Review of Missha’s CHOGONGJIN GEUMSUL Jin Mask

Missha is a well-known and popular Korean brand, they produce skincare and makeup and are well-known for their high-quality BB creams. Their new CHOGONGJIN line is designed with the intent to embrace timeless natural ingredients and harness their restorative powers to heal and protect your skin. It has three types of masks including this one, Geumsul (royal honey jelly), Sosaeng (red ginseng; review), and Youngan (black ginseng; review). Each mask is made with a Gongjin blend of ingredients which includes thyme, cornelian cherry, and female ginseng. This mask is designed as a highly nutritious mask drenched in the Gongjin complex. It's meant to perfectly hug your face contours to nourish and revitalize skin. Key ingredients include (of course): thyme extract (antifungal, antiseptic, fortifies skin, helps to keep dry skin from feeling tight and itchy), cornelian cherry extract (antioxidant-rich, vitamin-rich, treats skin damage and aging, enhances skin clarity, and radiance), Korean angelica extract (known as female ginseng, fights signs of UV damage and aging, detoxifying), royal jelly extract (nourishing, vitamin-rich, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, skin repairing, healing), niacinamide (whitening, lightening, anti-aging, rejuvenating, anti-wrinkle) and sodium hyaluronate (anti-aging, anti-wrinkle, hydrating, moisturizing, healing). This mask retails for between $4-6 USD, you can get 4 pieces here for $12.99 + shipping.

Ingredients

Water, Glycerin, Dipropylene Glycol, Niacinamide, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, 1,2-Hexanediol, Glyceryl Stearate, Hydroxyacetophenone, Polyglyceryl-3 Methylglucose Distearate, Sorbitan Sesquioleate, Palmitic Acid, Stearic Acid, Arginine, Carbomer, Hydroxyethylcellulose, Angelica Gigas Extract, Cornus Officinalis Fruit Extract, Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate, Ethylhexylglycerin, Thymus Vulgaris (Thyme) Extract, Velvet Extract, Adenosine, Sodium Hyaluronate, Disodium EDTA, Fragrance, Codonopsis Lanceolata Root Extract, Royal Jelly Extract, Myristic Acid, Arachidic Acid, Lauric Acid

This mask contains 30 grams (1.05 oz) and does have an herbal artificial fragrance. Also, due to it containing velvet extract, this product is not vegan.

The sheet mask is a 3D air mesh fiber mask designed to fit well and have optimal adherence to the skin. The fit of the mask is really great and I had no real need to adjust it.

Recommended use is after washing your face, use a toner to prep the skin. Align the mask to your eyes, nose, and, mouth. Remove the mask after 10-20 minutes. Gently tap the skin to help the absorption of the remaining essence. This mask is not vegan and contains fragrance. After using, I haven't been this impressed with a Missha mask for quite some time, normally they are a little uncomfortable but this one is very nice quality and very comfortable. There is a very noticeable herbal type of fragrance which I feel is common in products like this. It's very ginseng-y smelling. This could definitely be irritating to the skin but I found it suitable for my sensitive skin and very gentle. There's lots of essence and the quality of the essence is very good and plumps, hydrates, and nourishes the skin. The ingredients are very enriching and apart from the fragrance there are no irritants. I'd recommend this to anyone with dry and aging skin, but it can be used on sensitive skin in my opinion, but always patch test first.

What I like: this mask is really nice quality and the material of the mask is fantastic, extremely soft, and adheres very well to the skin. The ingredients are fantastic and it's a very moisturizing and nourishing mask. What I don't like: I don't mind the scent, but unfortunately, this added artificial fragrance can be an irritant.

Pros:

Nourishing

Moisturizing

Hydrating

Soothing

Plumping

Wonderful mask material

No major irritants apart from the fragrance

Cons:

Fragrance

Not vegan friendly

Would I buy again?

Yes

Rating: 9/10

PORTUGUESE STANS, JOHNNY AND DOYOUNG GOT SOME PASTÉIS DE NATA IN THE LAST EPISODE OF JCC, WHAT A BLESSED DAY FOR OUR NATION

[gloomybabygirl]

{chicken soup} Poe Dameron x reader

this story depicts the reader struggling with an eating disorder and being helped through an episode of self hatred. please read with caution.

a/n: hi hi this is a little self indulgent comfort fic because I had a rough time dealing with my ED today :) part 3 of ‘in my head’ is coming, I promise!! I'm trying to make sure I love it before I post. also p.s. I know Coraline isn't in Star Wars aksdjbjdb it’s just my chicken soup movie OKAY 

warnings: depictions of an eating disorder (body dysmorphia and starvation), mentions of self hatred, mentions of weight (not specified), self deprecation (reader), this is a fluff comfort fic! if any of these are a trigger, please consider skipping this one. take care of yourselves loves, you’re all beautiful <3

word count: 1633 (oops I meant to make it shorter)

summary: Poe comforts you when he realizes you haven't been taking care of yourself

You were getting sick of the face looking back at you in the mirror. You had studied your own face for so long you were pretty sure you’d filled your quota for the year. You’d been in the refresher for the better part of the night. Ignoring the hunger pains you felt, you continued to inspect yourself. You slowly rotated and contorted your naked body at odd angles trying desperately to find a way to accept what you were seeing reflected back at you. You ran your hands along the parts of you that you weren't so fond of and poked and prodded them. You shifted your eyes back up to the face that you had spent so long scrutinizing. Puffy eyes and tear stained cheeks stared back at you. You climbed up onto the counter and sat cross legged so you were nose to nose with your reflection. You stared into you own eyes as the tears welled up once more. 

Poe had been gone for two days with BB-8 on a mission. He hated to leave you alone and worried that you wouldn’t take care of yourself while he was away. You lied through your teeth when you told him you’d be okay without him. 

The truth was that you couldn't heal alone. Sure, you had to do most of the work yourself, but Poe’s understanding and love was an integral step into you feeling like yourself again. It was okay for you to need help.

You jumped when you heard the blast doors open, scrambling off the counter. Your hastily tied your robe around your waist just as Poe stepped into the refresher. 

“Baby you're not going to believe this mission! I had a run in wi-” He stopped mid sentence when his caring eyes met your bloodshot ones. “What’s wrong my love?” He took two long strides to you and cupped his hands over your cheeks, wiping the tears with the rough pads of his thumbs. His eyes turned more worried when you didn't respond, just gnawed anxiously at your lip. How could you tell him how you were feeling? He would never understand. 

