ANOTHER Haul Feat. BeautyNetKorea @w@







Hi guys! I know my last post was a haul, but as soon as those items arrived I was so happy I made another order! (And I really want to make another one, but I'll wait a while). I should've made this order with the last one as one big order, but the total was just getting so high... I wasn't thinking that I would end up saving money.. but at least the shipping is free!

So I made this order from beautynetkorea.com. Check them out, seriously! These posts are not sponsored... but I think they are really great. Fast shipping, cheap prices, large range!! What more could you ask for?

Samples from this time    
Samples from last time
So I'll start with the samples again. I got more this time!!! I loved the samples I got last time, and I think in my next order I'll be grabbing some of the things like the Tonymoly Banana Hand Cream. I read some reviews on in, and apparently it isn't that hydrating... but it smelt so good and I want to use it before I go to bed so, I am going to get it anyway!


Moving onto lip products, I got this Secret Kiss Chubby Jelly Tint in Lovely Pink. I actually wanted to get the Berrisom Lip Tint Pack.. but you can only get it from Wish Trend, and I can't bring myself to make an order there, because for one tint + shipping to Australia it was something like $17... which in Australian Dollars is probably like $25-30. So, I got this instead. I'll make a video first impression maybe this Wednesday (or probably next, because I have a cold atm and don't want to wear make up or use lip products until I've gotten better). So, I'll let you know what I think of it!


Next I got this  Saemmul Lip Tint in pink. In case you couldn't tell, I go for pinks when I buy lip products ha. I wanted to get a tint I could use for work, where I wouldn't need to constantly reapply. I hope this does the job and I'll let you guys know what I think of it!



Next I got this Its skin Baby Face Petit Blusher in Pure Lavender. I got this to use to highlight my face, as I've heard lavenders are quite brightening, however this is more of a link baby pink colour. I guess it's alright, because I can replace my other baby pink blush that I've had for about 2 and a half years. I can't stand having old make up anymore, and I am thinking about doing a project pan serious so let me know if you want to see that! Also, how cute is that packaging?!?!

 
Next is this Tonymoly Luminous Goddess in Smooth Fit Cover Aura. I couldn't decide what one to get, and I was really tossing it up between this one and the moisture one. In the end, I decided this one added a bit more shine and glow. I'll start using it when my current primer runs out, and I will use this along the Etude House Nymph Aura Volumer sample packs. I want to do a comparison for you guys~


Sorry this picture isn't that nice. The plastic wrapping along the outside was reflecting the light so much, and I didn't want to take it off because I am not ready to use it yet... I have been wanting a redness corrector for a while, and this one from The Face Shop was really cheap. I was going to get the purple one, but I decided I have a lot of redness and plenty of brightening bases, so I should get the green one. If I like it, though, I may get the purple one too because it's so cheap!


Next are these Foodaholic Face Masks in Olive. I wanted to get some really cheap masks, and this was like $7 for 7 masks. I only need enough to last me until my Japan trip, and then I can get some REAAAAALLY cheap ones. I got olive because it is good for hydration. I sound like I have dry skin, and I have normal - dry skin, only really getting dry in winter. But, who can say no to hydration?


Next, I wanted to get a cleanser I could use in the shower to wash off my makeup when I got home from school or work really late and I couldn't be bothered to remove it properly. Of course, I will remove any excess after my shower, but to do it in the shower makes it so much quicker and easier. I'd been using a Biore one that my boyfriend got to remove his zinc and sunscreens, and it is just so quick and easy, so I wanted to get my own. I decided to get this Etude House Real Art Cleansing Oil. It was reasonably priced for the size of the bottle. I didn't do any research for this, so I am hoping it is okay, because I know there are a lot of brands who have their own cleansing oils. I guess if I'm not wowed, I can just buy a different brand next time!


It also comes with a pump, thank god haha. Don't know why they didn't just put the pump in and skip the lid...


You're probably wondering why I got the no-wash version as well.  Well, I don't really like using cleansing oils on my eyes to remove mascara, even though I know they are safe to. I just feel scared every time I use it on my eye area, and because I am scared I don't remove my mascara properly and it just ends up going all over my eyes and I have to remove it after my shower anyway. So I got this to remove my eye makeup before my shower. I'm currently using a Loreal one, which is much smaller than this and only $4 cheaper, so I am hoping that this is going to be better! The Loreal one takes everything off fine, but price wise I think this will be the winner. I know Korean cleansing products are pretty good, so I am hoping this one will be. I won't start using it until my Loreal one is finished, though!


Lastly, I got this  innisfree Green Tea Mineral Mist. I've heard good things about it, and you should know by now how much I love to hydrate my face. I thought it would be good for winter when my face is dry, and also for Summer when my face is melting off. It smells so good, too.

And that is it for this haul! Let me know if you have tried any of these things and liked them, or not liked them! And if you have any reccomendations for my next purchases, let me know! I am really getting into Korean skincare, so I'd love to hear what you guys think!

Thanks, see you next time~~

Mini Haul from BeautyNetKorea ~!


