Documenting my Trials and Tribulations with Beauty Products
I’m sure we have all stumbled upon the phrase, “botox in a bottle” at one point or another when looking into The Ordinary’s Argireline Solution 10%. Once again, my curiosity prevailed, and I purchased a bottle of it to see whether or not I notice *something*. I have finally reached the end of The Ordinary’s…
Bioderma Atoderm Intensive Gel-Crème caught my eye while perusing my local pharmacy in the late summer of 2023. The minimal ingredients, the texture, the cooling sensation… I immediately had to pick it up and give it a try before summer was out. 6 months and an almost empty tube later, I thought it was due…
I first tried the Dr. G Clear R.E.D. Blemish Clear Soothing Cream back in 2021 after eyeing it for years and hearing so many positive reviews. I loved it so much, I featured it in my skincare favourites of 2021. I have purchased this cream a second time in 2023, and have yet again featured…
After seeing it a number of times in the beautysphere, I finally caved and purchased Beauty of Joseon Relief Sun: Rice + Probiotics SPF50+ PA++++ at my local DM drugstore. I was missing the cosmetic elegance of Asian sunscreens. Seeing it in front of me, I thought I would finally give Beauty of Joseon Relief…
Last summer, I really enjoyed Avène Very High Protection Sun Cream SPF50+ (Reviewed). It served as a great moisturizing sunscreen – it helped cut down some steps in my skincare routine for the summer while providing broad spectrum protection. This year, I wanted to give Avène Intense Protect SPF50+ a go. It’s in a bigger…
Another “Youtube made me buy it” moment! The Paula’s Choice Resist Super-Light Wrinkle Defense SPF 30 seems to be a popular tinted mineral sunscreen in the beautysphere, and I wanted to give it a try on my acne prone, normal to dry skin. Information on Paula’s Choice Resist Super-Light Wrinkle Defense SPF 30 “A lightly…
…with Ecinachea GreenEnvy! I can’t stop seeing this product on Youtube and Instagram. It was driving me quite mad actually. What is so damn special about Farmacy’s Green Clean Meltaway Cleansing Balm!? I picked it up during Sephora’s surprise summer VIB Sale to find out. CLAIMS Green Clean Makeup Meltaway Cleansing Balm instantly melts…
Back in July, I did Sunscreen Week and reviewed 7 sunscreens. Instead of waiting until I have 7 sunscreens, I thought if I did have one to review, I’ll just review it on Sunday! To kick off this new Sunscreen Sunday Series, I will be starting with Klairs’ new Soft Airy UV Essence SPF 50+…
Seriously, how many of us saw this product and the before/afters circulate our social media feeds? Some By Mi reached out to me to try their very popular AHA/BHA/PHA 30 Days Miracle Toner as well as their Cleansing Bar and H7 Hydromax Cream.
Some By Mi (meaning: Attracted to Beauty) is a popular natural cosmetic Korean Brand that’s all about “Miracle of my skin with good ingredients” (this is their slogan translated to English). 400 thousand of their products sold out within 3 months, and from that popular before/after photo circulating around, their products seem especially catered to those with acne-prone skin.
For this review, I will be more detailed about the 30 Day Miracle Toner because it’s the only information I received in English from the brand. I will do my best to review the other products in this post.
And yes, as the title suggests, there will be a giveaway of all 3 products! Be sure to check out the details at the end of this post. Let’s get on to the review!
I love Cosrx, they’re a very affordable and effective Korean cosmetics brand that really cater to us needy acne-prone skin peeps. So I was really happy to get a chance to review Cosrx’s first makeup product and share my thoughts with you now!
