A package from Stylekorean - An online Kbeauty & Kfood shop


Hey guys! This time I will be sharing a package sent to me by Stylekorean.com

As some of you might have known, Stylekorean, which is previously known as Honestskin is an online Korean beauty and food shop. You can find tons of Korean beauty brands in their shop as well as the Korean food and the shop is using USD currency. They shipped internationally and you can choose your preferred shipping company. Currently, they are accepting payments in the form of Paypal, VISA, Mastercard and amex.

I have tried purchasing with them (Honestskin) before this and they shipped your parcel promptly and full with safety bubbles inside. In fact, in this package they sent me, they tripled the safety bubbles inside which amused me so much! Your purchase is guaranteed to be safe from all that tossing in the delivery :)

So, let head on to individual products;


The first item is It's Skin Prestige Serum D'Escargot which contain the serum for face and eye serum. Ever since it arrives, I've been using this every night and love it! It smells so so good and it keep my face so moisturized! Definitely recommending this product to all types of skin :D 

Price : 24.36 USD                Product link : HERE.


The second item they sent me is Innisfree Long Wear Cushion SPF50+ PA+++. I haven't got the chance to try this yet but the packaging is really simple and lighter than any other cushion I have. I have heard a lot of positive things about this cushion and find the chance to try this and share with you guys of what I think about it :)

Price : 14.65 USD                Product link : HERE.


Third item is banila co. Primer Primer Photo Layer Power in Naked Peach. omg, just look at that packaging! As far as I know, this collection is released with Jessica as the collection model. banila co. always had this pretty packaging and their products are pretty good too! I love their Prime Primer the best! I myself haven't try this powder yet but from outside, the powder looks like pink to me and not sure how this is called peach. Maybe after it was applied to face?

Price : 15.39 USD                Product link : HERE.


Fourth item is It's Skin Power 10 Formula GF Effector. This series have a lot of types and I have tried the YE (yeast) before and it is good! I even bought the limited jumbo size for that. I'm kind of curious on how this perform on me and I hope I like it.

Price : 7.69 USD                Product link : HERE.


Fifth item is VDL Tint Bar Triple Shot. There are four colors for this tint and I got the #201 Triple Candy color. They're basically a triple color combined into a tint to create the gradient lip style as you might have seen Laneige released the similar tint to this. This tint is one of VDL Bestseller and honestly I have a high expectations to this. I've tried this once and it doesn't look like I have putting a triple color at all, must be because of my pigmented lip T_T However I planned to give it another chance later and see if it works for my lip.

Price : 8.93 USD                Product link : HERE.


Sixth item is IOPE Moistgen Special Gift Set. This is a sample sized set by IOPE and it looks like my skin gonna love it since Stylekorean have sent me a gift set similar to this before and I love it.

Price : 5.86 USD                Product link : HERE


Seventh item is Holika Holika Pig-nose Clear Blackhead. I actually thought that this product was created by including the "pig" ingredients so I never really try them before because I was afraid of that! When I saw Stylekorean offered this product, I take a look at its ingredients and gosh, they're mostly originate from plants haha. Anyway, plan to try this later to see whether it is good as I've heard about it :)

Price : 1.28 USD each              Product link : HERE.


Last items is masks from Vital Medica and MediHeal. I have tried MediHeal masks before and they're sooo nice!! I'm definitely recommend this brand to everyone :D
The Vital Medica mask is not available in the shop currently and only the Ampoule mask by MediHeal is available to be purchase as a single mask and bulk form. Link HERE.


These are samples given by Stylekorean. The left is Hair Cleansing Treatment by [not so sure brand] and the right one is Su:m37 Secret Programming Essence which is a known as a high-end brand that specializes in skincare, mostly. I don't think the hair treatment is available in the website but you can check out Ryoe brand for hair products and you can buy the sample for the Su:m37 using the link HERE.

 Overall, I'm loving the items in this package. They're just a bit of everything, makeup and skincare. I will be doing an individual review for these products later so make sure to check it out!

[REVIEW] Holika Holika Oil Queen Cotton Makeup Fixer


Hello guys, 
Sorry for the lack of posts, I've been busy packing all my things for a new semester of class.

Anyway, this is the Holika Holika Make-up Fixer from my haul previously.
I've been wanting a make-up fixer since I found my favorite primer. The first brand I targeted is M.A.C ..lol
and of course, my money doesn't seems to be happy with the brand so I search for another cheaper alternative. 

