Roseroseshop haul

I picked up a few items from Roseroseshop few months ago. I just completely forgot to blog about them.

I got these three items. Definitely cut down a lot.
I had to convince myself not to overbuy.
Korean cosmetics brand are very good at attracting hopeless people like us with all the cute and pretty packaging. It's very dangerous for my bank account.

Etude House Bling Me Prism Liquid Lip
This is a limited edition from Etude House's last year summer collection.

PK 001 Star in Pink

It is a wearable bright neon pink.

Etude House Dreaming Swan Eye & Cheek

When I saw the preview of this collection, I wanted the whole collection badly but in the end, I was late in placing my order because I can't seem to find a seller who carries this line. This collection sold like hot cakes in Korea, I would understand it would be very difficult for sellers to even get stocks.

Anyway, I am happy that I managed to get something from the collection.
Look at the packaging, it's so pretty.

The shade I have got is Jete Pink.
It is a soft pink shade. This shade is very flattering on fair skintones, it can never be over done.

The last item is from Missha.
If you are familiar with the messaging app LINE, I am sure you know where this bear is from.
So, Missha had a LINE collaboration and they had quite a few items in this collaboration.

This is the Missha LINE friends tension blusher.
The shade I have bought is VL01. It is a lilac shade. I personally like lilac shades because it brightens up yellow skintone.

The packaging is so cute but what really made me got it is that it is a tension blusher. A tension cushion blusher is different from a cushion blush in the way instead of the product being soaked in a sponge, the cream product sits under a netting. I haven't tried any product like this before, so I am really intrigued. Even though I know it might end up being one of those gimmicky products.
Please prove me wrong Missha. 

Hermo haul : Missha & Brigitte

This is another Hermo haul post. I do not how much money had I donated to Hermo. 

Probably my six month worth of lunch money. 

Okay. So, I placed an order on Hermo when I saw the Missha Magic Cushion went on sale.

Missha had a collaboration with LINE awhile ago and everything they released is nothing but cute. I wanted to try the cushion but I wasn't willing to pay full price so I did placed the thought of purchasing it aside and hoping there is a sale soon so I could grab it up. The other day I saw that Hermo was having sort of like clearance on this cushion, I immediately grabbed it up before it goes out of stock.

Hermo provides free shipping when you purchase two items and above. To make the shipping free, I placed the Brigitte eyeshadow palette because I was interested in trying this Japanese brand out.

The compact is so cute!
It comes with an extra puff and also refill.

Brigitte Romantic Eyes Eyeshadow.

This brand was endorsed by Rola. The website was so cute and romantic looking. Got totally sucked into buying their stuffs.
When I first got this eyeshadow palette, I found the packaging to be a bit 'bleh', it does not look as good as photographed. I found it a little cheap plastic looking.

The shade I purchased is BR-1

It is a very basic brown eyeshadow palette.
There's nothing special but you can never go wrong with these type of shades.

Looks like I won't be purchasing from this brand until something from its line is gonna wow me. If you are looking for a great Japanese drugstore eyeshadow palette, please check out KATE and Canmake.

Pure Aura : The Face Shop, A'Pieu, Missha, Innisfree

Summer was the time for crazy online shopping. I was letting loose with too much in hauling and I haven't post up all my hauls.

Here's another haul post that I did in Summer. 

It is another CC cream loot. I did went crazy with CC creams, I know some people didn't buy the gimmick/concept because of the sheer coverage but I am loving them. 

This time, I got a brand that I never ventured before, A'pieu. A'pieu Aurora Luminous CC Cream. 

The Face Shop Faceit Aura Color CC Cream.

The lip colours were Missha Glam Art Triple Lips and Innisfree Creamy Tint Lipstick. 

The A'Pieu CC cream comes in a transparent plastic box. I would say this is interesting, it is the first time seeing a makeup item comes in a box like that. It's a really sturdy box that would last through rain, heat and bashing up from transit. 

The packaging is very beautiful with the glittery black bottle and purple flower designs. I love it. 

The CC cream comes in a push-type. 

The top is a concealer for those who needs more coverage. 

It comes with 30ml worth of CC cream and 2.9g of concealer. The price is on the pricier side for a roadshop brand. I bought it for about USD22 or so, I don't really remember. 

The Face Shop Face it Aura Color CC Cream.

I have heard great reviews about CC cream because it has better coverage than most CC creams out in the market.

The CC cream comes in a unique compact case. I find these type of packaging really convenient for application anytime and anywhere.

I haven't remove the sticker but that's the hole where the product comes out.

Next, I got the lip item that is heavily promoted in Korea.

Missha Signature Glam Art Triple Lips in Mambo Pink.

When I was watching the drama 'Nine', I kept seeing the CF of BoA promoting this lip product.
This lip product works as a tint. lipgloss or lipstick depending on the amount of layers you apply.

The packaging is really sleek and sturdy.
This lip product is slightly on the pricier side for roadshop brands.

Innisfree Creamy Tint Lipstick

The colour is one of the recommended colour in #2 Cocktail Pink

It is a hot pink colour, the 'hot' colour for the spring/summer season. It's not spring/summer season anymore but who cares. Hot pink is still my favourite lipcolour.

