The HaruHaru essence looks so good! I love their black rice toner and sunscreen, so I have a feeling I'll like this too. I agree it's hard to remember to shake things esp if you're in a hurry. I literally write "Shake well" with sharpie on some of my skincare so I don't forget lol!
I agree with you about clothes, my newer shirts are falling apart faster. And everytime I have a new shirt fall apart, I'm always like "I should just invest in my clothes, get that good quality, even if it costs more" but then it seems like buying a good quality plain white tshirt costs 96 dollars, bring back balance 😭😭 I am seriously eyeballing the anua rice serum, my skin barrier is all over the place with acne treatments and I feel like a good heavy duty skin barrier serum would be a great thing to have, im adding it to my cart
EXACTLY. And I know people say the $200 clothes are made to last forever, but that’s not taking into account how long it will take me to spill hot sauce on it 😢 There’s got to be a middle ground!!
Fast fashion has ruined clothing quality. You should get into sewing like you said. Do it for fun, pretend it’s skincare haha. Buy from the thrift store and experiment. Love your channel Alice ❤
Local thrift stores are the absolute best! And they usually benefit the local community. My daughter is super petite and buys all her clothes from the thrift store, then cuts and resews them as needed. If it doesn't work out it wasn't a big investment anyway lol!
@@connie6410 I used to be super petite in my teen years and early adulthood and I thrifted kids clothes and XS and lended some quality time with me mum's sewing machine.
So happy that I'm Fig finally came out with the second part for my evening double cleanse...a foaming cleanser to go with their beautiful balm and magnificent cleansing oil..The 3 will be such fun mixing around with...Thank you!!!
Note to self: stick a Post-It note on the Haruharu Wonder essence that states "SHAKE THIS LIKE A POLAROID PICTURE Sugah. At least until I learn to remember. Hey. some mornings, ok, ALL mornings, I'm slow. Can't wait to try this! All the Haruharu products in my collection are total gems.
Hi Alice! Oh, life is so busy right now - but I just wanted to let you know that I am watching (you seriously make my day with any content you put out)! This is early - but I am getting so excited for Fall and all the good stuff that comes with it (my favorite season - next to Spring! 🌸💮🌹💮🌸). Have a lovely weekend!
Thank you for the reminder to evaluate what I already have before buying more! I got a set of Mary&May minis, thinking I would love the blackberry idebenone serum- I didn't, but the cream and toner are amazing! So glad I didn't buy the full sized serum, the cream is on my list to buy when I see a deal.
would love a video on your favorite products to use with nuface :) (and possibly how you can figure out if a product can be used with cicrocurrent or not)
Yeah 😂😂 I'm a late GenX (aaaalmost a Millennial) but I remember when I had tops like this that was like 6 months to 2 years old before they got "small symptoms of aging" like this.. And they were always the very loved and frequently used (and therefore also frequently washed!). It's such a shame since it's a really lovely top and it looks so good on Alice 🙂👌🩷 Girl really knows her style and colors. On the other hand, she's pretty enough to wear anything she wants and look amazing. I do think she's got fantastic taste though.
Yes, derms do like UPF hats and clothing. Prequel also has a pair of UPF driving gloves. I was watching the ZIIP founder use her (expensive) gel with her device and she said she uses a lot of it, so that Anua seems like a nice priced item for folks who want to do that.
Hi Alice!! I just watched your top fave hydrating products from two years ago. Could you please do an updated version? 🤗 I have normal to dry skin, 35 yrs old, and just started using Naturium Retinaldehyde Serum 0.05% and am noticing a significant sensation of dryness! Definitely picking up the Byoma hydrating mist that you speak highly of to apply during the day. 💜
yet another skincare video for my 6 hour homework/study sesh background playlist, also I'd love it if you could review the probio-cica sun ampoule from skin1004! I love the whole probio-cica line already for my night routine and I wanna get the sunscreen but I'm not sure how well it'll work for my oily skin in the morning
I need to finish my yesstyle order glad to hear some new ideas. Hats ! 🎩 I've been in hats since I was a kid. Boating sailing the horses and loads and loads of more sailboat racing. But in some cultures we have forgotten about the hat. I love them
I really wanted to try that Ilia product but it's really expensive here. But the haruharu essence looks very nice. I'm currently using the Manyo panthetoin essence. But the haruharu looks even more milky, I'm definitely going to grab it. I just bought their Phyto & 5 peptide concentrate cream. I love it!
