Coffret D'Or Skin Synchro Rouge

Last spring, Coffret D'Or released a new line of lipsticks called Skin Synchro Rouge. In addition to a lineup of colors, there were also two toppers, PT-01, a platinum color-changer that will cool the colors down, and a GD-01, a gold color-changer that will warm the colors up. I thought the toppers were total BS and skipped both, and went straight for the colors that caught my eyes: OR-119, RD-228, WN-76, and EX-01.

DHC Lip Care Tint

Last summer, I placed a small order of Japan-only DHC items, a Water-Friendly Cleansing Oil, a Cleansing Balm, and this Lip Care Tint in Clear.

Along with RMK Powder Eyebrow N 01, I also picked up this RMK x Taro Horiuchi FFFuture Cheek Stick in TH-02 Future Red.

Herbal Essence Touchable Moisture Shampoo

Hubby and I finished the Dove Botanical Selection Damage Protection Shampoo in a flash. Despite coming in a 600mL pump bottle, there was only 400mL of it after all. Next up was this 800mL refill bag of Herbal Essence Touchable Moisture Shampoo, which I poured into the emptied Dove shampoo bottle. I only poured in about 450-500mL though, the rest I passed on to my sister along with the 340g refill bag of the matching Touchable Moisture Conditioner because I'd barely used up 1/4 of the Dove one. 

Andalou Naturals 1000 Roses Cleansing Foam

I'm three weeks into nightly use of this 163mL/5.5fl. oz. pump bottle of Andalou Naturals 1000 Roses Cleansing Foam so here's a review for it.

Bioderma Atoderm Ultra-Nourishing Cream

Hubby and I finished up the jar of Caudalie Vine Body Butter in a snap and promptly moved on to this 500mL/16.7fl. oz. pump bottle of Bioderma Atoderm Ultra-Nourishing Cream.

Egyptian Magic All Purpose Skin Cream

Every couple of months or so, me, hubby, and our little guy tag along with my parents to Costco to pick up some croissants (doesn't hold a candle to the flaky French version but does make great sandwiches, and freeze well too!), some fruits (just apples and pears, really), granola bars for hubby, etc. Every time we go it's a real treat for our little guy. Not only he gets a ride in a gigantic shopping cart, he also gets to try random snacks from the many tester carts xD

Once in a blue moon, this baby-mama gets a treat too, like this gem of a find: Egyptian Magic All Purpose Skin Cream Costco Trio that includes a large 118.3mL/4oz. jar, a smaller 30mL/1oz., and a mini 7.4mL/0.25oz. size jar.

Hera Sun Mate Stick SPF50+ PA++++

The next contender for a sun stick that I can use for facial touch-ups is this 18g Hera Sun Mate Stick SPF50+ PA++++.

Note this is the 2018 version that's been discontinued. There's a newer 2019 version, a 20g stick in a wider tube with rounder top. I bought this 2019 version too, a good spoiler for the 2018 version reviewed below: we have a winner, folks! Now let's just hope they didn't mess with the formula too much, because this 2018 version is really good ^.^

RMK Powder Eyebrow N

After another four years of using Addiction Pressed Duo Eyebrow and still only made a tiny dent the size of the brow-brush tip, I got bored and branched out yet again with this RMK Powder Eyebrow N 01 ^.^" 

I picked it up along with a few other RMK items in the winter of 2018, after learning Selfridges UK was clearing out RMK inventory (the brand is now available through LookFantastic instead). Anyway, I've been using this for months now so I guess it's time for a post.

Rohto Lip The Color SPF26 PA+++ Part II

Despite the silly name, I was thrilled when Julia gifted me another Rohto Lip The Color SPF26 PA+++ in Foggy Rose (thank you again, Julia!), and Pink Coral was from an Amazon JP order. Last fall, they also released two LE colors Shine-on Berry and Mermaid Blue, both of which Julia also generously picked up for me (thank you thank you!). Will review these later.
