Does anyone have any alternative skincare hacks? I have a few.
1. Shea Moisture Bamboo Charcoal Moisturizer. 
I get heat rash in Summer and strangely in Winter because I wear tight pants (leggings and Fair Isle pants). I've found that this Moisturizer does a great job in keeping my skin perfect and also providing some relief from the heat rash.
2. AOA Squalane Balm instead of Vaseline to pack down skincare at night. 
I love my Squalane Balm. If I put some on over my sleep mask or over my night cream I wake up so much better looking.  Lol
3. Facetory's 50 face mask bundle.
I am doing a face mask a week and love love it.
Anyone else?

Alternative Skincare Hacks

I love my Laneige, The Créme Shop and all the rest. What is your favorite K-Beauty brand and product?

Mine is the Laneige Cica Sleeping Mask.

Korean Skincare Must Haves

I really loved everything about it. I have found that with Asian skincare when switching from American brands to Korean or Japanese, that I have a tiny breakout of 1 small pimple. It retreats after it's head is reared the first day then it goes away.  I do have to say that with the P!rem it was not as irritated nor was it as long in leaving.

This is a total Holy Grail product! This changes your skin from dull and desert-like to hydrated and gorgeous. Just one application and I could see the huge difference! It is so cool and creamy. When they say it is a "watery-gel pudding" they mean it. It literally looks like a Fluffy pudding. You can't feel anything while it's on, no thickness, no oil, just lovely enveloping moisture.

This is heavily perfumed and the scent is kind of cloying. The formula is quite thick and the application requires you to put on a coat of it. After rolling with a stone roller or just having it on, it kind of separates and the oil is hard to deal with. I used this at night and would wake up with neck blemishes. I&#39;m I my 40s! I don&#39;t need neck pimples. Lol

This cream is so thick and creamy. I got a Citron gemstone roller to roll my neck with the cream. I enjoy rolling the cream in and can see a difference in the tone of my skin. Like all &quot;Confidence &quot; products, it really really works. I recommend this highly.

The only thing bad about this product is that the device that cleans the dropper before it comes out of the bottle sometimes allows so much air in that you get air in the dropper. It is harder to get a full dropper-ful. Oh yeah, bigger bottles for less money or free to me, lol. Other than that, it&#39;s great!

This nutritive Serum is so hydrating and so amazing. I have very very dry skin and I use this as the base of my looks. The Purple Cabbage extract from the special Purple Cabbage grown on Korea&#39;s Jeju Island, a renowned gorgeous place to see, (recently made slightly famous by having a mention or two in a wildly popular streaming show Squid Game) and a place where the micro-climate and the local vegetation has not been touched by people cross breeding plants for genetic sustainability for large groups of people. What does that mean? The Purple Cabbage on Jeju Island is grown from Old Generation Cabbage. The kind of vegetation that was medicine to those that came before us.
So what? What does that have to do with skin? Well, the extract with the strength of the Jeju Island Cabbage is so full of antioxidants and good &quot;stuff&quot; that when suspended in a Serum by our friends at Serumkind, it makes a wonderful Serum that hydrates, moisturizes all day (which is rare) almost like it&#39;s renewing its moisture hours after application, it goes on so smooth and lovely and just one dropper-ful is enough to do your face, neck and chest. I put a dropper-ful in my hands, rub them together then apply. It is so beautiful and I can see the difference right away.
I see you Serumkind. You did a good thing and your research and outreach department finding rare items that pack a skincare punch is really good. Please give us more...

It's not big enough. Lol. No I'm buying the big one next time. The tea tree smell may put people off. The fact that there is no foaming may put people off, but it is a non-foaming balm cleanser. I have found nothing wrong with it. 

This is an amazing product. The small size is only $1 and it us so worth it. I use it because I have very dry skin, but also because I use black eyelash glue. Sometimes oil doesn't get the eyelash glue off, this balm does.
All I do is put the balm all over my face and neck and it hardly takes any of it. I rub it over my makeup and rinse off and there isn't a trace of my hard to budge lipstain or eyeliner or anything left! I have had it a month now and it is barely used. So easy to travel with and feels amazing. Non drying and my skin feels like butter.

Sadly I never know when the product is completely off my skin. It is a soft and very silky product that leaves the skin soft and silky. Since the effect is in essence the cleanser, it is difficult to tell what is the bonus of the cleanser&#39;s nutrition in the skin and whether the cleanser is off the skin. I have, one or two times, rinsed my face too much and over dried it.

I really enjoy using this cleanser. I do use it only after using a Nourishing oil to remove all of my makeup. This cleanser is very creamy and it foams up rather than soaping up and it seems to aerate my skin. It cleans well and leaves no residue and has an added benefit of leaving my skin soft and soothed even if I don&#39;t race to moisturuize the second I step from the shower. My dry skin enjoys it and I do too.
