Skin issue: So I have whiteheads on my cheeks, chin and around the nose. Blackheads and a lot of texture. I also have hyperpigmentation. And dry skin for god's sake.
I read somewhere that if you have dry skin and still have acne issues then you are doing something wrong!
Here's my routine 
1.I use Simple oil be gone micellar water and wash my face with loreal paris hyaluronic acid face cleanser
2.Tonymoly hyaluronic toner and Cosrx Whitehead power liquid followed with snail mucin 
3.Tonymoly green vita C serum (if outdoor to help boost sunscreen)and gel moisturizer 
4.Simple kind to skin light moisturizer 
5.Aqualogica hydrate Sunscreen (if outdoor)
I also use an aha bha peel weekly
I don't know what I'm doing wrong.
Somedays the texture is improved but usually the whiteheads don't budge
My skin is overall healthier and softer but I just can't get rid of my texture!!
Please help and let me know what I'm doing wrong or how can I improve my routine 👉👈

Texture trouble!!

I have deep dark circles and smile lines around the eyes which makes me look like a sleepless zombie every morning.. I have tried numerous creams, DIYs etc. The only difference in the under eye texture was from retinol! But it didn't remove the discoloration or the deep set sunken eyes(ofc).
Is there any way to get rid of them (without surgery duh).. I'm tired of them and feel less confident in my appearance. Please help 🥺🤌

Under eye trauma

I won't call this as a product negative but the product is drying...very drying.
So one has to apply a product for extra extra hydration. Also during the initial usage..one's face might peel. But if you hydrate your skin well and seal it in with a good emollient or oil.. it's not a problem at all!

I loved this product! Here are the specifics:
1.The brightening ampoule contains 77% centella asiatica extracts which helps calm your skin.
2.The small white beads is what contains the brightening agent which easily breaks down and gives a refreshing feel. 
3.It also contains the hero ingredients - niacinamide and tranexamic acid. These ingredients are a general favourite and work amazingly on your acne and scars. 
Skin type: I have a combination skin with dry cheeks and oily t-zone which heals really fast if good hydration is provided. I have used strong ingredients before and have also used retinol..so you might say my skin is pretty used to actives but nevertheless when I applied the product initially it stung a slight bit (just a little bit that I could make it out that it was stinging) and that's it. It doesn't sting now but I think my skin got used to it.
Result: My favourite part..as of now I have been using the product for about 11 days(that's not long enough tho) and I personally have seen a bit of difference in my skin texture.. there were two pesky pimples which healed in two days after using the ampoule. Also the hyperpigmentation they left is almost gone too. So yes I believe that the product formulation works fine. But I don't believe the brightening claim (if you are talking about toning up) unless it's about giving an even skintone (which infact is true).
Warning: the ampoule is strong for those who don't use actives...so use less and use it less frequently...for example take 2 drops and use it at night...then your next dose should be after 1-2 days. This way you introduce your skin anything strong. Also it might irritate those with niacin allergies.

The scent is just too strong..and it leaves a slight whitecast
It is sticky as well
Overall I don't like the formulation..it didn't work for me (flared up my acne)

The product claims to lighten and even tone...but there's no change in my hyperpigmentation..
Instead it just gave me pus oozing pimples
And the spf... where do I even begin? It's not enough for the skin of color 

The product has fragrance which might irritate skin of colour. Also some tad risky but overall okay ingredients..if you have over sensitive skin you might want to patch test first.

Well this is a great sunscreen for skin of colour! It doesn&#39;t clog pores and as far as I know doesn&#39;t have any chemicals harmful for your skin. But the product has a bit of fragrance so it might irritate some people.
Also there&#39;s no problem in reapplying this over past applications. Honestly, I wish they put in more hydrating and skin loving ingredients. I will definately buy this product again. If you hate white casts then this is the right product for you!!

The product dries up in half an hour atmost. It does leave my skin feel supple but a bit thirsty for hydration.

The product has ceramides and is really worth trying for skin of color. The ingredients are okay but can be made better.

This product has some drying ingredients so it&#39;s not for people with dry skin.
You have to be careful with removing the product because if you try to be harsh you&#39;ll damage your skin barrier!

First of this product is good for oily&#47;combination skin.
Since it has this grainy texture it exofoliates really well. My skin feels like it was polished. I would buy this again.
