GMARKET HAUL ^^

Check out my video above guys~
It's an older video I filmed but I just realized I never blog posted it. hehe Woops

It's a review/haul on the purchases that I made on GMARKET.co.kr
This site is similar to amazon.com but all KOREAN :)
You can purchase pretty much anything all imported from Korea and other asian countries along with some products from the states.
I love the jewelry selection they have. All the pretty accessories that I can't find here.. they have em!

This is the site where I purchased my SKIN79 (hot pink) BB CREAM. It was about $10.00 usd or even less. Real CHEAP right? I also got some earrings and a purse and other goodies!

Only sucky part is that the shipping is pretty HIGH. Mainly b/c it is international shipping and also shipped EMS (express mail service)
You do receive it SUPER FAST though. I think mine came in like a week or so.
I don't have all the details on the shipping b/c my friend received the order this time. Honestly, If you order enough items.. the shipping is quite worth it. :)

Alot of people ask me, is there an english version?!? I can't read anything on here!
Yes, if you go up on the far right corner... You will see a tab where it says ENGLISH. It will translate MOST texts in English to help you shop a lil easier hehe

CHECK IT OUT HERE (GMARKET)

You'll be able to find accessories to bags to clothing to cosmetics and more~
I will be making another order pretty soon and doing another video on it.
so stay tuned and please subscribe to my Youtube Channel if you haven't already.

Love,

Julie P.

I am so in love with this palette. Mine was purchased @ www.ulta.com stores. You can also find them on www.tartecosmetics.com and www.sephora.com as well.
It comes with 8 metallics/8 matte shadows. They are truly amazing and super pigmented! Honestly, I didn't bother about the bottom row of deluxe samples that were included in the kit. The shadow colors and quality blew my mind. This would be a great holiday gift for any makeup fanatics out there!

ICE BERG & FAUX FUR anyone?

CHANEL's FALL 2010 collection SHOW~

What you see is REAL. ICEBERG. YES~ imported directly from SWEDEN!

Karl Lagerfeld came close with the 265-ton iceberg he had imported from the northern reaches of Sweden to the Grand Palais. It was about (-4ºC) indoors to keep the ICEBERG from melting. Imagine how freezing it was !!! Thirty-five ice sculptors brought in from around the world took six days to carve the snow/ice or snice.
The models walking down the runway in their fall collection w/ faux fur outfits and boots... the Chanel bouclé tweed.. and more..

Only in the WORLD OF CHANEL will you see a real iceberg int he middle of the runway. FABULOUS!!!


Check out the Fashion show runway pt 1

ORAC's NUDE SCENE COLLECTION ( ULTA EXCLUSIVE )

I purchased this set on ulta.com along with some other goodies just weeks ago. I can't explain how much I am SO IN LOVEEEEE with this kit! It's worth every penny.
at $25 for the whole set it's a steal!! $95 value.
including two shadows ( Au naturel, unveiled )
blush ( rose )
couture shine liquid lipstick ( trend setter )
fan brush
silver wristlet clutch

btw: the shadows, blush and lipgloss are all FULL SIZE products as well.

For those who aren't familar or tried LORAC product before. They can be mainly found at SEPHORA's and ULTA stores. I love every product in their line. Shadows are super creamy and pigmented. Blush is matte and easy to blend.
I love the metallic chain clutch it comes with. I actually wore it on a night for a friends birthday and i got so much compliments!
You get so much all for $25.00 and it's a great natural tone color kit. I believe anyone would love gorgeous in this color.

Right now ulta has a bonus free gift when you purchase this set online. :)

So tell me... have you tried LORAC and if so, what are your thoughts on it? :)

Chanel Summer 2010 Makeup collection

I know... I know... It's kind of LATE to be posting this. hehe esp now that the FALL 2010 collection is out.. but I just loveddddd this collection so much I wanted to share with you guys anyways. :)

Thanks to my fabulous sister!!! (love you so much) I got the rouge allure in "SUPER" and the gloss fluo in " LASER & POP ". These items, as you may know.. are limited edition and are completely SOLD OUT everywhere ( that I know of ). So hard to find and I got to have a lil piece of it. YAY~ Only sad part was not getting my HANDS on the nail varnishes. I really love riviera & nouvelle vague. :(
So the dupe for nouvelle vague is " china glaze's - for audrey ". That's what I am hunting down for next. Close enough :)

I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE AND LOVEEEE~ rouge allure SUPER. It is so creamy and the color is so brilliantly beautiful. First I was really scared to try such a bold and bright hot pink but I am definitely getting used to these bright colored lips nowdays.

I am trying to gather a look with that lip colour for my upcoming birthday event next weekend. If you have any suggestions... feel free to comment and let me know! :)

DIORskin Nude sculpting powder :)

*My newest addition to the collection~ DiorSkin Nude sculpting powder spf 10.
Got this from Sephora's and was debating for so long.. should I ? Should I not? I really liked the finish touch of this powder. It was very smooth and flawless. It has a highlight, contour and powder color all in one. Which I found pretty cool! Something I wanted to carry around and use for touch ups on the go. It won't give you that cakey look. I still haven't used mine yet but I am so excited to any day now. I will probably add this to one of my favs reviews on YT soon.

Sorry for the delay in everything... I was sick again after that one week due to having allergic reaction on my skin. I am finally recovering and skin is back to normal. whew!!! Month of June went by quickly for me.. half the month I was ill. :(
My next video will be June favs. I can't wait!

so cute.. I love tokidoki!

Look at this pillow case covers. It's funny because I just realized I totally forgot where I got this pic from. I'm thinking one of those online private sale sites ( rue lala or ideeli or hautelook ) but anyways.. How cute is that! I love those two milk and latte. Didn't end up buying it because I had to be realistic.. that does NOT match my bedding decor haha I am not into cutesy decor at all ( anymore that is ) hehe I'd get them for my kids though. I LOVE TOKIDOKI STUFF! super cute!

**btw: I am still extremely lagging with my blogs and YT vid's due to my computer having issues a week ago and now I am sick with allergies/cold ( still can't figure out which one lols ) so it's like misery for me lately. Hopefully by the end of this week I'll be fully recovered and ready to go. I have so much I want to share with everyone! Till then, TA TA~

I got to do everything else and just checked little things through my ipod. I'm trying to get my sound back so I can film another review soon! So I will see you sooner than later. bye bye ;)