“Baby?” He moved his hands to stroke your arms, desperate to elicit a response from you. All you could do was look up at him, immediately feeling the tears fall once you saw the distressed look in his eyes. 

He pulled you into his warm embrace, guiding the back of your head to rest on his chest with your folded hands against your face. Strong, protective arms completely encompassed you and Poe gently rocked you where you stood. He pressed kisses to the top of your head, patiently waiting for you to be ready to talk about what was bothering you. 

It wasn't always easy for Poe. Patience was a learned trait for him. He wanted you to be able to come out and say exactly how you were feeling so he could help you feel better faster. Over the years he came to find that sometimes you needed time to process exactly how you were feeling. You were filled with deep, complex emotions that were often times hard for you to sift through. 

You sniffled and lifted your head to look at him. 

“I hate myself,” you muttered, looking away from his eyes. You couldn't look at him and say those words to him when you knew he loved you so much. 

He pulled you back into his arms. “Please don't talk that way about my girlfriend. I love her. And she has so many lovable qualities.” 

You lifted you head again, allowing him to wipe away the fresh tears. 

“Did my girlfriend eat while I was away?” he asked innocently. You once again had to look away when his face fell with the realization that you hadn’t. He was upset that you hadn't taken care of yourself while he was gone. When you were feeling insecure about your body, it was a bad habit of yours to starve yourself. 

“Baby you need to eat. Please?” 

You shook your head, feeling like you were underserving of food when you hated the way your body looked. 

“Can I ask you something?” 

You nodded. 

“If I asked you to take care of something important to me, would you?” 

“Yes, of course,” you responded automatically. 

“Then why aren’t you taking care of yourself?” He asked, cupping your face and giving the tip of your nose a kiss. He then led you over to the bed, guiding you to sit when he noticed you were wobbly from lack of nutrition. 

“Stay here, I’ll be right back, I promise,” He looked over at BB-8 in his charging station. “BB, you’re in charge of cuddles until I get back, okay buddy?” 

The droid beeped dutifully and proceeded to roll over to you, nudging you and chirping happily. 

_

The blast doors flew open twenty minutes later revealing Poe with food in one hand and a stack of holovids in the other.

“First, food and water. You deserve nourishment, my love. And you don’t need to feel guilty about eating, I’m going to eat the same thing you do.” 

You were reluctant to eat with him but you could’t resist when he revealed he had brought your favorite food home. 

“And don't worry about finishing it, you know I always have room for whatever you don’t eat,” he smiled at you, knowing he didn't really need to remind you of this fact.

Once he was satisfied with the sustenance you had put in your body, he pulled you to your feet. He guided you back to the refresher and let go of you only for a moment to start the shower. 

He respectfully helped you undress and then stripped himself, waiting for the water to be a bearable temperature. When he was satisfied with is very scientific ‘hand water temperature test’, he stepped into the shower, pulling you with him. 

Under the steaming water he massaged shampoo through your hair, smiling to himself as he saw your eyes flutter closed at the feeling. 

“Will you talk to me?” you asked. “Tell me about your mission. I just want to hear your voice.” The warm water was starting to relaxing you. 

He laughed to himself, but began to tell you about the mission he’d spent the last two days on. He kept his tone even, even during the exciting parts so that his voice maintained its soothing lull. 

When he was done washing you and had done the same to himself, he took a step back to admire you, keeping his hands on your lower back. 

“Beautiful,” he murmured, so quietly you weren't even sure you’d heard it correctly. 

Suddenly self-conscious with his eyes burning you, your arms came up to hide your body from him. He shook his head and carefully placed your arms back at your sides. 

“You don't ever have to hide from me,” he whispered. 

Poe took his time with you under the running water. He kissed every inch of the body that he loved so much, paying special attention to his favorite parts of you, and to the parts of you he knew you weren't fond of. He whispered how much he loved each part of you as he went, slowly making his way across your skin, painting you with his lips. His words flowed out and bathed you in love and warmth, making you start to believe them. If this is what it would take for you to learn to love yourself, Poe would do it everyday. He wanted you to see yourself the way he saw you. 

Once he felt satiated from you, he turned the shower off, still holding you in his arms. He wrapped you in a fluffy towel before grabbing your hand and once again leading you to the main room of your shared quarters. 

He pulled out your favorite pajamas and helped you dress in them, smiling at how cute you looked with your wet hair and fresh face. He donned his softest pajamas, knowing you'd snuggle into him regardless, but not wanting to take any chances. 

He turned to look at you sitting on the bed, quiet but no loner looking like you were going to cry. Progress. 

He held up the selection of holovids he had stolen from Finn, “Which chicken soup movie tonight, my love?” 

You surveyed his choices, smiling at the fact that he knew you well enough to have chosen all your favorite comfort movies. “Coraline,” you decided. You wanted something you’d seen over and over so you could fall asleep while you watched. 

“Coraline it is,” he began the holovid and made his way over to the bed, burrowing himself under plush blankets he had also stolen (from Leia this time). 

“Come here baby,” he opened his arms to you. You readily climbed into his open arms, relishing in the way his arms instantly wrapped around you. This was your happy place. 

“Thank you,” you whispered against his neck, giving him a small kiss there. 

“You’re welcome baby. But you don’t have to thank me, I want you to love yourself and I’ll do anything I can to make that happen.” He pressed a soft kiss to your lips, nose, forehead, and lips again before you nuzzled back into his neck. 

Halfway through the movie, Poe looked down to find you had fallen asleep, mouth slightly open. He felt his heart soften and relief wash over him at seeing you peacefully sleeping in his arms. He could finally relax, knowing his efforts had succeeded.

Poe wanted you to love yourself as much as he loved you. And he would help you in whatever ways you needed until you loved who you saw in the mirror.