Love your videos Alice! I rarely comment on videos, but I was wondering if you could/have any plans on trying out Axis-Y's new spray Toner and Cream? They both have Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate and I know that's your favorite Vit C derivative. Anyways, keep up the amazing videos 💜
I ❤ the scent of I’m From Fig Cleansing Balm. It makes me feel happy, so I will probably buy the new products. Whenever I buy a foaming gel cleanser I put it in a previously emptied self foaming cleanser bottle (the kind that immediately pumps out lovely foam) and add water, somewhere between 1 part cleanser to 3 parts water and 1 part cleanser to 5 parts water. I love the soft lux foam this creates and I have diluted the product, so it is kinder to my mature dry/dehydrated skin. Also, 150 ml can last me for months.
This was fun I think probably the milky toner is the only thing that is a great interest to me. Although the rice serum might be something I would check into once my stash gets a little lower. Alice, I know you’ve done some demos before, but I would really love to see you demo the mediccube booster pro. There are very few good demos (none?) using alternative products to the Medicube ones, on TH-cam and they don’t show what products to use under which mode and how to maximize the tool. I feel like I’m not using it to its full advantage.
Thank you for this request! I do think this is a good idea for a video (ironically because I don’t love medicubes skincare nearly as much as their devices LOL!!)
Every time I see a creamy essence I usually don't have any interest because I LOVE LOVE LOVE my Dr Ceuracle Vegan Kombucha Tea Essence but I really want that Haruharu Essence. I can wait till Black Friday. Hopefully it'll be on sale lol
I bought that Haru Haru essence in my last haul as Haru Haru is one of my favourite brands, I like so many of their stuff. Also, I saw on a Japanese youtube channel that Anua is releasing a while rice line which I am definitely going to get, although Anua from yesstyle does not ship to UK so will have to wait til it comes to a UK site. They used to but stopped for some reason. Numbuzin is also adding a cleanser and a cream to their number 5 line. I was going to get that Im from fig cleanser but it went out of stock and I didn't want to wait, so will probably get it next time as I have not used Im from in a long time
I just got that HaruHaru essence in a YesStyle order! I’m SO excited to use it for the first time that I’ve been putting it off so I can keep looking forward to it 😅 also I have so many other toners & essences to use up…
I have started to buy smaller units or products from Amazon if I want to test something. I can make a decision on a few uses. I can make a decision rather quickly. I don’t have to wait weeks or months for my K-beauty products.
The haru haru essence sounds amazing for fall. I have trouble choosing between the new anua rice serum or the flaskin soyprotein serum. The flaskin one also contains bifida ferment, I think you might also like that one. I have been curious about the whole Flaskin line, as they are the sister brand to numbuzin. Would love to see a review from you
The haru haru essence seems really nice! I think I’ll try it after I finish the mary and may essence. Maybe I missed this in the video but so you think the anua and experiment have similar hydrating levels? Do you also maybe have a moisturiser rec for really dry skin for dry weather? Still haven’t found the one!
Oh that’s awesome!! Did it take a long time? I adore the idea of making clothes from scratch; but I admit I’m worried it would take a loooong time haha
@AliceintheRabbitHole it took me a long time because I had to rewind the TH-cam tutorials a lot. I'm still a newbie with sewing so there was a bunch of times I sewed and then had to remove my stitching because I sewed the wrong sides together or in the wrong place. With more sewing practice, I can be faster.
when you experiance a very oily sculp and are dry on the rest of your body maybe you sculp is producing so much oil because its dry too. Try hydrating toners on your sculp. maybe it helps with oil production.
Hey Alice, I am always confused where to use such products as HAruharu wonder milky essence, I think if I apply them before serums, serums wont penetrate through all those ceramides, what do you think? Would it make more sense to use it after the serums? (Serums I use are either Ordinary MAtrixl or Geek and Gorgeous Power peptides kind of consistencies):) I would appreciate your opinion and to include more when you review products about where the products would stand in the routine:)
Honestly cleanser is the one category where ill completely ignore my “skin type” for a fun experience 😂 i will gladly dry out my skin just to use a fun product 😅 (and try to fix it later with serums, i am my own worst enemy)
Thanks Alice! Do you have any updates for on K beauty eyelash serums? Your eyelashes look great. I would love to ditch my western eyelash serum and save some $
^ Does the Haruharu WONDER - Black Rice Probiotics Barrier Essence soak in relatively fast and work well under makeup and spf. I have dry skin from tret. I want something that doesn't have to many actives in it cause I use vitamin c l-ascorbic in the morning( so dont need anything I can't use with my vitamin c)
I think two companies having the exact same formula seems highly improbable especially factoring in sourcing variations that can create quality differences. That said, with respect to the "exact same formula would be a counterfeit" I'm not sure that is always the case. L'Oréal sued Drunk Elephant based on a patent violations if I recall correctly. Patents are costly and while I won't go exactly into the patent-worth analysis, they require a novel scientific breakthrough and filing within a proper timeframe (unlike copyrights where some protections begin to apply without any official filing). I doubt most companies can/are filing patents on their skincare products and even then the patent won't cover the entire formula most likely, just some element of it. If anything I think the exact details of a formula are more likely protected under trade secret and those protections are damaged with public disclosures like those on an ingredients list. I believe that's why brands are still able to list fragrances as a single component of the ingredients list, so other brands can't copy scent based on the deck. All this said, I still agree with the point that discussion of dupes shouldn't assume an identical deck.
