Review: iHerb.com

iHerb.com is an online heath food and nutritional supplement website that also sells the odd beauty brands such as Real techniques makeup brushes by Samantha Chapman and Physician's formula.

I was desperate to get my hands on the Real Techniques brushes after hearing raves about them on youtube but didn't want to fork out the odd $20 + for one brush at Priceline when I could get them for under $10 online.

I went searching and found my way onto iHerb.com thanks to www.youtube.com/user/laurenbeautyy.
In the end I got 4 brushes for $39.96 then shipping was only $6.00 (score!) and they were having a special 10% off, so all up I paid $39.26. I was so happy with my purchase and was so excited for my brushes to arrive in the mail.

I was super surprised when my package arrived less than 2 weeks later, expecting it to take at least another week or so. My brushes were in perfect condition and I couldn't be happier with the fast delivery, cheap shipping and low prices iHerb.com has to offer.

I'm currently eyeballing a lot of the physicians formula products since they're all under $15 on the site where as in Priceline you won't pay under $25 (Shame on you Priceline) for most of their items and they very, very rarely go on sale.

I definitely recommend iHerb.com to anyone looking to purchase the Real Techniques brushes or any physicians formula products at a more affordable price than you'd find in store.

Review: cherryculture.com

cherryculture.com is an online store that sells drugstore brands such as Ardell, NYX, China glaze, Jordana, Milani and many others at a discounted price.

I decided to check out cherryculture because I'd heard some really good things about the site and when I saw the unbelievably good prices I couldn't resist. So in the end I broke out the debit card and ended up spending *a lot* more than I should have.

Cherryculture was impressive with their low prices and range of American brands that aren't avaliable to Australians. I was enticed by the milani eyeshadows and nyx eyeliners and ended up purchasing $110.47 worth of products. I purchased 3 Milani baked eyeshadows, a Milani baked blush, baked bronzer and a brow kit, NYX super fat and super skinny eyeliners, the studio HD powder, the nude on nude natural look kit as well as one of the runway collection eyeshadow pallets and lastly a double set of the beauty blender sponge. I was super happy with the price of everything and then my world came crashing down when I remembered that I still had to calculate in the cost of shipping. For insured shipping the price was going to be $31.16 and although my head was about to explode I was far too invested in the beauty blender sponge and milani baked eyeshadows to empty my cart and forget about it all. I closed my eyes and blindly hit the checkout button before I could change my mind.

I paid and entered in the expected arrival date of my package in my calendar for 10-15 days later. The only thing that makes me hesitant to purchase from cherryculture again is the fact that I sold my soul for shipping and then my package took 2 days shy of a month to arrive. Not happy Jan! i dont know what went wrong but cherryculture got some brownie points back when I unwrapped the package and discovered how well  it was packed and that nothing was broken because of it.

All in all I will most likely be purchasing through cherryculture.com again, although I am going to check out some other sites to see if I can get cheaper shipping anywhere else.
