Dr. Jart+ Cicapair Tiger Grass Color Correcting Sunscreen Review

This color-correcting physical sunscreen helps offset redness, and provides a matte finish. It also contains tiger grass, which helps soothe skin.

Dr. Jart+ Cicapair Tiger Grass Color Correcting Treatment was one of the sunscreens included in the Sephora Sun Safety Kit this year. It’s also something I never would have bought individually, so I was happy to get the chance to try it out. If you read my article on the best sunscreens in the Sephora Sun Safety Kit, you know that it was also one of only six sunscreens in this kit that could legitimately claim to protect against UVA1, UVA2, and UVB rays.

Glow Recipe Watermelon Glow Pink Juice Moisturizer Review

A Korean beauty gel moisturizer with watermelon and other natural extracts, without the dyes (but a somewhat strong fragrance).

Glow Recipe is a really trendy Korean beauty brand with an attractive website. However, it’s a bit on the pricier side, so I was happy to snag myself a free mini bottle of Glow Recipe Watermelon Glow Pink Juice Moisturizer as part of my last Sephora order (thanks to /r/SkincareAddiction for the heads-up!).

Frudia Citrus Brightening Cream Review

This moisturizer renews and brightens your skin with tangerine extract and other beneficial ingredients. Plus, the jar is really cute.

As I was browsing the K-Beauty section at CVS a few weeks ago, the Frudia Citrus Brightening Cream caught my eye. When I scanned the ingredient list, the most intriguing one was also the first: citrus unshiu peel extract. I decided to give it a try to see if it would be able to live up to its “brightening” claim.
