15 Random Facts

 15 Random Facts Meme gotten from QueerPinkFish.  I think she is one of the cutest bloggers ever, though I don't know if I've actually talked to her! >.< I'm super shy about commenting. I don't have any new products to review just quite yet, since I want to make a mass post of my sheet masks, so I thought this would be a nice filler!


#1 What's a nickname that only your family calls you?
 Actually, my family is the only one that doesn't call me by a nickname. Everyone else in my life normally calls me Jihyo, Hilz, Hilly, etc. but my mum and dad always call me Hilary.

#2 What's a weird habit of yours?
 I roll my lips up. It sometimes looks like I am thinking I guess, or just making a funny face. I have done it for a long time though >.<
#3 Do you have any weird phobias? 
 Butterflies and moths! They creep me out so much! The other day I went out to get the mail and I had to go through the garage because there was a butterfly right outside the front door.
#4 What's a song you secretly love to blast and belt out when you are alone?
 재미없어/Ain't No Fun by Big Bang. I am trying to learn the song and it just makes me feel good about my ex and I breaking up last year.
#5 What is your biggest pet peeves?
 When people use the word "gay" to mean stupid, and things like that. I also correct my friends speech sometimes, though my own English grammar has been getting strange lately the more I study Korean.

 I rock back and forth or side to side.
#7 What side of the bed do you sleep on?
 Either the left side or the middle, depending on the weather and if I am sharing my bed or not.
#8 What was your first stuffed animal and it's name?
 It was this patchwork panda looking thing, and I never named it. :( I think I still have it in a box under my bed though. ^^

 I don't normally get Starbucks unless my manager at work orders it, but when she does, I get the Iced Tazo Passion tea. I am not a huge coffee drinker anymore.
#10 What's the beauty rule you preach but never actually practice?
 Drinking plenty of water and making sure to cleanse/tone/moisturize every night and morning. I only cleanse, tone, and moisturize in the morning when I also wash my hair in the mornings (every other day) and I only drink about 2-4 cups of water a week >.>

#14 What's a phrase or exclamation you always say?
 Wooo! I either say it sarcastically or excitedly, depending on the situation, but it tends to be my response to most stories.
#15 Time to sleep - What are you ACTUALLY wearing? 
A pair of shorts or underwear, sometimes a camisole. This also depends on if I am sharing my bed or not. I sleep with like, 3-5 blankets though!

Etude House Dear My Blooming Lip (BE104 and OR205)

Cosmetic Love is currently having a promotion where you buy two or more Etude House Dear My Blooming lipsticks, and you get a free Kiss Note notebook. The order also came with a Etude House SHINee poster.

I've seen mixed reviews about the lipsticks, but in the end I had to buy two! Picking only two colours when there are 24 available is hard, let me tell you! I narrowed it down to 8 that I liked, and my friends helped me pick out the two. I ended up with BE104 and I was talked into trying OR205 by my coworkers. OR205 has a few reviews out, but I have yet to see one for BE104, so this was a complete surprise for me!

I just applied for a new job today and I start orientation on Monday! Wow o.o That was quick. Anyways, it is at a factory and it will be full time! I am already working at a clothing store part time, but I need money. xD The only downside about this job is that the factory is a sterile environment and makeup and nail polish is not allowed to be worn. Due to this fact, I am actually going to hold off buying nail polish and makeup for a bit and focus a bit more on skincare. I really want to try some sleeping masks and some more sheet masks and with both jobs plus dating, they are really going to be pushed to the test.

I just purchased a 15ml tube of ElishaCoy's Always Triple and Essie's No Place Like Chrome is on my wish list! I have been looking for a pretty chrome for a while and I hope to see some reviews on it when it releases! I'm also thinking of getting Innisfree's #81 nail polish, a full set of Nesura Charcoal nose strips, and trying to find a good concealer and setting powder for my face. I also have my eye on Urban Decay's Roller Girl palette and Holika Holika's Honey Sleeping Mask.

Etude House Shini Star Lip Balms (3 types)

Hello everyone! It's been a while since my last post because I have had a cold and didn't really want to take any pictures. Before that though, I posted that I had ordered a few things and Etude House's Shini Star lip balms were part of that. These lip balms are pretty well known for the fact that the kpop group SHINee's signatures are at the bottom of the containers when you are done. I actually didn't know about the signatures until after I had ordered the first one... and ended up buying two more. I'm not a huge fan of the group, but I do like a few of the guys and I also love lip balm since I have super dry lips.

Holika Holika Eyelash #1

Hello everyone! I am back with another review and this time it is for one of my favorite items: eyelashes! I have extremely short, sparse, and just flat out wonky natural eyelashes so I wear falsies pretty much on a daily basis. I normally wear Ardell Babies but my recent pair finally got to the point of needing replacement, so I decided to broaden my horizons a bit. The Holika Holika eyelashes have been on my wishlist since I found Pretty and Cute so I finally caved and bought Holika Holika Eyelashes style 1.

Fun fact: Dress Room lotion from Etude House

At work we tried the sample of Dress Room lotion from Etude House that I got and I am 90% sure it smells exactly like Love Spell from Victoria's Secret. I don't have any LS left to compare it to, but we all have smelled both products and agree.
Just in case anyone was curious about the scent.

Etude House Follow Me Lip Tint

I have to admit, the item I was most excited about from my Cosmetic Love order was Etude House's Follow Me lip tint. I loved both shades but ever since I saw Pink Follower, I knew it needed to be in my life! And for more than the fact that I have a lady boner for CL. ♥

Cosmetic Love Haul #1 & A-Poly Haul #1

First purchase from Amazon seller A-Poly and it went very well! I actually just bought the two Etude House Shini Star lip balms (Key/Fashion Fruit & Taemin/Guava) and all the other were the samples they included!


I placed my first purchase from Cosmetic Love after my A-Poly haul to get another Etude House Shini Star lip balm (Onew/Peach) and Etude House's Follow Me lip tint. The nose strip was a sample.

ElishaCoy: Always Triple BB Cream Review

Well, my week of Skin79 Super BB (Hot Pink) has been over and despite the fact I really liked it, I only ordered more samples instead of the whole tube. I want to find one with better coverage before I purchase an entire bottle, so that brings us to the next BB cream by ElishaCoy.
