I would add that the pore clearing is only temporary since I noticed my pores getting clogged and oily again after three days.

-So after cleaning, I then applied the clay mask on my clean, dry skin. You can totally feel the spheres in the mask when using, though they immediately dissolve seconds after I started to spread the product all over my face. After evenly distributing it all over my face, it gave off a cooling sensation,  which I love because its just so relaxing!  I then wait for 10 minutes before washing with warm water. I usually use this clay mask 1-2 times a week, 3 when Im feeling myself a little extra and funky fresh. It really does its work in clearing the gunk out of my pores. 
To sum this up, I cannot stress how much I love this product; its really gentle in exfoliating my skin. I recommend this to the people with an oily skin type or combination with an oily T-zone that wants to target some congestion on their pores and have some physical and chemical exfoliation in the process.

Product pros and cons
PROS
-very hydrating
-regulates sebum production
-calms my inflamed skin due to external stressors
-refreshing
-the smell is divine(it has a natural scent)
-can be layered without feeling heavy

CONS
-can stain clothes

I use this toner after cleansing to bring back the hydration that was stripped off while washing my face. The texture is very watery with a light brown tint that is very pleasant to the eyes. I love how it sinks through my skin effortlessly, making me want to layer more cuz it&#39;s that perfect. I always feel so calm and fresh after and the healthy glow it gives my skin every time I use it is my drug. I&#39;m addicted. I sometimes use this as a mask pack, soak it with a cotton pad and let it sit on my face for a good 10 minutes and let me tell you, the effects are astounding! I had no irrigation or any skin allergy while using this whatsoever  which is why after several uses it immediately made its way into my HG status skin product. NO words can describe how immaculate this product can be for your skin. I recommend this to all skin types that what a toner to refresh, hydrate, and calm your skin while giving it abundance of antioxidants from the green tea extracts. Trust me you won&#39;t want to miss on this one. I forgot to say this the other day, but always remember to stay safe baes. xx.

PROS
-Reliable SPF and PA ratings
-Very Hydrating
-Easily spreadable
-lightwieght
-Affordable

CONS
-stings my eyes

This sunscreen does its job. There&#39;s nothing exceptional about it, but it works, and it works well. I have no issues with this sunscreen aside from it stinging my eyes from time to time, but I&#39;m used to the pain :&#39;). It has a lightweight texture that easily glides through my skin without a hitch. I also like how it doesn&#39;t leave me whiter than my original complexion, even though this contains the ingredient Tinsorb M.
I&#39;ve tried testing this product out when I had the rare chance to go out of my house and be under the tyranny of the sun for 2 hours. I didn&#39;t have any sunburn even though I get it quickly, so it performed really well and did what was expected. I recommend this to all skin types who are looking into a hydrating and lightweight sunscreen. Be sure to protect yourselves during the summertime, baes!

PRODUCT PROS AND CONS
PROS
-true to its claims about targeting blackheads and pores
-oily skin must have
-slightly hydrating for my combination skin
-can last me up to a year

CONS
-leaves an oily film on my skin
-smells like nail polish
-the price is too $$ in my country

Today, I will talk about a very popular exfoliant that has created a buzz in our community, and this is the Paula&#39;s Choice Skin Perfecting 2% BHA Liquid Exfoliant. It has a really watery texture which can be quite hard to apply, as I don&#39;t own or use any cotton pads, but the longer I use it, the more I&#39;ve gotten used and pretty masterful at applying it with my hands. It&#39;s a skill, I tell you.
The smell is something I can&#39;t quite comprehend, something akin to nail polish, but I could be mistaken. I use this after my hydrating toner, and truthfully, the oily finish it leaves on my skin can be bothersome and annoying at times. Still, the feeling disappears after I apply my serums and moisturizers, so I recommend doing that if you have the same preferences as me. Almost a year has passed since I started using this product 3 times a week, and these are the notable changes I&#39;ve noticed on my skin. For the first 3 months, there weren&#39;t many visible changes, but I noticed my skin felt softer and brighter. However, my blackheads weren&#39;t going anywhere, and my T-zone still oils up a lot. After 6 months, I observed a considerable difference in my nose area, which was the blackheads that could be previously clearly seen on camera, were now hard to detect whenever I took pictures. Still, my t-zone continues to oil up. to end things off (&#39;cause I&#39;ve blabbered on for too long), I recommend this to my oily acne prone baes out there that want a product for their acne, blackheads, and everything in between. I also suggest my combination skin type baes to use this (I haven&#39;t forgotten yall ;).

Product pros and cons
PROS
-very hydrating
-surprisngly very calming
-my skin became soft after every use
-can be used as a first step if u dont like cleansing in the morning
-60pads
-the pad is easy to grip on

CONS
-there&#39;s no tweezers coming with it
-not really eco friendly(not sure if the pads are biodegradable or not)
-sometimes the lid is so hard to close

When I discovered the Isntree Spot Saver Mugwort Toner Pads, it caught my attention since I havent tried using pads beforehand so I didn&#39;t know what to expect. This has a very interesting gauze pad as it&#39;s sorta shaped like a moon. It has a punch hole on its edge so that you&#39;ll have a better grip and avoid accidentally dropping it on the ground all the time. For someone who has clumsy fingers, this was very thoughtful of them to do. The pad has an embossed side for gentle physical exfoliation and a smoother side for when your skin feels sensitive or when you want to use it as a mask pack. My experiences so far with this pad have been pretty decent. It somehow calms my furiously inflamed pimples while also giving me the hydration that I need for the day. It also makes my skin smoother thanks to the embossed side of the pad. Overall, it&#39;s a really good toner pad, but it still has its minor inconveniences, like it doesn&#39;t have tweezers or sometimes the lid doesn&#39;t close properly. 
Other than that, it delivers what it claims, the expectations and the reality aren&#39;t too far off. However, in my humble opinion, toner pads aren&#39;t really essential in a skincare routine considering you can also get the same benefits with the regular toner. Nonetheless, it&#39;s suitable for all skin types, and if you&#39;re really wiling to splurge and prefer this type of toner then I&#39;d say go for if, do whatever floats your boat. Just remember, while you&#39;re rocking the waves, stay safe xx.
