It’s time for the beauty lover’s 2021 gift guide! I love doing a gift guide this time of the year with my favorites for any beauty lover on your Christmas list. I picked some skincare items that work for any skin type as well as my favorite makeup items. I hope this gift guide is helpful to anyone shopping for a picky beauty lover like myself lol!
The Dr. Jart cicapair cream caught my eye while I was shopping from a holiday sale on Dr. Jart’s website. I was really curious about this cream after I had such a great experience with the Dr. Jart ceramidin cream a few months ago. I’m extremely picky about moisturizers because I have very dry skin and I live in a desert climate. I couldn’t wait to find out if the cicapair cream would be enough to hydrate my dry skin type!
The Heimish all clean cleansing balm is one of the most popular cleansing balm formulas out there! Cleansing balms are a part of the Korean double cleansing method. The double cleansing method uses an oil cleanser like this one to remove oil based impurities (makeup and sunscreen) then following up with a gentle water based cleanser for water based impurities (dirt and sweat). Let’s get into today’s review of the Heimish cleansing balm!
I couldn’t wait to try the Dr. Jart ceramidin cream after hearing so many great things about Dr. Jart’s ceramidin line. I’m already a huge fan of their ceramidin sheet mask so I had a good feeling about the cream since ceramides are incredible for hydrating dry skin and protecting the skin barrier. This was actually my first time trying a full sized Dr. Jart product as opposed to a sheet mask. Let’s get into today’s review to see if this moisturizer was a winner!
I’m so excited to review the Banila Co. cleansing balm which was one of the first products I started using when I got into K-beauty five years ago. Cleansing balms are used in the double cleansing method which begins by removing makeup and sunscreen with an oil based cleanser like this one then following up with your typical foaming water based cleanser. Let’s get into today’s review!