Pure Glow : CC Creams (Missha & Tony Moly)

I went overboard with CC Creams when every single Korean brand started pushing out their CC Creams. This is because of my shopaholic tendencies and ofcourse I wanted to try the CC Creams quite badly.

TonyMoly Luminous Pure Aura CC Cream ,Missha Complexion Coordinating BB Cream

The TonyMoly CC Cream is one of the first CC Cream that is launched in Korea. So it has set the standards for the Korean CC Creams. 

The Missha CC BB Cream is an interesting one, it is a CC cream with the coverage of a BB cream. So I guess it is a plus for girls who wants more coverage but wants the lightness of a CC cream.
It comes in two choices : white and beige. 

TonyMoly Pure Aura CC Cream.

The bottle is really sleek. It is made out of metal.

Comes in a pump dispenser.

There's a FOTD with me using this CC cream and a brief first impression. Click here

Missha Complexion Coordinating BB Cream in White

The packaging is unique yet super bulky! The packaging took up so much of space at my makeup cupboard.
This BB-CC Cream is more expensive than the normal roadshop CC creams.

It leaked a little, I guess the bottle got twisted in the middle of transit.
The bottle is a twist-type instead of a push-type. So I find it really special.

But because of the design, the nozzle does get really messy.

Like most Korean CC cream, it is a white cream with microcapsules of pigments.

Rubbing it in, the microcapsules burst and the colour of the cream starts changing.

Blended in. It matches my skintone very well. The cc cream gave my skin a luminous and dewy look, at the same time brightening it. The coverage is slightly better compared to most CC cream outside and it feels super light, like you are applying nothing at all.

Since this is a slightly more expensive CC cream for a roadshop brand, it is better to go to the shop can try out this CC cream before purchasing it.
I own both white and beige and I would say both are really light, so I don't know if it works well on darker skintones ie darker than NC30 but if you are NC15-20, this CC cream is a good match.

The beige gives more coverage compared to the white. The white gives more of a luminous and dewy look and it is of lighter texture too.
The beige is more of like a in-between a BB cream/tinted moisturizer type of texture.

I have done a FOTD of the Beige version of this Missha Complexion Coordinating BB cream and a brief first impression. Click here! 

Haul : Qoo10 #1

I did order lots from Qoo10. It is like my favourite new place to shop for Korean cosmetics.

I am going to post my order batch by batch to not mess up everything.

Let's start off with the not so interesting items.

Snail Repair Cream and Missha Tinted Jelly Lips

I actually ordered two of the tinted jelly lips, another one is a pink but unfortunately it was out of stock.

The snail cream comes in a generous amount of 100ml. It's going to take awhile before I finish them up.

I know snail cream is gonna make you think all gooey and slimy.

Well, the cream is not gooey nor slimy, the texture is pretty light and spreads easily and absorbs easily too.

I haven't been using it much but so far, I doesn't irritate my skin nor break me out. I haven't seen difference yet but I have been only using it now and then.

All spreaded.

Missha Jelly Tinted Lips in Fresh Mango

It comes with a brush applicator.
This colour is something i never owned before, that is the reason I picked it up. It is a mango colour, it is pretty unique.

I am back + mini haul

Just came back from the land down under.

I am extremely tired from the midnight flight.

There's gonna be lots of pictures once I get everything sorted out (Hit me! I am not even done blogging on my overdued UK trip)

A mini haul I did before leaving to Australia.

Two nail polishes from Etude House in PK001 and PK005.

They were on sale at the local Etude house branches for RM9.90 each which is slightly cheaper than the online prices.

I am in love with all these multi-glitter nail polishes, they are fun and cute!
Even my mum seems to be enjoying them too, she has been borrowing them from me.

Before I left, I also received a small parcel with the Missha Complexion Coordination BB Cream in Beige from Missha. I got the 20ml size.

The concept for this cream is not quite a BB nor a CC. It is a BB CC cream. The best of both worlds.
it has the coverage of a BB cream and benefits of a CC cream.

The 20ml comes in a tube like most BB creams packaging.

It doesn't have a pump dispenser. It is a squeezy tube.

The 50ml version comes in a super bulky twisting tub which eats up a lot of storing space.

This BB CC Cream price is pricier than most roadshop CC Creams.

Missha loot - Missha M Perfect set.

I finally did it.

I finally jumped the bandwagon and got Missha's bestseller BB cream.

The Missha M Perfect Cover BB.

It sure took me long enough to get it.
The seller that I always get my Missha BB cream from, had a promotion on Missha M Perfect Cover BB.
It was buy 2 and get a free Missha concealer. Since her Missha products are already discounted, I was surprised that she did this promotion.
If you stay in Malaysia, I recommend this seller in getting selected BB creams. Click here to the site.

I bought both BB cream plus a concealer at RM111 (USD35) including shipping to my house, which I think it is a reasonable and great price.