I saw a make-up fixer from Too Cool for School but there are no complete reviews about that product and the price is a bit higher than any other Korean brands too. So I don't wanna take risks..kk
and finally I found these cute-packaging-of-makeup-primer that I decided to get it and it seems to target people who had an oily skin like me :)

Isn't that cute ? :D


Alcohol is second main ingredient! 0.0

I got a serious problem with this spray because it doesn't work no matter how many time I tried. I had to change the bottle to the own spray bottle that I bought :(

The liquid is clear but if you spray too much, it might leaves a white cast. But it is not a problem because you can always dab the spot to blend it.

 Seriously no editing, except cropping and make it into a collage..lol

That's my face after 5 hours. That's awesome right because my makeup doesn't seem to budge at all. The oily part probably on my nose but I dabbed it with a tissue and still my make-up seems fine.

Well, I do wear a primer underneath and spray this make-up spray as the last step. My primer usually can hold on until 4 hours and this spray helps to make them stay longer :D

I read some reviews about this makeup fixer previously, but a lot of them seems to say that this doesn't work on them. I don't know why but this really works on me.I do tested it out twice already. My country is hot and humid and I had a very oily skin(Just to note that)

Other than that, the liquid does have a smell which I think is very pleasant and calming. It does not on the strong side so don't worry. It dries really fast too :)

The price is reasonable, about RM30 I think and the packaging is super cute too!
That was the first point that I saw before I grab this.lol

Oh anyway, the part of the shine maybe came from my highlighter and the light of my room. That wasn't the shine from my oily skin :)

If you have any questions, let me know :D
Thank you for reading

p/s : I do gain weight..tq..lol

Etude House, Holika Holika, The Face Shop, It's Skin Haul ~ :D

Hey guys! It's been so long since I do a haul post :D

Because of the review post is not completed yet, so I think to do a haul post :)
I've been doing a lot of online shopping since few weeks ago and it's still on-going until now. Just maybe you know, I'm not a person who'll buy a lot on a single purchase. I'm doing little by little so that I don't buy the things that I don't really need. I cleared a lot of my make-up stash by giving out to my sister and my friends! I'm glad that they're happy to receive them..:D

Anyway, I think I'm not going to promote any online store here. So maybe you can google up what I always wrote on where I bought these things..or see up close the picture to know the website..kkkk~

 So here are the parcels that already arrived up until now.. :D

 This is the first parcel from xxx store. I've been wanting the Aritaum Wannabe Cushion Tint for so long after I saw a Korean blog posted about this tint. The tint is very unique and had quite lot of colors range. So basically, I already fall in love on how the tint works~! I bought #Blondie and #April and other colors are in the list to buy! ( The review is coming up! )

Another one is the Holika Holika Oil Cotton Make-up Fixer. I seriously never heard of this range before and because the packaging is very cute, so I thought I wanna try this. But I read a lot of unsatisfied reviews after I bought it so I wanted to get a change of products. I ask them to change product while they still haven't ship out the parcel yet. Unfortunately they ship out the parcel after a week of order and didn't even read my message beforehand. TT oh well..too bad then..

Other than that, I'm quite happy because they give two packets of samples and two box of Skin Food Cotton puff!weeee :D

 The second parcel I bought from xxx store..lol
The first one is the Etude House I'm Blooming Mist #Sebum Control Mist. I've said before that I'm not really a fan of mist but this mist with pure green tea ingredients just attracted me so I bought it! 

The second one is the It's Skin brush cleanser. I saw this is on sale for quite cheap price and I was happy because my Etude House brush cleanser is running out (and it's expensive too so I'm not sure if I will be buying it again..).

The third one is the Etude House Dear Girls Tint&Lip Balm.The site is selling the cheapest at that time so I add this because there are shipping fee charged by this store so I had to buy more to save that 0.0
The rest are the samples! I'm excited to receive the The Saem Dr.Beauty samples! The ingredients are just awesome! E.G.F + Snail Complex + Syn-ake complex! I'm going to buy this if the samples satisfies me :D

The third parcel. Basically this is just mix from three sellers...lol
I got the buy 1 free 1 event for the The Face Shop CC cream and it was the best deal ever! You only got the same price for one item elsewhere and of course I already sell the other one..:D

The Etude House Cotton Fit BB Cream is selling super cheap like RM29.90 so I thought of grabbing it because of the crazy deal..lol ..Haven't tried it but soon for sure!

