K-Beauty Holiday Editions I'm keeping an eye on
Christmas is over already and though there's still no sign of snow yet, the KBeauty world has blessed us with a few really pretty holiday/christmas/winter editions!
Here I'm going to show you those, which I'm most excited about and plan to purchase something.

Innisfree

Innisfree's limited edition consists of not only beauty items but also candles and that sort of stuff. There's also a DIY musicbox available, which is a really unique and cute idea! I won't purchase anything of the collection but I really like the festive design, especially the cushions. They also offer a planner set with pens/pencils which I'll get through a friend. It comes in two colors and is really cute and makes a great gift, even though christmas is already over.

Laneige

Look at this beautifu packaging of the Laneige holiday collection. The name 'Milkyway Fantasy' fit's perfectly to that sparkling blue design. I ordered the cushion in the shade #13 and can't wait to get it! I saw many pictures of it and everyone says it looks even prettier in person so I'm really excited.

The Face Shop

The Face Shop did it again. They're constantly bringing out limited editions with the Kakao Friends. I love them so much! Especially Ryan and Apeach which is why I'll probably get the hand creams and the Apeach body wash set. I'm also eyeing the Ryan fragrance set and the cushions, even though I already own two of the 3 types of their CC cushions they offer. Seriously, this is going to be the death of me and my poor wallet.

Banila Co

I grew up watching Pink Panther so I'm overly excited that Banila Co has repackaged their famous cleansing balm and some other products! It also comes with an adorable Pink Panther headband which I want the most, I still have to find a way how to get it without having to buy the complete set.

COSRX

Most of you probably have heard that COSRX came out with a special christmas pack including the two sleeping masks in a super practical tube form! I'm sad that the tube form is only temporary but COSRX usually listens to their customer's voices so there's hope the new packaging will become a standard! I've actually bought the set twice - once from Jolse and once from LoveMyCosmetics - because I really wanted to get the stickers and the planner  and I was too late at the Jolse sale. If anyone is wondering, the planner is not really a planner but more like a notebook kind of thing, which is fine too. I'll find good use for it!

Holika Holika

This year Holika Holika collaborated with the cute lazy egg Gudetama several times. Though they haven't really released a specific holiday collection, their most recent one, which theme is deserts, fits perfectly to the christmas vibe. I've already purchased one of the blushes but have yet to try it.

PeriPera

PeriPera is I think quite popular because of their Lip Inks, which is why they came out with special holiday packaging of them and even one fitting the new year with cute chicken on top! I read that you can remove the figurines and put them on pencils. Super cute idea!

Etude House

Etude House's collection 'My Little Nut' is really pretty. A lot really like the lipsticks and the eye palettes, which I'm eyeing as well. I'm just waiting for a sale so that I might be able to get the eyeshadow palette with the pretty red colors. I know the products are not really expensive but I can't justify buying another palette when it's not on sale!

Clio

I like Clio's cushions, so I'm especially eyeing these! I have no experience with any other of their products so I'm not sure if it's worth getting anything else, but the edition gives of a really nice glam/partying vibe which I really like!

Review // The Face Shop Monopop Eyes 02 Lovely Apeach
This is my very first review of a beauty product and I have yet to figure out how to take proper pictures of swatches. I'm sorry for blurry pictures in advance.
If anyone follows me on Instagram you might know that I got the Monopop Eyes 02 Lovely Apeach Palette of the Brand The Face Shop a while ago. They've collaborated with the popular Kakao Friends and released many products with a super cute design.
I love Kakaotalk and it's characters so I just had to have it! 
The palette comes with a cardboard sleeve and shows Apeach with it's eyes closed, on the palette itself there is Apeach with cute, sparkling eyes. The packaging is made of sturdy plastic and closes easily and tightly. The eyeshadows are covered with a piece of plastic which shows all Kakao Friends characters lined up, super cute idea! 
Using this palette is actually super comfortable as it can be laid out flat and comes with a huge mirror, it makes a great palette for travelling as you don't have to bring an extra mirror with you. Also included is an eyeshadow applicator, but I don't really use it as I normally prefer brushes.
The palette contains 8 eyeshadows, all are easy to wear day and night and can get combined however you like it. Suitable to the Apeach design all eyeshadows come in warm rosy/pink colors which give off a more romantic look. They all are shimmery, some more than others. The counterpart to this, the Muzi palette, focuses on brown shades.
The shadows are easy to blend and aren't highly pigmented so you can build the intensity of the colors up and layer them. I also haven't experienced a lot of fall out while applying them onto my eyes. But I do recommend using an eyeshadow primer if you want more vibrant and intensive colors on your lids.
  
Overall I can say this is a great palette with a nice selections of colors and overall has great quality. It's quite small and handy so it's easy to take it with you on a trip! 
Some might be a little disappointed that there isn't a matte shade, but I personally don't mind.
I'd definitely recommend this palette to anyone who wants to play with eyeshadows and create romantic and cute looks! 
It's also not really expensive, I got it for around 15$.

Keep in mind that this is a limited edition product so grab it while you can!  
I bought the palette at Beauty Box Korea but it's currently not available. There is a chance that they might restock the palette, as they also have the Muzi one back in stock. 
But it's definitely still available on Ebay! Though it is a little bit more expensive there.