Another person with very dry skin but oily scalp! Our bodies do produce oil, but just in that one spot! Nowhere else! Oh and I think bucket hats are "in" because of k-fashion. I see kids in my neighborhood wear them often.
Hello Alice. I want to try some anua and torriden products, been on my wishlist for ages, however neither brand are currently available on Yesstyle or Stylvana? I'm wondering if it's due to the new %/ppm regulations and they're updating packaging. Do you have any insider knowledge or able to investigate with your contacts? ❤
I really want to get the Haru Haru barrier essence and it seems perfect to pair it up with their peptide cream. However I’m really dumbfounded for only 30g.. and I’m wondering wheter you prefer Haru Haru peptide cream or Mary & May (we have the same skintype). I’ve also been thinking about intercoperating skin1004 probio ampoule but it seems a bit much if I get the Haru Haru barrier essence already. What do you think?
The idebenone cream is a little different. It has a nourishing feel without being “heavy” per se. Kind of how I feel about milky toners actually. The Haruharu peptide is more like a somewhat heavier cream (think biossance omega) And no I don’t think you need both, see which has a better value per oz tho bc I do think Haruharu might win!!
@@AliceintheRabbitHole thank you so much!!! This really helps a lot and I really value your opinion, thank you 🥹🤗🤗 I think I’ll go with both Haru Haru products then 👀🙏
Hi Alice. Can I check if the haru haru black rice milky toner is comparable to the thank you farmer rice ferment toner? I am looking for a more moisturizing kind so which is moisturizing, Haru har or Anua, or going back to Thank you farmer milky toner?
I would actually say Haruharu wins. No need to necessarily rush out and buy it (finish what you have imo) but yep, Haruharu wonder really came through with a “best in category” here!
I can't seem to find anything online if Experiment is cruelty free. Therefore I am not willing to buy from them. I have to assume that the are not cruelty free if the don't list it publicly for consumers.
They’re a very small brand, so my guess would be they haven’t paid for the cruelty free certification (those are expensive!) I’d say to send them a message or email for a better explanation
I was so excited to try the fig oil cleanser and foam cleanser but omg the smell is so off putting to me. Both cleanse great but legit smell like my grandmas medicine cabinet
I'm still bothered by the Birkins. It still feels ridiculous and gross - they're an outrageous amount of money and the other person they gave one to is a paragon of unethical behavior. But yes, I really want to bring back hats! They make really fun and interesting fashion statements while being practical. What's not to love?
I feel that if we keep along this current wealth divide trajectory, luxury as a whole could be seen quite negatively. Can’t have gaping wealth inequality (but…we do. 😥) Hats are so much better -and easier!!- than sunscreen in the hair
Hi Alice, in terms of skin barrier repairing active ingredients, I think I'm only going to buy an essence or a serum, if lately what I've bought in terms of texture are very similar, for example that essence from Haru Haru Wonder is very similar in texture to the Probio-Cica ampoule from Skin 1004 that I received a few days ago and I thought it was a more viscous serum, do you understand that I don't see the point of buying two such similar products with the same benefits? Unless I buy a serum with active ingredients like vitamin C, retinol, etc. Apart from that, it made me laugh a lot when you announced that Ulta was going to have discounts again, because the retailers there are always on sale, I would love it to be like that in Chile. A hug Alice and I hope you are very well and happy 😘
Oh absolutely. I think it’s SO beneficial to analyze where a product fits into our routine and what it does for us. Otherwise it’s easy to fall into “new product hype”! Just because a product is new (or viral) does not mean we necessarily need to rush out and buy it. Rather, it may be something to consider as an option for replacing a product in our routine down the road! 😊
@@AliceintheRabbitHole I agree, I made the mistake of buying it because it was on sale and it didn't meet my expectations, the Skin&Lab serum is superior 🌷
The HaruHaru essence looks so good! I love their black rice toner and sunscreen, so I have a feeling I'll like this too. I agree it's hard to remember to shake things esp if you're in a hurry. I literally write "Shake well" with sharpie on some of my skincare so I don't forget lol!
