Summer Pans!

Slide 1:

Beauty of Joseon Ginseng Cleansing Oil: 5 ⭐️, my makeup melts off with this.

Bioderma Sensibio Micellar Water: 5 ⭐️, my holy grail micellar water. It takes off even the most stubborn makeup without stinging.

Slide 2:

CosRX Advanced 96 Snail Mucin Essence: 5 ⭐️, another holy grail product that I’ve loved for at least a decade now

CosRX Advanced 92 All in One Snail Cream: 5 ⭐️, I’ve also used this for a decade and I love it. My skin is combination tending towards oily & sensitive & this calms my redness down.

Kiehl’s Ultra Facial Cream: 4 ⭐️. I got a small tub of Kiehl’s as a gift from a client & I loved it so much that I bought the giant size. Unfortunately, it’s too heavy for me in spring/summer so I switched to the Biossance Probiotic Balancing Gel fit spring/summer. I just discovered that Kiehl’s sells refills so I’ll refill in October.

Slide 3:

Eos Vanilla Cashmere Moisturizer: 4 ⭐️ because of the packaging. This bottle sucks, it becomes a struggle to get anything out when it reaches half full. I usually dissect the bottle & put everything in a Rubbermaid. But I love the smell and it leaves my skin so soft. I found a version of this for sale in a tub but I feel like the scent isn’t as strong. I might decant the bottles into the tub when I finish the tub.

Slide 4:

2 x Beauty of Joseon Relief Sun Rice + Probiotics SPF 50: 5 ⭐️. My holy grail sunblock. I know I have a lot of holy grails here, because I’m really set on my skincare routine. I bought about a dozen tubes of this in November after the election b/c I was concerned about tariffs & there was a really good sale. I HATE western sunblock! So sticky, goopy & white. I have no clue how I’ll get the original formulation, I have about 4 tubes left. 😔

Nivea UV Super Water Gel SPF 50: 5 ⭐️, this is the perfect day to day walking around the city sunblock. I have a bottle at home and a bottle at work.

Slide 5:

Commodity Milk Expressive Mini from the Scent Space Set: 4 ⭐️ This is my signature scent, my best friend got me an assorted scent collection by them. I just wish it lasted longer but you’ll love this if you like campfire & vanilla scents.

Laneige Vanilla Lip Mask: 3 ⭐️. I bought this because I had their choco berry kisses set & I couldn’t find the chocolate sold individually. The chocolate had a very rich flavor & this tasted/smelled like barely anything. I like the way it hydrates so I got the mint chocolate scent from Senti Senti but that barely has any scent/flavor.

Vaseline Rosy Lips: 5 ⭐️. I assure you, this was a tub of Vaseline, my coworker just loves to put stickers on all of my possessions. I’ve bought Laneige, Summer Friday, & Ole Henriksen balms but I keep coming back to this (Henriksen is my second favorite).

Slide 6:

Progress in my Rare Beauty Blush shade Happy: 3 ⭐️ . I like the level of pigment, it gives me that just back from a run glow. I just wish the shade were a little cooler. It’s also incredibly crumbly even though I treat it very gently and have never dropped it.
