probably i haven't mentioned it yet, that lately, if i need ready stock korean skincare/makeup, i buy it on chicprincessa.com. and i read on femaledaily forum that the chicprincessa owner's sister manage the preorder system via email, so i ask via email to chicprincessa which then give me the email of preorderlair. if you're familiar with riebutik, i believe the brands and prices in chicprincessa/preorderlair are similar to riebutik's. anyway, i've bought 3 times from chicprincessa via their website, and twice from preorderlair, and i have to say i'm quite satisfied with their service.
okay.. now about my last haul from preorderlair..
since i bought my skincare from roseroseshop, so i bought makeup mostly...
1. nyx powder blush in mauve : i've been searching about nyx powder blush. though i wanted to try liquid blush like rimmel, i found it hard to find an online shop that sell liquid blush. and when i've already ordered nyx, i found an online shop that sells holika holika liquid blush.. *sigh* oh well, probably i'm not meant to buy liquid blush. so back to powder blush, i've bought the famous pinched shade, which tend to fall on pinker side rather than orange side. probably i'll buy coral garden or apricot which more orange than pinched.. but since pinched has subtle glitter in it, i decided to find something more matte, more suitable for daily. and something that's not as vibrant as pinched, since i have to be careful when applying pinched. i have to be very light handed, or i'll look like clown. so, when i was browsing for new shade, i was confuse whether to pick angel, natural or mauve, since all of them are similar to me. but then, i decided to pick mauve. it's cheap, so i'll get another shade sometime else.
2. nyx two timer eyeliner: i like nyx felt tip eyeliner, but unfortunately, it dried quicker than i thought. and when i wanted to buy the new one, it was sold out everywhere, and i decided to try loreal gelmatic penliner instead. but i found out that it wasn't consistent. i have two of them, one in black, and one in navy. the navy one works okay up to now, but the black one suddenly dried. i've tried to cut the tip, but it didn't help. it's hard to use, and just won't show if i put eyeshadow first. so i decided to buy the two timer. i can get the felt tip that i like, and i have the pencil if i'm in a rush. it's perfect!
3. innisfree apple juicy cleansing oil: i ran out my usual milk cleanser, and i like the innisfree apple juicy cleansing oil sample, so i decided to buy the full size.
4. etude house 3 step lash perm volumecara and curling: it's a 3 step mascara. there are several version of this lash perm mascara. the volumecara, shockcara, curling, 3 step volumecara, 3 step volumecara in brown and this 3 step volume plus curling. since i have pretty thick eyelashes, usually i don't buy mascara for volume only, since it might clump my eyelashes. so i decided to buy the volume plus the curling one. and i have difficulty finding the review on this one, since everybody else seems to buy the 3 step volumecara instead. this mascara is supposed to use for 3 different outcome, the first one is the natural one, the second one is more dramatic than the first, and the third one is almost false-eyelashes-like effect. i haven't tried it yet, but we'll see if it really works as it was supposed to be.
and i bought the faceshop eyebrow pencil from chicprincessa plus my usual etude house facial wash. i want to learn to shape my eyebrow. though i have quite bushy eyelashes, but i found out when i got my makeup done for my master graduation, the makeup artist still shaped and filled my eyebrow. so probably i have to learn to do that to define my brow. actually the faceshop one is similar to etude's drawing show eyebrow pencil, but since i've read somewhere that it's going to be discontinued, so i'd rather not to try something that will vanish from the market. i'll write separate review once i've tried them all.
