You betcha🩷 I'm blessed with normal/combo skin, and like you I live in the South, In sweaty/steamy Florida. But as I preserve myself in A/C ( menopause never left me) it can be drying. And if those SoKo beauties look like porcelain so can I🥰
Thanks for sharing! I've resolved to be more focused on my skincare routine in 2025, so always love hearing the products others are loving. When do you incorporate your Therawand into your routine?
That lives on the coffee table! Probably once a day I will reach for it while I'm watching TV or hanging out. Or if I wake up puffy it's the first thing I grab after my coffee :)
Also random question for you-- The Stripe was the first place I heard about Sarah Creal and now I'm seeing the concealer all over TikTok, albeit the reviews on Sephora are pretty bad. Have you tried?
Oh funny! I am not on TikTok but a reader had mentioned the reviews are bad-- I personally LOVE! I featured it in my best purchases of the year post last week!
I would say try it. It's my #1 right now! I just deep-dived the sephora reviews and saw some people complain that it was too dry; but I use an eye cream before so don't have any issue. It's so interesting; not every product is for everyone I guess!
YES I'm so glad you love the Topicals eye masks too. I feel like I'm shouting about them at the top of my lungs and people don't believe me! (I get it, I feel like many eye masks are kind of a hoax, but these BRIGHTEN for real)
I wish I could both wear and try some of these things but both my budget now and my skin is reacting with Rosacea and even dryness and Seb Dermatitis . . I wish they would make a line for us really sensitive girls. I never had this at 40 something . And yes, I’ve been to many very good Derms. But, your skin looks great Grace!
Adore this comprehensive review. Would love to gift you something from my highly concentrated Korean inspired skincare line Sabbatical Beauty to test and review if you’re interested!
I recently bought the YSE lip mask thanks to your recommendation— it’s the BEST! Thank you for sharing it.
oh yay! I really love it too!
I got a free bottle of U Beauty cleanser and wish I didn't know how good it is... unreal
omg. It’s SO GOOD. I was gifted a bottle ages ago and it’s still one of the best I’ve tried!
I love your maintenance I'm ~30 yrs older than you I basically do about the same but with k beauty products. It works!!
Love this!!!! I think it’s so important <3

Great overview—much appreciated! Do you ever include a hyaluronic acid in your routine? If so, what’s your favorite?
I don't currently, but I loved Biossance's peptide serum which is packed with HA!
