Packaging: It has a beautiful matte packaging with green tea illustration on it.  At the packaging, one can recycle into origami bird which is really nice.  Everything is written with Japanese. There are 13mini size kit kat inside.

Ingredients:  Sorry I can't read Japanese so can't talk about what is inside this green tea Kit Kat.

Texture: It is wafer kind of biscuit.  Uji matcha green tea is used for this sweet matcha green tea.  There are 3 green tea Kit Kat varities  (Sweet Matcha Grean Tea, Matcha Green Tea, Sweet Dark Matcha Green Tea).  Sweet Matcha has light scent of green tea and there isn't any bitterness in it.  It is slightly less sweet than the one we have in Malaysia but it is still pretty good.

I am sorry for the not pretty look since it melted a bit because of my super hot weather.

Overall: I love green tea and this Nestle Kit kat mini sweet matcha green tea.  It is good to eat it with plain tea that does not contain sugar.

REVIEW ON KOREAN JINRO CHAMISUL SOJU FRESH

Hi beautiful people,

Popular Kpop star, IU model for Jinro Soju for 2020.  In 2019, it was Irene from Red Velvet.

Jinro is the largest manufacturer of soju of 97% spirits sold in South Korea since 1924.  Traditonal soju is an alcoholic drink made from rice, wheat or barley while modern soju uses starches such as potatoes and sweet potatoes.

Today I am going to review Jinro Chamisul Soju Fresh.

Jinro Chamisul Soju Fresh

Jinro Chamisul and with hangover prevention pill

The history of alcoholic drinks comes from the distillation method developed by alchemists in Arabia during the 10th century.  Mongolians introduced Soju in late Goryeo to Korea.  In the 19th century, continuous distillation process was invented and so is the first alcoholic beverage plant.

Packaging: Jinro Chamisul Soju Fresh is filtered four times through bamboo charcoal carefully selected from environmentally clean regions in Korea.  This is one of the best original flavor of soju - Chamisul Original.  It comes in a glass transparent of bottle of 360ml, 200ml, 400 ml, 500ml, 640ml and 1800 ml.

No sure it is available in other countries but heard that it has temperature sensitive paper that turns blue once it is cold.  The curved label is in the shape of dew.

Soju is usually served at 8 to 10℃ and not frozen.

*Soju stored from the refrigerator is usually at temperature of 4 - 5℃.  

When you pour it to the serving glass it is usually 8 - 10℃.

Ingredients talk: 

The ingredients inside this bottle are water, rice and fructose.

참이슬 means "real dew".
Jinro use Finnish fructose, which is called ‘healthy sugar’ and is a plant-based sweetener.

The alcohol content is 17.2% which is quite high so one can get drunk if you drink a lot.  Also since it is a simple alcohol it can be used in mixer of cocktails or food with alcohol content.

Texture&scent :  It does look like clear water with scent of alcohol.  The nearest I can describe is the lighter version of dry Vodka.  It does have slight bitter after taste.  As none of my family could finish the whole bottle of 360ml, it is used in cooking now . To people that can drink it is like water.  It also the same scent as the Chinese cooking wine.

Review: It depends on individual preference of alcohol. As I am aging, my taste of drinks and alcohol changed too.  It is a pretty nice social drink if you are into higher alcohol or the scent of vodka or as mixed drinks.

Overall: Jinro Chamisul Soju Fresh is for someone just looking to try out Korean alcohol as Soju.

There is a hangover pill that you can check it out HERE if you are interested to look into something to protect your liver and just to reduce the severity of drinking too much alcohol in your system.

If you are wondering what categories this fall into, it is actually a hydrating toner.

Pyungkang Yul Essence Toner

Pyungkang Yul Essence Toner is made with 90% Astragalus Membranaceus extract to moisturize and protect the skin. It also helps with cell regeneration, smoothing out uneven textures for a healthier complexion.

