So I just got to appstore and checked reviews on Picky app, it has only 66 ratings. I just wrote my review there. As many of us loving Picky and their giveaways I think Picky deserves more great reviews on Appstore and Playstore. 
Just my thoughts guys.

Edit: Sometimes we’re having so much fun here and forget Picky needs us there, to let others know about this app.

So instead of asking Picky more features on the app I think we all agree that we love Picky for its certain already available features and community.

Edit: when I told you they’re down to earth, I mean it, they already read this

What do you love about Picky?

I basically have a deep belief in rice as skincare ingredient. When I found this line from the brand I just jumped into it. This is a brilliantly made moisturizer that you can use for any season. Simply mix between the gel and cream depends on your need. More gel for humid oily day or more cream when you need extra hydration or use it whichever way you like.  No fragrance whatsoever just brighter skin! The price tag is so worth it for 80ml that last me quiet long. This product deserve more hype for sure!!

However... after 3months of religiously using this, I noticed it stopped working!! 
I did some research and found this: through Melissa Van Dijk, The Ordinary can only guarantee their retinol line products for up to 3 months with refrigeration at all time due to its formulation. That was a big dissapointment for me. I did always store this in my fridge during 3 month use, but to have only 1&#47;4 bottle used and it’s not working anymore is just a waste. 
I ended up taking it out from the fridge, keep it out of the light and use it on my strecth marks, haven’t see any improvement which I doubt I will,  cuz it’s maternal stretch marks that already turned white. 
I like this product but decided not to repurchase, don’t feel like going in and out my kitchen everytime I do my skincare, it’s a hassle.

So after 39 years of life I finally decided to take in retinol to my skincare routine, a little bit late but oh well better late than never. After a chunk of research I decided to start low with this product. 
I started with once a week for 2w, then twice a week on the third week, 3 times on the week followed and finally got to 4 times a week in a month. First night using it, nothing happened. It started to give me lil breakout here and there (nothing crazy) after the 3rd week but it went away quickly. 
Entering the 2nd month using this, I started to see more brightened youthful skin . My wrinkles were lil less noticeable, not so much with the hyperpigmentation though. I like the way I look when I wake up in the morning, boy...that feeling was good! My skin feels softer, bouncy, like I was back to my 20s. I got excited, I use this product religiously for another month. 

Texture: it’s a very simple formulation in squalane so texture is basically oil like, BUT it sinks to my skin almost immediately, slighty to no greasy feeling. I used 4 drops for my still damp face and neck on pm routine. 

Smell: fragrance free, smell slighty like old days ointment. 

Very affordable compare to other retinol products. A good starter for those who want to start their retinol journey and also those with sensitive skin due to its very simple formulation.

🍾 This product is NOT for beginner, they also stated this on their site. 

🍾 I didn’t experience any purging but as any retinol products, some reactions are expected. Some folks may have purging, tingling, etc. 

🍾 It’s on the pricier side but it’s worth the spend imo since it lasts and still works well after 5 month. The packaging doesn’t have information about expiration date or PAO.

🍾 Unfortunately, it’s not very travel friendly. I brought this with me when I fly to find it leaked when I unpacked at the hotel. Didn’t leak much but still..🤷‍♀️

I’ve had my fair share as a beginner with retinol since I started about one year ago. I took my time with this star ingredient jumping around gentle retinol products for beginner for a whole year. I finally felt it’s time to up the game and I landed my choice with this one. 

It has been the best thing sitting on my skincare stash ever since I switched. This, my friend has done exactly everything it claims to do with fine lines, wrinkles, fading dark spots(not huge but I see it fading) and more lifted and comfortable skin. 

It feels like very lightweight oil on my skin, not greasy at all, it looks like oil but not heavy, it absorbed fast into my skin, just perfect. Note that I apply this on damp skin. 

   I incorporate this into my routine slowly, started with once a week and work my way up to 4-5 times a week with no purging. 4 drops is more than enough for me though the instruction says 4-5, I found my skin reacts best with only 4. I don’t feel a need of exfoliating acids after I use this, even though I do still have them sometimes. 

    One time tough, I got redness kinda irritated skin when I do exfoliate a day after retinol routine but it quickly calmed down with just 2 days of going back to basic routine. All and all, this is a product well done by Neutrogena, I recommend this for those who are ready to step up their retinol % from a beginner to more advanced user. 

Since I only need 4 drops per use, the bottle lasts me a long time, it’s been 5 months and I still have half a bottle left. 

Notable ingredient besides 0.5% pure Retinol: Vit E. Formulated with no mineral oil, that’s the best part. 

Packaging:   30ml / 1 fl.oz for $36,99 in dark grey coated glass with dropper. 

NONE whatsoever, not even the price for this one, a little goes a long way, TYF nailed it! 

This is my second bottle rice toner from this amazing line. Thank You Farmer didn’t even have to sponsor me for what I’m going to say about this toner. First stop, it’s rice 🍚 yeah I love rice, can’t live without it lol 😂. Every single product in this Rice Pure line has this amazing ability to brighten your skin, you just have to pick which texture you like the most. 

The TEXTURE of this toner leans towards essence, milky and a little bit thicker than the ampoule. I sometimes use the ampoule before the toner. It absorbed really well into the skin, though would leave a bit of tacky feeling when use in summer, but this saved my skin in the winter last year. No problem layering it in cold weather, the brightening effect started to show on the third to a month period on my skin when used alone without the other products in the line. If you’re looking into rice in skincare, I highly recommend you start with this toner. It’s dermatologically tested and non-irritating.It also has pore care, hydrating and soothing properties. It’s an all in one product, effortlessly stays in my routine. 

NOTE: When I used this in the summertime morning routine I often skip my moisturizer, goes well with everything. 

MY SKIN: Oil company in the summer, Sahara dessert in the winter. 

PACKAGING: A whopping 200ml/7.03 fl.oz in frosted plastic bottle with twist cap for $28 (TYF site) 

Another big thanks to @thank youfarmer_official and @go.picky @pickyrewards for this beautiful product, opinions are my own. 

❌ Fragrance is the last on ingredients list but it smells quite strong. I could still smell it in the morning first time using it, I thought my guardian angel was around me for a second before I realized it was this cream, lol. 

❌ Not moisturizing enough as night cream. If you use it for winter you might want to layer it. 

I received this product for free from @go.picky and @coxir_official in exchange for my honest review

This cream surprised me in many ways, I was a lil skeptical at first if it would meet my expectations. It hydrates my skin so well this summer. I’ve been using it daily for 2.5weeks. I first use it as my pm moisturizer but quickly find it’s not as moisturizing, I wake up with a lil dried skin in the morning, so I switched it to am moisturizer and it has been perfect. 

It pairs smoothly under my chemical sunscreen, a lil pilling with mineral one but it could be just mineral ss tend to do that. It claims to lift, firm, anti-blemish, deep moisturized and nurture the skin which I find it to be true except for the moisturizing part.

TEXTURE is SLIMY as most high concentrated snail mucin moisturizers, absorbed quickly with no sticky residue on my skin. Can be an excellent eye cream as well, I’m milia prone and it has been fine. And it’s also CRUELTY FREE!

KEY INGREDIENTS: snail mucin, hydrolized collagen and black bean, it also has a ton of other notable ingredients in it.
(The ingredients list on the packaging and Coxir site is a lil different with the one on Picky. Snail mucin is first on packaging and the site while water is first on Picky database)
