Hi all, I’ve started using the BHA toner from Cosrx and am curious to know how long u guys let it sink in before applying other products?
I thought you could proceed once it’s absorbed but some guidelines say to wait 20 min?

How long do you leave an BHA toner on?

Hi I’m almost running out of the bija spot essence from Innisfree and am looking for another spot treatment to try for my hormonal acne..
Does anyone have suggestions?
Thanks!

acne spot treatment suggestion?

Hi all, I’m a bit confused cause I found out today that you have to share the picky instagram posts on your Instagram stories to participate in giveaways?! When you’re only using the picky app, it says in the event instructions that you have to sign up and then wait for an email if you’re selected or not.
When I looked on Instagram today I saw that it’s actually required with every giveaway that you also share that post on your stories! 🤯
I feel sad now because I thought that I had participated in many giveaways and used points for it, but it turns out I didn’t because I didn’t follow all the rules, while the rules weren’t clear for me.

Am I the only one who thought this? 😟

did you know you had to share on Instagram to participate in a giveaway?

Let’s share our skincare pet peeves! I’ll start first: Mine is when I cant manage to get all product out of a bottle with a dropper, and when my whole bathroom is wet after cleansing my face…

skincare pet peeves

Hi guys, I’m a newbie here and I have a question. I think that my skin is purging due to the Cosrx’s blackhead power liquid. Have u guys experienced this with this product and can you give me some advice? Do I have to stop using the liquid or keep going since people say purging shows that the skin turnover rate is indeed fastened? 
Thanks!

what to do when your skin is purging?!

I have nothing to complain about. But the pump sometimes makes it difficult to get the perfect amount.


Holy grail alert!This sunscreen is almost empty and it’s because it’s summertime and I’m reapplying more often, but also because I love this sunscreen so much 💙 

I honestly think this sunscreen is suitable for every skin type (except maybe if you’re sensitive to chemical filters).
I mostly prefer gel sunscreens but of all creamy sunscreens I’ve tried, this is my favorite. I’d say it’s medium weight, not too heavy but also not very light.  I like that the finish is not dewy (as it’s very popular now but I like a natural finish) and my face won’t become oily throughout the day with this spf 🤌🏻 


Thank you @go.picky and @skin1004official for gifting me this! Review is honest and my own opinion as always.  

This moisturizer comes with a spatula, but it still gets messy whenever I’m using it because of the stringy texture. 

So it was nice to try this but I wouldn’t purchase it myself because of the messiness 😅 

Even though it is slimy, it’s certainly not sticky. It feels wet when I put it on the skin and takes some time to absorb. That’s why I like to use it in the evening so I don’t have to wait for it to dry before I can put on my sunscreen. 
This also gives a cooling effect and feels quite hydrating. I do think it’s not enough for dry skin though. 



It is quite expensive though, but other than that and the oily finish, it’s definitely a product I’d repurchase! 🫶

This set contains 4 ampoules of 8 ml each and a separate dropper for all 4 ampoules. The vitamin C powder is separately stored in the cap of the ampoule and you have to push (quite hard imo) to release the powder into the suspension. This way, the vitamin C powder is quite fresh and I managed to empty 1 ampoule before it oxidized and turned brown. This also smells citrusy and has a medium weight liquid texture. It’s absorbed quickly and leaves a glowy and sometimes oily finish for my combination skin, which is a downside for me. Buttt it worked quite effectively for my hyperpigmentation even though I only used 1 ampoule 😯 



The bubble sometimes splashes too far because the cap pressure is not always easy to control

Okay I must say these products surprised me. First up is the VC Mellight boosting essence. It’s an essence that’s supposed to increase the absorption of the vitamin C products you’re using afterwards. It surprisingly has a bubble texture but it quickly turns into a more liquid substance when you rub it onto the skin. It smells citrusy and I like it 🍋 I don’t know how but it might work to help the skin absorb the vitamin C, with that said it brings me to my review about the Pure VC Mellight Ampoule 😏 



The only thing that’s a bit off putting about this cleanser is the smell. I can’t describe it: is it a faint onion smell combined with cardboard?

This cleansing foam has a thick texture that creates a thick lather, so a little goes a long way! It aims to cleanse the skin while also calming it. It’s indeed a gentle but effective cleanser that can be used both as a morning or second cleanse. It’s not hard to rinse off and there’s no film left on the face afterwards.
