The Elizavecca Cer-100 hair care line… the whole line… insane!! I’m 51 and this has changed my crazy frazzled hair into silky strands. I’ve used the coating treatment, the A+ muscle spray and the hair oil. Superb
Makeup updates: the mascara is definitely “tubing” imo (seems K-Beauty doesn’t use that word) and even removed exactly like the Milani, meaning: a LOT of tubes. The foundation is a good example of what I was talking about with my lighting lol 🤦♀️
Regarding "for all hair type" Western hair products, I believe they are mainly designed for thicker, straight hair, and perhaps slightly wavy hair, but definitely not for curly or coily hair. Using products not intended for curly or coily hair tends to dry it out. Additionally, it's often needed to use more products like leave-in and gel to achieve some definition. I enjoy your videos and hope Korean haircare works for you!❤
Ah that does make sense. My partner has wavy hair and can practically grab anything from the shelf, I guess because her hair is pretty in-the-middle (seems it would be convenient lol!) Whereas sooo much weighs my hair down. Very excited to try out these products!
I'm definitely hooked on the Isntree onion line. There is a visible improvement in the healing speed of my acne marks. I have hormonal acne, a pimple here and there would show up on my period and the marks usually stick around to the next period. I'm constantly stacking acne marks and hyperpigmentation. Just by using the toner and applying my DIY pads on the acne, they were going away faster. So now I got myself the cream. For a combination skin, it's a perfect moist/texture balance and I've been particularly focusing on the problematic areas. I think I might just get the ampoule next time. I'm IN LOVE. Also about StyleVANA shipping, last time on black Friday, I didn't pay attention that I had an item in my cart that was "available in 30 days". So it took literally 30 days for that item to be in stock, and from there 2 weeks for my order to be delivered. So, 6 weeks in total. This month, I made sure everything was "available within 24h", and my order arrived in ONE week. So I guess the best way is to divide your cart based on the availability of the products.
It’s an incredible line. I really believe that anyone who deals with any kind of inflammation or irritation, be it from acne or something else, will see results from it! And yup, the availability on stylevana makes a tremendous difference. I feel like it should be in the most gigantic print on the webpage!!
Combo skin girl with hormonal acne here is so thankful for your reply. I started feeling like I was in kindergarten again and I can connect the dots on my face with old marks and new pimples. The bifida ferment lysate products have been helpful too! BFL is my new BFF.
Saw the TirTir toner and immediately thought it would be a nice replacement for Laniege Cream Skin for me. (Also I admit was also highly interested when I noticed that EXO's member Baekhyun advertising it) Milky toners are what my dry skin needs now. I'll keep TirTir in my next new brand to try out!
Yes!! Especially because I hear the Laneige reformulation isn’t working out as well as the old for a lot of folks 😞 - but this is better than the old version anyway, at least imo!
I like toner pads because in my head it feels wasteful dumping all the toner on to a cotton pad to use as a sheet mask. I know realistically it probably works out to be the same. The Isntree pads may be designed to pull apart like that! I watched a video with Euni & Soo where they pulled the pads apart the Skinfood toner pads like that before using them like a sheet mask.
LOVE the TIRTIR milky toner!! I liked the Isntree yam toner initially, but the texture is so watery so I wanted to try a different Kbeauty milky toner and so glad I landed on the TIRTIR! Can’t wait to try their ampoule you recommended in this video :)
I feel like that foundation shade is exactly your color. But only by Korean beauty standards, not by western standards. Most Koreans prefer their foundation to be a little lighter than their skin color to get that brightened look.
For YesStyle, I think you hit the nail on the head when you talked about needing to find the jbeauty haircare over there. YesStyle has the best overall selection, not the best prices. It can still be a great location for someone who casually shops asian beauty to get their entire haul from one shop, or who prefers buying singular products from high end brands not carried by Style Korean/Stylevana or carried as individual products from Jolse (that has a larger focus on kits from luxury brands). I am interested in your review of Tirtir (I was interested but haven't purchased anything yet), and I totally understand what you're saying about dry skin but feel that's only a fully accurate description of non-luxury products. My understanding is that brands are much more segmented in Korea to appeal to specific demographics. Most of the products we talk about when we discuss k-beauty are at a lower price point and those brands are marketed to younger demographics. Given the humid climate and target demographic, I feel a lot of brands cater towards a client base without as many dry skin concerns. The luxury brands marketed towards an older on the other hand tend to have far more moisturizing options available (acknowledging that due to climate they may still be less rich than western alternatives). For this reason, even though I don't have the driest skin, I no longer try hardly any moisturizers or second cleansers from k-beauty other than luxury options.
That is exactly what I’ve been thinking as well! Given that the Chogongjin products are great for dry skin, and how mature skin typically (though not always) tends to be more dry, I can absolutely see how dry skin folks could prefer those lines instead. No matter their age! And yes, that really is yesstyle’s strength. They’ve even started to carry western brands, which is so very interesting to me. They’re doing well, and I think it’s because if you’re looking for a particular Asian beauty product, they WILL have it!
They have said the new skin1004 line is more geared towards aging skin and even more moisturizing. I’m still looking for more affordable options as well
Alice, I was very interested in Tirtir products, because I have dry skin, I also realized that they do not contain hyaluronic acid like all brands and I live in an extremely dry climate so I am even more interested. Regarding products for damaged hair, I have heard very good reviews of the DR.FORHAIR brand, which are called UNOVE, but they are quite expensive. I hope you are better than last week. A hug and have a nice day Alice 😘
Good catch on the lack of HA! That’s so hard to find these days; I’m grateful I can use those ingredients but I do feel bad for those who can’t Thank you for the suggestions 🥰
Some people prefer toner pads for not only convenience and quick application, but also because they're generally just easier to use! I personally don't really enjoy using masks and prefer to use the toner straight on my skin without DIY-masking or using toner pads. However, I have mobility issues and love toner pads for the days when my mobility is low. It's much easier for me to open, pull out and put on my face a pre wet toner pad, than it is for me to DIY a toner mask. I actually tried your method last night after shaving my face and while I did LOVE the results, it's not something I'll be able to do regularly or on my low-mobility days. My skin was glowing like the sun after though!
I bought the etude lash serum on a whim. After 3 weeks, I was about to give up when I noticed that my lashes had grown really long and I had lashes the entire length of my lids. I think that just by improving the health of the lashes, they don't fall off early and so have time to grow longer. Happy with the serum and will keep using it. I also got the DHC lash serum but was not impressed. Another surprising find was the numbuzin no 5 vitamin concentrate serum. I wanted to try a brightening serum.and the ingredient list looked good. My skin has become a lovely even tone in a week !! Most people use it with the no5 toner pad but I went with only the serum. I am waiting for your prequel.review. They have added a Vit C and a sunscreen. Happy weekend!
Thank you for sharing! It does make sense, and it’s almost funny how little attention we pay to lash health. It likely plays a bigger role than the mascara we choose, though that seems to get all the attention!
Your skin always looks so nice!!! I have been having such a bad skin month. Have no idea why i'm breaking out. Love your videos!!! Can't wait for your barrier video!
