MAC mini-haul and first impressions!

Hey guys! Here's a tiny MAC haul along with some first impressions : D I originally went to MAC to get a concealer, but the girl just looked at me and went "Concealer? 왜요? 그걸필요없잖아요..." (A concealer? Why? You don't need one..) so I left with 3 products - none of them being a concealer. lol. I don't dare say "nice skin problems" because you'd probably all throw darts at me.. but really though, I never used concealer before! D: I wanna try it! /sigh/ Anyway, here's what I got!

FIRST IMPRESSION: So nice! The girl at the store put it on me, and can we just talk about how weird it is that makeup artists use those "paint brushes" to apply foundation with? I'm a regular person.. walking to the MAC counter with a friend. This is not a movie - or photoshoot. Stop that! :C It's unhygienic (at least imo), it packs on too much product AND it makes the foundation appear super streaky. So let's just all agree that we should never do that. Ever. 

Anyway, when applied with my (clean!!) fingers, it looks super nice as is, but I like to blend it out with my Sigma F80 anyway.. because I'm a perfectionist. When I wear anything on my skin, I want it to look as if I'm not wearing anything at all. I don't understand how so many of those Youtube girls can PACK on product as was it their last day on earth without feeling grimy. Sure, we can't see it on camera - but I wouldn't wanna be your skin at the end of the day o__o yuck! Natural-looking foundation all the way pl0x!

FIRST IMPRESSION: Love it! Needless to say, haha! I've been on a crazy-ass peach-blush addiction-wave for the past 6 months (if not more) and I LOVE 'EM ALL! I got Peaches from MAC already and I love that one too.. Ugh, so nice! -hugs peach tone blushes- Let me love you all! I never realized how well peach tones emphasize my skincolor, but being the yellow-skinned girl that I am - it's all good. The girl at the MAC store I went to seemed rather surprised that I knew a lot of MAC names (for products and shades) AND that all the stuff I wanted to try on looked good on me. She wanted to put a very coral shade lipstick on me.. It didn't look bad, but when she said "It'll look good with the peach blush that you picked" I was like ".... -__- no" lol. Anyway, this peach tone blush is "Immortal Flower" and I've been eyeing it at MAC in not only Korea but also back home. I love it to bits! If you're an ulzzang-lover (or just a sucker for the clean look and pale skin) this color is perfect for you ^__^)/

FIRST IMPRESSION: I usually hate the term "Your lips but better-color" because let's face it.. why the fuck would I wanna spend money on a lipstick that has the same color as my lips but apparently looks "better"? Don't be silly now. This color is close to my own lipcolor. It looks dark in the tube, but when applied it has a subtle pink hue to it. I like it a lot! Oh, it's Creme Cup btw! Can you believe that the color a lot of girls use as their "nude" is a dark nude pink for me? Ugh pale yellow girl problems. LOL. When I saw that my prep+prime color was "Extra Light" I almost died. Haha!

That's it! Ahh, it's been a while since I dipped back into beauty huh? I bought a lot of stuff lately that I can't afford, and I really wanted to share it with you in a haul video.. But I'm not sure how to go about that. -__-" I also wanted to do a Spring Essentials video! Let's see how well that goes.. lol. Also got another kpop haul coming up! Leggoooo~!

Oh btw!

Let's all take a few minutes to enjoy Jay Park's new song "좋아 (JOAH)" (lol wtf is with his romanization.. I thought Joah was a name of a girl he liked..) It's so epic!

Thanks for reading!

MUCH LOVE

PS: We have not been bombed yet

HolikaHolika HAUL~ (+ some stuff from Watson's)

What better way to celebrate getting money.. than spending them? That was exactly my mindset when walking into HOLIKAHOLIKA for the first time yesterday. I wanted to look at stuff for KATIE, but I ended up spending W35.000 on myself. LOL. Sorry Katie.

Here's what I got:

I also went to Watson's, which is where I got the two eyeliners. I lost my beloved NYX Slide on Pencil liner a few weeks ago (obviously when drunk at a club, lol) and since NYX is super expensive here, I wanted to try a new one. 

I got the peripera smoothie waterproof pencil liner which also contains small silver glitters. It was the softest, most pigmented black I could find and it was only W7.000! Score! And let me just tell you.. it IS waterproof indeed. I still can't get it off my hand after doing the swatch. Haha!

I also needed a new liquid liner as my KissMe Heroine was running low and getting a bit patchy. I was gonna get a new one of the KissMe liner, but I found this one with Lee Hyori on it and since it was WAY more black than the KissMe one, I gave it a try. I haven't used any of the products on my face yet, but I'm definitely excited to!

I also got a blush brush (which looks more like a powder brush). It looks a bit rough in the picture (not sure why) but it's SUUUPER soft and only W7.000 as well (from what I can remember).. I actually thought that it'd be a bit smaller, but I guess this could work too. If not for blush - then powder, maybe?

Yay! Lashes! I LOVE my Watson's KISS lashes that were only W4.000 for two pairs, but I keep forgetting what they look like when I'm at the store.. lol, so I got a pair of HolikaHolika lashes as well.. Just to try out! I'm super into this style lately, as they look way more natural than my other ones. I can't find the Gil &... something, lol, that Yinnie got me in China last year. I LOVED those, but yeah.. Where to find? T_T So yeah, I'm trying these : D Pretty, right?

Somehow the sales lady talked me into trying this. It's a foam cleanser.. lol. The name.. "JELLY" Hahaha better buy some for all the haters, huh? : P Just kidding.. but it's supposed to be good for my skin. I was looking at another one and she was like "No no get this one. It'll leave your skin much softer  bla bla Korean words that I didn't pick up lol bla bla". She seemed really happy that we spoke Korean to her, so she kept blabbering forever and ever. Very nice though, very nice lady indeed! Haha!

Now to the best part! BLUSHES! Aren't they just adorable? The colors and packaging.. Ahh~ so nice! I esp. love the lilac color cause it reminds me of my FAVORITE blush ever by e.l.f. cosmetics. It's from their mineral line and it's called "Joy". If you're fair skin, slightly yellow-toned - get it! It's beautiful! I love both of these. They're super soft and only 7,000 per color! I'm probably gonna get all of them. I have a feeling that HOLLYANNAEREE would love these too! Haha! I think there were 5 or 6 colors in total.. I got two of the lightest ones as I'm super pale.. even compared to the Koreans I'm pale. O_O wth.

Last but not least! On the left - FREE SAMPLES YESSSS! Tons of them! Ahh~ I love buying beauty products in Korea.. They always pack your bag with a shit ton of free samples of pretty much anything in the store.. Hoho so nice! I also picked up one sheet mask! Pearl essence - yes please. If you can read Korean, it says 맑은 피부 which basically means "clear skin". But we used to learn 맑다 back in Copenhagen as a word related to the weather ("clear" meaning "no clouds"), so I keep giggling when I see it cause I relate it to "cloud free skin" lol. Stupid, I know.. I like grammar ok. /sobs.

Anyway! That's it! I got my next post arranged already! Got a package from home that I wanna show you guys (along with my beautiful BOY LONDON tshirt) and I also got a wonderful present from Kat and Nezumi! An early Christmas present you could say.. ㅋㅋㅋ Have a lovely weekend and to all my Korean residents: 

해피추석, 여러분! ^__^)/

MUCH LOVE!
