The daily lemming

Posted by Robin on 20 June 2018 12 Comments

It makes your face thinner! Really! Plus, coffee. "Tony Moly's Latte Art Cappuccino Cream-In Scrub is a color-changing cream that takes care of a massage and keratin removal simultaneously. This scrub, with an additional massaging effect, contains the active ingredients of coffee and milk extracts, which work to remove: flaky, dry, dead skin cells and impurities from the skin, while also providing nutrition to the skin. The warm sensation produced when rubbing the color-changing scrub on the face removes impurities deep in the pores. The grains within the scrub make the skin smooth and glossy. In addition, the ingredient of peptide supplies firmness to the skin, and the ingredient of O2 Carrier Complex makes the facial contour slimmer." $17.50 for 95g at Ulta.

    Hmm….the vagaries of K beauty. By slimming, do they actually mean ‘de-puffing’ the face instead? Is this a ‘whitening’ vs. ‘brightening’ K-beaty confusion going on?

      Who knows! I love the idea of K beauty and the products always look and sound tempting, but I have a 2 step beauty routine and will probably stick with it :-)

    There’s no Ulta near me so I will check this out at the in-store Tony Moly boutique at 99 Ranch. Let’s see how the SA explains the benefits. The last time I was there, I asked what “Mayiu” is and she said horse oil (literal translation) but couldn’t explain the benefits. Actually, the moment she said horse oil, it wouldn’t have mattered what the benefits were as my face was transparently horrified and she said “but it’s not made from a horse.” Eh???

      My favorite kind of horse oil is the kind that is not made from a horse, LOL…

    So it just occurred to me to wonder if posting the lemming of the day actually helped you stopped lemming it? Like the post itself satisfies your want for the item, as it helps you get it out of your system?

      Not always, but often — it works for me like pinterest in that way, like collecting the picture of the item can be as satisfying as owning the item. But also, the posts might be more properly called “possible lemmings” or sometimes “things I have no intention of buying ever, but that sound like *someone* might want them”. And then sometimes I really want something and someone comments and says I tried that, it’s no good.

      But in general everything about blogging, over time, has helped me spend less money on perfume. I ought to start blogging about tea and clothing ;-)

        I started having that suspicion. How interesting our psychology is. And there is no reason why you can’t throw in some tea and/or clothing lemmings on this blog. I bet people would enjoy it. Didn’t the Non-Blonde used to do that?
