Has anyone here tried the Boum-Boum Milk from VIOLETTE_FR? I adore Violette Serrat’s beauty ethos. I already have the Baum Shine--the perfect highlighter and the Petal Bouche Matte 🌹--a stunning red lip color. Violette created Boum-Boum Milk to streamline skincare routines. I have sensitive skin and am prone to red blotchy flare-ups. Boum-Boum Milk supposedly hydrates skin and reduces redness. Before buying yet another skincare product, I thought I’d ask the brilliant people here on Picky. Thank you!

Boum-Boum Pow? Gotta get that?

Hello Picky Friends,

You’ve all had so many fantastic suggestions, which are always helpful when a skincare concern arises. With all the excellent product recommendations, I’d like to store those suggestions in the app. I don’t see a place for that. Is it there, and I’ve just missed it?

Many thanks,

@quaintrelling 😎

Picky App: Is there a place to store a list of products you’d like to try in future?

I have blackheads around my nose. I’ve heard some say that topical Vitamin C can exacerbate blackheads.

The CE Ferulic serum from Skinceuticals has been the longest-running product in my skincare routine. My mother is an R.N. and worked at a dermatologist’s office. The doc recommended the serum to my mom, and she, in turn, suggested it to me in my early 30s. I’ve been a devotee for nearly a decade. At first, I knew I was doing something good for my skin but didn’t understand the benefits, such as promoting collagen growth and enhancing the efficacy of sunscreen. It seems many derms point to the research supporting the Skinceuticals’ formula. Anti-aging, brightening, and defense against sun exposure, yes, please! 

I haven't found a downside to this product. I will say not all Micellar Water is created equal. The same brand, Bioderma, has a few lines of Micellar Water. When I tried the Sebum line, my face went red and blotchy. 

What's good about this product? Everything! It's great for my sensitive skin. It keeps my face calm so I can carry on with a skincare routine that allows me to add serums and creams to promote collagen production, minimize pigmentation, and generally maintain a clear complexion. 

My skin barrier is picky. Bioderma’s Sensibio Micellar Water doesn't irritate and appears to cleanse effectively. If I'm not wearing make-up, sometimes I will use this Micellar Water with a couple of Muji cut cotton pads as my full wash. If I wear makeup, this product is the key to my double cleanse.
