There's so many terms going around regarding this sort of skin, so I was wondering if there a differnce and why people would prefer one over the other.

Difference between glass vs dewy skin?

Recieving upvotes use to be 10 points and now it is 20.

Commenting on reviews is now 50 than 20.

Did anyone notice that the points allocation has changed on Picky?

While this might be haircare related, the scalp is also a specific part of the skin. I'd like to hearwhat you guys may be doing to protect hair growth and maintence whether ig be through products, diet and or lifestyle choices.

Scalp care! What is your routine?

I'm in the 20s to 30s range. The most anti-aging I've taken is retional eye cream and wishtrend's bakuchiol night cream.

Recently a vegan korean skincare brand has reached out to me to select a product I want to try and I'm seeking something like an anti-aging cream or serum because my skin looks aged due to sleep and stress issues. I only have wrinkles on my forehead cause i'm expressive.

I found an ampoule/serum but the only thing is that this  has EGF and FGF in it. I personally never heard of these in skincare before, but my brief research tells me it helps with collagen production, which speeds skin cell growth too. The argument or fear associated with cancer.... as is... cancer works the same way in speeding cell growth in a horrible way. There is no evidence but it is a fear.

The EGF and FGF are still vegan cause it's derived from plant material. I'm not sure how this helps but the product has a great review but it has the lowest amount of reviews. The reviews on Picky for this product have been over a year ago.

What's your take on anti-aging skincare with growth factors like EGF and FGF?

I'm posing this question as this has happened several times. When I win a Picky giveaway, 60% of the time it goes to my mailbox instead of my door or at the pick up point. (It totally random.)

While I like it going to my mailbox due to the package being secure... this mail box is made of metal and is in direct heat of the sun. Right now, the heat record in my location is extreme. When I take the package out of the box I can feel it cooking in my hand. When I immediately open it at home the product packaging and container is hot. 

So far I smelled the product and tested it on my hand but it seems fine, but I know that these are intended to be stored in cool environments... some people also put skincare in the fridge. Is the effectiveness worn off from the products if they are heated?

Is there anything wrong with 
 skincare and makeup products that have been a hot environment? (More info and context below)

The packaging tries to copy a luxury feel, but I think it can be improved. The scent almost feels like it though.

I didn't use it long enough to determine the bad side, but I didn't see my skin react badly to it. I think there are other methods that are better for anti aging in younger generations as this is geared much for the mature skin. It's a very hydrating serum though, qlbeit scented.

🌿 🍄 Anti-aging with an approach of traditional herbal supplements 🌿 🍄

Growing up my family members and I would use ginseng tea in we needed to maintain focus (like exams etc) or eat warm nourishing with black fungus. Skin House’s Wrinkle Supreme Serum caught my interest as it was made with both! The ginseng helps with skin vitality, reducing inflammation whereas the 9 different mushroom extracts is loaded with various antioxidant properties.

Looking down at the ingredient list, it also has squalene! It’s naturally produced in our bodies where it gives skin the ability to retain water, where skin can keep hydrated. But as we grow into our mid 20s, the production slows. A very reasonable ingredient to help with anti-aging. (Be warned though, if you are allergic or sensitive to nuts, there's some macadamia nut oil in this.)

Benefits + tips to use:
🌿 helps with hydration and dryness, especially fine lines
🌿 specifically designed for anti-aging purposes
🌿 suitable for all skin types! (Wrinkles don’t discriminate lol)

My thoughts on it:
I may be the oddball here, but I adore green and herbal like scents like this serum had! The texture isn’t that heavy. It absorbs well and I felt hydrated after letting it sit on my skin before applying the cream version of this line of product (another similar review of that one is coming your way in a bit!).

I think this product in much better for people who fit the age range. Things like retinol or vitamin C would be much better for my age group in preventing wrinkles in the first place, and I’m unsure how effective this will be for me as my wrinkles are due to my poor sleep and stress. It’s not that this was a waste though, as I know my mother is currently enjoying this product haha.

