034. G-MARKET, The Face Shop

2:15 PM |

Edit Post

My 2nd G-MARKET order arrived today! Time for picture spam!

ﾟ･:,｡ﾟ･:,｡★ﾟ･:,｡ﾟ･:,｡☆

MUCH smaller box than last time hehe.

A peek inside :)

Layers upon layers of packages! Now onto the actual items.

Cat sweater. It's SOO incredibly soft! I'm just a tad disappointed with the fit.

Once I manage to lose a few pounds I think it'll look much better on me. The band on the bottom is kinda small which is why I think it fits funny. Also the sleeves are a tiny bit short to my liking, but it still fits alright. Not quite as cute as the picture, but I still like it.

♡ Overall: 3.5/5 ♡

Onto the sexiest part of my order :P

BAM!!

I LOOOOOOOOOOOVE THIS SO MUCH! The material is so pretty and soft and silky... <3 I'm definitely buying more from this seller in the future!

♡ Overall: 5/5 ♡

This is actually for my boyfriend, but he doesn't know about it yet. I'm going to have to try REALLY hard not to steal this from him! Maybe I'll buy another one next time like couple shirts :P I hope my boyfriend likes it as much as I do. The material feels a tad thin, like I was afraid I was gonna rip the armpit! :O

♡ Overall: 4.5/5 ♡

These are the earrings I bought for my mom for Christmas. Came in a cute little bag!

I thought it came with gloves or something...

Came with a cute pair of socks... and a lottery ticket?? I think I'll give the socks to my boyfriend's little sister for Christmas. Yeah, because every kid wants clothes for Christmas. :D

They look SO gorgeous in person! I'm really pleased with these. These pictures really do them no justice. They also look a little distorted because of my reflection I think haha.

The diamonds in the middle look so pretty too! I can't believe they only charged 12USD for these... I highly recommend this seller!

♡ Overall: 5/5 ♡

I love my new beanie! I'm wearing it right now haha. I've been wanting one of these for so many years. I'm glad I waited to order it from G-MARKET. It's so warm and cute. :)

Had to put on makeup before taking a picture haha. Anyone have recommendations for dark circles? ^^ It looks a lot lighter in the pictures than it really is. It's so warm and fluffy. Only cost $7, which is a LOT cheaper than any hats I've run across like this... which is only once, in San Francisco Japan Town. I think those were about $15? And honestly, the quality was meh. :P

♡ Overall: 5/5 ♡

These pants are so rad, don't deny! haha. They look high quality and they're very heavy. I definitely recommend this seller too. This order arrived at G-MARKET the fastest, even though there were two items. I believe they came by the very next day! :O My boyfriend still has to try them on, so I'll get back on the fit. So for now...

♡ Overall: 4/5 ♡

The pictures kinda wash out the true color of the jeans. They're a lot darker in real life, but after a little photoshop they look a bit closer. (The original color made them look navy). Each pair was about $20, so definitely money well spent. Just need to make sure we got the right size, since he keeps losing weight! XD

♡ Overall: 4/5 ♡

The mysterious jacket!! I mentioned in my last post about my order that the store's pictures weren't working, so I couldn't get a preview photo of the jacket. My god....

This jacket was heavier than both his jeans combined!! o_o

Very swanky! Reminds me of a British military jacket, I think? It's soooo heavy and thick!

This was the most expensive item, costing around 70USD. My boyfriend was definitely looking forward to this the most! I'll have to update with a picture of him wearing it and his review later. As for my current review, I find it to be of high quality.

♡ Overall: 5/5 ♡

I'll add the seller shops once G-MARKET is done with maintenance!

I finally went to The Face Shop for the first time yesterday. Being me, I'm always self-conscious about going into stores like that. I dunno why, it's really silly, but I just am. Well anyway, my boyfriend told me the night before he wanted some face products for Christmas since he works with open ovens all the time *hint hint*. So I made a trip there, and wow is it pretty! I thought the store would be a lot bigger... but it's still very open and easy to find things. So this is what I got based on the employee's recommendation.

I had already wrapped it up but opened the box to take pictures. It's a line for men specifically with acne problems. The packaging is really nice and the bottles are very heavy.

$18

$12

$18 This is the item she specifically recommended since I asked for a moisturizer. A few weeks after Christmas I'll have to do a review once he's used it for a while.

I also got this as a free gift. I haven't tried using it yet though, anyone else try it?

I was also a little confused about how their free gift deal works... I spent about $50, but this was all I got. Do you need to have some sort of membership to get the "Spend $$$ and get [item] free"? If so, I just wish the girl let me know so I can get free stuff! :D

So that's about it. Earlier I made myself a weird smoothie. Banana, apple, orange juice, ice, frozen pineapple, cinnamon and again, cayenne pepper. I was a little scared to try it, but it was actually pretty good. I guess my new secret ingredient is cayenne pepper! Why not try it for yourself? :)

I also weighed myself earlier, and I'm down to 121 lbs exactly. I guess it's not bad considering I've been kinda cheating, but I am trying to workout in the mornings! Ganbariamasu, Fighting!! ^^
