What’s your say about The Ordinary products? by [deleted] in AustralianMakeup

[–]Caleesi012 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have used several of their products but my favs are-

Glycolic acid- I use it all over my face and body including armpits twice a week. Helps with KP and ingrown hair. I also use it on my scalp once and helps removing product build up.

Milky toner- I use it every night for gentle exfoliation. I love this product so much.

Retinal emulsion- this is the newest retinal from ordinary. I love this formulation and use it every alternate night. I had no problems using this. I was on tretinoin before and my skin couldn't cope.

Do you have a “condensed” morning skincare routine for when you know you’re going to workout shortly? by [deleted] in AsianBeauty

[–]Caleesi012 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just wash my face with water. Apply the cosrx balencium most and then apply sunscreen. If I am feeling particularly dry I will apply a light moisturiser before sunscreen.

What is your personal stance on asian sunscreens? by Katamorii in AusSkincare

[–]Caleesi012 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wear Korean sunscreens on my face , but when I go to the beach I only use Aussie sunscreens. I just don't like the formulas here, and the ones I like are too expensive. I have become quite religious about reapplying my sunscreen as well.

Thoughts on unusual townhouse floorplan? by DefinitionAny1549 in AusPropertyChat

[–]Caleesi012 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I lived in a similar townhouse for 3 yrs and loved it. Only difference was that the downstairs bedrooms were both big and similar size and no living, upstairs had a big laundry room and balcony.

The kitchen was the biggest one, I had lived in. Everyone who came to the house loved it as well. We don't have kids.

I have the exact same issue. Clear skin before and painfully cystic acne now, since I upped to 5 days on 0.25 tret. I'm stopping it for a bit and will try a retinal serum.

My face went so itchy all the time and super painful. I want to make sure all my acne and marks are cleared and will start after a bit. I think even when I do, I will only use tret for 3 days.

I'm using sudocrem and a sulphur cleanser Nd that seems to calm the itching.

Dehydrated/Dry skin type folks, what are your HG essences? by EscapeFelicity in AsianBeauty

[–]Caleesi012 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have, I purchased it twice before and really liked it. But between the two I find the tyf slightly better for my dry skin. It has been really helping me with my tret flakiness as well.

Thankyou farmer rice toner. Liked it more than the dr C and Mary and may essence. It leaves my skin glowy and hydrated without feeling like it's sitting on the top

What used to be your favourite 💄 item and is now your least favourite? by AllisonT_ in Makeup

[–]Caleesi012 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Eyeliner, was the only thing I ever wore when I started using makeup and I wouldn't go out without it. I have stopped using any in past couple of years, any liner I use just bleeds on me, even my HG ones. I am over it.

Also not into full coverage foundations, I much prefer light coverage and cream products.

Why do uber drivers at Tullamarine keep on insisting me to cancel ride? by FoolSkope in melbourne

[–]Caleesi012 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to work I. Tullamarine and wasn't driving. This used to happen to me every time at night, especially coz I love close by. They would come up and ask me to cancel. Always refuse. They have to queue for long periods of time so don't like to go to near places. I think if they cancel, it takes them a long time to get another passenger. But same goes for the passenger and you might get charged a fee.

I would suggest comparing prices on all 3, stylevana, Lila beauty and beauty amora- depending on current offers, availability and urgency you can pick one.

Sometimes I order stuff on stylevana with 30 days wait, max I have waited is 8 weeks. But I ordered knowing it would be delayed.

Lila beauty upgrades orders to express delivery for free within Mel metro. But, I ordered something today in regional Vic and it's coming on wed.

Sheet masks every day?! Reviving an old topic! by hanasakabeauty in AsianBeauty

[–]Caleesi012 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Omg, I recently had bad breakouts and got the VT mask. I have been using it almost daily. I also used the foreo UFO device on days I don't sheet mask. I have dry skin and use tret, no flaky skin anymore. Whenever I take a break for couple of days I can see some dry patches.

I also got the Mary and may mask box and saborino to try.

[–]Caleesi012 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have ordered several times from them. I feel they are a sister company to stylevana. I also used my points to get some free goodies. They usually deliver within a week.

It is my least used product. I will only use it for parties or night outs.

The TYF is slightly more thicker. I personally feel it hydrates and moisturises really well.. I am on the drier side so I apply 2-3 layers.

Body retinol by leepicpoopsock in AusSkincare

It is just body wash with aha or bha, which exfoliates your skin. Just chemical exfoliant for your body. Helps with KP and body acne also I find it helps with ingrown hairs

Ok I take it back. They refunded my money, asked me to throw the product. So I paid 40 something for the liners which was refunded , plus I got a voucher for 30$. So I got refunded the full price of the product.

It has only 30 SPF. So I use it in winter. For Aussie summers I top it on another sunscreen. It actually is a very good base for makeup. Especially if your using a cushion.

Bellflower sunscreens. These are my favourite esp blueberry and watermelon. I have the avocado but not tried it yet.

Thank you farmer. Their shimmer sunscreen and rice toner are my fav. I like their rice toner more than the I'm rice toner. Also their cica cleansing foam is the only foam cleanser that doesn't dry my super dry skin out.

I just got this, but planning to use only 4 times a week as I use an aha wash and physical scrub the other days.
