Happy New Year Everyone! We see another year ending and I'm so glad to be able to accomplish so much in the past 365 days. I'm very thankful as I take a look back at my adventures in beauty (or what I personally call "ka-artehan"). I hope to have more opportunities to discover more great products in the coming year.
