gorgeous pack that has customised to your skin concern, either basic use, hydrating or anti-aging concern.  Similar to OHUI, it is also nicely put jn the box.  Most of these boxes are cintain one or two full size and the rest are in travel size bottle. I was told that those bottle could last up to a month to try before ourchase a full size.

Below is SU:M37 Dehydrating Mask for acne skin and Brightening Mask for dull skin $8 each.

On the weekend while visiting Darling Harbour, I found out there is a new Kim Sun Young openned right opposite Event Cinema at George Street.  I got really excited because I was checking out a few Korean Beauty Brands and reading to get to know the products online.  When I saw this I was over the moon as now I could test the products myself and enjoy the texture.  

For those who don't know Australia seems the hardest  access to the world beauty brands and dont even mention Asian Skincare range. I was so excited that I asked the shop owner if I could take photos. ^.^

I got myself a few skincare range(how can window shoppi ng  in this moment?!). Normally I willl use it about 4-8 weeks to review them as our skin has renewal cycle every 28 days.

For now enjoy the photos and if you visit the shop anytime, I would love to know what you bought!
