Exploring: Green Tea

So I'm a big fan of tea, but black tea has always been too strong for me. I used to drink strawberry tea when I was a kid, but now I prefer green tea. I drank green tea a little already, but the more Lindy Tsang talked about green tea and how good it was for you, and then Nayoung and other YouTubers and bloggers did as well, I decided I should start religiously drinking my tea~ and it's definitely made a difference so if you're like me and really lazy, then just suck it up and drink your tea because your skin and your body will thank you so much for it!

(Now I'll admit this month I've been slacking off a little...but genuinely my reasoning has been good...

I've been drinking a brand for a while and I decided to swap to a new one after I finished this box...however! I wanted to take some pictures because I was planning this post! So I've been drinking the box pretty slowly because I've been too lazy busy to take photos)

SHINI STAR Lip Balm!

I ordered the SHINI STAR Lip Balm by Etude House in 블링블링J (Bling Bling J - for Jonghyun!) 

It came with my purchases from cosmetic-love and can be found here on their site.

The series has five colours, one for each SHINee member - and I really like orange lip colours, so I decided to order the Jonghyun colour.

Mini Korean Skincare Haul

Part 1: The Items

These products took a little while to come, however they had free shipping so really I didn't care how long it took as long as they arrived safely! I have to say, I was really impressed with this seller and I'm definitely going to be ordering from them again soon because the products I ordered were good and the free shipping and the added free samples from the seller are really appealing and just a nice touch really!

Over the next couple of weeks I'll be uploading reviews of each of the products, I didn't actually order any full products...(the only things I paid for were the eye patch and the lip balm) so I can't comment on the value for money and everything, but Korean products are usually pretty good!

I'll just go through the products I actually received then and how they were received!

From left to right: Etude House's Collagen Eye Patch - one set, so there were two patches, one for each eye - Nesura's Pore Deep Charcoal Strip sample, Skinfood's Royal Honey Hydro Cream, Skinfood's Platinum Grape Cell Toner and finally Etude House x SHINee's SHINI STAR Lip Balm.

I purchased the Collagen Eye Patch and the SHINI STAR Lip Balm.

They were ordered on the 30th June and were dispatched on the 2nd July, so it took a while for it to get dispatched and everything - but hey free shipping who cares? xD - and arrived on the 10th July.

When I received the package (which was TINY, so well packed...I was impressed) I also got a card leading me to their website rather than their eBay site for further purchases...

The website is cheaper than the eBay site, so I did feel slightly ripped off by that...but I did only pay £6.30 for everything so that's fine :D

So thank you Cosmetic-love, and I will be ordering again soon!

(Review posts on each of the items soon)

Look how tiny the box is and it's in good quality as well! :D
