REVIEW: Daiso Charcoal Mask

Hello all, FINALLY I HAVE FOUND THIS PRODUCT BEING OFFERED AT MY LOCAL DAISO. i immediately snagged 2 bottles. i wanted to buy more..but these things are quite time consuming so 2 bottles for now :) FEATURE : formulated with the natural ingredients from Oak trees, it removes oils and all dirt and deeply clean the pore,  leaving your skin cleaner with less visible pores.  HOW TO USE : after cleansing your face, evenly apply on the nose area and let it dry for 10-15 min. if completely dried out, peel it off starting at the bottom, pulling toward the top.  -do not use more than twice per week.  -for sensitive skin, apply facial essence before using, and slowly peel it off starting at the top toward the bottom.  Made in Korea Okay so I tried it on my nose instead of my whole face because I did not want to scare away my family members and because it was too time consuming.  this smells rather pleasant, and it smells pretty much the same as the other Daiso charcoa

Minion Craze: Mcdonalds Happy Meal Toys (CONT.)

Hello! Just thought I'd update on my minion hunt. I decided to go on with the Minion collecting after all and here is what I have so far! Got 2 more so far! Both evil minions :)  The one on the far left also makes a noise when you shake it (like Tim giggling on the far right) BUT, it sounds a LOT better than Tim giggling lol. Also a lot easier to shake as well compared to Tim giggling, that is, unless I have a malfunctioning Tim giggling minion :O  The other evil minion has a green party horn in his mouth and when you blow the straw-like hole on his back, he will make a whistle sound. the part horn also moves out when you blow on it. quite cute! :D  I didn't think I was going to buy the evil minions but I did anyways haha.  I also found out that my pricing on the previous post is incorrect. 2 local Mcdonalds I have been to sell the Minions for as low as $1.19 with tax. Quite cheap imo.  With about 2 weeks left, I will be on the lookout and hopefully I w

REVIEW: Daiso nose peels (2 kinds)

Hello again! This is probably my last review for the day. Taking a look at the picture below, after i finish writing the reviews for these 2 nose peels, i only have 2 more items to review. YAY! good thing because i am finally finishing off my list but also a bad thing because i probably wont have anything else to review after :/ but we'll see! i shall come up with something to review!  Okay, i shall start off with this nose peel:  the bottle from front to back is in japanese, except for made in Taiwan on the bottom, so if anyone can read these and help translate, much help would be appreciated. ^_^  the back does have some chinese and i can only make out:  -how to use: after cleaning your nose with a cleanser, and yeah...LOL the rest is kind of unreadable for me.  it did come wrapped in those see thru wraps along with some english but i trashed it ages ago -.- but for sure it is a peeling mask for your nose. I purchased this in Canada for $2 CAD, haven't

REVIEWS: Panda Pocky/Green Tea Kit Kat/Pepero Almond and Chocolate

Alright, time for something different today! I will be reviewing FOOD. well mostly snacks haha. I stumbled across Panda Pocky the other day at my local Mitsuwa. I haven't seen it anywhere else before so i decided to give it a try. Quite pricey imo. it costs $2 a box lol.  The packaging is really cute tho >3< pics of pandas on it :D  Taste-wise, i quite liked it. The pocky stick is chocolate flavored and it is layered with white chocolate and chocolate cookie crumbs. It's a bit too sweet for my taste buds though. I think i still prefer strawberry pocky over it though XDD  Next up is Green Tea Kit kat! Also purchased at my local Mitsuwa Market. This is freaking pricey. 12 MINI BARS for $5.49 lol... i don't have a picture of it, but one pack is like 1 stick of kit kat cut in half, so yes quite pricey lol. they are individually packed though.  i purchased this because i really want to try all the flavored kit kats they have in japan lol! I have

The Minion Craze: Mcdonald's Happy Meal Toys

Hello all! Have you joined in with the Minion craze lately?! When i found out that minions were being offered at mcdonalds, i immediately searched up what the toys looked like. I especially fell in love with Dave the banana babbler, and i went to around 5 Mcdonalds in order to get him...  Honestly, they are really cute but i only like some. I dont know if i will try to get the other minions because it is quite tiring... I'm quite satisfied after getting Dave the Banana Babbler. He says 'oh banana' when you press his arm lol. Tim giggling (on the left) was quite a disappointment though. You have to shake him and he makes a noise. Doesn't sound like a minion laugh but his cuteness makes up for it i guess. Lastly, Tom Babbler (right) is cute. he makes an evil laugh when you press on his arm.  Anyways here are some tips to getting these minions or the one you want:  - Every Mcdonalds has different minions. At first i thought every mcdonald sold the same one

REVIEW: Daiso Body Gel: Grapefruit Fragrance

Hello! I will be putting up a lot of posts today, seeing as i am free :)  Today, i will be reviewing a body gel i got from daiso recently.  And YES, it costs $1.50 as well!  INSTRUCTIONS : use this product when you mind dry skin and after taking a bath.  PRECAUTIONS :  -do not use when there are skin affections such as injuries and eczema, or it disagrees with your skin.  -close the lid tightly and keep out of reach of children.  -do not store in the place with an extremely high temperature or in the place exposed to direct sunlight.  -rinse with clean water immediately when it gets into your eyes.  As noted on the side, this product is made in Vietnam. This is what the gel looks like. It reminded me very much of Olay's aquaction, which is why i purchased it in the first place. The smell is true to the description. When you open it, you will smell a really strong grapefruit smell. You will also smell rubbing alcohol lol... It looks a bit like gel f

Aliexpress: reviews and tips continued!

Okay so today I will be writing about another horrible experienced I have yet encountered on Aliexpress. This is the store link:  http://www.aliexpress.com/store/916723  It is called Luckly Store 2012 and the seller is called Lili Chen. Well, you're not so 'luckly' anymore lol. I dont know if people will even order from you anymore -.- The seller had ridiculously low prices AND they had a 90+% of feedback too. I thought wow, seems pretty legit so I decided to place an order. I also sent them a message, asking if they would really ship out the products. To my disappointment i was given this message: She blamed it on a system error lol. I don't know if that's the legit reason or not but lol. But as you can see below, the seller has a 95.7% rating.  What pissed me off even more was that she REQUESTED that I choose the reason of cancellation as either 1. I ordered the wrong products  2. I placed a duplicate order  LOL? its not even my fault and
