Discovering this product made me a huge fan of COSRX! It immediately replaced by beloved CeraVe cleanser. I’ve been using this product consistently for a year now, and it never disappoints! Gentle on skin, cleanses without a trace, and best of all, the right pH to keep your skin healthy. Oh, and guess what? It’s great for all times of the day – not just the morning!

Review: Mizon Original Skin Energy Ampoules: Peptide, Placenta, and Collagen, Oh My!
When did getting older ever become a bad thing? I remember (like it was yesterday!) being a frustrated teenager and counting down the years until I was 18 and officially became an adult. Even in my 20s, I looked forward to my birthday every year. Every year was a step towards my education or career goals. Every year provided more knowledge, more experiences, more adventures, more confidence, and more security!
But now I am officially getting older, and it is not such a good thing anymore. Somehow time has crept up, and I suddenly woke up to find myself in my mid-30s, although I still feel like I’m 25, and often get mistaken for it. I take pride in looking like I’m still in my 20s, and goddamn it, I will maintain it as long as humanly possible! (Without looking like a plastic freak with a pulled-apart face like overstretched mozzarella – you know what I’m talking about.)
Review: Missha All-Around Safe Block Soft Finish Sun Milk
After reading a couple of reviews on Missha’s “sun milk” sunscreens, I was curious to try the “soft finish” one since one of my biggest pet peeves is using a sunscreen that leaves a shiny and/or white cast. Also, I was on the search for a nice sunscreen that could also double as a primer or makeup base.
I had a few problems with it not working well under my BB cream, but after I learned how to blend it together properly, I really learned to love Missha All-Around Safe Block Soft Finish Sun Milk. I know I’ll be trying out other brands when I’m done with this bottle, but I’ll probably go back to this since I really love the way it works with my BB cream to give me a natural, even skin tone and finish!
Review: Nature Republic Super Aqua Max Moisture Watery Cream
So if you read my previous post on Nature Republic’s Combination Watery Cream, you’re probably surprised that I would give anything else in this line a chance. But, I received a sample of this cream from Korea Depart, and opened the sample with trepidation. I was happily surprised with a slight smell of roses coming from this cream (and not the obnoxious Axe deodorant smell that was in the Combination Watery Cream). So I found someone from Hawaii selling a bottle of Nature Republic Super Aqua Max Moisture Watery Cream on Amazon, and I went for it.
The Magic & Method of Korean Skincare
So excited about this post! Korean skincare is having a big moment for the last several months. There are several articles, blogs, and websites in English BUT not so many that I can’t put in my two cents:
