So recently I've given into the temptations of online shopping and I've acquire a couple of items I wanted to haul and give mini reviews on.
Source of Korean Beauty Goodness: Cosmetic-love.com
Pros:
FREE SHIPPING
Wide variety of items available
There are always items on sale
Protip: Check out the Special Offers Tab
Get 15% off your first order!
Cons:
none that I can think of as of the moment
Product: Etude House Look at My Eyes Cafe
Color: Berry Berry Soda
Grade: B+
I bought this mono eyeshadow... thingy... to use as a blusher because I really like the idea of buying a bright pink blush color in a small quantity as to avoid overspending on a product that I wouldn't be able to finish.
Pros:
Blends easily
Lovely flattering color
Build-able
(You can get all the way from a light flush to a "I just got out of the snow" look with just this color)
Cons:
Product fallout
(Slight issue when transferring the product from the pot to your brush)
Product: Missha Sheer Fluid Highlighter
Grade: B+
A lovely champagne highlight with a gold glitter running through
Pros:
Easy application due to the liquid formula
Gives a more natural highlight effect
(could be a con if you're looking for a BEAMING highlight)
Cons:
May not be flattering on other skin tones
Could be cheaper
(This was $10.94 for 10 ml)
Notes: I find that using a foundation brush to apply the product works better than fingers.
Don't wait for too long before you blend the product in! You may find it more difficult to blend into a more natural look if your wait too long.
Product: Innisfree Camellia Essential Hair Styling Gel
Grade: B
I use this on wet hair when I want to scrunch curl (is that the proper term?) my hair
Pros:
Smells good
(it has a refreshing clean smell)
Doesn't make my hair crunchy
A little goes a long way
Cons:
Doesn't last the whole day on my hair
Product: Clio Waterproof Pen Liner Kill Black
Grade: A+
I super love this liner
Pros:
Doesn't budge after drying
The perfect sized tip
(Not so thin that it takes forever to get a dramatic line and not so thick that its impossible to create a nice flick)
Cons:
haven't encountered any yet
Notes: This liner is so budge proof that even my mom who CANNOT keep her liner on the whole day SWEARS by the lasting power of this one.
AND THATS A WRAP!
I have another product that I've purchased but haven't gotten around to using it enough so I'll just do a follow up on that one.
The doodles on your images are ADORABLE, Bea, I love them! I haven't bought makeup products in about 6 months, lol. This makes me want to go to my nearest Etude House and splurge, haha.
Oh my, you make me want to get the Clio eyeliner right now! I'm using their Waterproof Gelpresso, which is also AMAZING, so I know their stuff is real good. I really adore the doodles on your photos, they're so cute.
Hmm is the other product you haven't used enough yet happen to be the Cosrx BHA Blackhead Power Liquid? (just a guess from your cover photo haha) I've actually been using it for a while and I'm telling you, my blackheads are disappearing! It's part of my skincare routine, which I happen to just post about on my blog, if you wanna check it out :P
Buying a smaller eyeshadow to use as a blusher is genius! Plus, that eyeliner sounds amazing. I typically also have a difficult time keeping eyeliner on. My oily eyelids always wipe away everything :<
I haven't tried any Korean cosmetic products, I'm not really keen to order online without testing it. Eyeliner looks cool, I'm sure it is easy to achieve winged liner with it.
i'm dying to try that clio kill black eyeliner tattoo! i'm already pretty content with my missha eyeliner so i really wonder about its performance. i love your doodles on photos! xx
I've wanted to try some Korean skincare products for a while, but just can't justify it with all the Birchbox samples I have sitting on my counter! Though that eyeliner looks amazing (and cheap!)
Oh these products sound so nice and I love your photos with the cute graphics! I have note tried any Korean skin care but your review is making me really want to! The eyeliner sounds really nice :)
That eyeliner looks brilliant will have to try it out :)

So many lovely picks! I'd use that bright pink as a blush as well and I've heard nothing but good things about that Clio liquid liner :)
