Ebay/Amazon Suggestions 

After recently seeing the Picky post on where to buy skincare it got me thinking. I have been wanting to check out buying from EBay or Amazon that ship to the US. There are more variety and cheaper than some internet sites I buy from, I am paranoid of getting fake or counterfeit items especially in skincare.  The only one on Amazon I have heard of that is good is CrediThink.

Does anyone have suggestions on retailers or sellers that you can trust/rely on for proper skincare. Thanks for any help!

Suggestions?

So I got this a while back and have finally started using it in my routine. I heard so many things about this and thought it was going to be great. I was wrong. Did anyone else experience a film like layer being left on the skin?

I have had such a hard time removing this product, any suggestions or trick with this product that I might be doing wrong? I don’t want to waste it but have felt like I have tried everything to like this.

I know this is a holy grail for a lot of people but maybe I just am doing something wrong. Any tips are appreciated!  

Also, which is your favorite oil/balm cleanser?

Unpopular Opinion

Vitamin C Products?

I am looking for a good Vitam C product that actually works and can see results. I have researched different products outside of Picky and then here in Picky and I keep getting different feedback. HELP!!! I need some feedback because I am back at square one, lol! I am listing a few products I had looked into, but now it am not sure how to proceed. Thanks!

I know I listed a lot but I am lost and do not know where to start since I get contradicting reviews so I move to a different one, lol! Any help is appreciated since I know here they will be real feedback from real people, lol!

Vitamin C Recommendations

Every Category 

So if you had to pick a product for each category of your your routine what would it be? What is your Holy Grail pick that you just keep going back to? I thought this would be a fun topic to hear everyone’s favorite products in their routines!

Holy Grails!!!

Tightening products? Do the Exist?

I have recently lost weight and between natural aging and losing weight I have noticed lose skin on my neck. I have become self conscious about this and am looking to see if anyone has come across any products that actually work.

Do you have any experience with tightening this skin? What ingredients should I look for to target tightening skin and not just a good face cream?

I use all my skincare down my neck and decollete as everyone states to do so to be prevent premature aging. I believe this has a bit more of a stretch mark look to it instead of the dreaded chicken neck, LOL! I am definitely seekimg some recommendations. Thanks for the help!

Neck Skincare?

𝐂𝐨𝐧'𝐬 
▫Very very light scent that dissipates quickly
▫Took quite a few pumps to start dispensing, but works fine once it started


“I received this product for free from Picky and By Wishtrend in exchange for my honest review.”

By Wishtrend's Vitamin A-mazing Bakuchiol Night Cream: 
This cream is lovely to look at, and coincidentally matches the yellow and purple airless pump container. It has a very silky finish that absorbs fast, leaving the skin extremely soft with no sticky or tackiness to the touch.

The cream leaves your skin feeling very moisturized, and on lazy days it can replace your moisturizing step. It is formulated that beginners to well-aging products can use, but good enough that experienced users will continue to use. It’s key ingredients are Bakuchiol and Retinal. These ingredients are great for helping with fine lines, wrinkles, dullness, and uneven texture. 

𝙃𝙤𝙬 to use: I recommend using at night right before you put on your moisturizer or can use in place of your moisturizer. I was able to use it safely around my eyes, and had no irritation issues at all. You can start with once or twice a week and build up applications as your skin allows. I have combo skin and feel this really can be used with all skin types because of how gentle this product seems to be. 

𝐏𝐫𝐨'𝐬 
▫️Very Moisturizing with a light creamy consistency/texture 
▫️Fun yellow color
▫Leaves skin soft and glowing 
▫Suitable for all skin types including sensitive 
▫An airtight container to keep the product stable
▫The formulation and other added ingredients such as niacinamide, centella asiatica extract, and ceramides are just a few appealing items if this cream

🥰Overall I would repurchase this product. I find it very gentle, but effective. I have only been using for a short period of time, but have found that the dullness to my skin is slowly becoming brighter. I found it to work well with other products, and I will continue to use with hopes of having improvements to my skin texture, pores, and elasticity, only time will tell!

▫Both products do have a scent I definitely could do without it. I am able to cover it up when I apply my moisturizer.
▫️Serum has a bit of an issue dispensing from the dropper due to its consistency 


“I received this product for free from Picky and SOME BY MI in exchange for my honest review.” 

SOME BY MI's Retinol Intense Reactivating Serum: The serum definitely has a thicker viscosity, which I do not mind. It absorbs very well. This is supposed to reduce signs of aging and boost skin elasticity. The serum is infused retinal and bakuchiol. I have only been using for a while so I have not noticed full benefits, but I am hopeful. I have been able to use everyday and have not noticed any side effects that retinol usually gives.

SOME BY MI's Retinol Intense Advanced Triple Action Eye Cream: The cream is a bit of a thick gel like consistency. It leaves the skin silky and smooth to the touch. The tip of the simple purple design is very convenient for dispensing product and I keeps it well controlled. This is supposed to reduce signs of aging, remove dark circles and soften fine lines. I found it made my skin extremely soft after the use of this product. I have not been able to use it long enough to feel the affects of the product, but hopefully with time I will. 

𝙃𝙤𝙬 to use: I have combo skin and found I use it daily during my active/serum stage and the eye cream last. Although I only used it for a bit I do feel like they could be used on multiple types of skin without irritation. 

𝐏𝐫𝐨'𝐬 
▫️Eye cream consistency is great with a gel like lotion
▫️Pretty packaging with nice heavy glass on serum
▫️Eye cream has a lovely dispensing tip
▫️Both products absorb well into skin

🥰I would repurchase if the product ends up working as claimed. I would however need a bit more time to give a full review, but as first impressions go, I give it a 👍🏼.

▫I didn't find anything bad about this product in general, except it has a luxurious heavy glass bottle that if you were to travel may be a downside, but I do not consider this to be a deal breaker 

“I received this product for free from Picky and Dr. Ceuracle in exchange for my honest review.”       

Vegan Kombucha Tea Essence: 
It has a very luxurious finish that absorbs fast leaving the skin extremely soft and supple, leaving the skin bright and glowing

This is a vegan cream essence that has a milky creamy feel. When it first goes on it starts off almost feeing a bit oily, not greasy. It just leaves your skin feeling real soft. It is safe for all skin types including sensitive skin. It’s key ingredients are Kombucha Tea Extract, fermented black tea, vitamin B, Camellia Sinensis Leaf, Saccharomyces Ferment Filtrate, and Schisandra Chinensis Fruit. These ingredients detoxifies toxins in body and fills up nutrition and hydration for the balanced, healthy looking complexion.

𝙃𝙤𝙬 to use: Shake well to combine all ingredients until it becomes a creamy milk color. I use a generous amount in my hand right after my cleanser in the morning and night. I sometimes apply a second layer if I am needing that extra layer of hydration. It can be used with a cotton pad, but I found the best results were straight out of the bottle and pat into the skin.

𝐏𝐫𝐨'𝐬 
▫️This is multifunctional as an toner/essence, light moisturizer, and or serum (perfect for the lazy skincare user)
▫️Nourishes & moisturizes the skin w/o it feeling heavy, sticky, or oily/greasy
▫️Vegan, cruelty free with eco friendly packaging with a nice stopper to keep from leaking

▫The dropper has a bit of trouble extracting the serum, takes a few squeezes to extract enough to distribute on the face
▫I feel the stopper is a bit hard to squeeze for someone with joint/arthritis issues
