Part one explains hypochlorous acid and azelaic acid. My other essentials for acne include Ariul True AC Pimple Patches or honestly, any pimple patch with skincare ingredients—these are formulated with niacinamide and tea tree leaf oil. I also love the Lion Pair Acne Cream. This is a gentle OTC acn

Dossier creates dupes of luxury and designer perfumes. Gourmand White Flowers ($29-49) is inspired by Viktor&Rolf Flowerbomb with top notes of bergamot, green tea, freesia, and berries. Floral Marshmallow ($29-59) is inspired by Killian’s Love Don’t Be Shy. The top notes include marshmallow, ne

If you have light skin with neutral undertones, these are my lip liner recommendations that will suit your skin tone: Make Up For Ever Artist Liner in Wherever Walnut and Tower 28 Lip Liner in Paint My Number. Wherever Walnut is a warm rose nude and Paint My Number is a muted mauve. If we’re shade

I have a few essentials for acne, so this is a two-part post! Hypochlorous acid spray kills bacteria and calms irritation. I use this sometimes after a workout or if I have a pimple, I’ll use this before putting on a pimple patch. Azelaic acid calms redness, unclogs pores, treats acne & dark s

Today, I interviewed for my dream job and I chose to wear my signature perfume: Coach Floral Blush. This is a sweet, floral scent, as well as light and fresh. Top notes include goji berries and grapefruit. Middle notes are peony and peach. Bottom notes are white wood, musk. It has a soft projection

There’s many benefits to double cleansing like it removes makeup & spf, clears pores, boosts product absorption, and deep cleanses my skin. I know I should only double cleanse at night, but do I have to do it daily? Honestly, it’s my least favorite part of getting unready and I only double clea

Hypochlorous acid sprays are not all formulated the same, but I think most are formulated with water, sodium chloride, and hypochlorous acid. Medicube’s Hypochlorous Acid Spray is also formulated with niacinamide, panthenol, and many other ingredients. Does that make Medicube’s better or is it bett

My natural makeup or no makeup makeup routine consists of 5 products: a skin tint, concealer, blush, setting spray, and mascara. Right now, those products are the Abib Dewey Tinted Sunscreen, Maybelline Fit Me Concealer, House of Hur Blusher in Rose Brown, Kosé Make Keep Mist, and Clio Kill Lash Le

If you have a light skin tone with neutral undertones, you should be wearing Physicians Formula Bronzer in shade Bronzer and NYX Buttermelt Bronzer in Deserve Butta. If you’re looking for something slightly darker, All Butta’d Up is a good option for light skin tones with neutral undertones. If we’

If you have a light skin tone with neutral undertones, we’re shade twins and I’m going to share the shades I use for concealers! In the Maybelline Fit Me Concealer, I wear shade 15 Light (my actual shade) to conceal and 11 Vanilla to brighten. In the NYX Bear With Me Concealer, I wear shade Light.

If you have a light skin tone with neutral undertones, we’re shade twins! If that’s the case, I wear shade 130N in the Sephora Collection Reveal The Real 12HR Soft Radiant Skin Tint and shade Medium in the Abib Dewey Tinted Sunscreen. There’s a shade Light, but I think that might be better if you h

In office, you should avoid wearing strong fragrances and heavy gourmands like Sol De Janeiro 62 and Ouai Ibiza body mists. These smell so good, but in a shared office space, others might find it distracting or nauseating. Ouai Ibiza has rum in notes and I think that scent is noticeable, making it

I would avoid wearing strong perfumes, like Kayali Vanilla 28 and Valentino Born in Roma, in the office. I get it, you want people to know you smell good, but wearing strong and heavy scents can be overwhelming at work, especially in a shared space. These perfumes are better for going out rather th

Absolutely obsessed with the Fwee Blurr Pudding Pot for no makeup makeup looks. So obsessed that I own 4 shades: Faded (dusty rose), Sth (dusty pink), Greedy (plum red), Boss (deep plum). These are cream, matte, natural blushes with buildable colors. They have a large collection of blushes with 35

Red blush can seem intimidating, but not the House of Hur Moist Ampoule Blusher in Ruby Red. This is a serum-like blush with a sheer, buildable color, so it’s only as pigmented as you want it to be. The formula is also 50% skincare—I love when makeup is also skincare! #koreanmakeup #lemon8ch

I rarely recommend a non-Asian mascara because Asian beauty brands understand my eye shape and how stubborn Asian lashes can be, but I’m obsessed with the Maybelline The Falsies Lash Lift Mascara. This mascara keeps my lashes curled all day, as well as adds dramatic length and volume, making it loo

My lip combo for the Olivia Dean concert started with the Sacheu Lip Liner Stay-N in MUAH-ve. Then, I used the Makeup By Mario Lip Liner in Spiced Chai, MAC Silky Matte Lipstick in Sin, and Marin Lip Treatment in Unscented as a clear gloss. #summermakeup #lemon8challenge #lipcombo #makeup

Another back to school nail set idea! If you’re looking for a way to elevate a simple manicure, consider adding chrome. I’ve been learning to do gel manicures on myself this summer and adding chrome is my favorite thing to do since I don’t know how to do anything else with my nails. My nails are gi
