SASA Haul!

Hey guys! Long time no see! No excuses, let's just get right into it :)

So last week, there was a free shipping offer on SASA with any order over $29US. I was waiting for this time because I wasn't going to spend $75 in order for me to get free shipping. I ended up spending just under $50.

Shipping time was really awesome! It was my first time ordering from SASA and I knew they were shipping from Hong Kong, so I thought it would take about 2 weeks. But it came under a week from when they delivered it to my house! So impressed :) And it was all packed in a box with lots of those puff balls inside.

Ordered: 16th May
Posted out: 19th May
Delivered: 25th May

I will probably do a review on all of them...but not all at once. In time, haha.


Cettua Silky and Clear Nose Strip - $2.40

I got these because I heard about it on twitter and they're just for your blackheads on your nose. Apparently they're super sticky, but I haven't tried it yet, since I don't have much blackheads on my nose at the moment because I just used the Biore one last week, and wow guys, that stuff works. So amazed but disgusted at the same time, at all the gunk on my nose.


Koji Eyelash Curler No. 70 - $4.90

There's so many different number types of the Koji eyelash curler but I chose No. 70 because it was the most average sized one and would fit most normal eye shapes. So far, so good. I'm so horrible at curling my lashes, I feel like I never get to the "base" of my eyelashes enough to let them have the "curl" they need, but with this curler I'm able to get there without pinching my eyes and getting teary. Plus, it's $4.50. LIKE SERIOUSLY GUYS, as if I was gonna pass that one up!
I was going to get the Shu Uemura eyelash curler but it was sold out :(


Gi & Gary Professional Eyelashes (10 pairs, Light black) - $14.50

I'm always on the lookout for natural looking lashes that I can easily adapt to everyday wearing. Not that I do wear fake lashes all the time (I hardly ever wear them, seriously) but I have come to buying so many lashes that the boxes are stacked up in my room and I have no idea when I'm ever going to wear them all.
So I thought I'd give these a go, the comments told me they were very natural and my, they ARE natural! I wore them out today and they're so light and easily manageable. I highly recommend these if you're scared of wearing lashes out because you feel they're "too much". These aren't.



Essential Rich Premier Ultra Honey Hair Mask - $9.60

Another recommendation on twitter, I thought I'd try this hair mask out. To be honest, I've never tried any hair treatments at all, my hair does get dry at the ends sometimes, but I just ignore it LOL. Reading the reviews on SASA, it promises to "smooth" and "moisturise". I'll definitely report back on this and let you guys know!


K-Palette Real Lasting Eyeliner 24H Waterproof - $14.10

My Dollywink liquid eyeliner pen was beginning to run out, I think, because it wasn't as pigmented as I first used it and the "ink" wasn't transferring to the tip properly, which resulted in me using the side of the tip to draw my eyeliner on. So I thought I'd try it's competitor, the K-Palette liquid eyeliner. So far, so good. Pigmentation is good, tip is finer than Dollywink, which results in better accuracy when drawing it on your eye and it doesn't smudge!


I didn't get any Beauty Diary masks, which is what people usually get from SASA, but I'm not a face mask kind of person. I originally only wanted the eyelash curler but you know...stuff happens and next thing you know you're cart is full of things that you insist you need . Ah, online shopping.

What else do you guys buy from SASA? I'm always curious about Asian cosmetics and skin care and all that, but I honestly have no clue where to start. I rely on people's reviews and recommendations, so please, let me know! :)

  1. Ahhh so fast. I swear I put in my order an hour or so before you LOL but I haven't gotten mine yet. Monday hopefully!
    Hehehe the pore strips! I ordered like 4 packs when I already have like 6 of the Biore left to go. I'm crazy haha but yes I love my pore strips.
    Asian products are always good I swear..heard great things about the Koji curler and at that price - bargain!! I got my Shu Uemura in HK for cheaper but it was still like $15 haha.
    Ooh I'd be really interested in a review of the hair mask when you try it :) Using a macadamia oil one atm and have a Kerastase product after that but I'd love cheaper alternatives..
    Haha yeah I got a few boxes of MBD masks !! I also bought like craploads of blotting paper haha. My nose gets oily quite easily so I always keep blotting paper on me :) Hmm can't remember what else I got but we'll see :D
    Can't wait to get my orderrrrr :D

  7. ): I've actually never got around to ordering from SASA cause I always miss their promotions but like everyone else I can wait for the review on the hair mask. Been debating on getting it for ages!! Just don't know if hair masks will save my severely damaged hair ):

    I also bought that eyeliner a few days ago :) hopefully it's as good as everyone claims!

  8. i got the 24hr eyeliner too and it is a brilliant eyeliner! lovin it <3

    sometime i order cotton pads (to use alone with toner n makeup remover)
    though ordering this kind of trivial things sounds silly, the japanese one somehow work far well.

  9. Omg, i wanna make an order again T.T that site is the death of my bank account lol cant wait to near the review on the hair mask! Im really interested in that one!! ^____^ um, i order a lot of unnecessary stuff.... Usually things i really need that i know are like 5x the price here in NZ.. I'd recommend trying out those acne stickers from nexcare if they havent sold out/still have them listed on the site!!

  16. ahh I have to go back on Sasa and make some orders now...it's actually free shipping over $19usd at the moment. I'm going to get some Laneige creams! I actually usually go to Adambeauty for Japanese/HK cosmetics, Ebay for Korean cosmetics, and Sasa for the more expensive Asian brands (such as Laneige). please review the lashes and hair mask! :D I love falsies <3 and the hair mask sounds like something I'd need too haha!

  17. Lovely purchases, I've still not shopped on SASA yet but whenever I'm browsing on the website, I just want to get everything. How are you liking the k-palette eyeliner? I have the k-palette 24hr eyebrow pen and it's a life saver, absolutely love it!
