It's been a while since my last post of beauty haul.This haul is a mix between my summer 2018 Korea trip and recent beauty restock for the past six month.I kinda satisfied with myself because it means that one of my new year goals suceed (to limit myself with impulsive shopping on beauty stuff).
I can spend the rest of shopping spree budget on things that I frequently used and need as fashion investment such as statement dresses, shoes,bags,etc.
So here we go, My half year beauty supplies haul
First thing first, Skincare !
The Faceshop 365 Herb Day is my most basic skincare routine item must have - it's incredibly cheap - only around KRW3500 . Been using for about 3 years ,and still loving it.
Nature Republic Real Nature Mask - 1 Nature Republic Mask usually cost me around IDR 25-30K. But in Myeongdong, I only got it 10 plus 10 ; 20 for only KRW1000 - or around IDR5k each <3
The other Nature Republic item that i got is none other than the famous ALOE VERA Soothing Gel. Yep, the quality does worth the price like what they said on blog reviews / vlog but it does run out quickly too for such daily basis usage..im gonna repurchase only when I feel like to.
Next ,I got The Saem Healing Tea Garden Make Up Remover and The Saem Iceland Hydrating Emulsion, which is, my third bottle for 2 years in a row! I love it for real because my skin got healthier ever since I first used it and less cranky.
For body care.. I always loyal with Marks&Spencer Body Lotion, especially their La Maison Fleur series..this time is Mimosa flower extract --a delicate scent yet not too overpowering .
additional - OntheBody x Kakao Apeach Facial Mask
Didn't really familiar with the brand yet since im so fond with
Kakao Friends character, i couldn't help it !
Make Up Section
Rosy Rosa Eyelashes - is actually a Japanese brand but manufactured in China--that's why don't be surprised to see 'made in china' label yet their lashes quality is as good as another Japanese lashes ( if i have to say.. almost same with Diamond Lashes)It's The Saem again ! -- got myself The Saem Ecosoul Powerproof Tank Liner , (which is superb quick drying , waterproof liner ever and perfect to draw eyeliner neatly) and Saemmul Browcara.
For lip item, I got myself my first Sephora matte lip stain Pink Haze - it has vibrant, pigmented barbie pink finish with just IDR185k. I'm impressed with how it's not turn sticky after applied, not like the other usual matte liquid lipstick.
Jill Stuart Loose in Liquid - a soft powder in form of liquid. Costed me around KRW38000 .It has light coverage and sheer finish. However , I prefer their Airy Tint Watery CC Cream (review here) for daily use, over this product. I only got use of this one when I'm too lazy to do my make up but still has to put at least- minimal make up on. The packaging is still impressive as ever so i guess despite the price,it's not a waste too.
Zara Tuberose Eau de Toilette 100 mL
Got this 2 in 1 as package with the Wonderose series as birthday present.. It has unique kind of floral scent (blackcurrant-tuberose-vanilla), not too sweet unlike the Wonderose one and suitable for day and night.
That's all .. In the end..my most favorite supplies is.. THE SAEM Iceland Hydrating Emulsion <3
What's about your favorite beauty haul supplies of the year? I'd like to hear more,

It was a beautiful morning, I can feel the warmth of sun on my face.. little did i know, i am finally arrived at SEOUL, South korea. I always wanted to go this country after got hooked by kpop and dramas since 2009. All begin with a kpop music video ; SNSD - GEE .Since then, I always dreamed to land into this so-called heart of Asia. Yet , fate brought me here only by 2018, such a long period of waiting - but it was worth it :)
My first random Seoul's street picture taken from bus
We stayed for 1 night at L'Art Hotel Gimpo ,kind of suburb area of Seoul yet still near within the reach of Gimpo Airport - where we need to go to the day after for Jeju.I was utterly surprised when I woke up that the weather is such warm and nice. Unlike the night before when I was first arrived at Incheon airport ; freezing cold around 15°C ! Our local guide, said that this is what Summer in Korea really like : warm at day, cold at noon.
So after breakfast, we pack up our luggage, get in the bus and went straight to the ..National Folk House. Before that ,we passed by this iconic building...
The Blue House / Cheong Wa Dae
Here's a presidential house ,executive office and official residence of South Korea. Our local guide said this is the place where the South Koreans political protests mostly happen, including resignation petition for ex President ,Park Geun Ye.
NATIONAL FOLK MUSEUM OF KOREA
There is reason why this place was our first visited site in Seoul , is simply because you can literally know more about KOREA inside out. From culture, ideology, cuisine,language and everything else from ancient Korea till the end of Joseon Dinasty. This place totally broaden my perspective about Korean people and their way of living and so on .For example ; why there is so much scenes on Korean drama with noonas and dongsaeng romantic relationship ?You'll get the answer here
( well, our local guide explained so as we observed the historical replica)
GYEONGBOKGUNG PALACE
I'm sure you know all about this place. This place is mostly seen in Korean period drama and in every Korea tourism promotional board videos . Gyeongbokgung is a main royal palace of Joseon Dinasty,it is also the biggest palace and most well-known touristy sites in South Korea. I still remember in 2011 when I watched 'Annyeong Korea with 2PM' ( you can watch it here ) ,an interactive movie about travel in Korea , there's a scene that my (then) idol bias, 2PM Wooyoung promoted this palace. Now even though I'm not that into Kpop anymore, I am still fond of this place and I'm happy to finally be there.
Spacious and Panoramic
Here you can also transform into Korean girl in Hanbok for a day. With perfect spot, perfect ootd, perfect weather, I bet you'll shoot some nice instagram -able photos ! Gyeongbokgung is such a place you shouldn't miss to visit after all!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Being here after a day, All i can say is there's difference of Korea from what I expected before. I used to 'know' it from, internet,K- dramas, and books before. Now after being there for real, I can see the true beauty and sides of Korea which is not shown in front of screen. This is, the true Korea and captures my heart.
That's all about my Korea travel post day 1.. I'll post the day 2, 3,4,5 soon on this blog.
Thanks for reading <3

( it's the same with shampooing your hair !)
Result & Conclusion
I'm not enclosed any before after picture hair here because there's not much difference putting on black hair color on black hair ,lol ! But it does made my mum hair looks more shiny and it does minimize about 50% appearance of her gray hairs! Well,at least we tried, and it works a bit , nah? lol. She also said that this product is very practical,easy to use,a time-saving hair dye she ever tried, and smells good too( prolly, because of the silky perfumed hair treatment).
Yet, we realize that it is not the kind of product for those who looking for a permanent look. it just an instant - hack product to blacken your hair a bit before any big-day like gathering / party and eventually will fades after 4 months or so.
