G-market Haul!

Hi guys!

I recently made an order on G-Market with Olivia and so I thought I would share with you guys what I got. If you guys aren't familiar with G-Market, then it's a Korean based website that sells pretty much everything, both Korean brands and well known brands (like a Korean version of Ebay). I love this site because the products are cheap, and you don't have to worry about whether the seller is legit or not. When it comes to Korean Cosmetic Brands, there's a sale on most of the time so you can save lots! And you get freebees with every purchase.

What I love about all of these is that they were all under $10 AUD!! Keep your eyes open for these as I'll review these in the near future. If you guys get the opportunity to check out G-Market then definitely do so! 
See you soon! ^_^

How to: cure dry skin

Hi guys!

I was thinking about my skin and my skincare products and I though I would give you some tips on how to save your skin from being dry. When I was in high school, I had serious trouble with dry skin. All of the tips I found online didn't work for me and there weren't many tips for dry skin in the first place since the majority suffer from oily skin.These tips have saved my skin, and it would be great if you guys are living opposite Australia, since it's going to be getting colder. 

DISCLAIMER: These tips are just from my experience with dry skin and what has worked for me. I can't guarantee that these tips will work for you, since everyone has different skin types.

My love/hate relationship: The Face Shop Nail Polishes

Hi guys!

I was cleaning my room today and I was going through my nail polishes and I've realised that I have quite a few. So here's the thing. I love the colours that The Face Shop have for nail polishes. They have lots of varieties of colours, finishes and textures.

Left to right: PP403, PP401, PK109, OR205, GR501, RD302
These are cream finishes

Left to right: PP406 (glitter/shimmer finish), BK901 (a black crack polish)

 But there are 3 things I CAN NOT stand about them. 

1. Drying time
 They take forever to dry! I would leave them to dry for about 5 hours in total with doing the cold water method also, but for the reason I would sleep and the next day I would still see prints on my nails, meaning that they haven't dried properly... 

2. Formula
 Iv'e talked about this before, but I really hate the formulas for the polishes! They can chip within the first day and can look horrible by the end of the week. And the thing that bugs me the most is that the formulas are different to each other! It's really just luck when it comes to getting the good formulated ones.

3. Packaging
 Since I do have a few polishes of course I would expect them to have the same packaging and all of that. But for some of my polishes, the handle of the actual polish comes off the brush part!




So I hope this was helpful if you were thinking of getting polishes from The Face Shop. Just keep these points in mind before buying them. Although there are thing I really can't stand about these, I still think they are worth a try and are quite cheap compared to other brands. See you soon! ^_^

Just wanted to share with you what I'm loving at the moment



My new Beast Album!

If you guys didn't know already, I'm in love with Beast! They're a 6 member Korean boy group and they're quite popular right now. This is the newest album called Midnight Sun, and I'm loving the songs in this album.

1. Midnight
2. Beautiful night
3. It's not me
4. 니가 보고 싶어지면  (when I miss you; I think that's the translated title...)
5. 니가 싀는 날
6. Dream girl

The second and fifth track is definitely my favourite! If you guys get the chance, check it out! See you soon! ^_^

K Talk: anticipated dramas

Hi guys!

It's time for K talk again, and in this post I'm going to talk about the most anticipated dramas as of now.

1. To the beautiful you
 This is definitely a drama I'm going to keep track of! After watching both the Taiwanese and Japanese version of this drama, I've hoped that there would be a Korean re-make of this, and it's finally going to be aired as of three days from today! If you guys haven't heard of this drama, it's suppose to be a re-make of the manga of Hanazakari no kimitachi e. It's one of those "everyone has seen" dramas. Even my friends that aren't really into watching dramas has at least seen this! It's got Minho (SHINee) and Sulli (f(x) ) as the main characters, and since I'm SM bias, of course I'm going to support this drama!

2. Faith
 I actually have no idea what this drama is about but it's got of my favourite actors in it. Lee Min Ho is one of the main characters and I think he acts as a knight or something. I first saw him in a drama called I Am Sam, and he is more known for his role in Boys Over Flowers (another classic drama) as Goo Jun Pyo.

3. Arang and the Magistrate
 Another drama I want to watch, purely for the actors! It's got Lee Jun Ki and Shin Min Ah as the main characters. I love them both and looking at the pictures for this press conference, they look really good together! It's first episode aired on the 8th so hopefully the subtitles come out soon!


That's all folks! If you guys know any other dramas that are coming out that you recommend watching, or you have any other drama to recommend, please leave a comment below! I'm slowing running out of things to watch. See you soon! ^_^
