So..... Innisfree went on sale last week I guess, I went crazy O_O
Innisfree is one of Korean brand that I talked a lot here and I'm sure some of you might be familiar.
Again, Innisfree is one of the Amore Pacific brand, its also covers Etude House and Aritaum and yada yada. Look up wikipedia for more brands under Amore Pacific.
Recently (No. Been a long time actually) Innisfree comes up with their Spring collection and their focus is on their new formulated creamy tint lipsticks. I believe they have a total of 10 shades (both glosses or tint, and lipsticks) and the colors are really vibrant and vivid, only 2 of them are more neutral. Which is somewhat unnatural because we know Korean make up concept is natural and sweet and all that stuff.
But following the 2013 SS trend colors, they have bright fuschia pink, orange-y red, red pink and etc etc so it's kinda new.
I bought the neutral-est color out of the, ehem, 2, this is the #6 발그레 살구꽃 and no don't ask me to translate that. The color is just a nude pink coral shade and it is creamy (in a good way). It's easy to apply and even though the 'bullet' looks like it's matte but it's actually not that matte but I won't say it's glossy as well.
I think for a lipstick it's last ok and it's been my go to lipstick I bring this all the time.
I didn't buy the gloss but you can totally compare it with L'oreal Caresse Lip gloss. They have the same applier and consistency, and probably the same concept. But I could say that the innisfree's is more tinted and the neutrals actually come a bit creamy so it could show up in your lips better than L'oreal's. I might not buy the gloss because I have 4 of the L'oreal Caresse and I don't know what to do with them lol.
But one thing that make them different from other nail polishes, that it dries so fast! Especially the top part it just harden like in seconds. I might be over-reacting but I'm kinda suck at waiting for a polish to dry. The top part seems to always either scratched or pulled off and stuff like that so I'm really looking polish like this.
The not-so-good part is, the price was (compared to other Korean brand's nail polish) expensive. It's KRW 8.000 and they only have 5 color + 1 base and + 1 top coat. Look forward for more colors! <3
The next product is mineral shadow in shade #5. The reason why I chose this quad is because it's the only quad that have MATTE shadows! Ugh. After I got into makeup and stuff, I began to realized how Asian countries LOVE bling-bling and sparkly and glittery eye shadows more than matte, cream more that powder, highlight more than bronzer!
As my face is more to the oily side, I prefer matte and clean look so bling-bling eyeshadow is just a no. And finding a eyeshadow quad with a atleast one matte shadow is definitely a hard task. I'm quite happy with the product and the color payoff is actually good. The colors tone are more to the warmer tone and the bronze color actually matches my hair color. I don't actually like the idea of matching my shadow with my hair color so......yeah.
Last thing is my innisfree (duh) Mineral Stick Concealer in #2 Natural Beige! It's creamy, easy to apply and it's cheap! I think it's about KRW 8.000 (same price as the nail polish). Stays ok and the color match my skin good! Nothing to complain really.
I got all the prices 30% off and I only paid for KRW 30.100 for all this items! (+ a comb, but I forgot to take the picture) Just a reminder if you bought cosmetic in Korea on sale, usually they don't give out samples like they usually did.
OH and one thing I wanna share. I've been OBSESSED with this song
I was always so skeptical about vocaloid. But, sometimes karma'll bite you, in a nice way. ha. I LIKE IT.

Hihi (: I read your banila co and innisfree hauls & find them very useful! Now I find myself getting very interesting in the primer, primer powder and the bb creams (: my hangul is lacking in many ways, I wonder if you can help to translate the description of capsule washoff packs for innisfree? perhaps you could translate those info that you think its necessary for me to take notice of? (:
