Monday Tea Time with Lady Fox~ Monday Poll and Questions!

Hey everyone, it's been awhile since I did any Monday Tea time. But I felt I should do more of this often, since it's fun to get to know you and let you know more about me outside of cosmetic.

But the main reason I am doing this is not related to the previous way I did Monday Tea Time with Lady Fox. I wanted to take some time, to thank every reader who trusted me and participated in "Shopping with Lady Fox". This even is still on going and I am not planning to stop any time soon. But I just wanted to take time to take notice all the readers who have bought products through me.

I started this event to give more meaning into my post.
Since I live in Korea I get to experience so many brands, and I love sharing it all with you. I introduced so many brands, popular brands, to none popular brands. I noticed not everyone could get these products in their country.
If no one can get the products who would find m post helpful? Why share something no one is interested in?
I fell into this dilemma and in order to solve it I decided to help out all readers to buy product through me. I find this very fun. First I get to see what product catches my readers interest and Second, I get to help you all and see you enjoy the cosmetic I've sent.

However as I help more and more, I find how this can get delayed with my personal life and work life. Even so, so many readers patiently waited and waited for their package. I apologize, and also thank you all.

I decided to put up some people I've helped get the products and their opinion.


She is a beautiful blogger I love her taste! do check her out, she also has fashion styling too. 
So, I'm really thank you to my friend Estella, she got the deal for meIf you searching for Korean Cosmetic, She can help to purchase it for you. Take a look for her blog and Say Hi from Katy -Daily Beauty 89*psstt I want to shop again this month, anybody want to join me? So we can share the shipping fee
Ok, lets take a look what I got from Clio and Peripera.. I'm super happy after getting my package >"<
i think its great that you are helping your readings get them! If you want anything let me know, although cosmetics even drugstores are significantly more expensive here thats why i buy online!
surely I will continue to support your post and will reorder from you soon;P
The package came somewhere in January and I'm really satisfied with your service. The packaging of the product are all still in tact yaaay. :)
My parcel reached me this afternoon! That's really fast! (:
A really big thank you to you for making all my purchases possible! my friend says thank you for the L stuff from shara shara, she was so happy with the standees lol!
Thanks dear, for helping me to try out the brushes!! Won't get a chance like this in Singapore! You're of a big help ((:
I will always appreciate the fact that you're taking time out of your day to do this for your readers! Just a casual reminder that I'm grateful enough for everything else you've done!
I'm soooooo excited and logged back in just to share! A couple months
ago, Dani Yang and I friended a girl from South Korea! She went
shopping in Korea for us! I ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ it!!!!

I received my package today! I just wanted to thank you so much
for buying and mailing the products for me and Mayko!! I'm so
excited to try them out! Again, thank you for taking your time in
doing this for us!!
These are just few of  my order with my readers, I'm so glad everything I did to help gave so much joy to you girls. I really enjoyed buying all of these products for you and with you. Also enjoyed befriending everyone! It's great to have friends all over the globe. 

samples I've been sending while taking orders
There is so much more and even more with reviews and pictures, but After my computer died most of the memory is lost and I lost a lot of pictures during the procedure.

But I wanted to take time to thank you all for trusting me and thanking me for doing this event. I'll be keep doing and I hope this helps more girls to don't feel hesitated to ask me to help them like these girls. I love you all so much! Have a nice week!

EXTRA QUESTIONS

HOW LONG ARE YOU GOING TO DO THIS EVENT?
I honestly don't know. I am enjoying this so much I think I want to keep doing this. I think if I ever decide to stop doing this is when I decide to stop blogging. So don't worry girls, I'll be always here to help.

WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS?
I'm sure many of you might ask this question, because I clearly don't get any benefit through this. I don't make money, nor do I get any promoting from the brand (Actually so far I got none...:"(..either I'm unlucky or hated by the brands) I started doing this just to help out readers who was having so much trouble getting the products that I reviewed. I have strong belief that all my reviews products are worth trying, but if no one can get it, I find my review post worthless.

That is why I started this, and also the reason I can't stop.
You might say I get nothing out of this, but I get the most valuable thing in the world.
"Friends"
Though this event, I become friends with so many girls all around the globe. We talk so much I enjoy my weekends replying to all my mails. I find each girl's interest and common thought and concern all around the globe very interesting!! Some sends me gift! 
I personally asked if I could brag about it! XD


Isn't this so cute?
It makes my face look so much lovelier and younger XD
LOVE IT!! thank you dear~

Anyways, putting that aside :")
Next, question!

ARE YOU A FULL TIME BLOGGER?
I got this question a lot, I'm not sure why.
No I am not a full time blogger, that is why I sometimes have hard time promptly sending packages and replying messages. I send packages whenever I go close to a post office, buy stuff on my way home from work. If I am just too busy even to visit I'll order from the official brand site. Some of my readers kindly understand how it's hard for me to find time to help out readers between my personal life and work life. While some might not be so understanding. So if it's okay I apologize if I can't meet all your expectation when you order, I ask for kind and love and understanding. :)

Sorry I think I kind of leaked out of the subject here.
But I wish to be a full time blogger someday.

