Chances are if you’re reading this, you’ve probably been shaving your legs, underarms and even certain other places for a few years now, maybe even (gasp!) a few decades…and like with most things, we get into the same old routine and the same old ways of doing things, even if those ways might not be necessarily be good for our skin.
I usually get questions on what I (as a vegetarian) eat during my trips, most especially in countries where most of their main dishes are heavy on meat. Since I usually travel in Japan and Korea, I listed some of my usual orders whenever I visit two of my favorites countries in the world!
If you are updated with my Instagram Stories (@anagon), you'll know how crazy I am with online shopping. I buy my groceries online, shop for most of my clothes online, and even purchase random stuff online, haha! Fellow homebodies, I'm sure a lot of you can relate! 😁
Aside from my
favorite Kbeauty app Althea Korea, one of my favorite shopping apps is
Shopee. Just because Shopee offers almost all the things that I need--not just from beauty or fashion finds, but LAHAT TALAGA! Haha!
I'm sharing here some of my recent acquisitions, and yep, these are all from my Shopee shopping streak. Feel free to share to me your own Shopee Wishlist in the comment box below! ❤ I'm planning on having monthly giveaways, and might get ideas for next prizes from actual readers of this blog hehehe.
I went back through my account and realized that I've been buying most of my authentic Kbeauty essentials from
Althea Korea for two years now (since January 2017). My first purchase included my first Laneige skincare and makeup--copying the products that Kim Bok Joo used in the Korean drama! HAHA!
Since then, I've come to appreciate having daily skincare routine using Korean products. I am a fan of their ingredients (they carry a lot of products targeting acne prone skin), price range (affordable, not as expensive as most western brands), cutest PACKAGING, and of course the fact that they are very very EFFECTIVE. I haven't gone to a facial clinic for a while now and I'd like to think having lesser acne and breakouts were results of my dedication to Korean multi skincare steps every night.
Your tropical girl here used to think that snow is only during December (because Christmas = Snow lols), but now I realized that winter in Korea stretches till February. In short, pwede pa humabol ngayon din! Hehe!
I experienced some of the best winter moments in my life during my Korea birthday trip last January 2018 (my first snow though was in 2013 in the US with my family). Beautiful snowfall in Seoul, sliding in ice, warm facial and massage while it's cold outside, and even tried skiing for the very first time!
If you have flights booked this month or next, or itching to go spontaneous and book tickets right about now, here are some winter activities you should check out on your Great Winter in Korea Trip!
I almost forgot about this Money Challenge that I started New Year of 2018. I remembered it now lang when my Ate shared a new Money Challenge that we will try for this year... I will also share this later in this post.
But before that! Let me share to you muna how my Invisible Money Challenge for 2018 went, and kung ano nga ba sya, san ko gagamitin yung money, etcetera. Naisip ko lang gawin nading blogpost since nakakuha ako ng good feeback sa money counting on my Instagram Stories.. saktong clickbait material! Big lol! 😂😂✌️
