    Purito Comfy Water Sun Block | The Best Mineral Sunscreen

    I think it’s well established that searching for the perfect sunscreen will likely result in the feeling of wanting to rip your hair out… But seriously, searching for the perfect sunscreen is a personal journey that will likely have many twists and turns.

    Keep Cool And Soothe Bamboo Toner and Serum Review

    New releases in K-beauty are always an exciting thing, but many new releases have not lived up to their hype (Cosrx, I’m looking at you). But recently I discovered a new-to-me and relatively new-to-the-scene brand, Keep Cool, and their Soothe Bamboo Toner and newly released Soothe Bamboo Serum. And I’m excited! As someone who tests…

    Essential Oil Free K-Beauty Routine

    I think one of the biggest questions/controversies in K-beauty these days is the trend of putting essential oils in everything. I consider myself a K-beauty OG (original gangsta). I’ve been rolling strong with my Korean skincare routines for about 7 years and I’ve seen a lot of trends come and go – donkey milk, snail…

    Klairs VS Purito | Sunscreen Showdown!

    The world of K-beauty seems to be hitting it out of the park recently! There used to be a time when you had to look to the world of J-beauty to get your high coverage, cosmetically elegant sunscreens.

    Eco Face LED Light Therapy Mask | Is It Worth It?

    How do you feel about this whole LED, light therapy trend that’s happening in the skincare world right now? I have to admit they make for a scary (therefore funny) Instagram selfie! But on the whole, I must admit, I’ve thought these devices to be quite gimmicky. Especially because they are so expensive! I mean,…

    3 Ways to Take Care of Your Under Eyes

    They say that you can tell someone’s true age by their neck or the backs of their hands. And those are often areas that are neglected when it comes to skincare. But if I were to clock someone for their age, the first place I’d look is the eye area. I’m obsessed with eye care.…

    Best Places to Shop for K-Beauty | Safe and Authentic

    There’s something special about K-beauty. No matter what draws you in (ingredients, packaging, something from another country) you can’t deny that having some Korean skincare products on your shelf can give you the warm and fuzzies.

    Krave Great Barrier Relief

    Barrier care is extremely important to me, as you may already know. I’m practically obsessed with all things barrier, from healing a damaged barrier to maintaining a strong barrier function, I’m the barrier queen!

    3 K-Beauty Sunscreens For Every Budget

    When I was figuring out my very first 10-step Korean skincare routine (why it had to be 10 beats me, but it did), the one product I struggled the hardest to find was sunscreen. Sunscreen is a bit of an elusive product for some of us because we all know we should be wearing it,…

    How and When to Start Your Well-Aging Skincare Routine

    There are a lot of misconceptions out there about anti-aging. Some include that it’s harsh and extreme, products labeled “anti-aging” are only for dry skin, or that you have to be a certain age to start anti-aging products.
