My Latest Gets

Hello hello! I have been shopping a little lately, spring really wakes up the raging materialist inside me. So I decided to share what I have hauled so far! Also my mom went to Estonia and she brought me some souvenirs so I'm including them here too. I'm sorry for the slightly bad quality of the photos, I don't know what happened. They looked good on my phone, I swear!

skirtandstockings

These three are the souvenirs I got from my mom (Love ya btw ♥), the sweater and the necklaces are from H&M. I actually asked her to look for that sweater, because our local H&M didn't have it and I hate to order from the H&M online store (I have traumas) The skirt and stockings are from Terranova I believe. They're kind of wild haha, lets see if I can style them nicely.

sunglasses
hmdress

The sunglasses are from Lindex. I really love them they're so perfect !! I actually haven't owned a pair of nice sunglasses since junior highschool maybe? Anyway, loving these a lot.

The dress is from H&M and it was on sale for 5 euros. The dress actually came with a same colored string belt, but I decided to use it for other purposes and wear some other belt with the dress instead. 

$okos

These I actually got today, when I went to the city with my mom and her bf! The nailpolish thinner (=kynsilakanohentaja, oh Finnish♥) is indeed from Trind and it cost only 5 euros, such a bargain. I really have been eyeing nailpolish thinners for a while, because I have so many thickened nailpolishes it's insane. The price has always made me not to buy one, I'm such a cheapskate lol.

I also got a Color Fresh Hair Toner from Wella in 5/0 light brown. I really like my hair color now, because it's so close to my natural color, so I don't have to color it almost at all and I would like to keep it that way. But somehow my hair looks so bland and boring to me, so I wanted something to change it a little. If this stuff is good, I might try out the other colors too just for fun. 

So thats all for this time! I have been writing some reviews, so if nothing interesting happens in my life, I can shower you with reviews. See you next time ♥

Quick Update: New Shoes ~

Hey guys! How was your Valentines Day? I hope you received lots of love !
I recieved love from my mom in the form of shoes!
I went shopping with her and found these awesome shoes and she decided to buy these for me! Thank you mom, I love you. ♡
Actually I found these from a local supermarket called Prisma. They were on sale, -50% off the original price, which was about 69,95€. Not bad, right? 
Sometimes you can find great stuff from suprising places and I don't think it matters where you buy your clothes/shoes/accessories as long as they look good and fit your style or needs.
I spent my Valentines Day studying, hanging around with my mom and also saw my boyfriend for a while. Not so romantic or special, but there are 364 other days in a year to be romantic. Even though I'm not a romantic person hahah!
Don't mind the typos that this post may contain! I decided to try the Blogger app, that I have had unused on my phone for a while. I think I wont use this app often in the future, because this is very clumsy. Adding pictures sucks even more than with the actual Blogger. 
Soo yeah. I feel like post is a bit messy, so it's better to end it here! Seeya ~

Sale finds

Helloo! I have done some sales shopping past few weeks and decided to show you guys what I have found.

We went to Sello shopping centre one day and I found these awesome things from Vero Moda. There was a "buy three, pay 10€" thingie and I chose those! It was really a mission to find something from those racks, there were a lot of people swarming around it and I really hate crowds when I'm trying to get somewhere.
The tops brand is Vero Moda and the leggings brand is Pieces.
The leggings don't look too good on that picture,  I don't own a pants/bottom hanger. But I wore these in my outfit post and you can find some better pictures here.

The red cardigan on the left is also a find from Sello. It's from Vero Moda, as you can probably see, but the brand(?) is Only. The striped shirt on the right is from H&M Divided.

These are from Lindex. Couldn't add the fancy text to this picture, because it's so daaaark.

School started agaaain, only a month to go! I haven't slept enough last night so I'm going to sleep now, yes.

Etude House Collagen Moistfull Cream & First Essence review + Ebay seller review

298

Etude House Collagen Moistfull Cream 

Description:Formulated with Baobab Leaf Mucus and 30% of hydrolyzed Marine Collagen, this refreshing, yet concentrated moisturizer penetrates deeply to hydrate and firm for a youthful water bouncy skin. 4-Free Formula: No Parabens, Benzophenone, Mineral Oil, Talc.

How to use:
Every day after cleansing and toning, massage evenly over face. Pat to finish.
 

Consistensy: Even though it's called a cream, it's more like a gel. It is easy to spread and it sort of glides on your skin. A little goes a long way with this one.

299

Smell: The smell is very fresh and it reminds me of the smell of pine trees and spruces, but it's not quite like them. It's a little bit citrusy too. It's not too strong and very pleasant.
 

Packaging: The jar contains 60ml of product. It is feels sturdy and it looks pretty cute next to my western facial creams. I like the little curve detail in the cap. Only con is that the jar is quite deep, so you need a spatula to get the product easily out. Too bad, that this doesn't include one. My favorite color is orange so I like the color of this very much.