The last item is the super popular pore brush. I think it doesn't have any brand but amazingly the brush is super soft and high quality type. Sorry that I'm not so rich to buy the Tosowoong brand. They're selling a single brush like this for RM89+ O.O too expensive!! I only bought this brush for RM28.50. Tried it a few times and I love it!My skin feels really smooth :D

Update : This two items just arrived today...kk
Finally I got my hands on the Dear Darling tint. I wanted the newest color but the seller don't have that so I choose the berry red. It seems like berry/magenta is a very popular color in Korea right now for lipstick and lip tints :D

And the second one is the Etude House Fresh Cherry tint in red. I'm running out the light pink I bought previously so I wanted the red one although I actually had quite lots of samples for this lip tints 0.0
I got a sample of the Tony Moly Luminous Aura CC cream too! Wondering why it is so popular so I wanted to check it out myself :D

Lastly, thank you for reading. I actually don't intend to hide where I shop. It's just too many are asking if the shop are trusted or not whenever I write the shop name in any blog post. I think it is actually an unreasonable question to ask since I just bought the products from them.. :)

[REVIEW] Holika Holika Bulgarian Rose Eye Cream

I've been using eye cream since I was 19(that was last year..lol)
and I never stop using it since then becoz I read few pros said that we start aging in 20 so basic care like this may be needed and plus,my dark circle is start to get bad so it instigate me to use the cream earlier.

I got this from my first visit to Holika Holika Malaysia few months back since they had promotions going on also the Jung Il Woo contest and I did intend to join so I spent hundreds in the shop.One of the item I got is this wallah expensive eye cream..>_<

Since I was a kid, every local drama/story always said that rose smells good etc..but I actually never smell a real one so i thought it would smell really good as the beautiful flower. However, when I first smelled a rose few years back, I thought to myself : I didn't like the smell.

I don't know how people classify the smell as a good one but I dislikes it very much and after I got my first rose mask last year from Skin79, and that was a long time since I first smell a rose..I think it smells good..
(❁´◡`❁)*✲゚*

I guess my smell sense did change after all.. (¬‿¬)
and the story goes by..I got this eye cream becoz of the smell....and also I like the texture and packaging..



Isn't that pretty? ヾ(´▽`;)ゝ


I already used this and the amount is quite generous.

When I first try this in the store, I think the cream is quite good. It is almost similar to gel and it absorbs pretty well. I'm looking for a light one that can moisturize my eyes overnight. Means that it won't dry up even after I woke up in the morning.

This turns out really good coz it moisturize so well that I expected. I think it must be because of the Rose Essentila Oil that included in the ingredient that make sure my eyes won't dry out for a long time.

For the dark circle parts, my under eye also improve~yeay~banzaii..ヾ(@^▽^@)ノ
Although the results is not overwhelming but at least I'm satisfied that it works for the very least!

But for wrinkles problem, there maybe no progress in the part. Maybe because this cream didn't target to that properties.

The down thing about this cream that it is come in a glass packaging with no spatula. Honestly, I prefer the tube packaging for eye cream but since this looks elegant and beautifully design..I care not..

Sorry because I didn't show my eye bag transformation to you..but this really works for me~O(≧▽≦)O

Thank you for reading (ღ˘⌣˘ღ) ♫・*:.。. .。.:*・

Haul post / Korea Festival #missha #clio #peripera #etudehouse #thefaceshop #baviphat

As I promise yesterday, I'm going to do a haul post~
Also there are some pictures I took from the Korea booth festival@Fahrenheit88

Then, I started with my haul from Stardust booth which featuring Peripera, Clio Professional and Baviphat. Baviphat got 30% off and both Peripera and Clio with original price.



I wanted to buy make-up pouch for such a long time and been eyeing the pouch from Baviphat. They got some gorgeous dupe Benefit pouch ~kk

I bought these 3 items, Clamue pouch(30% off), Peripera Peri's Tint balm(Had cooling properties and tint too!) and Baviphat Apple Soft Lip balm(the smell is sooooo good!)

So next we drop by The Face Shop becoz my friend is a member and she wanted to redeem her birthday gift(so lucky..Etude House doesn't even had this kind of gifts T^T)
I'm not really a FaceShop fan becoz their products doesn't really attract me becoz of unattractive stores and packaging(I even had terrible experience with their samples previously)
but then these 2 items(The Face Shop Aqua Drop Pack Sleeping Mask and The Face Shop Herb Day Cleansing Wipes) caught me becoz the mask is so good when I tried it in the store and I need a cleansing wipes and this is cheap!lol
I got 30% off since my friend is using her birthday promo..huhu..
I think I should paid this myself since she not really bought much in the store while I'm contributing to her points(coz that sleeping mask is super expensive! *RM69.90*) and she got a free pretty tote bag..(I want the bag..T^T lol)

and this is what I got from Etude House. They had this event like booth of something at Sungei Wang Plaza and they gave lots of free gifts if you bought RM80+ and RM100+

We're not really enjoyed the event because we're in a hurry for Jung Il Woo fanmeet..but thanks to Etude House staffs which called upon us and gave this super cute SHINee handfan and gave few samples away..kkk..ureshii desu!

