First CupidDrop came by when the group met up for coffee in the morning at CaffeBean.
They were so generous to talk about their website where you can buy Korean stuff for free shipping within the US. I know that I will be using their services because I hate buying for international shipping to have my goodies ship from Korea.
After coffee, we walked over to Nature Republic to do some shopping. I loved all their products that had Bulgarian rose scent in it. They ended up suprising us with a goodie bag which contains the popular aloe gel, hand cream, ampoule and the ginseng royal silk mask. I couldn't wait much longer so when I got home that night, I used the ampoule and the ginseng royal silk gold mask and I loved it. This brand totally took me by surprise!
To continue onto with our shopping trip, we went to Club Clio which is one of my favorites Korean makeup stores in NYC. I ended up buying a cushion foundation, which to be honest I still have to get through 20 other cushions foundations. But I couldn't resist this waterkill cushion in shade 03 ginger. Plus the aqua line sheet masks were only $1 each so I got one to try out.
At checkout, Club Clio surprised us with a huge goodie bag including the Dr. G gel serum, a gift set and many sheet masks.
I didn't know that there was a TooCoolForSchool flagship in NYC.
The prices are a bit pricey but it's nice to know that it's accessible to people who can't get it from Korea. I do love their egg cream products such as the sheet masks. I'm looking forward to try their pumpkin 24K Gold mask. And I do think the hand cream will definitely be used during this winter.

After the morning shopping, since we were at Koreantown, I went to get a bun from bunn and green tea from BesFren. Very tasty!
While we are on the topic of BesFren, this store has became my favorite Asian skincare/makeup place in NYC. Great thing is that it's in midtown so it's easy to get to from subways and trains. They have so many brands in the store from skinfood to habolabo. The masks are always on sale and the prices are the lowest that I have seen in NYC. This is where I brought the most stuff on during this entire shopping tour,
At the end of the day, we received goodie bags from our wonderful coordinators, ranging from Naruko to pixie.
Overall, it was a successful meetup and shopping tour and there will be more meetups in the future!!
