Motherhood during COVID-19
For this blog post, I am partnering with self proclaimed, “hot mess mom,” Shani of @your_daley_dose. I see you mom. I see you struggling wearing so many different hats during this quarantine.

Does “Organic Skincare” actually mean anything?
The first thing I think of when I hear the word organic is “ooohh it’s healthy!” and that can be true, but only when it applies to certain things.

Take Better Care of your Skin WITHOUT Spending Money
Overall… my skincare journey is pretty boring. I have pretty normal-combination skin. I don’t have a lot of breakouts, only hormonal ones when Aunt Flo is in town. I was never taught to care about my skin, except to wear SPF50 when I played outside. If you asked me 5 years ago what my skincare […]
PLEASE Stop Wearing Shoes Inside the House
Growing up Asian, it was a normal thing for me to remove my shoes before entering my home. When I started making “other” friends, they thought I was so weird for taking off my shoes at their house. In Asian culture, I always assumed removing your shoes was a RESPECT thing. But in reality, it […]
