Feeling bougie

Hi! Kat here, and I'm brand new to Picky.. but not to reviews. I've been playing around on this app for a couple of days and I absolutely love the sense of camaraderie around here! I've already learned so much from you all and my wishlist has gotten huge from reading your discussions. I'm really glad there is an app full of people who enjoy skin care as much as I do!

My questions are... 

What should I be doing that I might not know about? 

What do you like most about this app?

How often do you, personally, get free products to review?

And anything else you think I might need to know.

Thanks in advance!

What are your holy grail products? The ones you refuse to live without, that have made a huge change in your skin, and you just truly enjoy using? Let me know why you love them so much. Extra points if its rated holy grail here on Picky!

 I use Purito Deep Sea Pure Water cream over my tretinoin and it has been a GAME CHANGER! Tretinoin is known to dry out skin and this counteracts that so well. I love the consistency of this cream. It is marked as a holy grail item on Picky.

I also love Timeless 20% Vitamin C + E Ferulic Acid Serum. From the 2nd day I started using it I noticed a huge change in my dark spots. After using it for 2 months I barely have any left! I love how watery it is because it sinks right into my skin and I can still use other serums on top of it. There might be better ones out there though and I will definitely take recommendations... but the price point is perfect for such an effective vitamin C.

Let's hear about your Holy Grail skin care! I'm always looking for good product reccomendations ❤

Holy Grail products?

I don't think I will be able to fully express how much I love this stuff, but I'm going to try. I started my anti-aging skin care journey with tretinoin. I had no idea what I was doing and it ate my face up to the point I didn't want to use it again. After doing some research, I figured out I wasn't moisturizing correctly with it. I was using fancy dancy skin care chock full of irritating ingredients like fragrance. So I immediately switched to Cerave. My face handled it a little better, but was still pretty dry. A friend of mine mentioned that I should be using niacinamide along with the tretinoin to help stop the dryness. I tried several different brands (they were all too sticky) before I landed on 3 Purito - Deep Sea Pure Water Cream 50ml Us Seller. It was a GAME CHANGER! Not only is it super cheap ($16), the texture is amazing! And it stopped ALL the dryness the tretinoin was giving me. My nighttime routine is now tretinoin on a clean and dry face, followed by this and then a layer of Cerave. It's at the top of my rebuy list. I'm on my 3rd tube already ❤

Do not buy this from Amazon. It goes bad quickly, so you want to order straight from their website for the freshest serum. You can definitely tell a difference!

Ladies! When I tell you I can NOT live without this product, I am not exaggerating at all. I bought this with my own money and will continue to do so every time I get close to empty. This product has brightened my skin so much it's almost hard to believe it myself. I could tell a difference on the 3rd day of using it.

I've used other Vitamin C serums and nothing has come close to #timelessskincare. I use it every morning, right after toner. It's more watery than serum so it immediately soaks in, smells great, and allows my other products to sink in right over it.

If you've been looking for a product that gives quick results look no further. The price point is on point also, so pamper yourself! @timelesshaskin

The price is pretty steep, and I can't really tell it's doing much except being a great moisturizer. Since I don't own the rest of the Prestige line I can't really judge that because I'm sure it interacts well with other Dior products.

I need to start off by thanking Influenster and Dior for sending me this #Voxbox because I probably never would have even tried this line without sampling it first just because of the cost. This bottle of Dior Prestige La Micro-Huile De Rose Advanced Serum retails at $285 for the small bottle. I don't usually purchase such expensive things without trying it first. With that said, I really enjoy using this product.
My skincare routine is all about moisturizing and anti-aging, and this certainly helps with keeping my face feeling moisturized. I start my morning by washing my face, then using Timeless Vitamin C, followed by this Dior serum, and lastly Cerave moisturizer. Since I use Tretinoin at night I only use this serum in the morning.
The first thing you will notice is how beautiful the bottle and serum is. The 10,000 micro-pearls of roses are absolutely gorgeous. After spending a bit too long appreciating how pretty is, you finally pump it onto your fingers. Immediately you are engulfed with the most pleasant smell of roses. I seriously love the fragrance it emits. You will also notice that one pump doesn't produce much serum. With your face damp, you start applying it and realize quickly how far that small amount goes. I only use 3 small pumps for my entire face and neck each day, which translates to this lasting a very long time. The texture is a mix between a facial oil and a nice serum. I love the way it sinks into my skin, and the smell makes me feel extremely bougie with every application. With more than 20 micronutrients essential to the strength and beauty of the skin (minerals, trace elements, omega-3, vitamin E) I can tell it is helping to strengthen my skin barrier, and keeping my face moisturized all day long. 

I am now considering purchasing the moisturizer to see how they interact with each other. 4 stars because the price is a bit much, but overall I truly look forward to using this every morning. And anything that gets me excited to wash my face is worth it in my book. @diorbeauty

 Be very careful to not get this in your eyes. It does burn, so I took 1 star off for that.

I am on the hunt for a new sunscreen! I have bought 15 new ones recently, so I thought I'd start reviewing them each day. Today I used Neutrogena® Invisible Daily Defense Face Serum Sunscreen SPF60+++++++. I took this picture 15 minutes after applying with no makeup over it, and as you can see, it definitely leaves a dewy look on your face. It applies beautifully and is easy to work into skin with zero white cast. I have not experienced any pilling, which is great for me because I reapply at least 4 times a day. I personally don't care for the dewy look, I prefer a matte finish, but I will definitely finish using this bottle. It's in my top 5 affordable sunscreens so far.
