No, but seriously, if your skincare life doesn’t include a konjac sponge, you’re missing out on something special. Plus pink ones are actually fantastic for duller, drier skin types (black are best for problem skin types but I tend to use black anyway as they give a good, deep clea).

So, I’m still waiting for that on skincare product that will suck out the nasty blackheads on my nose. Is Philosophy Purity Made Simple Pore Extractor Mask it? Probably not! But seriously, I have tried every single blackhead mask, nose strip, and hot steamer cleanser from all over Asia and none of them have quite eliminated all the pesky blackheads that like to hang out on my nose. I have them extracted manually because nose strips don’t always cut it.
But, my blackheads aren’t your mission today. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to try the new Philosophy Purity Made Simple Pore Extractor Mask and let me know how it goes. I can’t say it, it contains white clay and salicylic acid aka a nightmare cocktail for dry skin. Apparently it’ll draw out dirt, gunk and oil, while scrubbing away those blackheads. Your pores will be sparkly clean and gorgeous again. Apparently, it contains a natural yet potent exfoliating formula to get all the gunk out of your pores.
As for me?
I’ll keep buying Japanese charcoal nose strips and attempt to rip those suckers out of my nose for good!

P.S. My ear worm today is the Kiss Me theme song. Play it a few times, it totally grows on you. There are English subbies around here somewhere, it fits the drama so well.

Unicorns, mermaids, and metallics make their way into your world with the new Tarte Make Believe In Yourself Eye & Cheek Palette ($40) that launched earlier last week for the Summer 2017 season. It’s a long time coming but finally we have somewhat of a rainbow hued palette from Tarte. They are obviously listening because many, many people have asked over and over again when Tarte would release a more colorful palette and that’s exactly what the Make Believe in Yourself Collection is all about! Color!
Now, granted, this palette isn’t all about rainbow hues. Tarte still pops in a few natural shades as well which to be honest, I’m not in the least bit upset about as if nothing at all I love me a good nude, natural shade.
Let’s take a look at my review and swatches of the Tarte Make Believe In Yourself Eye & Cheek Palette!

Belif First Aid 360 Eye Care Mask ($36) has me intrigued at the moment but their suggested use is three times a day. Haha…! So, here’s the deal. This is a leave-on mask type treatment that cools and depuffs tired eyes! Great! I have puffy, tired eyes. But you actually have to work a little bit for this. They want you to give yourself a mini massage when using it and address to six acupressure around the eye area during application. So, technically, you’re getting doing the depuff work yourself by gently massaging around the eye area. I’ve never actually successfully mastered the correct technique for an eye massage although I do give myself a mini one of sorts when applying my beloved Dr Denise Hydroshield Eye Serum. But I couldn’t begin to tell you if I’m doing this right or not.
But massaging aside….
This formula actually contains a host of hydrating ingredients as well so it not only depuffs but also fights finer lines, and makes eyes look refreshed. After you apply it and you do your little 360-degree massage you can apply your normal eye cream over it. They suggest using it 2 to 4 times a week and applying up to three times a day for additional care. Yeah, ain’t nobody got time for that. I mean if I’m lucky I can give myself a little massage with this at night before bed but three times a day? No way! That’s just a suggestion by them though and I get it but I justdon’t think I have the time for it!
I’ll try though it. You know me when it comes to concealer and eye cream!
