E-bay haul: October edition

Hello, guys~!
I`m here again~ hehe I like online shopping a lot, which you could probably see from my posts :p As I am living in a small city in Russia *yeah, my country sucks when it comes to good shops*, I can get some awesome products only purchasing them online. And the best place for me is E-bay! The most purchased items (in my case) are: CD disks & cosmetics from Koreaclothes, shoes & accessories from China; food and beauty supplements from Japan.
No wonder, I am always waiting for something kkk
Right now I am going to show some things I have received during this month.

1. Tonymoly Baby Doll BB powder
+ Lioele Fresh sun screen SPF 45 as a sample

This is a second time I`ve purchased this powder. It means this product is awesome. Really! Because it`s a rare case to me to buy the same cosmetic product again, as I always want to try something new, to find a better one. 

2. Black knee-high stockings with spikes!
 
They are just super cool! Comfortable and look amazing ^-^ I wear them with skirt and my black creepers.

3. EOS honeysuckle\honeydew lip balm

I`m using it right now ^-^ Overall, it leaves a pleasant feeling, but there is also something I don`t like about it. I won`t write its pros and cons here, as I am planning to post a full review. Stay tuned!! ;p

4. MIZON Special Therapy Good Night white sleeping mask and A.C Care Solution Mark-X blemish after cream

Sleeping mask is wonderful! It works pretty good. But I haven`t really tried "blemish after cream". So, I might write more about these two products later~ *if i won`t be too lazy -_-`*

5. The Face Shop Rice Ceramide moisture toner & emulsion
+ The Face Shop Chia Seed cream and SKINFOOD Watery Berry blending cream as samples from seller

I have already included both Rice Ceramide toner and emulsion in my daily skin care routine. And as far I have only positive results. Gonna use them a little bit more, before giving better description. ^-^

6. Meiji Vegetable & Fruit Gummy with collagen

I have eaten them all, because the pack was small ^^` Candies look like little carrots (like on the front side of the pack) and has citrus and carrot taste. Very yummy!! And as they contain collagen, they are also good for skin~ *that`s why I like Japanese products lol*


p.s. if you are interested in some particular product from this list, let me know. I might write a review on it. 
^-^

Innisfree & The Face Shop - Seoul haul~

Annyeong~!! ^^
I continue sharing cosmetic products I have bought during my trip in Korea. The time has come to show some Innisfree and The Face Shop products. These two brands are in a list of my favorite Korean cosmetic companies. Mostly because of their "nature-friendly" concept, but also because of the high quality of the products and great results after usage.

1. Innisfree
Innisfree is a well-know Korean brand, which is quite popular in many countries. Innisfree Wine peeling jelly softener was one of the first Korean cosmetic products I have tried. And it was like 3 years ago.. So I have a long history of "relationship" with this brand. So far, I have only positive experience. And I hope it will stay this way. ^^


This is how Innisfree stores look like - white & green. ^^ 

So, what have I bought there?
o, how i love their eco bags!! ^^

  • Eco volume mascara #black
  • Capsule recipe pack: honey and peach
  • It`s real sheet mask: cucumber, acai berry and tea tree (one was as a present, but I don`t remember which ><`).

  • Jeju Sudachi soothing mask
  • It`s real sheet mask: shea butter, pomegranate and kiwi
  • Capsule recipe pack #apple
  • Samples: Green barley clear scrub (2 pcs.) and white tone up sleeping pack (2 pcs.).

2. The Face Shop
I have never tried the products of this brand before my trip to Korea. Of course I have heard about The Face Shop and I have seen some ads, but I just haven`t got a chance to test it. So while I was in Korea, I have thought it was a right time to buy something from The Face Shop store. Now I can say I am absolutely in love with the brand! Both the Nature Republic and The Face Shop are my favorite Korean brands at this moment. 

As you can see the concept of the store is almost the same as Innisfree`s

And this is what I have bought there:

  • Aloe fresh 95% all-in-one moisture gel 500 (!!!) ml
  • Mini capsule pack wash off type #cucumber
  • Real nature sheet mask: Avocado, Aloe, Acai berry, Mung bean and Red ginseng
By the way, The Face Shop sheet masks are awesome!! Don`t hesitate to try them out! ^_- 
And this super huge "bowl" of aloe gel.. mm it is super good, too!

Holika Holika & Tonymoly - Seoul haul~

Hey, minna~! ^^
Today I will continue my "series" of Seoul hauls. This time I am going to show another cosmetic products from two Korean brands - Holika Holika and Tonymoly~!!

1. Holika Holika
I like the concept of the brand - witchery and mystery. But as I am not interested in make up that much (I am going crazy when it comes to skin care though ;o), I couldn`t find lots of products at Holika holika shops, which I would really like.
Anyway, let me show how their shops look like ;p


And these are the products I have bought there:
  • Apple Shine peeling sheet (2pcs.)
  • Dessert Time Blueberry and Melon pudding packs
  • Baby Silky Foot mask sheet
  • Samples - Honey sleeping pack & Water March moisture full cream
  • Hand Warmer Moisture hand cream #berry
  • Baby Silky Foot mask sheet
  • Lavender Tea mask sheet
  • Samples - Prime Youth toner & emulsion and Face 2 Change Moist Cushion bb cream 

2. Tonymoly
Tonymoly is a good Korean brand, however I can`t say i like it that much. I have found there super good products (for ex.: Babydoll bb powder, Dear Me petite cotton bb cream and Dear Me Waterful skin), but I can`t say I am a huge fan of this brand overall. 
Anyways, here is the concept of the Tonymoly shops:
JYJ~!! ^^

And these are some products I have bought at Tonymoly~!

