If I look at the K-Pop industry as a whole, I’d have to say the YG Entertainment is probably my favorite company simply because the majority of the artists I like come from their company. This being said, I was a little more than a little curious to check out their cosmetic line. However it seemed a bit gimmicky and I wasn’t totally sold on … Continue reading Moonshot BLACKPINK Cosmetics Review
Granhand is hands down my favorite fragrance shop. Their original handmade fragrances had me hooked the moment I entered their doors, well over a year ago. Whenever I need sachets for my closet, candles for my home or perfume for myself, I always make time to head over to their beautiful little hanok shop to resupply. Aside from hoarding their products for myself, they also make … Continue reading Granhand (그랑핸드): Korean Homemade Fragrances **Update**

So if you love sweets and cute packaging (like me) here are 3 hand … Continue reading 3 Deliciously Cute Hand Creams Every Foodie Needs
Beauty Cafes are slowly becoming the newest thing in Seoul. These cafes combine two of my favourite things, cosmetics and coffee. Innisfree has quickly become one of my favourite Korean cosmetics brands. They pride themselves on being a “natural brand,” meaning they use all-natural ingredients in their products and eco-friendly packaging.

As the little sister of the popular cosmetic brand Tony Moly, Château Labiotte is one of the lesser known Korean beauty brands.