Thank you so much for introducing us to this new generation of sunscreen formula. I’ve been let down by so many sunscreens, including biore, Nivea, purito, innisfree, and skin1004. I knew sunscreen is essential, but all of them irritated my eyes. Every time I tried new sunscreens, I’m kinda expecting it to not work and me wasting my money. That’s until i tried haruharu sunscreen you recommended. It is the best sunscreen I’ve ever tried. It has a natural finish, hydrating, no white cast, perfect under makeup, and doesn’t irritate my eyes. I can finally wear sunscreen everyday, and know what base formula to look for when buying sunscreens. I’m also looking forward to try Tir Tir. I love the Mary and May cream essence, and it seems like Tir Tir offers the same level of nourishment, if not even better. In terms of the price of &Honey, I saw on Rakuten that they sell shampoo+conditioner set for around $18 😂 But even in Hong Kong, the shampoo is sold for $15. No idea why the price is so heavily inflated outside Japan.
So happy to hear you’re enjoying the Haruharu! That formula feels like such an upgrade compared to…everything. And that’s saying something! Omg $18 🥲 …the set was almost $50 for me (which is why I only got the shampoo, $25ish and then went to Fino for the mask haha!)
I'm excited about the TirTir products! I've also had the experience of ripping through moisturizing products so quickly when they're too light, and I feel terrible throwing away a hard plastic tub (non-recyclable) that I finished in 3 weeks. I'll be interested to hear your thoughts on the hair products once you've had time to form opinions. I've used the viral Elizavecca protein treatment mask but nothing else K- or J-beauty. Have a good weekend! 💞
After bragging here about how quickly I was getting my Stylevana orders (8-10 days!) I ordered some sunscreen and one of my fav toners I was running out of about 6 days before Black Friday and then I divided my large haul on Black Friday into 2 orders. But ONE of the orders was $65 the other was $116. I do check the in stock button. The 2 small orders arrived one day after the other. The $65 order came 22 days after I ordered it. The $116 order arrived 45 DAYS AFTER!!!!!! I’d forgotten as I also ordered from YesStyle (they had some of my always reorder stuff that Stylevana was out of) and that also came at 22 days. After watching your videos I need some weird things like those wrist thingies for washing your face and headbands so I need to do another YesStyle order…… I may get the eye cream too as the ONLY PLACE I have dry skin is under my eyes (my eyelids are oily!!! - the only place on my body with oily skin).
I came back to this video so say thank you so much for recommending the Tirtir toner. I already bought a second bottle for backup! I will be trying that serum at some point. It’s just so good and my skin has been looking so much healthier. Oh and the Lion Pair acne cream. That has done wonders for my skin too!
I am so happy to see you try the Isntree Pads and Ampoule. I have been using them for a while and I feel like my skin is improving. I love the toner pads so much. I split the pads and use them as dace masks. It is easy and mess free and it works great for my very oily and clog prone skin. The Ampoule has such a nice texture. I already purchased back ups for both products
Western hair care can be a challange as drugstore is mostly dedigbed for damadged hair and therebisbstill too much silicone and related in it. that can be so heavy on straight hair especially if it's more on the fine side (blond is normally more fine). I personally love the pyunkang yul shampoo. Giovanni shampoos are fantastic too. not sure if you can get it in the US but I will send you link to have a look. these are very light weight but caring nontheless.
Alice! I cant believe I missed this when it was originally posted - fantastic as always. However, I did want to say that some toner pads are made to separate so you can use them as a quick toner mask without plowing through them! And now I need to go add the TirTir back in my cart now that I know I it will last a while!
Hi Alice, Not long ago, Mandy Davis MUA, who really knows makeup(!), did a review of the Unleashia foundation. She loves it. She does have a darker shade than you and she uses a brush, not the cushion. I don't know if that will make your shade more workable. Like others who have commented, the shade looks OK on you. Maybe just one shade darker to try it. Thank you for your time and dedication to bring us these. I want to try the new sunscreen!
Thanks for the info! A brush sounds like a good idea, especially since it really is a liquid foundation if you ask me LOL. Will figure out how to make it work!
I really like the Isehan Kiss Me Heroine mascara and remover. I’m on the second tubes of each. The mascara looks really natural, is SUPER WATERPROOF and helps hold a curl- but it’s like cement without the special remover. I have been enjoying some of the Mary and May products for dry skin you recommended, will have to oook into Tir Tir next. Thanks for the fun video!
Not sure the exact amount of time but longer than the mascara- I completely finished first mascara and was well into the second tube before I needed to open a new remover- and a little goes a long way- one wandfull does both eyes just swipe a few times through lashes, brush my teeth for two minutes while it softens up then double cleanse.
Haha! The appeal of toner pads to me is that i dont need to go through an entire huge bottle of toner IF i end up feeling meh about them xD with the toner pads (especially the ones who offer trial packs like One Day's You) i can spam them all over my face and body to get through it fast + the big pads help too. If i end up loving the feel of the toner pads tho, i'm def getting the full toner bottle . also yes, i do like the slight step up in convenience lol!
Yay! So excited for all the upcoming haircare reviews. FYI: I tried the Some By Mi hair products and I was very disappointed. Btw, I have fine hair and I'm also losing a lot of hair 😢. But yet again, another Korean product giving a concentrated amount so the tiny bottle will definitely last 1yr+.
I think the foundation looks really good, it matches your neck and looks pretty seamless. Also for mascara, I recently tried the Rom&ND mascara and woah...the length? Unrivaled. It clings to your lashes like cement tho, definitely need a mascara remover with it
I bought korean haircare last year and finally used them this year. Im still editing my video but glad we are both branching out! I want to get the fino mask too!
Hello! Oh,, I’d like to see the lizards but 80 degrees - not so much!😅 I enjoyed seeing your new updates from your favorite retailers. Can you recommend any from them for my oily, mature skin? Enjoy your weekend 🌸!
I think the isntree products are for any skin type, but especially those prone to any kind of irritation (that’s where you’ll see the most from them), the eye cream is a perfect day to day texture, and I think the EGF cream would work well also. Side note though, APLB also has an EGF line that I’m planning to try!
Another great video! I discovered TirTir on sokoglam and have tried the ampoule and the ceramic cream! I am also intrigued to try more and absolutely loved them both, felt so glowly! I am curious about how I would feel in summer with it but can't wait to hear more! 😊
Hello, Alice. Would you recommend Tirtir toner and ampoule for oily dehydrated skin and for antiwrinkle benefits? Also, please, review BIOHEAL BOH PANTHECELL Repair Cica Cream Mist. There are no reviews on this product on youtube. Thank you for all your reviews! 💖💖💖
OMG Alice💖, u bought the Coxir peptide cream😅, my holy grail at night after using my retinol serum, because my dermatologist says peptides and retinol work amazing together, I need to try the Isintree and Haruharu sunscreen because my eyes are so sensitive.😂
I love that you're going to try J-beauty haircare. I have the shisheido tsubaki line (the yellowy/gold line). I looove the conditioner and the hairmask. Makes my hair so soft and it smells soo good 😊❤ I'm personally not a fan of the shampoo, but thats because my scalp gets oily very fast and the tsubaki shampoo is just not deap cleansing enough. Would probably work really well on more normal/dry scalps. Also love the elizavecca haircare i tried so far (hairmask and leave in)!
Thank you for sharing! I feel like I was reading that on quite a few shampoos. Bizarrely my scalp is oily (wild. Nonsensical, even!!) - so I’ll keep that in mind!
I got a different version of the Fino line from Shiseido recently, the hair oil, and haven't had a chance to try it yet. Very interested to see your review for when I silk press my hair straight.
Hi Alice. Thanks for the recommendation of Tirtir toner. My skin is so dry and the toners just finished in 3 weeks... 😅 The texture is meant for dry skin... 🎉 Skin food brand is also a good Korean brand since it features certain ingredients meant for certain skin concern. Japanese brand for hair care is very nice with fragrance and my hair is also light weight and straight, they weigh down upon too much treatment products... 😂
The scents in these products are heavenly! Which is great as I do quite enjoy a nice smell in my haircare products ☺️ Thank you for the info on Skinfood!
