Korean Italy Towel Review – Why is exfoliation important
Last month, there was a short debate going around social media regarding exfoliation and the use of moisturizers. Popular skincare business woman who we will call VB published an article that as people in the tropical country, we should only exfoliate and not moisturize. I highly disagree because I think keeping our skin moisturized creates a protective barrier and makes our skin easier to exfoliate. Kikaysikat Says: Both are important.

Meaning the body takes more time to shed dead skin cells and generate new ones. When the older cells accumulate on the skin’s surface, it…

But in a nutshell an influencer is literally someone who motivates you to do the same thing he/she does. Whether working out, eating right, or purchasing that brand…

On Wearing Stylish Bras, Panties, and Consent
I was planning to write a basic article on how we can wear bras as outerwear then my emotions got the best of me. Wearing something sexy whether a bra or a thong is NOT consent. Lingerie. Bras. These garments are known for being worn inside than out. Thus the other term under wear. I shared on an Instagram post the other day that years ago, there would be guidelines on “how to take classy lingerie photos” that we’ll follow to a T. Showing “undergarments” was deemed taboo. Thanks to modern times and feminism, women are now slowly coming out of their shells. Realising we are more than just an accessory. Regardless of how a…

Real Techniques Duo Fiber Collection (Limited Edition) Review
Real Techniques Duo Fiber Collection The last time I purchased Real Techniques brushes was 3 years ago at Sephora when I was deployed in the US for 3 months as a Business Analyst. I got their.

Both the Real Techniques Blush Brush and Real Techniques Powder Brush never leave my kit (too much that I’m guilty of not washing them as often LOL). It came to a realization that I need to add more to my collection and with the my belief with “Less is More” make-up mantra, I needed brushes to do the job.
