I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas! What presents did you get? :D Tell me about it in the comments below↓
On Christmas Eve I received a HUGE package from Michelle over at jst.hero. For those of you who don't know Michelle, she is an Aussie beauty blogger that I met through Beautifan, ibuybeauti's review site. We started talking to each other on Line and now I constantly annoy her with my messages. LOLjk Anyways, we've been planning for months to send each other Christmas gifts and now the time has finally come, so today I'll be showing you guys what she sent me. Thank you so much for everything Michelle!
When the package arrived early in the morning, I was really surprised (and still half asleep OTL). I'm not sure if the picture shows it, but the box was really big.
After jumping around with excitement for awhile I finally sat down to open the box. The whole time I was squealing like a little girl LOL
So after proceeding to take everything out of the box and removing all the bubble wrap, I started to go through all the gifts.
I was really curious what these were since they were all wrapped up in really cute wrapping paper! |
Can you see all the little notes she attached to some things? I started laughing when I realized they were actually chibis of EXO members! How cute is that?
First off she included a card with a really sweet message inside (which I'll be keeping to myself haha). She also included a paper crane for good luck! THANK YOU UNNIE
I'll start with all the food she sent me first. I swear I have enough snacks to last me for a year now. Michelle said that she won't let me diet and she was definitely right. I'm usually a healthy eater but this Christmas... OTL
She sent me two of her favorite chip flavors from Red Rock Deli! I don't often eat chips but I finished the Honey Soy Chicken flavor in just one day OTL The Lime & Black Pepper ones are also quite good!
OMG TIM TAMS! I've heard SO much about these and now I'm finally able to try them. They're seriously amazing! My brother keeps trying to take them from me LOL
Here are some other chocolates she sent me! The penguin shaped ones are so adorable! We have Cadbury and Lindt here in the States too, but I've never seen those flavors here so I can't wait to try them~
The hot chocolate and chocolate gift tags are such a cute gift idea! I think the LCMs Rice Bubbles are the Aussie version of Rice Krispies Treats, but they're less sweet which is nice. My brother actually did steal the freeze-dried strawberries from me, but that's okay haha.
Michelle went to Japan recently so she sent me some Japanese snacks. I haven't tried them yet but look really good! Why does Japan have all the fun KitKat flavors? ;__;
The Strawberries & Cream gummies are also really good! They taste kind of like Gushers (people in the US probably know this childhood snack), but less artificial and much better. Also my mom and brother finished the Shapes in a blink of an eye!
Thank you so much for all the food Michelle! There goes my healthy diet for the next few days LOL Now, moving onto the non-food related gifts!
EXO ♥ My second favorite boy band after Big Bang, haha. Since Michelle knew that my bias is Baekhyun, she got me a Baekhyun folder! She also included some EXO stickers and other really cute stickers. Thank you! My grandma thought that the picture of Baekhyun was actually a picture of the person who sent the package so she was like "A boy sent this to you?!". I then had to explain to her how that was a picture of a famous idol in Korea, not Michelle. lol OTL
Michelle actually asked me to pick something from Typo, a store that sells stationary and other cute things, so I picked the lanterns since she got Zyro one of them before and they're really pretty. THANK YOU :D She also included a cute 2015 planner as well. I'll definitely be putting that to good use next year!
This pencil case was one of the wrapped up items! When I picked it up it was really heavy, so I opened it and...
Tadah~ There were a ton of little things in there! I was quite surprised by how much the pencil case could fit. In fact, I can see myself using maybe even as a travel makeup pouch since it really does fit a lot of things.
Everything that was inside the case was SO CUTE. I can't wait to try the Aritaum lip balm and Canmake blush! The colors she picked are so pretty. You seriously know me too well Michelle lol
I've never tried Japanese cosmetics before and Michelle was kind enough to get me some (including the Canmake blush) while she was in Japan! Apparently that's her favorite eyebrow coat, so I can't wait to try it~ She also included a pack of LuLuLun sheet masks, Creer Beaute eyeliner, and blotting papers!
Some more lip products she sent in addition to an Eco Tools brush set. When I went shopping for gifts I was actually thinking about getting this, but then I reminded myself "I'm not shopping for myself, I'm shopping for Michelle and Zyro" so I didn't. So thank you so much Michelle you must be a mind reader! LOL The Mor Macaron Lip Balm is also really cute, and she included two of Australia's best selling multipurpose balms- Lucas Papaw and Lanolips! The Lip Smackers makes me nostalgic about my childhood lol Who remembers buying Lip Smackers as a kid because of their fun "flavors" and bright, colorful packaging?
Please excuse the lighting in this picture. OTL It started to rain while I was taking the last picture (this one) so the lighting became awful. Cali weather has been so bipolar lately- sunny one second, raining the next. |
She was also kind enough to get a hand cream for my mom! Thank you so much! My mom also says "Thanks" ^^ She was really happy to receive something~
Omg those socks are so adorable! She also sent some little accessories like a keychain and phone charm. Doesn't the phone charm look like something from Anna Sui? It's actually a tiny mirror!
Last but not least, some of the other cosmetics she got me while she was in Korea. I was so excited to see the VDL cushion and Mamonde rose balm since they're limited holiday editions and Michelle knew how much I've been wanting them LOL She also included a lollipop from VDL which I think was a gift for buying something from their Dylan Candy Bar holiday collection!
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR EVERYTHING MICHELLE ♥ I now have enough food to last me for 2015 and enough lip balms to last me for years! I can't wait to try everything out ^^You seriously sent too much ;__; The whole time I was opening the package I was actually silent because I was so awestruck by how much she sent. You've totally spoiled me OTL

WOW! This gift exchange is nuts! You guys picked some pretty kickass things for each other. I can't tear my eyes away from the snacks, and those chip flavors make me wanna run out to the grocery store. The little EXO notes Michelle stuck onto the things are so cute hahaha.
ReplyDeleteThanks Terri! :D LOL I know right? The snacks are all seriously so good! I'm semi-glad we don't have those chips here, otherwise I would never be able to stop myself from buying them OTL
ReplyDeleteWow, all these things are so cute! The honey soy chicken chips look so good omg. T_T
