My name is Kitty and I am from Canada. Haha, this is just a quick intro! Anyway, I first discovered Gmarket back in February, and I finally decided to make my first order earlier this month!
A little blurb on my Gmarket experience:
I was completely confused on how to use the website. Although I did use the English version of the website, a lot of the suppliers had written their product pages in Korean so it was a bit difficult to decipher and translate back into English. My tip for those who are interested in ordering from Gmarket, have a translator by your side (I used Google's translator), it may not be accurate but it can ease some of the difficulty of selecting what you want to order. I am actually thinking of doing another post later on dedicated on how to order on Gmarket, a how-to guide! Let me know if you would like me to do it! :)
I made my order on March 8. Etude House was having a 50% sale at the time so the items I ordered from Etude House took longer to get to the Gmarket warehouse for international shipping. The items I ordered that weren't from Etude House only took around one day to ship to the warehouse. My order shipped out on March 18 and I recieved my package on March 21. Shipping was amazingly fast from South Korea to Canada, it took around 3 days, luckily my package went in and out of customs on the same day! Pretty lucky eh? It was probably because Gmarket marked my order as a "gift", I really appreciate Gmarket for doing that!
Anyway, now I will show you the products I got! Under each picture, I have included to the link to the product on Gmarket( English version of course) in case anyone is interested in the products! I hope you enjoy! :)
This is my big box from Gmarket, I was pretty surprised when I saw the size of this box! I was thinking "Oh man, I never knew I actually ordered this much!" As you can seen in the picture, my box came in perfect condition!
This is the view when I opened my box. As you can see, there was a lot of empty space in the box.
1. Samsung Galaxy S3 Case + Phone Mirror (bonus gift)
I needed a new phone case for my S3. My current Hello Kitty one is starting to break on the edges. So I decided to get this pink one with cats! The seller included a free "phone mirror" which I think is actually a screen protector, it was really generous of the seller to include it!
This year, I have become obsessed with nail polishes! So when I spotted Etude House new 2013 nail polish collection, I knew I had to pick up a few! The packaging for these nails polishes are adorable! And plus, Etude House was having a sale, definitely a steal! These are the ones I got!

Etude House Royal Jelly Mask Pack / 1 sheet
I also decided to get this facial mask sheet, but for my mother! She is a sheet mask fanatic so I thought she might enjoy this one! :)
Re-nk Shampoo + Conditioner Set
I am starting to suffer from hair loss (genetic) though I am only a teenager. So I decided to buy this shampoo + conditioner set to try! Sadly, the box the two products came in was damaged on the left side but luckily the actual packaging of the two items were in perfect condition. :)
These are close up pictures of the shampoo (left) and conditioner (right).
That is everything I got! I hope you enjoyed my haul! If anyone would like reviews on any of the products I have purchased, feel free to let me know! I am more than willing to do an in-depth review of any of the products because I am super duper excited to try them all!
Till next blog,
Kitty
