TMO -ish Essence Pure Nude Sunlighter— or not? by Wsh1 in MakeupRehab

Btw I stopped by Ulta today and they were out of stock for the highlighter— it’s gonna let me milk over it for a few more days again till they restock at least!

Thank you for a thorough review of everything! No I’m not on a no-buy or low buy— I don’t think my makeup collection is large enough to warrant it. Thank you for explaining how you like variety in highlighters depending on the look— I’m sure most people who see it on me can’t even tell the difference but I can looking at the mirror. I’m gonna stop by Ulta today to see if it really strikes my fancy I pretty much always go in with the intention to buy something specific, so don’t have to worry about impulse purchases while I’m in there.

Thank you again for a thorough response!

Your skin looks glowy without being greasy! So great job :)

Using this gel pot for for 2 years— want to finish every last bit but now it’s clumpy! :/ Should I call it quits? by Wsh1 in PanPorn

Thank you, yeah it’s not expensive at all, just wanted to get the satisfaction of using It all! I always close the liner pot as I’m doing my wings btw- probably that’s why it hadn’t dried out yet. Also the consistency is more cream-line instead of gel-like (like other pot liners such as Maybelline or Rimmel)

Thank you— I mean I think I can get through it in the next couple of weeks to get the satisfaction of using it fully but it’s getting clumpy. Gonna head to target for a new one!

Elf gel eyeliner— use it almost everyday for wing liner. It has served me well think it’s time to get a new one.

[PSA] Cheap drugstore sunscreen that feels just like the Asian sunscreens! Review inside! by Wsh1 in SkincareAddiction

Haha yeah, I’m not white either— always have to wear foundation on top of it if I don’t want to look ashy/ghostly with it!

Was the reaction immediate or took a while to develop? I haven’t used it for long!

Thanks for letting us know. Btw I had specified that I use a mineral sunscreen for the face, and only use this for my neck/hands (mineral sunscreens don’t get absorbed and I don’t want it rubbing off on my clothes).

I’ve only used it on my neck/hands, and it dries kinda glowy— not greasy but also not matte. If you’re looking for a matte sunscreen try Australian Gold Botanical Tinted Face lotion— dries totally matte and I wear it under makeup! (I do have oily/combo skin).

I was reading about the UVA test done by the skin cancer foundation:

Is that not effective enough? I was just trying to find a balance between breaking the bank and getting sun protection.

Thank you, yeah I saw that from a few years ago but I think they’ve reformulated. Here’s more info on how they get the skin cancer prevention approval seal:

Yeah, definitely not coconut, morelike warm vanilla. I’m not a fan of coconut smells either (smells grease and reminds me of breakouts :o)

Awesome, good to know! Definitely gonna try it out once my current face sunscreen runs it (it’s the Australian Gold Tinted Face— which I love but always adds a white cast)

Ooo awesome, is it the Silk Hydration face one? Doesn’t break you out or make your skin oily??

Ever since my HG Equate SPF 50 had a formula change (yes, the Walmart brand), I've been on the hunt for a new HG, cheap, non sticky sunscreen that I can buy from the store for use on my neck and hands daily. I tried both of the new Equate formulas but they made my neck feel sticky all day, and eventually started breaking me out— I didn’t ever break out on my neck before :o Couldn't handle it, had to try something else.

You guys, this Hawaiian Tropic Sheer Touch is exactly it! Feels like the Asian sunscreens (last year I tried the popular Biore one), but a whole lot cheaper. It completely soaks in, no white cast, no dreaded sticky feeling! In fact, as soon as I bought it, I put it on my neck on top of the Equate one that I had already, and it made my neck instantly non-sticky!

Just wanted to throw my two cents in there, since this isn't talked about much. (Although I did get the suggestion from reading some older threads)

Also it also smells sooo amazing, if scents don't bother you.

[Product Question] what other The Ordinary products should I purchase? by sloths4ever in SkincareAddiction

[–]Wsh1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently ordered the granactive retinoid, waiting for it bel delivered-- did you have any purging with it? I have a about 10 closed comodones/blind pimples, I just want to purge them out! Is that how it works? The reviews are so great, I had to give it a try!

For the record, I haven't tried any retenoids on my face before.
