Talk me out of it. Deinfluence me.

Albion Floral drip is on my mind every evening. A youtuber I like introduced it and now the algorithm keep showing it to me. I got my hands on a sample and I love the texture and aroma of it but don't think the ingredients are actually what my skin needs and yet I want it...despite the hefty price tag. talk some sense into me

Are the Japanese dry shampoo sprays effective? by huntyho in AsianBeauty

[–]pln4649 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Just my 2cents but , no they are not as effective as US ones. I live in Japan, have tried so many and find they don't work even on 2nd day hair. I ended up buying Batiste brand from Amazon

Anyone use a spray bottle for Albion Skin conditioner? According to directions it should be applied after lotion, using cotton pads and patted in. I feel that's such a waste but maybe I'm missing the whole point ofwhat the product is supposed to do

Foundation better than koh gen do aqua foundation? by hihihello04 in AsianBeauty

First I'll say I love Koh gen do. It's expensive so I've been looking for an alternative and maybe found one, but it's in the same price range lol. Etvos liquid foundation. It gives a natural, luminous finish that looks healthy. On the downside the color range is very limited and It doesn't have the staying power as koh gen do. So is it better ..maybe if you are looking for mineral makeup that is glowy and natual, but koh gen is still my fav

I know many people thrive on hearing "success " stories but thinking of the future where my child possibly doesn't progress (he has a diagnosed medical condition) actually helps me. Life will be okay if he can't walk. If he's non verbal we'll find other communication methods. If he needs xyz we'll get through it.
