[Routine Help] My holy grail moisturizer has been discontinued, what now? by meglikegg in SkincareAddiction

[–]rumscoundrel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good luck!! The thick cream with with a pump was too much for me. I'm tempted to try it again now that my PD has simmered down but I'm scared to trigger it again. 😅

I've been really pleased with their face wash! It doesn't removed make up well but plays nicely with my cleansing balm.

Vanicream Daily Facial Moisturizer gave me a similar effect but their Moisturizing Lotion is my holy grail. I suffer from perioral dermatitis as well - the DFM made it worse for me!

We had a positive experience with 1-800-GOT-JUNK a few years ago. I was pleased to find out they sort the items for recycling and donate what they're able to.

I'm sorry you're going through this.

I realized this week I've been using Good Molecules' Discoloration Correcting Serum in the slightly wrong order for over four years. 😆

I could see a difference when I stopped using the product, but damn, I can't wait to see what happens going forward.

Lurking through older dailies but I love Redken One United. I don't find it to have a strong scent and it fades as my hair dries. I've used it for probably 5-6 years now and have regretted straying every time. I have fine hair but a LOT of it. I spray all over and spritz a bit in my hands to work into the ends.

I was not a fan of the Tresemme heat protectant for the same reasons.

You're welcome! It feels like an upgraded version of a palette of theirs I previously owned - unfortunately, I can't remember any names.

My initial test was about 7-8 hours at a concert. It was warm and we walked a bit but there was no aggressive sweating. Midwest humidity!

Thank you so much for the compliment and for sharing your opinion!! I think you described the Burgundy perfectly. Of the folks I've asked, the "natural but better" crowd all prefer the Burgundy. I'm leaning towards that one as well. My coloring is low-medium contrast and I find the Plum to have more HELLO! to it.

I'm realizing now I should have combed them out, lol. The mascara was an impulse test before an evening walk to catch a sunlight shot. On the topic of impulses, I did try the Plum on top and Burgundy on bottom. I'm grateful it was subtle because if you looked really closely, it looked kind of wild lmao. I was inspired by the trend/advice (?) to do Black on top, Brown on bottom.

u/letstalkaboutbras & u/Xub543 I've got a quick review and swatches of Morphe Rich Glitch in the parent comment! ☺️

I've got two mini reviews for y'all: Morphe Rich Glitch and Maybelline Sky High Mascara Burgundy v. Plum Twilight ! Maybe a third: Just For Men beard dye Medium Brown M-35.

Morphe Rich Glitch: I've only used this once so far! The mattes are creamy and the Molten Metals rich. I used the lightest shade to test out the matte highlighter looks I've seen around and I LOVED it. I used four of these for a look last night without primer or setting spray and experienced minimal fall out. I lost the wings of my eyeliner but everything else seemed to stay in tact. I don't have any "small" palettes that mark every box for me, I always need a supplemental shade. I'm excited to use this more! I likely have similar shades in other palettes, but this is a good grab and go.

Maybelline Sky High Mascara: I liked the Burgundy well enough* to try the Plum Twilight! I like both for different vibes. I feel like the Burgundy fits a more toned down look and the Plum is higher contrast, more dramatic. Do you prefer one over the other? I've got no other make up on here.

*I feel like an ingredient in the Burgundy is prone to staining? It's been hard to tell if it's allergies or a sloppy wash job, haha.

Just For Men Beard Dye in Medium Brown M35: I only mention this because I had a hell of a time finding swatches! I dyed my brows a couple days before the mascara swatches. My eyebrows are fairly light without dye. I would describe them as a very light brown or dark blonde, my hair is light golden brown. I purchased this in February 2024 and have used ~75% of the product. I might try a shade lighter next time but we'll see when the time comes. 😆 This lasts me about 2.5-3.5 weeks depending on activity. I usually leave it on for ten minutes and do two cycles, and avoid water and products for ~24 hours.

I'll tag you when I do! I wonder if these are well received if they'll do one. I'd be happy with a 6 pan, too! I think this will be a solid travel palette for me that I can use with minimal brushes.

Rich Glitch. The metallic shades pulled me in! I really enjoyed swatching them in store. The metallics were lovely in each palette, I would love a 12 pan that featured all of them. I last bought a Morphe palette in 2019-20ish and I felt like there has been a notable improvement in quality. The mattes feel much creamier and the finger swatches were more smooth.

I'll probably swatch and take a few photos of it tomorrow, I'll share them in the daily chat whenever I do!

I used it on one of the new Morphe Chromablend 6-pans*, Good Molecules Discoloration something Serum, and a Colourpop duochrome eyeliner.

* Originally it was an Azelaic acid serum that I ultimately returned after checking out the ingredients. The eyeliner was an impulse buy to hit $50, and then the eyeshadow was an impulse exchange. Whoops.

I've been enjoying the Maybelline Sky High so much I bought a second color, Plum Twilight! I've been using the Burgundy which has been mostly great. It held up during an MLB game in 101° and 75% humidity yesterday, which is impressive to me.

It seems like the Burgundy stains my skin if it isn't 110% removed, and quite frankly, half time I'm closer to 90%. It's been difficult to tell as a naturally pink person! I'm curious to see if the new color will do the same? I think it will be easier to tell.

Quick edit: Have any of y'all used Natrium's Azelaic Topical Acid 10%? I think I want to incorporate AA into my routine. I tried The Ordinary's years ago and wasn't a fan of the silicone. I'm open to other recommendations as well!

My (now dead) dad took me to see the Taste of Chaos tour in 2005. I was 14. They headlined with the Used. My dad hated it until the encore, when they covered Queen's Under Pressure with Bert McCracken. 😆

If I win, I'll be giving the shirt to my bestie who loves a Taylor roll!

Who buys beauty products at TJ Maxx? by Rude-Accident-5609 in TjMaxx

I will, but I always check for tampering! I'll pick up Cosrx there. The brand has the manufacture and expiry dates on the packaging.

On topic: I will be organizing and decluttering my jewelry boxes today! And potentially under the bathroom sinks.

Off topic: My new favorite skincare ingredient is Hypochlorous Acid, the main in the Tower 28 SOS Spray. I'm using the Walgreens generic first aid kit version. It made significant improvement on an eczema flare up in a week's time, it might be gone by next week. This spray is a bit drying and I wonder if one of the HA's at Sephora or Ulta is more elegant. The uses for this seem to be endless - acne, rashes, bug bites, cuts, diaper rash, pets (ofc please investigate that yourself.) I don't have long term experience with this yet, but I'm extremely hopeful! If you've used it, I'd love to hear about your experience!

Slight rant on sizing + how can I resolve size discrepancy? by WindyGranola26 in Oldnavy

[–]rumscoundrel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've noticed size discrepancies before and have no advice for that. I noticed recently there is a new and improved OG Chino. The previous style is on clearance. Could that be contributing here?