But later after the fanmeet, we decided to drop by Etude House@Berjaya Times Square since we had some time to shop more..Shockingly my friend did bought a lot..lol
She even bought the Etude House Sun BB Cream which is about RM100+..darn super expensive!I bought that BB Cream online include shipping is just only for RM59!I told her about that but she insist on buying it so I got nothing to say..haha

Because she bought a lot then the kind EH staff gave us 2 EH bottles..yeay~~!
I love EH because they're so nice upon giving free gifts..I even asked for an extra bag during the payment since we combine our payments together..they're are pretty cool compared to The Face Shop staff which is very cold..they don't even ask me what i want to buy or even guide me in the store..no smiles and all..that's why I dislikes going to TheFaceShop..maybe they looked down on us becoz they don't expect we Malays will spent hundreds in their store..

owh anyway,I bought the Sweet Cupcakes Eyeshadow in #Menu4(purple shades) and one pencil sharpener from Etude House. I'm not buying much since I already had most of their products..lolol

and here is some online shopping I've done..hehe..
I ran out of concealer so I got the Missha Signature Extreme Concealer SPF30++in #23.
It is pretty expensive but it is worth my money.I don't even wear BB Cream because this concealer alone is enough. ^_^

I also got a Holika Holika Jewel Light Waterproof Eyeliner in #08 light pink for under eye and  a Etude House Soft Touch Auto Lip Liner in real rose(my first lip liner!)

Next would be Clio Professional Waterproof Pen Liner in Kill Black! it's Lee Hyori~~woot!
That's why I bought nothing at the Stardust booth becoz I bought this earlier. Although I'm targeting the Twisturn eyeliner at the booth but it was so expensive!Even ebay sells them for RM39 and the booth sells them for RM69.90!gosh...I didn't bought it online because only black in color available while I wanted to have the purple. T^T
You had to google the name if you don't really understand what I'm talking about..haha

oh..and there are also NYX Cosmetics Round Lipsticks I bought last week from local seller.It is very cheap in US which you get it from Ulta(?)for 1 buck if I'm not mistaken..


I got three colors ; Tea Rose, Doll and Fig. It is very hard to choose the color online since different blogger had a different swatches color..but I do a great job because these 3 colors is pretty much as a I expected. Like these was highly raved, the lipstick is very moisturizing and super pigmented in color.

I bought more last night and it probably arrived tomorrow that is B52 and Tea Rose since I wanted to give those to my mom and sister. They are asking me for my lipstick last time but the colors I had is so bright and I think that it won't suit them because my sis is darker than me and my mom almost  had the same skin color with me but bright pink won't suit her age right?So I'm thinking B52 might suit my mom(although I'm not pretty sure the real color will turn to(coz the pictures show that it might be nude-red-pink color) and tea rose for my sister since the color is not really pink..it's a nude-purple-pink in my opinion.


The Missha concealer packaging!Gorgeous isn't it?


Pretty good eyeliner in my opinion especially for the beginner user.

These are the sponsored review products that arrived 2 weeks ago sent by Korea Cosmetics for me to review~ love the blue packaging and there is pandas!haha..they are referring on how the panda eyes can turn bright using their eye cream..how cute!

The eye cream is pretty great when I first used it..Absorbs really fast and non-sticky!yeay~
and there is Catalinageo Auto Eye Brow Pencil~

The samples from Re-Cell serum..got two types but I haven't tried this yet..

The accessories I bought from Fashion Letter@fb
These two are from Neon lines and it was really pretty!The seller is very nice..I'm not saying this because this is sponsored or anything.I purely bought this myself.Just wanted to share with everyone because this is cheap!It's neon and will be bright in the dark light..:D

oh and here this is me..I'm pretty sure I never did took a full photo of me since I look ugly in pictures..lol..more like I don't know how to pose properly in front of cam..T^T

Having a lunch on 4pm..lol coz just got chance to eat after the Jung Il Woo fanmeet..so tired and sleepy..I don't know why my sides had so many guys at the fanmeet..and they're so tall I don't even see oppa properly..T^T

sorry for my sleepy eyes..haha
and i wore the neon bracelet too!hehe :D

these are pictures from the Korea booth festivals~ *Baviphat and I-Myss*

Lee Hyori unni!kkkk...
She had a pretty sexy pose stands near the Peripera products but the guy from the Nature Republic booth always stare at us while taking pic..*sigh* I'm so embarrassed till don't even taking pictures properly T_T All is that guy's fault.!grrr...haha