How to use:
After cleansing your skin, gently pat an even layer of Pyunkang yul Essence Toner on your face and neck.


1. Skin vitality
- Rich nutrition contained in‘Isoflavonoid’in Astragalus Membranaceus Extract instead of purified water helps regenerate and protect the skin.

2. Highly concentrated essence
- Viscous and highly concentrated toner is rapidly absorbed into your skin, leaving it moist and soft.

3. Moisturizing layer
- For easily dried skin, let it be absorbed 3~5 times to help remove inner dryness and make moist skin all day long.

Purpose: It revitalizes dull and dry skin and enhances skin protection resulting in effective and healthy skincare.

Packaging: The dark blue plastic bottle is really aestheticly pleasing.  It is also easy to pour out the toner since the opening is just the right size.


Ingredients talk:
Ingredients:
Astragalus Membranaceus Extract, 1,2-Hexandiol, Butylene Glycol, Bis-PEG-18 Methyl Ether Dimethyl Silane, Hydroxyethylcellulose, Carbomer, Arginine

Paraben free, sulfate free, alcohol free, Eu allergen free, silicone free and fungal-acne safe (malassezia).

It is one of the 50 fundamental herbs used in traditional Oriental medicine.  On skin,  it is to enhance your skin immune system and reduce inflammation.  It is a great skin ingredients for acne prone skin and for sensitive dry skin type.

1, 2-Hexanediol is a preservative that is non irritating.

Bis-PEG-18 Methyl Ether Dimethyl Silane is unique silicone that works with water liquid so it is a nice emollient.

Hydroxyethyl cellulose is a thickener.
Arginine is antioxidant that increase skin hydration and protect skin.

Still do an allergy test at a small part of your face (ex, at your jaw) before you put it on your face since there are some people that mentioned they have allergies with the ingredients of this toner.  Also there are some people such as pregnant, nursing mother, transplant recipient, autoimmune disease and young children should not use it.

Texture and Scent: To me, it smells of slight sweet herbal.  It is very thin like water with very slight viscosity and absorbs fast into my skin with just patting.

Review:  I have been using it for more than a month as a hydrating toner.  It doesn't irritate my skin and calms my skin redness.  I find it useful to keep me hydrated when I layer it 3times during the day since I am living where humidity is at 92% at all times.  I pat it on my face without cotton pad.  

Using it alone as moisturiser at night isn't enough for my combination skin.

It doesn't cause me fungal acne or clogged my skin.

Overall: It is a great hydrating toner.  Unless you are allergic to Astragalus Membranaceus or

pregnant, nursing mother, transplant recipient, have autoimmune disease and young children.this is a good hydrating toner even for acne prone skin.

REVIEW ON KSTYLES KOREAN WORD BOOK FOR EVERYDAY 400WORDS

Hi beautiful people,

Let's take a break and learn something new.  Today is a book for learning Korean language which is called Hangul .  So here is the Kstyles Korean word book for everyday #400 words which I do find really useful if you just started learning Korean.

Kstyles is a Korean startup that produces content that is fun to help foreigners to learn Korean easily and having fun while doing it.

There are visualised short story videos with 5 to 7 languages subtitles.  400 Korean Word books, 1 to 1 Korean tutoring and useful apps for learning Korean language and culture.

Packaging: Good paper materials that is not easily tore apart.  It is full coloured with photos to accompanied the Hangul words.  The cover page is simple but really pretty and showcase Korean unique features.

The wording is clear and easy for me to read.  It has categories such as family, numbers, personal pronouns, taste,drink, food, weather, direction, date, colour, greetings, meal, action etc.

Price: Affordable at 9000 Won (USD7.55)

Review: It is a great book for beginners in learning Hangul.  The words are everyday words that one will need to use such as numbers and daily greetings.  The words that accompanied it is clear and simple.

There is even free one to one Korean tutoring.

