LOL so far I have and used the Elemis Pro-Collagen Firming Retinol Alternative Renewal Serum 0.5 oz / 15 ml (I really love this... which is bad because this is pricey and im not rich enough for this. oh and look! It's retinol alternative 😉) and I have the beekman collagen booster. I use these two alternatively and my skin definitely feels firmer (either that or my face is getting fatter and plumper). Thank God both of these are boosters and only need a few drops vs a whole dropper! I was just gifted the Paula's Choice Pro Collagen Multi-Peptide Booster 0.67 oz / 20 mL which I haven't opened yet (I honestly think it'll take me forever to go through the two boosters above so may need to give this away) Ahhh. It makes sense. I think I mildly know what it's like because as you said, it's somewhat normal at a low level. I do get mild dryness and redness which is why I only use retinol at night if I know I won't be wearing makeup the following day! I usually slap on the LANEIGE Cica Sleeping Mask and find that that helps a lot or the following day, I use the Tower 28 Beauty SOS Daily Skin Barrier Redness Recovery Moisturizer 1.86 oz / 55 ml . Well, it's great either way tho because there are so many retinol alternatives now!

Oh I will!!! Thank you for the link! I’ll go add it there now!

@Samtian, yeah, I could have been a mini distribution center for sheet masks. 🤣 You want a soothing sheet mask, I got that. Hydration your aim, here you go. Looking for that unique material or hard-to-find ingredient, tell me what you're looking for; I probably have it here ... somewhere. 🙄 Or, at least I did. Brands have gotten better with these masks in tubs. Many hold an amount that generally corresponds to a month's worth. Before, there would be brands (and there may still be) that put out these multi-mask packs with 27 sheets or 35 sheets. Because, you know, there's so many months with 27 or 35 days in it. 🤔

I was going to say that that’s a good one I think she should get that to

It is very good , it wasn't available so I purchased the Amika product which I now love. @CynthieLu

I'm not seeing many sales but I'm hopefully they'll turn up if I do some sleuthing. 😉 Your right, there are a good amount of sales atm. My emails are going off with deal alerts directly from brands. 🤩

Congrats on your haul, feel free to post it in the current haul thread Magical May Hauls 2024 🎩✨ @AllieSephora

@alexil4 The Maybelline powder is really good. The Milani concealer was not a favorite of mine, however.

@ET2023 happy birthday! And great haul! You can also post in Magical May Hauls 2024 🎩✨ thread if you want 😊
