3CE Purchase - Some random stuff :)

I bought some 3CE products from another shop in Facebook months ago, 
so this is another late post again!

Just some random stuff from 3CE anyway :)

Soft Square Sponge 

Actually I wanted to order the "Finger sponge" but there was an error (In the product catalog of their blog, there were 2 products with the same name "Soft Square Sponge") so the seller sent me this normal sponge instead. The seller didn't realize the mistake as well. I was lazy to complain at that time so I just accepted it, since I didn't have any sponges to apply my newly bought foundation (at that time). SO this was definitely overpriced for a simple sponge, I think it costs around RM19? Brrrr.. I must be blind at that moment. Haha. Need to be more careful about product names next time. 

Eyebrow Razor
 The packaging came a little bit damaged (squashed?) 
but the product was in a good condition. So it's okay :)


I also bought an eyebrow razor since I didn't have one, this was also overpriced for a normal razor. (I think I paid for the brand instead of the product itself, haha) Well, this costs around RM15, pretty expensive for a razor I would say. 
I guess I was blinded by the 3CE craze at that moment. :P You know, girls.


Their facebook page is Stylenanda 3 Concept Eyes Malaysia
But they've stopped retailing and turned to agent and wholesale only. 
Oh well, we can always buy from somewhere else :)
If you're interested in becoming an agent, you might wanna check them out! Who knows? :D

Qoo10 shopping - Laneige samples!

After using Laneige products for few months now, 
I realized that I shouldn't just apply it on my face, I should use it on my neck too!

Onto the story of my sudden realization ...

The reason I realized this is that while looking at myself in the mirror, 
I saw a stark difference between the skin tone of my face and my neck. 
Holy moley! I look like my face got dipped into white powder! 
My neck was so so dark to the extent of extreme weirdness radiating out from me.

Basically, it means that the White Plus Renew Original Essence did a very good job in whitening my face, but I didn't apply it to my neck, hence the difference.
So, I decided I need to buy more Original Essence!
But it was too pricey and I definitely don't want to repurchase the full-size product so soon. 
I'm just a student! *whimpers*

I mean, I just used it for a few months now 
(only on my face!) and the essence is already finishing up. 
I can't blame it though, the bottle was small. I doubt that it can last me a year or over 6 months.

The bottle was opaque, so I can't really see how much essence is left inside. 
I guess it's time for me to stock up my essence, so I decided to try the cheaper alternative i.e. BUYING SAMPLES!
I know it sounds stupid, samples are meant to be FREE, but somehow there were sellers selling sample-sized Laneige products on Qoo10 so I was like, why not I try it out? 
It would be a good shopping experience anyway. :)



It came in a tiny package like this


And these are all my samples! Arranged very neatly though :P Weeeee!



A quick glance over what I bought this time round!



 8 sample bottles of White Plus Renew Original Essence / 10ml (RM76.70)



6 sample tubes of Sun Block Supreme SPF 50+ PA+++ / 10ml (RM41.60)




Also, I bought a total of three Laneige New Cleansing Trial Kit (RM47.20), 
which includes the Fresh Brightening Cleansing Oil
Multi Cleanser and Lip & Eye Remover Waterproof


It came in a very nice zip lock resealable transparent plastic bag containing all the three products arranged nicely, with a mini card behind it.

The mini card is really cute, but it's all in Korean, I can understand a little, 
it's generally about what is included in the Cleansing Trial Kit.  ;)


The seller also gave me some samples! Yippee! 
I don't know the function of these samples 
but it looks like some sorta anti-aging samples. :) 
Gotta research about it soon~



I'm satisfied with the purchase from this seller (White skin). 
One thing I regret is that I forgot to ask the seller about the manufacturing/expiry date of the samples. Turns out the samples were either manufactured in year 2013 (Cleansing Trial Kit) or not stated at all.

I convinced myself that the products are still good to use .. 
Will be more careful next time :X

*Reminder to self : Ask about the dates before buying anything! Stop being brainless! Ugh

Qoo10 shopping - Skin&Lab!

Sorry for the delays and everything, 
I was really busy with my finals and also packing all the stuffs and balik kampung~
Now I'm finally back here, I can do everything that I dreamed about doing during my mental breakdown(s) in finals. Haha. FINALLY!!! I'M OUTTA PRISON

Okay, this is another "haul" post, guess what I bought from Qoo10 again? 
Another sale that I can't resist!
The app reminded me of products that were on sale, and as usual, I found something new! 

.
Be prepared ... Jjanggg!! 
Skin&Lab Vitamin Cream Buy 3 Free 1 Promo!
If you buy 3 Vitamin creams, you will get a free gift!
I'm a sucker for beauty products promotions and free gifts :(
I received this around May, so it's a really late post again


As usual, I received my items in good condition and bubble-wrapped nicely :D



I ordered Vitamin Cream A, C and K, got a free Dr. Spot Clear Don't Worry Wrinkle Spot
and the seller was generous enough to give me a BOX of Skin&Lab samples!
This is not a new product, just something I really wanted to try out :P




The samples come packed neatly in a little box like this :


The little box taught me not to underestimate it .. because ..