If this product sounds suitable for you or you are seeking a skincare gift for someone you love, you can get this on StyleVana. The serum is currently on sale, but if you want another 10 to 15% off, use my code INF105RENZI at the checkout!

I didn't use it long enough to determine it's bad side. Might not be strong enough for the anti aging as some people have said, but I qlso think alternative methods is better for younger generation groups for qnti aging purposes. At most, it's a very good hydrating moisturizer.

My thoughts on it:
The cream also has a nice herbal scent! The texture isn’t that heavy. After using it a couple times I noticed the cream retains moisture and nourishes my skin very well. (This one doesn't seem to have macadamia nut oil in it like the serum.)

I think this product in much better for people who fit the age range. Things like retinol or vitamin C would be much better for my age group in preventing wrinkles in the first place, and while the cream seems effective, I think it's best used with a serum of the same line to do the best work it can for someone who fits the target market of this product better. Still not a waste though, as I know my mother is currently enjoying this product haha.

Nothing! The applicator seems... a bit weird for sunscreen but hey it's stable and I love it! Wish there was more of it though

HaruHaru’s Black Rice Moisture AiryFit Sunscreen: A Vegan Delight for Skin

Benefits 🌟
- Broad-Spectrum Protection: Guarding against UVA and UVB rays, preventing sun damage and premature aging.
- Hydration Boost: Enriched with black rice extract, it provides deep hydration, leaving the skin supple and moisturized, even in the harshest weather conditions.
- Non-Greasy Comfort: Unlike many sunscreens, this AiryFit formula offers a lightweight, non-greasy finish, perfect for daily wear. It absorbs swiftly, leaving behind no residue, ensuring a comfortable experience throughout the day.

I can see why this chemical sunscreen (and it’s mineral counterpart) is a huge hit and I’m so glad I got to try it! The black rice extract not only shields the skin from harmful UV rays but also delivers healthy nutrients to hydrate making it an ideal choice for conscientious consumers. Its vegan nature not only aligns with ethical values but also ensures a more natural and gentle touch on the skin, making it suitable for various skin types, even the most sensitive. 

AND THE UNIQUE THING IS THE VELVET MATTE FINISH! I can definitely rely on this sunscreen to base my makeup or just use light coverage with it! I love this so much.

My review has been late due to receiving a delayed shipment and Instagram’s restriction behaviour (although it was more of faulty uploading the video), but I also have another review coming up soon for the Black Rice Anti-Aging Serum so stay tuned!

Get this sunscreen on Stylevana with my code INF105RENZI for 10%-15% off (15% off if total purchase is over $75 CAD)

The only thing I don't like about this product is that... it has a sticky and thick formula. It feels like a viscous formula and texture. (Because it's made 'waterless'.) Although you don't need much of this product for each time you apply it, it does make it slightly annoying to massage across your face for it to absorb correctly. For me, I prefer (and am used to) have a lightweight product for brightening my skin!


Got to try a super Vitamin C product! elmt's Pure Vitamin C 20% Element Serum, a powerful addition to the skincare routine! 🍊✨ Suitable and tested for sensitive skin, this serum is formulated with a high concentration of pure Vitamin C, known for its potent antioxidant properties. It helps with:

1️⃣ Brighten and Even Out Skin Tone

2️⃣ Boost Collagen Production

3️⃣ Protect Against Environmental Damage

✨My Experience✨

Incorporating elmt's Pure Vitamin C 20% Element Serum into your skincare routine can help you achieve a brighter, more even complexion while promoting skin health and protection, and that's what I've noticed using it 3 times a week in the morning.

I don't use it everyday, because the concentration is very high with this antioxidant. It's a great product to have especially for sensitive skin, but it makes it likely to be irritated by sun, so if you use during the day, make sure you use lots of sunscreen after you apply the serum (and the lotion too). Remember to patch test before applying it to your face and consult with a skincare professional if you have any concerns. It's recommended to patch test this product.

If you are looking a long term Vitamin C solution to add to your sensitive skin care routine, consider this one! You can get this product on #Amazon.

Heads up, this was gifted to me by Picky and elmt in exchange for my honest review. Thanks for reading and 👣 for my #UGC journey!
