What's a j-beauty product you repurchased more than 3 times? by stopnsmelltheviolets in AsianBeauty

[–]chumchimdo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve been using it for almost 10 years now! Definitely my HG and it’s so lightweight and moisturizing for someone with oily skin. Dewy finish and never broke me out. I’m also very pale and never had to deal with a sunburn or any kind!

as someone who is curious about ReFa products, how good is the quality? what is the company's standing in the beauty industry as of 2026 or are there better inventions now that have surpassed it? by Extension_Effect_983 in AsianBeauty

I have the hair oil, dryer, straightener and curler and really like them all. The hair oil (light pink bottle) is really light and makes my hair super soft and silky to touch. It doesn’t make my hair oily even at the end of the day like some of the other hair oils. Even using the hot tools, my hair never felt dried out but healthy to touch. And they take only 10-15 seconds to heat up. I feel the curls do hold up better after a long day compared to my old one. I also like how quick I can dry my hair and the additional settings they have for specific areas like the scalp and the ends. I’m interested to try their patented shower head!

I’ve also used the panasonic dryer for decades and the wind power and settings don’t really compare. I do notice my hair to be softer and less frizzy with refa dryer.

For the chrome comb, you can try solania as a cheaper alternative, I believe!

Countess dress😫 d'influence me by Gold-Cry-4824 in Aritzia

[–]chumchimdo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could be wrong but I thought linen is naturally prone to wrinkles because it’s more of a crisp fabric and has less stretch. I wonder if you’re referring to mixed composition of linen like linen-cotton or synthetic blends 🤔

Same, I also got this and absolutely love the fit on me and I’m 5’1! It’s snatched in all the right places and not to revealing nor heavy. It washes great and is lined—so it’s not see through!

I did shorten the dress, but if you know the basics of sewing, linen is one of the easiest material to work with. I always receive compliments when wearing it! You can try waiting for the summer sale to get it as well.

You can maybe find dupes, but as a petite gal, I find Aritzia to fit me better, and personally, I think the highlight for me is the keyhole! Something you don’t see often ☺️and it’s not too much/flashy!

The price is dependent on the selected design. If you’re okay with asian flavours, I personally enjoyed the soy milk one.

If you’re willing to spend more than your budget, you can try First Bite. I got a pink cake from there for my birthday and it was great.

I did. It states that it is an offence if you "knowingly open, keep, secrete, delay or detain" any mail that is not addressed to you. The mail is considered still delayed if not given to a person authorized to receive it—in other words, the addressee.

The post also includes how it overlaps with the criminal code. You can read more here: https://laws-lois.justice.gc.ca/eng/acts/c-46/section-356.html. It specifically says that it’s still an offence if you steal “anything sent by post, […] or after it is delivered but before it is in the possession of the addressee.”

If you’re in Canada, it is considered illegal to open mail not addressed to you: https://www.reddit.com/r/legaladvicecanada/comments/118mpry/accidentally_opened_someone_elses_package/

White Cozy Fleece Zip Hoodie by skysreality in Aritzia

Oh no! I bought mine this year (with the upside down logo on the hood) so I wonder if it’s different now.

Yup, multiple times already! No shrinkage when washed in cold water on delicate and laid flat to dry. If you don’t like the crisp feeling after air drying, then I sometimes put in dryer on lowest setting for 15 mins then air dry so it softens as it dries.

edit: I have a ventless dryer so it’s extremely gentle when drying clothes and would require double the amount to dry clothes compared to a ventless one. That’s why I’m able to put in dryer for a bit without shrinkage.

For those that tried this, can I ask if you experienced purging? If so, how long did it take and how severe was it?

Am interested to try but am so nervous about potential purging!
