Let me tell you a sad story .. that has a happy ending :3
A LONG LONG TIME AGO,
I wanted to buy products by 3 Concept Eyes.
It's a cosmetics line by Stylenanda in Korea,
positive reviews about them are everywhere and even celebrities are raving about them!
Whether if it's their clothes or cosmetics or whatsoever.
I seen many good reviews about their cosmetics 3 Concept Eyes, and it seems like they really comes with quality. However, for me, the products are considered high-end products because of their price! Dammit!
It was in US currency, basically everything just became x3! $ -> $$$
How I wish I can rub my purse and the money inside will just multiply by itself. *sigh*
Not to mention the shipping fee was lik OMG .. since they use EMS so it became even more expensive. And if I use EMS, most likely my parcel will be under customs detention :(
~~ Such a sad story *sniffles* ~~
HOWEVER!!
As someone from 21st century, in order to combat my sadness,
I didn't wait for my prince to come, nor rubbing my purse waiting 财神 to magically appear.
I went onto a 3CE Haul on Facebook and bought the stuff from agents!
In this way, I can avoid customs detention and receive my stuff happily~
And complain if I don't receive them :P Keke
Hahaha happy ending.
So these are what I got! Hehe~

Puchsia/Fuchsia matte Lip Stick (RM70)
It has some neat packaging over there *whistles*
I bought this because the color looked really nice on this model (don't know her name tho)
Her skin tone was slightly darker compared to the other photos.
I liked the way the lipstick color turned out.
It wasn't a very neon-ish color that will scare the shit out of people, at the same time,
it really suits a darker skin tone (from this photo) so I really hope I'd be able to pull it off!
*the power of advertising* :O
Lip lacquer #showtime (RM70)
I was really eager to try out all kinds of lip products ever since my obsession started!
I have really pale lips since I'm slightly anemic,
my lips are always colorless and I looked like a patient instead of a doctor-to-be. =_=
Also, I watched so many Korean dramas and the recent one was You Who Came From The Stars, in which the actress Jeon Ji Hyun has various looks with different colored lipsticks!
It made her look pretty nonetheless,
but it gives her a fresh and the lips became the point of her look.
I chose #showtime because it was a vibrant reddish color with a little bit of peachy undertone.
(Sorry the color brightness was a little bit problematic, it turned out orange instead of red)
I was also curious about the product being a lip lacquer.
No idea what is it so I decided to try it out! :P *spoiled brat detected*
Cream Blusher #New Pink (RM44)
I bought cream blusher since I've never tried this before (basically I've never tried any blusher)
Also because it's a really super cute pinkish blush! I love the shade it has on the model Park Sora. It is a cream-based blush, so it's easy to apply on your face.
Isn't she pretty? Of course the pink blush color too :P
Pink Kabuki Brush (RM 35)
The brush has this peachy coloured bristles and its even wrapped in plastic!
Super hygienic :D
It came with a really nice mini leather bag with some imprinted patterns on it,
it feels really durable! I hope it will be able to protect my delicate kabuki brush >.<
Square Hand Mirror - Black (RM39)
It has a simple design with the 3CE brand and logo printed at the back.
The wordings has a glossy finish while the mirror itself has a matte feeling to it,
a little bit like rubberized plastic.
The mirror felt really sturdy though,
but I will still try to avoid dropping it onto the ground. Haha.
Skin Tone Control Primer - Pure Violet (RM80)
This is a primer that comes with a skin tone control function. Which means that while applying primer, at the same time you can improve your skin tone! I have really dull skin so I needed something to give my face a little bit of vitality. Hehe.
I chose Pure Violet as it can control my redness and is for warm-toned skin.
Overall, I'm really satisfied of the purchase and since I bought from local agents, I don't have to worry about it not being delivered until my doorstep.
One of the bad things about ordering stuffs from overseas is that you need to keep tracking it and hope that the customs won't hold onto your parcels. Frankly, I was afraid (well, I'm a total paranoid freak when it comes to stuff I love) that I wouldn't get the items, so ordering things from local agents saves up all the hassle.
All of the items were received in good condition and I'm really glad I bought them!
Hehe. Will post reviews about them (hopefully soon enough)!
They have a online store themselves, but I ordered through Facebook pm because it's faster that way :P and I sometimes enjoy interactions with the seller themselves.
