My Laneige Collection & Giveaway to Enter!

The brand that I own the most beauty / make up products of has to be hands down, Laneige. You guys might be able to tell already if you have subscribed me for a while. These products belong to me and my mom, I really don't use some of them anymore (ie the black powder compact and mini lip palette, but I don't seem to be able to throw them away) I have been using their products since 8 years ago when my mom brought back a set of their skincare line from Hong Kong. After that, I just kept buying, not because I absolutely love their products, but from habit and convenience (and their cute packaging). I can't help but visit their stores whenever I go to Hong Kong - there's a store at my local Hong Kong mall, I'm always amazed at how pretty the store looks whenever I walk by -_- And once every year around where I live in Toronto, there's a cosmetic sales for brands such as Laneige, Sulwhasoo, and Iope. And you know me and cosmetics sales, it's hard to not purchase anything when you go to one :S



I like their skincare products the most - they are quite hydrating, and they don't break me out. Let me know if you want me to review any of the above products.



1 Designing Eyeshadow in 701 - quite chalky, definitely need an eye primer for this
2 Designing Eyeshadow in 40 - better than the other eyeshadow, but not the best
3 Multi Glam Blusher in 20 - my favourite blusher in the winter, as you can see, I've hit pan already :(
4 Snow Crystal Blusher in 03 brown gradation - hate it - very difficult to use and blend, I don't recommend this at all
5 Sliding Pact in Natural No.2 - My old press powder until I messed it up with some liquid foundation... so I went and bought the new one (see number 6)
6 Sliding Pact Snow UV Crystal in 2 Bright Skin Tone - I use this on a daily basis, love it :D
7 Lipstick in 702 - This is actually my mom's. I'm not sure how much she likes it, but it's almost used up! She's allergic to most lipsticks out there, so I guess this one worked out for her.

I don't own too many of their make up products, most of the above picture are not available anymore No. 4 and 6. I'm not a big fan of their make up line.

So what's your favourite Laneige product? And is there a cosmetic / skincare brand that you just keep returning to buy out of habit?
I know a lot of ppl are addicted to MAC!! :P


While I'm at the topic of Korean make up, I want to mention Elli Duvolle's I have Seoul Makeup Giveaway!!!



She's giving out up to 3 items and up to $60 worth of Korean brand makeup / skincare products of your choice! I'm sooooo excited, and crossing my fingers for this :D