CAN YOU GET STUFF OTHER THAN COSMETICS?
Yes and no.
Yes if I can find them, No if I can't find them. :)

    1. I am not rich, all the payment is done by the readers I just buy them and send it to them. Like you would do if you had a friend in Korea to get the products for you.
      Lol, I know what you mean. I guess that's why I enjoy just buying products for my readers it's lovely to look at XD

  4. oh dear Estella (k)

    Thank you so much for purchasing Korean products for us! Your always provide us with great reviews/swatches/recommendations/advice (h) allows me to understand and discover more Korea cosmetics and culture etc...You are such a wonderful person to know as a friend online which isn't easy as you are so honest and you would share all things that you know; your interests to me i.e.Kpop stars lol :)

    BTW I received my order a few days before but I was so busy working on my assignments for uni so I didn't write to you even though I really want to say a big thank you for what you have done. Really well packed indeed I was pleased^^(( As you said what you are doing for us is time consuming and you are doing it at your own free time:Q

    Thanks for giving a few samples with my order (b) and I got straight into trying all my products! I see you have displayed my order in pic.4 in this post lol~ I love most of them except for Nature Republic's lip tint cuz the stain is not long lasting>,< but again it was moisturising to use for lips so this could be the cause for it which is a shame bcuz their EXO tint balm #peach has the same colour (I think~) but much longer lasting for use/ less colour transferring when I drink etc. And Face It concealer was great+moisture to cover up spots and to correct the brown coloured dark circles, but to lighten up my dark circles for a natural look I still need a lighter ivory/beige concealer to finish the look. A'peu tea tree oil and Etude House Magic Cushion #Mint is better than my expectation! The mint cushion really does gives you a natural glow but would also reduce/cover most redness on your face! So glad I have got their 1+1 order new product promotion from you as I wasn't planning on getting it before I knew the offer! Right I am going to end this here as I am always too good in writing long comments (p) :-s Surely I will keep my eyes on ur posts and will order from u again at some point later in the future. It will be really cool if you could also starts sharing some Korean fashion items e.g Kpop stars style/Office formal style... and may be also some simple traditional foods recipes? This will really add interests to your blog for sure! :d

    1. Aw, Ariesa, you'll bring me tears thank you so much for such warm-heart comment. Lol, thank you so much for your thoughts on the products.
      I see, the color of the tint balm and lip tint is the same, and since natural republic lip tint (It's says it's tint I wonder why) it's not long lasting. LOL, I never knew that balm could last longer than tint, and also bit more stain proof. I tend to eat all my moisturizing balm so I use balm much faster than anyone XD

      Really? lighter color for concealer? how bright is your skin color? I tend to find concealer one tone darker than my skin work much better on the dark circles than the same toned concealer.

      I'm glad I had you tried that Etude House Cushion Mint, how would you have known you woul d love it so much without the event? XD

      Aw, I don't mind long comments~ Lol, I did think of adding bit more fashion, bit more food, but I am always afraid it might drop the professional theme I have with cosmetic. But I will keep your thoughts in my note for future develops of my blog

    2. You are welcome Estella :) Yes it is a mistery for NR tint lipstick...it does stain in the end but you will have to go through the colour transferring process as it really isn't stain proof. I guess the tint balm is more gel-like/matt-glossy? and tint stick is creamier so balm would last longer. My skin colour is lighter than N21 (stands or the Iope cushion you got me). I like the Face It 'cover up' stick end better than the liquid to alter my dark brown circles. It hides the brown colour but then I hv to use a lighter concealer (ivory-beige) as the liquid end is too yellow to brighten up my dark circles.
      hahaxD Don't be afraid to try adding different subjects to your blog as you are already doing so well with your cosmetic theme! I guess you can ask what your readers' thoughts on adding fashion/food etc for future development later on (o)

    3. Thank you for your great ideas! I might want to do more food we don't love food! XD

      Anyways, well, I use the lipstick parts on where I need larger part to cover, I use the liquid part for the dark circles too, I use the lipstick for some darker side of my cheeks from uneven tan. XD
      Okay.. lighter than N21, It won't be easy to find something lighter than that in Korean Cosmetic, have you seen my Lalavesi review? maybe their lightest shade made work for you. not so sure though.

  5. Hi Estella,
    It's really nice to found you, since you provide many information by doing review and posting Sale information on Facebook (even though I haven't got chance to buy anything through you ;( ). Also you very kind to help others to get Korean Cosmetic in it's original price since oversea sales tends to be pricier and not all item available.
    hehehe actually I don't have much to say, I just want to show you that I enjoy your blog and your post on Facebook (h) (h) (h)
    keep on writing Estella, cheer

  6. Hello. ヽ(*゜∀゜*)ノ
    I've always been an avid reader of your blog. The
    reviews you've posted are so thorough and honest
    plus the majority of the product hadn't been reviewed
    elsewhere. Unfortunately the products aren't available
    online and most the prices are inflated a bit. Then us,
    readers started to comment where we could get these
    wonderful products and you are so geniunely friendly
    and put so much thought and time to create this event
    for us to experience Korean cosmetics from high-end to
    roadshop brands. Since the beginning I knew I could trust
    you and I'm glad I've ordered from you. I can't sincerely
    thank you enough for helping us
    purchase at the same price or the great
    sale prices as well. Especially helping us between your
    personal and work life and we owe you to be as patient
    and grateful for shopping for us. I've tried other online
    shopping service and you are my favorite because it really
    does feel like shopping with a friend. Honestly you are
    very knowledgeable about products and I can rely on you
    to ask for your opinions because you are authentic. I know
    you will truly voice out the pros and cons of a product.
    You are a lovely friend and for giving us not only a friend
    to chat with and bond about beauty or other topics but also
    an opportunity to buy products from Korea. I really
    will be indebted to your kindness and helpfulness and I
    want to also convey it by also mentioning if I can
    help with anything I'm here to help always. I hope
    you always continue sharing your reviews even when
    you aren't able to continue the event I'm really
    fortunate to have meet someone like you online, THANK
    YOU SO MUCH.づ。◕‿‿◕。)づ
