Online Shopping Experience: Trying Out AliExpress!

Hello there! Since I couldn't write anything on this blog for the past three months, I feel like I should write a lot today as a payback for my absences. So I am quite feeling excited to share with you guys my experience in shopping online with AliExpress!




I came to know AliExpress through a Facebook ad, it just appeared out of nowhere on my feed and I was intrigued by the products displayed in the ad so I clicked the bait. I was then redirected to the homepage of their website and there I started browsing some of their products.

Most of their products are priced really cheap but I was really skeptical back then about the quality of the products since almost all of them are from China. Plus, I've heard that some orders got lost on their delivery. I don't want to spend too much money on something that I'm not 80 percent sure of its success so I decided to order just one cheap item from them to test the quality of the products and the delivery process.



So this is what I've ordered, a bundle of cotton fabric. I ordered this on their app to get $4 discount so I had actually only paid $1.46 for this product which is approximately 76 pesos at that time. I paid through PayMaya, the virtual prepaid card, and they didn't deduct any additional charges.






Regarding their shipping method, they offer free shipping through China Post with no minimum amount of order but you have to wait for at least 30 days for the product to arrive in your local post office. I live in the southern part of the Philippines but it actually only took 20 days for my order to arrive. The local post office texted me that my order has arrived and told me to prepare 112 pesos upon claiming for the handling and storage fee. Yup, if you think about it, the whole delivery process is not really free.



The seller was kind enough to regularly message me of the update of my order. He also gave me a small free gift so I did really appreciate it. Overall, I am pleased with my shopping experience in AliExpress and I would definitely order some time again.



So that's it, if you want to know more about AliExpress, you can visit their official Facebook page here. Thanks for reading!

Sutla Flawless Papaya Soap and Lightening Lotion Review

Being born as a Filipino, I inherit from my parents the brown-yellowish skin tone that Malay race has. I am not as dark as chocolate nor as white as milk, I'm just somewhere in between and I am completely fine with it even though other people keep bugging me that I should be whiter to look prettier. It actually really upsets me sometimes that they don't think I can be beautiful just because I am not that white but sadly that's just how things are working right now and I have to go with that flow. But even after all that, I still don't want to become as pale as coupon bond. I don't really dream to have a whiter skin but I just want to have an even skin tone from head to toe. I sweat a lot that's why my armpit and neck area are quite darker than my skin tone. I tried a lot of lightening soaps to even out my skin but they have just actually made it worst. And just when I was about to give up, my sister introduced to me the P15.00   Sutla Flawless Papaya Soap .

Foundation Review: PeriPera Airy Ink Foundation (03 Sand)

Hey there! It has been a very loooong time since my last update on this blog. Well, this may sound quite embarrassing but the main reason why I couldn't write these past few months is...I forgot that I have a blog. Yeah I know, I'm really forgetful and inconsistent with my writings but I was busy living my life and it's just today that I found some time to write again and take some pictures and make this blog quite alive again, hehe. Alright, I should really cut now my silly introduction. Today I'm going to write a short review on my everyday foundation, the Peripera Airy Ink Foundation.  I bought this from Shopee Philippines last December 2017 for only Php 549 (appx 11 USD). The product comes in this very handy clear matte finished plastic pump bottle. I honestly first thought that the bottle was somewhat glass and not plastic because of how it looks but after a thorough personal investigation, I am convinced that it was plastic. The bottle contains 30 ml
