My Can't Live Withouts: What's On My Bathroom Counter

July 04, 2017 in Personal, Beauty

It has been more than a year since I walked you through my favorite products. Last time, I emptied out the contents of my makeup kit. This time, I'm going to show you what I keep on my bathroom counter. 

 Impress Manicure  Limited Edition Set  in Lavender Broken Glass - Kiss Me Quick. A whole bunch of Ardell Lashes Demi Wispies. 

Impress Manicure Limited Edition Set in Lavender Broken Glass - Kiss Me Quick. A whole bunch of Ardell Lashes Demi Wispies. 

I'm learning now that it's the details that matter. If I have my nails done and some lashes, I feel one million times more confident. Okay, and my eyebrows. But I already talked about all my brow products in my last beauty post and that routine won't change until I get microblading done so.....

  Bobbi Brown Artist Palette for Lips

Bobbi Brown Artist Palette for Lips

This lip palette gets it all done. It's 54 shades of her bestselling lip colors ranging from nudes to reds. I love mixing up custom colors so all I need is this and a lip brush and I can create any shade I want. I find that this palette works best if you're trying to customize nude lip colors. Sometimes I want a little more pink in my nude lip. Sometimes I want a little more brown. Even though this palette is a bit pricey at $220, it's still a lot cheaper and takes up way less space than buying 54 different lipsticks. 

 NYX Cosmetics  Slim Lip Pencil  in Hot Red. Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics  Lip Tar Stained Gloss  in Meta. 

NYX Cosmetics Slim Lip Pencil in Hot Red. Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics Lip Tar Stained Gloss in Meta. 

Of course, sometimes I want that perfect shade of red and I don't want to mix it up since putting on a red lip already takes up a bit of time. OCC Lip Tar in Meta is a warm, orangey flourescent red that looks great on every skin tone. It's super pigmented too so be careful when applying and make sure to use a lipliner to prevent bleeding. Not pictured is MAC Cosmetics Lipstick in Lady Danger, which I keep in my purse for touchups. 

 Morphe Cosmetics  35U Shimmer Palette  (currently sold out). 

Morphe Cosmetics 35U Shimmer Palette (currently sold out). 

I started wearing teal eyeliner and now I'm obsessed with 80s style, colored eyeshadow so I've been experimenting with this palette. Blue eyeshadow and red lips? YES PLEASE. 

 MAC Cosmetics Prep + Prime. 

MAC Cosmetics Prep + Prime. 

I honestly have to thank fellow blogger and close friend of mine, Markie Meghan, for introducing me to this product. Seriously, it is the holy grail primer for me. I spray it on before I start my makeup. I spray it on after I'm finished with my makeup to get rid of that yucky, cakey powdery look. I bring it to the pool with me and spray it all over my face and neck throughout the day. (Pro tip: Markie told me to refrigerate it and then keep it in a cooler when using it at the pool. She's right. It's heaven on earth.)

 Becca Cosmetics  Ultimate Coverage Foundation  in Buttercup. 

Becca Cosmetics Ultimate Coverage Foundation in Buttercup. 

I very rarely buy the same foundation twice. Before this foundation, I was obsessed with Milk Makeup's Sunshine Skin Tint. And before that one, I went through a phase where Estée Lauder Doublewear Foundation was my go-to. Anyway, the Becca Cosmetics Ultimate Coverage Creme Foundation in Buttercup is my latest foundation craze this summer and so far, so good. It matches my tan and evens out my complexion without looking like a mask. By the way, I still use a damp Beauty Blender to apply my foundation. 

 MDSolarSciences  Mineral Tinted Suncreen  SPF 30. 

MDSolarSciences Mineral Tinted Suncreen SPF 30. 

I used to never wear sunscreen but I'm getting better at putting it on regularly. This one makes it less ghostly looking because it's tinted and matte. Now there's no excuse. 

 Eva NYC  Mane Tamer  Leave-In Cream.

Eva NYC Mane Tamer Leave-In Cream.

Eva NYC is Amika's non-salon brand. Mane Tamer smells really good and moisturizes my super-processed hair and make it easier to comb through after my showers. I also like that the bottle is pink. 

 Farmacy  Green Clean Makeup Meltaway .

Farmacy Green Clean Makeup Meltaway.

This stuff melts away everything, even the gunky, stubborn lash glue that never wants to come off with micellar water or regular eye makeup remover. It also removes water resistant sunscreen. I have another jar in the shower too. 

 Philip Thomas Roth  Cucumber Gel Mask . 

Philip Thomas Roth Cucumber Gel Mask. 

