I'm a mask addict, be it clay, jelly, cream or sheet masks. I just love laying down with a mask on and relaxing at the end of the day. I have an entire drawer dedicated to my masks, that my fellow beauty friends is what I call an obsession. I admit that I own much more than I would ever need, which is why my mother never buys masks for herself!
MIZON is a new Korean brand for me, and when I first spotted their shop on G-market I was drawn to their products and the affordable prices. I also saw that Hope In a Blog has tired a few products from them and this gave me the push I needed to try them out.

Monthly Empties April
Hello, I have been so impressed with how well I have been finishing products (knock on wood), that I have decided to make it a monthly blog post. I will also be adding samples because I have a box full and I also think it's a good idea for a quick mini review.

Empties #1
Hi, today I have an empties post. I have been reading and loving these kind of post lately, so I decided to do that as well. I don't know if I can do a monthly empties post because I just won't have enough products to talk about. But these posts to encourage me to use up products a lot faster. So lets dig in.
Garnier Body Intensive 7 days Hydrating Lotion- 400mL
I have the one in Aloe Vera, its a nice body lotion great for summer. Provides moisture without leaving any stickiness on the skin. Sinks in to the skin very quickly. Does it leave the skin moisturized for 7 whole days. No, it doesn't.
Repurchase? Yes, already have.
Bath & Body Works P.S I Love You Triple Moisture Body Cream- 226g
This is a very thick cream, I really enjoyed using this during the colder months. Despite it being very thick in texture, my dry skin absorbed this very quickly. Towards the end I had to cut it open to use up and to my surprise there was quite a lot of product left. I wasn't really into the fragrance but it wasn't very strong and didn't last a long time.
Repurchase? No, we don't have Bath & Body Works in Australia :(
TonyMoly Floria Whitening Capsule Essence- 50mL
I got this a long time ago and had an on-off relationship with it. While I did love the brightening effect, I think and I'm not sure but when I used this on a daily basis I would get little bumps on my face and mostly forehead. It did not whiten my skin, but it gave a brighter look to it, however that did not last too long either.
Repurchase? No, I have way too many other serums/essences to try out.
Naruko Lupin Anti-Wrinkle Friming Serum- 30mL
I did a review on this here. I really like this serum, every thing from the texture to the smell. While I did not notice any firming effects, I also don't have any wrinkles on my face, yet. A gel like texture that sinks into the skin very fast and evens out the skin.
Repurchase? Yes, if I make another order from Naruko.
Mizon Snail Repair Eye Cream- 20mL
This cream promised a lot, but did not deliver anything. Promising to diminish fine lines and even improve deep wrinkles, and remove dark circles. No, it did nothing for me except provide sufficient moisture without feeling heavy.
Repurchase? No, I still have one that come part of a set, so I might do a review.
Clinique Even Better Skin Tone Corrector- 30mL
I didn't use them up both by myself. One of them belonged to my mother who just could not stand the fragrance and gave it to me, just when I finished my one. While it does state that it's 100% fragrance free, there is a chemical smell to it. I just can't throw it out because of the smell so I forced myself to use it up. I think it did a good job of evening out the skin.
Repurchase? No, I can't stand the smell.
Isa Knox MX-II Platinum Recovery Skin- 100mL
You can read the review here. A quick review its was really nice to use and I will be using the other set next winter, because I just think its too moisturizing during summer and I have dry skin so it better for winter.
Repurchase? No, because I have another set to use.
Isa Knox MX-II Platinum Recovery Emulsion- 100mL
Reviewed here. This is a thick, very thick cream. I'm call it a cream because it was literally a pain is the @$$ to get out of the bottle. They should have thought of adding a pump instead of having me to bang this on my palm very day. While it was so thick, it surprises me of how quick it absorbs and how soft it makes my skin.
Repurchase? No, because I have another set to use.
Sooryehan Boyun Extra Moisturizing Cream- 25mL
I got two of these deluxe sample/travel sized as part of the Sooryehan set that I brought from G-market. A nice moisture that sink into the skin without leaving and residue or shine. It smells very floral, but this goes away very quickly. A great cream with beautiful packing details on the lid and even come with a spatula.
Repurchase? No, because I have another one to use up.
That's all for this post. I will do another empties post when I have enough products.
Love,
Sakura

G-market Haul #3
Hello, I'm so bad I haven't even got about to reviewing/using most of the items from my previous G-market hauls and I just keeping on buying more stuff. I blame G-market so been so addictive, I no longer can go to the site for "just" browsing I end up on the checkout page without even noticing my self anymore.
This what I look like when shopping online.
Now take a look at what I brought.

| The inner boxes. |
First up, MIZON, I have not heard/seen this brand before. I was mostly interested their BB cream. I did make a mistake I wand the Snail BB cream but actually order the snail eye cream. I'm not that mad because Snail cream are a huge hit in Korea right now.

| MIZON |
I brought the Watermax BB Cream, the snail repair eye cream and they had a special for the Sun Block SPF 50 PA+++, buy one get one free. They gave me 3 face sheet masks, a full sized eye cream and a small packet of various samples.

| Holika Holika |
Holika Holika had a great sale, and I managed to just settle with these items, the Daily Garden in green tea, acerora, aloe. The 3 seconds starter in the collagen and also the BB Roller cream. The rest were gifts.

| It's Skin the Prestige line |

| More It's Skin |
I also got two of they Power 10 serums and the Prestige BB cream, another BB cream and they had a two for one sale on the sun screen.
And, last but not least Daal Story. I first heard about this brand on Hope in a Blog, and they said that Daal Story is a sister brand of Skinfood, which explains why it can in a Skinfood box.

| Daal Story |
I only brought one item, just to try out the brand and see if I like it. The serum was quite expensive, but when I got the item I noticed that it was a huge 100mL bottle, so YAY!!.
I love how fast everything arrived and plus this order I received about 5,000 Won back from my total shipping fee. But I don't know how to use it.
Love
