If you’ve been in a creative block with your makeup, maybe it’s time to try something new, right? I’ve been in the same boat with my makeup since most of my items are from pre-pandemic (don’t judge me). Life’s too short to not have fun with what you buy.

The other day I was scrolling through my social media and I stumbled upon the most unique and adorable makeup collaboration that I had seen in a while. Everybody, you have to see the cuteness that is Clio Cosmetics’s Koshort in Seoul makeup collaboration!

What is a “Koshort?”

If you’re unfamiliar with the term “Koshort,” it’s a cute abbreviation to the Korean shorthair breed. This cute little cat is known for its long fur, adorable big eyes, and its curious personality. These traits are what make the breed so popular among Koreans. Although their origin is not clear-cut, Korean shorthair cats have been around since the 8th century.

The Korean shorthair cats come in multiple colors, usually gray or orange, and are known for their distinct stripes. If you are allergic to these beautiful babies, then maybe you can settle with this cute makeup collection instead.

Koshort in Seoul Eyeshadows

What stopped me in my tracks to talk about this collection was their eyeshadow palettes. Sure, the shades are so nice and perfect for warm-toned, everyday looks. The main focal point that set them apart from other makeup palettes had to be the oh-so-adorable stickers.

Clio Cosmetics is marketing this as a unique customization experience for buyers since you can decorate your palette however you’d like! They did such an amazing job with the small details. For example, some of the eyeshadow shades have little paw print embossings on them. So it can look like you’re touching a cute cat paw if you apply the eyeshadow with your fingers.

The first palette that Clio Cosmetics released for this collection is called “Napping Cheese.” The inspiration for this palette comes from the fact that Koshorts can have a cheese scent. So, they’re basically like having a napping cheese buddy as a pet. Would you like to have a pet like that?

The stickers are probably what seal the deal because it has a cute kitty napping with cheese (because the palette is called “Napping Cheese”). I’m such a sucker for cute packaging and punny names, so take a look at the palette for yourself down below.

Clio Cosmetics also added another tier of exclusivity to persuade other makeup collectors and suckers for cute things like myself. You can get their more sturdy, epoxy stickers of napping Korean shorthairs if you purchase in South Korea. Let’s just say I’m jealous. I can literally see myself using the stickers for my phone case.

If you want to purchase this palette, you can buy it for $34.00 USD on Stylevana. You can save 10% off your purchase on the website if you use my discount code INF10OHMY at checkout!

Clio Cosmetics didn’t want to leave the gray Koshorts or cool-tone lovers out of this amazing collection. They have another version for people who prefer cool-toned pinks or mauves, which I think is also a good everyday palette to have on hand.

This second palette is called “Lazy Soft Paw” and is inspired by another cute aspect of the Koshort cat: their paws. Clio Cosmetics described their paws as fun to touch, like a gummy bear. This is why you see the gummy bear eyeshadow in their palette.

I don’t know which palette I find cuter because this palette has gummy bear stickers. I dare you to try and choose just one palette to buy. Take a peek at the shade names because they’re so cute to read.

Of course, I had to show you what their Korean-exclusive version of this palette looked like. It’s so dreamy to look at. I’m sure you would want to get your hands on it, as well.

If you want to purchase this palette, you can buy it for $34.00 USD on Stylevana. You can save 10% off your purchase on the website if you use my discount code INF10OHMY at checkout. Both palette styles are available to purchase, so get it while you can.

Koshort Will Save My Skin, Too

The last part of the collection might be my favorite because it’s a customizable foundation cushion. The Koshort Kill Cover Founwear Cushion is SPF 50 and PA++++ so it can provide protection from UVA and UVB rays for longer periods of time compared to the usual sunscreens. As someone who doesn’t wear foundation much because of the lack of SPF, my eyes are set on purchasing this cushion to try out.

Like all other aspects of this collection, the Koshort inspo is seen with this product. You have cute food stickers but also an adorable set of cat pawprints on the cushion itself. There is also a cat paw-shaped foundation puff inside! Talk about ultimate attention to detail.

The foundation is available in three shades only, with the darkest being Ginger. If you have a fair to light-medium skin tone, this foundation can work out for you. Korean makeup usually has more lighter skin tones, so the shade range isn’t as wide as Western makeup brands.

The foundation shades are all also available for $36.00 USD on Stylevana. You can save 10% off your purchase on the website if you use my discount code INF10OHMY at checkout.

Cat Lovers and Makeup Lovers Unite

Whether or not you love cats, we can definitely agree that this collection has something for everyone! If I had to choose something to purchase, I probably would try out the foundation cushion because of the SPF. Catch me wearing it out this summer!

People will love the eyeshadow palettes if in need of something that can be used for everyday use or for more minimalistic makeup. There’s a perfect mix of dark shades, lighter pastel shades, and shimmers to make you look more awake and glamorous for those special occasion looks. You can even use the darker shades as eyeliner so there’s a lot of possibilities with this collection.

Are you ready for the summer? I’ve been prioritizing stocking up on sunscreens to get through the dry summer weather coming up. Under the blazing heat, my dry skin needs all the support it can get to protect itself from UV rays that can make it prone to wrinkles and irritation.

