Naruko AMPM RX10 Peptide Total Defense Sunscreen SPF50
My combination skin loves the texture of this sunscreen, it’s lightweight and absorbs instantly, leaving a natural finish with minimal shine. It contains both chemical and physical UV filters, as well as peptides which help further protect your skin. Excellent daily sunscreen for those who spend most of their time indoors.
C+I Deco Fanfare Statement Pendant Necklace
I love the mix of gold and silver hardware in this statement piece, plus its simple silhouette makes it easy match with any outfit. I wear mine with a simple black top which makes the piece really pop!
Tom Ford Eyeshadow Quad – Disco Dust
The quality of this eyeshadow palette blows every other eyeshadow I own, including Dior, Urban Decay, and Lancome. The powder is very fine, well packed, and very pigmented. The shades in Disco dust is absolutely beautiful, especially if you have light warm skin tone. It’s no wonder this is a favorite of Chinese & Taiwanese bloggers.
Tom Ford Sheer Cheek Duo – Paradise Lust
This was love at first application when I got a makeover at the Tom Ford counter in Nordstrom. The top highlighter is a gorgeous rose gold that instantly makes your cheekbones pop with a natural sunkissed glow, while the blush is a lovely rose shade that’s universally flattering. This has been my go-to cheek combo for the past 2 months.
Lancôme L’Absolu Rouge – 264 Peut-Etre
A totally underrated but gorgeous lipstick – it’s hydrating, pigmented, and has the perfect dusty rose shade that Kim Go Eun wore on the K-drama “Goblin”. Plus it has the coolest click to open lid. Much love.
Marc Jacobs Beauty Highliner Gel Eye Crayon Eyeliner
This eyeliner is the real deal: smudge-proof, water-proof, super pigmented, and easy to apply. Plus it comes in 37 gorgeous shades with matte and shimmer finishes. I’m personally obsessed with the shade Earthquake, a beautiful matte dark brown.
