OK, so I know it's what's on the inside the counts, but it's also kinda what's on the outside too?

I'm obsessed with TONYMOLY and all of their cute designs. All of the animal shapes, it's just so adorable!!

What other brands should I check out that have fun packaging like this?

What is your lazy day routine like? The one where you are so tired at night, you can barely keep your eyes open. Or so rushed in the morning you don't have time to think. 

I want to know all your shortcuts or multi-purpose products!

Lazy day routine?

Do you tone before or after a wash off mask? Both?

I usually tone before to prep my skin for the mask, but I wonder how much good that does if it also washes off with the mask too.

Toner before or after wash off mask?

I used to swear by face scrubs, but now that I'm more into chemical exfoliants like retinol and glycolic acid etc., are physical exfoliants even necessary?

I haven't really used one in years, outside of the scrubby side of a makeup eraser, but wondering if it's worth it to add one back into my routine.

Are physical exfoliants necessary???

Ah, summer, it’s that time of year I notice just how overgrown my winter woolies got during the cold season. Now, it’s time to let my legs free!

What are your favorite hair removal products outside of the old fashioned razor and cream?

I just started sugaring, and I do love it — but it’s really messy and sticky. Wondering what else is out there that works??? (Bonus if it also is good on sensitive skin)

Favorite hair removal for sensitive skin?

Because it is so thin, you need quite a bit of product to get coverage. That means the product also gets used up a lot faster than you’d expect. And if your skin is on the drier side, this may not provide enough moisture.

The serum is kinda fun as it has teeny tiny little capsules that contain snow mushroom. It’s supposed to give skin a dewy bounce, and I’d say it delivers!! Immediately upon application, I noticed improvement in my skin texture and over time more lasting results. It’s more of an essence texture than serum, so it’s thinner than I expected. That does mean it absorbs very quick, and you can layer other products without getting too greasy. No fragrance either, so another great pick for sensitive skin!

For a real rare moment for me - nothing to criticize. It was amazing! True holy grail status here.

I LOVED this so much!!! My favorite thing was how it smelled. Almost like you could eat it. But, it did keep my skin plumped and primed for the rest of my routine. My tight and sad winter skin got just the care it needed. I let my husband use it, and he has *very* sensitive skin. He loved it too!!

I wish there were some way to store the little spatula it comes with. Like a notch on the lid or something. It's really easy to lose! This also doesn't emulsify quite as much as others. And I did need more product than I expected to fully cover my face.

This brand just keeps coming in with luxury-quality products at a drugstore price. This cleansing balm is perfect and lightweight. It's so buttery and slick. It melts into the skin and cleans without stripping away moisture. I use it as a first step to dissolve SPF before I use a cleanser.

There aren’t many cons! But it doesn’t have SPF, so you will need to layer that on top. If you have oily or combo skin, look for an oil controlling or matte option as it may be too much moisture with the cream. Or use it as a night cream! 

I LOVE niacinamide; especially during these oily summer months. The deep sea pure water cream is pure magic. It’s hydrating while it also controls oil. It’s a holy grail ingredient if you have combo or oily skin. The cream gave my skin a beautiful dewy glow. I loved that it didn’t have any fragrance at all, so it’s a perfect pick if you have sensitive skin.

The essence smells SO GOOD, I hoped this cream would too. It didn't; which if that's the only negative to it, this is a holy grail for sure!

Where to even start? Everything was amazing about this product. It has a gel like consistency that just soaked right into my dry winter skin. It's been so uncomfortable lately - this was an instant cure! It didn't feel sticky, and it didn't get greasy throughout the day. This is such a wonderful product!
