REVIEW: Laneige Strawberry Peeling Gel



My skin type is acne-prone; semi-sensitive.

PROS:
-it's very gentle so you can use even on the most sensitive.
-smells really good! just like strawberry yogurt haha
-reveals a brighter complexion
-you can see the dead skin coming off!
-it takes out the impurities in your skin

CONS:
-hard to find in the U.S. I recommend getting it at sasa.com or facial-shop.com
-doesn't unclog pores

Overall, I think this is a good thing to have in your skincare regime. There really is nothing like it. But I also think this isn't the best exfoliator. Exfoliators should unclog pores and this one doesn't do very well. I honestly probably won't repurchase this again unless I see it somewhere here.

Ins/Outs

Ins:
Being veggie- yup, i'm trying it out. and so far i love it! it makes me make better food choices in life and honestly, i don't even miss meat!
Green Peas/Corn- SOOO GOOD. i love this combo, its sweet but in a healthy way? i love the green giant frozen green peas.
jewelry- i've been wearing just simple clothes and lots of jewelry to complement it. i was inspired by Lorraine Stanick haha
Guess for Women Parfum- sexy, feminine, tangy. and it's super strong :)
l'oreals fairest nude l/s- just a nice everyday lipstick. not too nude on me which i kinda like. sometimes nudes just make me look...weird?
maybelline pulse perfection mascara- this is the very famous vibrating mascara from the drugstore. of course i didn't pay full price for this. i paid only . . . . . . $3! I know right?!?! Target had them on sale for that low! And i bought one and a week later, bought another as a backupp. It is lengthening, curling, and defining. Provides little volume tho. Application is a breeeze.
Janes Be Pure Mineral Gel Liner- Its unforunate that this company went bankrupt and went out of business. they make great products and their gel liner is one of them. this is for all the ladies/gents with oily lids. MAC's fluidline will end up giving me raccoon eyes or creaselines. but jane's does not! :)
NARS Custard Concealer- life savior. this covers all of my blemishes. only con is that it doesn't last alll day.
froyo & bubble tea- NOM NOM NOM NOM. i just found this great froyo joint near me and it is fabulous!
MAC Grand Entrance- really nice for the inner corners. it reallly
opens out the eyes. i know you can't get this anymore but i hear Stila's Kitten e/s is a good dupe.

OUTS-
Veggie haters- nuff said.
rain and cold- WHERE IS THE SUMMER WEATHER?!
shorts shorts- um, no one wants see anyone's booty hangin' out during school. smh
coffee- i know starbucks had this happy hour thing going on. the old me would be going there everyday but i wasn't even tempted