Overall: It is a good book to start with to learn Korean language.  It is really good if one of the pages has Korean alphabet ( that vowel and consonant) and what each character looks like as well as how to pronounce it.  If there is a QR code to scan for the sound on each pages it will be even better since it is easier to learn knowing how it sounds like along with the visual picture of it and the words.

REVIEW ON MCCANN LUNCHEON MEAT

Hi foodie,

Can food has become a luxury item during this social distancing time.  I hope everyone is staying safe.
In time like this there are many people that stocked up on can meat and this McCann luncheon meat is sold out in the supermarket and even online.  I was lucky to get this can meat since it is getting hard to buy fresh food and I don't really want to go out often to get them.

McCann Luncheon Meat 迈康新加波午餐肉 is a premium product from Singaporean processed food company established in 1995.  The company's signature product line, Golden Palm Chinese Sausages, was awarded the Promising Brands award in the Singapore Prestige Brand Award 2014.

Ingredients:
Pork, Potato Starch, Soy Protein, Spices, Sugar, Salt, Flavouring, Superbind P270 [E2451(i), E450(iii), E450(ii), Dextrose, Salt, Antioxidant E316, Sodium Nitrite E250].
May contain soy


Packaging:  The aluminium can is pretty sturdy with a simple design.  You don't need a can opener since with just pulling the ring to open the can.  Then just scoop out the luncheon meat.  It has 90% pork with some other ingredients inside.  The pork are from high quality meat.  I don't eat spam or luncheon meat fresh from the can.  Being Asian we cook our luncheon meat so a simple fan fried or just place it inside oven for a slightly more flavourful taste.

The meat is pretty good as I can taste that it does have more meat and the scent isn't strong at all.  I enjoyed it being source of protein since at times like this getting meat is getting harder.

Review:   Overall, McCann luncheon meat is a nice luncheon meat which I will buy again in the future.

REVIEW ON ETUDE HOUSE SOON JUNG 5.5 FOAM CLEANSER

Hi beautiful people,

Review on Etude House Soon Jung 5.5 Foam Cleanser.  A lot of people love the barrier cream and the toner from the same line but I was more interested in this foam cleanser that is gentle for my acne prone skin.  It is a also a cleanser for every skin type.

Packaging: It comes in a tube without a box.  The plastic tube is clean and has simple minimalistic design with ease in dispensing product.

Ingredients talk: 

Ingredients 
Water / Aqua / Eau, Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate, Glycerin, Coco -Betaine, Potassium Benzoate, Sodium Chloride, Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer, Citric Acid, Tromethamine, Disodium Edta, Panthenol, Pentylene Glycol, Madecassoside

Paraben free, sulfate free, alcohol free, Eu allergen free, silicone free.   It is not fungal-acne safe (malassezia). The ingredient being Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate. 

Since it is not stay on your skin for more than 5minutes on your it is okay unless you do have serious reaction towards other ingredients derived from coconut.  There are also panthenol and centella asiatica which is to help with the hydration but since it is a cleanser it is not going to do much other than avoiding irritating your skin.

The rest the ingredients are for hydration, emulsifier, texture, pH adjusting and preservatives. 

Texture:  It has a very faint scent of plastic and doesn't linger or is too strong.  The product comes out in soft slight watery paste which does have dense soft creamy bubble.  It does have pH5.5 which is the closest to skin so it doesn't irritate the skin. It has very light unscented product which doesn't linger or strong.

Review: It cleanses the skin without leaving residue and is non irritating to my skin.  I find this not drying at all compare to the whip cleanser from the same line.   Do use another cleanser such as oil cleanser or micellar water since this cleanser doesn't remove sebum proof makeup.  Since it is a cleanser as long it doesn't irritate the skin, I think it is a great cleanser.

Overall:  It is a simple very affordable gentle cleanser with pH5.5 for every skin type and even for acne prone.  I do recommend it for any skin type including acne prone skin.
