Swanicoco Golden Time Leap Mask Pack Review

This is another one of the mask review series I have for my PR from Swanicoco. Today's mask review is for Natural Bio Cosmetic Dr.Syul by Swanicoco Golden Time Leap Mask Pack.

This mask is one of the 5 masks I received from Swanicoco. To check the other masks and other skin care products included in my PR package, you can visit my blog post about it here.

About the brand:

Swanicoco is a South Korean Beauty Brand that is known for their naturally-based, fermented and safe beauty products. They become the top natural cosmetics company in the Republic of Korea for their ceaseless bio development research to create a natural biosystem. Interestingly,  the word “Swanicoco” means that they pursue the elegance of a “swan” (feminine), and “coco” means “coconut” (as they offer botanical natural cosmetics).

Mask Claims:

• Firming
• Wrinkle-improvement
• Skin Moisturizing
• Nourishing

Key Ingredients:

• Hydrolyzed Collagen - can be used to help with firming and fighting against the aging process. 
• Acetyl Hexapeptide-8 - helps to diminish fine lines and wrinkles to reveal firmer skin.
• Copper Tripeptide-1 - helps to repair skin and fight wrinkles.
• Scutellaria Baicalensis Root Extract - serves as a skin-conditioning agent and help soothes skin.
• Adenosine - helps improve wrinkles and brighten the skin.

To sum it up, these ingredients help in anti-aging, wrinkle improvement, firming and brightening. 

Experience:

The packaging was cool and unique like the other Swanicoco masks. The essence was enough with almost a spoonful of leftover in the packaging. It has a scent that I can't determine (more of like a flower I guess) but it doesn't linger. The fit was okay, it was just a little long for my face and it bubbles up a little. 

I left it for 20 minutes and pat the leftover essence. Absorption was great and it left my skin feeling nourished and moisturized. I can't tell much about the wrinkle improvement part since I don't have that many of a visible wrinkle. But I sure did like this mask pack. I feel that it helps brighten my skin too!

It retails at $2.00 here.

Here is the full list of ingredients:

2GF Bio Mix Mask Pack Review

On one of my previous posts, I showed you my PR package from the brand Swanicoco. Over the next few days, I will be posting a detailed review of each of the products I received from them. I will be starting off with the masks.

For today's mask review, I will share my experience on using the Nature Bio Cosmetic Dr. Syul by Swanicoco 2GF Bio Mix Mask Pack.

About the brand:

Swanicoco is a South Korean Beauty Brand that is known for their naturally-based, fermented and safe beauty products. They become the top natural cosmetics company in the Republic of Korea for their ceaseless bio development research to create a natural biosystem. Interestingly,  the word “Swanicoco” means that they pursue the elegance of a “swan” (feminine), and “coco” means “coconut” (as they offer botanical natural cosmetics).

Mask Claims:

• Firming / Wrinkle-Care
• Moisturizing
• Nutrition

Key Ingredients:

The 2GF

• Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF) -  a molecular chain of amino acids that stimulates skin growth at the cellular level and may also help increase collagen production. 
• Fibroblast Growth Factors (FGF) - responsible for stimulating fibroblasts in the skin to make more fibroblasts (proliferate) and manufacture more matrix (hyaluronic acid, collagen, elastin).

These two Growth Factors both have the primary function of repairing the skin and producing collagen. By combining these two growth factors, a product that focused on wrinkle-care, elasticity, and anti-aging is created. 

Experience:

This is a bio-cellulose mask. I always enjoy this type of mask since it has better adherence and better moisture retention plus the essence can penetrate more efficiently. There was no noticeable smell and the essence was just enough. I left it for about 25 minutes and enjoyed the slightly cooling effect on it on my face which is soothing. 

 I removed it, my face is still wet. It took a while before it dried completely. I felt that my pores are a little tightened, my skin brightened and it felt smooth as well. I love this mask and would like to try this again.

Here is the full list of ingredients:

It retails at $4 here.

Stay tuned for my other masks reviews from Swanicoco!

VITCHELO FT49 Smartwatch - Health Features and more

This post contains affiliate links where I will receive a small commission at no cost to you when making a purchase through these links. For more information, check my disclosure page.

I enjoy being a product reviewer especially when I get to test great products from different brands. Today, I am sharing a closer look of Vitchello's FT49 Smartwatch I received complimentary for testing and reviewing purposes.

