Skin type - Acne Prone, Combination

Toner Recommendations

Are there any products that you won in a Giveaway but now are your holy grails?

We all have different needs when it comes to skincare but I want to understand what are your top 3 holy grails for skincare..

If you would be stuck on an island forever, which three skincare products would you carry and why?

I live in a humid place and I am unable to find good sunscreens which won't feel greasy and doesn't break me out.

Sunscreen Recommendations for Oily Skin

I have had a very mixed experience with this Brand. Some products worked like a charm and other products failed miserably. To be fair, I want to give this brand a final try. Please suggest your recommendations for combination skin - Oily T-zone and Normal Cheeks

Can you tell me your 3 products recommendations from Innisfree?

Doesn't hydrate my oily skin, doesn't do anything to control oil and anything else 

The product has a very light texture, it doesn't have any major fragrance 

The only con I felt was that the packaging is not travel friendly as the bottle is bulky and made of glass

In last few years, Centella Asiatica has taken the skincare industry by a storm. Commonly known as Gotu Kola  or Cica, it is known for its miraculous healing and calming properties

Sourced from Madagascar, Skin1004 has used a 4 step process to meticulously extract the essence of Centella Asiatica. 

This product contains just ONE ingredient - 100% Centella Asiatica Extract . 

The outer packaging is made up of good quality glossy paper and is completely recyclable.

The product comes in a glass bottle with plastic cap and plastic dropper which has a different structure - refer slide 3 

Even though the bottle looks yellow, the ampoule inside is transparent and fragrance free.

The product has a very runny texture - slightly thicker than water 

The company claims that the product has a slightly acidic pH of 5.5 to create a protective layer to maintain the pH Balance of the skin. 

Lately my skin has been acting crazy. The T-zone is congested and I have had several breakouts. 

After toning, I take 4-5 drops of this Ampoule and  apply it  on damp face at Night. It is non sticky and sinks into my skin. I follow it up by some treatment &amp; moisturizer

Next day, I have observed that my pimple has calmed down and is less prominent. The overall skin is less bumpy and there are less breakouts

While I am yet to try it out for a longer duration, I have realised that this product can be used by all skin type to reduce inflammation. The product has undergone non comedogenic test and has been found suitable for acne prone and sensitive skin. 



Price - $19.98 &#47;55ml