I am also super super dry and I have been loving Tir Tir so far! And the fino hair mask, I love it! Can’t wait for the other Tir Tir products to try! Thanks Alice💕🙏🏻
Ooh been eyeing Tirtir ! I got a stylevana order in trying Sana co q 10 moisture milk. Got the RNW and few other things. Excited to talk more about barrier care
I bought some Asian hair care products but haven’t tried much yet. I am overstocked with everything at the moment. I am curious to know your thoughts. I am looking forward to your reviews of the barrier repair products.
Have just seen that the onion pads have sodium heparin in them. Not sure if that’s unique but can see why it would be great to treat broken capillaries from old sun damage!
i love the curesys patches! i remembered with microdart patches started becoming a thing, and i tried to find all the brands that youtubers were reviewing but i couldnt fiind or get access to anywhere i live and found the curesys one
I’m really surprised I haven’t heard more about them! Pretty much the same as acropass (without the wipes but those feel optional!) except more affordable!
@@AliceintheRabbitHole they also have microdart patches for blemishes/dark spots (from acne mostly, i think?) i remembered liking them when i used them but right now my face is a mess so i dont really spot treat my dark spots anymore 😅
Excited to hear about the hair products and Tir Tir! I’ve been trying Korean hair products and love them all. The Tir Tir serum kind of looks like a reverse emulsion if you’ve tried those types of products? They tend to be runny, almost pasty, and can feel really emollient and almost occlusive.
I added the TirTir toner to my Stylevana cart before ordering today because you hinted that it was amazing in a previous video. I have dry mature skin and rosacea. I will add the ampule to my wishlist. I love the Isntree Onion Newpair toner and serum, it is kind to reddened, sensitive skin and I think it helps with the inflammation.
So glad to hear you’re enjoying the onion newpair products! And yup, it’s the inflammation fighting element that has me so in love 😍- truly special products!
Question! Have you ever thought about getting prescription azelaic acid? I know you like the ingredient so I’m just curious your thoughts knowing a lot of studies have been done at the prescription percentages. I loved the peach slices one so much that I went to my derm to get it prescribed in a higher percentage and I find it works better but sadly it’s not as cosmetically elegant as the peach slices one. PS. You’re the reason I got into azelaic acid so thank you for that!!! ❤❤❤
Hmm, I think I might if my acne worsened. Given that it’s pretty manageable right now, my biggest goal is: avoid my allergens! But yep I can see it being a very wise approach for those who would consider their acne not yet resolved!
One thing I really like about toner pads is I know exactly how many uses I’m getting for the price 🤷🏻♀️ And it ensures I’m not over using the product which I sometimes tend to do and then I’m wasting product
Oh Alice, there you go blaming the lizards for your warm house... So someone mentioned something about the APLB glutathione niacinamide supplements. Do you have an opinion on those? Also, I see Jumiso has a Waterfall Hyaluronic Acid line for dry skin. It has a toner, serum, moisturizer and sunscreen.
🤪😆 I bought those supplements yup, curiosity got the best of me! But I figure it’s best to hold off my thoughts until I finish the bottle, so that will be coming at some point. Thanks for the info, I didn’t know it was a full line! I like the sunscreen ☺️
Loved The Office reference 😂😂 another great try-on video. I have oily skin and just discovered that it loves a milky toner in the winter. Will have to try the Tir Tir next😊
21:21 I really want to try the honey shampoo ❤ I have used up the Fino hair mask, to me it was really heavy (and I have dense curly hair) for a great shampoo- Some By Mi cica peptide shampoo is heavenly. Makes my scalp feel perfectly balanced and I did pay attention to the amount of hair fall during my first bottle- I do think I shed a bit less 🤷
You’ll probably have better luck buying the &honey from Amazon Japan. Need to buy in bulk to offset shipping but I’d never go back. And I assume to US would be cheaper than from where I have to have it sent to.
Been interested in tirtir. Maybe it was skincupid etc who recommended it for anti-aging and drier skin types. I did purchase the coxir snail collagen cream(for those who do love the benefits of the Cosrx snail essence etc, @madaboutskin claims the coxir cream is a more advanced formula). I’m wanting to try the BOJ revive retin eye cream. Any thoughts anyone?
Omg!!! Yes I remember the wet and wild peel mask!! The April Skin calendula line is actually super sensitive. I like the serum in that line. Can't get the whole toner pad craze either... They are easy in the mornings. I NEED to try the Onion Line.
Alice! Hi! I’m glad you’re feeling better my friend :) it’s funny what you said about mispronunciations because listen I don’t want to be this person, but I am this person at least for one of the brands which is your favorite isntree I feel like it’s not hard to say and yet there’s this beauty product formulator on TikTok that says INNISTREE and we know that Innisfree exist so I just don’t like it 😂 but it doesn’t make me angry or anything I still watch her content, it’s just a little annoying. Wow, I was actually not around for the disaster of the peel-off mask. However, I have gone back since following your channel and I’ve watched all of your old skin care videos so I do know what you’re referring to.. I also had a horrible time doing a charcoal peel off mask 🥴it was painful!!! No thanks I’ll take a creamy hydrating mask instead please I’m only interested in toner pads IF the brand hasn't made a toner with the same ingredients.
Lol I know who you’re talking about! Granted I started to doubt myself on that one too, as apparently the brand “Flortte” is pronounced “Florette” (what in the world LOL) I might have deleted it as it was a limited edition collection they did. Actually it might have been the last skincare release wet and wild ever did Ooh good point. It does seem a lot of toner pads include PHA too, while if there is a liquid toner companion, it won’t have the PHA (both this and Anua are good examples!)
@@AliceintheRabbitHoleoh wow 😂 they should really include pronunciation with that one! Oh? I watched it sometime last year. I remember because you also had put in another girls video that had the same experience and I watched hers too 😬 wet n wild definitely did that unicorn mask wrong somehow! Yes! Exactly! Other than that like you said, I don’t see the point in getting a toner pad if it’s the same thing as the toner but I think it kind of boils down to lazy skin care 😂 just slapping a toner pad on your face instead of making your own.
😂 i would totally be in heaven at ur house, my favorite beauty products, Alice and 80 degrees 😂 i also live in a reptile household 😂 we would be the best of friends . LOL i can bring u all kind of reptile lights rocks vitamins u name it 😂 u have all the skincare and i have the reptile supplies.
Haha I love it!! I gotta admit, with the reptile accessories, I’m shocked how much it’s been a guessing game (where I don’t always guess right the first time lol). Or they grow. I’ve had to buy 3 different hides for our pacman frog because she just kept outgrowing them 🤣
Hey Alice! Short question - I cant choose between MISSHA - Chogongjin eye cream and Hemish Marine one - my undereyes are very dry, wrinkly etc, most important of course - anti-aging and keeping them moisturised and hydrated, how are they different in those terms and which one should i go for?:)
It depends which chogongjin eye cream! I would say in terms of occlusivity/repair: chogongjin geumsul < Heimish < chogongjin youngan So the youngan is really a phenomenal night eye cream, but not a good choice for day (not good under makeup at all actually, good example of what I was going off about in this video lol)
@@AliceintheRabbitHole I meant the one that you really loved from Choginjijn for eyes so Nude color/ white jar with Royal Jelly vs MArine Heimish - they both seemed rich and occlusive, and I want it for the night, so not sure which one is better in terms of anti-aging, hydration and moisturizing (all we need for eyes I guess, since i dont believe in brightening the cappilaires ;D) ?