Wow, this blog post is heavy on the skin and hair care products. That's because I'm going thru what's on my bathroom counter, not my makeup bag. To see what I keep in there, check out this blog post. This Cucumber Gel Mask calms dry, irritated sensitive skin, which is my skin. You're supposed to leave it on for 10 minutes then rinse it off but I've worn it overnight before and it's fine. It feels nice and cold and leave my skin soft. 

 Becca Cosmetics  Shimmering Skin Perfector  in Opal. 

Becca Cosmetics Shimmering Skin Perfector in Opal. 

The OG highlighter. Still the best one, in my opinion. I put this on the tip of my nose, my browbones, my cheekbones, and my cupid's bow after I've applied my setting powder. It helps prevent that yucky, matte look and puts the dimension back in your face. I have the powder version of this product too and can't decide which one I like better. I use Opal but if you're darker, I would go with Topaz or Rose Gold instead. 

 Pacifica Hand Cream in Tahitian Gardenia. 

Pacifica Hand Cream in Tahitian Gardenia. 

I have Freddie Kruger hands. They're wrinkly, boney, veiny and really ugly. If I don't have my nails done and a ton of hand cream, I basically have the hands of a 967 year old man. 

 Fresh  Rose Face Mask .

Fresh Rose Face Mask.

This is another cooling, hydrating mask for sensitive, dry skin like mine. I keep it in the fridge because I like how it feels when it's super cold. It gets rid of any puffiness, redness and dullness. Also, it's gentle enough that you can put it on and leave it on for a while or just sleep in it.

This hairstyle was so easy, I literally styled it while standing in the wind and using my car window as a mirror. I pinned the sides back from my face with two bobby pins and then I braided just the length of my hair down the side before using a dark ponytail holder to secure it. Then I tied my new @asos_us pineapple hair scarf into a bow on top of my head, leaving out a few pieces in the front.

I got this foundation in Y360 - Medium with Golden Undertones. I was very skeptical about this product bc I wasn’t very impressed with their eyeshadow palette (although I attribute that more to them sending me the wrong color palette than I usually like to wear). Let’s talk about this foundation now. First, it is a medium coverage formula and it comes in a very attractive squeeze tube. It’s not full coverage but enough to cover any imperfections like uneven skin tone or dark spots. There is SPF 25 built in but if you take a flash photo, there is no flashback that I noticed. Another thing I liked was how it had the expiration date on the package bc I can never remember how old my bottles are. You’ll need a good primer underneath bc it was not easy to blend, even with my trust beauty blender. And even then, it kept moving around on my face. So that was a big disappointment. It wasn’t the right formula for me but maybe it will work for you. .

Two Asian American Role Models For National Girl Crush Day
Two Asian American Role Models For National Girl Crush Day
about 2 weeks ago

April 27th is National Girl Crush Day. The first time National Girl Crush Day appeared on my radar was in 2015 when I saw a bunch of people tweeting about it and nominating women and girls who were inspirations to them. I want to nominate and talk about two women I've been following closely this past year: Ruby Ibarra and Ellen Pao. 

A Brief History of Red Lipstick
A Brief History of Red Lipstick
about 3 weeks ago

I've been wearing a lot of red lately. Sometimes it's been a pop of red lipstick or red nails. Sometimes it's my entire outfit, from my lipstick all the way to my bag. No other color represents love, strength and passion the way red does. It is the color of extremes. Our prehistoric ancestors saw red as the color of fire and blood – energy and primal life forces – and most of red’s symbolism today arises from its powerful associations in the past.

Weed The People: The Case For Full Legalization

A lot of the backlash and unwillingness to legalize and decriminalize is because of bias. When it comes down to it, those not in support of weed just don't like the kinds of people who use weed and want to see them punished. The national attitude about weed is changing along with attitudes about the criminal justice system. In the words of Kylo Ren, "let the past die. Kill it if you have to."

Where Was Crazy Rich Asians When I Was A Teenager?
about 4 months ago

Nobody ever tells stories about attractive, young, modern, fashionable, and progressive-thinking Asians. It's always tragedy, martial arts revenge stories and "immigrant porn". So my initial impression after reading Crazy Rich Asians was that it was a story that had nothing to do with being Asian. But at the same time, it had everything to do with being Asian because every single character is Asian or Asian American.

I cancelled the Oscars viewing party I had planned for tonight because of the giant Baltimore power outage and then 15 minutes later, it came back on. Welp.

Net neutrality isn’t dead yet — only one more vote is needed to pass a Senate resolution to block the repeal. Today is #SaveTheInternet day. 
Hopefully they do what’s right.

I covered the @bowlerobowl Grand Opening Party yesterday and had a blast! I love how Bowlero is such a fresh take on the traditional bowling alley. It's very youthful and has a casino-like atmosphere. Think of a bowling alley but for the Instagram and Snapchat crowd. #bebowled
