One of the first makeup I ever bought with my own money is a liquid eyeliner from Ever Bilena. I was in college and wanted to learn how to finally apply eyeliner, but I only had a student budget! I remember bending in front of the mirror just putting it on, messing it up, and redoing it again and again until I got it right. BB Liz wasted so much product, but in the end I became more confident in going out with self-applied eyeliner for the first time. Eyeliner was my thing in college - I’d go to classes with full eye makeup ad thick cat eyes. That was my emo phase, haha, and it will always be a part of me.

We all have that Ever Bilena story. I bet most of us learned how to apply makeup with this brand!

Ah, the excitement of new makeup and skincare just never gets old. When you think everything’s on the market already, brands surprise us with something to discover and fall in love with. Hmm, perhaps one (or more) of the recent releases below is the next product that will capture your beauty heart.

Kiehl’s fans rejoiced in 2020 when the brand finally launched their LazMall Store to provide greater online access to Kiehl's products from the comfort of our homes. They featured curated sets from celebrities then but I also shared my personal favorites as I have quite a few from the brand.

The year, Kiehl's topped in Lazada for the Super Brand Opening and their Super Brand Day in 2021. For this year's Super Brand Day on May 25, Kiehl’s has lined up pretty exciting things for us!

Have you heard about NACIFIC? It’s a K-beauty brand that’s been quietly getting a strong following recently. It stands for Naturalistic, Affordable, Clean, Innovative, Fresh, Iconic, and Caring. Their approach is a trendy minimalist aesthetic coupled with formulations that spotlight nature-derived healthy ingredients to relax the skin. It is an inclusive brand, because each product line targets specific skin concerns. There’s the Fresh Cica Plus (acne care/anti-inflammatory), Pink AHA/BHA (exfoliating), and Blackhead All Kill (pore refining) to name a few. But their all-time bestsellers are still the OG Fresh Herb Origin line and their brightening Phyto Niacin line!
