Today I am sharing with you my latest Kawaii eBay Finds, the products that I am going to show you were purchased months ago. I haven't been buying from eBay since March this year because majority of the stuff I buy on eBay are Korean and Japanese beauty products and these are surprisingly easy to get my hands on in-stores these days. Also the prices are cheaper to buy in-store than online.
I won't be cancelling my Kawaii eBay Finds series, but I probably will not be writing about it as often as I used to be as I rarely shop on eBay these days. Unless if there is a hard-to-get limited edition collection that is not available in NZ, then I will probably source from eBay, otherwise there is no point of spending more on a product that can be picked up and tested in stores, right?!
Anyway, let's start with my latest Kawaii eBay Finds, this one features some really popular Korean skincare products and majority of these I have used for more than six months ~
All the products shown were purchased from RINISHOP.
ETUDE HOUSE BUBBLE TEA SLEEPING PACK | USD $10.50
When I was first introduced to sleeping mask, I thought it's one of those gel stuff that you apply on your face before bed and you cannot sleep on your side, or else it will smear all over your pillow. I've always had this scary imagination of sleeping masks, so I tried to avoid it as much as I can.
Then Etude House introduced this new product called the Bubble Tea Sleeping Pack back in 2016, everything from its' packaging to its' idea got me really excited. It took me awhile to try this product and when I finally tried it, definitely no regrets.
Etude House Bubble Tea Sleeping Pack is available in three flavours, Strawberry Tea is made for those with dry skin, Black Tea is intended to firm skin and moisturize, Green Tea is best for oily skin, to help with enlarged pores and excessive oil.
Each jar contains a handful of boba that you are suppose to squash and mix with the jelly before applying on your face. The brand suggested that one to two boba at a time.
The texture of the sleeping pack is like a thick moisturizer, it doesn't drip nor move around while you sleep, it doesn't feel sticky or heavy. In the morning, you simply just wash it off with your regular morning cleansing routine.
I have used this sleeping pack three or four times now and I haven't noticed much difference with my pores, but I do like that it makes my skin feels soft and moisturized.
ETUDE HOUSE EXFOLIATING JELLYFISH SILICONE BRUSH | USD $5.60Etude House My Beauty Tool Exfoliating Jellyfish Silicone Brush is designed to massage and deeply cleanse pores, you can easily turn any cleansers into foams by squeezing the cleanser into the bottom of the jellyfish.
I have this in my shower and I have used it a couple of times. Although the jellyfish is squishy and fun, it's really adorable, but just I don't feel like it's that special. The thing kind of hurts as it exfoliates my face, the massage part on top doesn't do much and I feel like there's always leftover cleanser in the jellyfish that you just cannot squeeze out. I left the jellyfish air-dry after every use, but it just doesn't dry completely and it always feels damp.
TONYMOLY TAKO PORE BLACKHEAD SCRUB STICK | USD $8.09
TonyMoly Tako Pore Blackhead Scrub Stick is a black mud balm that claims to effectively removes excess sebum and gently exfoliates pores to pullout blackheads, whiteheads and other skin impurities. The packaging is so adorable!
I have tried this product for two weeks straight and I see no obvious end results, my blackheads are still so obvious and it doesn't improve my problem areas at all. The texture of the balm is very hard and it hurts while rubbing against my nose.
LABIOTTE WINE ANGLE MASCARA | VOLUME FIXER | USD $10Labiotte Wine Angle Mascara is available in two types, Lash Fixer and Volume Fixer.
The Volume Fixer claims to make eyelashes look defined and full with the airy light powder that provides long-lasting curling effect.
Although I know that majority of the mascaras in the market does not work on my super straight eyelashes, I still buy it because of its' super cute wine bottle packaging.
HOly shhhhheeeez. That silicone brush is TOO CUTE!!!!!!!!!!!
