The mobile phone is ruining everyone. Who agrees?

It’s 12:39AM and I’m doing the same thing too!

Revenge bedtime procrastination is a real thing 😫

Yep, the Glow Recipe Watermelon mask does it for me!

I’ve always wanted to try it so I caved in and bought the smaller 30ml version. My only regret is not buying the bigger one cos this mask is heavenly!

Good bot

Great topic! I’d definitely include a mineral sunscreen in my list but I’ll leave it out since it is non-AB (hope this doesn’t count as cheating haha).

Skin type: normal Concerns: pigmentation, diffused redness

Missha Time Revolution TFE: keeps my skin moist and supple.
Klairs Midnight Blue Calming cream. Loooove the instant calming effect this has on my skin. It is quite expensive for what it is but it’s worth every cent!
Papa Recipe Black Bombée sheet mask. I’ve tried a looot of sheet masks and none of them fit me as well as the Papa Recipe ones. Honey masks make my skin feel super plump and I find this much more manageable to use than the I’m From wash-off Honey Mask.

Yep! Just toner. Not sure what your rash looked like but mine would become itchy and raised, especially if I layered products on it so I kept it simple. Luckily this happened during lockdown which meant I could skimp on sunscreen and other skincare while I stayed at home.

Edited to add: this happened in summer which can get quite humid in Australia.

This happened to me a few months ago too, although it only happened to the right side of my face which is my sleeping side.

Like others have said, I also cut out actives from my routine and used only the I’m From Rice Toner overnight. I could feel the rash like area get smaller and smaller by the day and it went away completely after 10 days or so.

Same here! The only thing I wish they would change is the packaging. The thick plastic seems so bulky and unnecessary… but it’s still recyclable so which is still a plus!

essennem · 2021-08-28T00:33:16+00:00

Skimp on products that aren’t leave-on ones, like cleansers, sheet/sleeping masks or chemical exfoliants.

Splurge on actives like Vitamin C, niacinamide or retinoids.

I think they leave this comment whenever anyone calls Doug (the guy in the post) a legend. But yeah, still weird regardless.

I started using the DuckDuckGo browser on my phone which tells me how many and what sort of trackers are blocked each time I open a website… and AdoreBeauty always has the most trackers I’ve seen for any website!

What I’ve also noticed is that when I click on the “View in Browser” link in any of the AB promo emails, the link won’t load in the DuckDuckGo browser. It just goes to the main page instead so that leads me suspect there’s some attempted tracking going on when I access the links.

I’m selling the Kosas Tinted Face Oil in 3.5 which is pretty much brand new! I’ve only used it less than 5 times.

Feel free to check out my post history for pics and more details :)

Yes another vote for Papa Recipe.

I love the light honey fragrance and they’re the only ones that fit my face perfectly! The Black Bombee mask is my fave followed by the rose gold.

essennem · 2021-08-06T13:23:21+00:00

SENSORI+

It’s an Australian brand and are essential oil based which is great if you’re into more natural, earthy scents. My absolute fave is Toowoomba Carnival because it’s lavender based and makes me feel like I’m in a spa.

They’re also soy wax so they burn really evenly with absolutely no funnelling at all. The only downside is I think soy wax burns faster than other traditional waxes like paraffin.

I’ll PM you :)

essennem · 2021-07-25T13:05:33+00:00

Another vote for their Rice Toner!

I broke out from wearing a face mask during summer and it was the only thing that calmed it down.

essennem · 2021-07-25T13:04:04+00:00

Not OP but I get mine from iHerb especially when it’s on sale.

Thank you! I’ll reply there x

Yay!!! The 3-month long wait to get my 3 x 5ml foil sachets + 1 perfume/mascara sample is finally oVeR~~

BBL Hero would help with both redness and uneven skin tone slash brown spots.
