[Review] SHINee Lip balm (# 5 Taemin’s choice) ~ by Etude House

After I found my favourite Korean Brand brought out Products in cooperation with one of my favourite Korean bands, I just had to buy at least one product of the line. So around 1 and a half month ago it finally arrived. The SHINee Lipbalm #5 picked by Taemin and as you can see on the picture,  the cane has a few scratches since  I always carry it around with me (I could kick myself for not taking better care of it, now it has scratches Y.Y)

The Packaging is so adorable ! It has mint green and light pink stripes on it and in the middle there is a logo in pink, which says “Shini Star Lip balm” in white Letters. On the side it says in gold Letters “SHINee Special Editon”. on the inside the container is also gold.

The Lip balm has a light pink colour and gives my lips a really nice and subtle light pink shine. I also really love the smell of the product. It smells really sweet and remindes me of a fruit, which I can’t think the name of right  now >.<

Personally I love the glossy shine it gives my lips, almost as if I’m wearing Lip gloss =D

Would I buy it again: Guys,  it’s from the SHINee Edition! Of course I would!

I also wanted to buy the BB Cream and the powder. Did you guys try it ? Can you recommend it?
Did you try any other Korean products that you’d like to recommend or that you hated?

[Review] Etude House -Follow me Tint #2 Tangerine

Today I want to review a lip tint I bought a few weeks ago. It's the Follow me Lip Tint #2 Tangerine Follower, from the Miss Tangerine collection by Etude House. I have to admit, I only wanted to buy it because Etude House choose 2NE1's Dara to be the Model for this line =3


What Etude House says: Energetic lip expression with trendy, UV Protection tint colour. This cool, glossy tint stick goes on clear but changes shades according to your passion.

The packaging has cute stripes on it in different light orange shades, as well as a lovely Logo in an darker orange colour as well as cute little drawings of Tangerines. There is also a description of the product in Korean and English as well as the hint that the lip tint has SPF 13.

The container is white and his little light orange dots on it, as well as the product and line name.

The Tint has a really nice tangerine colour which isn't too obvious and a bit glossy.
It also doesn't fell sticky on the lips and I only have to reply it once or twice when I'm at University.

So over all I have to say, that I really like the product. The colour is amazing and matches the tone of my skin really well. I also really like the fact that it has spf 1,3which comes in really handy especially in the summer month =3  and I really like the design of the lip stick. A fact that I dislike is that it's  sometimes  hard to get the right amount of color on the lips due to the fact the color does depent on the body temperature.
Would I get it again? Yes, if it weren't for the fact, that there are lots of other lipsticks/lip tints out there, that I wanna try.

Did you guys try it? What do you think about it

[Shop Review] Cosmetic Love

While browsing the internet due to boredom and desperate need for some new cosmetics I came across this really awesome shop, I want to share with you guys =D
It’s called Cosmetic Love and they have Korean brands to really reasonable prices, so when I found it I got really excited and wanted to try it out . So after my package arrived ,I’ve been thrilled by how fast it arrived and how many trials I got (I bought only 3 products but got 5 trials (*_*)b )  I really wanted to introduce the shop to you.

 Design: I love the design, it simple, elegant, white (white, white, I love white things (and pink or green things XD)) and easy to overview.
You can shop there by price, brand (the menu is at the side) or category (menu is on the top) or, when you have an item that you want, you can search for it while using the search task on the right top corner.

Payment: Well sadly, they only accept PayPal or credit card that is connected with PayPal. But since most of us do have it, it’s not that much of a problem right?

Shipping: They provide worldwide free shipping (yeay for that) and the general shipping time takes 10 to 25 days. It took my package around 10 Days before it safely arrived at my doorstep and for people who are a bit more impatient, they also provide express shipping for 22$. But to be honest I recommend the free shipping since it’s after all for free and you can use the 22$ on extra products ^^

Prices: Well considering that we are talking Korean Cosmetics, the prices are really reasonable. Of course you can find the one or other product elsewhere cheaper, but all in all I’m really happy with their prices

Well all in all I would say if you like Korean Cosmetics defiantly check them out =D