My Experience: I have been using this now for about one and a half months after I wash my face and my skin is not so dry as it used to be. This time of a year, my skin normally gets really dry due the cold weather, but now it's totally normal. It doesn't make my combination skin oilier. This cream moisturizes well and my skin feels moist the next day too. 

The Summary: This cream works for me perfectly. It really moisturizes well and I can see and feel the effect! I would and probably will repurchase.

Rating:  5/5


Etude House Collagen Moistfull First Essence

Description: Formulated with 90% of hydrolyzed Marine Collagen, this serum absorbs quickly into skin to provide instant hydrating and firming relief.

How to use:
Apply morning and evening after cleansing, prior to Facial Freshener. Pat to finish.
 

Consistensy: The products is gel-like, watery and pretty runny. This too is easy to spread and a little goes a long way with this too.

Smell: It's pretty much same as the Collagen Moistfull Cream.
 

Packaging: The bottle contains 20ml. And umm... I don't have much to say about this. The color is awesome hehe.

My Experience:Before I used this, I had to google how to use an essence. The instructions were a bit poor on the package... Anyways! This moisturizes a little and I'm still not sure what this is supposed to do exactly. It absorbs quickly into my face and it leaves a nice base for the cream and makes it even a little more easier to spread, but thats all.

The Summary: This was a nice introduction to the essences for me, but I don't get the whole idea of it. I wouldn't purchase a full-size product, but I won't run away screaming if this comes with my next Moistfull Collagen Cream.

Rating:  3/5


eBay seller 

I bought this from eBay seller named worldmarket201010. The shipping was quite fast, it took only two weeks to arrive. The product was wrapped in bubblewrap and it was securely packaged. I think the item is authentic. I got three samples with it: SKIN79 Super+ BB cream (Hot Pink), Tony Moly Luminous Pure Aura CC-cream & Etude House Nymph Aura Volumer. (I'm pretty excited about the last two btw, I have wanted to try these for a while!) Based on this purchase, I recommend!

(Not so) Recent finds

Sorry for this small hiatus, I just lost my interest in everything and I couldn't care less about anything and I didn't do anything. I was pretty boring lol. 

Anyways bought a few things last month that I forgot to blog about. ^^'


Waxed denim jeans from Members.com ! The "brand" is Nly Trend and I paid 16,50€ for these. The limited-time sale in Members.com is already over, but you can find these jeans from Nelly.com in white. Black is apparently out of stock.


graysweat

Gray sweater from Vero Moda ! (case you didn't notice from the tag:D) I paid about 9,95€ for this if I remember correctly. It's very comfy!


I also bought a light brown messenger bag from Seppälä but I'm too lazy to take pictures of it now.

Whoah, what a useless post. :DDD

Kpoptown.com haul !

I made a small order on kpoptown.com a while a go. ^^ The package arrived few weeks ago, but I was too lazy to make a post, until now. So yeah, the shipping was pretty fast, took maybe a week or so for the package to arrive. My goods were very safely packaged and every product was in their own bubble wrap and there were several layers of it. I totally recommend! :)

I got Look At My Eyes Cafe in BE102 and BE101, Brush Shower Cleaner, Black Charcoal Chin Pack, Green Tea Nose Pack and Ginko Lip Area Patch from Etude House. Plus a sheet mask from The Face Shop which is called Real Nature Mask Sheet Pomegranate! Whoah, Korean cosmetics have really silly and long names!:D

So I haven't tried all of these, but I'll share my thoughts about the ones I have tried! First is the Look At My Eyes Cafe eye shadows from Etude House.

A little praise to Etude House: I think every single time when I use/try a product from Etude House I'm surprised by the quality. Etude House is not a pricey "brand" at all and you could think that their products aren't amazing, just something that you can work with, but seriously the price-quality relationship is great! Not one of their product has been as shitty as some supermarket brands here in Finland!

Now back to the eye shadows! They are pigmented enough, you don't get the perfect covering color at the first stroke but they're very buildable. They last pretty long and the finish is matte and my lids look smooth and somehow silky. I paid 2.23 € a piece so they're not bad at all !

Next up is The Face Shops Real Nature Mask Sheet Pomegranate. First sheet mask and product from the Face shop I have ever used. Before I used this mask my cheeks and nose were very dry and my face was kind of dull looking. The mask felt really refreshing on my face and it really "provided moisturized radiance" to my skin. However the sheet thing didn't fit my face at all. It was too wide, the mouth area was wierd and on next to my nose were these wierd holes, leaving small part of my cheeks non-covered. It might be that my application technique sucked butt and I did it wrong, but it was damn hard to try to move it on my face when it had sort of "taken it's place". Plus to that it did not stick to the non flat parts of my face.
Even though the sheet didn't fit, I would repurchase 'cos of the greatly working stuff on it. ^^

I also bought B.A.P's newest mini album One Shot with my boyfriend. He paid half of it's price and I paid the other half. ^^ The white random thing on the right in the picture is a folded poster! I haven't dared to open it yet. ^^ The album is really worth its price and I like every song on it a lot!
