a gmarket mini-haul

Back in my teens, I got my first credit card and the rest was history. Gmarket was one of the first gateways to my online shopping obsession (and kpop collection at the time). Recently, I re-discovered gmarket to refresh some of my make-up essentials. For everyday use, my modest collections consists of estee lauder and clinique but I find western make-up can be pretty harsh despite being targeted towards the asian market (ie. clinique) which is why I prefer asian brands.

Purchased below:



  • Etude House Play nail polish - refreshing my nudes and one vibrant coral for the springtime. 
  • Etude House Maple Road eyeshadow palette
  • Etude House Play 101 (contour) stick
  • Rom&nd Zero Velvet Tint in Burnt Heart 



First of all, the packing on everything is so pretty. I'm surprised how durable everything felt. 

I have been meaning to get another small eyeshadow palette to add more color because after downsizing my stuff, I threw out all my palettes except a few single pans from mac and bobbi brown and they all happen to be nude colors or simmers. I've never been a fan of lip products because I feel like I end up looking like a clown or it makes my lips look thinner but I'm actually excited for my first lip tint. The texture is quite unique. It almost feels like you're gliding on chalk powder and it's very smooth. The shade perfectly matches and accentuates my natural lip color.

I wanna say this will be my last make-up haul for a while but I kind of want to try more lip tints from different brands heh