Become A WEIGHT TRAINING EXERCISE Lion

This may be the hardest article I've ever had to write, it really is the very first time I've admitted, that I might be getting older. ROB! Yes, we are receiving older but, remember the rest of the sentence...AND BETTER! Most of us remember Mufasa! The solid, brave, protecting, heroic lion from the Lion King. Make without doubt about it Mufasa was The King!! That's right just like Elvis (showing my age group). Mufasa died fighting heroically to safeguard his satisfaction now. I'm not saying it had been age group that was his undoing. BUT who knows, if he had changed his training strategy during the last few years-trained just a little smarter......probably he wouldn't have gone his battle in the gym and had even more in the tank on game time. Could the results have been different??? Ok! back again to real life or at least my edition of it. Tammy Renee my Mufasa (boss, greatest friend, blah blah blah) provides approached me more than once about writing an article designed to help the ageing athlete. That is right, us siblings in Iron are sportsmen. My thoughts were....why would I end up being asked by her? What perform I understand about aging athletes?? I train as i have always.......I'm a global champion! Hello there!! earth to rob..you're 51 years outdated!! You are a mature athlete!!!! WOW!! It dawned on me then ..the things I i did so all night take me forever to accomplish now...BUT that is clearly a different story. We can save that for a different content. GINA - Aging sportsmen? Oh my....Can't we come up with a more correct term politically? lol Rob, haven't you noticed 40 is the new 30, 50 is the new 40? I actually injured my shoulder winning the W.A.B.D.L. Masters Bench Press Globe Championship in 2005. I competed in Bodybuilding in 2006 coming in 4th place in the W.B.F.A Team USA vs the World competition. I thought that easily actually got my conditioning right down to a research and came in shredded I could do some harm in 07. I thought then...am I a bodybuilder really? Is normally that where my interest is? My pal, occasional training partner and incredible powerlifter Phil Davi was in the fitness center working out. He talked me into seeing what I got on the bench that day time. Now I hadn't benched weighty in a long time. To say my initiatives were sloppy would be an understatement. However I did so max out in the 455lb range somewhere. For those of you at home and especially us Mufasa types....PLEASE don't get a max out from the crystal clear blue and wonder why you obtain injured. Some people are slow learners just. Phil checked out the existing world records in the alphabet soup of powerlifting agencies and discovered with some schooling, I would be right there and perhaps able to break a global record or 2 in the bench press for my generation and weight course. I actually asked my good friend, fellow article writer, fitness model, fitness competitor, amount competitor, fitness center owner, fitness expert of the entire year, one of the hottest Mothers and hottest women on the planet........drum roll.......... Gina Ostarly what she thought which was her response: "I am 99.9 % sure you ALREADY 'know" the answer...so this is just a 2nd thumbs up...I think.....I always go with my interest....whats in my heart...sounds like yours is in power lifting....always has been...As long as your 2005 injury is healed and can not hinder you...go for the record! The only reason I've not made it back to fitness .....is because my body won't allow it all...We keep getting harm...hell getting old...haha...but, I have not given up....in the suggest time I will be the very best figure competitor I could be.... From the source want Gina how may i not listen. Okay...that I understand now, I am growing older let's implement a few of our fresh found knowledge, in my own quest to set the 50 to 54 age course 220 lb pounds class bench press world record. My recuperative skills are not what they were in the past. I've had to create this concession to age group already. So over-teaching is a large issue around babyboomers. I have been guilty of the especially, In my over zealousness to earn championships, break information, play soccer or what have you I want to go obtain it and throw caution to the wind just. Well, after a torn hamstring, torn bicep, ligament harm in both ankles, sore knees and over all everyday aches and pains. Training: Okay hear we go. People talk to me on a regular basis if I reside in the fitness center or how many hours a day time do I workout?? There is a period when I would train with weights 6 days weekly and do cardio 6 or seven days a week. that was a couple of years ago. The cardio part especially, that was more for sports activities than for appearances. once I used powerlifting I think my just cardio was operating from the couch to the refrigerator. (Gina) Rob, people talk to me the same issue or make the assumption, " all day long must be educated by you, everyday." Well, my secret is CONSISTENCY, as time passes. Its not really about how much you do "this week" or "this month" Getting and residing in form is a prolonged dedication. Its doesn't imply killing yourself all night in the gym, it about creating stability and living realistically. Training 2-3 days weekly CONSISTENTLY will yield a better result in a calendar year than somebody who works out everyday for a week skips 3, functions how hard direct for 3 weeks.....drops off the true face of the planet earth for 2 months....etc....You get my point. My teaching had remained the same for several years basically. Pushes on Mon & Wed - ie.. chest, shoulders, tri's & abs Pulls on Tues & Fri - ie.. back again, bi's and obliques Legs & lower back again on Wed & Sat - Wed will be more squat oriented . Sat will be more deadlift oriented Based on what We was training designed for my weights might vary but also for the the majority of part the scheme was the same. As I stated cardio was as required. EASILY was trying to accomplish something where I needed to move actually. I would run or play basketball. EASILY was training for something where movement wasn't a concern...believe me I wouldn't move. The heaviest I've ever weighed was 277 in 2003. Breathing was a problem, my ex said during the night I snored like a rhino in high temperature. When breathing becomes a nagging problem it may be time to go back to the drawing board. That is while you are still able to draw.....My blood pressure I'm sure was sky high....never had it checked. I was the epitome of the ostrich strategy. Keep my head in the sand and what I don't know won't harm me. Training Mufasa: Ok! For us old lions...what can be done? Get yourself a physical: That's right! First factor head to your Doctor get a complete check-up and make sure that finely tuned or at least soon to be finely tuned machine is ready to go. Shed a few pounds: For the majority of us that is probably the first plan of action. Help to make it less complicated on those muscle tissues and joints (not to mention your mate) and drop a few. In case you are still fighting trim you get yourself a gold star here but I'd like a notice from your own significant other, just in case you're filled with it. Do cardio: I've dropped from an average fat of approx. 265 to now even more in the 225lb range. My heart, my joints, my blood pressure and my puppy Hank (the rhino in heat noises musta taken there toll) are thankful. Although I significantly changed my diet to get right down to 215 for the BB contest. I have since been eating a complete lot more but daily cardio sessions have kept my weight down. Not to mention again the primary muscle, my center (yes I have one) is appreciative. So for all of us Mufasa's cardio is crucial. Listen to the body: Train together with your mind, not over it. No, that can be done over head presses still. Just use common sense in your workout routines. Pass feel whether it's there and you feel like lifting a little heavier go for it. If not. listen to your body. Cool off the heavier weights for a good work out or 2. Don't pressure it! Consider shorter rest periods and go just a little lighter. There are way's of keeping your workout strength without setting world or also personal records. Go for QUALITY not Volume, and yes Rob, always pay attention to your body! Great suggestions. There are therefore many variants of you skill when exercising. Hardly ever feel like you need to "force thru it." Dealing with the big headed attitude could have you pushing for the LAST TIME! Don't overtrain: As I mentioned earlier. I was and at times am still, a habitual overtrainer. This correlates with the above directly. Listen to the body. Over teaching at this stage of the overall game, is more detrimental than when we are younger. As a young child we can get away with a little more. Today all we're gonna obtain is a severe limp and some catabolism on top of that. Seriously, this is not a joke. DO NOT OVERTRAIN. For the majority of us, three resistance training sessions weekly should fill up the bill. Use the K.We.S.S. (keep it basic stupid) in your workouts. Work each muscle mass group once a week. Nutrition: Nourishment is up to 80% of the battle. Breakfast is either the most or second most important meal of the full day. Your post workout meal is definitely it's competition. Be sure to eat protein with each meal. Start your day a good hearty breakfast. This gets the machine which is certainly you in movement. Look at the body as a furnace, you should gasoline it to maintain it burning properly. Obtain it started very first thing each morning (breakfast) and maintain fueling it every 3 hours. Look at a fire, you don't throw all of the logs on simultaneously. Throw a log in at even intervals and it will burn efficiently. Throw them all in simultaneously (supper) and it'll smother and fail. Avoid the All-American meal program. The coffee is known by you and a doughnut for breakfast, more espresso and a Hostess cake off the roach trainer for break period. Deli sandwich, coke and a handbag of chips for lunch. Then devour what ever the heck you may get your hands on for dinner not to mention our 2 Vermont buddies Ben and Jerry or Krispy Kreme (right Gina??) before bed. Post workout beverage: This along with breakfast is very important. Your post workout drink should contain a quality protein drink with some simple carbs (dextrose). More hints You need to take advantage of the window of opportunity right here 30 to 45 min. after your exercise. You body is in an emergency state right here and is preparing to make use of these crucial nutrients. Glucosamine and chondroitin: This have already been a miracle treat for me. Remember they take up to 30 day's to get into your system and don't stop acquiring them once you start to experience better......or back to painsville!!! As you can see a little modification here and there and some common sense is all that is needed!! As Gina so aptly put it " we are getting older but remember all of those other sentence.....

