COLOR WOW Raise the Root spray Liked
COLOR WOW Raise the Root spray. I found out about this on TikTok. I spray when damp and it DOES give my flat Asian hair volume. I don't know how it works, but it does.

Clarins lip comfort oil Loved
Clarins lip comfort oil. Maybe my favorite lip tint, and I own like 35.

Nippon Kodo Mori-no-KOH incense Loved
Nippon Kodo Mori-no-KOH incense. I love this! Incredible bang for your buck, the little box feels so fancy, it smells insane. I'm burning it right now as I write.

Olaplex conditioner Liked
Olaplex conditioner. I have the shampoo too but I'm pretty sure the conditioner is what makes my hair bizarrely soft.

NARS soft matte concealer Loved
NARS soft matte concealer. This is the BEST concealer. I've used this for many years and I will never quit it. There is no comparable one for acne.

DedCool Milk detergent Liked
DedCool Milk detergent. Yes, it's probably all over your Instagram ads. Yes, it is good! This scent is what originally kicked off my lactonic fixation.

Uniqlo v-neck cashmere sweater Recommends
Uniqlo v-neck cashmere sweater. It is very, very, very important to own at least one of these. I suggest the black one in one size larger than your normal size.

Brandy Melville underwear and sweaters Liked
Brandy Melville underwear and sweaters. 100% cotton and I can't believe how good they are for how cheap they are. I've owned a couple of their sweaters for like eight years and they really hold up.

Comme Si workout socks Loved
Comme Si workout socks. These come in amazing colors and are too cute to really work out in but I love them.

Dyson vacuum Loved
Dyson vacuum. The laser light thing makes me happy. I never vacuumed before I got this, which meant my apartment was constantly in dire straits since I am the proud owner of two extremely fluffy dogs. I love it.

PanOxyl pimple patches Recommends
PanOxyl pimple patches. These are not as fun as Starface/my cute anime character patches but ridiculously better than any other ones on the market.
avabear.xyz 2025-12-09
Oura ring Loved
My Oura ring. I hesitated for a long time but it sparks joy. I think Apple Watches are ugly and I didn't like the Whoop nearly as much. I love checking the app every day.
