Dr. Morita Caviar Moisturizing Essence Facial Mask

Another day, another sheet mask review.  This has become an instant temporary new hobby of mine. 😀

This sheet mask is from Taiwan from the Dr. Morita brand.  This one is the “Caviar Moisturizing Essence Facial Mask.”  We all know that caviar is one of the finer more expensive products in life, so why not try it on a mask and soak some of the essence on your skin?  XD.

The compact sleek blue box that I Continue reading

Wow, I did not like this sheet mask at all from Papa Recipe.  This is the Bombee Ginseng Red Honey Oil Mask Pack.

All was well as usual as I opened the packaging.  There is a cute depiction of a yellow honeypot on the front of the box.  There are 10 sheet masks inside the box and again like the other Continue reading

雲桂香米線專門店 (Rice noodles restaurant)

雲桂香米線專門店 Tai Kok Tsui

雲桂香米線專門店 located at 56 Ivy Street in Tai Kok Tsui in Hong Kong

This restaurant is all about quick-serving rice noodles in soup.  If you don’t like rice noodles in soup, get out (to so many other options just a few steps away).

I couldn’t find an English name for this restaurant, so 雲桂香米線專門店  it is.  It’s literally a specialized restaurant for rice noodles.  Continue reading

Papa Recipe Bombee Fruitables “Yellow Squeeze Brightening Mask”

This sheet mask is from Papa Recipe, a Korean brand interestingly with its office in Scarborough, Ontario.  It’s called “Bomboo Fruitables ‘Yellow Squeeze Brightening Mask'”.  Having “bright”, clear, unblemished faces is always the goal in Asian beauty trends (they idolise this rather than having golden tans).

This packaging was unique since Continue reading

Shockingly, this brand of facial sheet mask called Annabella from Thailand works amazingly and is so hydrating!! :O

I was at Watsons and wanted to buy some facial masks to try (sheet masks galore in Asia).  This bright pink and rather nondescript box with rudimentary Comic Sans font of face masks was on sale and one of the cheapest ones in the store (originally priced Continue reading
