Green Is Good: Etude House’s Precious Mineral Any Cushion In Magic Mint

A while back, in Korea, I did a bit of haulin’ from G-Market. For those who don’t know, G-Market is the mecca of online shopping in Korea: you can get anything, anytime. As I fell in love with the incredible cushion range that Korea has to offer — I’m talking makeup, not home decor —…

My Current Skincare Heroes Feat. su:m 37, Kiehl’s, Beyond & More

I was just chatting to my bae Sigute the other day, and mentioned how much beauty stuff I brought with me to Malaysia. As a slightly OCD obsessive who gains great joy in the smallest of triumphs, I’m very proud at how much of my beauty stash I’ve worked through. From boxes on boxes and bags of…

My Weird Obsession With Finishing Things

I’ll be honest here: I’ve known for quite a while I have OCD tendencies. I remember as a kid, I would not want to step on the cracks of the pavement because… well, I don’t even know why. I just remember it leading to me taking really big strides balanced with lots of tiny little…

A Long-Overdue Collection of Empties

I’ve previously written about my excessive and arguably unreasonable beauty stash, but I haven’t discussed my progress in a while. Well, I’m sure you’re pleased to know that I’m slowly but surely working through a number of products, and I wanted to share my thoughts on a few that I’ve finished recently. Do note: this is…

Two Body Shop Favourites: Vitamin E Moisture Cream & Mango Body Butter

I’ve always been a fan of The Body Shop. It’s just always been there. I remember being in the store in Southland as a kid, and being so fascinated by all the delicious scents and “flavours” of products. I also remember when they brought out makeup, and they had these incredible bronzing balls that you…

My Bae: Nature Republic The First Essence (Review)

I recently finished one of my favourite products ever: Nature Republic’s The First Essence. I bought this on a whim when I popped over to Korea back in November, and it had been burning a hole in my case/cupboard ever since. Y’all know how much I love Nature Republic. As far as high street brands go,…

Shiny Pretty Things: Nature Republic Botanical Crystal Shadows

When I popped over to Korea back in November, I went absolutely nuts in Nature Republic. I mean, that’s no surprise to anyone, but the issue remains that I seem to have more K-beauty products than sense. There’s bags in bags and boxes on boxes, and I want to make sure I’m appreciate all these pretty…

Two K-Beauty Favourites: Hera & Dear by Enprani

Do you like your skin to feel like silk? If you do, you’re in for a treat. If not… then I advise you to look elsewhere, kind sir. I have two products that I’ve been wanting to talk about for a while now, but I just haven’t — and I can’t let this transgression go…

Bae in a Cushion: Nature Republic’s Nature Origin Cushion CC Natural

If you know anything about me, you’ll know that I love lemon tarts. That is no lie! You know, when I first moved to Malaysia, I was astounded — astounded — at the severe lack of citrus-based deserts here. It’s ridic, and it does not please me. Not one bit. I guess the only saving grace…

My Valiant Trio Of Makeup Removers

Some would say that it’s indulgent to have three makeup removers on the go. To those people, I would say… they perhaps have a point, but it ain’t gon’ stop me. You see, after my journey into the weird and wonderful world of K-beauty, I’ve learnt that it is indeed crucial to remove makeup not…
