How To Keep Sensitive Skin Happy

If you don’t already know, I pretty much have the world’s most sensitive skin. I’m super light and pretty much everything I do to my skin has an immediate effect. This can go either in my favour, or really, really not. After a love-hate relationship with it over the years, I feel like I’ve learnt…

More Products I Finished (aka Revenge of the Empties)

Just before I left Korea, I found a stash of empties in my cupboard but didn’t have time to film a video or really do anything with them. But I had worked long and hard to finish these products, so I wasn’t about to let that go unnoticed, dagnabit! So, I took a quick pic…

Home Cooking in Korea

Hi friends! Today I want to talk to you about something a bit novel for me, and that is cooking. Yes, this is a post where I am going to become a cocky SOB and tell you just how “easy” it is to cook in Korea if you just “try”. Well, I’m not 100% sure…

My Odd Fascination with Britney Spears

Hi friends, Here’s a fun fact for you: a few years ago I binge-watched Britney and Kevin: Chaotic. This is not something I’ve told anyone (except maybe Gav), because it’s really strange. Do you even know what I’m talking about? I don’t think many people would, and that is a very good thing, because this was not…

Hi friends! Okay, I know what you’re thinking with this one: seriously Steph, July favourites? Well, yes. It just so happens that I have a whole bunch of videos tucked away on my harddrive that have never seen the light of day… until now. I wasn’t going to bother uploading it, but I figured that…

Hi everyone! So we are back with another Sample Sundays, as promised, and today I am bringing you a mini review of a Missha product that I had never used before. To be honest, when I first arrived in Korea, Missha didn’t interest me too much. I thought the lights were a bit glary (they…

I Think I’ve Died and Gone to Thailand

Hi friends, I am writing this to you from my plush, enormous bed in a Krabi resort. I promised myself I wouldn’t be smug in this post, except I’ve already broken that promise (and I didn’t actually make that promise anyway… uh oh). But in my defence, I am completely in awe of this place called…

The Liebster Award!

Hi friends, So a little while ago I was kindly nominated for a Liebster Award by the lovely Rose. She runs a super cute blog which features a lot of Korean cosmetics (to my utmost delight). For any of you that don’t know (including me, until I received Rose’s message), the Liebster Award is basically…

VIDEO: My First (Filmed) Nature Republic Haul!

Hi friends! Long time no see, eh? Sorry I’ve been a bit AWOL (again)… in actual fact, I’ve been plotting this post for a while now because it’s something a bit special: my first Nature Republic haul video! As y’all well know, I have had many a haul in my holy grail Korean store, but…

My Type of Feminism: Neither Shaken, Nor Stirred

Hey friends, Happy International Women’s Day! Today I thought it would be fitting to touch on something perhaps a bit serious, a bit studious, maybe even a little bit… scandalous?! And that is the often contentious subject of FEMINISM. Run for ye lives lads! Arghhhhh the she-wolves are a-comin’! (*ahem* Just saying what we’re all thinking!…
