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…

My biggest skin concern is acne scarring. I am frequently on the hunt for products that claim to lighten unwanted pigmentation. The Hydropeptide Lumapro-C Skin Brightening Pigment Corrector ($148/1 fl. oz.) definitely fits the bill.

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.

When was the last time you were on The Ordinary’s website? Well, they are expanding their range of super affordable and simple skincare products. I frequently go to their site because of their concept. But to purchase? I was on there last night and a few things captured my attention.

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!…

This is another one of those, this mask is amazing posts… FYI A nice helping of 25g for the mask and 2g for the Milkpeel swab

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…

I just love deep discounts. Also skincare. Also masks. Peter Thomas Roth is holding a Buy One, Get One Free Special on five of their masks today through January 2nd, 2017. The only catch is that you must purchase two of the same masks to get the discount. Each mask will come out as half off. Perfect Christmas gift! I’m…

I recently took a much-needed vacation to England and Paris. In England, I was able to visit Nottingham, which would be my primary base, Birmingham, Liverpool, Leicester, and Manchester! I did all of my shopping, which wasn’t much, in Nottingham, a really beautiful, quaint little town. One of these shopping destinations was a Kiehl’s. Now, I know we have these…

For the past few months, I have been using multiple products from Erborian and they are all good. The Sleeping BB Mask ($38.00) is the stand-out product, though, because while it moisturizes and makes my skin feel baby-soft, it also keeps the creeper eczema from appearing on my neck.

Behold this really weird product! It’s by no means new and most people into K-beauty have already tried it. I would say the Elizavecca Milky Piggy Carbonated Bubble Clay Mask ($10.00) would be part of a K-beauty starter pack. Oddly enough, this product has a learning curve.

I am nearly out of my first bottle of Vitamin C Suspension ($5.80) and Alpha Arbutin 2% ($8.90) from The Ordinary, a subsidiary of Deciem, and I reckon it’s time for a report. Vitamin C Suspension Deciem claims that this is pure and stable 23% Vitamin C, an L-Ascorbic Acid powder, in this case. It’s important to note that Deciem markets this…

Retinol is one of those products that need long-term use in order to see the effects of its use (for me anyway). No exception will be made here with the Valentia Night Revive Retinol Serum ($35.00).

This moisturizer is great. Can you tell I like it? Sometimes it’s hard to rate a moisturizer, especially if it doesn’t have any multitasking properties. The Erborian Bamboo Creme Frappee ($43.00) is just a moisturizer that moisturizes your skin. Nothing more, nothing less. I like that the brand doesn’t claim that it does some out-of-this-world thing like make wrinkles disappear.…

As ludicrous as that question sounds, I often find myself with that question in the back of my head and sometimes angry and at the front of it. As a product junkie and beauty blogger, I am always trying new… well, everything. New skincare, new hair stuff, new makeup. I don’t have sensitive skin, and it hardly reacts to anything,…