Luckily, I was gifted this beautiful sunscreen from @thankyoufarmer_official @go.picky @pickyrewards in exchange for my honest review. I used this sunscreen in my morning routine for about 2 to 3 weeks before coming up with my thoughts mentioned in this post.

Stay Protected and Stay Cool

Safe Sun Fluid Age 0880 with PA++++ SPF 50+ from Thank You Farmer is currently sold at $22 USD for 100 mL on Stylevana. It is a mineral sunscreen that calms down the skin while providing lightweight moisture and a dewy finish. According to the Thank You Farmer, this sunscreen is supposed to lower your skin temperature by 4 degrees Celsius and is low irritation formulated, free of mineral oil and parabens.

By the way, you can purchase this product at a cheaper price and with 10% off your total if you buy it with my discount code INF10OHMY at Stylevana. If you purchase at least $59 USD worth of your Kbeauty essentials on Stylevana, you can get 15% off your order with that same discount code. I do receive a small percentage of the commission if you use my code.

This sunscreen works hard to keep you protected because of some of their ingredients listed, including:

• Centella Asiatica Extract and Mild Protection Complex(Camellia flower extract + Matri Caria flower/leaf extract, Pancratium Maritimum Extract): These ingredients work together to soothe your skin and reduce inflammation from dryness and environmental stressors.
• Titanium Dioxide: This ingredient is used in skincare for SPF protection and for thickening the product to enhance anti-aging properties of other ingredients.
• Stearic Acid: Stearic Acid serves as a binder for skincare and helps provide moisture to reduce irritation and dryness that can cause pimple formation.

What makes this sunscreen also worthy of consideration is that it is free of parabens, mineral oil, silicone oil, artificial colors, benzophenone, and phenoxy ethanol. It is a sensitive-skin-friendly formula.

Formulated for the Perfect Summer Skin

Protective Packaging

I’m a huge sucker for skincare packaging, and Thank You Farmer did a great job with it. The packaging is adorable with the little hat illustration and the stripes! It literally screams “summer in a bottle” vibes. On top of that, the bottle packaging is a sturdy plastic so that the heat doesn’t affect the potency of the sunscreen formula. Although the sunscreen is in a bottle, I had no worries with squeezing out the sunscreen fluid that is inside. I can definitely see this being in use during a beach trip for both my face and body.

Lightly Scented

There’s a light scent that’s normal with mineral sunscreens that has these chemical-y notes to it. It doesn’t smell plasticky, but more like the thick creamy lotions that you use. The scent does fade out over time as the formula dries on your skin.

Easy to Blend

The sun fluid is a creamy milk, lotion-like consistency that can easily be spread out to provide a thin protective film on your skin. I love how easy it was to blend into my skin compared to other mineral sunscreens. This blend time does take some time for my medium skin tone because it can leave a slight white cast if not spread well enough.

I can imagine it might take longer to minimize this white cast for darker skin tones. If you have a darker skin tone and want to try this product, I would suggest applying it in sections to your face. Start with a pea size amount for a section of your face and work on gently blending it into your face till it disappears. Then, repeat on the rest of your face, neck, and decolletage area.

Icy Sensation

Now, I do not have a skin temperature thermometer on hand for me to test the cooling effects of this sun fluid. I can only go by personal experience post-application. I was very impressed with how ice-cold my skin was feeling after application! Applying this sunscreen can be best described as drinking an ice-cold beverage after being dehydrated under the blazing hot sun. Thank You Farmer’s Safe Sun Fluid is the ice-cold beverage that your skin desperately needs. If you have any areas that are prone to sunburn on your face or body, this cooling effect will be super relaxing for you.

No Sign of Breakouts

After using this sun fluid multiple times during my morning routine, my skin looks perfectly fine. It didn’t break me out after multiple wears to the gym, too. I was also wearing a face mask while working out during this testing period and not once did my skin break out. It could also be because I did a great job at double cleansing, but this sunscreen does it’s job of supporting my skin. My skin continued to have that super dewy finish that made me look more awake and hydrated.

A usual issue of sunscreen would be encountering that stinging sensation around the eyes, whether you like it or not. You can experience this while washing the sunscreen off or due to sweat dripping down your face. This sunscreen did not provide any of the stinging.

More of a Tone Up Sunscreen

This is only a note of precaution for darker skin tones. I think just keep in mind darker skin tones might need to spread out the product more to blend it in since it is a creamy white formula. If you’re using this before makeup, there’s no issue then.

This product falls along the trend of tone up sunscreens that are meant to brighten your complexion. Therefore, you will likely notice that your skin will look a bit whiter than usual once you rub the product on your skin. You can notice this brightening effect in the before and after pictures that I posted above.

Would I repurchase?

Yes! I think the price to product quality is justified for this one. I love how my dry skin feels during and after using it. My skin felt super moisturized when using it so I can consider this being a moisturizer sunscreen duo that’s cheaper than my fave LRP Toleraine moisturizer. Super excited to use this up this summer, especially since I have a few trips I plan to do.
