Anyway, I posted my second gmarket haul in the past, let me post some pictures of my first one.
It was a very small haul, just one item. I am always a bit wary when making my first order with a webshop, so I tend to keep my orders small. And, ofcourse, dreadful Customs are keeping a close eye on every package that exceeds the measly 22 euro limit to importing products. It would be such a relief, when next year, this rate will be increased to 100 euros, or so.
I ordered the Cathy Cath Pop Blusher after seeing the gorgeous pictures on the guru-blog of Korean cosmetics, lotuspalace.blogspot.com. This blusher was too cute to resist! It had a fun outside, and the product itself was moulded in the form of a belt....That is too much temptation for a fashion-savvy and cosmetic-junkie like I am
As you can see: there is a plastic separator between the blush itself and the brush, so the amount of damage on your product by the brush (or clumsiness in general) is limited.
Now a little review upon the product itself: The pigmentation is quite good. It deposits a fair amount of colour on the skin. The only downsite is the colour itself: it is simply a bit too pink for my skin. So I might swap it on MUA or tempt my friends with it...teehee. I do think it can work on a variety of skintones, and it is especially suited for the cute and princessy look, but the colour is just not my thing...
So, that was a short review upon my first gmarket purchase. I will try to keep you updated, however, I have had quite a bad week last week (I was refused for a Master Degree study program I was really looking forward to joining...)so I lack a bit of inspiration right now. So I hope things will get better soon....

Ahaha! I have this too...I still haven't used it though, but I like pink so it should be coolio, I Hope!
Glad you liked my spooky pics....Are you a hirst fan?? I have a terrible love/hate relationship with "ART",I am totally senseless with these things.
Oscar Wilde had this great quote:
The only excuse for making a useless
thing is that one admires it intensely.
All art is quite useless
Oh no! I just read about your bad news.....I hope things work out for you. I truly do.
Ohhh! Nice Haul!
I think I might give the NO!NO! a try before the holidays.
What are your thoughts on hair laser removal?
Its like you read my mind! We are staying up the road from the Tate and that is where we are heading on Saturday!!
glowchaser, thank you so much for your sweet words...I remember Oscar Wilde's 'art for art sake - beauty for beauty's sake'-mentality, and a person like Hirst is sometimes critisised for not making 'real' art...but then again, what is real art? ha ha I will not get too philosophical right now.
mrs. Zeus, I am really looking forward to your review of the No!No! I haven't tried laser yet...it is not so easily available over here, and there has not been a certain standard for beauticians who practicise laser removal. And I do not want to be in the hands of some kind of charlatan who totally ruins my face...eeek. I think the standard will be there soon...but the No!No! sounds rather safe, so does the Tria. I might buy one of those soon...
That's such a cute blush!!