Review of Skin79′s Natural Snail Mucus Soothing Gel

Skin79 is a well-known Korean brand that started in the 90s and became popular for its BB creams. Their Natural Snail Mucus Soothing Gel is designed to soothe stressed skin and promote clear skin and a fresh complexion. Key ingredients include 1,000ppm  of snail secretion filtrate (anti-aging, moisturizing, maintains elasticity, nourishing), hydrolyzed collagen (anti-aging, anti-wrinkle, aids in collagen-production), aloe extract (anti-aging, moisturizing, lightens blemishes and reduces acne, healing, reduces scarring), barbary fig extract (nourishing, antioxidant, replenishing, hydrating, skin protecting), bamboo extract (soothing, adds vitality, anti-inflammatory, removes dry skin, antioxidant, healing, hydrating) and cucumber fruit extract (hydrating, moisturizing, soothing, cooling, nourishing, softening). This soothing gel retails for between $7-9 USD, you can get it here for $7.65 + shipping.

Ingredients

Water, Glycerin, Butylene Glycol, Sodium Hyaluronate, Carbomer, Glyceryl Acrylate/Acrylic Acid Copolymer, Hydroxyacetophenone, Arginine, 1,2-Hexanediol, Betaine, Polysorbate 20, Snail Secretion Filtrate (1,000ppm), Fragrance, Disodium EDTA, Aloe Barbadensis Extract, Opuntia Ficus-Indica (Barbary Fig) Extract, Bambusa Vulgaris (Bamboo) Extract, Cucumis Sativus (Cucumber) Fruit Extract, Hydrolyzed Collagen

The gel contains 100 grams (3.52 oz) and has a slightly musky scent that usually is in any snail product. It comes in a squeeze tube so it’s easier to take with you as opposed to many other gels that come in tubs.

It's a thick, clear and typical soothing gel.

It's very hydrating and relatively thick.

It's super moisturizing once massaged into the skin and very refreshing.

Recommended use is to apply a proper amount on the face and body frequently, then gently pat in for better absorption. First things first, this does have an artificial fragrance so it's best to steer clear if you have issues with that. Otherwise, this product is a great option. It has a nice smooth texture and is very easy to massage into the skin (even my mom liked it and she doesn't like anything with snails in it lol). It works well on sunburns and dry patchy skin as well as really irritated, parched skin. Apart from the fragrance, there are no other irritants in this gel so it should be safe for a majority of people to use. I like that it came in a tube, easier for travel or taking it to the pool with you if needed. Definitely recommended for dry, irritated, and parched skin as well as skin with lots of redness.

What I like: this gel is really moisturizing and soothing and really does a good job of nourishing the skin. The ingredients are great and I liked the packaging a lot as it's more convenient than the big 300 ml tubs. What I don't like: the addition of artificial fragrance.

Pros:

Moisturizing

Soothing

Nourishing

Gentle

Calming

Refreshing

Nice ingredients

Great packaging

Convenient

Cons:

Fragrance

Would I buy again?

Yes

Rating: 8/10

SHOUTOUT Today I chose to use a BB cream that was not quite my color. You know how it is ladies. You paid for it, so if not horrific, we will use it. Right? Never has my husband said a word about my makeup. In 31 years of knowing each other, dating, marriage, he never has said a word. Today! It must have really made him want to pour out his thoughts. We get back home from our 2 mile walk, and he says.... “idk why you wore that makeup today. You are way too beautiful, and you know that... right?” I wanted to cry 😢...not because it hurt me. It told me just how much he really does love me for me. So when your man loves your messy hair, morning breath, dark circles under the eyes, and wrinkles that are forming... and doesn’t want that covered up. Yes! That’s love ❤️ (at Show Me Nourish) https://www.instagram.com/p/CMMGr9zj-Rt/?igshid=7j8y89bsbvxd

i got an hour

before the body is a landscape class, i wonder what the class is going to be like. i feel like i should look for a private spot, maybe the octopus bedroom :) 

i guess this post is for u, for myself, for yourself

but before i dive into that, thanks for being a good friend chi. i appreciate the care and kindness you’ve shared with me during this particularly chaotic and confusing time. what a time indeed. i wish i had approached this time with more care but of course, hindsight is always 20/20 whereas the present is in a lightless room.

