First BeautyNetKorea order plus possibly last TesterKorea purchase

Alright, I'll admit, I've been obsessed with TesterKorea; this is my 4th purchase from them in as many months! Their Brands Sale section used to be so good; 30% discount on everything including my favourite Korean brand Innisfree. Sadly, this discount was recently reduced to 20% and excludes items under 3,500 KRW (that's masks out then!)

Having to pay shipping on top means that TesterKorea's overall prices are nowhere near as competitive as they used to be.

As a result, I've started shopping from an alternative store, BeautyNetKorea, who offers free shipping on everything, and therefore works out to be cheaper for small purchases.

I placed my BeautyNetKorea order on the 1st and it arrived today, so speed wise they're faster than TesterKorea, where orders take a week to be dispatched then at least another week to arrive. I'm not a fan of BNK's slow loading website or the busy layout, but I can live with these if the prices/service are good.

Everything was individually wrapped with bubble wrap and arrived in perfect condition. At the time of purchase, these products were not available from TesterKorea.


Other than samples, I got:
Secret Key Snow White Cleansing Foam - Like Innisfree & The Saem, Secret Key is another natural Korean brand
Secret Key Gold Premium First Eye Patch
Secret Key Snail 97 Soothing Gel
The Saem Saemmul Aura Liquid Highlighter #1 Pink Light, #2 Gold Light
The Saem Urban Eco Harakeke Firming Seed Sleeping Pack
The Saem Saemmul Smile Bebe Blusher #1 Rose Pink, #2 Mango Peach

Who knows, if TesterKorea has better promotions in the future, I'll return. For the time being though, I'll take a break from hauling products - have so much to get through (plus there's more on the way) that I've had to start a spreadsheet to keep track of everything >.<

What could possibly my last TesterKorea order:

I restocked on 8 boxes of Innisfree Yummy Collagen With Jeju Soybean. Really is delicious stuff!

While I appreciate being sent samples, I prefer to stick to the natural brands (e.g. Innisfree, The Saem, Beyond). Therefore most samples I get just end up end up in the bin =(
