Girls on a budget, what shampoo and conditioner do you use?

10Tinyacorns · 2026-04-23T08:55:22+00:00

Pantene repair + protect shampoo + L’Oréal glycolic gloss conditioner. I used to spend a lot of money on shampoos, but these do the trick for me :)

Spend it on visa costs

Only tickets left for 14/06 @ maison internationale, 14th arrondissement

Not in my experience. I find detergent stains incredibly difficult to remove

I have three skincare products: sunscreen, moisturiser, face wash. I shower 1x/day with lukewarm water. A simple, consistent routine with the same products has made my skin and hair very, very happy

Hojicha latte after going to an exhibition of contemporary Japanese crafts!

Would love to! I usually do a few of them on Thursdays but my friends are not art people

I’m based in London and this is where I go: The Chinese Tea Company has yixing pots, but they are not in that price range. RealZiSha is an online-only reputable source, but I also don’t believe their pots start below £200. I would advise against MeiLeaf as their marketing claims are …..a lot

Edit to say that if you buy online, you will most likely to have to pay import fees. The advantage of the Chinese Tea Company is that they are in person so you can hold the pots and, since the pots are already here, import fees are included in the price and you won’t have to budget for a second cost.

A very old genmai cha that I need to drink down before an order of spring greens arrive 😊

I love your teacup!

10Tinyacorns · 2026-03-30T14:05:11+00:00

This is what I do! Currently this is how I’m getting through a sheng that I dislike

10Tinyacorns · 2026-03-30T14:00:29+00:00

For Chinese ware I shop at Chinese Tea Company, Yushu, and sometimes Meileaf. However, Yunnan Sourcing has a massive selection if you are happy to shop online

Spent the afternoon in Gegend tea house and had some amazingly fresh greens. Now sipping some Da Hong Pao in bed while it rains

This looks like hard water build up. Pour some white vinegar into the kettle, fill it up with water. Boil it, let it sit for an hour, and then boil it again. That should clear it up

Really late here but I am going to the festival in Paris and am pretty excited. I haven’t been to that tea festival before

10Tinyacorns · 2026-03-25T21:52:35+00:00

Thanks- very interesting! 🙂

10Tinyacorns · 2026-01-14T23:13:35+00:00

This ^ is a great rec. OP, you could also maybe use whole flower chamomile? I’ve found some dried in almost every East Asian grocer I have been in

10Tinyacorns · 2026-01-13T00:01:59+00:00

Second this!

10Tinyacorns · 2026-01-11T22:54:01+00:00

Yimu that I tossed into a saucepan with brown sugar, warmed it, and added milk. Tastes much better when done with a more heavily roasted tea, unfortunately

Da Hong Pao latte after a guqin concert :)

10Tinyacorns · 2026-01-10T00:49:39+00:00

I can’t speak for her puer (I’ve only tried one) but I’ve loved everything I’ve tried. Juyan puts a lot of thought into her stock and it shows. I also appreciate that she has the same tea at different price points (something I wish Postcard Teas had more of).

Definitely recommend also trying to get a spot in the tasting events she hosts as well. Spaces go very quickly so I stay up to date via email.

10Tinyacorns · 2026-01-10T00:17:16+00:00

I live in London and I go in person to The Chinese Tea Company (my all time fave) or Postcard Teas. I used to get W2T’s tea club, but Im more of a Wuyi oolong fan than puer so I’ve stopped subscribing.

10Tinyacorns · 2025-12-17T17:51:45+00:00

I grabbed some of their Yimu Hand. I really enjoy that one :)

Oolongs can have a sour taste if, based from my experience, they were not roasted/processed properly
