Sheet Mask Shenanigans: Innisfree vs. Tony Moly vs. Holika Holika (contains aff links)
1:57 AM
Good morning! Today, I'm reviewing three masks that feature pomegranate as a main ingredient, briefly comparing them to each other, and to see how well each performs.
Enjoy!
- innisfree it's real squeeze mask - pomegranate
- holika holika juicy mask sheet - pomegranate
- tony moly i'm real pomegranate mask sheet (elasticity)
Enjoy!
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.

Happy V-day!! Happy Extraterrestrial Culture Day!! I hope it has been a good day, and for most, just another day to appreciate things.
I did a bit of shopping around a some local places and unexpectedly happened to find some Korean skincare items, so here's a mini-haul, under the cut.

While taking a break from the bombardment of various news pieces related to our new """"leader"""" of the country, I was finally putting together a very late post for my December 2016 favourites and realized the items are the same for this month!
Honestly, time got the best of me, with the holidays and setting into a new position at work--I was tired. Enjoy my favourites for both months!

I want to start with Goblin--one of the only two shows I've been into lately! I am a different person after finishing this particular K-drama, just last week. I was so emotionally drained but still in awe; the ending was so fulfilling, in that every single character had an ending and all loose ends were tied. They did have a time skip but the way the story unfolded at the end was so unexpected. I have also never cried so much (besides a breakdown at work!!) at a show.
Equally as exciting: the OST. The fine selection of artists (Punch/Baekhyun, Crush, 10cm, Ailee, Mamamoo & more) invokes such emotion! Every time this song by was played, it was like time stopped and you could barely breathe:
I also really enjoy Hush by 라쎄 린드(Lasse Lindh):
On a related note, Lee Doog Wook's lips are so stunning, especially his upper lip! And so is Yoo In Na's lips; the shape is so cute and I kept wondering what lip products she was wearing...!
In December, Yuri! on Ice!!! had me shook towards the end. But I am relieved, as there will be a second season, despite the slight open-ended finale. I want to know what will happen and I am proud that the writers portrayed Viktor and Yuri as normal, loving characters, without sexualizing their relationship. I'm even interested for anything may develop between Yurio and Otabek!

makeup & skincare
I've done a full review on this cushion in a separate post but I have really been using Holika Holika Gudetama Lazy & Joy Photo Ready BB Cushion, nearly daily--basically since I received this bad boy in the mail. I have found that I am running through the foundation quicker than expected--I may have to repurchase surprisingly very soon.
Also another daily staple for the last two months, Etude House's Precious Mineral BB Cream (Cover & Bright) has been a go-to BB cream for my face. I have also been layering this on top of the HH Lazy & Joy Cushion, to help give a fuller coverage look.
For the past two-ish months, I have used a number of different skincare products but I have definitely been reaching for Etude House's Moistfull Collagen Water Jelly Cream. I love how it's a water based gel cream that is light and isn't sticky, but makes my face soft while providing some hydration.
I am working on a full, in-depth review on this, so stay tuned.
Excuse the short post, but that's all I've basically been loving this month and in December.
Goodnight!

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!

First Impressions Review: Holika Holika x Gudetama Lazy & Joy Face 2 Change Cushion (21 Light Beige) (Pics, Swatches, Experience + Demo)
11:12 PM
Hello all! I'm so excited for this review as I'm a major fan of the Gudes! I finally decided to buy something from Holika Holika's recent eggtraordinary collaboration with Gudetama. I've been high key ecstatic over both collections but hadn't really sat down and decided on what I actually wanted to own in my personal collection (as opposed to just keeping it in a wish or watch list).
やっほ、みんなさ～ん！ぐでたまの大ファンだからこのレビュを書けるのは結構ワクワクしているよ☆最近のホリカホリカさんと「ぐでたま」からのマジカッコよくコラボがやっと何か買って決めた。しかもあまりまだ時間をとって本当に買ってて自分のコスメのコレックションで持って欲しかったかどうかを決定できないと(買わせずに欲しい物のリストにとどまるだけでも両のコラボコレックションがマジすごい有頂天になっていたんだよ！
As I mentioned on my Instagram stories and in the post below, I snatched up a cushion case and one refill (puff included)--it just arrived in the mail yesterday afternoon.
インスタのストリーズと下の更新で、ぐでたまx ホリカホリカの限定クッションケーズとリフィルを注文したり昨日の午後、郵送で受け取れた☆

Over the past couple of months, despite switching a couple of products here and there (excluding ones I had been testing for those 0.8L reviews), I think I've finally managed to narrow down a solid routine with products that actually show results.
I'd thought I'd now share my current routine which includes products that I like, and either have repurchased or plan to repurchase. My routine is kind of short and should include a few more items, but generally I'm living in a constant state of tiredness, so this is enough for now.

Hey guys! Throughout May I've been trying my best to participate in #maymaskmonth. A portion of these are ones that I've used throughout May, and some in the latter half of April.
Seeing as I like a tidy makeup table, I thought I'd whip up a post with some short thoughts and throw! that! trash! out!!!

Hello all! It's been a long and short week, all wrapped into one enigma. Work has been busy, but now it's time to chill and enjoy my two day
I came home from work yesterday to some (incredibly cute) packages in the mail. I ordered from BeautynetKorea, through Amazon on May 8th. I received this package in good condition, on May 25th.
Work has been busy so my de-stressing/coping mechanism is sheet masking when I home, after work. Here's a quick post of my week in sheet masks!
I made the mistake of ordering from TK, around the Thanksgiving/Black Friday period, but I don't regret it.
My order went through relatively quickly, but it felt like AGES until I received it. I ordered November 22nd; the order shipped on November 29th and I just welcomed my beauty-ful box of goodies into my arms, mid-morning on Jan 4th.

There's something so therapeutic about online shopping. Lately, I've been stocking up on some items and thought, why not do another haul post?! Part 1 is here.
I ordered from Amazon on Nov. 9th, from a variety of sellers, and I've received everything about a week to a week and a half later.
- Elizavecca Milky Piggy Carbonated Bubble Clay Mask
- COSRX Acne Pimple Master Patch
- Holika Holika 99% Aloe Soothing Gel
- Ichikami Herbal Hair Treatment Essence with Rice Bran by Kracie
- Kikumasamune Sake High Moisture Skin Lotion
