2016 is over and so is December. This month, I had the opportunity to try a few new products, since I am visiting family. So, without delay, here are some of my favourite things from December.
1) Essie "A Cut Above" Nail Polish: Recently, I've become more and more bothered by dark nail polishes, while lovely, will chip almost immediately. This nail polish is a clear nail polish with a pinky gold glitter. This polish allows me to be less concerned whether or not the nail polish has chipped, which is nice when you don't have the time to do a weekly manicure. I think this would be a decent choice when you go on holiday.
2) Annemarie Borlind "Facial Firming Gel": One thing I love about going home is the opportunity to try different European beauty products I don't find in the United States. One of them is this firming gel from Germany. I how it makes my skin tightens and how soft my face feels after patting this on my face. There is a fresh scent to it but isn't too overpowering.
3) belif "The true cream - moisturising bomb": In Korea, much like the East Coast, the weather now is cold and dry. I love it, but my skin does not. I forgot to bring a moisturiser and had to borrow my mom's. I love it so much I ended up getting on myself. Unlike other moisturisers, this moisturiser really sinks into your skin without giving you a heavy feel. It lasts for a very long time without making your skin oily. If you have dry skin or if you skin is lacking in moisture due to the winter, this is a great product to try. I use it both in the morning and night and I've not had a break out with it. I know they sell this at Sephora so definitely give it a go if you're looking for a new moisturiser.
4) belif "Peat miracle revital serum concentrate": I was at the duty-free and there was a special where if you buy three products you get a big discount, so I decided to try the serum. I love to use it in the daytime as it is so light and does not feel sticky or slick, which is a wonderful thing in the evening, but not so much in the morning. If you're looking for a really moisturising serum, this is not for you, but if you're looking for a serum that gives you a light layer of moisture, this serum does the trick. The smell is an earthy smell, hence the peat, but it isn't overpowering and can be pleasant. It's feels as if they really did use peat and I love how much my skin loves it in the morning.
5) innisfree "apple seed cleansing balm": Much like how I forgot to bring a moisturiser, I also forgot to bring my cleansing balm. When I was at the innisfree store buying the no-sebum powder, I also ended up getting this as well. I love the smell of it, it smells like apples, and it does its job of taking away my makeup. Unlike the skinfood cleansing balm, which I did not particularly enjoy, this balm does not sting your eyes. If you have sensitive skin around the eyes like me, I highly recommend this balm.
6) 맛있는녀석들: Known as the "Tasty Guys" in English, this has been my GO-TO show when I've been home. I love this show so much. They eat so much and when they lose the game to get the food they are so angry. I know that anger. Also, they have the best catch-phrase: "한입만~~" which mean "All in the mouth." If you haven't watched this show, WATCH IT. But don't watch it when you're hungry or you'll be like me, eating shrimp chips and salivating over everything they eat.
I also am trying some new products and I can't wait to review them for you. Do let me know if there are any products you'd like for me to review.
