Drunk Elephant A-Passioni Retinol Cream Review (One Year Review)

This is probably the 100th review about Drunk Elephant A- Passioni Retinol Cream, but I decided to write another review about this, because if your reading this and you’re still undecided to spend a lot of money on a pricey (overhyped?) cream, I’m sure this short review can help you make up your mind. So…

COSRX AC Collection Acne Line Review

With the emergence of the COVID-19 outbreak, the year 2020 has been a very interesting year so far for an Infectious Disease Specialist fellow-in-training like me. Being overworked and wearing N95 mask almost 24/7, a few zits started appearing on my face, especially on part of my face that touches the mask. I knew I…

Juvia’s Place Nubian Palette Review

Juvia’s Place is a cosmetic brand known for its high-intensity, pigment-rich eyeshadow palettes. I was always curious about this brand because of its positive reviews.

Garnier Micellar Oil-Infused Cleansing Water Review

For the past year, I have been a cleansing oil convert. I love micellar water but there’s something about the “thorough clean feeling’ only cleansing oil can provide. But then again cleansing oils are not perfect, most of them cannot remove my waterproof mascara. And when I try to make them work by rubbing my…

The Ordinary is currently one of the most popular, not to mention controversial, skincare brands out in the market. It’s an award-winning brand known for its simplicity as well as its affordable price. During my trip to Sydney, I found out that they have a Deciem store there so I purchased some of The Ordinary…

The Face Shop Waterproof Cushion SPF50+ PA+++ Review

My general goal for this summer is to be as minimalist as possible in terms of makeup. I want a more natural look for this season so I decided to ditch my mid to high coverage foundations in exchange of lighter ones to achieve a soft dewy look, and I think that cushion foundations might…

What’s in my Makeup Travel Bag: Sydney

Last month, I went on a short trip to Sydney for my cousin’s wedding in Hunter Valley. It was already Autumn in Sydney; the days were still hot and humid while the nights were cool and windy. Because it was just a short visit I tried to pack only the essential stuff. So here’s what’s…
