I finally hit up TheFaceShop that opened recently in Hawaii. While it's a small store, it's incredibly well organized and amazing. I know I made that whole post on how education is expensive and how I have to save money...but, omg, my obsession with nail polish and makeup knows no bounds. I've already given in and bought the complete essie Dive Bar collection off eBay (a post will follow once I get the order in)and three CG nail polishes so I wasn't too keen on spending a lot of money. ...but it was so tempting.

I ended up buying two items, the Herb Day Lemon Cleansing Foam and Lovely ME:EX Make-Up Base in violet...which cost me a total of $10.47! They were $5 each and completely worth it (so far) in my opinion. Like a true Korean beauty shop, they threw in some free samples. I'll definitely be going back for the Strawberry Smoothie Mask Pack I wrote about in the last post which retails for $14.

Also, I went through their offering of nail polishes ($8 each) and came across this beauty. It's a black based polish that flashes all the colors of the rainbow--so gorgeous! Since I couldn't justify buying it after purchasing the China Glaze polishes below...I'll be going back for it...or heavily bidding for it on eBay (should it be cheaper).

Since today was also a hair cut day (which means driving all the way out to Aiea), I usually go through their China Glaze collection. Now, I went in for neons but left with none (thinking I'll buy some from the CG summer neon collection coming out soon) but did leave with two glitters.

Skyscraper is from the Fall 2011 Metro collection while Atlantis was released in 2009 as part of the Specialty Collection. Skyscraper is a more muted blue packed with silver microglitter while Atlantis is a teal packed with holographic microglitter. I'm definitely excited to wear these! I know I could find these cheaper on eBay, but I do feel the need to support the salon since I go there so often. I discovered they also sell Color Club and some Nubar (it's very very limited though). I was also tempted to buy OPI Ink (I remember Janelle has this and it's gorgeous), but put it back for a later date. I'm still working on that polish wish list...and it just keeps getting longer!

It's no secret that I'm a huge fan of Korean cosmetics...and, sadly, a lot of them are difficult for those outside of Korean to obtain. Sellers on ebay only sell a limited amount of the entirety of a brand's line, but I'm always hesitant to buy since there isn't the safeguard of being able to test these products. Also, the markup on some of these makes me cry. Being able to read Korean made me realize that some sellers charge double the Korean price! However, I still have made a list of the products I'd like to test. I'm only covering my top four favorite brands--SkinFood, Etude House, TheFaceShop, and Holika Holika.
