I’m very indecisive about which shade I should choose since I really don’t want to waste money on buying the wrong one🥺 I was thinking of buying 21N Ivory but I kinda scare that the shade might be too light/pale for me. But I also see people choosing to buy 23N Sand for it to oxidize to be orange later. It there any tips on how you guys find your shade?

Have anyone try the TIRTIR  Mask Fit Red Cushion? Would love to hear some honest review! And about the shade options.

One video totally convinced me to buy the ANUA Heartleaf 77 Toner Pads. But I noticed that it contain PHA, a mild exfoliating ingredient. Can I use this products daily? Or just twice a weeks? Can I use niacinamide with PHA? Or would the ingredients irritate my skin like AHA/BHA would with niacinamide?

Heard toner pad is the best way to prep your skin for makeup! Is there any recommendation?

I've been trying loads of K-beauty products to fade those red acne scars, but they just seem to make things worse! No matter what I try, they're still hanging around, making me feel like I'm stuck in skincare limbo. Got any tips for something that actually works?

Asking for Opinions! What is your best skincare combo?

I have yet to notice any drawbacks from using this serum. Its gentle formulation and lightweight texture make it easy to incorporate into my routine.

Another retinol found for beginner!!! 

First thing to note is that this serum is beginner-friendly, particularly for those with sensitive skin. n. It has a watery, lightweight consistency that won’t make the skin feel heavy or irritated upon application! It effectively targets various skin concerns, with a primary focus on improving pore elasticity. In addition to this main concern, it also addresses fine lines, wrinkles, and overall skin texture. It leaves a smooth, refreshing finish!

Key Ingredients includes:

🤍 Retinol (0.1%): Encourages skin renewal and minimizes fine lines.
🤍 Bakuchiol: A gentle, retinol-like alternative for sensitive skin.
🤍 Centella Asiatica Extract/CICA PDRN: Soothes and heals the skin.
🤍 Nano-Emulsion Technology: Promotes deep absorption.
🤍 Peptides: Boost elasticity and support the skin barrier.

In terms of results, accordingly, you can expect significant improvements, including a 51.4% reduction in wrinkles, a 42.9% decrease in deep wrinkles, a 56.5% improvement in pore appearance, and a 21.1% enhancement in skin texture.

To top is off, this serum is vegan and cruelty-free, packaged in eco-friendly materials made from 40% recycled glass. 

The downside is that the serum consistency, at first,  can be lightweighted. But once you starts rubbing it into the skin, it start feeling heavy and oily. Almost like a cream. So, it may not be the best serum for those with oily skin, because some might find it a tad heavy or greasy, especially if they're already dealing with excess oil. Also, it's got Arbutin, which can be a bit controversial in skincare. Some people find it irritating, especially if they have sensitive skin. So, while it might work wonders for some, it could be a no-go for others. Just something to keep in mind before you buy it.

This ANUA serum is a definitely a mist try for fading acne scars. With its powerful blend of Niacinamide, Tranexamic Acid, and Arbutin, it works wonders in gradually reducing the appearance of those stubborn scars. Plus, it's packed with Ceramides and Hyaluronic Acid to keep your skin barrier healthy and hydrated while it does its magic. And the best part? It's gentle enough for daily use, so you can incorporate it into your AM and PM skincare routine without any issue. 

There is a slight fragrance, but it’s not noticeable!! 👌It even smell luxurious. 🤩✨

First and foremost, I love how luxurious the packaging is!! ✨💛

Plus, this is a non-greasy cream that delivers powerful anti-aging and pore care! This Black Snail Cream has been effective for me.

🤍Pearl Powder: Aims to brighten the skin

The cream absorbs fairly well and doesn’t feel greasy, which is important for me. Overall, I’m quite satisfied with the results and would recommend it to anyone looking for an effective hydrating cream! 😊🫶

It drawback is that despite its efforts to minimize white cast, it may still leave a noticeable white residue on darker skin tones. And for those with very oily skin, you may find that it doesn't provide enough mattifying or oil-controlling properties, potentially leading to a shinier complexion throughout the day. There also a slight chemical smell since it is a chemical sunscreen. While this scent is generally mild and fades quickly upon application, thise who are sensitive to fragrances or preferring scent-free products might not like it. 

Isntree Hyaluronic Acid Watery Sun Gel is your go-to for a lightweight, gentle chemical sunscreen that are perfect for not only acne-prone skin, but also for dry or sensitive skin. With its almost watery consistency, it spreads easily and absorbs quickly, leaving your skin feeling refreshed, hydrated, and protected throughout the day. It is packed with multi-molecular Hyaluronic Acid, soothing Centella Asiatica Extract, nourishing Fig Fruit Extract, and other skin-friendly ingredients like ceramides that will keeps your skin healthy and hydrated. It also leave a soft satin finish, without leaving a noticeable white cast.

I used it once or twice a week as my to-go exfoliate and I really don’t noticed any breakouts or irritations! 

The Dr.G Brightening Peeling Gel is a solid choice for gentle exfoliation, suitable and gentle enough for all skin types, including sensitive skin!😊It uses natural cellulose to remove dead skin without irritation, which is great for my sensitive skin. After a few uses, my skin feels smoother, and I’ve noticed a slight improvement in brightness. The honey and black willow extracts help soothe my skin, making it a pleasant addition to my routine.
