There is a lot of pollen in Japan right now, and many people may be suffering from hay fever. Also, the season has changed from winter to spring, causing skin problems. I spray this water when I feel dry and itchy. The mist is fine and pleasant. #apple #ipad #applememoapp #applepencil #todayatapple #avène #avenewater https://www.instagram.com/p/Cp-XGrrypOu/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

face spf that doesn't make my face greasy doesn't make my skin break out doesn't have a weird white tint doesn't stink doesn't have fragrance and won't make me go bankrupt

I dated a guy who was allergic to the sun and while he was a super cool guy, he also had to lather up in the summer months to prevent hives and I feel like Dabi gives similar vibes to that. Like you can look as cool as you want, but no one’s gonna wanna risk breaking out into hives and whenever it’s a bit sunny

😭 that sounds so bad :/

Quand mon truc du moment c'est de scanner toutes les crèmes et produits de beauté sur INCI mais qu'à chaque fois c'est une note moins de 10/20 voir pire...

[peonyleaf]

hate the smell of my new sunscreen also the texture's a bit too oily for my liking and it caused some breakouts in the beginning but it stopped now. it's supposed to be antiacne and also fps 60 while also being like 30 bucks cheaper than the one i was using before which was only fps 30 but for sure antiacne. I'm conflicted

[ofmermaidstories]

summer’s coming back with a vengeance so i’m going through my sunny collection, and wanted to make a little hommage. 🥹 sunscreen is so important! especially here in australia, thanks to our skin-cancer rates. all of these are chemical sunscreens for face-wear (NOT reef safe!!), and most of them are made in australia—i’m still trying to find a decent mineral/zinc sunny that doesn’t white-wash me or otherwise have some kind of tint that’s off-colour. i use the INCI decoder site just to check for greeblies—tbh most of these have like, an eyebrow raising chemical or two but. 💀 nothing’s burnt off my face yet, so if there’s longer term side-affects ig i’ll report back in ten years or so LOL. the beauty of joseon rice + probiotics SPF 50+ has the best ingredient list of all them, so that would be my universal recommendation!! 🧴🌞 i’ve been using the avène sunsitive sunscreen serum SPF 50+ daily since i bought it—it’s fun!! it doesn’t water my eyes. i just finished the cancer council face day wear serum—it was my previous fave before the avène. the ultra violette queen screen SPF 50+ has just been restocked—i have an older bottle. i liked it enough! it did sting my eyes, though, but it smelt like roses. 🥹 i’m not sure if the new formula is the same, but my bottle very noticeably has a fine sheen of shimmer in it, which is ehhh. it’s also the only sunscreen on this list that would get chunks in it. 💀 i haven’t tried out the natio rosewater moisture balance day cream SPF 50+—i literally just bought it a couple of days ago, because it was on sale at the chemist. 🥹

What's your skincare routine currently?

I actually spent the other week taking stock of how my current routine was working and deciding if I needed to change anything, so I have a lot to say on this

AM:

Wash face with water

(extra step for wintertime) Avène thermal water

Serum with antioxidants and niacinamide: just switched from facetheory Colloidal-C Anti-Redness Toner, which I got in hope of reducing redness (did nothing for me) back to facetheory’s Cera-C Pore Reducing Toner, which actually makes my skin look great. It has 5% niacinamide and a vitamin C derivative, which is what I want – I just would like extra perks (anti-redness). An alternative I’m considering is the Isntree Onion Newpair Gel cream.

(extra step if my skin is feeling very dry i.e. what I use during winter) hydrating serum: I’ve just finished Avène Hydrance Serum which I found very hydrating though too light weight (i.e. not good for winter for me) and honestly it lasted so little that I won’t buy it again. My go to instead is snail mucin: Mizon’s Snail Repair Ampoule (best formula but not so much product, what I’m currently using); or COSRX Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Essence (best bang for your buck, though my pump was really bad)

Alpha-arbutin: most recent addition to my skincare & it seems to be making a difference when it comes to discoloration (PIE). I’m using Beauty of Joseon Glow Deep Serum, mostly because this was the only product I could find here in Norway.

Caffeine for my undereye: I’m using The Inkey List Caffeine Eye Cream – while I can say it’s infinitely better than what The Ordinary offers (because why would you use a dropped for something that goes around the eyes!!), I can’t tell if I’m seeing results or not, despite using it for almost three months. Maybe?

