I can't believe it's New Year's Eve already (in Australia at least) - how was your 2016? Mine revolved around  starting a new university course, then of course I tried my hand at beauty blogging in the latter quarter of the year. Going to Korea was definitely one of the highlights, especially being able to check out the Bigbang A to Z Exhibition before their massive hiatus. I would like to think I've built upon my leadership skills, but my lack of social skills have definitely stayed more or less the same haha.  While I'd like to continue trying the whole 'new year new me' mindset, the older I get the more stubborn I become (I'll still add 'staying flexible and adaptable' to my 2017 resolutions tho). 'New year new skin' isn't a thing; fortunately my daily skincare routine is a process I really enjoy. As makeup played an increasingly greater part in my life this year, so has cleansing and ensuring my skin is healthy and clean befor...

D E A R   P A C K E R    C A M E L L I A   J E J U   F L O W E R Claims According to bbcosmetic.com it is 'for skin to have rich nutrients with tight skin'. Packaging Ingredients provided in English, but the claims weren't translated. I really like the packaging, the colours are very vivid. The mask appears speckled, like the seeds of a strawberry. Fit Not bad, I made some minor adjustments. The eye shape, is downward turned and leaves parts of the undereye area naked. It felt like a soft clooth draped over my face however the chin area often slipped off. Essence 23ml. Thin consistency, akin to a light lotion that sinks in very quickly. It dried down to a slightly tacky finish. Its sweet floral scent smells divine and it lingered for the most part of the masking session (40 minutes). Very little essence remained in the packet. Effects + repurchase Admittedly I was skeptical at first and it only shows how much I underestim...

Where were you on December 13th 2016, 12am KST? In a far away country called Australia, a grown child was sitting in bed, spicy chips in hand freaking out over Bigbang's comeback. TOP's singing part in Last Dance was unexpected (did I start tearing up for a reason I didn't comprehend? Maybe.) but Fxxk It was the real star - loud, funky, clashing colours + catchy chorus + the boys in their delightful weirdness. Now there's no better way to enjoy Bigbang than by binging on their related content, so I'm sharing some snaps from their AtoZ Exhbition that wrapped up earlier this year. It was the last few days of the exhibition when I visited, so there was no queue and I headed straight in. Recordings weren't allowed, so we'll have to make do with photos. The first thing I saw was parts of the wall of the old YG Entertainment building. Before the building had been knocked down fans had signed their well wishes along the walls. Selec...

I watch Youtubers and see IG posts of empties with anywhere from 5-10 empty products at the end of the month. Here I am with 2 measly skincare empties. Am I not skincare-ing properly? Eh, I have fun all the same - and just wait till I get to the mask empties post :3 This month I finally finished off two Klairs products from my first Wishtrend haul. K L A I R S    S U P P L E   P R E P A R A T I O N   F A C I A L   T O N E R Claims? - Hydrates and calms sensitive skin post-cleaning while maintaining optimum pH balance - Brightens skin and is absorbed rapidly (paraphrased from the Wishtrend description) Thoughts? Interestingly I had never heard of the product before I came across Wishtrend via a Youtuber. It was only after I made the purchase that all these rave reviews started popping up, and I can see why. The Klairs Toner was delightful to wake up to. In the mornings I would pour it generously onto a cotton pad and swipe it all over m...
