5 months into adapalene, my acne-prone skin has become manageable with a few occasional bumps here and there (yay!) but post-acne skin leaves new issues: scars. Currently, I have brown/dark spots or PIH and red spots or PIE. I also experience dryness in some areas and my cheek area has become more sensitive. I was excited to try this because of its well-acclaimed ingredients that target hyperpigmentation and irritated skin. Usage: AM before sunscreen and PM before adapalene. Pros: - It comes with a pump packaging for easy dispensing - Unscented! Reducing the risks of irritation from essential oils and fragrance - Medium to thick consistency but not runny - Gives an instant glow to the skin - No sticky feeling Usage: I used the serum both in the AM and PM and the cream in the PM only. Verdict: I noticed less bumps on my face the whole time I’ve used this and my skin has become less oily. The redness has lessened and some scars definitely faded. After 2 weeks of using both this and the centella recovery cream, I’m thinking of keeping only the serum. Overall, I loved how Purito formulated such products with a whole bunch of powerful ingredients. The serum, especially, is a multi-use product that targets 2 or more issues at the same time — best for incorporating an effective solution while keeping your routine simple!

Cicabio Pommade Repairing Ointment
Calmed my skin so well. Did not use any other moisturizer. This has been the only one I used to repair my skin. And it’s not heavy. It made my skin soft ++ if your acne just healed you usually see dry skin surrounding the acne which can be seen so well if you’re using make-up, this helped hydrate those dry patches. I’m still using this even after my skin healed. It’s that good!

The 6 Peptide Skin Booster Serum
Such a great serum as my first step in my skincare after cleansing my face. Hydrates my skin even more and it provides instant boost of moisture for your skin.

I've won this as a giveaway present for Christmas in 2023 from COSRX. The bottle reminds us for the viral snail mucin 96 essence bottle with the pump, but this looks even better and oval shaped. It looks more luxorious than the simple looking snail bottle in my opinion) also this is 150ml.😊 ☁️Texture: Very runny, lightweight, gel-like texture bit more like a toner essence than a serumlike texture.there is a tuch of emmoliency to it because of the soybean oil but its not even noticable. It has to be applyed in toner step because this suppose to be a booster for your following steps 😉 Great for all skin types. But I am loving that it is very hydrating dor my dehydrated skin I wasnt expecting this much hydration from a product like this honestly. Peptides in this bottle: ➡️SH-polypeptide-121 (collagen stimulating) ➡️Copper tripeptide1 (collagen stimulation,brightening,healing,revitalizing) ➡️SYN-AKE peptide(the famous botox-like peptide)they are very temporary(just like botox) so once you stop using it, your skin losts the effect of this peptide ➡️Oligopeptide-68(brightening) ➡️Palmitoyl Tripeptide-8(soothing reducing sensitivity) ➡️Acetyl Hexapeptide-8(firming and smoothing out fine lines) There are some more ingredients to point out such as: -Niacinamide -Sodium hyaluronate -Soybean oil -Adenosine ⛔️Let's clear this out, because so many people takes this product wrong⛔️ This is a nice partner/booster product! This is not a high percentage peptide serum(like the one from the Ordinary forexample) do not expect it to work like that with so many good benefits and resolts as fast as they do. This is a booster for your antiaging/firming or peptide serums! That is why its so lightweight and runny, to be able to partner it with those other great serums to boost their effects and benefits 😉 I just wanted to make this clear. Because I know firstly you think -"Wow 6 peptides in a 150ml bottle for such a good price?!" Yes, but not enough by itself to actually bring out those benefits that those peptides are claiming. 😇

Bio-Collagen Real Deep Mask
Used this once a week during my 3 week repair journey because my skin was feeling dry and tight due to my damaged barrier. Really felt hydrated after this. If you have combination or oily skin, it’s so hard when your skin becomes dry all of a sudden. It’s like you don’t know how to solve it 🥲

This hydrogel mask packs a punch with a blend of collagen, galactomyces ferment filtrate, and hyaluronic acid. It promises deep hydration, pore tightening, and improved elasticity, all while tackling fine lines and wrinkles. After using it, my skin felt plump, smooth, and visibly brighter. If you are looking for a luxurious pampering session with noticeable results, this mask is definitely worth a try!
