Welcome to our website !
I have yet to try very many Skinfood products so I was drawn to this for that reason in particular. 

The packaging is actually pretty chi, it comes in a paper liner with a little card on an elastic to hold it all together for great presentation.  A+ Skinfood.

Inside the card it explains what the purpose of the mask is for, the 'Olive story' and your application.

Purpose: "A mask that seals tightly on skin to eliminate dryness and white flakes. (contains spanish olive oil)"
Olive Story: "Olive oil from sunny Spain is enriched with unsaturated fatty acids."
Application: "Apply an ample amount onto the face and massage gently, focusing on areas where more dead skin cells have piled up.  Rinse off with lukewarm water."


So past the paper packaging it is also sealed with plastic to prevent customers from getting into new product.  The container is glass so it will be great to keep around for holding desk essentials in or your bobby pins and hair elastics.  Yet again, another A+ Skinfood!

The mask itself is a light pastel green with small particles dispersed.  This isn't a thin mask that it's melting off your face but it also doesn't dry on your face like a clay or peel off one would.

Thoughts
 From my experience, I found this mask to be quite oily during application but after I washed off the oil went away.  The only effect I noticed was that it made my skin have more moisture. I would recommend using this mask particularly in the winter when it's really dry and cold to reinforce moisture.  Because it's such a light mask, you could use this a few times a week which is what I am trying to do to finish up the container.  The smell isn't the greatest but tolerable because it's so subtle. Going back to the packaging one more time, I really liked that it was in a glass jar instead of just a plastic container, it really adds to the presentation which I don't think a lot of companies think about.
  
Overall;
I recommend this to people that have dry(er) skin as well as anyone who has skin troubles during the colder seasons. 
Alright, I love roseroseshop and recommend them to anybody looking to start in the world of kbeauty.  However, if you're looking for a speedy delivery this is probably not the company you want to go with as they use DHL for their shipping company and I had quite the issues with them.  I wasn't planning on doing express post but since I noticed that there was only a 2$ difference between regular and express I figured why not go for express.  Once it shipped out it only took one day to get into Canada.  That's insane coming from Korea.  I got over 20$ on customs fee for this, which I found to be pretty odd because I've never gotten customs fees on anything from roseroseshop but then I thought that maybe it was just because I picked express.  I contacted them thinking that I would get the same response that I had thought it was going to be.  Turns out I shouldn't have gotten a customs fee because roseroseshop ships as a gift package and at a lower cost.  
I wasn't too concerned about the extra shipping costs but I had expected to get the shipping that I had paid for at that.  So it was supposed to arrive on Friday, which it didn't because apparently you need to be available all day to receive any package and I was out all day.  Now I'm on the phone trying to figure things out and it turns out that they only attempt delivery one time a day and that's it and on top they don't post on weekends, whereas Canada Post will ship on Saturday.
At this point I'm pretty upset because now I have to wait all weekend for anything to happen.  Monday comes around and my tracking says 'left for pickup as requested by recipient'.  For starters the pickup spot is an hours drive away from me and with no vehicle it would seem pretty hard to pick something up without a vehicle and work all day on top.  So no, I hadn't requested it to be picked up.  I didn't receive it on Monday either.  I put a complaint in at this point, and then lone behold my package came in the following day.  
Long story short; I do not recommend the shipping company DHL.


Let's get onto the unboxing

I decided to go with 2 different brands in this haul so I can get a better idea of what each brand has to offer.  This time I went with Too Cool For School and Etude House, most of the products are from them with very few exceptions.  I'll start with the exceptions.

I seem to be obsessed with this kind of packaging for samples and felt the need to get some more! 

 
So basically, the birds nest part kind of intrigues me and it's also an aqua sleeping pack which makes me think of water.  Pretty legit.

Eventually I plan on doing a roseroseshop egg haul.  There's a lot of egg products that I would like to try and yeah it looks pretty cool.
 Those are my only 3 items that aren't either Too Cool For School or Etude House.

 These packs are pretty big, bigger than what I had expected.  I got 2 firming packs, 2 moisturizing packs and one brightening pack.

 I'm not entirely sure what this does but honestly it looks really cool so I figured I would try this out just because.

Because I love Welcos' Killing me Zombie CC cream, I feel like this will be no more short of quality either.

You'll have to wait to see what color I got! ;P

 Rules of Pore Morocco Ghassoul Tablit Pack and Rules of Pore Morocco Ghassoul Cream Pack
Mainly excited about these two puppies right here.


 That's everything for Too Cool For School, now onto Etude House.

 I got two samples from Etude House. Collagen Moistfull cream and Toc!s All in One Gel samples. After my cart had been pretty well full to the brim I stumbled upon the Toc!s gel and had actually wanted to get the full size but decided to go with the samples for now to see whether I like it or not.

