Watson's Aloe Vera Hydrating Facial Mask Review!

I live in a dry climate, so I should sleep with a humidifier on to keep my skin plump and hydrated. HOWEVER, I don't own a working humidifier, s0 a sheet mask every other day re-hydrates my face!

Masks are Step 6 of the Korean Skincare 10 Steps. The one I use was bought in a Chinese convenience store summer of 2014 (doesn't expire until 2017, see box's picture below). 

The mask is refreshing and not sticky.  No weird smell and soothing, so I'm excited to keep using them!

TIP: Massage excess essence into your neck and decolletage!

This blue sheet protects the white cotton from getting torn and dried out.

TIP:  Store sheet masks in the fridge for a more pore-tightening cooling effect.

February Empties

Products I've used up in February!

Review: Body Wash

Pros:

• Inexpensive- about $5 a bottle at Wal-Mart or Target.
• Smells good.

Cons:

• The bottle says it's suppose to be used for "winter dry skin", BUT after getting out of the shower my skin needed additional lotion to have smooth, not-dry looking skin.

Verdict: I don't recommend purchasing because it does not moisturize winter skin like it advertises.

Groom Yourself!

Eyebrows frame your face. Without them no one can tell what your eyes are saying!

I prefer thick brows. Mainly 'cause they're easier to maintain and give my round face more definition.

TIP: Eyebrows do not have to be identical twins. If they're fraternal, that's alright too!