Moisturizer: Eucerin 5% Urea Repair, my holy grail of all time. I buy this by the litre. Since I entered my mid-20s, my skin has turned dry. Combined with drier winters and the heating I have to put on to survive winter, this is the only thing that makes my skin stay intact.

Sunscreen: probably controversial, but I actually don’t wear sunscreen everyday, as the amount of light I get is ridiculous (though I do in the summer or if there is snow). Over the past year, I tried several ones and my top two choices are Beauty of Joseon Sun Relief (cannot fault a single thing and I found it to be good value for money based on how long it lasted me) and Isntree Onion Newpair Sunscreen (jury is out on whether the onion extract actually helps me, but I found the texture to be perfect for me and it actually ensures I apply a proper amount since it’s not too runny)

Dr.Jart+ Cicapair Tiger Grass Color Correcting Treatment: amazing!! This has been so far the only thing that helped with redness. I haven’t worn foundation in a year and it’s only because of this. I don’t even think it’s that expensive because I spent 30£ for a 50 ml jar which lasts me six months of daily use. Love it.

PM:

My routine is the following:

Double cleanse: I’ve been liking a lot the Beauty of Jonseon Cleansing Balm – so far the best cleansing product I’ve tried. Micellar water is a no for me, as I don’t like using cotton pads. Oils are mostly ok as an alternative, with iUnik Calendula Complete Cleansing Oil being my failsafe (but it doesn’t remove 100% of my mascara).   Next, I use a foaming cleansing gel. My go-to used to be Neutrogena Clear & Defend, but it keeps being sold out, so I’m now using  CeraVe Blemish Control Cleanser. It works fine. My main criteria here is price tbh.

facetheory Exaglow serum: the daily base, with tranexamic acid, liquorice root, and a vitamin c derivative, this in combination with whatever active follows has helped me reduce my hyperpigmentation so so much

An active (see below)

Moisturizer: Eucerin Urea repair, again.

Actives is when things get more complicated, because I rotate weekly between (combinations of) them

Differin (adapalene): game changer, I tolerate it very well and I recently increased it to three times per week  + Azelaic acid: I love it and over the years I tried so many different products (available in Europe). I find that for me 10% works just as well as 20%. Usually, a higher price tag gets you better texture (i.e. less grainy) but not better results. Isispharma Metroruboril was very smooth, but a more basic one works just fine for me – hence why I keep going back to The Ordinary’s 10% one. It’s not an area where I feel like I should be spending a lot.

Kojic acid: I’m using Dermaceutic’s Radiance, which works fine in combination with my overall routine. + Retinol: bit of a controversial combination, but because I’ve been using retinols for so long, this works fine. I’m using A313, which is v gentle. I bought it in Paris and it has a too thick texture in my opinion, so once I finished the tube I’ll go back to my fave L’Oreal Revitalift (amazing fragrance, great texture, very hydrating too)

An exfoliant: while some of my products have small percentages of lactic acid in it, so I never felt the need to have a dedicated exfoliating step up. However, I thought I could benefit from it and started using  facetheory’s Glycolacsal which has glycolic acid (8.5%), salicylic acid (1%) and lactic acid (0.5%).  I use it twice a week and it’s really good.

In addition to all of this, twice a week I do a face mask with benoxyl peroxide in the shower which helps tons to keep acne at bay BUT is infinitely better than using the cream, which has bleached all of my towels. The cream used to be a must in my routine but now that overall my acne is under control, I don’t need to use it as often.

This ended up being extremely long, but I love skincare and I feel like I learnt so much about my own skin and how to work with it and what products work in the past few years. I’m testing new things but in a calculated manner. And I don’t know. Skincare is nothing static and the whole process of figuring things out can be fun (and necessary).

[momo-de-avis]

I have been on a quest to find the ideal sunscreen for my face given that in my job I cannot reapply every 2h like dermatologists love insisting and I sweat my balls off. I have one that's the perfect matte texture but it's only 30SPF and it doesn't exist in 50SPF cause its not possible to create that matte texture with 50SPF so I've tried so far an Avène one that is good and lasts but I'm oily after a while and an SVR one that is so matte it's literally invisible but the skin never really fully absorbs it so I have to constantly reapply it, thing is it's so invisible I can just slather it across my cheeks you wouldn't know. Then the other day I wore a hat under the blazing fucking heat for the first time plus that sunscreen and I reapplied it all the time and I don't know if it was the hat or the sunscreen but now my skin is completely fucked up. I'm pretty lucky with my genes when it comes to acne but I haven't looked this shitty since I binged on chocolate when I was 16 years old, and it's all from sweat, cause sweat is my number one enemy and what causes most my acne issues and it's pissing me off cause all the skin care girlies and all the dermatologists are like 'wear a hat' and 'apply sunscreen every 2h' and 'the sun is the devil it will kill you' brother i am TRYING but look at what this shit is doing to me!!!! they need to invent a new article of clothing at this point!!!!! brother help me!!!!

