Seo Yeon Lee

Beauty Editor

Hello *waves*, my name is Seo-Yeon. Welcome!

I am married to my childhood sweetheart, who understands my quirks, and I am pregnant with our little pea.

I am a South Korean native who recently moved to San Francisco with my husband.

As a freelance writer, I relish working from home and making an office out of the city’s coffee shops.

My obsession with skincare can be attributed to my mom, whose sage skincare tips can be made into a lengthy novel!

I am a makeup enthusiast. I might be a skincare junkie too. OK, I AM a skincare junkie too.

If I were to describe myself, I’d say I am self-absorbed (why else would I think others would be interested in what I say?), sarcastic, impatient, annoying overachiever (when it’s something I’m passionate about), highly strung, obsessive, possessive, easily bored.

I can also be carefree, lazy, funny, crazy, charming, whacky, friendly, laid back, and zen-like. Yeah. I’m either on one end or the other end.

This space represents me. Thank you for visiting, and I hope you have an enjoyable time here!
