October Favorites

It’s the end of another month and that means it’s time for monthly favorites. This time aroundI have quite a bit more on my list including YouTube channel I binged watched almost every weekend and food bits. This month started out with a long holiday week and ending with me making far too many online orders.

So lets start with skincare. I got a lot of new products when I was in Busan at the beginning of the month. I have three that I’ve been loving since I got them!

The first skincare product has to be CNP Laboratory Propolis Energy Ampule I got earlier this month during my trip down to Busan (watch my vlog here). I have been using this since I’ve brought it and my skin has never been better! My skin was already starting to start feeling smooth and adding this ampule just quickly improved my skin. I couldn’t find any old up-close photos before I started use it, but I notice about two weeks after I started how the deep port along my cheeks and nose area have diminished. Even my skin tone has evened out quite a bit.

Along with the ampule, I’ve been using the CosRX Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence in my skincare routine. It comes out very gel like and looks like it will be sticky, but really goes on smoothly leaving your skin feeling soft and moist. When I wake up in the morning, my skin looks great and doesn’t look oily. Which is a major concern of mine.

Last bit of skincare is Dr.Jart+ Ceramidin Lipair. Since it started getting cold, my lip are starting to get even more chapped. And that doesn’t help with my really bad habit of picking at dry patch on my lips when I’m board. Lipstick or any type of lip color usually dry my lips out, but since I’ve started using this chapstick from Dr. Jart+ my lips haven’t gotten as bad. It’s doesn’t have a flavor and it not sticky. I really hate sticky lip products.

My favorite makeup right now is my Fenty products. Cannot say how much I love these primers and foundations! For my everyday makeup I use the soft matte and the primer. I love. And I really want to make another order soon to try more of their makeup.

Food wise, I’m currently obsessed with these quick “gourmet” meals from CJ. I’m trying to stick to my diet, which, I will admit, is hard. To have quick meals, instead of fast food or meal packs from the convenience store, I found these meals at my grocery store. They are pretty good especially the tomato based ones like this chicken and potato. The one I really don’t like is the beef stew. Just not my jam.

The next bit are those Gomunara Loop Bands. Since I can’t go to the gym and walking and hiking in the park behind me is my cardio, using these bands are helping me with strength training. I found tons of workout online and on Pinterest that uses bands. I love this set because it comes in several different strengths and it easily stores away.

All of October is also consider Vlogtober. So naturally some of my favorite vloggers were putting up great content all month! Both SunbeamJess and Hello October were doing Vlogtober, but with two different vibes. Jess was a everyday vlog, while HelloOctober were more weekly vlogs. None the less, love them both and they fashion styling. If your looking for cool, trendy, everyday style they have the best to show you. I spend nearly a whole weekend binge watch FBE videos. They are funny and quirky with there Generations Videos. I love watching the younger generation reactions to older generation music, movies and other pop culture past. The last one if AlishaMarie Vlogs. I know she has a main channel, which I occasionally check out, but I really do love watching vlogs more. It’s that peek into other people everyday lives and what they are going through.
