Nagomi Cake House - Gardena

Nagomi cake house recently opened in Gardena. It's Japanese cakes, so it's not too sweet, and the price is reasonable. I was here during soft opening and everything was 30% off. Unfortunately I couldn't find what I wanted to eat, but I tried some of the cakes anyway. I'm definitely going back and try other cakes.

Derma-E Purifying Charcoal Mask and scrub

I just received purifying charcoal mask and scrubs. After using them, my skin feels so much smoother. Their charcoal mask dries quickly and you only need to wear them like 5 minutes. If you wanna detox your skin, try Derma-E Purifying detox scrub and charcoal mask.


Purifying 2-in-1 Charcoal Mask - deeply detoxifies skin of harmful micropollutants in two ways:
- Natural clays infused with kimarine wakame, bladerwrack and activated charcoal lift out dirt, oil and bacteria to decongest pores as the mask dries.
- Apricot seed powder exfoliates away dead skin cells and captured debris upon removal. Kaolin and Bentonite clays absorb excess oils and impurities, relieving skin congestion.

Purifying Daily Detox Scrub - This detox scrub lifts away micropollutants and impurities while promoting oxygenation for a fresh, healthy radiance.

Ideal for oily, active or urban skin types. 100% vegan, cruelty-free, paraben-free, sulfate-free, mineral oil-free, lanolin-free, gluten free, GMO-free.
