10 New Micellar and Cleansing Waters Available for Spring 2017

I admit I’m not a huge micellar water fan unless I’m in a hurry. My cleansing routine is rather long but I embrace it because my skin looks great when I take good care of. I never feel fully clean when I use solely a micellar water. So, typically if I’m home late and I’m just being lazy that’s when the micellar water comes out. Or sometimes I use it in my double cleansing as it works a treat to swipe away any left over makeup, dirt, and oil my cleanser may have left behind.

If you’re a diehard micellar fan girl or guy here are 10 New Micellar and Cleansing Waters Available for Spring 2017!

INSbyN Deep Aqua System Mask Review

So, I thought I’d give you a brief review of the INSbyN Deep Aqua System Mask I got in my Facetory Sheet Mask Box which I was telling you about earlier today. I dunno if anyone really wants me to run through every single mask in the box but if you do want to hear more about the masks let me know and I’ll happily share my thoughts.

I just thought I’d throw in thoughts about this mask to give you an idea about the quality of the masks you can expect from Facetory. I finished up my rewatch of Bromance last night and this mask kept me company whole doing so. Because lord knows, you need a good facial mask on when you’re watching crazy ass dramas. Needless to say the mask and the drama were brilliant. Yeah, well, Bromance has its cornier moments but it’s adorable to say the least. On the upside, this facial mask was not corny.

Honestly, my ideal Monday evening is watching cute Asian boys on TV laying wrapped up in my warm comforter with a face mask on for 30 minutes to 60 minutes.

Hada Labo Gokujyun Premium Hyaluronic Acid Lotion Review

I purchased this item and I receive a small commission if you shop using the links in this post.

Hada Labo Gokujyun Premium Hyaluronic Acid Lotion is a fairly new addition to the Hada Labo Hyaluronic Acid. Don’t quote me but this one released in Japan about a year and a half ago or so and I’ve been using it daily for about that long now (actually I’m on like my fifth bottle of this stuff). I’m actually one of those rare breeds that likes Hada Labo Rohto Goku-jun Hyaluronic Milky Lotion versus the Clear Moist versions.

But Hada Labo Gokujyun Premium Hyaluronic Acid Lotion was getting so many ravings across Asian forums I visit as well as many mentions in Japanese magizines that I decided to check it out. This review comes at a great time considering that I just posted my thoughts on the new Peter Thomas Roth Water Drench Hyaluronic Cloud Serum which I thought was too expensive and too small for the price. So, if you really wanted to add a hyaluronic acid product to your current skincare routine I’d recommend skipping Peter Thomas Roth’s version and going for Hada Labo’s Premium formula. You won’t regret it.

Peter Thomas Roth Water Drench Hyaluronic Cloud Serum Review

I purchased this item and I receive a small commission if you shop using the links in this post.

Peter Thomas Roth Water Drench Hyaluronic Cloud Serum ($65) is a new, intense serum that contains over 75% hyaluronic acid complex to hydrate and help skin to retain moisture. We’ve all heard that hyaluronic acid attracts and retains over 1,000 times its weight and water. You’ve likely heard this on more than one occasion if you’re a Japanese skincare user as one of their most popular products, Hada Labo Gokujyn Hyaluronic Acid Lotion drives the point home many times over in their commercials and promotions.

Over the last several years, hyaluronic acid has become a highly popular ingredient in the skincare world and why shouldn’t it? It’s an excellent way to hydrate your skin and allow your skin to retain that moisture.

When I heard about Peter Thomas Roth Water Drench Hyaluronic Cloud Serum I was instantly overjoyed to check this product out for myself.

Here’s my thoughts and review.
