Hi everyone, welcome back to joanday.
Today, I am going to film A Day In My Life video for you guys.
Today's video is sponsored by melixir.
melixir is actually one of the first Korean vegan skincare brands I learned about.
I think, about two years ago, I received one of their products, I think it was the toner.
I was introduced to it as 100% vegan, cruelty-free, and hypoallergenic,
and this is great for sensitive skin like mine.
I also love how the packaging is sustainably made.
So I do want to share a one-brand skincare routine with all of the melixer,
not all of the melixer products, but the products that I liked personally.
We are going to start with toner to prep the skin.
This is the vegan balancing toner, and the highlighted ingredient is green tea extract.
It keeps the skin hydrated, and calm.
And if you have acne-prone skin, I would recommend it.
Because green tea is an ingredient that I fell in love with,
because it really helped me with my acne-prone skin,
treating the acne scars, I just really love green tea products.
Next, I am going to follow up with the melixer vegan bamboo serum.
This is another intensely hydrating serum that also fights visible signs with aging.
It absorbs really quickly.
And this is really going to hydrate your skin from within.
And I really love how this feels on the skin.
Next, I am going to follow up with melixer's vegan relief facial cream.
And this is a lightweight cream that is plant-based.
It is infused with hemp seed oil and green tea extract, and it smells really fresh.
I like the cool gel-like consistency.
And it glides onto my skin.
It absorbs really quickly, and it is really great for my mask-sensitive skin.
So it was actually a moisturizer I use a lot of during the summer time.
And finally for skincare, I am going to follow up with melixir sunscreen.
This is the vegan airlift sunscreen, light and easy.
And I really like the bottle.
I am just going to apply the sunscreen.
I go through sunscreens really quickly during the summer time.
Because I just like to reapply.
And whenever I go the beach, or the pool,
I end up using a lot of it because I just reapply every hour.
More than usual.
My makeup routine hasn't really changed much since, I don't know, the last time I filmed it.
It's been a while since I filmed, but I don't really do much to my face.
Just skincare and a little bit of foundation.
Powder.
My blush from 3CE. Yes, I am still using this, it hit pan.
I really like the color of this Dior one.
But something weird happened to me every time I used it.
It would be like this random pink marks on my face only when I used the Dior blush.
So I stopped using it, and it went away so.
I don't know what it is.
I don't know if you ever tried this blusher, but it actually happened to Gem as well.
I try looking for the same review on that but I couldn't find anything.
So maybe it is just our blushers?
I don't know, that is weird.
I am just going to quickly go some eye makeup.
I mean, I love the Dior makeup.
But that blusher, the color is beautiful.
But I don't know why there were these pink marks on my face.
This was very popular blush actually, on tiktok because of Kylie Jenner.
Not this coral color but the pink one, maybe the pink one doesn't do it.
I don't know but it left marks on my face.
Oh wait, my hair is not brown anymore.
Just like to even out my brows.
Like, brush it.
One direction.
Now for the lips, I am going to use melixir's vegan lip butter.
Since I am always wearing a mask anyway.
I just apply a clear one.
And then, later when I meet up with my friends,
I will add a little bit of color when we take pictures and what not.
So that's it for my quick makeup routine.
So this is my outfit of the day, I am wearing one of my favorites.
An essential in my closet which is a black leather jacket.
This one is a cropped, I got this in LA.
And then I am wearing a crop tank top, just in case it gets too hot.
But it's been rainy and gloomy all week long.
So I probably won't take this off.
But this is from, I don't remember, I got this in college.
And I wear a lot but I just don't remember where it is from.
And for accessories, I am wearing this necklace from Violina.
This initial necklace from Numbering.
These rings are from Kira N Misha.
Also from Kia N Misha, this ear cuff.
This is from Anna-Louisa, the Henna Lee collaboration.
And these studs are from Chrome Hearts.
And then, I am wearing biker shorts from Burberry.
And this bag is from by far.
And it is currently empty because I need to fill this up.
So here I have a bunch of clothes laid out.
Because originally, I was supposed to go to Di's to film some episodes today.
But it got cancelled last minute.
I am going to have to move my things into this bag.
So let me do a quick 'What's in my bag'.
Alright, let's repack.
I hope I don't forget anything.
Every time I move things from one bag to another,
I always end up forgetting something that I usually carry around with me all the time.
