I have been using the @somebymi.official_us AHA BHA PHA 30 Days Miracle Toner for almost a year now and am ready to share my thoughts. I know when this product first released, many people thought it was gimmicky and harmful for the brand to encourgage daily exfoliation. Now this might sound terrible, but in my opinion, with how low the amounts of acids are, I think using this to exfoliate daily would be fine if your skin can handle it (even though I don't use it this way). This toner contains 0.05% AHA, 0.01% BHA, and 0.01% PHA, 2% niacinamide, and 1% tea tree water. As you can see, the percentage of acids are very low. However, I am not someone who has a lot of experience with exfoliants, so using a couple layers of this once or twice a week, I saw great improvements in terms of evening of texture, brighening hyperpigmentation, and helping the congestion in my pores. Doing just one layer, I do see very minor effects, but for nights dedicated to exfoliating, I enjoy layering. One thing that I really credit to this product is the mitigation of my hormonal acne. I noticed my hormonal acne was more infrequent and when it did come, it was smaller and would leave faster. The texture of this product is very watery and easy to apply. It has a tea tree scent that I love and don't find overpowering. I've never experienced irritation with this product, even when I applied it under my tretinoin, which is very risky, but just proves my point on how gentle this product is for me.

This cream was formulated for those with dry, irritated and damaged skin. It contains 5% D-Panthenol which has a higher penetration level compared to regular Panthenol for deeper hydration ✨ It also has 0.5% Beta-Sitosterol that is another great moisturizing ingredient that helps strengthen and repair the skin barrier! I love the texture of this cream! It's a bit heavier than a gel-type product but still's on the lighter side. Has great absorption and gives that glazed look to the skin when applied. It's not sticky and after a few minutes it settles with a matte finish. It has a mild sweet aroma that I personally like and enjoy! 💙 I like to use this as a night mask, specially on the drier patches of my skin. I highly recommend this as it is an affordable and effective option for damaged skin barrier! Plus it's vegan! 🌱🫶

First off this is so much more then a retinol serum . It also has Niacinamide which is a great ingredient to help with boosting collagen production to improve skin texture, including smoothness, fine lines and wrinkles and helps brighten and fade hyperpigmentation. Secondly , it has Panthenol, Hyaluronic acid, and Trehalose. These help to balnace the moisture . This is very helpful when use retinol , as it can cause drying and these ingredient’s will help to moisturise the skin so drynesss doesnt occur . Now on to the star of this serum , the retinol 🤩 This serum delivers , I used it for two weeks before I was ready to do my review . I started with once a day , and after a few days applied twice a day . It goes on smoothly and doesnt effect makeup you may want to apply after . I personally didnt have any issues with irritation or dryness , but I do use retinol’s frequently . For reference I am a young 44.5 year old and after useing this I have notice some real improvement on my forehead and jawline .

Bought because of one of the videos I saw on FB, about his review (with video) works well for him. I don't actually know that this was/is a hype, I just wanted something for my blackheads, especially on my T-zone. The product comes with a pump for convenience purpose (i guess, but not for me) It has mint scent and has cooling effect. It leaves my skin so cold. I was so excited to use this because of its bubble effect. The thick gel based cleanser turns into bubbles seconds after I applied it on my face. (Amazeeed) I waited for about 4minutes then massaged the bubbles on my face with slight water then rinse it thoroughly for 1 minute. I saw that my pores are actually cleaned! And was so happy with my first try with this cleanser.

Oily/Resilient

🌾 A creamy organic sunscreen containing 30% rice extract and grain fermented extracts that provide moisture and nourishment to the skin as the brand claims. SPF- and PA-tested. 📦 Packaging. In a screw cap tube similar to most toothpaste packaging. Easily dispensed. Note: Packaging could get smeary with residue of the product in hands as you replace the cap. 🧴 Key Ingredients & Benefits. Rice & grain fermented extracts that are rich in vitamins B, C, E, amino acids, and minerals to help moisturize dry skin. 💧Form & Fragrance. White cream with moderate consistency, without fragrance but with a mild scent. (Tested in a tropical, hot, humid region) 🙋🏽 Experience. Many have this as their HG. First tried this when I asked for some from my sibling who truly likes and repurchases this product. My initial impression was that since it has rice ingredient in it, it would feel or leave a powdery effect because that’s how rice grains are to touch. With actual use, this is rather the opposite, it’s moist. Does not leave white cast, does not clump, does not sting the eyes, isn’t sweatproof or waterproof, a moisturizing sunscreen. 💲 Price. ₱598 ($10.80~) per 50mL tube in Lazada PH. Buy during double day or pay day sales for discounted price or rebates. (Not a sponsored post. Bought it from my personal pocket.)

