Shopping - A Bit of This and That

My Beautynetkorea haul. Total was about 20 USD including shipping, because I happened to have almost 9 USD of credit points. I think it's a decent price for being able to try so many new products. I had a lot more samples in my cart originally though... might order them later on.


Banila Co Clean It Zero Special Duo #Original and #Purifying

I have wanted to try these cult favorites for a while... but now I actually had a reason to buy them. Good small sizes and solid consistency to carry while travelling. I tried the Original cleansing balm already and was surprised how nicely it melts. Such a cute and sturdy packaging as well for a sample set. I really like Banila Co's aesthetic overall.


Tonymoly Back Gel Eyeliner Long Brush Color #7 Latte Brown

I really like the light brown shade. So subtle, yet gives the awake look. Easy to apply with the brush but I would say that the gel feels a bit dry. If I put any liner in the morning, it is usually this one now, because I can't badly mess it up!


Laneige Water Sleeping Mask Sample

Laneige Cica Sleeping  Mask Sample

Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask Sample

Repurchased Water Sleeping Mask and also wanted to try the other sleeping masks from Laneige. So far I've tried the lip mask but I don't know... it is a cult favorite but I'm not too impressed. Maybe because I don't like the bubble gum scent. But it does help with dry lips, nothing amazing though.


DAENG GI MEO RI Shampoo For Oily Scalp Sample

I thought again about travelling when choosing these. I couldn't find a full size bottle for sale, so I'm guessing the product has been discontinued.

Missha Perfect Cover B.B Cream Line Friends Edition Color #23 Natural Beige

I had earlier, long time ago actually, purchased #21 Light Beige and it was clogging my skin and was too light/grey anyway. So I forgot it. But I tried it again after starting to use Skinoren, and it was ok. Still slightly clogging but if I don't use it everyday, it's alright. Perfect Cover BB Cream has so much good things going on for it so I'm willing to compromise. Good for my oily T-zone and the shade #23 is quite perfect, greyish brown that disappears in despite it looking very dark in the beginning. Zero orange, pink or yellow hue! :)


Purito Snail All In One BB Cleanser Sample

Again, for travelling, but also wanted to check out this cleanser anyway. People talk about Purito's products a lot.


Eyenlip Salmon&Peptide Nutrition Neck Cream Sample (Gift)

Everything was packaged well with bubble wrap (I had already removed some before taking the photo to see the contents). Eyenlip's Neck Cream samples were a gift. The order came in two weeks, I chose the shipping option without tracking.

Also, my Jolse "haul", only two things that were on sale... Total was about 19 USD. Honestly I didn't need these but both were something I had looked at several times before. Super nice amount of samples! I'm the most excited about the CNP Laboratory ones.


Isntree Hyaluronic Acid Water Essence

I have wanted to try something from Isntree for a while, and I have several times looked at this essence. It includes of course hyaluronic acid, but also prickly pear seed oil, niacinamide, betaine, etc... it also has butylene glycol that I might be sensitive to when there's a lot of it but it's listed quite late in the ingredients list. The bottle is very thick glass and feels heavy and luxurious.


Etude House Blend For Eyes Color #02 Orange Party

I don't really understand why this palette looks different from the photos. There should have been an orange shade, but it's red! The 3 other shades are like advertised. The palette is even called ORANGE party but it's missing the orange. I'm a little bothered but the palette was cheap and the shades are still pretty and I think they suit me. The palette is easy to work with, too. I get a nicely (=good enough) blended look within minutes even though I'm not good with eyeshadows! But I have to find my orange kick from somewhere else. Bleh.


A pile of samples (Gift)

Everything was bubble wrapped very well and there were a lot of samples, and of course the usual blotting papers Jolse gives out. The order came in two weeks and I had again chosen the shipping method without tracking.

Differin Gel 0.1 %

I have almost finished one tube (they are only 15 g) and I definitely wanted to repurchase! I don't even think it's drying, but I don't use it every evening. Alternating between Differin and Skinoren has really made a difference to my skin. Skinoren helps overall with sensitivity and bigger pimples and balancing my skin, Differin seems to smooth my skin and help with smaller stuff, like stubborn closed comedones that I've had for months.


Skinoren Cream 20 %

I actually happen to have 3 new tubes of Skinoren so I'm all set for a year! I ordered two from New Zealand, Eclipse Pharmacy. I don't even know how I ended up on their website. But, I would recommend them, great customer service, great packaging, fast shipping.


EDIT:

I just love this Rose Leopard Palette even though I haven't even seen it in real life yet. Maybe it played some part in making that BYOP order...

Colourpop Build You Own Palette: Rose Leopard Small Palette 12 Shadows

Okay, so my need for orange stuff was strong and I had played with Colourpop BYOP options earlier but never pulled the trigger because I felt like I never managed to put together the perfect palette. Now I took hours searching for swatches and finally felt like, this is it. I'm really excited and I hope to receive my palette soon. I'm aware everything still might not suit me, but I can easily replace those shades later. I ordered the next shadows: You Got It, In Frequency, Martian, Koi, Criss Cross, Cut-Outs, Running Late, Side Tracked, Bratty, Bump This, Wait For It and Wake Up Call.

Skin Treat Pure Clarity Shower Peeling

Skin Treat Multi Action AHA & PHA Rinse Off Peeling

Budgie Apple Cider Scrub

Also forgot to include these, Kicks had -50 % sale on Skin Treat (and -20 % on Budgie) and I asked my mom to shop for me a little again! I will see which ones she ends up keeping herself and which I will take. She tried the Apple Cider Scrub already and said that it works amazingly and she's going to buy another tube.
