Trustworthy Shops for Asian Cosmetics Part II

29. January 2014
I talked about RoseRoseShop in “Trustworthy Shops for Asian Cosmetics Part I” and today I will introduce another of my favourite shops to you: W2Beauty!
This shop was newly founded beginning of last year and since then got a lot of popularity. Main reason for this is probably the shop owner Alice. She is very nice and does care about any inquiries and questions made. Also she makes use of social media a lot, and if you follow her on facebook or instagram you’ll see that she’s doing a lot of giveaways and wants us to take part in her cosmetic shopping experiences in the various Korean brand shops.

The online shop has a cute layout and is arranged nicely. If there are any discounts you’ll find them on the starting page. Sometimes she’ll put coupons for a selection of brands, so you can get some discount. W2Beauty offers a free shipping option, but you can also go for registered mail if you want to be on the safe side. My orders I did there were always with free shipping (you only pay for tracking number) and they arrived every time after 2-3 weeks. The prices are higher than on RoseRoseShop, but then again shipping doesn’t depend on weight and thus it can be cheaper for heavy products. She is also generous with samples, depending on how much you spend. If you didn’t buy a lot, she’ll include samples nevertheless. Mostly I got brands or products I didn’t know and the sample selection was different each time.
www.w2beauty.com
I really like W2Beauty‘s Affiliate/Sponsorship Programme. If you have a blog you should check it out. They also have an affiliate program.
So, it might be worth to take a look at this online shop if you do not know it already :)
I hope this post was helpful to you. Please write me your comments!♥ If you like this, I will continue with more posts of this kind.

Trustworthy Shops for Asian Cosmetics Part I or “How I started to get addicted”

15. January 2014
The last year passed so fast, I barely didn’t realize that I was having this blog for almost a year now. It’s funny how you start with something just out of fun, and suddenly you have like a real schedule and you start planning when you will do which review and what information you still need to add to a certain post. I never even imagined that there would be people following my blog and even commenting on stuff, but it seems I was wrong about this and I’m really happy that I was! ♥ Todays post will be the start of several posts I want to do over the next weeks describing the online shops I made good experiences with. I will start off with the very first seller I bought Asian cosmetics from: RoseRoseShop (stand alone online shop) or also known as RubyRuby76 (ebay seller).

I remember how I stumbled over a post about Korean BB creams and how the name of a Korean brand called “Missha” was placed into my head. In that moment I started to look for information about that brand and about BB creams in general and I really wanted to try a BB cream but I didn’t know where to buy it and how safe if would be to order online. Finally, after many thoughts, I had a look at ebay and I discovered Missha’s Perfect Cover BB cream offered my the seller RubyRuby76. I placed my first order for a Korean product, hoping it would arrive safely,and- more important-that I would like this BB cream. What happened then? I loved this BB cream and it is my favourite BB cream since today, despite having tried other BB creams by now. Moreover, I started to get to know more Asian brands and today most of the products I use are from asian brands and I’m completely happy with it.

I used the ebay shop RubyRuby76 several times and I was always happy about a good delivery time and free shipping. And I never had any problems with their packages, neither for custom fees, nor for damaged products and stuff like this. I can recommend to try their ebay shop, especially to those who never bought Asian cosmetics online before.
Eventually they started to create a stand-alone online shop called RoseRoseShop with really reasonable prices and options for wholeseller and ordering in larger quantities. Their layout is easily to navigate and offers you to search either by brand or by category.
The shipping costs are always listed in the check out and are reasonable and calculated by weight. If you like to make bulk orders, the shop is really a nice choice. For single items I prefer the ebay shop, especially since it has free shipping. If you sign in for their newsletter, you’ll get coupon codes for 10% discount, but they will show you a valid coupon code during your check-out as well. From time to time they have various sale events where you can get really good deals on certain brands. If you make an order at RoseRoseShop you have the opportunity to request samples for your order, so you will get freebies, too. You have to go to the Forum section of the shop, write them your order number and ask for samples, that’s all! And everybody loves free samples, I guess XD.
You’ll find another great review – which I discovered by chance just right now on google – about RoseRoseShop on Sample Hime’s blog. Since I love her blog and she is always very honest and straightforward on her opinions you might check this one out as well: http://samplehime.blogspot.de/2014/01/introducing-my-new-sponsor.html
I hope this post was helpful to you. Please write me your comments!♥ If you like this, I will continue with more posts of this kind.

I did both, but normally I dye my hair by myself, because it is cheaper ;)

Sometimes on the same day, sometimes a day before.
