March Update!

Its been a while since I've properly blogged! I've had millions of exams going for the past 2 months which explains why there has been such inactivity!

Anyways! 

My mother recently came back from her 1 month trip to Hong Kong and sent back 4 mahoosive parcels containing stuff she'd bought. I felt a bit guilty that one of the boxes mainly contained my stuff that I'd asked for. (*≧▽≦)

Obviously I couldn't let this opportunity go! xP  

Most of the stuff I asked for were cosmetics from Sasa--gotta love that place! ^^~

I apologise for the photo quality.. I had to take it with my phone as I gave my mother my camera and itouch (so she could use wi-fi-- had to live without those for a month T_T). 

So in the picture above.. 

Palty Gel Liner

2 x "My Beauty Diary" masks in Cool and Apple

Fairy Drops Mascara

2 KATE eyeshadow pallets

2 x Lip Ice lip balm in Orange and Apple

Some other lip balm in a posh case. xP 

Other than cosmetics.. I also asked for these mix-style headphones which are popularly worn by various Korean artists! xD Although I asked for a black one with a pink star.. my mum couldn't find one, so she opted for this one instead. oh wells! I'm not to fussed! 

Although it looks fashionably cool.. I'm not too impressed with the quality of the sound it produces. I can't really complain as they were only HK$54!! Bless my mother for not knowing they were fake ones! xD Oh wells!  

Korean celebrities wearing them:  

Younha <3

Sohee from Wonder Girls 

Kim Bum sporting a pink pair! xD 

I also asked for some Japanese magazines particularly Popteen (which is incredibly popular in Japan) FEB and MARCH editions  and Scawaii. I'm amazed at their fashion styles and make-up!! If I'd lived there.. I would never be able to stop shopping! O_o. 

and what amazes me even more is the fact all the girls look flawless and so Hime/Gyaru and I've not seen one single person with black hair...! xD 

That concludes this post of my recent haul from Hong Kong. =)) 

I don't really know what kinda stuff I should post nowadays since this blog doesn't really contain a specific theme... 

I installed this traffic feed onto here about a month ago, and it seems like about 90% of my visitors come from google search on my ulzzang posts! haiii! >_<;;  Need to work harder! xP 

My Mini Sasa Haul

So my dad came back from Hong Kong recently with a few things I wanted from Sasa.
Unfortunately.. he didn't come back with everything I wanted, but thats ok-- I got the more important stuff anyway. =))

First of all.. I'd like to introduce you the wonder 'My Beauty Diary' facial masks which originates from Taiwan.

I've heard a lot of amazing reviews about them, so I got my Dad to get me some from Sasa HK since they were on sale, however he only came back with 3 boxes when I asked for like 10. xD

Cooling Mask (冰沁活氧面膜)
Main Ingredients:

Witch Hazel, Amica

- Soothes skin
Menthol, Peppermint
- Lowers skin temperature

Calendula, Scotch Broom

- Softens skin

Compound extracts of Yeast

- Nourishes and moisturizes skin

I only tried this once, and WOW, its like instant coolness on your skin! Its an extremely nice feeling!

Bulgarian White Rose Mask (保加麗亞玫瑰面膜)
Main Ingredients:
Bulgarian Rose Hydrosol

- Soothes, refreshes and moisturizes

Licorice, Kiwi

- Whitens skin

Aloe, Cucumber

- calms and soothes skin, moisturizes

Appeals/Characteristics:

Offers radiance with translucent, glowing look of skin by its softening effect moisturizing, smoothing, firming for use on normal skin, especially for dull skin lacking radiance.

I have yet to try this one! Just the name of this mask makes it smell nice!

Yogurt Mask (優酪乳面膜)  
Yogurt

- Deeply nourishes and maintains fresh skin condition and moisture content.

Witch Hazel

- Soothes, moisturizes deeper stratum of skin

Hyaluronic Acid

- Prevents moisture evaporation; nourishes stratum corneum of skin

One of the main reasons as to why I got this particular mask, was because it has oil control. My skin gets oily really easily, and I wanted to try something that can reduce my oily-ness. I wore this once to bed, and even it was once.. I still felt a small difference. My skin the next day was not as oily as it usually was, and it my whole face just felt  a lot smoother! It hasn't got a strong essence, but you can definitely tell its a yogurt smell! =))

This is a Cream Eyeliner pot which comes with the brush from SUKI, a Japanese brand.

I've tested it out, but I wasn't expecting it to be that sparkly. Overall, I'm satisfied, I haven't really used gel eye-liner before, so it should be good to use when going out.

and last but not least.. my BB CREAMS!

These are popularly used all throughout Asia, and this huge sensation derived from South Korea and is the secret as to why female Korean celebrities have such flawness skin!

I already own 2 other BB creams, but I wanted to try these ones out, as they are the most popular ones used in Korea. I'll post some comparisons in a later blog.
