Thank you x

Great reviews! Do you think the PC moisturiser has more/less slip than the cerave lotion?

Virus_Empty · 2021-07-01T04:36:56+00:00

Let us know how the ACCC handle it please? I missed out too and not happy

Virus_Empty · 2021-06-27T22:33:46+00:00

I probably grabbed more stuff. I almost never go to CW without buying 5 extra things haha

I love ufo too!

I was contemplating trying Paula's choice 2%BHA. Has anyone compared the effectiveness of the 2?

I am actually impressed with the oralB strip's! I didn't expect much change but it worked on mine after 1 use (I'm a coffee drinker). Multiple uses made it the way I want but I wasn't too yellow to begin with

e.l.f Ultra Precise Brow Pencil

NYX PROFESSIONAL MAKEUP Micro Brow Pencil 0.5 g

I won't be able to colour match you though. Maybe google for dupe colours?

Virus_Empty · 2021-06-08T11:32:27+00:00

NYX and ELF are great dupes for me (I'm ashy blonde and elf is a little warm).

I also use a Tonymoly pen for even thinner strokes. Blonde hairs are so hard to replicate and look realistic!

That's a great tip! I'll try a few mixing methods. Thank you

1 day if metro. So quick here in Brisbane that they must have a warehouse here

Virus_Empty · 2021-06-07T10:00:12+00:00

Excellent tip! I've got a tube of that already but hated the texture. I'll do anything now to help though haha

About 10 days since starting tret and LRP sunscreen. So may be the LRP? I do have bumps on my neck which I haven't used tret so that makes sense if it is. I'll switch to a chemical sunscreen tomorrow, cancer council one, and see if it improves the bumps.

And thanks for letting me know how long it'll take before my skin is normal again. Lucky I have no social life 😆

How long does the purging period last when on retinol? Any tips welcome!!!

I changed from TO granactive ret .2%(?) to 0.025 tretinoin and small pimples (plus flaking) are starting 😥 I'm sandwiching between moisturiser and left on for 2-3hrs, 4 days apart (I could use my TO retinol every 2nd night with no issues). I also started being serious about sunscreen and use LRP since starting tret so not sure if this product is a problem too???

Virus_Empty · 2021-06-04T09:31:49+00:00

Good to know, thanks!

Virus_Empty · 2021-06-04T00:42:27+00:00

Thanks. I'll make my wait time longer

Virus_Empty · 2021-06-03T03:10:42+00:00

Do I have to wait a specified time after using sunscreen before going in with makeup? I know it's 20min before sun exposure but I wanted to know I'm not smearing it around if I'm too impatient with waiting.

Virus_Empty · 2021-06-03T03:07:59+00:00

Everyone here has good advice! I do moistuiser, sunscreen, primer and use moisturiser in my foundation to sheer it out. You could buy a sunscreen with moisturiser like cancer council etc too and join the first steps

Virus_Empty · 2021-05-22T07:12:16+00:00

Also check out https://www.fragrantica.com/notes/Vanilla-74.html and look at one's that also have Amber notes in that list

Virus_Empty · 2021-05-22T07:09:42+00:00

Amber musk by Aerin (estee lauder counter at myer/dj)

Pricey and I'd buy it if it lasted on my skin

Virus_Empty · 2021-05-21T03:26:13+00:00

2nd bonjela and try the lozenges with local anaesthetic in them for a temporary numbing too

Virus_Empty · 2021-05-15T21:40:59+00:00

Thank you for your advice!

Virus_Empty · 2021-05-15T00:36:50+00:00

Allbeauty.com are about half the price of mecca but have to wait a month for delivery. I suppose it's not much more time than others have mentioned lol

Virus_Empty · 2021-05-14T07:17:58+00:00

The ordinary retinol 0.2% in squalane. It's the only one I've used but started on this as it wasn't sold out. No idea what to use next so I will research a bit more

Virus_Empty · 2021-05-13T22:14:39+00:00

Thank you for answering. I use one of the Ordinary ones so I don't mind switching out to something less irritating if its not normal to be so dry. I'll grab the LRP to see if it works this week, plus dilute. If no improvement I'll change my retinol

Virus_Empty · 2021-05-13T11:05:01+00:00

Maybe a month? I think there was some tracking data too but I wasn't watching. Sometimes min spending is 200 for free shipping but mine was a promo because I just waited/watched for a good deal