you keep checking your phone to see if anyone has texted u. keep checking, keep turning over. it’s been cool not getting notifications but now instead, u check your phone when you’re looking for that brain rush. at first u weren’t getting distracted but now you’re used to it, and now u can see when you’re having a hard time bc that’s when i’m checking my phone.

all i need for happiness, is already in me. all i need for happiness is already in me.

i like talking to you. when i take this moment, it’s as if i’m aware i’m living. i’m aware what color the walls are, that there are walls, that i’m inside a house, and there is a lovely garden outside. i know that my parents are chaos. they are chaos. and i’d like to take some time to process who they are. who are they? 

i get on edge when i hear my dad move throughout the house. i learned from him to be quiet, especially during the morning hours. he’s intentional about that. he speaks in hushed tones and calls other people to also lower the volume in consideration of those sleeping. maybe this is the treatment he appreciates when he is sleeping. but now, maybe when i can hear him move throughout the house, sometimes it’s because he’s not afraid of disturbing others but it’s also his way to announce that he is upset. and that is why i get on edge when i hear him put away the dishes, shut the cabinet and drawers. something is on his mind, he is angry. i don’t do very well w angry ppl. they are scary. my dad throws things. there is a scar in the door when he hammered it at my sister. it’s amazing how my sister and i can just move on from that. it’s amazing that this scar has not been erased from the body of this house. my dad is a generous man, he cooks, he cleans, he communicates, he makes jokes, he sits on the toilet to pee and doesn’t leave the seat up. he is also condescending, but he can be patient. he cares but he also shouts and has been violent in his past. i am thankful that i have not seen him throw anything recently, i have not seen him getting angry. but i feel that distance, it’s like i’m angry at him, i can’t look him in the eyes, it’s hard for me to share my warm smiles with him. this time will pass. when u talk about your dad, chi, it reminds me of the times when i would give him the silent treatment, i think this was in high school, although i’d have to give more time to see if this was post college as well. tangent? eh, maybe later. i didn’t want to talk to him. and i didn’t have to. but i did if i needed to, but other than that i wouldn’t. i guess it wasn’t enough for my parents to kick me out of the house, maybe they knew i would come around. - he just came in, speak of the devil. 

my sister and dad gang up on my mom it seems. when i’m not around, i think it’s hard for her. but i also see that my sister gets into arguments w my mom bc belinda is trying to defend me or speak on behalf. i think, belinda doesn’t need to do that, she can just let it slide, like it do, then they wouldn’t get so angry with each other. but they do. my mom thinks belinda can be disrespectful. i said to belinda that my dad is condescending to our mom and belinda says my mom is also disrespectful of others. i guess belinda’s right, my mom called me fat, that i should lose weight and i pounced on that. sometimes i use it as an excuse not to eat dinner with my mom and my dad. i tell mom matter of factly that i’m missing out on the family dinner she wants so much bc she hurt me, and this is my way of hurting her. i want her to take her words back. having some distance from the original comments, it’s been a couple of weeks, i can see how she was trying to help me. yes, there have been things going on in my life where i have abused food and my body. i just put on the jacket that makes look like a teddy bear. i feel like a teddy bear, i’ve worn this jacket many times but for some reason, i’m really getting the teddy bear vibes rn.

am i on a protest, the do nothing for my life and prove that i’m worth living protest? what an interesting social experiment. zach calls me ngoc anna, and i think it’s brilliant, also awesome. 

my mother. i get the sense of righteousness from her. the want to be healthy (creatively) and imposing these senses of health on other people. she does that. my dad has a sense of health, but not to the level of my mom, i don’t think he imposes that much either. she gets worked up, or at least she did, about his smoking. she indoctrinated my sister and i and now we do that work for her. she still gets into it sometimes. she gets into how my dad should take care of his physical health, not handle heavy things like furniture. she is a boss. i know what she wants bc she makes it known. she’s vocal. she’s very vocal about how ppl should live their life. belinda is living the life that my mom wants her to i guess. belinda’s making money and i guess that’s all my mom cares about at the moment. she was worried about belinda when she was seeing multiple people and also didn’t like when belinda was rock climbing (i’m so angry at the guy who dropped belinda, if i ever see him, i think i might stalk him... or maybe say something to him.) but belinda is not doing those things now. but she doesn’t like how i’m living. she doesn’t like that i’m pursuing film. she doesn’t like that i don’t have a steady stream of income. she makes it known. there is hardly a conversation with her that she doesn’t bring it up. my mom is vocal. 

i wish i didn’t have to hide. my mom says that she’s ok with my queerness and that i don’t have to hide, but at 2021, if i can’t openly disclose my queerness to her acquaintances, that’s hiding to me. it’s sad for me to hide, it’s sad for me to feel embarrassed for my parents. to know that in order to alleviate their suffering, i would have to take myself out of the picture. i’m sad that it’s not me and my parents as a team, it’s me against them and their contacts. it’s sad, i wonder why my mom didn’t want me to pick her up in front of her workplace a couple of weeks ago. i summed it up to me having very short bleached and dyed hair. it shows me, and i already knew, what my mom thinks of people who look like me. i remember their discomfort when i brought them to the qtviet cafe show. my parents weren’t ready. it was a learning experience to see the community that i’ve grown with through their eyes. it’s like we were aliens, that we had a terrible sickness that they didn’t want near them. 

my parents don’t feel comfortable in queer spaces. and that’s sad. there is a part of me that they tolerate but don’t love. i think about the times where i accompany my mom to the temple or my dad to his old people vietnamese clubs, i see their world, i meet their friends and peers. i do my best to make them proud that their kid, their daughter is presentable, and loves them, supports them, wants to be there for them. i know it’s not a competition or a comparison, i know that everyone is one their own journey. it’s just, when i take this time to reflect, i am looking at where we are. i’m thankful for the love my parents share for me, i am. i guess that makes me feel better. but i am also hopeful, that by chance, a miracle could happen, and they can love me more, they can grow more than they already have. that future, that world seems glorious, it seems really nice. i can imagine tears coming to my eyes. 

