Etude House Juicy Cocktail Gradation Review (Love Violet)

So heres my first review for the products I purchased from gmarket. This is the Juicy Cocktail Gradation Nails in #3 Love Violet. I heard many good things about Etude House nail polishes, so I thought this was a good way to test them out since you get 3 colors in one box!

These sets come in 6 colors total:
#1 Screwdriver (orange)
#2 Kiss of Fire (light pink/coral)
#3 Love Violet (purple)
#4 Mint Frappe (mint/teal)
#5 Princess Marry (coral/gold)
#6 Angel's Kiss (silver)



Colors from left to right:
#1 (base) soft purple, #2 (middle) romantic purple, #3 (top) mystery purple


The brush is a standard size and work really well to get an even coat.


English instructions as to how to apply the product.


Korean instructions and guide photos.

Rating: 5 out of 5!!
I love this set, as far as the wear time is concerned they last a fairly long time on my nails. After about a week there are chips on my right hand which always chips first. I love the way the colors turned out on my nails, and they dried pretty quickly so there wasn't an issue with messing up the designs.


Would I repurchase? Of Course! I absolutely loved these and am looking at the different colors to figure out which one I will purchase next.

I purchased this via gmarket for 5400won but they of course are available via ebay and other sites. The regular price for this product is around $5.61 so keep that in mind when looking for a place to purchase it from.

G-Market (Etude House) Haul!! [Part 1]

So I have been ordering off of Gmarket as of lately. Originally I was hesitant to do so due to the high shipping charge. I found a way to get around it for this haul, I had a friend who was teaching in Korea so I bought the items, shipped them to her and them she shipped them to me via snail mail (took 6 weeks). I saved a considerable amount of money doing it this way though, and I also had access to shops that did not ship internationally this way (Etude house ships internationally though!).

But on to what you've all been waiting for, my haul!! First up is my etude house products. Etude House is easily my favorite Korean cosmetic company. I got all of these products for 10% off since Etude was having a sale at the time (little did I know I should've actually waited for 30% off grrrr). So below are the products I got as well as the price I paid for it including the slight discount! I plan on reviewing all of these products so stay tuned for that!!

12500 won ($11.39)

Happy fresh foam in white clay and Witch Hazel (For oily skin)

I actually got three of these for free with buying the Wonderpore Freshner!

This was a gift with all of my purchases!! Aloe Moistfull skincare kit!

"I need you" sheet masks in lemon and red ginseng.
