Review: Mumuso White Camellia Water Petal Flower Toner

Korea is a treasure trove of beauty products and I’m quite happy that some of the best Korean beauty brands have entered the local market. I’m a fan of Korean makeup but not much when it comes to skin care. As you know, I can be pretty particular when it comes to things that I… Continue reading

Review: Naturals By Watsons Argan Oil Lip Balm
I hate drinking water. Yes, not drinking enough water is bad for you and in my case, it made my skin extremely dry. My lips are so parched, they crack and bleed sometimes.

Review: Origins Make a Difference Plus + Rejuvenating Treatment
Aging suck so in an attempt to delay the inevitable, I use Origin’s Make a Difference Plus+ rejuvenating treatment! Before this, I was a fan of Clinique’s classic Dramatically Different+ face cream, the one with the new gel formula. I loved that moisturizer, to be honest (and at some point, I will start re-using it again)… Continue reading

So I was in the city last weekend (which turned out to be an interesting trip indeed) and I took that opportunity to get more of the skin care products I use on the daily. The first stop was in Beauty Bar Galleria for the retinol-based serum that I love. And then it was off… Continue reading