[floatingbook]

Those I have been asked about pretty often, so if it serves: I’ve been using a MoonCup for 9 years and will continue to do so; I swear by Avène’s Cicalfate whenever I get dry skin; I’m using sunscreen from Laboratoires de Biarritz; I cook my soups in an old Le Creuset cast-iron pot; I’ve walked across pebble beaches, muddy fields, and climbed hills and cliffs in Birkenstock, with or without socks; my flashlight is a Kraftwerk rechargeable, foldable hand lamp; if I had to keep one kitchen utensil it would be this red knife.

Produits terminés 🧺

🌟🧺 On ne m'a rien demandé mais ... Prêts à plonger dans mes produits terminés ? Dans cette revue, je vous emmène à travers les hauts et les bas de mes aventures avec ces produits, des découvertes inattendues aux incontournables de ma routine. Préparez-vous à découvrir mes impressions honnêtes et mes sentiments sincères sur ces compagnons de beauté vidés jusqu'à la dernière goutte !. 🧺🌟

Day one moisturiser - Beauty Bay

8/10

C'était un gel-creme hydratant ultra confortable, on a une petite sensation de frais et un effet repullpé Il a une légère odeur, du au squalane j’imagine, que j'aime pas trop... Ca fait un peu crème médicale mais elle s'estompe vite. Je n'ai jamais eu de sensation de tiraillement dans la journée et il est censé convenir à tout type de peau. Je l'ai surtout utilisé en crème de nuit ces 3 derniers mois car j'ai essayé un changement dans ma routine (je vous en parlerai dans un prochain post 😉). Il a été repackager depuis, je ne sais pas si la formule est la meme (j'imagine que non 🤔) Un format bien généreux comme on aime de 120ml ! j'ai mis un temps fou à le finir (au moins 6 mois!!) mais déçue à la fin du flacon, il va un peu me manquer ! je le rachèterai surement (si je trouve pas mieux une fois que j'ai fini ses remplaçants 😉)

Hydrance boost mini - Avène

5/10

C'était un mini sérum à l'acide hyaluronique reçu dans la box blissim d'octobre 2023. Il n'a aucune odeur et a une texture un peu gélifiée et une application très confortable. Il pénètre rapidement dans la peau mais si on applique rien rapidement après on a une sensation de tiraillement un peu désagréable... 🙃 Appliqué "dans les règles", il a vraiment hydratée ma peau comme il faut ! Je l’utilisais par intermittence (2 fois par semaines max) et m’a duré un peu moins de 3 mois. Il a fini par me piquer sévèrement à la fin du flacon, je n'ai pas la peau sensible donc j'imagine que la formule a "tourné"... C'était une miniature de 10ml, en full size il coute entre 25 et 30€. Envie de le racheter ? Pas spécialement à la base... et si le petit format a commencé à me piquer après avoir utiliser 10 ml, un full size ça va être compliqué ... 😶

SkinHit Prebiotic+Postbiotic - Beauty Bay

1/10

Alors lui ... un sérum qui ne pas pas marqué du tout, mais alors DU TOUT. Je l'ai terminé mais il n'a pas été plus hydratant que ça, je n'ai pas spécialement la peau plus lisse, pas plus matte non plus, mes pores n'ont pas bougés... vraiment un sérum histoire de dire "je mets un sérum" ... il a une texture assez classique, pas d'odeur particulière.. 🤷‍♀️ je ne peux pas vous dire de fuir, il ne fais rien de mal, en tout cas sur moi c'était inexistant et j'au du me forcer le finir ...