Hi guys! It's been a while since I did a haul, and I am planning on doing a video on this one too so stay tuned for that! I'll probably have used some of these things by then so I will be able to review them a bit better for you too :)

So I made this order from beautynetkorea.com. I've ordered from them before and I loved their service, prices and range. I had run out of my green tea seed serum, and a few other things too so I decided I would buy some new stuff and try them out~

Most of the things from this order are to help with pores or acne.... cause that is something I am not too happy about at the moment.


Firstly, these are all the samples I got for free. You get free samples for every order you make from beautynetkorea. I love this, because you can try items you might not have got before, for free!




The first thing I got was these green tea pack masks. I haven't tried them out yet obviously, but almost all the packs I bought in Japan have run out, so I needed to get some replacement ones to last me until my Japan trip in October. They were more expensive than the ones I get in Japan, but I think they might be better quality.



Next I got this Etude House brush. I saw MakeupbyDamee do a little review on this, and I had to check it out! I bought a refill for my Etude House BB Cushion, but I haven't opened it yet because they dry out so quickly! I already have 3 foundations and a bb cream open, so I can't bring myself to open the refill just yet. But I'm thinking about taking it to Japan, so we'll see how that goes!


Next I got these Nymph Aura Volumer sample packs. I got the sample packs because I figured it would be cheaper, and I can get 1-3 uses out of one pack, and there are 20 packs all together! I have tried this before in a sample pack when I bought a CC cream from ebay, and I liked it. I was actually going to get the Face Blur, but I decided I'd go with these this time around as my cart was getting a little expensive. However, I will make another order from beautynetkorea soon, and I will grab it then!


Next I got the Skin & Pore Zero Tightening Serum by Holika Holika. I got this to replace my Green Tea Seed serum, and I am excited to see if it really does help with my pores and blackheads. I also didn't realise that Holika Holika was cruelty free, so I will definitely become a loyal purchaser from them!


I also got the Naked Face primer from Holika Holika, and this packaging is just soooo classy!!! I got this because it has red, lavender and green balls in it, so I figured it should help to cover up my redness, dark circles and also brighten up my face. It'll be interesting to see how it goes! I won't start using it until I am finished using my current primer (Australis brand... I don't really love it... it's just an average primer).


Next I was about to run out of my current Natio under-eye cream, so I decided to get two different creams to try out. The first one I got is this Snail Repair Eye Cream from Mizon. It looks really classy too, and even came with a spatula, good old Korea! I already tried this last night and I like it, I could feel it under my eyes for a while after I applied it, so I think it was really taking it's time to seep in and hydrate my under eye area.


Lastly is this Black Raspberry Eye Cream by Skinfood. I'm not sure if I will open this until I finish the Mizon one, or if I might use this some nights and the Mizon one other nights. But anyway, how cute is this packaging? It looks like a little barrel of something!!!

And that's the end of my haul! I am actually about to make another order, because as soon as I paid for this last one I regretted not making it bigger, so stay tuned for that. I will also be making a video version of this haul maybe next week, as well as FINALLY making my giveaway video, so please keep an eye out for that!!

Let me know if you reccomend any Korean products, I'm not really wanting to buy make-up, because I think I have enough, but I am wanting to expand my skin care range so I can have a few options to use depending on how my skin is feeling, and I also wouldn't mind getting another primer or two!

Thanks for reading, and see you next time!!

Day Out With Sister + Mini Haul

Hi guys! It's been a while since I did a post like this.

Today me and my sister went to the op shop to donate a heap of our old clothes, and we decided to have a look to see what we could find. I found some really nice clothes and a bag! So here is my mini haul!!


First this is my coord for the day~

Don't mind my baby hairs... I have no idea what to do about them T_T


Dress: DaTuRa (I bought it off Kati from Dentelle Noir)
Shoes: K-Mart (Australia)
Outer: Liz Lisa (I bought it off HoneyBloodxx)
Bag: Strandbags (Australia)


The first thing I got was this cardigan. It had a price tag still attached for $50 and I got it for.....


.... $8!!!!

It's so cute!! It's a low v-neck one, and there are sequins which sparkle in rainbow colours when you move with the light (It didn't pick up in the photo though..)



I got this cute sweater, with pastel bits of different coloured balls sewn in throughout it. It also has rainbow sequins too!


This large top (which I am wearing as a dress) and the lace-decal smokey rose coloured bag. These were both only $6 each! I really liked this top because it made me think of Cecil Mcbee!

After that we went and had lunch, and come home!

Thanks for reading~! xx

Australian Gyaru Unite!!!



I know I haven't been active lately, my new course is so full on and my grandparents went to Hawaii so I've been trying to look after Yuuna while I study and also keep the house in order.

But, I just wanted to make an update that I have created a Facebook page for Australian Gyaru.
I am the only gyaru in my area (to my knowledge), so I wanted to create a place for us to all gather together and form a community.

If you are interested, or know any Australian Gyaru, please have a look at this page:
Here <3

I hope I can find some other gyaru from Australia.

I wanted to make a group, but I didn't have any gyaru friends to add to it, so once we've made a small community we can turn it into a group page!!
