Hi! My name is Emily, and I'm new to BIC. I'm also a skincare lover, though it's kind of embarrassing because I'm so into skincare but my skin isn't even that good haha.  I started using Retin-A about a month ago, so my skin has been really sensitive lately and I've had to be very careful in selecting what other products go on my face.  If anyone has any tips on surviving the adjustment phase for tretinoin I would love to hear any stories or tips 🙂 

And responding to the original question of the thread: If I could splurge... I guess I've already splurged this holiday season, whoops! I bought the 0.5 oz La Mer soft cream because it makes me face so soft and happy, and I was having some real skin sadness because of the aforementioned Retin-A.  No regrets, but I probably won't be repurchasing from that line for a while... I guess my ultimate splurge would be just to buy everything La Mer - the tonic, treatment lotion, regenerating/revitalizing serums, and full-sized soft cream.

Hi I'm Anna! I'm new! I love skincare! If I could splurge on skincare I'd have to go with...all brands! A few of my favorites are Peter Thomas Roth, Josie Maran, Skinfix, Perricone MD, Mario Badescu Vitamin C serum and tons more. I want to try Tatcha skincare line. If anyone loves Tatcha please help me find one of your favorite products. I do use The Silk Canvas for my eyeshadow. I'm 46 years old. It works wonders! Thank you for letting me join your group!

@Justlikeawoman welcome ♥️

Welcome to BIC @Justlikeawoman ! You’re among many skincare lovers here. 🙂 I’ll be 48 this month and I’ve spent the last 2 years overhauling and refining my skincare routine, thanks to my skin suddenly rebelling against many of the products I used for decades. If you try any Tatcha skincare products, I hope they work for you!

Hi @Justlikeawoman

You are definitely in the right place! Welcome to the BIC!

Welcome to BIC! I love Tatcha products as well. My favorite is the Tatcha Luminous Deep Hydration Lifting Mask 4 x 0.68 oz/ 20 mL masks. It's a great, luxury mask for deeply hydrating your skin during the winter months. <333