Let's go onto the hand creams now because I went a little accessive with the cuteness overload.

Missing U hand cream in Panda/Peach and the Pink Dolphin in Fiona.  I'm not sure what Fiona is and that's why I got it because I wasn't sure!  I love surprises.
My Castle Hand cream in Ice Frozen and Sweet Cookie. Figured I was already going hand cream crazy may as well add some more cute in it.

 Etude House Hand Bouquet Rich Collagen Hand Cream
Oh Happy Day Hand Bouquet hand cream in the kind Rich Water.
I'm obsessed with things rich in water or aqua, they always just feel so refreshing and hydrating to me.

I don't have purple spots or so it says but I do have slight red patchy spots due to having Rosacea. And just look at that cute broccoli right there.
 
Hand Bouquet Rich Butter Hand Mask (pink)
Hand Bouquet Collagen Hand Mask (yellow)

Etude House Blending Sleeping Cream In four different scents. (too lazy to figure them out)
In my roseroseshop haul last fall I had ordered 3 of these I believe and was satisfied with the results I decided to go ahead and order more!  I didn't do reviews on the ones from the fall unfortunately so hopefully I will get around to doing them this time.



Sunshine in Spoon Scrub Massage Cream in Pomegranate and Soy Bean.
I'm pretty excited to try all of these out!




Silk Scarf Damage.  Since Raelene had ordered these masks back in the fall and loved the Argan mask so much she made me convinced to buy some too.  We made a collab post review on it here. I love love the Argan mask in particular(which is why there's six of them) that I had to buy each of them.  I will do reviews and compare them to the rest as well.

This was in my samples pack-I must have gotten a bigger sample and a small sample pack along with it which I forgot to take pictures of the regular 5 mini samples we usually get.

ANYWAY, that was part 2 of my roseroseshop haul and hopefully the last one of the year!  Maybe not hehe but we will see!
I know I haven't gotten into reviews from part 2 but all I've been doing is work, there's no time for anything but work that I actually haven't really used any of the products yet. sad times :( I promise I'll get working on reviews and posts when I get free time! 
It's pretty safe to say that I went a little bit crazy with this one.. but wait... this is only half of it!! I made another transaction 2 weeks after I ordered this one!  hehe, I'm a little bit obsessed ok?? But let's just face it, who can actually resist all of the cuteness.

We can see that it came nicely packaged all bubble wrapped and plastic bagged in case of leakage. A+ Roseroseshop!
Shipping only took about 3 weeks to get here and considering that it's coming from Korea, that's actually extremely fast.
I ordered a lot of samples on this haul so let's start off with those.

I actually have been meaning to order some Banila Co. because it looks really good quality but it's so expensive so when I seen there was a sample size(which I'm not sure is available on roserose anymore) I had to jump on it.

I love Apieu so since these were sample sizes I figured may as well go for it.
 
 Tony Moly Banana hand milk and sleeping pack
Banana


Now, Too Cool For School has one of the most fantastic packaging I have yet to see in Kbeauty and I am confident that they are nothing short of quality.
 
The next two are still considered sample sizes but they're in kits.
 
 Etude House Collagen Moistfull skin care kit. 
I don't think this is available anymore but they have Moistfull all over the website.

 Innisfree Eco Science special kit.
I don't think this is available either but I found this link here that is close to it.

Now, onto the full sized items.

Oh before I forget, I picked up a Too Cool For School Marshmallow Puff.  Most Korean brands carry their own 'puffs' aka Beauty Blenders for really cheap and well since I'm a cheap-o I went ahead and bought this as well.

Aqua Rush Peel Gel mask.
This was on for dirt cheap because the expiry date is coming up in July.  I figured if I was having a girls night we could all use it and it would be used up real quick.  Peel masks are great! 

Skin Food Olive Mask.
I'm pretty sure they don't carry this anymore either! I bought this because it looks right cool and it was on sale, of course! 

Now onto the hair products.
Apieu hair mask day and night.

holy this mask is huge! I'm excited to try it and give a review on it.

The Face Shop Peach Floral Hair mist.

 Since my first Argan bottle is almost finished, I decided to go ahead and order another one!  This time I got the Treatment Oil Fusion.
I love water and I love Welcos.  No wrong done here.
Because my hair is naturally curly I bought this to help bring my curls out even more.

And lastly, roseroseshop supplies every customer with free samples in their order. (woops picture is upside down my bad)

And so concludes part 1 of my Roseroseshop haul.  I'm so excited to be able to share all of these products with you guys in reviews as well as looking forward to my next package to arrive!