Missha M Perfect Cover BB comes in variety (not really, but for Korean BB cream, the colour range can be considered extensive) of shades. It comes in 5 shades, No.13, No.21, No.23, No.27 and No.31.
The colour I got is No.21. The perfect shade for NC15-NC25.
It also comes in a 20ml or 50ml bottle. Mine is 50ml.

It came in a battered condition thanks to poslaju even with bubblewrap.
Not only i received my parcel at 6.30pm, they also handled my parcel roughly.
Poslaju is deteriorating in service.

The BB cream comes with a sleek red tube and a pump dispenser.

It promises skin whitening and anti aging.
Also it comes with SPF42 PA+++. This is good.

Missha The Style Perfect Concealer in #21.

Korean Beauty haul

This is one massive Korean cosmetics haul. I have picked up so many things that I don't even know how to start.
The items are from TheFaceShop, Tony Moly, Etude House, Holika Holika, Missha and Nature Republic. I am not sure if I missed out any brands.

Behold!

Never let me loose when I am Korean beauty items deprived or Asian beauty deprived to be exact.

I am gonna start out with Missha because I only picked out one item from Missha.
This is a repurchase.

Missha Misa Cho Bo Yang BB cream in #1.

This is the higher end range for Missha's BB cream.
I would say this is my HG BB cream for now. The coverage is really good, it last through the day and oil control is really good too! It makes my skin look so good!
It comes in a very expensive looking Oriental styled packaging.

Everything about this BB cream looks oriental even the scent.
It has this Ginseng scent which I do not mind. If you are not used to Chinese/Korean/Japanese oriental medicine scent. The very herbal scent. I think the scent will bother you but it will go away once applied on the face, it doesn't linger long.

It comes in a squeeze tube.

It comes with SPF30 PA++. Anything with SPF is good.
and 50ml worth of product. Not too bad.

Holika Holika!
I only picked up one item from Holika Holika.

Holika Holika Luminous Silk BB cream.
Now I am into achieving the luminous skin so I got this to try.

It comes with a pump dispenser.

The packaging is very cute.
The colour I got is the lightest 01 Light Beige. It comes with 50ml of product and SPF42 PA+++.

Nature Republic. I got mostly skincare from Nature Republic.

Nature Republic Pine Tree Urban Detox Essence.
I am using this everyday now. It comes with 40ml of product.
So far I can't comment about this product since I have been using it for about a week only.

It comes with a very chic glass bottle.
Most of Nature Republic's packaging is really chic.

Nature Republic's Star Product Aloe Vera 92% Soothing Gel.

This has become a HG of mine. I use it for anything and everything. 

It comes with a great amount of 300ml. I will definitely repurchase. 

This is purchase as a set with the Aloe Vera Gel. I had to fork out about RM5 extra to get this tiny BB cream. So I didn't mind.

Collagen BB cream. 

It is just a tiny BB cream in a squeeze tube. I think it comes with 10ml. 

Can't read the Korean.

Nature Republic Vanilla Sky Make Up Base in 02.

I got an extra makeup base in case I run out of my Etude House Makeup Base.

TheFaceShop.

I got their Star Product Raspberry Roots Sleeping Mask.

My friend even recommended me to get it. I have to get it since I am finishing my Etude House Sleeping Mask and that mask has been discontinued T_T

It comes with 100ml of product.

TheFaceShop Herbs Day Foam Cleanser in Lemon.

I got suckered in by the packaging. It is too cute to resist and it contains honey essence.

It comes in a cute frosted glass bottle and a spatula to scoop up the product.

I finally picked up Tony Moly's star product.

The Lip tints, I got in both colours Red Apple and Cherry Pink.

Red Apple.

Cherry Pink.

I got their Luminous Perfume Face Powder.

The packaging is very princessy.

Mine was choking powder when I got it. The powder was all over the container T_T.

Had to clean it.

It contains micro shimmers which is not very visible when applied on the face.

Here's a swatch.

Can see you see the slight luminosity?

Then my biggest haul is from Etude House.

Peel So Good Diamond Peel Foam Cleanser.

I needed a scrub so I got this.

Something I have been eying for the longest time. Etude House Nymph Aura Volumer in #1.

Etude House Magic BB Cream. I got this because it was 50% off.

It has 30ml worth of products and no SPF.

It comes in a pump dispenser tube. 

Aloha bronze skin maker.

My mum got this for me together three other products as a gift.

It comes with a base and bronzer.

My mum also got me this. Miss Tangerine Sweet Shower Lips.

She got me this in Pink.

Pink!

The last thing my mum got me. Wannabe Shine Finish Pact & Highlighter Duo in #1

The powder side and the small pink highlighter side.

Shini Star  Clear Pact in 02 Lavender.

Not a fan of SHINee but I just need a purple powder pact to cool my undertones at somedays.

Nicely engraved with the Shini Star logo.

Woo~Baby Lip Plumper.

It was on 50% off, I thought I did get a backup. I like to use this to top off any lipsticks with dryer formula. 

Golden Ratio Face Glam in 02 Pink.

I needed a liquid highlighter because I do not own any.

It comes with a liquid highlighter and cream highlighter.