OMGG!!


HOLY COW! LOOK AT ALL THESE STUFF INSIDE THIS MAGICAL BOX

There were LOTS OF SAMPLES inside! 
I was super surprised how many samples were stuffed in a little box like this :O 



Seriously I got so much samples .. Wondering how can I finish it? 
Haha but it's really convenient for travelling purposes :)



This is one of the samples that intrigued me. Red serum
I wonder why is it named Red Serum :O

 4ever fre-C I wonder what it does? 
Have to research a lil'bit about it soon


The vitamin cream samples they gave included all the vitamin creams from the same line!
Vitamin A, B, C, E, and K ~
Each of them have their own functions hehe








Now onto the main product of that I bought~! Hehe
So these vitamin creams are developed by Skin&Lab Dr. Vita Clinic 
so that you can take care of your skin at home by using different combinations of vitamins. 
That's a incredibly creative thing to do. 
You can customize your own creams according to your needs.
It literally means everyone else can be their personal doctor for their own skin!
Seriously, as expected from Korea. *tsk tsk*

The first one is A Plus Lifting


The next one is C Plus Brightening~


And the third cream I bought is K Plus Red-X!



The reason I bought these three creams is because that it seems like if you mix different combinations of creams together, they give off different effects.
So, what can you expect from me? 

Of course I chose the ultimate combination that will wipe off the dark circles from my face! 
Supposedly, if I were to mix these 3 together, it would reduce my dark eye circles..
I certainly hope so!

Dr. Spot Clear Don't Worry Wrinkle Spot
This is the free gift I got from buying the 3 vitamin cream,
useful for me because I'm starting to have fine wrinkles already (at 21?!)


Until 30th June 2014, when you purchase this 3+1 promo, you will get a free gift of Vita Energy Toner & Mist! (130ml retail sized) which will get your skin ready for the vitamin creams. 
So I assume you use the mist before applying the cream :)

I suppose they change the free gift once a month or something, 
because I got the Don't Worry Wrinkle Spot instead. 
Be sure to check the item details on Qoo10 so that you won't get a free gift that you wouldn't use :> always be a wise consumer hahah

Each Vitamin Cream costs about RM 38.50 and 
the shipping fee is RM16.40 via Standard Registered Mail

I'm really pleased that the seller gave a lot of samples! The samples are super travel convenient. I would say the packaging for vitamin creams are different and they were really sturdy. It's not squishy washy that will break once you step on it.
(Of course I wouldn't step on it! But I doubt it will break because it felt super hard)
If you buy from SKIN&LAB on Qoo10, they even offer Free Gift Wrapping Service for 5 vitamin cream set purchase. Very considerate I would say.

Will post a review about it soon! Hehe.

3CE on Facebook Shops!

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.

Qoo10 Shopping~! 3CE and others!

Another overdue post again .. 

My finals is 1 week from now so I would really like to post about my stuffs ASAP because it bugs me so much. My hands get itchy and I wanted to let all of you know about what I bought! 
Also the photos are eating up my storage haha. 
Time to delete share them with you! :P keke


So these are the things I bought from Honestskin on Qoo10!

I bought a total of 6 items from Honestskin~



 Gel Eye Liner (Glitter Black)



 Glass Gloss



Fresh Aqua Mist



 Glamour Mist



Closeup on the Glamour Mist


One thing special about this Glamour Mist is that it contains glitters! But of course not all glittered or else your face will glow brighter than the star >_< 
According to the description, it will make your face sparkling and radiant. Another unique thing is that it is in gel form (not liquid) and I was super curious that's why I bought this :D 
Since I was only curious and only bought it for fun, but it don't have a smaller version (like the Fresh Aqua Mist), so I bought a big one instead with the 1+1 promo, 
if I don't like it I might be able to give it to someone as a gift! Heheh

Next up is Aloe Vera 92% Soothing Gel! 




Nature Republic Aloe Vera 92% Soothing Gel 300ml

It was also on a 1+1 promotion, I bought this after reading some blog reviews and also because it can be used in many ways! Means I won't waste my money ;)

An incident occurred when I received my products. 
The seller sent me the wrong product as I ordered for 1+1 of the Facial Mists, I should be getting 2 full sized product but instead I received one smaller version of the Fresh Aqua Mist. So I contacted the seller, and it turns out that they sent the wrong item and refunded the money to me. I wasn't required to sent back the item, lucky me! :D


I also bought this on Qoo10 from the seller Good Friend 

Petitfee Gold EGF Eye & Spot Patch and 3CE Waterful Concealer

Waterful Concealer #001



 Petitfee Gold EGF Eye & Spot Patch

When I opened the box, the packaging was really cute and classy with its design *loveatfirstsight*

So that's all about the things I bought on Qoo10! :D

Will be posting some reviews about some of them soon, since I alrdy using them long before this post :O (I received them on the end of March actually. Sorry again >_<)
