Gosh, I really like the colors of this gem. It is an essential item for summer!

The mask opens up pores with warm heat, salt and sugar powder helps eliminates waste material in a rough skin affected by the accumulated keratin. It provides silkiness to skin with nourishing black sesame extract.

This is one of my favorite facial scrub. It cleanses the skin very well with fine sesame. Skin feels smooth after using it. I got this during my trip to Korea in January. Highly recommended. This is also available at sasa.

2nd Gmarket Haul!!!

My 2nd Gmarket Haul is here!! Everything is perfect!
Date of order: 5/25/10 & 5/27/10
Date received: 6/2/10


I just can't stop myself buying stuff on Gmarket. The shipping time is speedy. Monday was a holiday. If not, the package should arrive 1-2 days earlier. This time I combined my two orders to save $ on shipping cost. It is so easy to combine orders that you placed before the items you ordered leave the Gmarket warehouse.


you can request combined shipment in just a few clicks.
go to My gmarket -> Shopping list -> oversea orders -> click on the orders you want to combine -> request combined shipment











For Hats, Gmarket seller is 가야소녀

























This time i bought two hats. I see a lot of shops do carry this kind of hats. Forever21, Gap, H&M, Urban Outfitters, and more. This is a must for this summer. The seller has many different style of hats to choose from. The average price for one is around US$12-$20. The price is reasonable, and you can also pick different colors and ribbons for your hat. my sister just bought one for a shop that only sell hats in an outlet. The hat is priced at US$40.00!!! gosh, she can buy two or three on Gmarket.




For ballet shoes, Gmarket seller is 하비하우스.
  
























I love wearing ballet shoes. My dream ballet shoes are Tory Burch. I can't afford one right now. Many American celebrities love to wear them.  I hope I can get mine soon~ haha


For flat shoes, Gmarket seller is 신바바...




































OMG, this pair of shoes is so comfy!! I was skeptical about the shoe size when I place my order. I normally wear US size 8. I don't know should I go for Korean shoe size 245 or 250. Lucky, I go for 250. Both fit perfectly.

This is from Coffret D'Or spring 2010 collection. 


The size of this eyeshadow palette is bigger than I thought. I own a couple eyeshadow palettes which have purple color for the main shade. They are Lavshuca and Nars. 


The four shades are:
Left: pearl with shimmer for base
Center: large sparkles for highlight
Right: lavender purple with shimmer
Bottom: dark toned purple with pearly shimmer

Hera Foundation

Hera Precious Foundation Liquid (30ml)
color: #21





















This was delivered to me wrongly instead of the hera precious base. CS from Gmarket told me the seller promised to refund my money without to return it. Refund is still pending. Now I ended up with two Hera foundation in the same color #21. There are three shades available to choose. the picture on the listing doesn't really show the real color though. I tried it out anyway.

I have fair to medium asian complexion with yellow undertones. This blends beautifully into my skin.



The other things I like about this is it gives the right amount of coverage i want (sheer to medium) and the formula is quite light. It doesn't feel heavy on my face. It gives you a dewy finish. One pump is enough for my entire face. I don't have to use finishing powder after this. This is quite satisfied to use it daily especially when i don't have much time to do makeup in the morning. it does contains fragrance. it smells pleasant. the only thing i don't like is the color is a bit too yellow to my skin.



Hera HD Moist Foundation SPF15 PA++ (30ml)
color: #21



















This HD Foundation has a slightly different color than the one above. it has a more pinkish tone. It matches me so much. This does a good job of moisturizing. I do prefer this for my dry skin.


I usually wear Shiseido Maquillage Lasting Liquid Foundation UV in OC 00, Nars Sheer Foundation in Celyan, and Make Up For Ever HD Foundation in 118 (for a darker choice).