i guess nowadays, sometimes i think about giving up. i think about, maybe not only do i not have to fight for queerness, maybe i can choose the straight lifestyle. i know it’s not exactly a choice, but it seems like all the hardships i’ve been through, i can just let go of that. it’s a fun option to peruse around in. i’m not going to do it, i don’t think. i’ve been saying, that the only way i’m going to fall in love w a cis male is if he is more of a feminist than me. and i guess i haven’t been around in those circles enough to meet someone like that. we’ll see if that’s in my destiny, i certainly won’t hold my breath. 

i’m getting a little nervous about this class. it’s coming up in about 10 minutes. hopefully i can also hold to the fast today. i didn’t yesterday, so many snacks, so many thoughts of, let me ‘hurt’ myself and eat this. i felt a little hopeless. i was overstimulated. how can the love of my parents be nourishing but also overwhelming? sometimes i am sad when i see their bodies, how much they’ve put themselves through, where they came from, the mindset they have. are they free? are they in pain? i feel like they have more sexist mindsets than me, but am i more free than them? i guess this is the struggle. i’m glad they’re both here though. and as much as i worry and fear, they are alive, they are breathing, and i do believe, they are well. 

i love u my dude. i know u worry about other ppl a lot. i know that u spread yourself thin and u don’t even realize. i know we’re working on centering ourselves and just being. we’re trying to reach enlightenment. we are trying to be a rock. we are trying to figure out why the sight of our dad annoys us and to resolve that. i’m proud of u, i love u, i think you’re a revolutionary artist. i think you’re insightful and i think you’re one of the most beautiful people i have ever laid my eyes on. i love u deeply dude, and i think the best thing about that is that we know this to be true forever. we trust each other don’t we, because we are ourselves. fuck the rest, we the best, bb. u can let go, bc i got u, we will take turns taking care of each other. it’s a lot sometimes, but i hope we will prioritize each other. ngoc anh and anna, is it possible to develop and get lost in multiple personalities? would i do it if i was guaranteed to be happy? is there ever a guarantee? let’s take each other’s hand and see the beauty of this world, bc isn’t that what we want life to be? can’t we be our own best option, dream life, forever on cloud nine? 

we’re gonna face this class and just flow dude. forget all the worries of others. we’re just gonna be here and we’re gonna have fun. 

thanks for dropping by, i’ll see u again soon. and we shall conquer in time. it could be tomorrow (o you’d love that) or it could be in ten years, bottom line, we just gotta love each other. that’s all we gotta do. we’ll be ok babe. we’ll be ok.

Full Product Review from Lancome Makeup, Skincare, & Fragrance

Think beautiful, think happy, think feminine and you have Lancôme. Deriving its style and mission from the effortless chic of Parisian women, this pioneering brand is one of the most successful in history and continues to win over make-up artists, skin therapists and cosmetics lovers the world over.

Lancôme Fragrance

Combining cutting edge science, with the best of nature and a genuine understanding of women’s needs and desires, Lancôme’s iconic products include the Visionnaire and Génifique skincare ranges, cult perfumes such as Trésor and Lancome La Vie est Belle, plus the coveted Hypnôse mascaras, Absolue lipsticks and Teint foundations.

Little wonder than that celebrities such as Penelope Cruz, Julia Roberts, Kate Winslet and Lupita Nyong’o have chosen work as ambassadors for this much-loved brand. With an array of products to care for and inspire you, whatever your mood, Lancôme has something to offer every woman…

Lancôme Origins

Named after the Lancosme chateau, Lancôme was founded in France by Armand Petitjean, originally as a perfumery. The castle provided inspiration for the brand’s iconic rose logo, epitomising Petitjean’s vision for elegant, typically French beauty.

Since its launch in 1935 with just five fragrances, Lancôme has grown to include luxury skincare, make-up and bodycare. It is now among the most trusted and best-selling beauty brands ever, continuing its proud history of taking Gallic style to the rest of the world.

Your Lancôme must-haves:

Lancôme Visionnaire

To get the best results, it pays to use the best products. See your skincare as an investment and you’ll be thankful down the track. Even as little as a month down the track – if you’re using Lancôme Visionnaire Advanced Skin Corrector, that is!

The product that we all know and love has recently been made over (yes, after receiving almost 100 international awards and winning over scientists and beauty experts alike, Lancôme decided it could go one step further) and the amazing results must be seen to be believed.

But first let’s backtrack to 2001, when Visionnaire [LR 2412 4%] Advanced Skin Corrector was quite the ground-breaker. The first serum capable of recreating exceptionally beautiful skin, the secret lay with its unique LR 2412 molecule. Created in an eco-friendly way by Lancôme’s team of researchers, this ingredient has a high affinity with the skin and allows it to permeate evenly into the epidermis.

Now, the formula has been further developed for even more effectiveness. Ever the perfectionists, the French cosmetics house doubled the biological strategy of LR 2412, to create LR 2412-Cx. This is a unique combination of two molecules that allows optimum balance and distribution of Visionnaire. In layman’s terms – twice the effectiveness!

With Visionnaire, you’ll notice:

– Lightweight oils, to nourish the skin without shine

– Optical agents, to leave a powdery soft finish

– Enhanced blurring, to further erase uneven skintone

– Fine pearly particles, to give an illuminating effect

Lancôme Advanced Genifique

A youth-activating concentrate, Advanced Genifique targets a range of concerns in just one drop. Here’s why we can’t get enough of it:

Results

In just ONE week, you will begin to see changes in your skin.

Lancôme DreamTone

Combining cutting-edge research with the luxury and style of French skincare, DreamTone is your answer for beautiful, dark spot-free skin. With unique technology, the revolutionary serum targets different pigmentation issues using a triple action approach – so you get long-term results!

How DreamTone helps remove your spots

Three made-to-measure formulas seek to correct dark spots, irregularities in tone and unevenness in texture. Active ingredients are tailored to each unique pigmentation concern, helping to:

Improve radiance

Minimise excess synthesis of melanin (our skin’s colouring)

Re-shape the skin structure

Lessen inflammation

Stimulate blood circulation

Decrease ruddiness and discolouration

Diminish sallow, dull skin

Reduce the appearance of blemishes

Unique, light-diffusing agents instantly brighten and give skin a more uniform look for that healthy, toned complexion you’ve always dreamed of!

