So, because of my Beuateuqe experience (long story short, they wouldn’t return my emails and falsely advertised a product) the CEO was nice enough to apologize profusely to me, as well as give me two pretty awesome deals. A 25$ credit, and a free Beauty Bag (22$ normally, and a supposed 65$ value)

With my 25 dollar credit, I decided to get the products in the first picture below.

-Etude House Skin mal:gem fresh

-I’m Real Broccoli Masks

The only thing I needed a new thing of was toner, and I also needed to up my price to 25$, so I just got the masks. Of courseeee, after I placed this order, I got the lovely toner in my Thanksgiving Memebox..So I’m thinking I’ll just use one AM (probably Etude House), one PM? Does anybody ever double tone? Like use one toner right after another? I’m being 100% serious here…Or I could just hoard one until the others gone. Guess we’ll see.

Next up is my complimentary Beauty Bag.The ‘theme’ of this was ‘Diva Diner’ as you can see on the card next to the yellow makeup bag which everything came in. I applaud them for their weird, yet kind of smart marketing technique. On the back of the card is ‘Welcome to diva diner, where we’re always open and serving up six delectable, diva worthy beauty specials’. Corny, but I kinda dig it.

Anyways, My favorite color is actually yellow, so bonus points for that. I have a crap ton of makeup bags that store miscellaneous things that aren’t makeup, so this will add to the collection. I’ll be putting my AB samples in this one.

The bag does have 65$ worth of products in it, however, that’s 65$ of inflated American prices.

Here’s a picture of everything I got, and some first impressions. I’ve put the prices that the card gave me beside the products, so keep in mind that, like I said these are the inflated prices. Definitely no RoseRoseShop prices here!

*Mizon White Sleeping Mask (50ml, 12$)

I’m super excited about this because I’ve heard great things. I technically already have a sleeping pack (3W Clinic Snail Mucus Soothing Gel..but its freaking gigantic and will take me forever to use) but using this for awhile will be great. And I know where to get it for half the price if I really like it as much as everyone says.

*It’s Skin Green Tea Lips & Eye Cleansing Pad (13.50$)

These seem pretty cool. I’m in a lazy phase of makeup wearing, so I’m not sure when I’d use these. The scent is also super overpowering. It does not smell nice and gentle like my innisfree green tea essence. I may give this to a friend for Christmas.

*Mizon Collagen Power Firming Eye Cream (16.50$)–gasping at this price as opposed to RRS

Also pretty excited about this. I’m using the last of my current eye cream (a little sample of tarte maracuja c-brightener) and haven’t really researched Asian brands. So if I like it, I know where to get a wicked cheaper version when it runs out.

*Cosmos Facial Blotting Tissue (6$)

Can’t really go wrong with blotting papers. Also..how cute is the little sticky that gets the blotting paper ready for you!?!?! I had no idea blotting papers could get so lazy, but I won fight this little innovation.

*The Face Shop Blackhead Out Aloe Nose Strip (5.25$)

So, it’s still pretty bad to actually use these, right? Or does because it’s the Face Shop make them OK? I have to admit, one of my first loves was Biore pore strips. I’m just recently learning that they’re not that great for you 😦 I may have to try at leastttt one. Old habits die hard, am I right? And then maybe I can give the others to my friends if the overwhelming response is to not keep using them.

*Beauteque Scarf (12$)

No idea where they got this scarf, they could have paid one dollar for it for all I know. There were two options, a floral print, and a blue and white print. On the website they’re not terribly clear http://www.beauteque.com/november-beauteque-beauty-bag-us-edition/ (for reference)

Already having a few floral scarves, I chose the interesting looking blue and white pattern. What a surprise to me, to open up the scarf and see a fucking gathering of long legged deer. Seriously, what is going on in that close up? Is there a person? Does the inner circle of deer have 5 legs?

I don’t know what the hell is going on is the scarf. In all fairness though it is very soft, and I’m a picky bitch when it comes to textures of scarves. And, when you actually put the scarf on, you can’t tell its hundred of deformed deer. I kind of have a love/hate relationship with the absurdity of the scarf. If anything, if I don’t use it I’ll put it up on my wall for a great conversation piece.

In conclusion, ALL of this stuff cost me 5.85$ (the cost of shipping) let me just repeat that.. 5.85$ for 11 full sized items (including the individual sheet masks and makeup bag)

So regardless of the overpowering cleansing pads and weird scarf, I pretty much won with this shipment, and have a lot of great items to use.
