3 Concept Eyes (by STYLENANDA) Lip Lacquer Review

안녕~!

So this is my first product review! 3 Concept Eyes Lip Lacquer (I ordered from EyeCandys.com)
Color: Fever
~Note: The opinions expressed in this post are my opinions, and this post is not sponsored in any way.

Here is the outside of the package/box:

The actual product: {It is in a glass cube}
3CE Lip Lacquer Bottle
{There is a little seal on the bottle, so you can see if it is new or has been used!}
Open bottle and applicator: {The applicator is slanted}

Pictures from 3 Concept Eyes:

Okay so on to the product review:
The lip lacquer is a liquid so it is very vibrant {which I like}! The color is a bright reddish-orange.


 After it dried: (takes about 5-10 minutes to fully dry) - {Ignore my messy hair this was taken in the morning~:P}

Overall review:
The color is very vibrant and pretty. It takes a while to dry so I blend it with a lip-stick and it usually dries faster. Also as far as it's lasting ability, I would say it lasts about 4-5 hours before you need to re-apply.
The color is also is more vibrant outdoors than indoors, but I didn't get a chance to take a picture (so I will edit this post and add one, later!)
I give the 3CE Lip Lacquer in *Fever* a 8/10- I really love this product and I will be ordering different colors also!

I will post a tutorial on this Bright Red Lipstick Look also, using the 3CE Lip Lacquer in *Fever*!:

『Haul/Review』EyeCandy's Haul {STYLENANDA 3 Concept Eyes Makeup}



So I said I would be reviewing Jolse, but I decided to save that for my next post. I recently ordered from EyeCandys.com and here's my review!

~Note: The opinions expressed in this post are my opinions, and this post is not sponsored in any way.

Ordering and Shipping

I ordered three products around December 20th. On Dec. 26, I finally get an email saying my items have shipped. {Okay, great}. But then I got another email the next day saying that 2 of the items I ordered "were out of stock at the time I ordered". {Okay, why wasn't there stock automatically updated. But okay~} So I sent them an email (on the 28th) asking them to provide me a list of the colors that were in stock for those two items.
Then, they send an email back (on the same day) saying "our stock is changing everyday, so please tell us the color you would like". {Okay, seriously, just tell me what you have in stock or what you estimate will be in stock. If I tell you a color, then you check and it isn't in stock wouldn't it have been easier to just tell me what is already in stock?}

So I responded and said I would like a list of all the colors available, again. So they finally send me a list of the available colors. (on the 29th). Then I responded an chose out the available colors and finally on the 1st of January they send a confirmation email that my items "will be shipped out in the next 3 days".

So anyways after that "hassle". I received two packages separately, one with the first item (that was in stock) and the other with my other two items. The first arrived around January 17th and the second arrived two days ago on the 21st.

-Not happy with their shipping and ordering process.
The shipping, however, was free so that is a plus. - They have free worldwide shipping.

Package and Items

So I don't have a picture of the first package, but it was in a black plastic package with bubble wrap inside.
Here is the second package. It's a pink (cute!) bubble wrap envelope.
Contrary to their messy shipping process, the items were very neat and packaged well.


I ordered: (I used a coupon code for the holiday sale, so the total was less than the expected price)
1. 3 Concept Eyes Creamy Waterproof Eyeliner- in *WOW Pink* - $14.99
2. 3CE Lip Lacquer- in *Fever* (originally ordered it in *Backstage*)- $21.90
3. 3CE Face Blush - in *Valentine Pink* (originally ordered it in *Cotton Candy*) - $18.96

They didn't send any samples with either package. :( 
{Which I sort of expected since I spent of $50, and I have ordered from other websites and paid only $20 or bought only one item and still got plenty of samples} 


Eyecandy's Rating: 7/10
I really like that everything was packaged neatly and the free shipping. But, the shipping process and how long it took to arrive was very annoying. Even so, I will probably order from EyeCandy's again because it is so far one of the few online stores to carry 3 Concept Eyes products (and provide free worldwide shipping)! I'll just be sure to email in advance to make sure everything I want is in stock! ^_^~

『Haul/Review』BeautyNet Korea Haul and Review

So this is my first post! I recently bought some Korean Skin Care and Cosmetic products from Beautynetkorea.com and I wanted to share it! {Korean Beauty Haul!}


~Note: The opinions expressed in this post are my opinions, and this post is not sponsored in any way.


Order and Shipping


First, I ordered my items on January 4th (Saturday) and I got an email saying the items were shipped on the 6th (Monday). I received my package this week on {Monday, January 13th} So I would say the shipping was pretty fast! Especially for coming from Seoul to California.

Package and Items

So my package came through USPS, and was in a box small enough to fit in my mailbox.

Everything was bubble wrapped and sealed nicely.
*That little spot on the tape was from me the original tape was sealed.

Here is what I ordered:

1. Innisfree - It's Real Grean Tea Mask- 7pcs ~ $6.25
2. The Face Shop- Real Nature Rice Mask Sheet- 7pcs ~ $6.99
3. Holika Holika - Pig Nose Clear Black Head 3 Step Kit ~ $4.35
4. Holika Holika - Cover and Hiding Stick Concealer ~ $5.68
5. The Face Shop - Real Nature Mask Pomegranate- 3pcs ~ $3.69
6.  Innisfree - Green tea mineral mist 50ml ~$8.59

Shipping was free and you get a member discount if you sign up, so my order was $33.50!

I also got a lot of samples! Yay! ^_^~

Samples:
2- Etude House Shea Butter Nutrifull Cream
2- Etude House Nymph Aura Volumer
2- Etude House Collagen Moistfull Enriched Cream
2- Etude House GoBack (to the best time of your skin) Total Solution

Beautynetkorea.com Rating- 9.5/10
Ordering was easy and lots of sales and discounts were available. I also love that shipping is free! And it ws really fast! All items were packaged very well and lots of samples came with my order! I didn't contact customer service at all, so I can't provide a rating for that. However, my experience with Beautynetkorea was definitely good! I will be ordering again soon! 
{The reason for a 9.5 instead of 10, is because all of the samples are from Etude House, I wish the sample selection was from different cosmetic brands, so I can try out new brands.}

So that's it for my first post! Short and sweet~ Also reviews of the items and samples will be posted soon!

Oh, and my next post will be a Jolse.com Review and Haul! 

안녕! ~ また、ね!
