Trying HA PDO Screw Threads

 After successfully using the HA PDO mono threads, next thread on my list was the screw version of the 30 gauge x 25 mm. Because the thread is wrapped around the needle, it means there is more thread for the body to break down which has the positive effect of collagen building, plus with the added benefit of being dipped in hyaluronic acid means slightly more volume. 

I considered repeating the areas I threaded with the monos, being eyes and lips, but opted to put the full pack of 20 under my eyes. The hollows are pretty deep which means they are going to need a lot of work to build enough volume to make a noticeable difference. Aside from filler, (being a newbie I have no plans to use) one of the best ways to do this is with threads, although I'm aware that it's going to be a looong road ahead.

I mentioned when I used the HA monos that there was some resistance, well the screw threads are more so. At times it took me some pushing to puncture my skin, not something you want near your eyes, lol. I didn't feel in any danger of causing serious damage, but it was a little disconcerting. It also took some fiddling to get the right plane because of the surface difference between my high cheek bones to the under eye valleys, lol. I just took my time.

I did plan to treat my nasolabial folds and marionette lines with some other threads I have, but I was done after the 20, so decided to shelve that procedure for the time being. An advantage of being DIY is I can do these thimgs on my own schedule in the comfort of my own home.

BH Cosmetics Carli Bybel Deluxe Palette and Giveaway

Image
When BH Cosmetics released the original Carli Bybel palette I was tossing up whether I was going to purchase it or not. Sure, it was pretty with lovely neutral shades, but I was trying to cut down my eye shadow palette buying to only palettes that I really, really had to have and I wasn't convinced that was the case. When the Carli Bybel Deluxe version was released containing 15 shadows and 6 highlighters as opposed to the original which had 10 eye shadows and 3 highlighters, I had to have it. I went as far as pre-ordering the palette before it was even released. The sneak peek swatches had won me over! Taken from BH Cosmetics - "This palette features 11 original shades plus 10 chic new shadows and highlighters in buttery blendable formulas with staying power." The palette is a large square with magnet closure and complete with a cardboard sleeve. The palette is so pretty, I love the rose gold writing on the quilted pintuck background design. Opening the palet...

BYS Berries Palette

Image
I have bought from the brand BYS in the past, but I can't say I've actually sought out anything from them. Well, that was until I saw swatches popping up on my Instagram feed of the Berries palette.  It's a 12 pan palette and has a similar vibe going on to the much loved and raved about ABH Modern Renaissance palette. Of course, I do not own the pricier ABH palette, but I just had to have the Berries palette. Taken from BYS - "BYS Berries Eye Shadow Palette features an array of 12 expertly chosen, highly pigmented matte and metallic eye shadows. The 12 piece palette comes housed in a modern, embossed tin. featuring a mirror and 2 dual end applicators." The tin packaging of this palette is really cute, it reminds me of the Naked 2 and 3 palettes. It is a little bulky, but I like it. Let's take a peek inside Oh yes, I'm all about those warm orange and plum tones. There are 3 shimmery shades and the rest are matte. Here's the sw...

It's Skin Power 10 Formula VC Effector

Image
I was once again sucked into buying some bargain products from Ozsale . Part of my order was 4 serums from the brand It's Skin. Being a Korean brand I really wanted to try some products. I couldn't find a lot of information about It's Skin online, but the Power 10 Formula range sounded pretty good. I really wanted to try them all at once, but to get an idea of how each serum performed I restrained myself by using one serum at a time. The first one I tried was the VC Effector. The serum is no longer available on Ozsale, but I found it for sale on Beauty Bay - "A clarity improving skin serum designed for all skin types. Enriched with a blend of naturally derived, active ingredients, the It's Skin Power 10 Formula VC Effector worfs effectively to reduce the appearance of discolouration and dark spots. With a lightweight serum texture its quickly absorbed into the skin offering brightening and lightening effects, whilst simultaneously suppressing melanin prod...
