@PrettyPaint I've tried so many things for my dark circles.  Creams, prescriptions, concealers and colour correctors... nothing ever really worked, and they needed so much concealer and corrector that it always looked obvious.  It's lovely genetics lol.  The filler has helped a lot.  They're still dark, but they're so much more manageable!  I've already pre paid during a sale for my next filler session (they said 6 months to a year).  I may try PRP at some point as well.  I'm all about it now seeing how good the filler worked. 

[PrettyPaint]

I'm sorry that I'm so slow to reply @missjeanie. I'm so intrigued by this. Is PRP platelet-rich plasma? Let me know if you give it a try. No corrector or concealer totally works for me, so I wonder if filler would save money in the long run. I feel like I'm constantly trying each and every product that comes out...haha.

[missjeanie]

Yes, @PrettyPaint That's the PRP they were suggesting to me.  I'll likely try it at some point, but I still have another filler pre paid so I'll likely go with that at least once more before switching.  They told me they like to try the filler first, that not everyone needs the PRP.  No concealer or corrector had ever worked for me before either.  I also had hollows under my eyes so the filler kind of smoothed things out as well as helping with the discolouration.  I paid about 250$ Canadian with a sale they were running, and in my opinion it's wroth it.  I feel like I tried every concealer under the sun and was always hoping for more.  Concealer frankly just wasn't cutting it and I doubt that any new one ever would.  This is supposed to last between 6 months and a year.  To me, it's worth it to feel better about myself and more confidant.  Now I still use concealer, because it's not like I'm a whole new face, but it's remarkable the difference in my eyes.  My SO/person in my life says they don't really notice a big difference but he also said that he didn't think they were so bad in the first place (it's always us were trying to please no?). I feel like now if I wear a medium to full coverage foundation I could likelkly get away with no concealer, with my usual tinted moisturizer or tinted SPF, I still need it.  If you have any questions, please feel free to ask anytime!

Guess photos aren't allowed on BIC for me today ?

[eshoe]

Hope they are now, @missjeanie! Sorry to hear you’ve been having so many issues posting🤨

eta ok I just scrolled up (I’m going backwards) and see you are able to post now, yay!

[missjeanie]

And Bic is loading wayyyy better today than the other day too @eshoe !  I end up frustrated and give up quite easily when things don't load lol. 

[eshoe]

Me too, @missjeanie - me too🙁 It’s much better today, though!

[missjeanie]

Today feels like a BIC miracle @eshoe lol

With my move I had been all over the place with my skincare and masking. Well, I gave this mask a go the other night and I noticed my skin calm down even the next morning. Clearly I need to use more tea tree masks! 

 

[itsfi]

The results on this one sound wonderful @l8totheparty! 😍 Did this have a strong tea tree oil scent to it? 

[haleyvvvv]

Glad this mask worked so well, @l8totheparty!! I hope your move is going smoothly!!

[eshoe]

I’m also in the camp of not knowing tea tree helps to calm, @l8totheparty - good to know! Hope your move has gone smoothly and things are getting settled for you.

[ShortErica]

You'll get back into the groove @l8totheparty. Sounds like a good one but I got to agree with @Shosh85 that I can't do a strong tea tree scent.

[Shosh85]

@l8totheparty  I don't love the Tea Tree scent, but I do love the benefits of it! Glad to hear this one turned out great! 😃

[PrettyPaint]

@l8totheparty  Oh, nice! I have always just associated tea tree oil with clearing blemishes, but that's great that it can have soothing effects too.

[sprocketta]

I'm not into masking, but thought of all you folks when I saw this...

 

[eshoe]

HA @sprocketta that’s impressive🤣

[Shosh85]

@sprocketta  Haha! I love it! 😂

The multi-masking theme is perfect for my mood right now. Last night I used the watermelon mask for the first time. Had kept it in the fridge before applying so it felt really nice on my skin. I just used a very thin layer to test this mask for my very sensitive skin. I'm on the fence about this mask. I have been using the Youth To The People Dream Mask for the last couple of weeks and love the results. This one felt very different. Didn't irritate my skin but just didn't have the same glow as YTTP mask and my skin felt a little dry. I will give the Glow Recipe a fair chance and use it again for the next few nights and probably use more product. Also avocado melt eye mask and Laneige lip mask to complete my overnight skincare masks. I also wore my foot mask overnight. Love the way my feet feel in the morning when I wear these overnight. Today I'm multi-masking for the fun of it. Pink clay mask (one of my favourite clay masks. My skin is so soft and zero redness after using), followed by a moisturizing mask, a freezing sheet mask and then an eye mask.

[haleyvvvv]

Wow, those are a lot of masks, @ladyassassin!! I love those SC feet masks. That Caudalie mask is on my to try list. How do you find it?

[eshoe]

Wow, nice masking sessions, @ladyassassin! The Youth To The People Superberry Hydrate + Glow Dream Mask with Vitamin C 2 oz/ 59 mL is a favorite around here, and it’s easy to understand why. I’ve tried the Glow Recipe Watermelon + AHA Glow Sleeping Mask 2.7 oz/ 80 mL and found that as much as I loved the scent, it didn’t do much for my skin (sadly). My skin never feels dry with the YTTP, either.
