SHEET MASK | The Creme Shop Be Jawsome, Skin Sheet Mask

Purchased by me

Who can resist a mask with such pure positivity in its name?! And it's a baby shark which automatically makes the "Baby Shark Du Du Du" song run through my head! The Creme Shop is still one of the more accessible sheet mask brands that does printed masks fairly regularly so when I saw this one at Miniso, I had to grab it because of the cuteness factor!

SKINCARE | Laneige Open to Wonder Midnight Minis Holiday Gift Set

Purchased by me. Affiliate links.

OMG, it has been soooo busy at work these last two weeks! Don't get me wrong, I love the client aspect of it, but it is the admin side and the constant worry that I have forgotten something that stresses me out! Plus, I find this is the time of year where because things are frantic, staff get messy, forgetful and their brains stop functioning. I will say that it truly is a skill to keep your brain working under stressful periods. Basic math can go out the window or you suddenly forget how to do things you've known how to do for years. One thing that I have NOT forgotten to do is to hydrate my lips especially overnight! Don't you love my super smooth segue?

SKINCARE | Haruharu Wonder Black Rice Probiotics Barrier Essence + Moisture Airyfit Daily Sunscreen SPF 50+

I don't know what happened, but out of the blue in July of this year, I received an email from Yesstyle for a Jumiso gifting campaign that involved posting a review to Instagram about the products I received. I thought sure, why not and then remembered my love for Yesstyle and placed a personal order in August. Since August, I have received three more gifting campaigns all from K-beauty products I have either been super curious about. I don't know why I am suddenly receiving all of this attention despite my slowdown in blogging and the social media space in general, but it actually has been kind of fun now that I don't receive as much PR. 

NAILS | Red Cap Mushrooms #CBBxManiMonday

I just had the dreaded Inventory and thankfully the store was closed and we could just focus on that for 6 hours, but it is such a tiring activity! Then today, I got my Covid shot which has knocked me out with extreme fatigue since noon. I almost didn't get the shot this year (I just got the flu one), but seeing as how I have caught Covid at work every year (even multiple times in one year) since the mask mandates were lifted, I figured I would get it just to minimize the possibility of it getting any more serious!

SHEET MASK | Anua Peach 70% Niacin Serum Mask

 

Purchased by me

It has been awhile since I have featured a sheet mask from a new-to-me brand, but one that I have been seeing all over social media for awhile now - Anua! I don't really know how to describe Anua as many of these newer, TikTokey, Instagrammey Korean beauty brands tend to have the same aesthetic of minimalist packaging and a focus on ingredients, but that's kind of what Anua is! Their ingredients are actually what caught my eye and I am delighted to say that I am now a fan even with just this one single product!

BODY | Naturium Bath and Body Collection

I am late to the Naturium body care party, but after enjoying the skincare (down to the last drop for certain products), I wanted to give the body products a try mainly because I like the idea of an AHA in my bodycare. There are SO MANY products within the body care collection now that since I have taken so long to review these products, I will probably need another two posts to cover the rest!
