Morning lattes are essential...

TonyMoly Latte Art Milk Tea Morning Pack

I think it's safe to say that TonyMoly is my favorite Korean brand. This facial pack is yet another win. It's a thick cream meant to be used in the morning before makeup. (I use it on no makeup days too though.) TM says it will moisturize, soothe irritation, de-puff and give a smooth, primed surface for makeup. And guess what? It does! I warm a small blob between my hands, smooth it on until it feels liquidy and then pat it a little. I wait about 5min for it to absorb all the way before I use EH Goodbye Pore Ever essence and then BB.

The cream is a pale tan (like milky tea), has a cool, instantly soothing feel on my sensitive skin, and absorbs with zero residue left behind. It used to come in a super-cute coffee mug-shaped container, like all the Latte Art line, but now it's a tube which is less cute but way more practical. Honestly, if I didn't already have scrub and pore treatments that I love I'd want to try the whole line! 

The best toner EVER...

 Ok. I've always thought of toner as a cleansing thing. It gets rid of excess oil, traces of makeup, might help breakouts. Definitely to be used sparingly if you suffer from The Dry.

OMGOMGOMG...

This is miiiiiiine! I feel all fancy-designer-kawaii wearing Funky Catzterz for Japan LA. And like a crazy-cosmic-catlady which is all kinds of awesome.

 

 

 



A hit and a miss for Skinfood pt 1...

Skinfood Wildberry Cleansing Cream (Moist)

Skinfood Black Sugar Mask Wash-off

Skinfood Wildberry Milk Cleansing Cream is the moisturizing option from the Milk line. There's also a Green Tea Milk (Fresh) for oily skin. Now, this product works great- it removes all makeup including waterproof mascara which makes it more effective than TM Broccoli Sprout.

But, it's not nearly as enjoyable to use. Instead of melting into a natural-feeling oil on my face it feels more like a slick of silicone. I don't know why either because I'm pretty certain they have the same main ingredients. It also smells plasticky to me, and increases my blackheads. Do not want. On the other hand...



A little haul...

 

Here's a recent little haul...the pic is horrid but I love the Tonymoly perfume ears peeking over LOL.

*whew* That name is looooooong. But descriptive! Appletox is an exfoliant cream that contains apple polyphenols and other extracts to remove dead skin. It's like Pretty Feet & Hands...for your FACE. So awesome.