  • Tea Tree Seed cleansing cream
  • Natural Help Essence sheet mask: Ginseng & Makgeolli
  • Sample - Floria flower energy foam cleanser

  • Dr.Tony AC control pink dip spot serum
  • Changing U Magic Foot peeling shoes
  • Samples (girl in the shop was sooo kind to give lots of samples!!) - Floria whitening cream (3pcs.), Floria active peeling gel (2pcs.) and Clean Dew Broccoli cleansing cream (2pcs.).

Recent "gets". Ebay haul

Hey, hey~! ^^
I am going to make just a little update of what I have got recently from my e-bay purchase. I like shopping at e-bay a lot >-< And right now I am waiting to receive another 10 parcels lol
Later this month, I have bought two items from a good e-bay seller - f2plus1. He sells lots of Korean cosmetics from different companies. I like to buy at his shop because of good prices and super fast shipping. Besides, I have never ever had any kind of problems with this seller. So, he is highly recommended! ^-^
Anyway, lemme show the items.

1. Mizon Collagen power firming eye cream 10ml
+ 2 samples
(The Face Shop The Smim radiating moisturizing cream & Missha Signature real complete bb cream)

the cream is in very cute tube ;p

It might be strange, that i have bought a firming eye cream, because i am still young and don`t have real problems.. yet -_-` However, I won`t get younger and I thought I have to start taking some care about my eyes too. So there will be no wrinkles and tiredness all around my eyes. I have already started using this cream. I am planning to use it ~2 times per week, maybe 3. After a month or so, I will write a review *if i see any results haha*.

2. Etude house Dear my nails easy peel off base coat 10ml
+ the same samples as for the previous item ^-^


This is a base coat you should apply on your nails right before using any kind of glitter. It will help to remove glitter from the nails super fast, without using nail polish remover! So, you won`t waste the time and nerves, removing sticky glittering nail polishes!! 
Really cool thing~! ^-^

Yves Rocher haul + some review~!

Hey, minna~! ^-^
I think some of you might heard about Yves Rocher cosmetics. If not, please, check their USA (or one of their 15 country`s) site! This brand offers variety of skin, body and hair care products as well as make up for women, men and even kids. ^-^ I, personally, have been watching Yves Rocher for a while now. I have read some reviews, and observed their Russian site, too. What caught my attention? Their nature-care programs and presents policy. I like cosmetic brands which claim their products are nature-friendly or at least partially contains natural ingredients. Together with little presents they always give with even a small purchase, I feel happy to try Yves Rocher products. ^^
Almost a month ago I made a little purchase (it was my 1st time buying this brand`s cosmetics). Because I have never tried Yves Rocher before I have bought small version of different products. And how surprised  I was, when I have received a parcel within a week! wow~ kkk It was the fastest delivery so far! ^-^`
Here are products I have purchased:

list of all stuff I have received with prices ^-^
ta~dah~!!

Now let me show everything one by one!

Missha & SKINFOOD - Seoul haul~

Hello, guys~! ^^
Today I will show you cosmetics I have bought at Missha and SKINFOOD stores in Seoul. First of all, I want to notice, that this two shops are the best when it comes to samples. Shop assistants gave me a lot of samples (especially at SKINFOOD shop ^-^)! Who doesn`t like to receive samples?! ~lol Everyone loves! It is right policy to give lots of samples, because I might buy a full version of the product if I like a sample. kkk So because of that, and great quality of the products and high level of service, i have always felt happy, after visiting Missha and SKINFOOD shops!

1. Missha

My Korean friend has said, that Koreans like Missha. This brand is quite popular for its quality and effective products. The concept might not be that catchy, like princess-style Etude House or all-natural Innisfree, but during all these years Missha has proved to be worthy to stay at the top.
Now "the face" of the brand is the well-known Korean idols DBSK.
So, what have I bought at Missha shops?

  1. All around Safe Block Aqua sun gel & All around Safe Block Essence sun (I got 2 pcs. paying only for 1 kkk~)
  2. Pure Source sheet mask: honey, caviar and pomegranate
  3. Samples: Super Aqua ultra waterfull cream, Time revolution night repair ampoule and Signature wrinkle filler BB cream.

  1. All around Safe Block Aqua sun gel & All around Safe Block Waterproof sun
  2. Yogurt plus pack (peach)
  3. Samples:  Signature wrinkle filler BB cream, Time Revolution the first treatment essence, Super Aqua Refreshing clear gel and some other cream.

Ok, so when I was at this shop, I just couldn`t leave it without buying something tasty ~kkk
A shop assistant told me, that they have a new line of fragrances - fruit and berry scents! I, personally, like to wear tasty perfume. No wonder that I have already had Snoopy Let`s Mango Eau de Toilette and Etude House Pink Sweet candy, which smells exactly like a sweet cake!
