Kingdom of Knuffel

Nooo I just use poor English. I don't have all my basics. I just mean my like... makeup set. For me. Personally. yes.

Ah yeah the galactomyces. I forgot I wanted to try that. Adding that, too. Is it safe to use with the AHA? Speaking of, I tried my sample AHA whitehead power from corsx and hoo wee. It worked SO WELL. One use and my skin feels significantly nicer. I'm definitely ordering some, but I will /really/ need sunscreen if I start using it.

Are you using the mid day sunscreen? It's the only one I see on chuusi so I'm assuming you are. I heard from aforementioned friend that the blue tone is noticeable.

I want to try the MISSHA sun milk but it has perfume... :s

Oh right right right. What else do you need? I'm running out my usual concealer so I was thinking of getting tarte shape tape. I heard that's really good.

Galactomyces is safe with AHA, it's a yeast (sounds gross when I say it like that). I think the things not safe with AHA are retinols and Vitamin C. Yupyup! I recommend just 1-2 times a week and use at night. Sunscreen in the morn before you leave otherwise you'll end up with sun spots >_<

Yes, the mid day one. I haven't noticed the blue tone at all but it does make me look paler so I make sure to wear a darker foundation/concealer/powder than normal to offset that.

Ew, perfume D: I don't like missha products at all. I used their BB cream once and it hurt. Plus, there's a distinct smell to their products which I find mildly unpleasant.

This always gets buried hahaha.

I need... BB cream... some eyeshadow... probably... powder? Blush. Pretty much everything except eye/eyebrow liner, lmao.

YEAST? Hahaha. I mean, I smeared snail mucin all over my face. I can't draw the line here. Besides, if it works.. it works. I eat Worcestershire sauce on a regular basis. I cannot be upset about a little yeast.

Gtk about the blue tone. I'll try it, then. I'm kind of blue toned? My veins look blue, unless I tan. Then they're slightly green. Not sure if that's relevant.

IT HURT? Okay. I will avoid that. It has a cute bottle, but a cute bottle is not worth a rash.

I didn't realise how many eyebrow products I had until I compiled them the other day. I currently have 6 products in rotation. Powder I would say is handy. It keeps your base from moving about and transferring everywhere. I like the skinfood peach sake silky finish powder. The loose powder is annoying though as I don't like applying my powder with a puff and it's difficult to get out with my large powder brush so maybe get the compact if you're interested.

It's surprisingly effective. If SKI can bottle it up and sell it for $120 and have it be a cult fav, then I can use the cheaper cosrx alternative ovo

Well I have sensitive skin and it seems like my skin hates missha. They might be different now but I can't say I've ever enjoyed their products.

What do you all have for eyebrows? I've become rather ignorant of beauty products since I gave them up several years ago. I used to wear soo much makeup. Now I don't know all the things.

Skinfood sake powder eh... I've never heard of the brand. I'll check it out, thank you :3

Corsx is awesome. So well priced, and seems to work really well. Plus I love their frosted glass bottles. Looks hella fancy. That lotion I got is still the best lotion I've ever had, and it was only $20. I used to pay ~ $40 for stuff that didn't work as well.

I don't use all 6 at once lol but I've come to accumulate several brow products. I have the etude house my brow gel tint, which is this brush on tint that you leave on overnight and peel off. I don't use it often as it only lasts me a day due to my use of heavy moisturisers and oil cleansers. I've got a chichi brow pomade which is really good, it's comparable to the anastasia dip brow pomade but cheaper, however I don't use it very often as it requires an additional tool; a small angled brush. I have the anastasia brow wiz which is a super fine eyebrow pencil which I use to add hairs and detail to my brows. I have two chunky waxy eyebrow pencils in slightly different colours that lets me fill my brows in quickly, both by loreal I believe. I have a habit of pressing hard so I enjoy waxier pencils which take a bit more pressure to deliver product. Then the last item is a brow mascara which has fibres. They're great if you already have enough eyebrow hairs and don't require much filling, however I lost even more eyebrow hairs lately so there exists barely any hairs for the fibres to coat lol

I realised this year alone I've spent around $500 on yesstyle already ovo; I just placed another order on Friday. Some more re-purchases as I'm almost done but I picked up some new stuff. I got the Haemish All Clean Balm, I wanted to see if it can replace my banila and co oil cleanser and the Pyunkang Yul Essence Toner which seems to have great reviews for dry skin (http://www.yesstyle.com/en/pyunkang-yul ... 1060395494).

Okay, WHAT? A brush-on tint? Damn.
... noted.

It's not very difficult to get up to 500 >_> I feel you. I haven't spent that much because I can't justify it rn, but I would. Easily.
Do you like oil cleansers? I've used baby oil to clean my face before but I've never tried an actual oil cleanser. Idk, I figure the baby oil works fine enough. I'm a bit of a cheapskate, though.

I'm still confused as to what order I'm supposed to do everything.
I'm getting the hyaluronic acid and galactomyces soon.

Cleanse, toner, .... hyaluronic/glactomyces, moisturizer? Or can I do both?

The one I have is called Loreal brow artist plumber which have coloured fibres.
I've made 8 orders under $100 except for one that barely went over a hundred.

Oil cleanser work well if you wear make up on a regular basis, it gets everything off then you go in with a water based one. I can't have any residual make up on my face as I tend to get rashes. I think olive oil works just fine, I haven't tried baby oil. Well the banila co one comes as a soft solid in a jar which is easier to travel with than oils.

Hmm, I cleanse with oil, cleanse again with water based, tone, essence, moisturise and sometimes I throw mask in between essence and moisturiser. Hmm, you could use both. Hyaluronic is for moisture and so is the galactomyces but galactomyces also helps even and brightens skin tone.

If you have a serum you do it before moisturiser. I think everyone does it slightly different. If you look up 5 step or 7 step korean make up you can get an idea.

Have you had any success with BHA?
Sfs/blackheads are my main skin issue. From far away I look clear, but not up close, lol. I've been trying the OCM thing recently. I got some grits yesterday, actually. Pretty satisfying.

I just bought five things from ebay for $50. Ebay is so. Amazing. We'll have what condition the products arrive in, though.
I got Isehan Kiss Me Heroine Mascara (I hear it's amazing?), Saem Cover Perfection Tip Concealer, Innisfree Blur Powder (unfamiliar with this but looks cool), Etude House BB Cream, and The Face Shop Pastel Cushion Blusher. The container for the blush is soo cute x__x and it was only $5 USD. I might get a couple more shades if I like it.
I was also looking at the Canmake Cream Blush. There's one for cheeks and then there's this lip and cheek gel. I'm not sure what one I want :s

Have you tried any of these?

No, my skin is too dry for BHA :( and I don't have blackheads nor many pimples. Unfortunately I can't help with blackheads. OCM? Grits?

I could use a new mascara. Tell me how it goes. I've mostly given up on my eyelashes. They're sad, sparse, down pointing, short sprigs. I also have a bad habit of pulling them when I'm stressed so that's probably why they're not great lol

No, I haven't tried any of those at all. I haven't tried too much korean make up, I've been more into their skin care not to mention I've afraid their face products are too light/suitable for lighter skin tones. I'm olive toned and also dark so I'm not really in the korean target range ovo;;
