Ah, that I could! I need something to give my brows color and make them fuller. The Benefit gel is tinted and has fibers so it makes my brows look like they exist. :/ I fill them in every day or it looks like I don’t have any—it sucks.

ALL of the Fresh products are my jam. I love that rose mask, and I think I have three of the sugar lip treatments/chapsticks. They’re one of my favorite splurges.

Best of luck with the new chemo meds. I hope they do their job without being too hard on your body.

This isn’t nitpicking insomuch as Rachel is pointing out issues of intersectionality. As Flavia Dzodan pointed out, “My feminism will be intersectional or it will be bullshit.” We all need to think about our feminist messages and if we’re being inclusive to all or if we need to reconsider our language. It’s how we…

I’m in love with Klair’s Freshly Juiced Vitamin C serum. It’s really brightened my face!

LOVE Banila Co and Su:m 37 Rose cleansing stick. Those are my first two steps in my K-beauty routine.

Banilo Co. Clean It Zero sherbet cleanser. It easily melts away even waterproof mascara, smells great, is reasonably priced, lasts a long time, and makes my skin feel soft, not dry. Love it. https://www.amazon.com/Banila-Clean-S…

A lot depends on your skin type (normal, dry, combo, or oily), so I’ll give you this link if you want to do some more reading: https://www.peachandlily.com/blogs/news/512…

Hmm. I had been considering getting one of those Baby Feet packs. The hot water/vinegar/listerine soak sounds interesting. Do tell—what are the ratios?

You’re welcome. I’m grading papers right now, so SNS is my fun tonight. I hope things work for you!

The essence depends on what you’re looking for. I am using the Mizon First Essence ($14 on Amazon) because I was looking for something to help moisturize, first and foremost. Second, I was worried about wasting money if I bought something that sucked, so I didn’t buy the Missha Time Revolution First Essence ($27 on…

I no longer have little dry, red patches on my cheeks and a big oily t-zone. My skin is brighter, clearer, and softer. I know I sound like a commercial, but I’m 3 months into using this stuff and I can tell my skin is better. I no longer need foundation—I literally just use bb cream (for the spf) and some under-eye…

It is overwhelming, for sure. I did a ton of research. I looked to blogs and read a lot about products at SoKo Glam and Peach and Lily, two K-beauty stores online that were created to introduce K-beauty products to the US. Of course, I keep in mind they’re trying to sell me stuff so everything is “awesome,” but I used…

You’re welcome! I hope it helps. There are some great serums that can help with moisturizing and acne, too. Just put them on after the essence and before your moisturizer. (I swear, I just need to start my own k-beauty store. haha)

A good matte liquid lipstick is a thing of beauty. I’ve become obsessed with theBalm’s Meet Matt(e) Hughes liquid matte lipsticks. They stay on so long!

This was my skin last winter. I started a Korean beauty regimen and it changed my life. If you want the cheapest way to help your skin, use an essence after cleansing. The Mizon line is really affordable on Amazon and lasts forever. It preps your skin for moisture, so your moisturizers absorb better, rather than just…

I took hormonal bc for about ten years until I finally decided that I had enough of my period and went in to get an IUD about 1 1/2 years ago. BEST DECISION EVER. I haven’t had my period in a year, although I do get cramps sometimes and some discharge. (And I did have monthly light bleeding at first.) I’ve been…

THANK YOU. When all that shit when down in 2012 when Anna North and Jessica Cohen thought it was fine to post pictures (stills from a video) of a journalist being raped, they also used the excuse—in part—that Jezebel is not a feminist site. Jezebel isn’t set up great for searching the comments sections, though.

I want to star this so many times.

Ugh. C’mon Jez. There was more to her quote than that. I know you have to get clicks, but don’t sell out another woman to do it. Here’s a fuller version of the interview, via USA Today (see the bold in particular):
