More than just a lotion – the AMOREPACIFIC Essential Creme Fluid review

The pile of empty bottles and jars were spilling over in my bathroom cabinet and frankly getting kind of gross, which means it’s time for another empties post featuring 25 products from skincare to makeup to body/hair care!

When you’re a fan of a brand, you get excited when they release a new product. And since I’m a big fan of Instytutum’s products, I was excited x2 when I got the chance to try two of their newest products these past few months: the Flawless Age Pads and their just-released Flawless Inner Beauty Ageless Complex Supplements!

Not to sound cliche, but omg it’s 2018! And what better way to start off the new year than to reflect on my favorite skincare products from the past year, right?

2017 has been an incredible year in terms of makeup discoveries, so of course I had to dedicate a whole post to my favorites from this category. Most of these won’t come as a surprise since I rave about them frequently on Instagram, but I’m excited to share them nonetheless!

Anyone who has been an adult for awhile realizes that life won’t always go as you plan it. You’re aware that the good times, happiness, and success, do not come without some struggles, periods of sadness, and failure.

After a disastrous experience with the By Wishtrend Green Tea & Enzyme Powder Wash where my skin pretty much molted, I was in need of some desperate barrier repair. The stars must’ve been aligned because I had just received this cream a few days before and this was the perfect occasion to test it out.

Your birthday only comes around once a year and it’s a day worth celebrating. Sure you may have a busy schedule and funds may even be tight at times, but some things are worth finding the time and money for.

It’s that time of the year when I start doing my favorites series, and this year I decided to include a new category: non-beauty lifestyle favorites! Yes I know this category is ridiculously broad and includes a bazillion products, so you know if something is listed here it’s pretty friggin’ awesome.

A while back I reviewed my experience of creating bespoke serums with Activist Skincare and I mentioned that the Hyaluronic Acid Serum didn’t quite meet my needs. They offered to reformulate it free, and after using the second version, I’m now ready to give this serum the review it deserves.

Usually time flies because there’s a lot going on, and that could definitely be said about 2017, in both good and bad ways. Today’s post is a reflection of these events, an overview of some of my favorite beauty discoveries, and really just a giant post of appreciation with a surprise at the end ;)

Sheet masking can be a real struggle in the winter time. On one hand I’m already freezing my ass off yet here I am slapping a soaking cold cloth on my face, because in the end, nothing hydrates my skin better than a good sheet mask. Oh the things we do for better skin.

When you’re staring in the mirror looking at your makeup-free face are you happy with what you see? Is your skin smooth, soft, glowing, and blemish-free? Or are you dealing with a myriad of issues like pimples, acne scars, discoloration, wrinkles, and other skin imperfections?
