*Cookiie; Collective Sasa Haul

Holy smokes, it's been a while! Life has been waay too hectic so it was really hard for me to make some free time to blog as well. And to be honest, I haven't really been purchasing much lately since I've become a real typically poor student. *cries* Even this haul post consists of three seperate orders and it isn't even that much! Customs have been more strict lately, so I could only order when Sasa does those $19 free shipping offers. I'm glad Sasa does those offers now, since I really still love them Asian products, hehe.




My cleansers are running out, so I thought it was time to try some new products out. The Kose Softymo White Cleansing Oil sounded really interesting as I read the short reviews on the website. It is supposed to have some sort of melanin-eliminating effects on the skin, but I'm not too confident on that. I've been a fan of the Naive-line from Kanebo, so when I saw the Kanebo Naive Facial Cleansing Foam (Raspberry & Grape Leaf) I just had to get it. It smells really good, but I also haven't tried it out yet. Reviews will definitely come as soon as I've tried them out properly.


Now onto one of my favourite brands for skincare: de herbs! I tried their products out before and despite liking them back then as well, they used to have really sucky packaging. Few years later and the packaging improved so much, that I figured I should try some of their stuff out again. Always having these promotional offers also help by the way. I got this de herbs Hyaluronic Acid Moisture Moist locksas Eye Serum on a BOGO special offer, so I'm all stocked up for now when it comes to eye moisturizers.


Another special offer that I enjoyed was from the de herbs Hyaluronic Acid actif White locksas Toner that came with three full-size au lait-Milky Treatment Masks for free. I don't really feel much for the mask and I haven't tried the toner yet, so maybe a review after I've used it long enough.


These de herbs Rosewater Soothe Moisture Mask were also on a BOGO special offer. I already used a few of these and I have to say that de herbs is very generous with their products. The masks are completely soaked and there would still be some liquid left in the sachet. I'm quite satisfied with these, so I definitely recommend trying them out.

Sasa also gave me a Foot Repair Essence, but I'm really not impressed by it that I don't even bother saying more about it than this. De herbs always having special offers going on, so check the brand out if you plan on ordering at Sasa.


The last two items were picked along for the order because I simply needed to reach the $19 limit for free shipping. I use this Acne Needle to pop my pimples yeah I know gross haha. Whenever I went for a facial treatment I'd see them use this tool to do so as well, so I think this is probably the best way of doing it. Remember to never force it if you plan on using this tool, because then it'll be more likely that you will hurt the skin around the pimple which can lead to scarring.


Last but not least, I got this sample-sized Estee Lauder Pure Color Long-lasting Lipstick. I'm a little greedy when it comes to my lipstick collection because I'm always so in love with the packaging. With this little lipstick I don't really have to worry about finishing it and yet I get the good quality from Estee Lauder. I do like the colour as it seems like a very universal red that will probably look good on anyone.

That's ittt, let me know if you've tried these products already or if you want to see a review of them. Or just anything, because it's been waaay too long that I've talked to you guys.

*Cookiie; Somewhat Big Haul Post (part 2)

Hey guys! Today I don't really have much homework to do, so I decided to take the time to post again. A while ago, I posted a haul post and said that there was going to be a part 2. Now, I've received the rest of the the haul for quite some time already, but I just didn't have the chance to post about it. Sorry for the long wait, but here it is~


Two packages from Sasa.com!

As you can see, the products were safely packed.


Some handy tools: False Eyelash Applicator, Mascara Guard and KQ Series Cleansing Brush from Kai. I haven't tried the Mascara Guard yet, but the False Eyelash Applicator is pretty nice! You can easily attach the falsies close to your real lashes with this applicator. The Cleansing Brush is okay, it's an alternative of scrubbing your face with a scrub. If anyone is interested in this product, I can make a post to tell you more about it. :)


Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch Sunblock SPF 50 PA+++ and Kose Point Makeup Remover.
I've tried the sunblock since Milk gave me a sample of it once and I really liked it. I also tried one from Lioele and I liked that one better, but it will take a while before I'm done using this one. The Point Makeup Remover is great! I use it for when I make mistakes while applying eye make up and so far it has done its job well.


Aaand I bought some cotton sticks because I thought the packaging was handy. The headband was actually a promotional gift from Sasa. The more you order there, the better the gifts are. I'm trying to become VIP, but it's so much money lol.


Second package! What could it be?


Yay, my first circle lenses! These are the Geo Angel Brown. The bubble wrap wasn't stuck together with tape but was actually sealed with a machine (I think). Really nice! I love it when packages are packed so neatly.


Unpacked.
You get a free lense case and there's also a little instructions book included. I bought these at HoneyColor.com for US$22.45 (with discount) and they arrived quite fast. I want to try ordering at Ulzzang Style since they offer authentic circle lenses for even cheaper. If anyone still want to try HoneyColor.com, then don't forget to use the coupon code HC15DSC for a small discount!


Two shots of the circle lenses; one shows off the colour more and the other one the print.


And finally, I bought these two products on the forums Soompi.com. Even though it did arrive and it was a lot cheaper to get these two products from that seller, I didn't really like how the seller didn't bother at all to keep me updated. I don't recommend buying stuff at Soompi, unless you're willing to take risks like me.

And there you have it, my big haul~ I won't be buying that much anymore for a while, since I'm saving money for a trip to.. London! Both Milk and I will be going with two other friends of us right after Christmas, so there probably will be some more hauling posts after that again. xD

Just to remind you guys, there are about 3 weeks left to email us your entry for our giveaway. So far we have 14 entries (Thank you guys, we appreciate it a lot!! ♥) and they are all quite detailed! I'm excited whenever I see a new entry, so please keep them coming~ ^^

*Milk; skincare haul

Finally got my sasa package after 3 painful weeks of waiting! It actually got delivered yesterday but nobody was at home so I had to pick it up from the post office this morning.


skincaaaare ~

The Christian Dior Hydra Life Youth Essential Hydrating Essence-In-Milk. My most exciting purchase! My hydrating serum ran out 2 weeks ago so I was very desperate. Don't you just love the fancy packaging?


Also got a new eye cream. I needed something more moisturizing because my under eye area has been really dry. Even though it says 'cream', the texture is more like a gel.


New eye make up remover to replace my Lancome Bi-Facil. This one is the ~H2O+ Dual Action Eye Make-up Remover. I also got a new handcream to put in my handbag. ^^


My hair has been a bit dry lately so I thought I'd try out a new shampoo. The DHC Baby Hair Shampoo does not contain Sodium Lauryl Sulfate and is enriched with olive oil and vitamine E. Sounds good doesn't it? :D

Lastly, I also ordered a new moisturizer from Strawberry.net and got a Stila eyeshadow as a free gift. I forgot to take a picture of the eyeshadow though.



Can't wait to try all these products out! If you wan't me to review any of these products just leave a comment below. ♥
