「 20SOMETHING ・MEGACITY JAPAN ・ASIAN FASHION & BEAUTY BLOGGER 」


Why hello there .

English teacher by day and vigilante blogger at night, I enjoy travelling the world and discovering new cosmetic products especially if it has derived from Asia . I currently live in Tokyo and regularly travel inside and outside of Japan . You can also find me reading a book or two, learning a language, doing something on my Youtube channel, watching anime, going to awesome food joints and looking for the latest trends in makeup .

On my Youtube I do videos mainly on cosmetic products and travelling . On this blog you'll be able to find cosmetic reviews, fashion that I like, food recommendations, and generally a broader range of topics regarding lifestyle . This blog though mainly focuses on beauty and fashion .

Why did I decide to blog ?

I'm a traveller, I like to travel . I like to discover new things, remember them, but most importantly share them . Growing up there were a lot of lifestyle stuff that I honestly wish that I knew, and the more I discovered the more I wanted remember new things and share it to the world . There were so many things I couldn't find and it was down right frustrating . So one day, I decided, that my priority was to document this life time and share with others what I like . And no, not in a passing conversations way, but in a way that I'd like to know more about the item as well .

Moving to Tokyo and finding out more about Japanese cosmetics was a whirlwind of an experience, but it would've been easier if I knew something about it . So most importantly, I wanted to blog in order to simply let people know more about something they didn't know much about .

COSMETICS IS ...

First and foremost taking care of my skin is top priority . I've always had sensitive skin, and recently due to Japan's humid Summer weather my skin has become oily . Because of my skin sensitivity I tend to choose only Asian skin care products because of terrible bouts of irritation I've had whenever I used Western cosmetics . In my routine I focus on non-irritation, brightening, acne scar fading, deep pore cleansing and pore tightening .

When it comes to makeup, naturally I prefer wearing little to no makeup at all, so with this being said, on the regular I only really use a BB cushion and lip tint . However I do like to try different makeup styles here to there, and whenever I do it still tends to focus more on the natural side . I think it was because of this that I got attracted to using Japanese makeup, which more often than not has soft colours and a "your face but better" effect . For the most part I like choosing makeup that's long lasting, but also not too bold in colour . Also because I have a warm beige skin tone, I pick colours that complement this which is usually warm shades, or shades of red and/or orange .
