      It took about a week. Like regular airmail. :)

      Toner (化粧水) a see through water like liquid usually, it is like a moisturising base for all the rest of your skincare routine, it helps milk, serums, creams absorb better. Use it in the morning andevening, after cleansing and washing your face, before other skincare.

      Milk (乳液) is the second step, it is more creamy, rich, usually white. If you have oily skin you can skip this step, if you have dry or aging skin you might want to use a rich, moisturising milk. :)

      MY skincare routine looks more less like this:
      (clean face) toner --> serum -> eye cream --> milk --> face cream --> spot treatment --> MAKEUP :D

      Hugs dear!

      Oh man, tell me about it! XD At first I too had no idea how to navigate that site!! XD

      First take a look at the main site: http://www.adambeauty.com/. There are icons representing each big brand like shiseido or kanebo, etc. If you click on that icon, all the subbrands of that brand will appear. (For shiseido it will be maquillage, majolica, haku, etc...) This is one way to browse. Also the product finder at the top works well - if you are looking for toners just look into skincare --> toner. After a couple times trying I got used to the site.

      I find the prices are very reasonable, practically the same as original japanese prices, not inflated like at many other stores. And if you go for standart shipping, it is only 2$. D:

      So I think if you want some japanese/korean cosmetics, adambeauty is a really nice website. And I am not sponsored by them or anything. ;)

      Do you mean I could teach japanese on my blog? ;) Well, there are so many online resources for learning japanese online already (including youtube videos and tons of pages on grammar and vocabulary, hiragana, katakana and kanji), that I think teaching on my blog would only be drop in a sea... ^^'
      Anyway, if you want to study japanese, go for it! It's not hard and lots of fun! :D

      I teach japanese language as my second job :D It was my major and also I really enjoy teaching :)

      Hmm, I really like the bag - the style, size, quality. I get compliments on it and it looks great and up to date with many clothes. I say, if you like it and have the money, just get it! :D
      The only CON is that the flap is secured by two magnets on the bag and the flap, but then again, it never snapped open, even with tons of things inside and carrying it by the short handle. So yup, overall a great bag and more spacey than it looks. ^^* Hope that helps!

      Hello! It depends on the brand and bb cream, but most of them do contains silicones - I think you can find a good one for you if you just read the ingriedents list carefully - some ebay sellers list ingriedients in english or you can copy the list from makers website and us google translate to see more less what`s inside. Maybe you can also ask a Korean person from translation at lang-8 website?

      My favorite bb cream so far was Missha Oriental Herbs bb cream - but it has many herbs and maybe wouldn`t be best for super sensitive skin?
      Anyway, good luck!!
      They are not expensive, so try anyway, maybe it will be fine?
