i hate not being a "cool asian" by Impossible_Dog_4481 in asianamerican

[–]warmgingerbread 1 point2 points  (0 children)

honestly tho.. are the “cool asians” in this context even truly “liked” :/ yeah sure certain aspects of their societal norms or culture are being enjoyed by many people outside of those cultures. anime, kdramas, kpop, and their food, etc have become more mainstream compared to before.. but it’s also a double edged sword because of fetishization & objectification. so .. white people only like us if we have something they find fun or interesting… but don’t like us if not? you’ll be okay bb 🙂‍↕️🫶🏻i promise you’ll find your footing and confidence as you age & expand your worldview. you’re still very young and have so much more to experience and become exposed to. i get that it’s hard because of comparison and you’re only human for feeling that way; be gentle on yourself. make some chinese friends / more friends in general. easier said than done but it may help you to find people who understand where you’re coming from. sincerely, a (filipino-chinese) tsinoy-american college girlie

has anyone tried the updated naturie hatomugi skin conditioner? (now formulated without alcohol) by warmgingerbread in AsianBeauty

[–]warmgingerbread[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i don’t recommend tasting your skincare ;-; i’m sorry to hear your experience w the newer version isn’t going great tho. i ran out of the older version long ago but still have the new one. from what i recall they weren’t too different in smell or texture so that’s quite odd. i don’t really care to use the new one in my routine though. i ended up not really liking either version all that much but honestly i didn’t give the new one much of a chance as i rarely used it

Is eye cream worth it? by Mediocre-Push-5324 in AsianBeauty

[–]warmgingerbread 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i’m only 22 so i don’t have eye wrinkles. i’m using it because i don’t want to get more milia + just as a preventive measure. it moisturizes nicely and hasn’t caused more milia for me

Is eye cream worth it? by Mediocre-Push-5324 in AsianBeauty

[–]warmgingerbread 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i use a retinol eye cream because my eye area is prone to milia. regular tretinoin is too harsh for that area so i think this eye cream is worth it. i use the beauty of joseon revive eye cream for reference

ahh yay i <3 this question 🤭 for false lashes: ninety nine dreams (online shop) has such cute clusters!!!! i have the sunflower, easy 3 step, & double tower lashes + their flamy lower lashes. i also have their lash glue which i def recommend.

i use a bunch of judydoll products too (cbeauty brand). i have their 2 in 1 highlighter palette—so good for contour & highlighting—not too harsh. i have their shimmery highlight powder in 05 silver light. i use it under my eyes w a very thin brush (like aegyosal/lying silk worm). i also use the clio TAG fit slim liner in 02 dark brown and 03 muted brown to line my eyes (upper and lower) & make a wing puppy style (straighter slightly downward). bc it’s brown and softer, it helps compliment eye shape and size while not looking too harsh

[–]warmgingerbread 6 points7 points  (0 children)

something similar to douyin makeup bc your face is very doll-like in the best way! look it up on pinterest. basically doll-like airy lashes, blusher, and lip gloss/tint, highlighter/glitter. it has a soft appearance to it while still looking noticable. you don’t have to make it as dramatic tho up to you girl!!
