[REVIEW] Innisfree Bija Trouble Facial Foam

I've been meaning to review a product that didn't work out well for me for a while, so here it finally is! Today I want to share my experience trying out Innsifree's Bija Trouble Facial Foam. I tried this cleanser out while in Korea over the summer (July/August) and took notes on its effects during that time. 

Review summary: I can't recommend it to anyone with sensitive or dry skin. It did not help my acne and instead inflamed it while making my pores appear more noticeable and made my skin feel too "squeaky clean."

Brand Marketing: 5/5
Packaging: 5/5
Scent: 1/5
Effectivity: 1/5
Overall: 2/5

[GIVEAWAY] My Skinfood Membership + Skinfood giveaway

I recently signed up for a free membership at one of my favorite Korean cosmetic lines, Skinfood! I wasn't totally sure how I got all the free gifts that I did because the employee divided my stuff into two purchases to give me the best deal.

The free stuff I received on this purchase:
  • Box of cotton pads (free with any purchase that day)
  • Bottle of nail polish (they're having a 1+1 deal on their Nail Vita Alpha line)
  • Gift set of three mask sheets (aloe, strawberry, and tangerine) + a trail size (smaller than travel) tomato whitening kit (toner + cream)
  • Travel set (Lemon Verbena body wash + lotion, Rice Brightening Scrub Foam, Argan Oil Silk hair conditioner + shampoo)
I believe the bottom two were the membership gifts, but she didn't say anything about the mask sheet and whitening kit set, so I'm not sure.

[REVIEW] Skinfood Black Sugar Cleansing Oil



This is my first Korean skincare review! I've gone through quite a few Korean skincare products looking for the perfect regime, so I'm excited to share my findings with you as I experiment. I rarely buy skincare products without searching for reviews online first, so I know what I'm looking for in reviews and hopefully can write a thorough one myself. My reviews will be long in order to be thorough, but organized in a way in which you should be able to skim through and find what you need.

I'm choosing to review this cleansing oil first because I've been using it for about a year now and have just bought my third bottle!

Review summary: This cleansing oil effortlessly removes any makeup while leaving my skin feeling moisturized and unharmed. It should be used before your usual cleanser.
