Hello everyone. I've had a string of long weeks as of late, where the days just roll into another and I feel so tired. My escape lately has been to diligently do enough of my routine before I collapse on my bed and keep myself hydrated. It's not enough, but it feels like the bare minimum right now.
I thought I'd share my current skincare routine and how I'm enjoying the products and how they are working for me, including for my hands. I do use other products in place of those ones mentioned in this post, but these are specifically the products I stick with, time and time again.

It's that period of time where I gather my mask empties and talk about my trash! Here's some of the masks I've used recently, including a good amount from during the November mask challenge, over on Instagram. I've used a variety of brands, flavors and from a couple different countries!
There are a few that were received in exchange for an honest review so those will be marked in bold and an asterisk (*). For the masks that I had talk about on IG, I'll include those posts (in no particular order) plus some quick thoughts, under the cut!

Basically,.....my Christmas kind of....sucked. Some life stuff got in the way (the same old shit) but that aside, here's the stuff I bought myself (except for the CatDog boxset).
I posted on Instagram (below) about these same items but since I took additional photo beforehand too, so...enjoy!
I bought some items from sephora.com, and in doing so, renewed VIB status.

Hello all! It's the time of the month where I reflect on what I liked/used the most in the previous month! Here's my favourites from November.
Here's a short post of my mini-haul from Sephora, from around my birthday a few weeks ago now. I went to Tacoma Mall and picked up a couple of things:
First, enjoy both DEAN and Crush's beautiful vocals in this song:
Hello, guys! As always, work has been super busy for me as of late! I've been relaxing and rewatching both seasons of Chihayafuru over the past few days. It makes karuta looks interesting but I really don't think I'd have the stamina to play matches--it looks like so much fun, though. The anime is really well done but I'm still hoping for a third season...I want to see what happens!!
I thought I'd whip up a quick review of the Dr Jart+ Dermaclear Trans-foam Clay as I'm almost at the end of my tube and well...it's now or never.
I had picked up a tube for from Sephora, in an online haul a good few months ago, around when I made VIB status (so it's been a little while, ahaha!!). At the time, I paid USD$15 for a 50ml / 1.7 fl. oz. tube and I chose the "moisturizing pink" version as it seemed like the best choice for my thirsty af skin.
I thought the idea of a clay mask that becomes a foam when mixed with water was pretty cool and was curious about the performance.

I've discovered that I've actually been using up more products than I had realised, so it's time for an AB edition of "trash talk": where I talk about my empties, do a quick review and then can throw out my trash. Enjoy!!
Sephora haul - Part 1
I bought:
-Too Faced Natural Matte palette
- Dr Jart+ Dermaclear Trans-foam Clay (Pink) - 50ml
- Urban Decay all nighter Makeup Setting Spray - 30ml
This would be my first Too Faced palette and I have to say, I'm so excited! I'm hoping that because the eyeshadows are matte, that they will blend nicely and stay on my eyelids..since I have a lot of trouble with shimmer in my eyeshadows.

Here's a quick post of my Sephora mini haul! This order pushed me over and I've been bumped up to VIB status. Cool, right...?

I also used the code "KBEAUTY" to get another mini product with my order (shown in the few couple of pictures). This time, I chose a mini size of Erborian
Pâte au Ginseng Black Concentrated Mask because I've been pretty curious about the mask, but I definitely don't want to fork out $$$ for the full size yet, certainly not without trying it first.
Hello, everyone! 💕 Today is part one of a recent online haul from Sephora.com. 💕💕
I saw in the last few months that I was $88 away from making VIB, and I figured I would push to try to make the new status. After a week (honestly!) of careful deciding and rearranging various items in my cart after some items were out of stock, I finally made a $50 order (before receiving the BI $15 off $50 card in the mail), on December 4th. I received the order in the mail a few days later.

Hello, all!! I've been pretty busy with work (and also buying things on Amazon, ahaha!)
皆さん、こんにちわ！最近、 結構バイトとかを忙しかったら久しぶりですね！（それもアマゾンさんから色んなことを買っていたんだ。）
I'm obviously a little late blogging about this, but in addition to ipsy, I also recently subscribed to Birchbox, and I just received my August box yesterday morning, before work (along with some other very exciting things!)
もちろんその更新はちょっと遅れたのに、ipsyという毎月のビューティボックス応募サービスだけでなくをBirchboxの毎月のボックスも登録しましたが、今朝バイトを行ってくるの前に（他のことも）８月のボスックを届けました
