A few weeks ago I enjoyed a short trip to Korea + Taiwan. As you’d expect, I had one main goal to achieve – buy alllllllll the things. When I spent the night before returning home packing and shoving and throwing out all the beautiful, beautiful packaging I thought I had done pretty well. I had left Australia with about 8kg of essentials and returned with a fat and bloated suitcase clocking in at just over 20kg (damn you Cathay Pacific and your cut off dates. FYI if you book a ticket with them now you get a 30kg allowance) Now that I’ve finally had time to sit down and photograph my spoils I’m disappointed I didn’t check off more stuff from my wishlist, but there are good reasons other than the weight issue. I knew a lot of the items I wanted were going to be heavy so I was prepared to stock up on more items and ship it over. Turns out it wasn’t necessary. SO IF LUGGAGE ALLOWANCE WASN’T AN ISSUE, WHY DIDN’T I BUY EVERYTHING ON MY WISHLIST? Not all the cosmetics are chea...
