Ordered on the 16th, Shipped on the 19th, Received on the 30th.
I think that's pretty reasonable.
Package came in a small box...Mine didn't have the wordings "CHERRY CULTURE" all around the box like I thought it would have. Funny thing is, the shipping invoice estimated the box's value to be USD16. GRR I paid 7 times more than that! Lol. And the contents of the box was stated to be "Others : Art Supplies" HAHA. MAKEUP IS CONSIDERED ART SUPPLIES. And the box didn't have a shopping invoice inside...ohwell, everything came, all 19 items so I'm happy. And all in pristine condition! Thank god. Woooohoo.

Most items were bubble-wrapped and all were hidden in layers of paper.
Anyway, on to the items I got....

- Jumbo Eyeshadow Pencils in Milk and Pots N Pans
Am not disappointed, youtubers were right! Very creamy and good for eyeshadow base.
- Eyeshadow Brush #2
Soft bristles and doesn't look cheapo at all, nice weight for the handle, good grip. I'm gonna love this.
- Doll Eye Mascara: Long Lash-Black
Have not used this yet, looking forward to. Came in a very prettily designed box :)

- Loose Powder in California Tan
Phew! Took a bet with this, luckily it matches my skin colour perfectly.
- Sharpener
Jumbo eyeshadow pencils are quite hard to sharpen, but not if you have this! :D

- Top: Powder Blush in Spice
Quite a dark colour in the pan and when I swatched it. But after blending it out, it's a really pretty blush, leaning more to maroon than red. Shimmery.
- From left to right middle: Single Eyeshadows in Black(matte), Dune(metallic), Highlight(matte) -From left to right bottom: Single Eyeshadows in Champagne(metallic), Eggplant(metallic)
Oooooohhhhh pretty!! Highly pigmented, and so very cute! They come in a square pan that is not much larger than a 50cents coin. Blends out really well too. I'm definitely ordering more of these just coz I love their sizes!

- From left to right: Black Label Series in Mahogani, Round Lipsticks in Thalia, Rea, Circe, MegaShine Lipgloss in Perfect Red, Smokey Look, Round Lipgloss in Whipped
I don't wear red lipsticks, Mahogani and Perfect Red were ordered by my colleague.
The round lipsticks are very creamy but staying power not too good. No awkward smell, glides on smoothly. My current favourite is Rea! I'm wearing it right now just coz I feel like it :P It's slightly darker than Circe. Circe is my exact skin colour, so i would have to layer on lipgloss coz it makes me look a little too ashy. Thalia will never go wrong, I think it suits every skin tone. The round lipsticks are wonderfulllll, definitely gonna expand my collection of em.

I lovveeee my Smokey Look. It smells like cherry sorbet! Am gonna get more of these. The Whipped lipgloss smells a little funky, like lemon detergent...but really it's not that bad...

--> Mahogani (colleague's), Thalia, Circe, Rea. *gushes*

Can't wait for my next pay to come!
You know I'll be ordering again :)