So, I am going to start with this powder.
Because I am looking a bit, oh my gosh I am not wearing eyeliner.
This is what happens when you do make-up in front of the viewfinders.
Hold on real quick.
Alright, much better.
I always carry around a powder,
a cushion-foundation,
hand sanitizer, of course,
hand cream and this one is from melixir, the bare hand butter.
And it actually does feel like butter.
But very smooth, and I love using it on the back of my hands because they are very dry.
This smells super fresh.
It comes in two different scents.
But this one is 'Dreaming Youth', it has very fresh scent to it, I have been loving.
And this is formulated with Shea butter, ceramide, eucalyptus leaf extract.
And it is free of artificial fragrance, very handy.
And of course, I can't forget lip products.
I always have a chapstick and a lipstick in my bag.
But these are really cool because they are tinted.
So I am just going to take one with me.
I had three originally because I was going to take them to Di's for the different episodes,
but today I am just going to carry around 'Rust Red'.
The color is maybe intimidating at first because it is very dark.
But it is actually buildable.
These come in eight different shades and four new colors have just been launched.
The Agave soothes and moisturizes my lips.
And I always have the no-color version.
The Agave by my desk, or bed.
Because I just like to just reapply throughout the day.
This is actually the one I used a lot.
Can't forget my AirPods.
My vlogging camera, and my house keys.
It fits so much.
Love this bag.
Alright, so the plan for today is, I am going to meet up with my friend Byeol-e for lunch.
And then we are going to just walk around Apgujeong Rodeo until our tattoo removal appointment.
There is a tattoo back here, it is the Scorpio logo.
But I really didn't like how he drew the arrow really thick.
And every time I have a photoshoot, I just noticed that.
So I am really nervous right now.
Because I heard tattoo removal hurts more than actually getting the tattoo done.
So I am going to get my first removal done today.
I think it will be 5-10 sessions depending on how dark and big the tattoo is.
I am going to get my tattoo removal.
And after that, I am going to a beauty event in Sungsoo-dong I think.
So I am waiting for my friend to text me back so we will see.
Ok, let's head on over to Apgujeong.
Alright. We are going to eat at Oasis.
Super cute seats in this, so nice.
Alright, Byeol-e and I are walking over to Lululemon to shop for some activewear.
Her favorite.
Normal temprature.
She is a pilates instructor and, look how cute this looks on her. So cute.
On the cab, on our way to get our tattoo removal.
I am kind of nervous.
She got it done last time, show me, and it is gone.
I had no idea she even had one.
So when I saw this, I was like, I want this.
So we are going together.
So nervous now.
I couldn't feel the laser part, but it didn't hurt that much.
We finished.
Session one, done.
Bye, Byeol-e.
Hi.
So I got dropped off in front of an apartment.
I can see a building that says Globe.
Hyundai Globe, oh it is Glovis, not Globe.
Guess who I am with.
Did it hurt? No not really.
Yes, just like a little bit.
But I think because I have done so much laser on my face, I was like, that it?
Oh my God, is it? Does it?
Alright, it is time to get some dinner. Dinner time.
Supper time.
It is a vegan brand, right?
I liked their lip balm.
Mindful skincare made from plants.
Do you like their lip balm?
I have their lip balm right now.
Really? Are you serious? Wait, it is not sponsored.
Mine is in Red.
Dewy Rose. Mine is a Dewy Rose.
I am shocked that you brought that.
I didn't even tell you I am filming a vlog today. Matchy!
Mine is very rosie, nudy.
I am so shocked that you brought that.
Alright, after dinner, time to go home.
Your husband is waiting, home is waiting.
Do I have a husband?
Alright, bye A-young.
Back home, and there was a package waiting for me from this Korean Brand.
So I am going to show you guys what's inside.
I actually heard about this brand because it is on essence.
Let me show you.
First, we have this dust bag and inside it,
there is an adorable mini bag.
This is so cute.
And this comes with a long chain that you could also wear wood.
This is a very pretty blue color.
And inside this box, we have another dust bag.
And this one, I picked out actually.
You all know how much I love red.
It will fit all of my essentials, thank you so much for sending this over.
Now, I am going to remove my makeup and start editing.
Because I have a lot of footage that hasn't been edited yet.
Thank you guys so much for watching, and I will see you guys next week.
Bye, have a joanday.
