I Bought the IOPE Air Cushion XP and I’m Really Excited About it

Hi there! If you haven’t heard, cushions are all the rage in Korea. No, I’m not talking about those plush, comfy things you throw on your couch (although I am a huge fan of those too). Instead, I am referring to possibly the biggest Korean beauty trend since the BB cream (and subsequently the CC cream)….

Unboxing Memebox: Get It Beauty Box (April Korean Edition)

Hi friends! If y’all remember this far back, last month I had my first experience with Memebox… and it wasn’t the best. I mean, it was okay, but nothing great. The fact that it had a MASSIVE bottle of Nivea body cream didn’t exactly help matters! However, I decided to jump back into the fire and…

Aaaaand It’s Another Nature Republic Haul From Me

Hi friends, I have now reached the point where I have a backlog of Korean cosmetic haul posts to write, and I don’t know how I feel about that. I mean, I mostly feel good, but I occasionally feel a bizarre twinge of guilt for spending so much (not that much) money on myself and…

Sample Sundays: Skinfood Black Sugar Strawberry Mask Wash Off (Review)

Hi friends! So you may remember (but probably won’t) a loooong time ago I stated that I would be writing a review on Skinfood’s Black Sugar Strawberry Wash Off Mask. Also, that it would be part of my Sample Sundays series and would thus come out on a Sunday. Weeellll, half of that is still…

Missha’s Facial Choco Cacao Scrub is a Chocolatey Dream (Review)

Hi friends, Long time no see! Recently I’ve been enjoying the shops in Korea even more than usual, hence my delayed absence. It’s a bit out of hand, and I’m having a great time. Last month I hit up Missha for a few items… and it hit my wallet back. It’s truly a wonderful thing! For…

My Recent Haul From The Face Shop

Hi everyone! As you all know, I am a through-and-through Nature Republic girl, and while I am pretty open to trying other Korean brands such as Skinfood, Missha and Holika Holika, one that has never really taken my fancy too much is The Face Shop. Honestly, I think the reason for this is that the Guri Face…

Sample Sundays: Holika Holika Good Cera Super Cream (REVIEW)

Hey y’all, So let’s get the big fat pink elephant out of the room first: yes, this Sample Sunday is coming to you on a Tuesday. It’s happening. I know I have been a bit, how do you say, loose with these but I feel like I have had my reasons (what a justification!). Gav actually came…

Aesop’s Geranium Leaf Body Scrub is Amazing

Hi everyone, So the title of today’s post pretty much gives it away and sums it up in one fell swoop. Mysterious, no? When I was back home for a minute, I decided it was my time to indulge in everything Australian, which included Tim Tams, muesli, underwear and, of course, cosmetics. Before I even…

Rave Alert! My Mizon + A’Pieu Gmarket Purchases

Hi friends! One of the best things about living in Korea is Gmarket. For those of you who don’t know, Gmarket is the Korean equivalent of… well, I don’t actually think we’ve come up with something equally as AWESOME so it is sort of in a league of its own. Basically, its a website where…

My March Favourites

Hi guys! So recently I have become addicted to Youtube. Yes, I have all sorts of addictions and they are growing by the day. This one, however, I count as relaxation, as I could listen to the smooth, dulcet tones of Vivianna Does Makeup and Lily Pebbles for eons. It’s just so nice and they’re…
