gmarket haul 8
Here's a new haul! hoo ray!
EMS haul box:
slightly crushed EMS box:
Taiwan EMS boxes are so much more sturdier. Thicker, denser and harder.
What did i buy? Plenty of stuff, but mostly for my sister and friends.
Sooryean Hyo travel sized kit:
this consists of toner 25ml
emulsion 25ml
eye cream 10ml
cream 10ml
essence 10ml
Here's a little preview on the texture of the hyo cream:
It's light beige colour. Texture wise, it is light and creamy. The scent of the entire line is strong. Very strong of herbs and it reminds me of a "grand-ma". Haha. Anyway, i won't be the one using this so i won't be choked by the strong scent.
Charmzone's Dasima Mineral Pack 120g tube
I bought the wrong one, this is the Wash off version. I actually wanted to buy the peel off version. Anyway, i'll still use this. This definitely perfumed, you can smell it right away.
The texture is creamy and thick. Greenish colour:
More Sooryehan stuff:
2 bottles of 15ml sooryehan bicheak pure whitening ampoule
3 bottles of 10ml sooryehan hyo fermented herb vinegar essence
some samples given by the seller.
4 more 10ml tubs of sooryehan hyo cream:
Aren't they pretty? i'm sure they'll be a nice deco on the dressing table.
A close up on sooryehan hyo fermented herb vinegar essence:
It is a brownish golden serum. Thick, i would say. And spreads with a stickiness.
But it has been raved for its anti-aging properties. It refines skin texture too.
A closer look on sooryehan bicheak pure whitening ampoule:
Comes with a dropper in a pretty white pearly bottle. The texture is thick, dense and to me, very sticky!
Next up, sidmool products. Sidmool is on the natural skin care line free of harsh chemicals and irritants. It is suitable for sensitive skin types. They have a great many products for blemished skin and oily skin types. So it's good for our type of skin in tropical countries. The great thing is, it is on the lower end in terms of prices so everything is pretty affordable.
What we got here:
Purchased:
1. super antioxidant energy serum - antioxidant serums are a must for our generation's skin type. Because we are overexposed to computer radiation almost 24 hours a day.
2. philip natural sun cream spf34 pa ++
3. Organic Argan oil
4. the rest are samples given by the seller
super antioxidant energy serum:
contains power of berries! The serum is even purple in colour, how sweet!:
This spreads and absorbs easily with absolutely no fragrance. Way to go for natural non-irritating skin care.
The philip sun natural cream
Hygienically sealed:
It has a slight tint to it but when spread, no colour appears on the face at all.
The texture is creamy and it does leave a slightly greasy feel. It's suitable for all skin types and can act like a makeup base.
100% organic virgin argan oil:
Argan oil has been raved as Liquid Gold. We decided to get organic virgin version to try out on our faces. Definitely only organic and the top of the crop to slap on face. It can be used under eyes for wrinkles and fine lines, a treat for dry dehydrated skin, replenish colour and moisture to darkened lips and it is known to have benefits for oily acne skin too! What's not to love?
Samples given by the seller:
a piece of natural soap. But i need to find out which type it is. The writings are all in Korean! i'lll have a hard time knowing what this soap is exactly.
5 pieces of sheet masks given, again, the writings are totally korean. I do not know what are the properties of these masks.
A pack of tissue wipes it looks like. Apparently for acne skin type.
They even gave me vitamin C sweet samples. The middle silver sachet is their best selling item, aloe vera gel. Highly raved. This one is for oily skin. There are two versions, oily skin and dry to normal skin.
They enclosed a pamphlet with their entire range of products: impressive!
They even have health food supplements , body care range and hair care range. All natural as can be.
Next up, Berrisom. Super berry deep ocean mist!
Full of antioxidants! yay! It's a 1+1 item, so that's why there are two bottles of this. 70ml each
Ingredients in english! wow!
the spray is refreshing, and the scent is light! Nice!
Put a bottle on your desk and use this rehydrate your skin. Also, with the powerful antioxidants, it'll fight all the damaging free radicals for you!
An antioxidant mist spray is a definite must for those facing the computer daily!

Korean Drama first half 2011
I've been watching episode after episode of Korean dramas for so many so many nights and even over weekends..................
So far what i've watched and/or am watching:
1. Manny - completed this just a while a go............. overall rating 6/10. Nothing much interesting.Can be slightly boring towards the end.
2.The Greatest Love - completed this yesterday. Overall rating 8.5/10.
This is out of my expectations. It's great! I really like cha seung won in here. He is so comical. His acting is good, even back in Athena: Goddess of War when he was the villain, his acting was good and i rooted for him.
However, the lead actress brought the rating down (my rating given to the drama). I thought she was stiff and her acting didn't really stand out. It was exactly the same in "Pasta". Her facial expressions and gestures were shallow and blank. I felt she didn't bring out the character strong enough. It was too shallow.
But she still managed to pull through because Cha Seung Won is that good! really! If it wasn't for her, i think i would've rated it 9.5
3. Can you hear my heart - watched till episode 20, waiting for the rest of it to finish airing . so far it is up to episode 26 if i'm not mistaken. Rating so far 9/10.
This one is way over my expectations. I never knew a non-romcom could be this good. This one is on my MUST WATCH list!
