    Sulwhasoo Snowise Brightening Mask Korean Skincare Review

    May 21, 2020 / 0 Comments

    Sulwhasoo is a popular Korean brand that has a uniquely holistic approach to beauty and skincare. They focus on finding and addressing the cause of skin problems, as well as treating visible symptoms. Their beautiful products are infused with natural ingredients, including traditional Korean herbal medicine. Sulwhasoo was kind enough to send me their Snowise Brightening Sheet Mask, so I thought I'd share a quick review with you today!

    Iope Derma Gentle Cica Cream And Pro Peeling Soft Gel Korean Skincare Review

    May 18, 2020 / 0 Comments

    According to Iope, a popular Korean skincare brand, our skin can get stressed from seasonal change, stress, lack of sleep, and/or even trying too many products. I can relate so hard to this right now! Stressed skin means breakouts, roughness in skin texture, loss of elasticity and so much more. Their recommendation is to go back to the basics, by gently exfoliating and cleansing, then hydrating and calming the skin. Iope was kind enough to send me their Pro Peeling Soft Gel and Derma Gentle Cica Creme to do just that!

    May 13, 2020 / 1 Comment

    It has been almost two years since my last blogpost detailing my nighttime skincare routine (read here), so I figured we were long overdue for an update. As a reference, my skin type is very dry with hyper pigmentation and dark spots left over from hormonal breakouts. I am always rotating my skincare routine and trying new products that promise hydration and brightening.  The following products make up my current night time skincare routine.

    Thank You Farmer Korean Skincare Review : Cleansing Water, Gel Cleanser, Toner

    March 22, 2020 / 0 Comments

    Occasionally, Boxycharm hosts their Boxy PopUp Shop, which offers many makeup, skincare, haircare, and lifestyle products at steep discounts.  Naturally, this has my name written all over it.  During one of their recent sales, I was able to order some skincare products from Thank You Farmer, a Korean skincare brand that was completely new to me.  I decided to venture into the brand starting with their Cleansing Water, Gel Cleanser, and Milky Toner.  I've been incorporating all three products into my daily skincare routine for over a month, so I have a pretty good idea of how each performed with my dry skin.  Please read on to see my rating…

    March 20, 2020 / 0 Comments

    Happy Friday, everyone!  Today, I’m sharing with you my review of March’s Boxycharm Premium!  March offers a unique box as it is a first time brand collaboration with Fenty Beauty by Rihanna!  Instead of the usual Boxycharm Premium which includes 6-7 full-sized items for $35/month from multiple brands, this is entire box of products curated by Fenty Beauty.  You can find my review on February’s Boxycharm Base here and Boxycharm Premium here.

    COLAB Dry Shampoo Review

    March 11, 2020 / 0 Comments

    About a month ago, COLAB Hair was kind enough to send me this amazing PR package, which included a colorful lineup of their cult favorite Dry Shampoos!  Ever since I bleached the living daylights out of my hair, I've been relying heavily on dry shampoo to stretch my time in between washes, in an effort to extend my hair color and give it some much needed time to recover.  So, this seriously could not have come at a better time.

    Hi, y'all!  Today, I'm sharing with you my review of February's Boxycharm!  You can find my review on February's Boxycharm Premium here and January's Base Boxycharm here.  Boxycharm is my favorite beauty subscription box that provides 5 full-sized items for $25/month.  Boxycharm Premium is a tier above the Base box, and provides 6-7 full-sized items for $35/month.  You can subscribe to both the Premium and Base box simultaneously, and receive different items in each box.  What I like about Boxycharm is that the value of all the luxury products always well exceed the price (sign up here).

    Murad Retinol Youth Renewal Skincare Review : Eye Serum, Skin Serum, Night Cream

    February 12, 2020 / 0 Comments

    Founded in 1989, Murad was introduced as the first brand of clinical skincare products, setting a new standard for high performance skincare.  Dr. Murad's vision was "to bring skincare professionals of all stripes together to work as a team, using scientifically proven formulas and technologies, to help people achieve the healthiest, most beautiful skin possible". Naturally, I was ecstatic when they were kind enough to reach out with the opportunity to test out their new Retinol Youth Renewal Skincare line!  This trio includes their Eye Serum, Skin Serum, and Night Cream.

    Happy Monday, y'all!  Today, I'm sharing with you my review of January's Allure Beauty Box!  The Allure Beauty Box is a subscription that provides 5 - 6 full/ deluxe-sized beauty products, with a $70+ value, for $15 a month (shipping included).  What intrigued me most about this subscription were the luxury brands offered and that they guarantee at least 2 full sized items in each box.  I've been curious about the Allure Beauty Box for quite some time, so when I recently canceled my Ipsy and Sephora Play subscriptions, I figured now would be a good time to finally give them a try.
