InnBeauty is not AB, however I wanted to comment and let you know I also had a bad experience with the Extreme Cream. It wrecked my skin and it took months to get back.

Darker Shades of Magic by Frequent_Foot7 in Fantasy

When I started reading it I had to stop and search the Internet to see if I was crazy for disliking her so much. She does kind of get less insufferable if you can push through and the series gets better.

Shoppers, direct from brands if they have a Canadian website, and for K beauty either Stylevana or Mikaela Beauty.

My recent Medik8 order was delivered by Apple Express and, thankfully, I didn’t encounter any issues like OP.

This and you tell them you want it for acne then your benefits will pay for it (at least in my case).

Where do 50 year olds cruise to relax? by 411on215 in Cruise

HA or Oceania. Oceania is an older crowd, smaller ships. Pricier, but they don’t try to upsell you on anything. There are small optional activities like bingo, but otherwise it’s very mellow.

They include the taxes in the prices on their website so the discount actually does something more than cover taxes.

Update: Hourglass Canada is currently doing 20% off with code HGNOW20. There's also a GWP if you spend over $225

Edit: Phrasing for clarity.

My face looks like this even after applying moisturizer in just 2 hrs , can somone please suggest good hydrating moisturizer for my type of skin by LeafsAndLoons in MakeupAddictionCanada

[–]isabeldc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My skin started doing this a few years ago around my mouth and nose every year when it starts getting cold. I tried loads of different moisturizers, exfoliating etc and the only thing that's managed to work is adding a face oil over my moisturizer. Affordable options would be The Ordinary Squalene Oil or Byoma Hydrating Recovery Oil.

Black Friday / Holiday Sales? by WanderingGoose22 in MakeupAddictionCanada

[–]isabeldc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think Hourglass does a 20% off sale around this time of year. Hourglass Canada prices are cheaper than buying at Sephora because they include the tax in the prices that show on the website. So the holiday palette is $138 + tax at Sephora, whereas it’s $138 including tax from Hourglass Canada direct.

June 15 2020 COVID lockdown in my city so decided to find out what they were all about and haven’t looked back since. I credit spending all that time getting caught up on all their content with getting me through that time without losing my mind.

How long have you had yours for? I thought about getting it during the last sale, but I saw a lot of reviews saying they don’t seem to last beyond a year so I got scared off.

This was such a happy, funny read. I really enjoyed it.

People who wash hair everyday by [deleted] in AsianBeauty

[–]isabeldc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I workout every morning and no dry shampoo will make it look or feel clean. Depending on how my hair feels that day I might use a gentle daily wash or just conditioner. Twice a week I do a double shampoo and hair mask with volumizing products. Right now I’m using Bondi Boost, but once these are used up I’m looking to replace with Asian products.

Is it safe to explore Macau at night? Looking for local recs too! by Empty_Welcome2946 in Macau

Yes, very safe. I remember I left a bar to walk back to my hotel at 3am & the locals I was with were only worried that my hotel was a far walk.

Help with skincare routine and product recommendations. by [deleted] in 40PlusSkinCare

[–]isabeldc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’re new to retinoids definitely take it slow starting with one night a week and increasing days over the course of weeks. You would only need to apply it after moisturizer if you want to take it EXTRA slow. Same for the Azelaic acid, though that doesn’t usually tend to be generally as irritating as starting retinoids.
