I just got the TirTir Matcha PDRN Calming Cream on April 6, and just used it up two days ago, on May 17. So it only took me one month and 11 days to use up 50 ml (1.7 fl oz) of face cream. I used it on my face morning and night and on my neck every night.
Is it normal to use up 50 ml or moisturizer in a month, or am I using too much?
They're usually grape flavored in the US.
Browsing YesStyle is so annoying now with all these bundles. I can't see actual new products now, because the new arrivals page is just loaded with bundle packs now. It's ok for them to offer bundle packs to save a few dollars, but I just wish they didn't have them as seperate listings. Anyone else annoyed by this?
I've been lurking vindictaratecelebs these days (yes, I know), and something I noticed there is that they tend to rate Asians whom most would consider unattractive very high, while they tend to rate those who fit Eastern beauty standards very well low. And it isn't just that particular sub either; I've noticed that all over Reddit. Heck, not even just on Reddit, but on other platforms, I've noticed that Asian-American influencers who are more popular with white/non-Asian people are often not very good-looking (no offense).
In real life, whenever I'm in an area with a low Asian population, I get lots of (non-Asian) male attention. But as soon as I step a foot into an area with a high Asian population, I turn invisible. Throughout my entire life, I had only ever received compliments on my physical appearance from non-Asian people (albeit, idk if they're serious or just white lies). When I was a kid, my school was 70% Asian, and I was constantly bullied for my looks and flat out called "ugly" by my peers. But when I moved to a different metro area and enrolled in a majority-white school district as a tween, it was a complete 180! All the sudden, I was being hit on constantly and receiving compliments on my appearance. And of course, none of it came from fellow Asian-Americans.
However, when I look at Reddit threads along the lines of "why do white men like Asian women?", they always just list stereotypes about how (they think) Asian women are more "feminine", "conservative", "white-worshipping", etc and never anything about their looks aside from "usually not fat".
So do white or non-Asian people really find "ugly" Asians attractive, or are they just face blind when it comes to Asians?
There's this beauty trend in China called "mixed race makeup" where they try to make themselves look half-white with cosmetics. There are even makeup products there that are advertised to achieve a "Eurasian" makeup look. Apparently, this was also a trend in Japan 2 decades ago.
I'm sure if white people were trying to make themselves look Asian with makeup, they'll be called "racists". So I'm curious to know what the average westerner (of any race) think of non-white people who deliberately tries to make themselves look more white.
Hey, so I've been very into Chinese makeup for the past two years, because they have very unique and good quality products that can't be found elsewhere. However, I recently learned about a beauty trend there called "mixed race makeup" where they basically do everything they can to look as white as possible. The product pictured above is advertising itself to give you a "Eurasian mixed look", which makes no fucking sense for a lip gloss (like, how tf would a LIP GLOSS make me look white, lol). I am just so disgusted by the blatant white worshipping and internalized racism in C-beauty that I might as well go back to using K-beauty, even though I hate how K-beauty has been ripping off C-beauty in recent years and passing them off as Korean inventions to westerners (e.g. Fwee's Pudding Pots are a rip off of Into You's Canned Lip Muds, Coringco and ccam bbak copied Chinese pre-glued lash clusters, Glow and Wakemake copied Amortal's marshmallow cushion puffs). But at least Korean makeup brands aren't telling me to look less Asian and more white (at least not that I know of, but let me know if they do).
But maybe I'm just taking things out of context, as I don't use Chinese social media and only heard about this trend via Anglophone social medium. So what do we all think about the Chinese "mix race" makeup trend? If anyone here can provide me some context about it, please do!
