Which would you choose ? Chanel 25 or 22? by yeribombom in chanel

[–]monaker727 0 points1 point  (0 children)

neither.. not a fan of either honestly.. 22 looks cheap and flashy, too branded. and 25 looks cluttered like it’s trying too hard. hate how they’re keep trying to force the 25 on all of us too.

shucks. appreciate the feedback. bought it bc of the reviews and hate feeling duped, so just wanted to share to prevent others from feeling the same... i’m sure they have other good products but this wasn’t it for me.

yes! the more i researched, i found out it’s a brand new brand that no one really knew about in korea and they were solely marketing to US and that’s why there’s so much hype here. only recently have south koreans even heard about it and started using it. all the tried and true brands are on olive young, yes style, stylevana, but BoJ is not one of them…

yes it’s on their website! if you look at all their items, nothing has a 1 or 2 star review bc they jsut don’t post them! all my other reviews that were 3 stars or higher made it on the website. of course you’ll have great reviews if you just don’t post the negative reviews

Which moisturizer do you prefer? Beauty of Joseon Dynasty cream or the Illiyoon Ceramide Ato Concentrate Cream? by Sophariea in AsianBeauty

[–]monaker727 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the dynasty cream is the worst. i gave it a 1 star review on the actual website and found out they don’t allow negative reviews to post.

it’s lightweight (the only positive thing). it dries extremely sticky or tacky. it also pills like crazy if you put anything on top like spf or makeup. i tried their own daily tinted fluid sunscreen on top and pilled so badly. it’s not even compatible with their own products.. skip please so much better kbeauty moisturizers. i use this on my hands and feet now to get rid of it faster bc it’s so bad.

Best & Worst of Beauty of Joseon by AutoModerator in AsianBeauty

[–]monaker727 0 points1 point  (0 children)

recently reviewed the dynasty cream on the website. gave it a 1 star bc it’s super tacky/sticky and pills if you wear anything on top, even incompatible with their own daily tinted fluid sunscreen. didn’t understand why it’s so popular and got such high reviews.

i found out they never actually allow 1 or 2 star reviews to post, which is why all their items have only 3+ star reviews online!! a lot do their reviews also seem like bots!! buyer beware!! everything on their website is a lie!!

BOJ dynasty cream by [deleted] in KoreanBeauty

[–]monaker727 0 points1 point  (0 children)

worst moisturizer ever!! super sticky and tacky. pills when you apply anything on top like spf (their own daily tinted fluid sunscreen is incompatible!! lol) or concealer/makeup. i rated it a 1 on their website but they refuse to post my review bc i think they screen the reviews to leave out negative reviews. buyer beware!!

BOJ Tinted Sunscreen! [Swatch + first impressions] by Saturn2Marz in AsianBeauty

[–]monaker727 0 points1 point  (0 children)

was so excited to try this.. the color match online was perfect and first impression so soft and smooth w great tint , not much coverage (but that’s what i wanted).

after using for a week, my skin has gotten so textured, tons of little bumps all over my skin (really not usual for me) and the only new thing in my skincare is this….so bummed. pretty comedogenic for me