Lancôme Hypnôse

Comprising Doll Eyes, Precious Cells, Drama and Custom-Wear, choose the Hypnôse family of mascaras for the ultimate in length, curl, volume and separation, from root to tip!

What makes Hypnôse so successful? Here are some insider secrets!

1. Hypnôse has won over 130 international awards.

2. The Soft-Sculpt™ formula, associated with a lengthening and coating Polymer complex has been one of the keys to the success of Hypnôse over the past decade.

3. The Hypnôse PowerFULL brush has around 1,000 bristles, which use ‘sensors’ to seek out even the teeniest of lashes.

4. Hypnôse is the number one mascara in Europe.

5. For the past ten years, one Hypnôse mascara is sold every 10 seconds across the world.

Lancôme Rouge Absolue

They’re creamy. They’re vibrant. They’re glossy… and they’re luxuriously packaged. Lancome lipstick is like no other. Used by make-up artists around the globe, there’s a colour to suit every mood and a texture to withstand all those pesky makeup-removing behaviours (you know, kissing, eating, drinking, waiting outside in the elements).

Loaded with lip-loving nourishment – think hydration, SPF and vitamins – Rouge Absolue won’t feather and are super easy to apply. Looking chic at all times, has never been easier, but really, would you expect anything less from the French?

TEINT FOUNDATIONS

Offering a variety of foundations, Lancome foundation is renowned for its high quality powder, cream and liquid foundations. Make-up artists and women the world over enjoy the buildable coverage, from sheer and natural to full and high impact, catering to each individual skin type.

My skin is normal

You can get away with pretty much any formula! Keep everything in balance, looking for a foundation that will provide just the right amount of radiance, moisture and anti-shine. The perfect candidate for a product with SPF, check out Lancôme Miracle Air De Teint SPF 15 or Lancôme Teint Idole Ultra 24H SPF 15

Lancôme Teint Miracle

My skin is oily

You’ll love a compact. The powder will mop up any shine, giving a long-lasting, matte finish. Your skin will be left soft, while coverage can be built up to your desired level – and touch-ups are super easy! We recommend Lancôme Teint Miracle Natural Light Creator

My skin is sensitive

Gentle, light foundation is what you should look for. Let your skin breathe with a BB cream type of formulation, which will reduce any irritation, provide hydration and protect from the sun. Here is our suggestion – Lancôme Teint Idole Ultra Compact

My skin is mature

A nourishing, firming formulation is what you need. As well as hydrating the skin, this sort of foundation will plump, restore vitality and help to diminish the appearance of wrinkles – ensuring the product never settles into them!

Review of coxir’s Ulta Hyaluronic Cleansing Oil

coxir is a Korean brand that focuses on using mild, plant-based ingredients that leave skin healthy and balanced. Their Ultra Hyaluronic Cleansing Oil is designed to dissolve makeup and impurities while deeply hydrating the skin. Key ingredients include 100mg of sodium hyaluronate (anti-aging, anti-wrinkle, hydrating, moisturizing, healing), canola oil (nourishing, moisturizing, vitamin-rich, keeps skin supple and smooth), rosehip fruit oil (hydrating, moisturizing, exfoliating, brightening, boosts collagen formation, anti-inflammatory, reduces hyperpigmentation), camellia japonica seed oil (doesn't clog pores, doesn't leave a greasy finish, forms a nice moisture barrier, keeps skin smooth and hydrated), aloe leaf extract (anti-aging, moisturizing, lightens blemishes and reduces acne, healing, reduces scarring) and blueberry fruit extract (anti-aging, antioxidant, whitening, anti-acne). This product retails for 18-20 USD, you can get it here for $19.38 + shipping.

Ingredients

Cetyl Ethylhexanoate, Canola Oil, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, PEG-20 Glyceryl Triisostearate, PEG-8 Isostearate, Rosa Canina (Roships) Fruit Oil, Camellia Japonica Seed Oil, Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract, Melaleuca Alternifolia (Tea Tree) Extract, Sodium Hyaluronate (100mg), Citrus Limon (Lemon) Fruit Extract, Malpighia Emarginata (Acerola) Fruit Extract, Euterpe Oleracea (Açaí) Fruit Extract, Vaccinium Angustifolium (Blueberry) Fruit Extract, Morus Alba (White Mulberry) Fruit Extract, Vitis Vinifera (Grape) Fruit Extract, Prunus Avium (Sweet Cherry) Fruit Extract, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Extract, Leontopodium Alpinum (Edelweiss) Extract, Phenoxyethanol, Fragrance

To quickly note, I received this for a small fee from 0.8 Liter for my honest review, this post is not sponsored.

The cleansing oil contains 150 ml (5.07 oz) and has kind of an oily scent.

The product is made of sturdy plastic and has a pump.

If anyone wants to know, these are swatches from the Revolution Beauty x DC Collection - Batman Flawless Eyeshadow Palette - This City Needs Me Forever.

It dissolves the eyeshadows really easily. This also does a great job on sweatproof concealers and foundations/BB creams.

It rinses off cleanly and doesn't leave any residue.

Recommended use is to apply a moderate amount of product on your face and gently massage in circular motions and then rinse with lukewarm water. After using, it's important to note, this product does have an artificial fragrance but it's not really detectable and it mainly has an oily scent. It applies very easily and works on eye makeup and base makeup that is sweatproof and/or waterproof. It also rinses off very cleanly. The ingredients are really nice and there's only one irritant on the ingredient list. The packaging is convenient and it's easy to use the pump. I'd recommend this to anyone with normal to dry skin.

What I like: this product removes all your makeup pretty easily and isn't irritating. It's got minimal irritants in the ingredient list and its nice quality. The packaging is convenient and it has a pump. It's not drying or greasy and is really ideal for people with normal to dry skin. What I don't like: it contains artificial fragrance.

Pros:

Non-drying

Moisturizing

Nice ingredients

Nice quality

Convenient packaging

Really dissolves makeup

Cons:

Fragrance

Would I buy again?

