The Reigning Heavyweight Champ: A Beautibi Beauty Box Review

April 17, 2016by Jude Chao 40 Comments

I’m not a beauty box person. I’ll read unboxings and reviews on the blogs I follow, but no box has tempted me since the great Oh Sheet Mask! debacle of 2014. Most of the […]

The Lord of the Herbs: The Fellowship of the Root (Ginseng Megapost)

April 11, 2016by Jude Chao 30 Comments

You’ve heard me talk about it on Twitter. You’ve seen it creeping inexorably, product by product, into my skincare wardrobe. You got a taste of it when I reviewed the L’Herboflore […]

Shop News: Monday Mask Party!

March 14, 2016by Jude Chao 13 Comments

I don’t usually do Instagram review roundups because I like to give you guys different things on different sites. I have a (half-assed but deliberate) system for deciding what goes […]

Tonight's post-cleanse #skincareroutine will take place in bed thanks to a wicked sinus headache. . #NIOD products provided by @deciem. #Haruharu products provided by @haruharu_us. Pillowcase provided by @getdeja. . Cleanse (not pictured): Neogen Calendula cleansing water followed by Hada Labo cleansing foam. . Haruharu Wonder Black Rice Hyaluronic Toner . NIOD Copper Amino Isolate 2:1 #antiagingserum . NIOD Re:Pigment #brighteningserum. I haven't used this long enough to talk about results. I'm in between Shark Sauces, so it seemed a good time to give a different brightening product a shot. . Haruharu Black Rice #antioxidantserum. Light, watery, and pleasantly hydrating. . #Cosrx Advanced Snail 92 Mucin Power Essence because I don't skip snail. . #Tosowoong Pure Deep Sea Water sheet mask, chilled. . While the mask is on my face, I'll massage NIOD Neck Elasticity Catalyst on neck and upper chest. This is promising so far! . Cosrx Advanced Snail 92 All in One Cream as eye cream . Cosrx Ultimate Moisturizing Honey Overnight Mask as final step moisturizer . Also, I've been really enjoying the Deja pillowcase after a few washes softened the cotton up. It's nice to sleep on a clean fresh surface every night! . #kskincare #koreanskincareroutine #pmskincare #skincarediary #skincareregime #abcommunity #beautycommunity #iloveskincare #skincareenthusiast #sexyradish

SOUND UP for this blast from the #rasianbeauty past! . Back in 2014, US #kbeauty fans were all about Mizon. And one of Mizon's products at the time was the Returning Starfish Cream. Despite the pretty heavy grandma scent, this product was WEIRD and DELIGHTFUL and I'm still bitter that it doesn't exist anymore. . Anyway, back then I recorded and uploaded a video of what happens when you jiggle the jar. Enjoy. . #kskincare #abcommunity #skincarecommunity #skincareblogger #koreanskincare #mizon #skincareaddiction #scandalous #naughtynoises #flopflopflop

Simple and light AM #skincareroutine brought to you by a very sexy mini radish. . #NIOD serum provided by @deciem. . Cleanse: #Hadalabo Gokujyun Hyaluronic Acid Cleansing Foam. It's gentle, it's low pH, and the pump dispenses fat clouds of foam. That's all I ask for. . Serum: NIOD Copper Amino Isolate Serum 2:1. I got nothing but love for the CAIS2. After a few weeks, it's already tightened up some flappy areas considerably. It's thin and fast-absorbing, so it only adds a few seconds to my #morningroutine. And I'm fairly sure I'm getting new hairs in parts of my eyebrows that haven't grown hair since 1999. . Moisturizer: #Cosrx Advanced Snail 92 All In One Cream as both #eyecream and #facecream. It makes everything velvety soft. . Sunscreen: A generous application of #Missha All Around Safe Block Aqua Sun Gel on face, neck, and upper chest, then a second layer on upper chest and high points of face. . The mini #sexyradish chopstick stand was a gift from @miss_okapi and the NIOD SPOON was a gift from Angela @beautyandthecat! . #kbeauty #kskincare #koreanskincareroutine #deciem #cais2 #antiagingskincare #summerskincare #morningskincare #easyskincare #iloveskincare #skincareenthusiast #firmingserum
