I ordered from two different companies, and through the magic of USPS, they both came the same day! Below are photos of each – that will give you an idea of what I will be posting on in the future…

First the Jolse shipment: I ordered from Jolse on 3 Feb, it was shipped the next day. It didn’t leave Incheon until 8 Feb, and arrived on the West coast on 17 Feb, taking an additional 3 days to wend its’ way towards my final location.

The only things I bought were the Benton Aloe BHA skin toner and the TonyMoly backstage gel eyeliner. Everything else is a sample.

I’ll have a review on this by the end of the week – I’ve been using it over the weekend, and I like to give each skincare product a straight week one way or another.

The gel eyeliner. I’ll aim for a midweek review of this stuff – I generally know within a day (if not within an hour!) if I like a product or not.

Clockwise from top left: TonyMoly I’m Real lotions in Seaweed Aqua Moisture and Lemon Brightening, Etude House Fresh Cherry Tint (x2), Etude House Collagen Moistfull Cream, Etude House I’m Blooming brightening wash-off gel, Etude House Cotton Fit BB Cream, The Face Shop New Zealand Volcanic Clay black head charcoal nose strip, and some random blotting sheets. I gave the BB cream sample and the blotting sheets to my mother, but I kept the rest. I’ll give mini-reviews of these later – mostly whether they are worth checking out or not.

I also got my shipment from Missha!!! I ordered it and it arrived within a week – much excitement that day, that’s all I can say.

I may have gone a wee bit crazy, but in my defense, they were having a good sale.

Free gift. If they are anything like the DHC version, I’m just going to stick them in my gym bag and use them after working out.

New sunblock! I’ve already done a patch test – so far so good! I’ll use up the rest of my Clinique sunblock and start wearing this by next weekend at the latest.

This wasn’t really what I was expecting. I’ll write it up as a review later this week – it wasn’t bad…but not really what I thought it would be like…

Missha’s BB sample kit, which I think is pretty clever. Most of these I will give away to friends and family, by I reserved No. 13 for myself…

More samples: Missha’s Signature Complete in #23, Super Aqua Waterfull Cream, M Perfect Cover BB Cream in #27, and the Complexion Coordination BB in #1. I only kept the last one, as the others I have already tried, or know they are not the right tone for my skin…

This is Missha’s famous Time Revolution Overnight Repair New Science Activator Ampoule. I liked Estee Lauder’s ANR quite a lot…but not enough to shell out $100 for it. This was on a really excellent flash sale, so I’ll see how I like this when I add it into my routine next weekend.

This is Missha’s M Super-Extreme Waterproof Color Fix Line. I can tell you this…it is not waterproof. It is a really nice color, though.

This is Missha’s Signature Glam Art Rouge. It’s pretty much exactly what I was looking for…which made me very happy!

And here is the 5th anniversary sample pack. Clockwise from top left: Urban Soul First Treatment Essence, Super Aqua Cell Renew Snail Cream, Complexion Coordination BB in #2, Premium Dong Baek Gold Shampoo, Real Essential Multi-Vita Sheet Mask, Misa Geumsul Overnight Cream, Misa Geumsul First Essense Booster, Time Revolution Overnight Repair New Science Activator Ampoule, and L’eau de Missha.

I gave the Urban Soul sample to my youngest brother, and half of the rest to my mother – I kept the Misa samples, the sheet mask, and the shampoo.

I’m awaiting a shipment from RRS with skincare (for me) and miscellaneous makeup (for my mom). In the meantime…reviews! Thanks for bearing with my bad photography skills.
