I had my Wishtrend shopping cart ready and was in the middle of filling out the Picky form to convert my points over for $50 credit, and then all of a sudden time changed and now it’s too late to use my picky points to shop. I’m devastated! 

I kept trying to do this earlier a couple of days ago, but my whole family of 5 has been battling what we thought was covid (turned out to be the flu!) for the last 2 weeks. To add to that I’ve been losing ig followers since I’ve been too sick to post/ or too busy caring for my sick family. Doesn’t it seem that all of the bad things happen all at the same time?

I’m so sorry to complain. I’m not usually someone to whine and mope about, but this bummed me out. Thanks for listening!

—> If you did/ did not get to make a purchase with your points, how about tell me what you bought (or have on your wishlist for next time)??


{EDITED TO ADD:  Picky is just the absolute best. They reached out to me to give me some assistance before I could even finish typing message to them. Thank you, Picky, for always treating us so well!}

I’m so sad! {Wishtrend/ Picky Points}

As much as I love and adore Picky (I spend what too much time here, haha), there’s just one single thing that I think could be changed and that’s this:

I noticed something odd whenever I went back in to edit a review of mine—> I noticed the picture in my Picky review did not look quite like what I submitted. It appeared to be smaller, as if it was cropped randomly to fit their square picture size. If I would have known this would happen in all of the reviews/ pictures I’ve submitted, then I would have either chosen different pics or cropped them myself. I try really hard to take good photos of the product, packaging, and texture so it is a little frustrating when the picture I’ve taken & submitted has been changed/ cropped. That means the aesthetic I worked so hard for doesn’t shine through, plus I think the brands would prefer the original pics... 

QUESTION:  Are your review photos being cropped automatically after you submit them?


I figured I would post this here because Picky is so great at listening to us if we have an issue or if we want to give feedback.
—> Dear Picky: Will you either 1.) Give us the option to crop/ enlarge our pics within your app so we can fit your photo size requirements, or 2.) Allow all photos (regardless of size/ shape) to fit without you automatically cropping them? It would make for better brand & review photos! :)

Picky Crops Our Review Pics?

Hello! I have always faithfully used toners and been happy, until I began using a Shiseido essence over 10 years ago (once it was discontinued I went back to regular toners because essences were not as prominent then). Since then I’ve found some essences I’ve really liked in the last year to 2 years, one being the Peach & Lily Wild Dew Treatment Essence. 

PLEASE SHARE WITH ME:  what Essence recommendations do you have for me? {I’m 45 with very few fine lines, normal to dry skin with a little bit larger pores in my T-zone. I get shiny there, but not oily.}

Thank you in advance and I appreciate your input!

Help me! Please leave me some Essence suggestions!!

I found no faults&#47; cons for this product.

This is a low irritant &amp; mild acid cream-to-foam cleanser that is thick, creamy, and lightly moisturizing. Upon the addition of water it creates a creamy, foamy lather that cleanses my skin beautifully. It rinses clean to soothe &amp; never strip my skin. I quite enjoyed this and will repurchase.

The glassy appearance looks more like im shiny&#47; oily.

The scent is intoxicating &amp; the balm feels heavenly on my hands. It feels nice on the skin, but might feel a little too thick to use it under makeup. So far I’ve only been using it as my last skincare step.
.
This balm does lend a shiny, glass-like look to my face and it makes my face feel quite soft. The downside is the glassy appearance can also translate as an oil slick on my face. I had high hopes for this Glassy Skin Balm, but it fell a tad short. I’ll probably use the rest of it on my upper arms and legs insyead of on my face.

It can pill up sometimes if you don’t let your skincare dry first, and then be sure to let the spf dry before applying makeup or it may pill.

I’ve been gone on vacation and Versed’s Guard’s Up Daily Mineral Sunscreen has been HUGE in keeping my face + neck protected from the sun when I’m on the beach, at the pool, shopping, or just hanging out. Plus it also guards against pollution and blue light. We love a broad spectrum product that ticks all the boxes! Guard’s Up feels like a creamy, lightweight moisturizer, and I love that it does not leave a chalky white caste like most mineral sunscreens I’ve used in the past. It’s a winner!

The @touchinsolus Pretty Filter Waterful Glow Cream is one of my more recent finds. It gives you glowing, beautiful skin while minimizing pores&#47; fine lines &amp; leaving you with a filter-like finish. I love wearing it alone, but I have to say it has also greatly improved my makeup application and finished look. Pretty Filter Waterful Glow Cream feels like a fluffy gel-cream hybrid and is quickly absorbed. It drenched my skin in intense moisture thanks to Hyaluronic Acid, plant oils, Squalane, and Shea Butter, yet it did not leave me shiny or oily at all.

Bonus? The hydrolyzed collagen made my skin feel more plump and firm, which my almost 45 year old skin greatly appreciates. K-Beauty for the win!

If you leave it on too long it may cause an acne spot or two, depending upon your skin type.

That glass jar! 😍That texture.🥰 I’m so in love with my Honey Potion mask from  Farmacy! ✨🍯💚 It’s a thick, luxurious, mask that warms when it’s massaged in. If y’all want refreshed~renewed~revitalized skin then consider giving Honey Potion a go. It always leaves me with the healthiest glow when I’m finished!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Here’s a rundown of the ‘good for you’ ingredients:
•Honey blend- delivers moisture, nourishment, + antioxidants.
•Propolis + Royal Jelly- chock full of amino acids to promote skin renewal for a younger visage while leaving it moisturized.
•Essential B vitamins- smooths dry skin and promotes renewal.
•Glycerin- draws moisture in to deeply hydrate for soft, supple skin.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Yes, this is all true and no hype! Honey Potion is a total powerhouse that really works to deliver all that it promises. I’ve seen incredible results from this mask, and think it would be an excellent addition to your routine. I think it really amps up the performance of my other Farmacy products- Honeymoon Glow, Honey Grail, Honey Drop, Sleep Tight, Clean Bee, &amp; Green Clean- that I use in conjunction with Honey Potion. I still need to add a few more Farmacy goodies to my line up, I know. There’s so much I want!
