Want to know whether you should try a product? Read my reviews to help make a decision.

Review: Sulwhasoo Timetreasure Invigorating Sleeping Mask
I'm upset. I'm upset to have fallen in love with a product. I haven't been this upset since the last time I fell in love with a lavishly priced Sulwhasoo mask, the Sulwhasoo Concentrated Ginseng Renewing Creamy Mask, and that was back in 2017.

I Got Snail on My Eye: COSRX Advanced Snail 92 All In One Cream as Eye Cream
One night a few months ago, a terrible thing happened. I went to put on my eye cream--at the time, I was using the Su:m37 Secret Repair Concentrated Eye Cream--and discovered that I'd scraped the entire jar empty. I further discovered a distinct lack of other eye creams in my beauty product black hole of [...]
Review: My Beauty Diary Moisture Power Brightening Black Pearl EX+ Mask
There are brands so familiar that despite regular use, I hardly ever think about reviewing them anymore. I take them for granted and project my shameful lack of appreciation on everyone else, too.
