Where’s my #BTSArmy at? You’d think I’d be too old to be stanning boy bands but then I watched the BTS Carpool Karaoke, and down the rabbit hole I went. But seriously though, these guys deserve all the hype – they are so hardworking, talented, yet still down to earth, not to mention hilarious. Between Run BTS, BTS Bon Voyage, and their catchy music, I have my quarantine entertainment covered.
My favorite Laneige Cream Skin Refiner but in mist form! Love the extra hydration this provides.
The mandelic + lactic + salicylic acid blend is gentle but has made my skin smoother and my pores look smaller than any other AHA serums I’ve tried!
So pricey but so worth it. This gives me healthier, smoother, and more refined skin that glows! Reviewed here.
Coming from using tretinoin in Curology, this feels super gentle in comparison. Plus it’s full of my favorite ingredients: peptides, ceramides, and fatty acids!
