ROUND LAB sources their camellia flowers from Jeju-do's little camellia town. Rich in collagen for skin-firming, camellia has great synergy with new-age retinol, HPR as well. 🌺

2025 #anime FRAGRANT FLOWER BLOOMS WITH DIGNITY is quite the slow burn at first but quickly pulls you in by episode 3. I love the agency in each character. Such a gentle story about love, learning to withhold judgment, and friendship! One of my favorites from 2025! 【8.5/10 ⭐️】

I'm at a local restaurant right now. And the table next to me seats a 42y/o white dude with his Hispanic employee. And the conversation--lecture--that the white dude is giving his employee is SO obnoxiously disgusting. I almost want to throw Shiracha at him.

🚨 2 weeks ago, the DOE defunded all Minority-Serving Institutions in higher education, which incl. Asian American, Native American, Pacific Islander-serving institutions (#AANAPISI). This administration weaponized β€œdiscrimination” & used it against historically underserved groups!! 🀬

Though I did not feel like the villains were anywhere close to the ungodly All For One, #anime MHA: YOU'RE NEXT (2024) was still very enjoyable. The action was phenomenally animated & illustrated. The contrast between Anna & Guilio's soft & hard dynamic is romantic but not overly indulgent.【10/10 ⭐️】

My sister and I tag-teamed to win all the elders. All that hard work to earn $5.00. I think we can afford half a boba tea now. We’ll have to share the boba.

JIANG ZIYA is one of the most incredibly animated films I’ve ever watched. It reimagines the mythology of the Chinese military general, centering the theme of humanity. Stunning 3D renderings w/ mesmerizing battle sequences! Most importantly, the studio knows how to tell a good story. 【10/10 ⭐️】

THE CONCIERGE is such a wholesome film. Extinct animals are served by humans (bc we are ultimately the reasons for their extinction). If you enjoy layered, vibrant storytelling & have a heart for environmentalism, you’ll find this film very enjoyable & heartwarming. 【10/10 ⭐️】

After 20 years of using Adobe for all my creative works, from videos to graphic design, I’m finally breaking up with the tyrant software company (probably my longest relationship yet). Raising their prices in this economy without actually improving their tech (AI does not count) is wild to me.

#Anime ASSASSINATION CLASSROOM is outstandingβ€”it visualizes the special relationship btwn teacher & students. Every single character is carefully designed w/ deep stories that cannot be removed from the main storyline. Exceptional writing & animation! A love letter to all educators! 【10/10 ⭐️】

FRIEREN proves that demon-slaying can be cozy. Unlike the new wave of OP #anime MCs, Frieren's development comes in the form of navigating her immortality by understanding why humans find living to be so precious.【10/10 ⭐️】

I thought it'd be cute to leave #anime CARDCAPTOR SAKURA (Eng-dub) in the background while I reorganize my skincare shelf. & that's when it hit me--we've let English voice actors and script writers get away w/ way too much in the late-90s/early-2000s! Also!!? Had Touya always been this foooine?

It’s important for me to recognize the reason I am in a position to receive these gifts & PR packages is because my subscribers trust my honest, no-BS reviews. I can’t wait to try these products for my Moonbaes β€” bc the point of my channel is to help everyone shop smarter & waste less money.

My current favorite pastime is watching videos of people publicly telling Andrew Cuomo "No" to his face in the streets of New York City. And all that schmuck could do is stretch out his face as a 'smile' with those soulless marbles he calls eyeballs. #nocuomo #vote #nyc

Accountability & update!
K-beauty brand MARY & MAY actually put words to action and updated their product packaging after they completed their last batch of manufacturing. The same sunscreen now has a new look, with β€œbrightening” instead of β€œwhitening” on the label. #kbeauty