@@ainakunigelyte honestly that one is a good all-in-one choice. Not the thickest texture for night (Heimish is thicker), but if you just want one eye cream, yeah it’s a good one ☺️
Are you also using any products with fermented ingredients currently like the Manyo bifida ampoule? Just wondering if you can attribute the good skin month to the isntree products alone or is it the combination with your other products?
I still use bifida ferment lysate allll the time, but funny enough, I’ve been finishing my axis-y products this month Tbh, I think it’s hard for any of us skincare channels to control things down to one product; instead, it’s more likely that we figure out the elements that help us tackle skin concerns. I kind of cover this in my recent ingredients vs products video (which I think is more helpful than narrowing things down to products alone). Hope that helps!
80 degree house... box of skincare... Also hard agree on lights being a necessary evil. They can make you look better and worse, somehow all at the same time.
The TirTir Ceramic Milk Ampoule seems like something I want Now for my dry skin...but it only comes in 10ml, at least on Stylevana....isn't that ity bity?
LOL I load products on people who visit too! “Oh you have a Clinique toner? It’s SA? Let me show you a cheaper better option! No, you can keep it, it’s half empty anyway! All yours!” In fact I was just decluttering my skincare stash of all the products that didn’t work for me late last year so I can send them to my mom. About once every two months, I send her a curated box of samples and makeup and skincare that didn’t work out (nothing gross like doe foot products but things like body butters I think she might like more!). For Christmas, I bought her a ton of Lisa Eldridge makeup (every year I get her LE since I showed her LE about 10 years ago - it’s tradition now) and then brought like… a drawer of sanitized lipsticks and eyeshadow palettes I thought she’d like. So yeah. Same brain! 😂
Hahaha yup, do you also occasionally give away something you love because you *could not resist* 🤣 I had to reorder a brush set after I accidentally - “accidentally” I mean - gave it away 😆 it’s too fun to share!!
@@AliceintheRabbitHole YES I just want to share my joy of the thing with someone SO BADLY lol. Books, makeup, skincare. I will give things away if I think someone will like or love it!
You didn’t mention whether or not the Tir Tir products contain fragrance, so I’m assuming that they do. (?) 🤔 Unfortunately, any kind of fragrance tends to irritate my skin. 😏
The ingredients should be up on the screen! No “fragrance” in terms of how the word is commonly used, but there are plant extracts in both - so I would check for allergens ☺️
@AliceintheRabbitHole. Yes. Commonly used “scented” (a.k.a.”fragranced”) oils like tea tree, lavender, sandalwood, peppermint, eucalyptus, lemon verbena, sage, rosemary, etc, are common irritants for those w/ sensitive skin. They can cause breakouts, rashes or damage to the skin barrier (depending on amounts). Thanks for listing the ingredients. I appreciate the fact that you actually discuss the ingredients. Unfortunately, I view YT via mobile device and can’t read many on screen lists. Oh well. Maybe Tir Tir will make an unscented version of their products someday.
Why the heck do brands formulate products with ingredients I can’t use? Don’t they know that I want to love them but can’t even try them? JK. NR. It looks like I can try the TirTir ampoule. So, thank you for finding it. Do you happen to know if the M&M Idobenone cream’s cholesterol is from plants or animals? I suspect it’s the latter since the product isn’t called out as being vegan, but I hope you know which animal it comes from. I’m not getting a quick response from them. And I won’t try it until I find out. If it’s from sheep, it will burn my skin. (I mean burn as in measured by degrees burn.) I feel like an idiot for not seeing cholesterol in the ingredients list.
Yup haha, I love mung beans: I just couldn’t resist a The Office reference Though truth be told, when that episode aired I wondered, “oh gosh, has my food smelled bad to other people for ~my whole life~” 🤣
I tried a number of Japanese shampoos in Japan and found them ok, but I felt like they were not hydrating enough and there were no bond repair or damage remedy stuff, it was all so basic. I wonder they are probably made for that super straight strong asian hair rather than western hair and no one gets all the balayage and highlights and all the other bleaching and fashion colours we do here. I found that the haircare was not as nourishing as brands like Olaplex and Amika, felt very drugstore-ish. I did like the hair oils, but then again nothing in Japanese haircare beat my go-to pureology, olaplex, amika, redken etc...
Oh interesting thank you so much for sharing! Maybe I’ll go with a “best of both worlds” approach and keep my olaplex 3 in the routine. That’s hard for me to ditch anyway as I’ve seen it do so much for my hair (likely because, yup, bleach lol)
15:00 "Is this really going to be that differe-Yes." 😂 Girl you crack me up. Also I RAN to that wet n wild review - I can't believe it made your skin BLEED! Thats horrible 😥

Regarding "for all hair type" Western hair products, I believe they are mainly designed for thicker, straight hair, and perhaps slightly wavy hair, but definitely not for curly or coily hair. Using products not intended for curly or coily hair tends to dry it out. Additionally, it's often needed to use more products like leave-in and gel to achieve some definition.
I enjoy your videos and hope Korean haircare works for you!❤
Ah that does make sense. My partner has wavy hair and can practically grab anything from the shelf, I guess because her hair is pretty in-the-middle (seems it would be convenient lol!) Whereas sooo much weighs my hair down. Very excited to try out these products!
I'm definitely hooked on the Isntree onion line. There is a visible improvement in the healing speed of my acne marks. I have hormonal acne, a pimple here and there would show up on my period and the marks usually stick around to the next period. I'm constantly stacking acne marks and hyperpigmentation. Just by using the toner and applying my DIY pads on the acne, they were going away faster. So now I got myself the cream. For a combination skin, it's a perfect moist/texture balance and I've been particularly focusing on the problematic areas. I think I might just get the ampoule next time. I'm IN LOVE.
Also about StyleVANA shipping, last time on black Friday, I didn't pay attention that I had an item in my cart that was "available in 30 days". So it took literally 30 days for that item to be in stock, and from there 2 weeks for my order to be delivered. So, 6 weeks in total. This month, I made sure everything was "available within 24h", and my order arrived in ONE week. So I guess the best way is to divide your cart based on the availability of the products.
It’s an incredible line. I really believe that anyone who deals with any kind of inflammation or irritation, be it from acne or something else, will see results from it!
And yup, the availability on stylevana makes a tremendous difference. I feel like it should be in the most gigantic print on the webpage!!
Combo skin girl with hormonal acne here is so thankful for your reply. I started feeling like I was in kindergarten again and I can connect the dots on my face with old marks and new pimples. The bifida ferment lysate products have been helpful too! BFL is my new BFF.
Saw the TirTir toner and immediately thought it would be a nice replacement for Laniege Cream Skin for me. (Also I admit was also highly interested when I noticed that EXO's member Baekhyun advertising it) Milky toners are what my dry skin needs now. I'll keep TirTir in my next new brand to try out!
Yes!! Especially because I hear the Laneige reformulation isn’t working out as well as the old for a lot of folks 😞 - but this is better than the old version anyway, at least imo!
@@AliceintheRabbitHoleI was eyeing TirTir for some time wanted to know your opinion. I’m sold now love the look of the ampule too 🤤 will be ordering.
