Where do I shop: SASA and Cosmetic Love ♥

SASA and Cosmetic Love

On this post i'm going to review/my thoughts on my 2 FAVORITE PLACES TO SHOP ONLINE. 

Sasa and Cosmetic love are my favorite sites for browsing and buying my Skin care and Cosmetic Products.



About Cosmetic Love: Korea 
Cosmetic Love strive to provide our customers with the wide range of Korean cosmetic products from various Korea brands such as Laneige, Etude House, Tony Moly, Missha, Skinfood, TheFaceShop etc, and we are planning to exapnd our line-up of other beauty brands as well. All products are 100% GENUINE and recently produced as we purchase direct from the Korean retail shop and manufacturer.



About Sasa: Hong Kong
Sa Sa International Holdings Limited ("Sa Sa" or "the Group") is a leading cosmetics retailing group in Asia. Listed on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the Stock Exchange) in 1997 (Stock Code: 178). Its over 250 retail stores and counters in Asia selling over 600 brands of skincare, fragrance, make-up and hair care, body care products, health and beauty supplements including own-brands and exclusive products. The Group employs over 4,600 staff in six markets across the region, covering Hong Kong, Macau, Mainland China, Singapore, Malaysia and Taiwan.

----------------------

Products:
As for products, SASA has more wider range of products and more popular compared to Cosmetic Love.(Cosmetic Love/2012 a newer site; when Sasa/2000)

Customer Service:
Both good! and thumbs up! :)

Prices:
I find that some of the products from Cosmetic Love is much more cheaper than Sasa.

Promotions:
Sasathey always have offer and changes everytime. I like that idea. sometimes they include free shipping too!* :)
Cosmetic Love - they give free gift/samples for every order/combined shipping gifts. Freebies and free tracking number will be provided with multiple quantities of purchase. 

Shipping/Rates:
(UK)
both ship worldwide

Sasa - Probably because they ship from Hong Kong, they take about 3-4 weeks before they get here.
Standard Shipping: £11.50. btw, I don't know if its just me or everyone else in UK, there's a fee/Custom charge to pay. I know its not Sasa's fault but.. uggh. even though I only order when they have promotion of free shipping, I still feel like im paying. T__T 

Cosmetic Love - Free Shipping! 1-2 weeks but normally no more than 2 weeks. greeeeat! love it!

-------------




Overall:
I like Sasa because of wide selection of products. what I don't like is that my orders take very long to get here. Sasa has my favorite products and they sell deluxe sizes too! love love love it!

vice versa



I like Cosmetic Love because of free shipping and my order don't take a long time to arrive and they give free samples too. what I don't like is they dont have a very wide range of products compared to sasa. I love the fact that products from Cosmetic Love is more cheaper than other sites. 





-------------

I LOVE THEM BOTH.  

there you go! my two favorite sites of all time :) 

thanks for reading and have a nice day! 
If you have any questions, feel free to ask :)

Review: JUJU Cosmetics Aquamoist Hyaluronic Acid Essence



JUJU COSMETICS Aquamoist
Hyaluronic Acid Essence


I was looking for a good Serum since I've used up my previous favorite Serum from Caudalie.
Review for Caudalie Vinosourse Serum if interested:
http://criseldadavid.blogspot.com/2012/08/review-caudalie-vinosourse-sos-thirst.html


It was expensive and I can't push myself to buy it.
buuut I found this Juju Serum from sasa while just browsing around on their site.
Here's my Haul from them if interested:
http://criseldadavid.blogspot.com/2012/08/sasa-haul2.html



The reviews from this serum was so tempting that I couldn't help myself and ended up buying it.
I have used this for a few weeks and I really wanted to review this the first time I used it.
but what I did is to wait a little bit more just to see whether my opinion would change; (might make me break out or something..)













REVIEW:


Price: 30ml ~ $20.10

buy: http://www.sasa.com/SasaWeb/eng/product/viewProductDetail.jspa?itemno=100856802001


Packaging: From what I saw from SASA's site, thought it was in a plastic bottle. It's actually in a glass bottle with a plastic pump. btw, one pump is just the perfect amount for my whole face.


Smell: No smell.


Texture/Consistency: white colour, gel-type and very smooth. sooo gentle to skin!


Suitable for: Says on the site that it's suitable for all skin types :)


Ingredients: 

100% Sodium Hyaluronic ~ to protect and moisturize the skin, penetrates to deep layer of skin and repair the wrinkles and dryness also improves the texture of skin, leaves the skin soft and bright. Mild Acidity formula. 
No Fragrance
No Colouring
No Mineral Oil
No Animal Origin Added 
*sasa


Comments:

This stuff is amaaaaaziiiiiiiiingggggg! see that? 
Soooo sooo much better than any serums that I have tried. I LOVE this

first thing, this spreads on my skin like water-soft-verrry soft water gel thing.
second it will become sticky but for just less than a minute and dries. 
and finally when it dries, my skin feels baby soft. I was so amazed by this. I didn't know this
kind of serum would exsist. 
and for the price? getting this amazing-ness? beats the higher brand.
This serum is actually for night time but I use this in the morning too.

Overall:

Perrrrfect.
  =   (5 Stars)

Thanks for reading!




<- so cute ryt >_<

Review: SK-II Facial Treatment Clear Lotion


SK-II Facial Treatment Clear Lotion


So much hype about SK-II products.
and so I tried :)
I've been using this for over a month and again, time for a review! :)







I use about 8-10 drops :)


uhh.. that's really dirty. guess thats good?... in a way? 


Review:


Price: 40ml / £5.60 - 150ml / £27.80 - 215ml / £41.70

40ml: http://web1.sasa.com/SasaWeb/eng/product/viewProductDetail.jspa?itemno=100137914001

Packaging: This is a Deluxe Sample so the look is slightly different from the full size one.

Smell: Doesnt have a strong smell; very very slight alcohol-y smell. :D


Texture: Just like most other toners, it has watery consistency.

Comments: 
- Brightening: Many people love this because of the whitening effect it gives them but not to me :(.
- Gently exfolitates my face and moisturizes my skin. 
- This toner contains AHA that gently removes dead skin cells and removes dirt; as you can see from the picture above. :)
- Also contains SK-II's Patented Pitera to enhace cell regeneration - I'm not sure about this one because I still have young-ish skin hehe. this is perfect for people who have mature skin.

Will I purchase this again?
Maybe. This toner is expensive and I don't want my skin to get used to this and I do wanna
try out a different toner after using this up and my back up; (same size as this one).  


Overall: 
A good product. moisturises well and removes dirt. wish the brightening thing works for me too :/

 =  1/2  (31/2 Stars)

Thanks for reading! 
any questions? feel free to ask :)

Love,
Criselda~