Beauty of Joseon Glow Deep Serum : rice + arbutin 🌟What it is: The rice + arbutin formula of the beauty of joseon glow deep serum is a gorgeously light serum loaded with hanbang (traditional korean herbal medicine) components that help lighten skin and alleviate hyperpigmentation. It efficiently brightens dull skin and evens out its tone. This serum's components are all ewg green-rated. 🌟Star ingredients -Arbutin (2%): a brightening component that evens out skin tone and helps to lighten dark spots and acne scars. Additionally, it stops pigmentation from returning even after sunburn. -Water made from rice bran (68%): rice water is widely known for its ability to lighten skin and lessen the appearance of hyperpigmentation (dark) patches. This serum is suitable for all skin types. Size: 30 ml 🌟Directions for use -Apply a sufficient amount of serum after toning and cleaning. -Gently tap and massage into the skin to promote absorption. -Apply your preferred moisturizer next. 🍚🤍My experience This serum comes in a 30ml dropper bottle, which is their trademark. It doesn't differ from the other serums in any way. Like other of beauty by josen's serums, it is excellent, non-sticky, and only requires a few drops. Similar to viscous water, consistency is transparent and odorless. When used sparingly according to one's skin needs, i believe all skin types can benefit from this. This serum easily absorbs into the skin and melts into a thinner consistency. It works under makeup, and I use it both in the morning and at night. I observed a slight improvement in the two weeks in the general tone of my skin. My skin appeared less dull than previously, even though the acne scars are still evident. On the other sections of my face, the serum immediately absorbed, leaving my skin feeling smooth and looking radiant. If I'm being completely honest, this serum doesn't hydrate as much as the other serums, but it still has the potential to help your skin develop a gradual, healthy glow. If you deal with mild hyperpigmentation and have normal to dry skin, this serum will work best for you.

I tried Meditheraphy Vita Real Toning Laser Cream that comes with a red LED massger that sits in the lid. Very clever design. The Vitamin Capsule & Moisture Gel Cream is light weight. It has creamy casule enclosed in gel formula. The cream has a lightweight texture that absorbs quickly and non greasy. Use the massger for better absorption . The little red light helps with absorption and has anti aging benefits. It also produces little vibration. It starts automatically as the front touches the skin ans it off itself when you lift it. So convient. The LED device claims to boosts cream absorption by 161%, ensuring that skin gets the maximum benefit from the product. I enjoy using this device for massaging. I didn’t notice any drastic improvement but hope to notice the difference after couple of weeks Overall a great product and like the packaging.

Works well as a first of 2 step cleanser, takes off the gunk without stripping or irritating. I like to use it to take off sunscreen and light makeup, like a cleansing balm, on dry skin.

Key Ingredients: ❄️LANBENA Liquid Crystal (LC) emulsification technology - Fast film formation and deep absorption of blackheads 🌼Chrysanthemum extract - Regulates water-oil balance and purifies pores 🪴Aloe Vera Leaf Extract - Pore tightening , soothing and moisturizing Key Features: ✅️Alcohol free ✅️Fragrance free ✅️Non-comedogenic 💭Thoughts: Unlike regular nose pore strips that come with a type of glue that can be activated when wet, this separates the ‘glue’ and the strips. Under 5°C this balm is solid so if you’re living somewhere cold, you may have to reheat this in some hot water for 10-15 minutes before use. For me, it came in a light, runny form that I could spread easily over my nose and cheeks before sticking on the all natural vegetable fibre paper. It’s a bit messier than standard nose pore strips but I think this is a good idea as you can directly apply the cream on whichever parts you’d like rather than having to cut up regular pore strips which don't actually fit your face properly. It was also super effective in removing my blackheads without hurting the surface of my nose!

Oily/Resilient

Ok so I'm about to share not only a review but kind of a hack, because I've found that this toner not only works a treat when being used on the face, but also, and even better, when used in the body. More specifically it's a great solution for bacne! Those pesky blackheads and pimples that plague the back of us oily skinned divas don't stand a chance against this. The hack is to put it on a spray bottle, or you can just add a spray cap on the original bottle if you have one that fits. Then after shower, or before bed, spray it on your back and let it dry for a couple minutes before putting clothes on. I normally do that at night because that's when I like to shower, whenever I feel my back is in need of it. If you want to do it on your morning routine, just be sure to cover it with SPF because AHA sensitizes the skin to UV rays. And this solution has plenty of it, with 7% Glycolic Acid. I've found that if I use it everyday on my face it can be a bit drying, soap few times a week is ideal. But on my back I can use it daily during summer and it really helps keep my pores under control on the scorching Australian heat. And it's a steal for the price. The brand claims that "Glycolic Acid is an alpha hydroxy acid that exfoliates the skin. This 7% toning solution offers mild exfoliation for improved skin radiance and visible clarity. The formula also improves the appearance of skin texture with continued use. This formula contains a studied Tasmanian Pepperberry derivative. This derivative is of plant origin and varies in colour seasonally and this colour variation may be apparent in the formula from time to time. The formula is further supported with inclusion of ginseng root and aloe vera for both visible radiance and skin soothing benefits." Which I found to be pretty much true! Highly recommend.
