KOREAN BEAUTY SECRETS: A PRACTICAL GUIDE TO CUTTING-EDGE SKINCARE AND MAKEUP

KBSTBW
It’s officially official, we wrote a book! Like an actual one, that you can hold, and buy, and that would look so incredibly cute on your coffee table.

I’m going to take the words from my co-author and soul sister Kerry (Skin & Tonics), and let her give you her take on it before I put in my two cents 😀

We set out to create a book that would be useful, interesting, and fun for complete newcomers to K-beauty as well as the more experienced, and I wholeheartedly believe we accomplished that task. It has everything you need to know to assemble a Korean style skincare routine, including :
• Detailed information on each skincare product categories
• How to assess and address your skincare needs
• Tips for determining layering order
• Shopping and ingredient cheat sheets organized by skin concern
• Ingredient definitions
• Detailed example skincare routines by several of our favorite bloggers
• Nearly 250 English-Korean ingredient translationsIt also features:• An amazingly thorough makeup section that provides detailed descriptions of all the different makeup categories
• Guides to achieving some truly beautiful Korean-inspired makeup looks.
• A lot of gorgeous photography

One area where Coco and I were particularly fortunate is that we were given full control over the book’s content and design. Being given design control is not typical in the traditional publishing industry, so this was a really big deal for us! Coco art directed the photoshoots, and I handled the layout and information design. We both developed the cover design. The finished product is a beautiful, glossy, full-color, hardcover. If you don’t want to wait for November to order it, you canpre-order it on Amazon and receive it the day it’s released (November 3, 2015).

I’m so excited to introduce you guys to this book. It’s coming out in Nov, but like Kerry said above, it’s available on Amazon right now for preorder, which you can also access via the link on the sidebar of the homepage. I’m so proud of everything and I’d like to give a special shoutout to the stellar team we put together to bring you this baby. Truly, it was a labor of love, and I think you might love it just as much as we do.And like I said, it’s going to set your coffee table off so very nice 😉

MEDIHEAL PUMPKIN ADE SHEET MASK REVIEW

PumpinademaskIt’s Fall, and that means pumpkin season! Most people are clambering for pumpkin spice lattes and wrapped up in their coziest sweaters. I don’t drink coffee, but I’m still on board with the big sweaters and pumpkin everything; so much so that I’m even extending that to pumpkin infused beauty for today’s review!

Mediheal Pumpkin Ade Mask is fairly basic sheet mask. The first five (and therefore the most prevalent) ingredients are water, moisturizers, pumpkin fruit extract, and green tea extract. So it’s pretty straight forward that this is supposed to be a calming, moisturizing mask, and it is!

It’s always hard to write reviews for sheet masks because it’s like “Yeah, I put this on my face, then I took it off, it was aiiite”, but I’m going to try to be as detailed as possible for you here! The sheet itself is a thick faux cotton, it’s called Tencel, a form of rayon consisting of cellulose fibres. Honestly you’d never know it wasn’t cotton, it’s very substantial and has quilting throughout the mask as you can see here.

There’s no scent, I was almost hoping for a pumpkin-y goodness imbued throughout the mask but no, it’s totally unscented. I suppose that’s good news for those that don’t share the pumpkin obsession the rest of North America falls into once the first leaves turn. The serum in the mask is very hydrating and a bit sticky. I had to wipe a bit of the excess away before it would pat into my skin completely. It’s a nice little inexpensive mask, I paid under $2 for it. There’s only one ingredient on it’s list I give the side-eye to and that’s Chondrus Crispus (Irish Moss) which scores a 5 out of 5 for acne triggers but it’s very far down on the list. Other than that a fun mask, great hydration, and a cute theme.
