I am enjoying this clay mask! I apply it on to my face, wait for it to dry, and then remove it in the shower. It feels very therapeutic! I like that it doesn't take too long to dry and it is easy to remove. I have used clay masks in the past that stick really tightly to the skin causing irritation. However, this mask doesn't cause any irritation to my skin. Although being a clay mask, it isn't messy at all!

This product does have a few draw backs. It comes with a hygienic applicator stick (so you don't need to stick your fingers into the pot). However, I wish that the stick could've been a little bit smaller so it could fit inside of the jar. I have no where to keep the applicator and I worry about losing it. Also, the product smells like seaweed to me. Personally, I am not a big fan of anything that smells like the ocean. I am a bit sensitive to smells.

The Clarisonic comes with a charger, refreshing gel cleanser, and a traveling case. The charger is pretty cool! It's completely magnetic so you don't have to worry about any exposed charging ports.

I like the gel cleanser that comes with the package. It smells really fresh! It kind of reminds me of the cucumber lemon scented soap that some hotels have at their spa.

The carrying case is useful for travels! I place my Clarisonic in the case whenever I travel back home from university! It keeps it damage free when the brush is in my suitcase full of clothes!

I wear makeup everyday! I am also very adamant about taking off makeup at the end of the day. After wearing makeup for a good 9 years, I've gotten a good makeup removing routine down. I don't think there has ever been a day where I've slept in makeup. Just the thought of sleeping in makeup makes me feel uncomfortable!


This is a product that I recently purchased. I have pretty dry skin. I rubbed my face and it felt dull and lifeless. This is due to long time usage of acne face washes and acne medication. I did some researching online, and many people recommended this product. It comes in a cute pink bottle!

PROS:
-I like the consistency of the product: it feels rich and luxurious on the skin.
-A little bit of the product goes a long way: you don't need much to fully cover your face.
-The product applies smoothly on the skin
-Hydrates and reduces the appearance of "flaking" skin

CONS:
-Smells a little bit like craft glue
-Must dip finger into product: sanitary / bacteria concerns
-Can feel a little bit oily

I like to think of myself as a person who enjoys the cold weather. So now that fall is here, I am glad that the warm weather is slowly drifting away~! I can finally bring out my sweaters, scarves, and boots from my closet.

Well as you all know from my previous post, my iMac is broken. However, I went home and got my laptop so we can get back on this weekly blogging schedule again~! My replacement computer should be coming in soon, but for now my laptop should be sufficient. 
This bed definitely "had a lot of lovin'" as James would say. The mattress was lumpy in the middle and it kinda disturbed me to know that many people probably have slept in this room before me. However, I brought a foam mattress with me when I moved in so at least there's a bit of separation between me and the bed. Also my cute bedsheets and mattress cover sort of help!


In this corner, I keep my mini fridge and backpack. I'm super glad that I brought this fridge with me! It holds a lot of my essential foods. Also it looks super cute because it's pastel blue :)! If you want to check out how it looked before here's a link ["Preparations / I'm A Grown Adult"]! On top of the fridge, I keep my espresso machine. I know I haven't formally mentioned that I own an espresso machine, but I've actually had it for a couple of months now. I don't really get to use it every day because of the noise and common courtesy for my room mates, but it makes delicious espresso drinks that remind me of my old job.

I don't know if I'll post photos of the common areas (kitchen, bathroom, etc.) in my apartment since I share it with three other girls. I kind of want to respect everyone's privacy so there won't be any photos of it for now! Sorry, perhaps one day I'll make an apartment tour on my Youtube channel :)! We'll see!

I thought it was time for me to update my glasses! I had the same glasses since junior year of high school which was like five years ago! In fact, I have a photo immortalized on my tumblr of the day I got my old glasses!  It's really embarrassing, but now I sort of feel like sharing these photos on this blog xD!

In high school, I HATED the way glasses looked on me! I had cornea problems caused by complications from my contacts which forced me to wear glasses for a whole year! It made me feel really self conscious. All my feelings came from my experience of wearing glasses in elementary school.

When I was in first grade, I picked out these really cute baby pink glasses. I thought they were so cool! I couldn't wait to wear them on the first day of school. However on my first day, one of the older kids said my cute glasses looked like "Harry Potter glasses" and it made me feel sad. Then I vowed to get contacts once I got old enough ( *  ^  *  )!

I sort of feel indifferent about wearing glasses now. I need them to see at night time when I take off my contacts. To be honest, I still don't think glasses look good on me, but I don't really mind having to wear them! If someone told me my glasses look like "Harry Potter glasses" now, I think I'll thank them and take it as a compliment considering how much money the HP franchise made! Haha.

Now here is a plethora of old photos of me wearing glasses from oldest to more recent :P!
