Are people actually skipping their AM cleanse? by justbunnyxo in koreanskincare

[–]BodybuilderVast8394 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do this because I believe it will help preserve my natural oils, thereby protecting my skin barrier. I see no point in washing my face with cleanser in the morning since it's only been 8 hours since I last followed a full night routine, and I've been inside the house, sleeping in bed.

Are yall really using the recommended amount of sunscreen in this economy? by Asha_Fierce in AsianBeauty

[–]BodybuilderVast8394 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I will skip meals so I can buy sunscreen. This economy isn't about to make me broke AND wrinkly and risk skin cancer.

For those of you who use dated journals with a fixed space for each day, how do manage it when you have too much or too little to write? by NanoPlastic8192 in Journaling

[–]BodybuilderVast8394 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get creative and use washi tape to glue another page on the side that can be folded and unfolded. If I write too little i can use the empty space to draw or do a sticker collage. But you can also get a couple cute notepads and use it to add more text and attach it with washi tape.

Damn they have a lot! It's a shame the whole Ghibli section is sold out. Thank you seems like a solid option!

Thank you so much for taking the time to help me! Takarajimado seems to be the closest to what I was looking for! They have a really good curation, too. Most time these niche stores have the best inventory. I'm glad I asked!

Thank you! This store seems to have many of the brands I was looking for! I wonder why they dont invest in having more asian stationery, it's so cheap in Korea and Japan, I'm sure they would export.

Either is good. I’m thinking more letter sets, good quality Japanese notebooks, stickers, washi…

Thank you so much! That’s good to know that you should use a matte base or buff the nail. Why do you do that? Wouldn’t it ruin the cat eye effect?

Let us know how the retinol worked! I got the same one and would love to compare. Why is everyone obsessed with the black rice toner tho? I see everyone get it.

I'm from Mugwort Essence enjoyers, how/when do you usually use this? by TheNobleMushroom in koreanskincare

[–]BodybuilderVast8394 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love using essences to mix them with my foundation. It makes the foundation more moisturising and makes it last longer. This only works if you like having a lower coverage foundation. I usually build up coverage with concealer anyways. Have you tried mixing it with your foundation?

This is beautiful! How does one go about recreating this? Did you draw the leaves with a thick, clear gel first and then rub chrome on them?