I am glad I was chosen to review this Smartwatch from Vitchelo since it has far greater features than that of my existing one.

It comes with a pretty box and inside is the smartwatch itself, the clip-on charger and the manual instructions.

The smartwatch has to be charged for 2 hours prior use. Then, you can long-press it to turn it on when it is fully charged. Now, to be fully functional, you have to download the application called Wearfit from Google Playstore.

The App was easy to set up, just connect it to the health band via Bluetooth and populate the user info and it's all set.

Main Features: 

1. Heart Rate Monitoring - You have two options for monitoring your heart rate - single measure by one-time test and a real-time test. You can either do it inside the Wearfit app or simply go to the heart rate mode/screen of the smartwatch and it will automatically read your heart rate.

2. Blood Pressure Monitoring - Like the Heart Rate Monitoring, you can manually monitor your BP in the Wearfit App or simply put the smartwatch in BP mode/screen while wearing it and it will automatically measure your current blood pressure.

3. Calorie Counter - this is being calculated based on the number of steps and the distance you walked.

4. Step Counter - this feature accurately counts the number of steps you made.

5. Sleep Quality and Duration Monitoring - this feature monitors your sleep progress and analyze your deep sleep and light sleep hours.

With its accurate health monitoring, starting to live a healthy lifestyle is made convenient by this Vitchelo Fitness Activity Tracker.

It can also do the usual things as follows:

1. Show the time and date -  the time and date format are sync with your phone settings.

2. Serves as a timer.

Additionally, it can also serve as an oximeter that measures blood oxygen level and fatigue limits to avoid exhaustion.

You can also set up wellness reminders such as follows:

1. Sedentary alerts
2. Stress level reports
3. Fatigue level reports
4. Oximetry

Furthermore, you can sync your Vitchelo Activity Tracker to your smartphones and get notified of alarms, reminders, SMS, and calls as they come.

I think this smartwatch/fitness activity tracker has everything you'll ever need. The battery life is decent and can last for a week. Its stylish design is perfect for every style. However, it should have been better if it has the ability to change the strap for more stylish options.

Other than that, this smartwatch is very useful for those with an active lifestyle and conscious of their daily health.

This will be a great gift for your loved ones and for yourself as well! Check it out here.

Have you ever received a PR package from a brand or a company? If you are a blogger or simply a product reviewer like me, you know that receiving a free box of goodies is always a good thing! Especially if it's from a great brand that you have been wanting to try. I recently received my first PR package from Swanicoco and I'd love to share you guys what I received.

• Today, Swanicoco boasts a collection of over 150 products, ranging from skincare and color cosmetics to hair and body care and, of course, Seong’s fermented soaps.

I recently found out that they have a so-called Project SWANs where they send curated products for chosen reviewers. I was so happy to stumble upon this post on their Instagram account and more thrilled when my application has been approved!

After 2 weeks from the approval notice, I received the much-awaited package. Although my box came in soaking wet for some reason, I was glad that the products inside were all safe. I was amazed to see an amazing assortment of full-size products!

FoodAHolic Grain Natural Essence Mask Review

Another face mask I have the pleasure of reviewing complimentary from Skin18. So let's see how my experience has been.

As most of you already know, I am a face mask lover. So when I discover the Blogger Pack Program of Skin18, I did not hesitate to apply! This was already my 2nd masks I received from them, and currently, I am a Level 2 Blogger in Skin18, which means, I received 2 masks.

Both of the masks I received was the FoodAHolic Grain Natural Essence Mask. This mask, as the name implies, contains grain extracts such as Phaseolus Radiatus (Mung Bean) Seed Extract, Oryza Sativa (Rice) Bran Extract, and Glycine Max (Soybean) Seed extract. These grain extracts claim to supply nutrition to the skin and prevent roughness and dryness to make it glow.

The main claims are NUTRITION & REVITALIZATION. But it also focuses on Smoothing, Wrinkle-improvement, Moisturizing, and improving the elasticity of the skin. 

This was my first 3D-shape mask. It was kind of an odd shape with a seam in the middle but the fit and adherence were both great, it actually covered my entire chin well. It has a nice smell and the essence was just enough, not too dripping.

I left it for 20 minutes on my face and my skin felt soft after.  It has no "wow" effect but it was a good mask in terms of being moisturizing and smoothing.
