COSRX Haul

I've always been a huge fan of the COSRX pimple pads. I've used up 3 containers (210 pads) of it and I seriously loved it so much I decided to try other things from the brand as well. 

Now that I'm no longer a youth I decided that I need to try harder to take care of my skin. I'll show you guys my skincare routine in the next post. Please stay tuned

SEPHORA Favorites: Beauty's Most Coveted

Hey guys! Back with a post on Sephora's new favourites collection. This year Sephora has been doing pretty well with all the new sets introduced. Every year I look forward to the new collections they'll put together to sell and this year, I've found my all time favourite. It is the Trending: Beauty's Most Coveted kit by Sephora Favorites. Let's have a look at the products inside!

If you want to find the individual items directly on Sephora, I've put a link on the title of the product so you it'll bring you straight to Sephora's website and you can just add it into your cart! 




The packaging for this year is truly stunning with its holographic details and cut out. It is so eye catching and pretty.


1) Foreo -  LUNA™ play in Fuchsia (C$59)


I was honestly the most stocked about this product. I've always wanted to try the FOREO cleansing device and I'm so glad I'm able to now


2) Laura Mercier - Translucent Loose Setting Powder + Puff Travel Size (C$28)


Another item I was already planning to buy so when I saw that it was included in the kit I knew I had to get the kit immediately


3) beautyblender - beautyblender® nude (C$28)


I was planning to get a new beautyblender since my last one disappeared mysteriously



4) Kat Von D - Tatto Liner in Trooper (C$25) 


Full sized black eyeliner from Kat Von D - perfect




4) NARS - Radiant Creamy Concealer in Custard Travel Size (C$16)


Possibly the most popular concealer at the moment. Unfortunate that this only comes in one shade (custard) in the kit because I'm sure there are a lot of people who are not this shade even though a lot of YouTubers only seem to use this shade



6) Urban Decay - VICE Lipstick in 714 (C$21)





7) The Estée Edit - The Edgiest Kohl Shadowstick in Black Viper (C$26)


I've never tried anything from this brand but after swatching it I think it's really smooth and pretty. This is another one of the full-sized items.



8) COVER FX - Enhance Click Highlighter in Bubbly (C$24) 


Although it's really small it's a full sized rose gold highlighter which is gorgeous



9) Becca Cosmetics - Shimmering Skin Perfector Pressed in Moonstone Travel Size (C$14 Value)



I've always wanted to try this out but could never spend the C$46 on it. The travel size is perfect because I know that I would never come close to finishing this



10) Benefit Cosmetics Ka-Brow! in Shade 3 (C$12 Value)


I thought this was a full size item but it seems like it isn't



11) Tarte Marine Boosting 4-in-1 Mist





12) Glamglow® Supermud®



I am honestly in love with this kit. Normally in kits like this there'll be some items that you know are only put in there because it cannot sell. However, I don't see any in this kit. As its name suggests (Beauty's Most Coveted), I see products that have been extremely popular included in this kit which I am very thrilled about because this allows beauty lovers such as myself to try a bunch of makeup that is trending without breaking the bank. This kit is priced at C$90 which I think is extremely reasonably considering that there are 12 bestsellers in here with 4 full-sized make up product and 2 very useful tool ( Foreo & beautyblender). I HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend buying this kit because of it's great value. You'll get to try 12 different trending beauty items at an affordable cost. Pick it up before it gets sold out!

I'm glad our paths crossed

I'm a firm believer that everything happens for a reason. Sometimes, when you meet someone there's just a really strong feeling, almost like an epiphany. You'll know that this encounter really had a big impact on your life. Personally I don't get this feeling often but when it comes it really hits me like a truck. Meeting people in circumstances like that make me realise what a funny thing fate is and that I'm really grateful to have met you. Glad to have met you Joash, I hope our paths will cross again in the future (preferably near)

HAUL & REVIEW: Cathycat Code Glokolor X Moomin Edition

This will be the first out of the MANY Korean cosmetic hauls that I'll post since I've been really bad and I've bought many things. The first part will be the collaboration from CathyCat Code glokolor x Moomin. To be completely honest, I've never heard of this brand prior to this but how could I resist the adorable packaging honestly?? I've tried searching for reviews and what not but it was so limited. I believe it's a relatively new brand in the market but DAMN GURL they're doing it right. I'm already in love with the brand. JUST LOOK AT THE PACKAGING *heart eyes*



There are actually many items in the collection but I only picked up 3 items at the moment and I definitely plan to get more. I've actually had these items since February but I only have time to haul it now because I've honestly been SO busy. Anyway let me show you the items I got. By the way you guys can get these items from gmarket (which is where I got mine from!!!) sidenote: gmarket is evil guys don't get addicted like me.



1) Code Glokor & Moomin All-uid Foundation EX



No, seriously just look at that packaging guys. How can anyone resist this?? This one comes with a refill and mine is in the darker shade which is No.22.5 (the colour numbering system is so weird what is with the decimals?) I've tried this one a few times and I would say it doesn't feel like a cushion at all. Maybe it's because it's not a cushion? It's actually in the form of a pump. You'll have to press down on a button to dispense the produce you would require. For me it usually takes 2 pumps for me to cover my face. 

The packaging of this is ace. The product itself is also really good with high coverage and it's one of the more matte foundations, especially in Korea where dewy is the way to go. This is the perfect texture of foundation for me with it being not too thick and not too thin, and with the finish just the way I like it. I do notice a little bit of creasing under my eyes when I use it but it's nothing too bad. I usually use a No.23 in other Korean cosmetics and I would say this foundation suited me as well. I haven't used this too much to do a full review but from the times I've used it I really do enjoy it and the packaging just seals the deal for me.





2) Code Glokolor & Moomin L Ice Metal Cushion


This is the other foundation available in this range and I actually haven't tried this yet so I can't do a review. Please let me know if you guys want a review. I've opened the product already and I think it's seriously cool how the surface of the cushion is metal. I hope it'll be cooling during application. I'll try it out and let you guys know how it works for me! This is also in No.22.5


3) Code Glokor & Moomin M. Lip Tint Balm



I'm still not sure why I chose a lip balm over the lip tint at that point of time. Maybe it was because of the cute ass packaging but this is what I got in the end. I got it in medium which is a cherry red. I wouldn't say it's terribly pigmented but I think it's pigmented enough that it will actually tint your lip to that colour and the colour is build-able so if you want something stronger it'll be possible. It isn't very moisturizing also but it does feel much better than a lipstick.


I'm really sad I only got three of the items in the range but I'll definitely be picking up more. They actually just released a new line of gmarket so I'm REALLY EXCITED because there are so many things I want to get my hands on in the new collection! Which of the items do you guys want to get? HAPPY SHOPPING GUYS!!!
