New product on Korean skincare market...CC Cream!

Usually, whenever I go to Seoul, I end up lugging back loads of Korean beauty products. And what I love about Korean beauty stores is that they give you tons of samples! Anyway on my last trip there, I received a beauty sample from Tony Moly titled "CC Cream"...I was rather intrigued to what it was so I went to do so research.

Basically, CC Cream (Colour Control Cream) is a lighter version of BB Cream and offers more skincare benefits than BB Cream (like moisturising effects). It's also known as a 거짓말 Koh Jid Mal (Lies) Cream because you can put it on and bluff your boyfriend you have no make-up on, and he would believe you.

I tried the sample and found it to be very light. It does offer less coverage than your BB Cream and can be used on days when you just don't need to wear much make-up. It does feel better on skin, due to the skincare elements too.

 

Meeting A-Prince in Seoul

So during my recent Seoul trip, I had the chance to meet up with new rookie K-pop group A-Prince! They just debuted end-2012 and their concept is more veered towards the cute pop side (although this may be subjected to change as the years go). I met them at a nice cafe in Seoul for an interview for Teens Magazine (May Issue, Out now!).

Firstly, I have to say rookies have this fresh charm to them that makes them really lovable  You can see the stars in their eyes that make them endearing. The interview went by well. The leader Sung Won, is the "visual" of the group and is very confident and frank in his answers. When asked which member he would date, he chose "myself, because I'm a funny guy!". Woo Bin is the youngest (maknae) of the group and together with Si Yoon, both of them are cuddly cute. Min Hyuk is the "sexy" one and bears a resemblance to Min Woo of Shinhwa. Seung Jun is the "smile prince". He is the best at English and is a really nice person.

Anyhow, you can catch them in Singapore on May 18! Details of their fanmeet can be found here http://aprince.eventbrite.sg/ . I will include one more pic of them once I get my other camera. In the meantime, here's me with A-Prince and I passed them a copy of Pop Rock Love. ^^v. Support these sweet and talented guys!