Sébo vegetal gel creme 0 défaut - Yves rocher

6/10

J'ai mis beaucoup de temps à finir le pot de 50ml, plus d'1 an... il s'agissait de ma creme "dépannage" chez mon copain avant qu'on emménage ensemble. Ouverte en décembre 2022 (déjà???), je l'ai temriné fin janvier et espérant ne pas avoir de réaction (je culpabilisais un peu du gachi potentiel). Elle a une douce odeur et est à destination des peaux mixtes à grasses, elle avait un effet légèrement matifiant. Coté compo, je regarde check de temps en temps mes produits sur l'application SkinBliss et elle contient de l'alcool donc elle est censée asséchée la peau. Je n'ai pas observé d'asséchement particulier, je la touve même plutot confortable pour la journée ! Elle a été repackagée en 2023 aussi mais je n'ai pas vu de communication de la marque sur un changement de formule (je suppose donc que c'est la même 🤔) Je l'ai de nouveau en stock mais ce pot là attendra un peu !

Citrus brightening cream - Frudia

10/10 (juste pour l'odeur)

Très petit pot, mais vraiment très petit, une miniature trop mignonne en fait ! ... (je me suis faite avoir sur Amazon je n'ai pas regardé la contenance : 10ml 🙄) Je l'ai finit très vite forcément (2 semaines en l'aplliquant uniquement le matin et en jonglant avec la Yves Rocher..) 😂 Très agréable à appliquer, on a une sensation de frais légère, mais SURTOUT une odeur de tarte au citron, de lemon curd INCROYABLE ! Vu la taille du pot, j'ai pas assez d'utilisation pour voir des effets. En tout cas rien de négatif et c'est déjà bien !

Masque hydratant oxygénant Pure Algue - Yves Rocher

5/10

Je l'utilisais surtout avant et après le rasage de mon visage, il a une texture gel un peu laiteuse je trouve, qui laissait ma lame glissée toute seule ! Il laisse un effet de peau repulpée juste après vraiment sympa. Il faut bien retirer l'excédent après l'avoir fait posé par contre, sinon il peluche/pèle c'est vraiment pas agréable donc si vous vouliez l'essayer en masque de nuit, vous aller avoir des petites peluches partout sur la taie ! Après, ça reste un masque hydratant assez basique qui fait son taff dans l'ensemble 🤷‍♀️

Bas à paupières Proof it - NYX

10/10

Je suis triste et démunie !! ma base préférée (qui a été discontinuée en plus) est finie ! Je vous prépare une revue sur les base à paupières que j'ai pu tester 🤭 Elle est un peu collante, mais une fois poudrée, mes fards tenaient jusqu'au bout de la journée, elle était sweatproof ET waterproof, pourtant j'ai les paupières grasses mais c'est la meilleure !

101 ointment multi-balm Coconut - Lanolips 9/10

Un baume multi usage que j'utilisais uniquement sur mes lèvres, il a une texture riche assez grasse que je ne me voyais pas mettre sur mes cuticules, mains ou autres. En plus avec son petit format, je l'aurais vidé en 2 utilisations 🤣 Pour sa fonction de baume à lèvre par contre, c'est une pépite et j'aime VRAIMENT beaucoup l'odeur de noix de coco, très estivale, très cocktail sucré sous les palmier🌴🥥 J'avais les lèvres nourries pendant au moins 3/4 heures (difficile de faire plus pour moi, je finis par le retirer à un moment sans forcement m'en rendre compte 😐 Ce petit format, je l'ai terminé en 1 mois en l'utilisant tout les soirs

Lotion à l'acide glycolic 7% - The Ordinary

8/10

Un très grand format qui m'a duré 7 mois ! L'embout initial fourni avec est très pratique pour l'appliction sur le cuir chevelu mais pour le visage pas vraiment.. J'ai donc récupérer un spray d'une brume terminée et c'est tellement mieux !! C'est une des lotion les plus concentrée en acide glycolic que j'ai et j'ai vraiment vu un effet lissant sur mon grain de peau. Je l'ai aussi utilisé sur le corps et je n'ai plus de tâche sous les aisselles et mes coudes sont moins rugueux. Il n'a pas d'odeur particulière, une légère sensation de picotement quand je l'applique sur boutons à vifs mais clairement rien de méchant (je n'ai pas une peau sensible de base aussi). Je racheterai surement cette lotion ... une fois que j'aurais terminé la Pixi 😉

🌸🧼 Et voilà, c'est la fin de ma revue des produits terminés ! J'espère que cette exploration de mes expériences avec ces produits vous a été aussi divertissante qu'à moi. Restez à l'affût pour de nouvelles aventures dans le beauty universe ! 🧼🌸
