This month should have been a pretty wild one for opening products, since Santa brought so many goodies. Instead, it seemed like half of what I opened had been on hand for a while, another was a splurge I made in November that just arrived, and only ONE THING came from Santa. In poor Santa’sContinue reading “January Openeds Review”

January Empties Review
This is possibly an empties record, which is easy to set when your skincare life practically revolves around minis: two cleansers, two masks, one toner, one serum, one moisturizer, one facial oil and one first essence. Products are listed in the order that I finished them this month.
An Incomplete Introduction to Hydrating Toners
I LOVE TONERS. SO MUCH I currently have all of these pictured above in rotation, and honestly my skin has never looked or felt better. If you haven’t gotten on the hydrating toner train yet, I 110% encourage and endorse it, regardless of your skin type. Specifically for dry skin in a dry place, IContinue reading “An Incomplete Introduction to Hydrating Toners”

Any style of container that really increases your joy when using a product? Or do you evenContinue reading “Skincare Aesthetics”
November Empties Review
New month means a new batch of empties to share. Here’s what I finished up in November:
Sucker for Snail
I love snails. I loved playing with them when I was little, now I love putting their mucin on my face. I think it’s great that so many brands have figured out how to benefit from these little critters in a cruelty-free way. These are all the snail products I have. Any others you’d recommend?Continue reading “Sucker for Snail”
Seven Skins for Success
I finally did it. I did 7 skins! Been doing 4 layers for a while but decided YOLO. Two layers of everything but the wee Cosrx toner. Definitely found myself needing less by the last layer.
