Beauty Purchases This Week; 7/18/24

Good morning!  Hope everyone is doing well.  Let us know what you purchased this past week and if it's a "new to you" product or an old favorite.

 

Took advantage of Amazon Prime days:

 

Beauty of Joseon - I ordered back-ups of the Revive Eye Serum with Ginseng and Retinal and the Dynasty Cream.  Both have become staples for me.  Use the eye cream at night and the Dynasty Cream as my morning moisturizer.  Like them both a lot.  No irritation from the eye cream and the Dynasty cream is just heaven in a jar.  LOL

 

Neutrogena - another back-up of a staple.  The Oil-free eye makeup remover. 

 

Naturium - Ordered a back-up of the 2% BHA Liquid Exfoliant. 

 

CosRx - A new product for me the 6x Peptide Collagen Booster Serum.  It will be a little while before I try this as I'm using something else at the moment but decided to get it while on sale anyway.

 

Goodal - This is a new brand and a new product for me.  Heard about both of these products from Risa of RisaDoesMakeup (a YTuber).  This is supposedly a top selling K-Beauty Vitamin C.  Green Tangerine Vit C Serum and the Green Tangerine Eye Patches.

 

PeriPera - Have heard of this brand before but never purchased anything.  Ink Velvet Lip Liner in Rosey Nude and Lip Gloss in Chilling Rosy.

 

Numbuzin - This is a new product and new brand for me.  Although I have been hearing a lot about this brand lately from different YT influencers and Derms.  No 4 Hydrating Glow Mineral Toner.  Supposed to be great under makeup.  

 

K-Secret Seoul 1988 Essence - Another new brand/new product.  Their Snail Mucin 97% + Rice serum.  This is supposed to be less sticky feeling than the CosRx brand which would be great if thats true.

 

HaruHaru  - This is a back-up to a staple for me - Black Rice Hyaluronic Toner for Sensitive Skin.  

 

Looking forward to reading everyone's posts!

I bought another one of these tubes of lash growth serum. I'm on the last bit of the first tube I bought and my lashes are looking good after about 8 weeks+. Contains no prostaglandins and it's an Amazon's Choice product if that matters to you. Seems the VieBeauti lash serum stopped working for me and that's why I switched to this one. Subscription available for $20, otherwise it's $22.

No beauty purchases this week but I have a follow-up for @JudyL  from last week purchase of haruharu Centella Sunflower Cleansing Balm. I am very happy with this removing my makeup.

 

This week on face I am wearing sunscreen, Missha BB cream, and bareminerals loose foundation.

 

I apply the haruharu cleansing balm on dry face, massage  then wet my hand and massage more. I remove with wet washcloth. For a couple of nights I soaked a cotton pad with micellar water to see it anything remained and it was clean.

@Iwantcoffee  - YEA!  I have a few cleansing balms to get through but will put this on my Amazon wish list for a later purchase.  Thank you so much for the follow-up.

   I went to the Japantown mall and I got some great Asian beauty products Smiley HappyHeart! I found a fantastic serum foundation that somehow works perfectly on my combo skin- it lasts for almost the entire day and gives a perfect semi matte and slightly glowy look with light to medium coverage.  The lightest shade matches me perfectly and it was a great deal! I have a skin tone that's hard to match: pretty fair with warm yellow tones and a hint of olive and this was perfect! The brand is Daisy Doll Liquid Serum Foundation

I got this Colorgram Juicy Drop Tint in shade 7 Cool Peach.  The super cute packaging caught my eye and I like the pretty pink color.  It feels like a blend between a gloss and a stain and the color looks really pretty and lasts a while. It reminds me of my favorite discontinued L'oreal Siganture Matte Lip Stain.

      I finished my afternoon adventure by going to the Benihana restaurant for the first time ever Smiley Very Happy! I'd always wanted to go to this restaurant and I asked the host if I could still see the famous show if I'm just one person eating lunch and he guided me to a table with threee other people and we all enjoyed the show of the chef preparing the food right in front of us. 

 

     I loved how the chef made shapes with the fried rice on the flat cooking platform grill and a flaming volcano with the onions.  The chef caught shrimp tails in the top of his hat and even juggled the eggs.  It was so much fun and the food was delicious! The handsome chef made a heart shape with one of the onions and he presented it to me at the end of the show and he gave me extra fried rice- I think its a love connection, ladies! Smiley WinkSmiley Very Happy.  It was a lot of fun and I'll do the Benihana lunch special again sometime.

To get 2X points because it's my birthday month at Ulta,  purchased UD 24/7 Eyeliner in Goldmine color.


Intend to use as a lower lash liner to brighten that lash line.

@JudyL   I tried Doll 10 eyebrow cream with brush, but it's 'way too dark -- and I bought salt and pepper for greyed eyebrows. Just a disaster -- Groucho Marx brows! In addition, I was itching that area (after i removed all) and so it's going back. 

 

My search for the perfect brow fix continues.

@zitawins  - Oh no!  So sorry that didn't work out for you.  Hope you find something that you like soon.
