I'm honestly so confused! Before I joined picky, I thought combining retinol & vit C was such a brilliant idea. Game changer even. I personally was obsessed with the results I was getting. I had zero bad side effects. Then I joined this amazing community (really, I love this app. I have so much love for the bonds I've created here ❤️) and saw that it's not recommended. I'm just so damn confused, lol 😂 I know that it of course varies based on skin type and etc...but it seems like the overall idea is it's just too much at once for any skin type. But I'm still seeing brands combining the ingredients in one product, and seeing each ingredient frequently used together in many routines. I need opinions! Which is it? What do you prefer & why?

Do you prefer to apply sunscreen before you apply your foundation, or do you just use foundation with SPF in it? I tend to use SPF in my foundation because if I apply sunscreen on before my foundation I noticed that it tends to make my foundation application not as great. If you do use an SPF foundation which type you use? I'm currently using the Lancome foundation. It's pricey but in my opinion it's definitely worth the hype.

I truly have nothing negative to say about this product.

I use this product every single day. I&#39;ve tried so many eye creams but this one by far is the best. I have the darkest circles in the world and this is the only eye cream that is totally taken them away. It also moisturizes under my eye which is great because now my concealer doesn&#39;t cake. I use it twice a day and I have noticed an extreme improvement with my crow&#39;s feet as well. I&#39;ve been using this product for about 4 months now.

The application is a little bit messy I wish that there was a pump to use with the product.

I have quite a few scars on my arms and I&#39;ve been using this for about 6 months now. I see an extreme difference in the appearance of my scars in both color and texture. They are slowly fading away and I&#39;m so grateful for that. I also dab a little bit on my face to help with my hyperpigmentation.

The pump tends to get stuck but it&#39;s not a big deal.

I just use this mask tonight so I thought it was a perfect time to review it. I absolutely love the glow that this gives to my face. It&#39;s not one of those fake clothes that leaves a film on your skin, but it genuinely makes my skin glow. I also love the smell. It&#39;s one of those herbal sense and those are my favorite.

I absolutely love this toner. The price is right and it does exactly what it says it does. It&#39;s nice and simple, sometimes less is more. This gets my skin ready to soak up all the rest of my skincare routine and I truly feel like it&#39;s helped make my skin softer and also even out my skin tone.

It&#39;s just a very simple toner. There&#39;s nothing wrong with that, but for someone who&#39;s looking for more for their toner I would skip this one.

If you&#39;re looking for a solid simple toner, this is a great one to try. It smells great, it&#39;s very reasonably priced, and it&#39;s just a simple witch hazel toner that helps with the skin. It&#39;s also alcohol-free which is a huge Plus for me. There are much better toners out there, but for a beginner this is a good start.
