Dainty Little Fingers: My First Gmarket Shopping Experience (Haul #1 & 2)

Hey guys!

Welcome to another blog entry from yours truly.

It’s been like, what, uhm…almost 2 weeks(?) of no posting from my end. Yeah.. kinda long but I was and am still busy because of school and work. And yes, I’m a student, a full time student and I don’t know what the heck I was thinking when I decided to be a full time student when I’m also working full time (8am to 5pm shift…ohmahluuuurrrrddd the heck I was thinking?!!!). Sometimes, I just bite waaaaayyyyyy more than I can chew and I just end up choking.

So here I am, juggling my work with school and trust me, I feel like I aged 5 years. I’m just sooooo busy studying that I don’t even have time to post an entry in this blog (Yes,….I am an irresponsible blogger. I know). BUT, I have free time now sooooooooooo………….get ready for an onslaught of posts from me!!!

So this entry will be dedicated to my awesome, awesome shopping experience with GMarket.com (Gmarket global NOT the Korean one unless of course you can read and understand the language).

So for all of you who don’t have annnnyyyy idea what GMarket is, then check this link here. It’s a long-assed narrative of how I became BFFs with Gmarket. *wink wink

So again, back to the topic at hand.

I ordered twice from Gmarket some beauty products. As you may have noticed, I hoarded a lot of aloe vera products. The reason is that I have sworn allegiance to the plant because of its many healing and moisturizing properties. The plant has just so many uses that it should be regarded as a super plant.

Like.

Seriously serious.

And I don’t have to break a bank for it since you get a lot for a small amount of money.

Like LOTS of it.

So as seen on the photos, I have bought a loooootttt of skincare. I’ve heard so much good reviews from these products from blogs so I want to check them out for myself and see if they live up to the praises they received from beauty bloggers. I am going to post separate product review entries for each product so please watch out for that!

So going back….(I’ve noticed that I tend to deviate from the topic a lot. Please forgive my brain.)

I placed an order last June 22, 2014 and received the packages July 7, 2014. It would have been earlier had it not for one seller who didn't send anything to the Gmarket warehouse until I sent a message to the Gmarket customer care inquiring them about the delay. Turned out seller doesn't have any stocks for a particular color I wanted for my Note 2 case. What annoyed me was the seller hadn't contacted Gmarket and just sent a notice when I followed up Gmarket who in turn followed up the seller. I was really annoyed.

But anyways, the rest of my orders were shipped without any delay. And so my annoyance kind of diminished.

Please check out the photos!!!
