Etude House Taiwan Haul !!!!

Dear blog:

Taiwan.......A shopping paradise......at least in my opinion
My goal before even reaching Taiwan was to shop for cosmetics because......almost all the shops i want to go to were all in the same area which makes looking for things alot easier
Most of the things I bought were from Nature Republic and Etude House.
These are all the products I got from Etude House......at least most of them were bought......they were very generous with the samples which is a good thing.


I got the Precious Mineral Cushion ( the box in the middle ) I like to call it the Macaroon
The packet on the right is a refill for the Macaroon
The box on the left is the Precious Mineral Cushion Deco pack ( Can't find it in Malaysia during that time so......I'm happy i got it in Taiwan )

For lipstick I got the Dear My Wish Lips Talk in the shade OR203
The colour is like a coral-ish pink ?......I think so......
The packaging is cute, the product is quite good, the lipstick is quite moisturising, colour payoff is good so.........yup......its good



I got the Drawing Show Brush Liner in Black
I've been using this eyeliner for a long time, its one of the first eyeliners I got and I like it alot.


And these are all the samples I got......never received so much before.......
 I received 2 packets of samples along with a brush cleaner solution and Real Art Cleansing Water.
 The first packet has BB cream samples ( in individual packets ), the new AC Clinic cleanser samples, a tea tree facial mask, BaoBao samples, Age Defense Essential Softener and Lifting Essence 
In the second pack I got the Baking Powder BB Deep Cleansing foam, Petit Bijou Baby Bubble Moisture Body Lotion, more BB cream samples ( this time in mini tubes ), a mini Age Defense Skin Care Set, Moistful Super Collagen samples and a Hello Raspberry and Cranberry Body Wash sample.

 And that's pretty much it with the haul
Most of the sample products I haven't tried yet, the ones are tried are the AC Clinic cleanser which is quite good.
I tried the tea tree mask and its like spreading tea tree oil all over your face except it was a mask.....
My sister  decorated the macaroon we bought with the deco kit and it turned out OK I guess ? ( the deco kit will be in another post )

If you want to checkout the Nature Republic Taiwan Haul I'll leave a link down below 

I hope you've enjoyed reading, please look forward to the next blog update or the Taiwan trip update which is coming soon.......yup coming soon, my finals are over so i should have time to blog.......and as always
Thank You for Reading.

Nature Republic Taiwan Haul !!!

Dear blog:

Went to Taiwan and came back with one of my favourite skincare brands Nature Republic
This is the first time I actually bought so much from a store.......at least I think so......
Anyway Taiwan cosmetics are way cheaper compared to Malaysia......buying it in Korea would probably be even better......but I went to Taiwan and went to 2 different Nature Republic stores, one in Ximen and the other one in Feng Jia Night Market.

These are all the products I got from the 2 Nature Republic stores I went to.......probably the most I've actually bought from a store........
The first thing that caught my eye was these adorable scented hand sanitizers, they don't have these in Malaysia yet so I bought 6 of them in Rose, Orange, Acacia, Apple, Peppermint and White Musk.
Peppermint is my favourite because peppermint is always awesome. Some of the other scents are quite strong so I picked the ones that weren't as strong as example : Lemon......it still smelled good though......but too strong
 I bought a 10 pack of Aloe Vera gel, gave 4 to my brother and left myself with 6......i now only have 3 left after 2 months because that's how good it is.......to me at least.......Behold Mount Aloe......
 Hand creams are one of the best sellers of Nature Republic so I bought a six pack a packet consisting 6 tubes. The scents were Cotton Baby, Avocado, Lime, Acacia, Green Tea and Grapefruit. Haven't opened it yet so.......I'm looking forward to it......
 I got 2 rose cleansers. These cleansers have been working quite well for me except when I'm in deep stress mode but other than that it smells nice and I would say its a good product.
 Got a hair and bath brush. I really like this brush because it feel gentle on the scalp.
 I saw this pore pack when I was browsing youtube about Nature Republic and came across a video of EXO-K promoting this nose pack......thus the power of hot men got me into watching the whole video and I watched some video reviews and decided that I'll get it when I'm in Taiwan. I only got one box because I just wanted to try it but actually works quite well. The first time I used it, the blackheads actually minimized quite alot......yup.....I like it.
 As usual most korean cosmetic stores would be free samples but I did not aspect to get this much......probably because the malaysian ones don't give as much.......who knows ?
I tried the snail mask recently and my skin has improve a lot.......I'll probably be buying more of them
I haven't tried the Aqua mask yet so........the results are yet to come.
As a person with quite sensitive skin ( ex: after I ate chocolate I found a few pimples the next day ) I would say that Nature Republic is quite a good brand to invest in.......plus everything smells good....