I am excited about the hair products. Have a wonderful weekend ❌️ ⭕️
Thank you! Hope you have a fantastic weekend too 🥰
the Instree pads are designed that way so you can easily tear off the layers to use them as a sheet mask
I like toner pads because in my head it feels wasteful dumping all the toner on to a cotton pad to use as a sheet mask. I know realistically it probably works out to be the same. The Isntree pads may be designed to pull apart like that! I watched a video with Euni & Soo where they pulled the pads apart the Skinfood toner pads like that before using them like a sheet mask.
!! That could explain it, thank you so much
LOVE the TIRTIR milky toner!! I liked the Isntree yam toner initially, but the texture is so watery so I wanted to try a different Kbeauty milky toner and so glad I landed on the TIRTIR! Can’t wait to try their ampoule you recommended in this video :)
Yes!! It feels so much more condensed in comparison to Isntree’s 🤩
I feel like that foundation shade is exactly your color. But only by Korean beauty standards, not by western standards. Most Koreans prefer their foundation to be a little lighter than their skin color to get that brightened look.
For YesStyle, I think you hit the nail on the head when you talked about needing to find the jbeauty haircare over there. YesStyle has the best overall selection, not the best prices. It can still be a great location for someone who casually shops asian beauty to get their entire haul from one shop, or who prefers buying singular products from high end brands not carried by Style Korean/Stylevana or carried as individual products from Jolse (that has a larger focus on kits from luxury brands).
I am interested in your review of Tirtir (I was interested but haven't purchased anything yet), and I totally understand what you're saying about dry skin but feel that's only a fully accurate description of non-luxury products. My understanding is that brands are much more segmented in Korea to appeal to specific demographics. Most of the products we talk about when we discuss k-beauty are at a lower price point and those brands are marketed to younger demographics. Given the humid climate and target demographic, I feel a lot of brands cater towards a client base without as many dry skin concerns. The luxury brands marketed towards an older on the other hand tend to have far more moisturizing options available (acknowledging that due to climate they may still be less rich than western alternatives). For this reason, even though I don't have the driest skin, I no longer try hardly any moisturizers or second cleansers from k-beauty other than luxury options.
That is exactly what I’ve been thinking as well! Given that the Chogongjin products are great for dry skin, and how mature skin typically (though not always) tends to be more dry, I can absolutely see how dry skin folks could prefer those lines instead. No matter their age!
And yes, that really is yesstyle’s strength. They’ve even started to carry western brands, which is so very interesting to me. They’re doing well, and I think it’s because if you’re looking for a particular Asian beauty product, they WILL have it!
They have said the new skin1004 line is more geared towards aging skin and even more moisturizing. I’m still looking for more affordable options as well
It's true, I've been noticing you've got the most beautiful skin 😊. Good evening from Trinidad and Tobago.
Thank you! ☺️
Alice, I was very interested in Tirtir products, because I have dry skin, I also realized that they do not contain hyaluronic acid like all brands and I live in an extremely dry climate so I am even more interested. Regarding products for damaged hair, I have heard very good reviews of the DR.FORHAIR brand, which are called UNOVE, but they are quite expensive. I hope you are better than last week. A hug and have a nice day Alice 😘
Good catch on the lack of HA! That’s so hard to find these days; I’m grateful I can use those ingredients but I do feel bad for those who can’t
Thank you for the suggestions 🥰
Some people prefer toner pads for not only convenience and quick application, but also because they're generally just easier to use!
I personally don't really enjoy using masks and prefer to use the toner straight on my skin without DIY-masking or using toner pads. However, I have mobility issues and love toner pads for the days when my mobility is low. It's much easier for me to open, pull out and put on my face a pre wet toner pad, than it is for me to DIY a toner mask.
I actually tried your method last night after shaving my face and while I did LOVE the results, it's not something I'll be able to do regularly or on my low-mobility days. My skin was glowing like the sun after though!
I bought the etude lash serum on a whim. After 3 weeks, I was about to give up when I noticed that my lashes had grown really long and I had lashes the entire length of my lids. I think that just by improving the health of the lashes, they don't fall off early and so have time to grow longer. Happy with the serum and will keep using it. I also got the DHC lash serum but was not impressed.
Another surprising find was the numbuzin no 5 vitamin concentrate serum. I wanted to try a brightening serum.and the ingredient list looked good. My skin has become a lovely even tone in a week !! Most people use it with the no5 toner pad but I went with only the serum.
I am waiting for your prequel.review. They have added a Vit C and a sunscreen. Happy weekend!
Thank you for sharing! It does make sense, and it’s almost funny how little attention we pay to lash health. It likely plays a bigger role than the mascara we choose, though that seems to get all the attention!
So excited for the comparison update for retailers, cause this is something I’ve noticed too and been asked about
Your skin always looks so nice!!! I have been having such a bad skin month. Have no idea why i'm breaking out.
Love your videos!!! Can't wait for your barrier video!
Thank you so much for introducing us to this new generation of sunscreen formula. I’ve been let down by so many sunscreens, including biore, Nivea, purito, innisfree, and skin1004. I knew sunscreen is essential, but all of them irritated my eyes. Every time I tried new sunscreens, I’m kinda expecting it to not work and me wasting my money. That’s until i tried haruharu sunscreen you recommended. It is the best sunscreen I’ve ever tried. It has a natural finish, hydrating, no white cast, perfect under makeup, and doesn’t irritate my eyes. I can finally wear sunscreen everyday, and know what base formula to look for when buying sunscreens.
I’m also looking forward to try Tir Tir. I love the Mary and May cream essence, and it seems like Tir Tir offers the same level of nourishment, if not even better.
In terms of the price of &Honey, I saw on Rakuten that they sell shampoo+conditioner set for around $18 😂 But even in Hong Kong, the shampoo is sold for $15. No idea why the price is so heavily inflated outside Japan.
So happy to hear you’re enjoying the Haruharu! That formula feels like such an upgrade compared to…everything. And that’s saying something!
Omg $18 🥲 …the set was almost $50 for me (which is why I only got the shampoo, $25ish and then went to Fino for the mask haha!)
I'm excited about the TirTir products! I've also had the experience of ripping through moisturizing products so quickly when they're too light, and I feel terrible throwing away a hard plastic tub (non-recyclable) that I finished in 3 weeks.
I'll be interested to hear your thoughts on the hair products once you've had time to form opinions. I've used the viral Elizavecca protein treatment mask but nothing else K- or J-beauty.
Have a good weekend! 💞
Yes!! Oh gosh I feel so bad when I run though a product on an unreasonable time frame 😭
Hope you have a great weekend too!
After bragging here about how quickly I was getting my Stylevana orders (8-10 days!) I ordered some sunscreen and one of my fav toners I was running out of about 6 days before Black Friday and then I divided my large haul on Black Friday into 2 orders. But ONE of the orders was $65 the other was $116. I do check the in stock button. The 2 small orders arrived one day after the other. The $65 order came 22 days after I ordered it. The $116 order arrived 45 DAYS AFTER!!!!!! I’d forgotten as I also ordered from YesStyle (they had some of my always reorder stuff that Stylevana was out of) and that also came at 22 days. After watching your videos I need some weird things like those wrist thingies for washing your face and headbands so I need to do another YesStyle order…… I may get the eye cream too as the ONLY PLACE I have dry skin is under my eyes (my eyelids are oily!!! - the only place on my body with oily skin).
I came back to this video so say thank you so much for recommending the Tirtir toner. I already bought a second bottle for backup! I will be trying that serum at some point. It’s just so good and my skin has been looking so much healthier. Oh and the Lion Pair acne cream. That has done wonders for my skin too!
