For better mental health, I like visiting a park or garden. There’s something about the greenery and being outdoors that makes me let go of stress. It puts into perspective that maybe things aren’t that bad. Plus, they’re pretty 💐 I love being a tourist in my own city because…

Flushing, Queens just keeps giving me more reasons to visit. Aside from the myriad of Asian food choices, there is a ton of beauty shopping unlike any other location in NYC. Opened about a year ago and situated right on Roosevelt Ave, it’s easy to find and within one block…

This Aritaum location has been opened since 2017 [and now reportedly closed since the beginning of 2019] and it’s brighter, shinier and more English-friendly than then old Amore location on Catherine Street. I had wondered if the Amore store was going to close in favor of this one, but it’s…
This Aritaum location has been opened since 2017 and it's brighter, shinier and more English-friendly than then old Amore location on Catherine Street. I had wondered if the Amore store was going to close in favor of this one, but it's still in operation as of a few weeks ago. Ever since Racked wrote an article that Amore Pacific planned to open a total of 70 Aritaum stores, I was all for it! It's a simple store set-up with just six Amore Pacific brands: Laneige, IOPE, Sulwhasoo, Mamonde, Hanyul and Aritaum. All of these brands range in target demo, price range and main ingredient. The Aritaum stores in New York City are very small compared to what you can find in Korea (or suburban neighborhood that simply has more space) but it does the job in providing access to some of K-beauty's most coveted brands.
Beauteque gave me a preview of their amazing K-Beauty Black Friday deals! If you’re just starting out your K-Beauty skincare journey, these deals are meant to be for you! They have deals going on their retail site, Beauteque.com and their subscription site, BeautequeMonthly.com. I did a full unboxing of their 100 Sheet Mask Vault, their premium Beauty Box and Mask Maven box on my YouTube channel! The unboxing was INSANE! Every order will be slightly different than my unboxing so you won’t get exactly the same items I showed but it will be very similar. You won’t see the deals listed on their website yet so this blog post and my channel is the first to divulge all the Korean Beauty sale deets! Beauteque’s Black Friday Sale starts exactly at 12:01 AM EST, Friday 11/23 through 11:59 PM EST, Sunday 11/25. Click through to preview it all!

It’s been a while since I’ve unboxed any beauty subscription boxes but I have a Beauteque’s August Beauty Box to share with you. This month is the cutest theme, “But First, Brunch.” I love eating and I love skincare, so why not have my skincare look like my favorite brunch items? This was a PR gift and if you use CECI25 at checkout, it’s 25% off your first month if you wish to subscribe (I get no commission). The BB (Beauty Box) will have 6 full sized items every month and the more months you subscribe, the better the deal. Beauteque also has a Mask Maven monthly subscription that features 9 masks as well! It’s essentially a mystery box but they’ll reveal 3 items every month if you’re curious.
