I'm back with another Innisfree haul..... Innisfree just opened a 2nd store in Singapore and it is just barely 6 months after their first store!! How well are they doing! (I would like to claim credit for part of it.) (I've really recommended the brand to several friends and my family and they've found things they like!)
Anyway! I'm thinking that Innisfree likes me back too BECAUSE! They launched their new store when I was having an off day again!! #notplanned
So of course I headed down to the new store on their opening day. I wanted to post this haul a bit earlier so that you girls (or guys) will get to see the what are the opening day specials, but I was too busy to do a post despite my excitement. #innisfreefan
Just like their first store's opening, they were giving out Launching Bags for every $100 spent.
The Launching Bag this time is different. It comes with a cute Inni-rang makeup bag, Jeju Volcanic Pore Special Kit (I will show the contents of it below!), Jeju Gardenia Hand Cream, and a collection of Lee Minho photo cards. In case you didn't know, Lee Minho is the current brand ambassador for Innisfree.
(click here if you are interested to read about my haul from the first store's opening day!)
I think it is quite a good goodie bag! I like every item in it.
I really like the makeup bag. It is big and also has two little compartments to hold small items. It is probably too big as a daily makeup bag, but good as a travel make up bag. That's good for me because I don't carry makeup out daily actually, but I need a big bag when I travel as I put my makeup and skincare products in 1 bag.
I also really like the Jeju Gardenia Hand Cream! I actually already own one (don't think I posted a haul for it) and I literally stood in the Innisfree store to smell every single hand cream and this was my favourite! I was actually gonna buy another as backup!
The Jeju Volcanic Pore Special kit is also an amazing kit. They aren't stingy with the quantity! 4 tubes of 15ml and 13ml of the toner. The Jeju Volcanic line is one of their popular lines but I only own the Black Head Out Balm from this line. I can't wait to try the rest of the products! Just look at what is in the kit!!
15 ml samples |
Here's a photo of the Lee Minho photo cards for all you Lee Minho fans! The photo cards are quite a good size so I guess Lee Minho fans will like it.
& now moving on to my haul! Not all items are mine, of course! I already own quite a lot of Innisfree products...
I am not sure of the prices because somehow the lady did not give me my receipt. Was a little sad because then I can't tell you all the prices (and I also can't keep track of my points). So please note that all prices stated here are just from my own memory! 99% accuracy!
Innisfree Mint Green Tea Fresh Shampoo: $10 for 320 ml.
I've been eyeing this for a very long time (ask my mom. every time I happen to be there with her, I make her smell it.) It is meant for "troubled scalp" and "soothes sensitive scalp" but I mainly bought it for the smell. There's my confession.
Innisfree Blackhead Out Brush: $17
My sis bought this. (note to self: she has yet to pay me) We were watching this Taiwan beauty show the other day and the lady was demonstrating and recommending a similar blackhead brush. The Innisfree SA also said this is to be used with the Innisfree Blackhead Out Balm (which I bought on my Gmarket Haul #9).
Innisfree Eco Nail Color PRO #39 & #49: $4 for 7ml
I love Innisfree nail polishes because they are so affordable and come in a wide range of colors. Most that I own have good formula, and some have particular exceptional wear! The brushes are also wide and flat and give you good control. You know how nail polish brushes are either round (like Revlon) or flat (like OPI & Innisfree)? I prefer the flat ones because they make application much easier. Definitely recommend these to people who can't paint ONLY on the nails (you know what I mean ;))
Innisfree Green Tea Balancing Cream: $25 for 50ml
You know how much I love Innisfree Green Tea Pure Cream. I've repurchased it countless times (here is the proof) and I am still using one. I am running low on it and so I had to get a new one. Unfortunately, the Green Tea Pure Cream is discontinued and replaced with this new series! They now have 3 types of cream, skin & lotion to cater to the oily/dry/combination skin.
Green Tea Fresh Skin/Lotion/Cream: For oily skin
Green Tea Balancing Skin/Lotion/Cream: For combination skin
Green Tea Moisture Skin/Lotion/Cream: For dry skin
I've not checked out the skin & lotion range but I have compared the creams! The GT Fresh Cream looks just like a clear gel and it is what you always see people only say: gel for oily skin! The GT Balancing Cream looks the closest to the old GT Pure Cream, like an opaque white gel. The GT Moisture Cream looks like the GT Seed Cream (but not the same). Each are aimed to suit & help the different skin type! I hope I like this as much as I like the GT Pure Cream!! That was really my Holy Grail and I hope this can really replace it.
& now onto some makeup items for my mom! Early Mothers' Day gift?
Innisfree Color Glow Lipstick: $20
I bought this lipstick in #6 for Mom before (link here) and she really liked it a lot! She says it is moisturising and stays on her lips. She wanted something more orange this time and so I bought the shade #10 which is the closest to what she was looking for. Hope she likes it! $20 may not be the cheapest but it is really worth the price! Definitely comparable & maybe even better than others in the price range. Do try it out if you have the chance.
Innisfree Mineral UV Whitening Pact: $30 (*99% sure about this)
Mom also wanted something like this and when me & my sis saw that this was SPF50+, PA+++, we were like "OMG BUY!". lol. Maybe I should get one for myself too! SPF that you can reapply!
It comes with a cushion sponge (ok sorry I forgot what it is called) and a mirror!
I also like that the plastic separator thing flips open! Keeps it hygienic & convenient.
Innisfree Serum CC Cream (Brightening): $30
Lastly, Mom wanted a CC Cream. She bought a CC Cream in Korea last year and really liked using it. She was running low on it and so she asked me to purchase one for her. There were about 3 types of CC cream and we picked this in the end because it really felt moisturising (first impression) and mom also wanted something brightening. To be honest, I've not really checked out Innisfree base makeup range (BB cream, CC creams, foundation etc)! I still have products I'm trying to finish. That said, I've been waiting for Innisfree Singapore to stock in on the latest Smart Foundation range I've seen online! Looks quite fun to try. lol.
& lastly! Some samples we received as a welcome/opening day special:
Yes, that IS another Jeju Volcanic Pore Special Kit. They give that for every $50 spent so I received that & a Launching Bag.
The lady in front of me spent $250 and got 2 Launching bags & another Special kit and I was like -hearts in eyes-. lol, too bad I already bought some things over the past few months instead of accumulating them to one big purchase this time.

& that concludes my Innisfree haul on the opening day of the new store at Plaza Singapura! The new store is quite well stocked so do go down to check it out. (or maybe I shouldn't tell you that so I have more to myself...)
You can find the Innisfree stores at:
Plaza Singapura (#01-63 to 64)
Takashimaya S.C. (#B2-34/35)
That's all! :)
I had used the super volcanic clay mask. It really soften my skin and make my pigmentation lighter. I would like to try the cleansing foam of the same range. maybe i shd buy the kit.
ReplyDeleteHi! Yes I also think that the clay mask is really good and worth the price too! :)
DeleteThe kit isn't for sale, but currently they have a special christmas set where you can get the sample size of it free with the toner and clay mask! And a free pouch too. :)