I am so happy to see you try the Isntree Pads and Ampoule. I have been using them for a while and I feel like my skin is improving. I love the toner pads so much. I split the pads and use them as dace masks. It is easy and mess free and it works great for my very oily and clog prone skin. The Ampoule has such a nice texture. I already purchased back ups for both products
Thanks for sharing! ☺️
Western hair care can be a challange as drugstore is mostly dedigbed for damadged hair and therebisbstill too much silicone and related in it. that can be so heavy on straight hair especially if it's more on the fine side (blond is normally more fine). I personally love the pyunkang yul shampoo. Giovanni shampoos are fantastic too. not sure if you can get it in the US but I will send you link to have a look. these are very light weight but caring nontheless.
Yo! The TirTir toner is sooooooooo goooooooood
SOOOO good!!
Thank you so much for the office mung bean reference, it made my very rough day❤
Alice! I cant believe I missed this when it was originally posted - fantastic as always. However, I did want to say that some toner pads are made to separate so you can use them as a quick toner mask without plowing through them! And now I need to go add the TirTir back in my cart now that I know I it will last a while!
Hi Alice, Not long ago, Mandy Davis MUA, who really knows makeup(!), did a review of the Unleashia foundation. She loves it. She does have a darker shade than you and she uses a brush, not the cushion. I don't know if that will make your shade more workable. Like others who have commented, the shade looks OK on you. Maybe just one shade darker to try it. Thank you for your time and dedication to bring us these. I want to try the new sunscreen!
Thanks for the info! A brush sounds like a good idea, especially since it really is a liquid foundation if you ask me LOL. Will figure out how to make it work!
I really like the Isehan Kiss Me Heroine mascara and remover. I’m on the second tubes of each. The mascara looks really natural, is SUPER WATERPROOF and helps hold a curl- but it’s like cement without the special remover. I have been enjoying some of the Mary and May products for dry skin you recommended, will have to oook into Tir Tir next. Thanks for the fun video!
Can I ask you how long the tube of remover lasts you? I’m thinking it probably has a 3 month lifespan like mascara, just hopefully not less haha
Not sure the exact amount of time but longer than the mascara- I completely finished first mascara and was well into the second tube before I needed to open a new remover- and a little goes a long way- one wandfull does both eyes just swipe a few times through lashes, brush my teeth for two minutes while it softens up then double cleanse.
Haha! The appeal of toner pads to me is that i dont need to go through an entire huge bottle of toner IF i end up feeling meh about them xD with the toner pads (especially the ones who offer trial packs like One Day's You) i can spam them all over my face and body to get through it fast + the big pads help too. If i end up loving the feel of the toner pads tho, i'm def getting the full toner bottle .
also yes, i do like the slight step up in convenience lol!
Yay! So excited for all the upcoming haircare reviews. FYI: I tried the Some By Mi hair products and I was very disappointed. Btw, I have fine hair and I'm also losing a lot of hair 😢. But yet again, another Korean product giving a concentrated amount so the tiny bottle will definitely last 1yr+.
I think the foundation looks really good, it matches your neck and looks pretty seamless. Also for mascara, I recently tried the Rom&ND mascara and woah...the length? Unrivaled. It clings to your lashes like cement tho, definitely need a mascara remover with it
Ooh thank you for sharing! This was a breeze to remove but a bit tricky to apply (hoping it clumps less as it dries out though lol)
I was recommended the tir tir ceramic skim I am obsessed! Perfect for this cold weather and dry skin 😊
I bought korean haircare last year and finally used them this year. Im still editing my video but glad we are both branching out! I want to get the fino mask too!
Ahh I can’t wait to hear your thoughts!
Never heard of Tir Tir, but when you said they have more moisture than Mary & May, I am intrigued! ❤
I am shocked! That ampoule in particular, oh my goodness - dry skin paradise lol
D
@celiareed1402 Mhmm, same! Aînd I really liked the look, ingredients and description of that TirTir ampule/serum and toner!
I adore the headband you are wearing, but haven’t been able to find it yet online. Would you mind sharing where you got it please? 😊
Your don’t look at my hair bit really made me laugh! Excited to hear how the hair products go for you
Hello! Oh,, I’d like to see the lizards but 80 degrees - not so much!😅 I enjoyed seeing your new updates from your favorite retailers. Can you recommend any from them for my oily, mature skin? Enjoy your weekend 🌸!
I think the isntree products are for any skin type, but especially those prone to any kind of irritation (that’s where you’ll see the most from them), the eye cream is a perfect day to day texture, and I think the EGF cream would work well also. Side note though, APLB also has an EGF line that I’m planning to try!
Another great video! I discovered TirTir on sokoglam and have tried the ampoule and the ceramic cream! I am also intrigued to try more and absolutely loved them both, felt so glowly! I am curious about how I would feel in summer with it but can't wait to hear more! 😊
Hello, Alice. Would you recommend Tirtir toner and ampoule for oily dehydrated skin and for antiwrinkle benefits? Also, please, review BIOHEAL BOH PANTHECELL Repair Cica Cream Mist. There are no reviews on this product on youtube. Thank you for all your reviews!
💖💖💖
OMG Alice💖, u bought the Coxir peptide cream😅, my holy grail at night after using my retinol serum, because my dermatologist says peptides and retinol work amazing together, I need to try the Isintree and Haruharu sunscreen because my eyes are so sensitive.😂
I'm so excited to hear about the hair care
I love that you're going to try J-beauty haircare. I have the shisheido tsubaki line (the yellowy/gold line). I looove the conditioner and the hairmask. Makes my hair so soft and it smells soo good 😊❤ I'm personally not a fan of the shampoo, but thats because my scalp gets oily very fast and the tsubaki shampoo is just not deap cleansing enough. Would probably work really well on more normal/dry scalps. Also love the elizavecca haircare i tried so far (hairmask and leave in)!
Thank you for sharing! I feel like I was reading that on quite a few shampoos. Bizarrely my scalp is oily (wild. Nonsensical, even!!) - so I’ll keep that in mind!
I got a different version of the Fino line from Shiseido recently, the hair oil, and haven't had a chance to try it yet. Very interested to see your review for when I silk press my hair straight.
Can't wait for the update on the hair care. 🙂
Hi Alice. Thanks for the recommendation of Tirtir toner. My skin is so dry and the toners just finished in 3 weeks... 😅 The texture is meant for dry skin... 🎉
Skin food brand is also a good Korean brand since it features certain ingredients meant for certain skin concern.
Japanese brand for hair care is very nice with fragrance and my hair is also light weight and straight, they weigh down upon too much treatment products... 😂
The scents in these products are heavenly! Which is great as I do quite enjoy a nice smell in my haircare products ☺️ Thank you for the info on Skinfood!
I am also super super dry and I have been loving Tir Tir so far! And the fino hair mask, I love it! Can’t wait for the other Tir Tir products to try! Thanks Alice💕🙏🏻
Ooh been eyeing Tirtir ! I got a stylevana order in trying Sana co q 10 moisture milk. Got the RNW and few other things. Excited to talk more about barrier care
Oooh nice haul! Let me know what you think of them ☺️
@@AliceintheRabbitHole like them all. Love the numbuzin skin soft. And of course the RNW. Hope your doing great 😃
have not watched the video yet but omg i woke up and saw &honey in the thumbnail and immediately clicked on it!! thank you for covering more j-beauty
OMG I have been wanting to try lador!!!!!!!
I bought some Asian hair care products but haven’t tried much yet. I am overstocked with everything at the moment. I am curious to know your thoughts.
