winter skincare rotation • my skincare routine consists of 3-7 products (+ sunscreen!) These day’s, I’m only focused on hydrating & occlusive elements (in the AM I use Shea Butter, PM: its Vaseline).

Unfortunately I still haven’t adjusted to this dry desert climate and I’m seeing the results of it more on my body — my eczema is back! 😩

If y’all have any tips on what I should buy (I’m thinking starting first with exchanging my shower valve). But I’m also into products.

Lemme know.

🧖🏾‍♀️Tag me in your skincare shelfie, would love to see what products you’re using! 🧖🏾‍♀️

brown skin girl 👏🏾 2019 was spent foundation free and honestly I loved it! When I’m not at the office, I wear tinted moisturizer, concealer, bronzer for eyeshadow & face, alternate between eyeliner or mascara, add highlighter and end with a gloss or lipstick that I bought in Detroit.

Sidenote: if you ever catch me IRL, I’m almost always wearing a Headwrap, its my favorite way to appreciate my culture and accessorize.

What’s your beauty routine look like?

What states have you been too? What’s next on your list? Any repeat USA cities?

sponsored • My NYE’s resolution was to cut back on my overseas adventures and spend some quality time exploring the USA (I hit 9 states!) #drivemazda

I’m proud to admit that I actually enjoyed myself. Especially, because I was nervous to venture off to states like Indiana or deeper into smaller towns in Texas or pondering on potential encounters while chilling on the beaches of Cape Cod.

I want you to know that I encountered people being people. Most were indifferent, some curious, a few bad, while others were welcoming...

It definitely has been an interesting 8 months and I wouldn’t trade this experience for the world.

Cuz like, why did no one tell me that America is Beautiful. The trees, the mountains, the seas. I understand why songs have been written.

I’m so eager to explore more of the USA and am a huge fan of repeating cities.

I hope this resonated with you and if you were on the fence but traveling around the USA, I say give it a go. We definitely have a sordid history & present — but I wouldn’t let that stop you.

So if you get a chance this weekend, please get out and explore. Drive to the next town/state, and let your adventurer senses take over. #feelalive #87pages

Beauty Bits 🧖🏾‍♀️ Cleansers I’ve been rotating all summer and taking into A/W.

Featured:

@sokoglam | * coconut cleansing pads, perfect for removing sunscreen + makeup. I use this sparingly because there are only 40 pads & cuz it Feels super luxurious for the skin.

@murad | * my first Western cleanser and I’m very impressed! I use this when my skin needs to feel refreshed & reinvigorated.

@kravebeauty | an antioxidant cleanser that doesn’t strip my skin of its natural barrier, I reach for this when my skins needs a bit of tlc.

@bemusedkorea | this buttery balm is my first reach for removing makeup & sunscreen, because it’s easy and it takes me forever to get through. Love that it melts into oil on contact with skin.

@sokoglam | * foams aren’t my go-to, so I was delightfully surprised that this whip cleanser was super gentle on the skin and didn’t leave it tight. Note: it has a ph. 6.5 & made of EWG Green level ingredients.

Let’s Chat: What Cleansers are in your Rotation? Any recommendations for me to test out?

The heart knows no other delight but the joy in wandering. 🗓 Several trips on the autumn horizon planned and I’m working to squeeze in one more, because if not now. When?

All my travels will take place in the USA, some will be first times, others repeaters, but all with people I treasure.

On another note, I am planning a solo trip very soon, have this urge to move beyond the noise... any suggestions on where to go for solo travel... in the USA or Mexico? // #87pages

👋🏾 Oh hey there! It’s me, Star... and yes that is my real name.
.
.
I was about 7 when I realized my name was unusual - we were on a field trip, the bus lady asked me my name, I responded - and she said “whatever happened to normal names like Alice + Mary?” My teen years & early adulthood my name was seen as raunchy & I’ll let you imagine the questions I was asked smh ... but it wasn’t until my 25th Birthday, that I began embracing my name and appreciating it’s uniqueness.
.
.
During my travels to Asia I realized the importance of a name: the constant requests to use a nickname or being given a western name because so often their told “your name is to difficult to pronounce” - I found those moments freakishly parallel to Black American culture where you’re teased if you’re name is too ethnic/ghetto — and I know for a fact it happens within other cultures/ethnic groups...
.
.
As I’ve traveled and learned from different cultures, I’ve learned the importance of controlling your narrative, explicitly stating who you are, and reveling in it. So yup, my name is Star, just like in the sky.

Falling back into my hermit ways and surrounding myself with my first loves - books. Lately, I’ve been on a classic literature kick, so my November TBR list involves T Morrison, E Hemingway, JD Salinger, & DH Lawerence. ✨Currently I’m reading ‘Go Tell It On the Mountain’ by James Baldwin and it’s intense, triggering, and I have to stop myself from speeding through it! 📖 What are you currently reading? Anything to suggest? Doesn’t have to be a classic. #87pages

to West Texas (where it’s still Summer!), & yesterday I moved into my new apartment! 😅

Minimal Korean Skincare Routine with HYGGEE. Perfect for those days when you can't commit to a 10-step routine and 4 will do. http://liketk.it/2t4FQ #liketkit @liketoknow.it

It's been 7 days since I tasted kimchi, been scolded for my horrible Korean pronunciation (by my foreigner friends), struggle jogged to catch the subway, been complimented on my pretty face but side eyed about my waist by ahjumma, and listened to ahjussi rant & rave during my weekday taxi run. 😩 I miss Korea. Miss my Melanin Crew, my Fridays with Hallie, chatting K-beauty w/my luvvlies, my wine-downs w/my friendlies, cafe hopping, Seoul, & my favoritest people. ✨ The only perk is that I'm near Sephora (hello, @FentyBeauty) and I'm high-key living the life in Cape Cod ... and the beach is literally down the street. But I still miss my home... 🇰🇷 http://liketk.it/2sIag #liketkit @liketoknow.it

The countdown (😭) starts now! Soon the husband and I will be saying farewell to South Korea and find beginning a new adventure in America (thanks Army 😒). 🇰🇷 Korea was our home for technically 3 years and we're going to miss it! I'm stocking up on Korean skincare & trying to eat my weight in kimchi before the flight! 😂🤷🏾‍♀️

👉🏾 Here's a fun game: Can you guess where we're going next in the USA? 🇺🇸

"Decide What You Want. Write that ish down. Make a plan... and work on it every single F'ng Day!" - Sean "Diddy" Combs 🌸 For the past year, I became so annoyed that there wasn't events for global influencers in South Korea. So, I decided to do it myself! Over the weekend, I hosted my first global event in South Korea - the Seoul Bloggers Brunch! 🥂It was insane from start to finish & I have to thank my co-hosts & sponsors for helping to make a successful event! 🌼 I'll be posting a full recap of the event on 87PAGES.com, but for now I'm diving into my k-beauty goodies cuz this girl needs some self-care! 💕

Sippin' Rosé. Cotton Candy + Decadent Chocolate. Photoshoots in the streets of Seoul. That's how I like to spend my afternoons.🌸 Spent a chill day, exploring the hip (is it still hip, if I say hip?) neighborhood of Hannam, with my luvvlies @UrbanWit + Baby Luna. ✨

Bodak Yellow 🌼 For the first time in my adult life, I didn't mentally chide myself to suck it in or obsessively try to smooth out the rolls. I'm less focused on my body and that feels good as hell! Another perk is not having to overthink my poses to hide my belly, cuz y'all I'm low key obsessed 😘 #bodyneutral #bodyneutrality