Yes

Rating: 9.5/10

Everything A Modern Gentleman Needs In His Grooming Kit

Did you come of age in the nineties? In ye olden days, there were no “influencers” – just your gang of mates, a monthly magazine and pop stars who’d only appear when they had something to promote (read: infrequently). Early adopters were the real influencers: that first person to introduce a new style to a social circle. Certainly, your hair cut had to be approved by your friends: going to school with a fresh cut verged on mildly traumatic as the unwanted attention was unleashed. But a skincare ��regime”? Laughable. If anyone knew you had dabbled with your sister’s St. Ives face mask? You’d never had lived it down. Even dad’s side of the bathroom was low on inspiration: a Gilette razor, a tin of shaving foam, a sliver of soap and an ancient can of Old Spice talc? Mum was the one in charge of your ablutions – picking up a can of Lynx Africa in the weekly shop.

Collectively, we’ve come a long, long way since the men’s grooming market came to the fore. Fifteen years ago brands started to entice male consumers to add a one-fits-all moisturiser to their nuts-and-bolts personal “care” routine. Today, we’ve become increasingly sophisticated in our choices and personal care goes below the neckline: from manicures and pedicures, to body tanning and hair straightening – all the way down to manscaping. This is in addition to the regular man-maintenance of hair styling and beard care that’s keeping barber shops open on high streets otherwise shuttering at record rates. We’re catching up with women in the self-improvement stakes. Even the idea of makeup is catching on; so whether you’re more of traditionalist or a seasoned pro on a mission to try the latest foil mask enriched by hand harvested sea kelp, we’ve made a comprehensive guide to everything you need in your grooming arsenal.

Eyes

Let’s start with the key products you need to keep your peepers bright and the skin around them from creasing like an old paper bag. For the mornings, use a de-puffing roller eye gel to massage away bags and help you feel more awake. Choose a richer eye cream for night when the skin is in repair mode and will absorb more of the active ingredients.

Eyebrows are a very important – but often overlooked – facial feature: they define the face (especially in the absence of a strong hair line) and open up the eye area when properly groomed. A pair of tweezers is helpful to keep stray eyebrow hairs in check, along with a brow comb to groom and fix them in place.

Keep some moisturising eye drops on hand to counteract the redness and dehydration caused by fatigue, driving, flying or screen overload.

Face

The classic regime for the face applies to most skin types and all ages. Thankfully these days most brands cater to virtually every skin care concern – oily, sensitive, dry, mature. The basic routine? Cleanse, tone and moisturise twice a day. If time is short in the mornings, prioritise doing a proper job before bed.

Specific facial cleansers are PH formulated to be kinder to skin (than a shower gel) and can have exfoliating or pigment busting ingredients. Toners and facial mists, applied after cleansing, can improve the absorption of whatever you’ll be applying next: cream, lotion or serum. Choose a light daily moisturiser with an SPF to protect your skin from UV exposure. Like with eye cream, your night skin cream or serum should be more nourishing or potent.

In addition, weekly treatments such as an exfoliating scrub or face mask should be used to increase cell turnover, offer extra hydration or an ultra deep clean. Lip balm, often essential in winter, keeps lips soft, smooth and chap free. BB Creams, tinted moisturisers and even concealer are there if you want to enhance the skin, cover blemishes and spots.

Shave

Whatever the current trends dictate our facial follicles should be doing, chins are hairy and you need to know how to deal with it. Clean shaven? Get yourself a decent razor. Steel safety razors offer good value for money (a one-time purchase if taken care of properly) and reduce your plastic footprint. Where convenience is still king, cartridge razors seem to come with all manner of unnecessary add-ons including extra blades, batteries and vibrating functions: dare to keep it simple. For sensitive skin, wet shaving can be more hassle than it’s worth, so a decent electric shaver will save aggravation.

No matter what you opt for, prepping the skin is a must. Shaving after, or during, a shower softens and lifts hair, making it easier to cut. Arm yourself with a hot flannel, warm the blade under the tap and apply a good quality shaving cream or gel to reduce irritation and improve razor glide. Finish with a soothing aftershave balm with skin-healing ingredients like aloe vera.

Beard/Moustache

For the hirsute of face, a specific beard wash and beard oil are essential. The former to cleanse the hair and purify the skin and the latter to nourish the skin and condition the hair (use a comb to brush it through to the dry ends). When it comes to keeping your chosen facial hair style in check, look for a quality beard trimmer with a number of attachments and guards for precise edging and cutting.

Body

The essential rule is to stay fresh. Deodorant, body soap/gel and a body scrub should be on your shopping list. Buffed skin is smoother, softer, prevents ingrown hairs from shaving or waxing and provides the best base for natural and fake tans. As for hair removal, a hand held body grooming device will help tame rampant undergrowth.

Hands and Feet

Feet and hands need attention; moisturise daily to keep them in good condition and keep your nails trimmed straight, smooth and clean.

Hair

A well maintained hair cut can add more worth to your look than a bespoke suit. Someone who is impeccably turned out makes a good impression. A quality shampoo will remove styling build up and keep the scalp in good condition. Conditioner isn’t really necessary for hair that sits above the ears unless it’s particularly unruly.

In terms of styling, a matte paste is one of the best all-round products for short, choppy styles. Longer length locks can be managed with a salt spray or leave-in conditioner. Your hair is only as good as your barber makes it, so if it’s not working, find a better scissorsmith.

Teeth

We are given one set of pearly whites for life and as the gatekeepers to your bodily health – plaque has been linked to heart disease – they are worth every penny of care. Make a hygienist appointment every six months and commit to regularly changing that scummy brush head. Whitening strips can help remove staining, but it’s always best to go the professional route.

A sonic toothbrush can be a game changer for both your routine and oral health. Meanwhile designer toothpastes from the likes of Marvis, Buly and Lebon helps switch up the flavours to keep brushing more of a pleasure than a chore.

Scent

While we espouse a certain amount of choice in the fragrance department, we also advocate a concise starter kit. In general, a fragrance “wardrobe” should consist of three to four scents: a go-to cologne for daily wear in summer and another staple for winter, and one, possibly two, evening scents that are deeper or heavier than the day options (think seduction).

By all means, if you’re confident you’ve found “the one” then there’s no real need to add to your collection. Others may find that different seasons and moods require different aromas: it’s a personal choice. Perfume houses, such as Floris London and Penhaligon’s, can make the selection process a lot simpler with one-on-one consultations to help you find your signature. On the hunt for a new whiff? Start with the all-time classic scents.