That's all for the Taiwan Nature Republic haul hope you've enjoyed reading it, if you want to know what else I did in Taiwan please check out the Taiwan trip blog that will be uploaded as soon as I finish my finals and
Thank You for Reading.

Taiwan Goodies !!!

Dear blog :

So I came back from Taiwan about 2 months ago and honestly Taiwan is THE place to shop for cosmetics, clothes, food ( I guess ? ), accessories, merchandises and SO much more. I miss being there the moment I reached KL.......but of course I still miss home.....and my bed. The scenery in Taiwan is beyond description, if you saw my instagram pictures, you would know that the places I went are just breathtakingly beautiful.
I didn't buy as much as I think I would have.......suprisingly......
So here are the goodies that I have bought back from Taiwan !!!

As you can see by the first picture that I love products from Nature Republic and Etude House....
I'll be doing a another post for the products from Nature Republic and Etude House 
  I bought an EOS lipbalm, I can't find EOS in Malaysian stores so I was really glad to be able to find it at Taiwan instead of ordering it online.
 I got the strawberry flavoured one and it smells and taste just like strawberry. Best lipbalm I owned so far......
 I also got Nougats that came in adorable packaging......bought it from a expensive Taiwan snack store........nonetheless it is super cute and it taste just as good as it looks.
Taiwan's famous pineapple cakes as well as Pencil biscuits. Both tasted amazing, definitely worth it......plus the packaging is just beautiful........( still keeping the boxes )
We have choco pies in Malaysia but I've never seen Strawberry choco pies before so.......i bought them.......because strawberry flavoured snacks are awesome.....and I like it alot ( devoured in 2 days )
 These do not look as appetizing but they're actually baked mushrooms. I personally don't really like eating mushrooms but this is just simply irresistable !!!
 And lastly I bought Pineapple Cakes for my friends to try and......i guess it wasn't bad.....its not something we have in Malaysia so it was a good experience.
That's all I bought back from Taiwan. Please look forward to the Taiwan trip post that would probably be posted after my finals.......yup......its finals and I'm still writing this.......
Anyway I hope you have enjoyed reading, please look forward to the next update and
Thank You for Reading.

Sailor Moon Micro Blocks ?!

Dear blog :

Who knew Sailor Moon mini block figures would be sold at the one place I never liked going to........
I picked up Sailor Moon herself, Sailor Mars and Sailor Venus because those were the only ones on display......but I'm still looking for more. These Sailor Moon block figures come from a brand named Micro Block and I hope to see more figures coming from this brand.


The first one I did was Sailor Moon which took me a while to figure out but it turned out OK.....I guess



It took me about an hour or more for Sailor Moon........

The second one was Sailor Venus



This one took me only half an hour because the steps were kinda similar to sailor moon except less complicated for the hair.

And the third one is Sailor Mars



Sailor Mars took me an hour to complete because there was an error in the instructions and it took me quite a while to figure out how to replace one hole in her head........

I hope you've enjoyed reading this blog as much as I've enjoyed building these mini figures. Please look forward to the next update which is either a travel blog or a nanoblog or it may be something else........I don't know........anyway
Thank You for Reading.
