Skincare stuff

I'm so glad this week is moving by fast! I'll be going to NYC on Saturday then to DC! I went to NYC 4 years ago but I've never been to DC before. Well I'm starting to pack already just to make sure I don't forget anything important. I hate it when that happens!



I just wanted to blog before leaving... I know I won't have time on the trip. I've been drinking a lot of milk lately. I never liked the taste of milk before but I'm starting to have a thirst for milk lol! My face has actually gotten a lot smoother since starting! Some people have actually broken out from drinking milk so it may be bad for your skin in that way! I guess I'm one of those people who didn't get acne from milk. Here is my fave kind of milk! I would get 2% but my dad likes 1% so whatever lol. I love the cute cow on it too!



I've been using a skincare line called Boscia for 3 years now and I'm not planning on trying anything new anytime soon. It's a line from the Japanese brand Fancl. It's really hard to get actual Fancl stuff in stores in the U.S. so I tried Boscia. Everything is preservative-free and their products contain botanicals. It works well with my dry skin. I heard they are also good for those with combination skin. I love their cleanser, Soothing Cleansing Cream because you apply it like a lotion then wash it off with water. My skin doesn't feel like the moisture on my face got stripped away. Their Makeup Breakup makeup remover is awesome too! You use it the same way as the cleanser! Those two products are my fave from the line. I highly recommend the moisturizers too. Make sure to use it up within 6 months after the open date. It's not hard to do since the bottles don't come with that much product. I don't think I could go anywhere without the products in the picture except the eye cream. I would try something cheaper since I haven't noticed any changes in my undereye area while using this.



Products in the picture:
Soothing Cleansing Cream
Enliving Amino-AG Eye Treatment
Balancing Facial Tonic
Makeup-BreakUp Cool Cleansing Oil
Vital Daily Moisture SPF15
Recharging Night Moisture



Here's a pic of my skin at the moment. I don't have BB cream on or anything. I didn't want to use my whole makeup-less face in the pic lol. I'll probably scare some people.

Ok time to sleep! Thanks for reading!

Shu Uemura Makeup

I finally fixed my stupid comment box! lol I was wondering why I was missing that comment box but I realized that I didn't do something specific... so that's why it wouldn't show up. The only way it'll work is if I use the full page comment way instead. Kind of lame but whatever. At least all is well now!



It was Father's Day and had dinner with the entire family. It was alright... with cake and stuff. I went out with Di since she hasn't seen me for a while. We went to get a drink. We ended up going to Costco and Target though. I know... so random. At least I got my Swiffer! I don't know why I can't ever find it at Costco anymore. Are they just not carrying it anymore?

For my dad, grandpa, and uncle! Very yummy cake! Not too sweet and fresh strawberries!





I also received my Shu Uemura make up I ordered earlier last week! I love this brand so so much! I have only tried the eyelash curler, eyeshadow and the blush though. The colors are so vibrant and a little bit goes a long way. It's a bit pricey, but it will last me for a long time. I'm still not half way done with a lot of my old eyeshadows from this brand yet. Then again, I don't wear makeup to work everyday. I wish I could but my coworkers would totally think it's weird.

Each eyeshadow and blush comes in this kind of package. It's a bit flimsy but I think it looks nice and simple. There is also a reason why the packaging is like this.


There is a hole in the back and you can punch out the blush and eyeshadows, and you can make your own palette! You do have to buy the compact though. I got the palette for free since there is a promotion going on. Check it out at http://www.shuuemura-usa.com! It costs around $15 so it's a good deal. Here are the colors that I picked.

It's a dark green eyeshadow, a pink eyeshadow, and an apricot blush. This was my first time wearing this shade of blush. It actually looks cute on my skintone. I only need to dab a bit of it on.

The limited edition compact


Ok time to try to sleep. Yea another week is about to start! I can't wait until this week ends.
