I am a huge fan of Erborian, so when I saw a few reviews of their new Black Cleansing Oil giving it high marks I had to get mine out there in the world. This has been sitting in my review queue for some time because I had to be completely sure of how I felt about it.

The Amorepacific Treatment Toner caught my eye because of the fancy ingredients. I’m not a huge moisturizing toner person, and usually go for acid toners. However, this was my first Amorepacific purchase and it had pretty good reviews so I thought I would splurge on this $50.00 toner.

It’s definitely summer! I’ve got a long-overdue sunscreen review today. If you follow me on Instagram, you know I have talked a little bit about this during Sunscreen Week. Speaking of sunscreen week, every week should be sunscreen week. It’s so easy to forget to put it on and the consequences are just not worth it! Prevention is key! My…

Have you read my review of the Joseon Dynasty Cream? If not, head on over and give it a read because the Secret Key Starting Treatment Cream is a really good dupe for the Joseon Dynasty Cream, and guess what? It’s cheap, cheap!

I’m conflicted about this product. I really like using lactic acid on my skin, but there’s something about the Blithe Energy Yellow Citrus & Honey Splash Mask I just have a hard time with. The directions. The whole idea of the thing. Here’s the thing, I like the product, I just think there’s an easier, less messy way to get…

I almost pushed “Checkout” on my Sephora cart without going through my “Loves” list. Glad I did, too, because Soko to Tokyo ($40.00) is BACK and it’s got products I have been wanting to try but couldn’t bring myself to push the button on.

I picked up three of these science-looking My Scheming masks on my last little weekend trip to NYC: the Mandelic Acid Brightening Mask, the Apple Brightening & Hydrating Mask, and the Oolong Tea Oil Cut Mask. I picked them up from oo35mm for $1.75 each! Great price! I don’t really ever purchases boxes of sheet masks because I’m fickle, but…

I’m probably the only person I know that still likes animal milk. Yeah, that organic whole milk. Delicious. I’ve never had milk from a donkey, nor do I plan on it. But I will put it on my face. 😎 I had good experiences with Soo AE Freeset Donkey Milk Skin Gel Mask Packs and recommend them.

The 23 Years Old Masks are likely the weirdest masks I have tried. I think I feel more creepy in these than the Daiso Silicone mask. I bought these because they were fancy-looking and fancy-sounding. They were on the expensive side for a sheet mask at $5 a pop (I bought them in NYC), but the packaging totally drew me…

At this point in life, if I had the choice of the last moisturizer on Earth, it would be Hada Labo Goku-jyun Alpha Milk. My skin type I have oily skin. I never used to be a huge fan of moisturizers but I am coming around. I have acne scars that are slowly fading, with large pores on my cheeks. >>MORE…

The Mediheal SQS Midnight Capping Pack is basically a sleeping mask; and a good sleeping mask it is! Everything I have tried from Mediheal seems to have some medical-type twist on its marketing/packaging. I say screw all that and just put this stuff in a bottle. The product is really good, but the packaging is kind of a bother. I…

Erborian. A totally underrated brand. The Erborian Double Mousse Aux 7 Herbs Gentle Cleansing Foam ($28.00) is in the spotlight in this post and I can assure you it makes me feel as good about the brand as their BB sleeping mask. The cleansing foam smells so good — so fresh and so clean; like cucumbers and mint; (like a delicious…

You guys. My skin hasn’t been on its best behavior these days. My hormonal acne leads to aggressive scarring that often makes me feel, quite frankly, like shit. As I am working on my skin, it’s so important for me to remember progress can be tracked when documented, which can help in the me feeling like shit area. I have…

People were going nuts over the Joseon Dynasty Cream a year or two ago and I found out about it quite late. I finally had a chance to buy it on Memebox after much outcry when they discontinued the cream and subsequently brought it back to the masses.

Sometimes, I know right away whether or not I like something. Masks are one of those things I am very quick to judge because you have to slather it on your entire face and sit with it. The Skinfood Egg White Pore Mask almost got the trash bucket, but I gave this multiple chances and it turns out, I actually like…

As much as I love sheet masks, patches have never really agreed with me; it’s probably more like I never agree with them. I suppose a big reason I should probably stop buying patches is because I use them once and that’s it. But that’s just my personality; when it comes to sheet masks, even, I have to really love…

As much as I hate to admit it, I am a sucker for things that smell like honey; more specifically, things that smell like the Papa Recipe Honey Bombee masks. I picked up the Sana Honeyshca All In One Serum and Gel from Everyday Beauty Lab in NYC. I knew it was an empty buy but it smelled so good!…

I really like mists. I like spraying them on my face thinking they are doing something. I like the idea that they actually do something, and they are refreshing right after cleansing.

More Lovemore! I really love when sheet masks fit my face. I always thought I had an average sized face, but sheet masks totally make me second guess that. They almost never fit me. Lately, I have been having good luck in that department. One of those well-fitting masks is the Lovemore Yurong Scattered Amazing White Sheet Mask. This mask…
