This month I had the pleasure of going to New York with Angela from Beautyandthecat to catch up with her counterpart, Renee. I took this time to stock up on some beauty products as well as explore what’s new in the world of Asian beauty. Here’s my final haul.

I received the Skin79 Waterproof Sun Gel SPF 50+ PA++++ as a gift from my sister. She got it in S. Korea and my lord I cannot find it anywhere here! I have seen the Sun Gel with SPF 50+ PA+++, but the PA++++ seems to have disappeared or not really sold anywhere! I have also seen PA++++ on the…

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…

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…
