I was a skeptic of facial mists for a long time until I became a huge fan of Missha’s First Treatment Essence Mist. The mist worked so well for me, I set out on a campaign to try other mists to see if I would see any differences in my skin, as I had with the Missha mist. One thing…

When I bought the SNP Gold Collagen Ampoule Mask (~$3.00), I wasn’t expecting it to have actual gold in it. Well, it does; little gold flecks, in fact! SNP Gold Collagen Ampoule Mask

I’m not usually one to fall for infomercials… but I fell for it. I saw an infomercial for IT Cosmetics Your Skin but Better CC Cream with SPF 50 first at home, and then on a plane. I took that as a sign that I needed it! I was delighted when I saw that it was offered in a tone…

I have been using Mizon’s Snail Recovery Gel Cream for three months now and it’s time for a report. What makes me most happy about this product is that it has been three months and I still haven’t run out ๐ I’m a little bit over halfway through with it. I use it every single morning and most times at…

Leaders Insolution… leader is a great term for this mask because it was amazing! Well, let me not overdo it. The Leaders Insolution AC Clear Treatment Mask ($1.99) could use some help in the fit area but everything else about this mask was fantastic. Btw, KJ doesn’t endorse the mask but she probably would if she used it ๐ Leaders…

Today I bring you a review of OZ Naturals Matrix 6 Mega Bright Eye Gel ($19.95). I shall never tire talking about my eye bags until I go get them filled with something. Until then, I will forever search for a topical solution! Our highly effective eye gel formula is packed with ingredients that deliver including Haloxyl for dark circles,…

This is one bad ass sheet mask… In my defense, it’s in Korean so I really had no idea it was called “Ultra Whitening” until I looked it up. Still, anyone who is familiar with sheet masks knows that their effects last a day or less. Again, I’m not trying to whiten my skin but I do like it brighter.…

To jump right in, the Skinfood Lemon Brightening Morning Cleanser has proven one valuable lesson: everything that glitters ain’t gold. When I saw “lemon” in this cleanser, I jumped on it because my skin normally responds well to skin care with lemon in it. Well, this one was curious to me. I tried and tried to convince myself that this…

I hope I’m not late to the party, but if I am, it’s totally new to me! I can’t even remember what I was trolling for — I think cucumber sheet masks — when I happened upon Forever 21’s beauty section. I raised an eyebrow when I saw Holika Holika and Peripera amongst the products! Courtesy of Forever21.com

My skin is in awful shape right now. And of course that happens just when I start to feel good about it (side eye). I had a major breakout roughly a week ago, and it wasn’t acne. I’m not sure what it was; the dermatologist says some kind of contact dermatitis which makes sense (I guess) because I have been…

Retinol has been around for ages. For me, it’s been a very mysterious substance. I feel like every time I go get a beauty service, I see signs everywhere warning me to let my esthetician know if I have used any retinols. I have always wondered why exactly that even matters. Well, Retinol, in short, is a form of Vitamin…

Look at the kitty stretch and be merry! First off, I love the packaging of the Naruko Peptide Purrty Kitty-Eye Lifting Eye Mask! The name of the mask could be abbreviated some, but on to the review! Naruko Peptide Purrty Kitty-Eye Lifting Eye Mask

I have been holding off on reviewing the Holika Holika Soda Pore Cleansing BB Deep Cleansing Oil for some time now, really because I have been trying to find a place for it in my skincare regimen. To start, I have pretty oily skin, with my t-zone being the most oily. This subsides a bit during the winter months, but…

Now this mask was a surprise. I thought it was hydrogel, but apparently… skin gel is not hydrogel. It’s some cotton-gel hybrid alien skin. Kidding about the alien part, obviously. That said, this mask had some pros and it had some cons. And at the end of the day, the Ostia Snail Jade Pure Essence Skin Gel Mask ($4.99) was…

This morning I jolted out of bed with memories of the previous day when a colleague of mine pointed out a difference in the appearance of my skin… Not anything bad, just a difference. It instantly reminded me of how my skin hasn’t been the same since that massive forehead sunburn. I remembered how much I liked the last Lemon…

I love bubble baths. I mean I really, really love bubble baths. It can be 90 degrees out, and if I’m in the mood for a bath I’ll have one. Other than Lush’s bath bombs and bubble bars, I really haven’t found anything that actually produces long-lasting bubbles that make me feel like a pretty princess. Photo: www.tOrange.us

Sephora is running Beauty Appreciation Week, awarding Beauty Insiders twice, three times, and four times the points depending on the level of membership you have (I’m VIB). I went in to pick up necessities: my staple mascara Lancome Hypnose Drama mascara in Excessive Black and an Urban Decay 24/7 Waterproof liquid eyeliner in Perversion; in addition, I walked out with…