I am looking forward to your reviews of the barrier repair products.
Have just seen that the onion pads have sodium heparin in them. Not sure if that’s unique but can see why it would be great to treat broken capillaries from old sun damage!
Yes!! Its such a brilliant formula 🤩
i love the curesys patches! i remembered with microdart patches started becoming a thing, and i tried to find all the brands that youtubers were reviewing but i couldnt fiind or get access to anywhere i live and found the curesys one
I’m really surprised I haven’t heard more about them! Pretty much the same as acropass (without the wipes but those feel optional!) except more affordable!
@@AliceintheRabbitHole they also have microdart patches for blemishes/dark spots (from acne mostly, i think?) i remembered liking them when i used them but right now my face is a mess so i dont really spot treat my dark spots anymore 😅
Excited to hear about the hair products and Tir Tir! I’ve been trying Korean hair products and love them all. The Tir Tir serum kind of looks like a reverse emulsion if you’ve tried those types of products? They tend to be runny, almost pasty, and can feel really emollient and almost occlusive.
Oh maybe! Yeah I could see that
I added the TirTir toner to my Stylevana cart before ordering today because you hinted that it was amazing in a previous video. I have dry mature skin and rosacea. I will add the ampule to my wishlist. I love the Isntree Onion Newpair toner and serum, it is kind to reddened, sensitive skin and I think it helps with the inflammation.
So glad to hear you’re enjoying the onion newpair products! And yup, it’s the inflammation fighting element that has me so in love 😍- truly special products!
Question! Have you ever thought about getting prescription azelaic acid? I know you like the ingredient so I’m just curious your thoughts knowing a lot of studies have been done at the prescription percentages. I loved the peach slices one so much that I went to my derm to get it prescribed in a higher percentage and I find it works better but sadly it’s not as cosmetically elegant as the peach slices one.
PS. You’re the reason I got into azelaic acid so thank you for that!!! ❤❤❤
Hmm, I think I might if my acne worsened. Given that it’s pretty manageable right now, my biggest goal is: avoid my allergens!
But yep I can see it being a very wise approach for those who would consider their acne not yet resolved!
One thing I really like about toner pads is I know exactly how many uses I’m getting for the price 🤷🏻♀️
And it ensures I’m not over using the product which I sometimes tend to do and then I’m wasting product
That’s a very good point!
Oh Alice, there you go blaming the lizards for your warm house... So someone mentioned something about the APLB glutathione niacinamide supplements. Do you have an opinion on those? Also, I see Jumiso has a Waterfall Hyaluronic Acid line for dry skin. It has a toner, serum, moisturizer and sunscreen.
🤪😆
I bought those supplements yup, curiosity got the best of me! But I figure it’s best to hold off my thoughts until I finish the bottle, so that will be coming at some point. Thanks for the info, I didn’t know it was a full line! I like the sunscreen ☺️
Do you have a favorite k beauty bb cream? Could you do a k beauty bb cream review video?
Loved The Office reference 😂😂 another great try-on video. I have oily skin and just discovered that it loves a milky toner in the winter. Will have to try the Tir Tir next😊
Creed certainly is a goofball 🤣
I only know tirtir for their foundation. Lemme go to my nearest drugstore and buy the ampoule. my fes is sooo dry this winter
Elizavecca leave-in conditioner is great for fine hair. Any thoughts on the ouai shampoo for fine hair?
21:21 I really want to try the honey shampoo ❤
I have used up the Fino hair mask, to me it was really heavy (and I have dense curly hair) for a great shampoo- Some By Mi cica peptide shampoo is heavenly. Makes my scalp feel perfectly balanced and I did pay attention to the amount of hair fall during my first bottle- I do think I shed a bit less 🤷
Thank you for sharing! I didn’t even know some by mi had a shampoo option at all 🤯
I'm superdry, Tirtir looks amazing ❤
You’ll probably have better luck buying the &honey from Amazon Japan. Need to buy in bulk to offset shipping but I’d never go back. And I assume to US would be cheaper than from where I have to have it sent to.
Thanks for the tip! I’ve actually thought about ordering fude brushes there - maybe can finally justify it this way lol
The Fino mask makes my hair gorgeous with very little product ! 👌
😊
I use to use adapalene religiously then found out it was causing my extreme hair shedding so had to stop thankfully my acne is under control
Been interested in tirtir. Maybe it was skincupid etc who recommended it for anti-aging and drier skin types. I did purchase the coxir snail collagen cream(for those who do love the benefits of the Cosrx snail essence etc, @madaboutskin claims the coxir cream is a more advanced formula). I’m wanting to try the BOJ revive retin eye cream. Any thoughts anyone?
Yes!!!! So curious about Asian hair care🎉
😂😂 everyone leaves my house with Skincare and beauty products too 😂
~Kendra
Omg!!! Yes I remember the wet and wild peel mask!! The April Skin calendula line is actually super sensitive. I like the serum in that line.
Can't get the whole toner pad craze either... They are easy in the mornings. I NEED to try the Onion Line.
your reviews are seriously so helpful !!
have you tried the p.calm light active toner?
Alice! Hi! I’m glad you’re feeling better my friend :) it’s funny what you said about mispronunciations because listen I don’t want to be this person, but I am this person at least for one of the brands which is your favorite isntree I feel like it’s not hard to say and yet there’s this beauty product formulator on TikTok that says INNISTREE and we know that Innisfree exist so I just don’t like it 😂 but it doesn’t make me angry or anything I still watch her content, it’s just a little annoying.
Wow, I was actually not around for the disaster of the peel-off mask. However, I have gone back since following your channel and I’ve watched all of your old skin care videos so I do know what you’re referring to.. I also had a horrible time doing a charcoal peel off mask 🥴it was painful!!! No thanks I’ll take a creamy hydrating mask instead please
I’m only interested in toner pads IF the brand hasn't made a toner with the same ingredients.
Lol I know who you’re talking about! Granted I started to doubt myself on that one too, as apparently the brand “Flortte” is pronounced “Florette” (what in the world LOL)
I might have deleted it as it was a limited edition collection they did. Actually it might have been the last skincare release wet and wild ever did
Ooh good point. It does seem a lot of toner pads include PHA too, while if there is a liquid toner companion, it won’t have the PHA (both this and Anua are good examples!)
@@AliceintheRabbitHoleoh wow 😂 they should really include pronunciation with that one!
Oh? I watched it sometime last year. I remember because you also had put in another girls video that had the same experience and I watched hers too 😬 wet n wild definitely did that unicorn mask wrong somehow!
Yes! Exactly! Other than that like you said, I don’t see the point in getting a toner pad if it’s the same thing as the toner but I think it kind of boils down to lazy skin care 😂 just slapping a toner pad on your face instead of making your own.
I just ordered the lador too ❤
Hi Alice! Totally off topic, but do you have any k-beauty gels to use with micro-current device that you can recommend?
I was curious about TirTir products. I wanted to try the milk toner. It's gotten good reviews.
I’m blown away, at least in terms of dryness relief!
Try Tirtir SOS Serum. Holy grail.
PS, I need the barrier repair video ASSP! My face is hating this mid-Atlantic winter!😢
The honey shampoo is the most delicious scented shampoo I have ever had. (I have the repair one and the Osmanthus one.)
I cannot believe how good it smells 😭
🐰
The tir tir packaging looks beautiful
😂 i would totally be in heaven at ur house, my favorite beauty products, Alice and 80 degrees 😂 i also live in a reptile household 😂 we would be the best of friends . LOL i can bring u all kind of reptile lights rocks vitamins u name it 😂 u have all the skincare and i have the reptile supplies.
