I will be your Princess! (W2BEAUTY REVIEW!)

So as some of you may know, I am a sucker for SHINee. I love my shining stars a lot. So when I found this page named W2Beauty, and saw they were selling the SHINee and Etude House collabo "Minime- Be my princess" for cheap I decided I should totally give it a go.

So my packaging came in the mail today, and I'm more than satisfacted.


On the 10th I made my order and I paid right away (in this page you pay right away). After asking the owner of the webpage, Alice, if I did something wrongly (I tend to get very worried of this things, I always overthink and end up thinking I did my payment wrong or ordered the incorrect thing) in the 15th I received two messages or her kindly telling me that I did order the right thing and that my packaging had been shipped (She was super kind to me, and I know I can be very annoying as a customer). My packaging arrived today, on the 23th.


OK, so the review!:

Prize: 5/5. This page is very cheap to buy from, somehow it's cheaper than other pages that sell korean cosmetics, it has a discount-bonus system, if you are a registered user from the page you get more discounts, you have sale discounts... Also, non-tracked shipping is free. You can also pay for tracked shipping (whih is pretty cheap) or EMS shipping (faster but a lot more expensive). They also send you a lot of samples.
It is even cheaper because the packaging was marked as a gift, which makes the shipping cheaper and so it won't get stuck in customs.

Shipping: 3/5. I ordered it on the 10th and my order was shipped on the 15th, which is pretty fast if we think that Alice was updating the page and sending other orders. It arrived here on the 23th which is OK. I loved the detail of marking the packaging as a gift, but I'm only giving a 4/5 on shipping this time because I paid for tracked shipping (which is very cheap) but I never received my tracked number, and that's bad for me, being the super scared customer I am. I guess she just forgot, it's not a big mistake. If you aren't as scared as me, you can order non-tracked shipping, which is FREE.


Customer service: 5/5. She took her time to answer my worried messages, she sent the packaging fast, she marked it down as a gift... Also, my order came in a precious Etude House box, with a lot of bubble paper so anything would get damaged, and with a LOT of samples. And I mean, A LOT. European stores don't give you this much samples in the whole time you keep ordering from them. Also, she send a lovely handwritten note thanking my order.

Overall experience: 4.5/5. Everything went nice and smoothly, and the only bad thing was that little mistake. I'm definitely ordering again from her and reccomending this to everyone who has a thing for korean cosmetics.

And now, the photos!



I'm going to do a review on the produts that were ordered, so stay tuned!

And then I became a sailor senshi! (KUMACRAFTS REVIEW)

Aaaaaai~goooo! How are you my darling lovelies~ I haven't posted in a while~ but I am posting now so it doesn't matter isn't it~
I am happily posting a Kumacrafts review, as I ordered the Crystal Star / R Compact so I could fulfill my dreams of becoming a pretty sailor-suited soldier!
So so so let's go!
 
The necklace in its envelope! It is so pretty that I haven't discarded it, instead I put my necklace inside it and use it as a decoration~

Necklace being worn! (Yep. That is a Metallica t-shirt. I AM WEIRD AND I CONFUSE PEOPLE)

               The things that came in the packet. A business card, a discount card and the necklace packaging.


Purchase / Communication: 5/5. They made things extremely easy, even if I was a bit scared of making mistakes because it was my first time using Paypal to buy from the Internet. Both Paypal and Kumacrafts sent me a message confirming my payment, and they sent me one too when the necklace was shipped specifying everything. I wasn't provided a tracking number as I choosed the cheapest shipping option, so it's OK. Everything was very nice.

Shipping: Over 9000/5. I purchased the necklace on the 9th, and my order got shipped on the 13th because they had so packets to send. I was told I should expect to receive my order between 7 and 21 days after the shipping... BUT THE MORNING OF THE 18TH IT WAS ALREADY HERE! OMG I COULDN'T BELIEVE IT, IT WAS SO FAST! So this was very very nice!

Packaging: 5/5. It came very nicely packaged, in two rows of bubble paper and then in a plastic "envelope", so it wouldn't suffer any damage.

Necklace: 4/5. It is extremely pretty, but it's a bit different from what I expected. I expected it to be a bit bigger, I expected the back of the necklace to be gold-coloured too, and also I might change the chain because it is a bit difficult not to catch my hair with it. Also, it doesn't work, I have sreamed "Moon crystal power, make-up~!" about a hundred of times and I still look the same! I love it anyways.


Overall experience: 5/5! Everything was so nice and dandy, the necklace it's so pretty I wanna wear it everyday, it came so fast, I have a 15% discount if I order again... I will definitely order from this shop again!

I was going to do an unboxing, but... I was so excited I ripped the envelope appart as soon I saw it... So anyways...


See you soon, my dears!

XOXO
