Georganic Goat Milk Brightening Cream Review

For years I thought that having combination/oily skin meant I didn’t need to use any creams. I was definitely wrong. Now that I understand better how hydration and moisture locking work, I appreciate a good moisturizer, especially at night. It’s a key element to keeping the wonderful moisture of toners and essences locked in. Geogranic Goat Milk Brightening Cream has been a part of my evening routine for some time. I have paused to try other products, but always came back to

Buricl Tone Up Brightening Pure Pack Review

I’ve been slowly transitioning from daily sheet masks to wash off masks (I see wash off masks as being less wasteful in terms of packaging; they also take up less space). The Buricl Tone Up Brightening Pure Pack promises a brighter skin tone in just three minutes. It also has hydrating and nourishing effects. This mask is sold on eBay. This product is 7-free, meaning it doesn’t contain seven potentially harmful/controversial ingredients, such as parabens, mineral oil, BHT, ph

Secret Key Pink Racoony Hydro-Gel Eye & Cheek Patch Review

This post contains affiliate links. I love patches! Korean beauty products (and any other ones, really) rarely produce immediate results, but patches usually do. And the effects get better and better the more you use them. The Secret Key Gold Racoony patches are quite internet famous, but for me they didn’t work at all - I hated everything from the awkward shape to the parabens in the ingredients and ended up tossing most of the contents of the box in the trash (and I’m usual

By Wishtrend Mandelic Acid 5% Skin Prep Water Review

When it comes to exfoliating acids, I’m a huge skeptic. I have no doubt that they work, but at what cost? Strong peels and exfoliants lift away the top layer of the skin and create a smoother, more evenly toned complexion. However, doing so repeatedly creates what some refer to as “acid face”, as in thin, unhealthy-looking skin that eventually becomes quite uneven in both tone and texture as it tries to compensate for the over exfoliation done to it. Often, people who overdo

Laneige White Plus Renew Original Essence Review

The Laneige White Plus Renew line has won the Top 50 Global Beauty Award. It’s meant to brighten and make the skin tone more even while also providing hydration. It's available on eBay and Amazon. Active ingredients: Saururus chinensis - a brightening agent with antioxidant and antibacterial effects.

Beaucros Rose Mask Pack Review

I’ve been sheet masking like crazy this month, I think it’s been a mask a day… But it helps me relax and it’s better than stuffing my face with food out of boredom, right? Plus, beautiful skin is never out of fashion. As if June wasn't stressful enough already, I also managed to throw out my back and am just now finally moving relatively pain free (it’s been 5 days). Recently, I pulled the Beaucros Rose Mask Pack from one of my Facetory boxes (if you want to learn more about

Welcos Egg Tightening Cleansing Foam Review

I bought this cleansing foam mostly for my husband, but as you may remember from this review about skincare for men, he’s not necessarily the best at describing cosmetics. So I had to test it on myself as well. The Welcos Egg Tightening Cleansing Foam promises to gently wash away dirt and oil without stripping the skin, all while making the pores less noticeable. Sounds good - husband has some impressive pores, and there’s no limit to perfection when it comes to my own. This

Duft & Doft Pink Milk Mask Review

Hi, my name is Lucy and I despise all things pink. I’m so anti-pink, in fact, that I often got “your boy is so cute” when my daughter was a baby because she had no pink clothes at all. I just thanked people and moved on with my day. Oh, but how could I not at least try this pink mask with all of its lovely claims? The package, the sheet mask, and the essence are all PINK. This mask is trending in Korea right now, and that says a lot, since there are hundreds of brands and mas