Kim Jae Won is eye candy worthy, except for his absolute-casper complexion. He is so very fair it borders on being absolute white. He is not only white but his skin is soooooooooooooo smooth there is not even a pore visible.
Hwang Jung Eum, the lead actress, has great skin too. Radiant and bouncy and smooth. But when close up it does not even compare to Kim Jae Won's smoothness!! I wonder how they made him so white and smooth? or is this his natural skin texture?? it's a wonder, and i wish i had such porcelain skin like him. It's outright perfect and flawless!
4. Lie to me - watched up to episode 12. Rating so far 5.5/10.
This one is a huge disappointment. It put out the fire in me quite a while back already. The story did not stand out. What a waste on the first class actors.
It was boring and it did not provide me enough "steam" to "chase" the episodes. I will complete watching just for the sake of watching and giving a review.
5. baby faced beauty - watched up to episode 14. Rating so far 7.5/10.
This one is very enjoyable and do not regret watching this. Daniel Choi's acting is pretty good. It's stupid yet acceptable. However, i'm just wondering if 20 episodes would be too long? i think it would be good to just end at the standard 16 episodes. But i could be wrong. Let's see what the rest of the episodes entail.
6. Ms ripley - have not started. The synopsis did not stir me up. It deters me from watching. I'm wondering if this is good. Also, the male leads seem a little weak. Both Kin seung woo and Micky Yoochun do not appeal to me at all.
7. city hunter - have not started. Will start when it completes airing. I'm liking Park Min Young. so i'll give this a go soon. Lee Min Ho is also good to watch. Crossing fingers that the plot will be interesting.
8. romance town - Since it already completed 3/4 of its way airing, i'll get this started very soon. It also falls into my fave category of rom-com so i'll definitely watch this.
9. ***You've fallen for me ------------------ waiting waiting anxiously, nails have all been bitten too much already! it's going to air tonight! Rating now 10/10!
Aaaargh, i cannot wait for it to complete airing before i start. I think i will even watch it RAW without the subs!
haha, i'm that desperate.

Mini taiwan haul
I had a mini taiwan haul...............
Just arrived today!
The box is much much more sturdier than the Korea EMS boxes. So your precious items won't get crushed easily.
What's inside:
Charm Infinitely Whitening Cream.
This is a whitening cream. It has been strongly raved in taiwan, so i thought i'd get a tub to see if it lives up to its ravings.
Introducing the CHARM Infinitely Whitening Cream- 30g
Nature Bright Formula, Patent Whitening Actives, Herbal Extracts, Pearl Powder.
It's a multi-fuction cream - moisturising, nourishing, whitening, refining texture.
Contains natural and biochemical whitening actives to brighten your skin tone. Green tea extract and tocopheryl acetate to fight free radicals, WSK (Tremella Fuciformis Sporocarp Extract, hayluronic acid and polyquaternium-51 to moiturise skin.
It also depresses the formation of melanin and prevents freckles and spots.
Here's the functions on the box:
Comes in a classy diamante lilac-pink tub 30g. Very pretty................:
It also encloses a spatula for easy scooping.
Here's a shot on the white cream like texture:
Here's a little "advert" on it:
Summarised roughly translated version: "The packaging is too cute! and caught my attention on the first glance. I don't really like lotions/emulsions but the winter has left me with dry skin. I am looking for a suitable moisturising/emollient product for my skin, and found Charm. Texture is light and moisturising, not sticky. My skin is usually dry and easily flakes/peels. With Charm, this dryness and flaking has much improved. My skin was dull and sallow from insufficient sleep, but after only 1 week of usage, it has brightened up! Day or night, with just the use of Charm, my skin care problems are solved. With just Charm alone, there is nourishment, moisturisation, and whitening properties. It is very suitable for lazy girls like me. I particularly like the faintly sweet scent that perks me up and relaxes my senses."
Whoa! sounds like a miracle product. There are other raves like helping makeup last longer etc etc. The thing that caught me most is the whitening and brightening effects! Let's see if it works.
Shylina Organic Camelia Pores Brightening.
Heard of shylina? it is organic skin care brand in Taiwan. I'm launching out too organic skin care just to see if it does any better for my highly sensitive skin.
Comes in a set of two 8ml mini bottles.
this is for pores management.
Shylina European Edelweiss Repair Lotion
Organic newly released item.
Comes in a 60ml dispensing package. It even has the ECOCERT logo to certify its organic genuineness.
Once the cover is opened, there is a white plastic to protect the dispenser. You must push down the plastic in order to reveal the dispenser. This way, it keeps each drop or organic edelweiss lotion as fresh as can be!
Texture is like a very thick serum. It feels slightly sticky when i rub it on my hand. But the stickiness goes away once absorbed. Not sure if it will feel the same on my face though.
Shylina Snow Velvet Rose mask
Whoa! for this one, you can slap it on for up to one hour and it won't dry out!
That's what drew me to get ahold of this.
It looks like it can really hydrate and plump up skin to the max!
description reads: "The formula of rose water is rejuvenating to fine lines and dehydrated skin. With several herbal extracts are rapidly absorbed into the skin to reduce the spots and bright your face. The natural radiance of the skin complexion is enhanced whilst the organic rose geranium essential oil is tender, uplifting and soothing."
Can't wait to try this out!