You know what, that’s such a simple (and SMART) solution!!

Thank you!! I was mid replying to you and realized I had to drop everything for a cricket run
But yes thank you!!

I really want to get the Haru Haru barrier essence and it seems perfect to pair it up with their peptide cream. However I’m really dumbfounded for only 30g.. and I’m wondering wheter you prefer Haru Haru peptide cream or Mary & May (we have the same skintype). I’ve also been thinking about intercoperating skin1004 probio ampoule but it seems a bit much if I get the Haru Haru barrier essence already. What do you think?
The idebenone cream is a little different. It has a nourishing feel without being “heavy” per se. Kind of how I feel about milky toners actually. The Haruharu peptide is more like a somewhat heavier cream (think biossance omega)
And no I don’t think you need both, see which has a better value per oz tho bc I do think Haruharu might win!!
@@AliceintheRabbitHole thank you so much!!! This really helps a lot and I really value your opinion, thank you 🥹🤗🤗 I think I’ll go with both Haru Haru products then 👀🙏
Do you think the Haru Haru essence can replace moisturizer if you’re oily and using sunscreen on top?
Definitely!
@@AliceintheRabbitHole i just purchased!! Can’t wait! Along with a replacement of the toner and 2GF serum. They def have some goodies!
Hi Alice. Can I check if the haru haru black rice milky toner is comparable to the thank you farmer rice ferment toner? I am looking for a more moisturizing kind so which is moisturizing, Haru har or Anua, or going back to
Thank you farmer milky toner?
I would actually say Haruharu wins. No need to necessarily rush out and buy it (finish what you have imo) but yep, Haruharu wonder really came through with a “best in category” here!
@@AliceintheRabbitHole Thanks Alice. 🤗
You’re like if Rapunzel had a TH-cam channel
I can't seem to find anything online if Experiment is cruelty free. Therefore I am not willing to buy from them. I have to assume that the are not cruelty free if the don't list it publicly for consumers.
They’re a very small brand, so my guess would be they haven’t paid for the cruelty free certification (those are expensive!)
I’d say to send them a message or email for a better explanation
I was so excited to try the fig oil cleanser and foam cleanser but omg the smell is so off putting to me. Both cleanse great but legit smell like my grandmas medicine cabinet
Haha yep fragrance is SUPER personal. I’d say musk can be a pretty polarizing scent too
@@AliceintheRabbitHole so true!
Somebody said Ilia?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

I'm still bothered by the Birkins. It still feels ridiculous and gross - they're an outrageous amount of money and the other person they gave one to is a paragon of unethical behavior.
But yes, I really want to bring back hats! They make really fun and interesting fashion statements while being practical. What's not to love?
I feel that if we keep along this current wealth divide trajectory, luxury as a whole could be seen quite negatively. Can’t have gaping wealth inequality (but…we do. 😥)
Hats are so much better -and easier!!- than sunscreen in the hair
Hi Alice, in terms of skin barrier repairing active ingredients, I think I'm only going to buy an essence or a serum, if lately what I've bought in terms of texture are very similar, for example that essence from Haru Haru Wonder is very similar in texture to the Probio-Cica ampoule from Skin 1004 that I received a few days ago and I thought it was a more viscous serum, do you understand that I don't see the point of buying two such similar products with the same benefits? Unless I buy a serum with active ingredients like vitamin C, retinol, etc. Apart from that, it made me laugh a lot when you announced that Ulta was going to have discounts again, because the retailers there are always on sale, I would love it to be like that in Chile. A hug Alice and I hope you are very well and happy 😘
Oh absolutely. I think it’s SO beneficial to analyze where a product fits into our routine and what it does for us. Otherwise it’s easy to fall into “new product hype”! Just because a product is new (or viral) does not mean we necessarily need to rush out and buy it. Rather, it may be something to consider as an option for replacing a product in our routine down the road! 😊
@@AliceintheRabbitHole I agree, I made the mistake of buying it because it was on sale and it didn't meet my expectations, the Skin&Lab serum is superior 🌷
The fact that they even though to give a white creator a Birkin and a black creator a cheaper Chanel bag to begin with says it all.
MMM!!
It’s like they figured it out but…also yikes that they had to?