Haha I love it!! I gotta admit, with the reptile accessories, I’m shocked how much it’s been a guessing game (where I don’t always guess right the first time lol). Or they grow. I’ve had to buy 3 different hides for our pacman frog because she just kept outgrowing them 🤣
Hey Alice! Short question - I cant choose between MISSHA - Chogongjin eye cream and Hemish Marine one - my undereyes are very dry, wrinkly etc, most important of course - anti-aging and keeping them moisturised and hydrated, how are they different in those terms and which one should i go for?:)
It depends which chogongjin eye cream!
I would say in terms of occlusivity/repair: chogongjin geumsul < Heimish < chogongjin youngan
So the youngan is really a phenomenal night eye cream, but not a good choice for day (not good under makeup at all actually, good example of what I was going off about in this video lol)
@@AliceintheRabbitHole I meant the one that you really loved from Choginjijn for eyes so Nude color/ white jar with Royal Jelly vs MArine Heimish - they both seemed rich and occlusive, and I want it for the night, so not sure which one is better in terms of anti-aging, hydration and moisturizing (all we need for eyes I guess, since i dont believe in brightening the cappilaires ;D) ?
@@ainakunigelyte honestly that one is a good all-in-one choice. Not the thickest texture for night (Heimish is thicker), but if you just want one eye cream, yeah it’s a good one ☺️
If you haven’t tried the Tirtir ceramic cream and their Cica care cream, you’re missing out!!!!❤❤❤❤
👀👀
Hi! I have combo skin, can I use the TIRTIR toner with a vitamin C serum?
Are you also using any products with fermented ingredients currently like the Manyo bifida ampoule? Just wondering if you can attribute the good skin month to the isntree products alone or is it the combination with your other products?
I still use bifida ferment lysate allll the time, but funny enough, I’ve been finishing my axis-y products this month
Tbh, I think it’s hard for any of us skincare channels to control things down to one product; instead, it’s more likely that we figure out the elements that help us tackle skin concerns. I kind of cover this in my recent ingredients vs products video (which I think is more helpful than narrowing things down to products alone). Hope that helps!
Please do a review on Primera, korean brand
Could you do a some by mi range review?
80 degree house... box of skincare...
Also hard agree on lights being a necessary evil. They can make you look better and worse, somehow all at the same time.
See you get me!! I don’t understand how it’s possible 🥲
The TirTir Ceramic Milk Ampoule seems like something I want Now for my dry skin...but it only comes in 10ml, at least on Stylevana....isn't that ity bity?
There’s a 40ml option ☺️
guys is the skin1004 probiotics ampoule comparable to tirtir ampoule? which one u think is better?
I would say the skin1004 is a creamy ampoule, while the tirtir is creamy with an emollient/oily sensation. Better would depend on your preferences ☺️
LOL I load products on people who visit too! “Oh you have a Clinique toner? It’s SA? Let me show you a cheaper better option! No, you can keep it, it’s half empty anyway! All yours!” In fact I was just decluttering my skincare stash of all the products that didn’t work for me late last year so I can send them to my mom. About once every two months, I send her a curated box of samples and makeup and skincare that didn’t work out (nothing gross like doe foot products but things like body butters I think she might like more!). For Christmas, I bought her a ton of Lisa Eldridge makeup (every year I get her LE since I showed her LE about 10 years ago - it’s tradition now) and then brought like… a drawer of sanitized lipsticks and eyeshadow palettes I thought she’d like.
So yeah. Same brain! 😂
Hahaha yup, do you also occasionally give away something you love because you *could not resist* 🤣 I had to reorder a brush set after I accidentally - “accidentally” I mean - gave it away 😆 it’s too fun to share!!
@@AliceintheRabbitHole YES I just want to share my joy of the thing with someone SO BADLY lol. Books, makeup, skincare. I will give things away if I think someone will like or love it!
You didn’t mention whether or not the Tir Tir products contain fragrance, so I’m assuming that they do. (?) 🤔 Unfortunately, any kind of fragrance tends to irritate my skin. 😏
The ingredients should be up on the screen! No “fragrance” in terms of how the word is commonly used, but there are plant extracts in both - so I would check for allergens ☺️
@AliceintheRabbitHole. Yes. Commonly used “scented” (a.k.a.”fragranced”) oils like tea tree, lavender, sandalwood, peppermint, eucalyptus, lemon verbena, sage, rosemary, etc, are common irritants for those w/ sensitive skin. They can cause breakouts, rashes or damage to the skin barrier (depending on amounts). Thanks for listing the ingredients. I appreciate the fact that you actually discuss the ingredients. Unfortunately, I view YT via mobile device and can’t read many on screen lists. Oh well. Maybe Tir Tir will make an unscented version of their products someday.
Why the heck do brands formulate products with ingredients I can’t use? Don’t they know that I want to love them but can’t even try them? JK. NR. It looks like I can try the TirTir ampoule. So, thank you for finding it.
Do you happen to know if the M&M Idobenone cream’s cholesterol is from plants or animals? I suspect it’s the latter since the product isn’t called out as being vegan, but I hope you know which animal it comes from. I’m not getting a quick response from them. And I won’t try it until I find out. If it’s from sheep, it will burn my skin. (I mean burn as in measured by degrees burn.) I feel like an idiot for not seeing cholesterol in the ingredients list.
Unfortunately i cant use the tirtir products becsuse they contain theobroma cacao which irritates my skin causing an exzema breakout.
I think the toner pads are truly just convenience. I prefer making my own.❌️⭕️
Yeah, it is a hair faster to just open a tub. I like the variety of having whatever toners I want and a box of pads to use with any of them ☺️
I didn’t even know that toner pads were a thing- a clear illustration of the fact that I do not watch beauty content on TikTok, I think. 😅
Lol I insist that you try all the mungbean related Vietnamese food. They do not smell like death. 😅
Yup haha, I love mung beans: I just couldn’t resist a The Office reference
Though truth be told, when that episode aired I wondered, “oh gosh, has my food smelled bad to other people for ~my whole life~” 🤣
Can you compare nacific Uyu cream toner with 15% jeju milk extract toner with the tirtir toner?
So sorry, I haven’t tried that one 😔
@@AliceintheRabbitHole hope you try it out someday & review it.
Also eagerly waiting for your shiseido fino hair mask review
YesStyle has more brands and products than Stylevana and StyleKorean. So it’s somewhere in the middle.
Very true
I tried a number of Japanese shampoos in Japan and found them ok, but I felt like they were not hydrating enough and there were no bond repair or damage remedy stuff, it was all so basic. I wonder they are probably made for that super straight strong asian hair rather than western hair and no one gets all the balayage and highlights and all the other bleaching and fashion colours we do here. I found that the haircare was not as nourishing as brands like Olaplex and Amika, felt very drugstore-ish. I did like the hair oils, but then again nothing in Japanese haircare beat my go-to pureology, olaplex, amika, redken etc...
Oh interesting thank you so much for sharing! Maybe I’ll go with a “best of both worlds” approach and keep my olaplex 3 in the routine. That’s hard for me to ditch anyway as I’ve seen it do so much for my hair (likely because, yup, bleach lol)
15:00 "Is this really going to be that differe-Yes." 😂 Girl you crack me up. Also I RAN to that wet n wild review - I can't believe it made your skin BLEED! Thats horrible 😥
It was the worst skincare product I have ever tried, and that is really saying something 👀
