To be quite honest, I didn't checked for perfume. They were really cheap so I grabbed a couple, lol. A patch test is a good idea. Maybe there's a reason they are so cheap... critical thinking ... I lack it.,
Oooo okay. I will check this beauty diary stuff out. I bookmarked their page on yesstyle
Wine, eh D: I can see why that might smell gross, if it actually smells like wine.

Do you have experience with that one? It's listed as most popular. I am curious. I may try it.
The hyaluronic acid one you mentioned is also a most popular :o People seem to love it.
I will heckin' try these. Thanks for the recommendations o.ob There are little to no reviews on Chuusi.

I always check ingredients before I buy even if they're cheap >_< I don't want to burn my face off. I mean $1.75 isn't bad. They're even cheaper in Korea and sometimes staff give items to you for free when you go in. Etudehouse, innisfree are known for their relatively cheap masks. I heard Etude house is better at makeup than skincare and innisfree is better at skincare than makeup.
Personally, I don't like the skincare from either. I've tried innisfree masks but they sting as well :( I've tried the tonymoly snail slime one in the metallic gold/red package. It comes with so much essence and it feels nice but the snail mucin really grossed me out so I didn't re purchase.
No, I haven't tried that eye mask. I find a lot of eye masks have temporary effects although it feels really good.

My friend said the exact same thing about the eye masks. She uses them all the time but doesn't think they really do anything, just likes doing it. Lol. Primping is fun, though. I get it.
I just got my order today! I got a sample of the snail all-in-one moisturizer I wanted to try, so I am excited for that. I also got a sample of the whitehead power liquid. Idk if it's a spot treatment or not? Have to go check the main page for it :/
Was it the texture of the snail mucin that was weird? Or the smell? Or both? I have no experience with that. Sounds creepy. I don't know. Maybe that snail stuff I got will be gross D:
Interesting to know about the Etude/Innisfree discrepancy. Well, you know what I mean. I'll keep that in mind. The olive oil mist looks nice. I like the bottle. I really like the cosrx bottle. Lol.
I'll update when I have tried any of the products. I think I'll have a little spa night and try a mask later. Maybe a collagen eye patch. Not sure if I want to use it all in one night
I am kinda all over the place cos I've had too much coffee/am excited about my order. Hopefully my post doesn't feel like an insight into the mind of someone with A.D.D.
It might.

The cosrx white head power liquid? Look at reviews. The cosrx liquids aren't usually spot treatments but they can be drying like the blackhead power liquid.
The texture and smell were fairly standard for sheet masks. It was just the thought of it that grossed me out and having it near my lips >_<
A lot of people recommend the innisfree masks like the jeju clay or rice one. I can't use any of their products because they contain an ingredient to which I'm allergic (cetyl alcohol).
Why not go all out if your skin isn't feeling great. I do the whole shebang often :3
Haha your post is fine xD I'm thinking of ordering some new products from yesstyle soon. My clothes finally came ;3; so cute. I can't wait to wear them.

What did you get?
The corsx birch sap moisturizer is wonderful. It soaks in pretty quickly and doesn't feel greasy whatsoever. It smells vaguely of tea tree oil but in a very light and pleasant way. I am a huge fan.
The innisfree olive oil mist smells really nice, and so far I like it. I thought it might make my face feel sticky but it only does if I put it on /right/ after moisturizing, which I have only done once haha.
Sooooo far so good.
To be fair, before this I had been using spectro gel/baby oil as a skin care routine. I haven't used products since like, high school, lol. It feels great. I missed primping x_x.
I haven't tried any masks yet, mostly because I wear glasses and I'll have to sit and be blind for twenty minutes.

Half of the things I got are gifts but for myself, I bought:
Power 10 Formula VC Effector (repurchase) It's a VitC serum I use c:
Cosrx Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence. They ran out of galactomyces so I'll give this one a go.
Cosrx One Step Pimple Clear Pads for my brother because he's a lazy fart.
and a faux leather belt to go with my new ripped denim.
I use a lot of cosrx products because they're reliable and cheap.
Sounds like it's going well. I'm glad you're not reacting adversely to anything. That's always a pain. Spectro gel? Never heard of that. I'm not compatible with baby oil believe it or not.
Hey, masks never stopped me from wearing glasses xD

Ahh, have you tried the Mucin essence yet? I wanted to try this:
https://www.chuusi.ca/products/cosrx-ad ... 2112188998
I am intrigued by the snail stuff. People seem to like it.
Corsx seems pretty nice. I mean, I've only tried the birch sap moisturizer lol but they get good reviews. Btw the birch sap is fantastic.. I think it'll be a new staple. My skin is so soft.
I have been lucky not to react, though I have yet to try the masks. I'm generally not that sensitive to products unless they have fragrance.
I also bought that Burt's Bees rose toner. My skin has cleared up a bit since I started using it. It has alcohol but doesn't dry my skin out because there is glycerin in it as well.
Next I want to buy this:
https://www.amazon.com/Burts-Bees-Inten ... cial+Water
It's a shame... seems to be discontinued because it's not on the website, nor can I order it from places like Wal-Mart. The price on Amazon seems steep, too. I really want to try it, though... geh.
I think Spectro Gel is a Canadian product. Cetaphil is very similar.
Apparently it's spelled Spectro-Jel. e__e

No, the snail mucin essence hasn't arrived yet. I definitely haven't tried the snail cream either. It has an ingredient to which I'm allergic.
I am intrigued too. I think as long as it wasn't super thick like the Tony Moly Snail mask I tried, I'll like it c: I think all their essences make your skin soft as a baby. Depends what you want it to do. The galactomyces helped brighten my skin and even out my hyper pigmentation from my eczema.
I never thought about trying Burts bees skincare. I have some of their balm tints which I enjoy. I usually skip toner altogether. I'm way too sensitive to any alcohols.
Aww, that's a shame. Don't collect too much skincare until you finish what you have D: I try not to do that.
Ohhhhhh, I can't use cetaphil either :c mannnnnn I wonder how Korean people take care of bodily skin (not just the face). My face is all good now but my legs are like snakes.

I tried a mask finally. It's weird how.. wet.. it is.. I mean, of course it's wet... but it just looked like a cloth soaked in moisturizer. It was weird, but very nice at the same time, lol.
That's a good question about the bodily skin. I wonder, too, because... same. I am nice to my face but the rest of my body is not so pleasant lmao. I don't know if I've ever seen body lotion on those Korean sites but.. there should be some? .... to Chuusi

Yeh c: My skin soaks up all the essence though. I take the excess essence and pat it down my neck as well.
I haven't found anything at all which is really bizarre. I mean they just have regular fruity scented lotions to which I'm allergic *cries*
I bought more my beauty diary masks. They changed the packaging and formula. Now it's bigger and has soooo much essence. The mask is still small though but maybe my face is very long xD
