Woohoo I'm back to a "normal" cleansing oil that doesn't turn everything greasy--thank you, Bobbi Brown Soothing Cleansing Oil (I'm about 3/4 way through the full size 200mL/6.7fl. oz. pump bottle)! This was from the Cleanse & Care Extra Skincare Set, from which I've already posted about the Extra Illuminating Moisture Balm Bare Glow (bare glow? more like disco-ball glow) and Extra Lip Tint Bare Pink (a definite hit--already repurchased Bare Pink and a few other colors).
After the disaster that was BloomEffects Royal Tulip Cleansing Jelly (never ever again!), I moved on to this 134g/4.6oz. jar of Versed Day Dissolve Cleansing Balm with hopes that it would be better than the BloomEffects grease-fest. Honestly, after BloomEffects anything would have been better.
Here's a cleanser I'd never want to touch again: this 80mL/80g/2.7oz. jar of BloomEffects Royal Tulip Cleansing Jelly. This was a gelee-to-oil cleanser with an interesting and unique texture, an oily gelee that melted instantly upon application into an oil that was smooth and not too thick, but not thin and silicone-y either. However, the good feelings ended there :(
Went through several bottles of jars of cleansing oils and balms these past couple of months so here goes. First up: this 150mL/5fl. oz. pump bottle of Shu Uemura Ultime8∞ Sublime Beauty Cleansing Oil.
Here's a 5mL/0.16fl. oz. tube of Boots No7 Future Renew Damage Reversal Serum I got from a generous Walgreens GWP.
For our short trip to visit the in-laws this past June, I also brought with me this 18mL bottle of Paul & Joe Body Oil. It was from the Paul & Joe Makeup Collection 2021, on Day 15. And yes, this post is 3 years late but better late than never ^.^
I had a couple of 10mL/0.34fl. oz. sample tubes of Diptyque Body Balm from various Beauty Habit orders and took them with me on a short trip to visit the in-laws this past June. Each tube lasted me 2 nights of use for arms and legs, which was perfect for the length of the trip.
Summer is coming to an end, which means my kiddos have gone through a few bottles of sunscreen, with some repeats and some new. This 180g bottle of Country & Stream Honey UV Water Gel SPF32 PA+++ was among the newbies, and the boys used it up within 3 weeks!
After the Jurlique Rosewater Balancing Mist Five Roses LE, I moved on to this 100mL/3.3fl. oz. bottle of Calendula Redness Rescue Calming Mist. Jurlique has been offering this Calendula mist for years, possibly more than a decade! It's one of those long-standing product along with the original Rosewater mist and I'd been wanting to try it for a long time.
Here's another forgotten post: this 100mL/3.3fl. oz. bottle of Jurlique Rosewater Balancing Mist Five Roses Limited Edition.
After Giorgio Armani Beauty Armani Prima Oil-in-Gel Foaming Cleanser, I was equally confused with this 150mL/5fl. oz. bottle of Shiseido Waso Quick Gentle Cleanser. Turned out both cleansers had identical concepts! What are the odds of that? I had never seen such a cleanser before, and then boom, I happened to use two of them back to back from two very different brands.
