HOLIDAY SKINCARE
advent Calendars + sales + discounts + more

This year I have spent a great deal of time unboxing curated beauty boxes, most of them documented here (Youtube). The infatuation started because I realized it was a really great way to explore K beauty. Learning about new-to-me brands and restocking some of my favorites at discount.

For a skincare enthusiast, advent calendars and holiday sales are like the fun-lympics of the year because there are so many sales between October - December! You have the bundle and save discounts, the advent calendars, and brands trying to clear out stock to make room for seasonally packaged items and next season’s soft launch drops.

All to say, being in this beauty and skincare space for as long as I have, it is so easy to quickly accumulate a ton of products. Some new and un-open, some gently used etc.

I say all this to invite you to check out some of the products I have unboxed this year, what I have used, what barely went touched and how many times I have re-filled the one specific product that I can’t seem to stop using.
