Candid:


This is my favorite photo from the set because it captured exactly how I felt on the inside. When I'm shooting I go from pose to pose, but it makes me feel kind of dorky and awkward inside because I feel funny trying to be all "sexy". So when I'm on set, in between poses my photographers will randomly catch a snap that truly captures me as a person.

Gandhi:

"Don't speak if you don't have anything nice to say." That has to be one of the first lessons we learn as kids. It's hard for me to figure out why that's changed so much with the internet at our fingertips. 

Doesn't matter who you are, you have a voice. Be mindful of what you say with that voice. You can choose to spread positivity or negativity. No one is perfect, but we can try harder to be more aware of the impact we have on others. 

I constantly catch myself being negative, then I have to change my thought process to be more positive. This is the background I have on my home screen as a constant reminder that we can always change with one small step at a time. 



As a camgirl, I know that it takes a warrior with a strong AND soft heart to do what we do. Thanks to the amazing women I know & love, I learn to be stronger everyday. I cannot buy the type of personal growth I have gained from my job as a camgirl anywhere else.

Skincare Stuff

My skin's dull from traveling, drinking, dehydration & overall neglect. Good thing is with water + my favorite products, I'll be glowing in no time. So here are some of my favorites:

My Favorite Skincare Products

Here's a list of some of my favorites off the top of my head. I do not currently have all of these things because I am constantly trying products, but these are always on the back of my head as favorites that I love.

To start let's talk philosophy. There are a lot of different skincare philosophies. Asian product lines use more natural ingredients from cultural experience and history (i.e. snail, ginseng, pearl products), while Western products I believe, are more lab tested and produced (i.e. retinol/retinoid). I see pros and cons to both, so I like to mix it up as well as use very simple and basic things like aloe, argan, vitamin E/C.

This girl explains it really well here ->DIFFERENCES BETWEEN ASIAN AND WESTERN SKINCARE PRODUCTS

Me personally, when I start using solely Asian products like History of Whoo, my skin gets really dewy looking which is the desired effect of Asian skincare but in a Western culture is can easily been seen as "greasy". I find that western products can be heavy, so alternating seems to work for me. I don't recommend this if your skin is sensitive. Start slow, and add one product at a time. If you start breaking out, go back to the basics. Luckily my skin is pretty resilient to new products.

She's also really good at explaining the differences between the different products here ->THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN ESSENCE, SERUM, LOTION, AMPOULE, EMULSION, GEL, TONER, BOOSTER,CREAM, FLORAL WATER&FINISHER?

Warning on the p50 lotion, it's awesome but it will make you break out at first which is part of it's "purging" process. There are many blogs on this magical liquid. So I won't bore you with the details here.

If you don't like sunscreen. Try the Biore, I think the consistency will make it workable into anyone's daily routine.

Philosophy's Miracle Worker is just that. Those Retinoid wipes... DAMN.

Oh and do you know why Asian male stars have such pretty skin? They use a sheet face mask to hydrate their face EVERY DAY!! So you can never ever do to many face masks. "My Beauty Diary" is a cheap brand and decent brand if you really want to do that every day. But I don't remember so I'd rather do a good one when I do remember.

Is it the best on the market? How can anyone truly know, or even know what works best for them except trial and error? I always like to try new things that target my own skin problems: big pores + combination skin. Hence, my favorites may work for me but not for others. This goes for all skin bloggers. There are certain products that a lot of people/bloggers happen to like P50 Lotion is one of them.

I'd like to try: SKII, Sulwhasoo, La Mer, SkinCeuticals C E Ferulic (has been on my to try list for a long long time)

Netflix Petition

I've had these ideas for Netflix for a while and I was telling them to whoever would listen hoping that I could make a change, instead I decided to take my voice to the internet and hope others feel the same way that I do.
