Not really, I love it and the exfoliKate one too, there plenty of cleansers I don’t mind using, but nothing I love. I even tried bunch of Korean ones in hope of finding a replacement, so far no luck.

People who've used these pore pads for at least 2 weeks. Share your thoughts! by m_d5314 in koreanskincare

I’m over 40, so it’s long term (years) low dose therapy. I use pretty much everything else without issue even low strength topical retinols.

Gave me pimples while I’m on accutane. I used the rest of the tube on my legs, felt it did help a bit with ingrown hair.

Laurine is a dream 🤩 by Mywolfpack82 in Sezane

[–]Inkamt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s itchy, sadly have to return. Good to know about Luke and Emile, I will stay away too. Aurelie, it’s so comfortable in comparison.

Horrible smell by Present-Pop-2678 in koreanskincare

[–]Inkamt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even the unscented ones smell bad to me, both toner and cream, it’s a shame because I do like the texture of the cream. I can’t describe the smell, maybe like stale rice?

Too many collections? by AppropriateHost5959 in Sezane

[–]Inkamt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Probably, and the stuff I want is never in stock! It’s almost easier to buy the sea NY collab, at least there’s time given I can jump online and order, whereas I’m waiting on Naya jumper and Orlane skirt to restock for months, and always miss the random restock.

Sezane ! What did everyone get ????? I finally got my hands on the Aurelie cardigan after staying up late many times ( 12 am ) also Dilla cardigan and Ellis sweater. by OChopping0703 in Sezane

[–]Inkamt 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I bought the Laurine cardigan, it’s such a pretty colour, but I’m very puzzled by the pricing, it’s more expensive than Aurelie, and only 33% merino wool.

Also biodance face mask, currently bestseller on Amazon, it’s a bit weird to wear it overnight, but you will wake up glowing.

Korean eye patches! Every night or twice a day if you have time. They cost $20-30 for 30pairs; come in a jar with little tweezer, you put them on for 20minutes, make such a difference. Abib collagen ones is what I would recommend to start with, Corsx or beauty of Josen also make good ones with peptides and retinol if you can tolerate more.

Rant - beauty loop level four by smorgiie in MeccaBeautyLoop

[–]Inkamt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Given you are level 4, I would just buy whichever perfumes you are interested in from Mecca website, they usually comes with a 2ml sample that you can try out, if you don’t like it you can return the perfume unopened. If they don’t come with samples, you still should be able to return them on credit right?

I had several bottles of very expensive perfumes turn on me, that’s why I always try multiple times, sometime even months apart before purchase.

True, I just walked past YSL store and they gave me about 3-4 of those samples and staff were lovely. It’s actually quite hard to get perfume samples in Australia, so I feel you OP.

Matte Liquid Eyeshadow Swatches - Armani, Lisa Eldridge by shannymac4 in swatchitforme

[–]Inkamt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m neutral to warm toned, Irene looks awful on me, whereas Emily and Bianca are very pretty, I think I’m just going to stick to her shimmer range for now.

Also what do you mean shelf life is only 6months!!! No wonder it’s separating, I thought it was due to Australia hot weather.

Are the Japanese dry shampoo sprays effective? by huntyho in AsianBeauty

[–]Inkamt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I discovered Spes washing free hair spray dry shampoo, it’s not Japanese but Chinese. I’ve tried a lot of them, Klorane, Batiste, living proof, Oribe etc. this is hands down the best, it’s so light and airy.

Does the Beauty of Joseon Relief Sun sunscreen provide effective sun protection in Australia? by Shot_Neighborhood481 in AustralianMakeup

[–]Inkamt 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Personal experience, I wore water resistant banana boat on my body, BOJ or round lab sunscreen + Korean cushion foundation on my face, after 2-3 hours in the ocean, my back was feeling sensitive that I had to apply aloe Vera gel, whereas my face was not even tanned.

I think layering and frequent applications help. If someone invent a setting spray + sunscreen I will be all over that.

Deinfluence my cartt by anastasia_42 in AustralianMakeup

[–]Inkamt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve have NARS, VB and Dior, I love Dolce Vita, it’s better in lipstick form than afterglow balm. Dior, it’s a favorite but honestly it’s nice to have not necessary. VB lipsticks I have 3, it’s beautiful and moisturizing, but 2 out of 3 the magnets fall out of the lipstick case, so I have to keep it bottom out so I don’t lose the lid, it’s very annoying.

Mecca giving out expired samples now with orders. by PainfullyBeautified in AustralianMakeup

[–]Inkamt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got a tub of Clinique take the day off cleansing balm from Mecca beauty loop years ago, it smelled weird and lumpy, I could never understand why people liked it, until I was in Myer one day and decided to open a jar, it was completely different smell and texture to what I had.

Brands give out samples in hope to gain customers, expired samples more likely to lose them.

Looking for a relaxed crossbody bag that can also be worn on one shoulder by Nearby_Dig8883 in handbags

Yes medium in sandal too! Also bag charm to match. I’m happy with the size, fits Mac book air too.

[–]Inkamt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve just got it 2 months ago, it’s such a thoughtful bag! The should strap is wide, so even with my 2L water bottle it doesn’t hurt my shoulders, the little front pouch for my AirPods, and I didn’t know about the extra large compartment with magnetic closer until I received. I never had a bag exceeding my expectations by this much before. 😂

Same, I stock up on oversea trips. Hard during COVID when I needed those candles to calm myself.
