After emptying it, I know skincare doesn’t need to cost a lot. Too amazing…

I’ve been using the Naturie Hatomugi Skin Conditioner for a few weeks now, and honestly, I think it’s pretty decent . It’s super lightweight, which feels like water when you apply it, but it leaves my skin really soft and hydrated without any stickiness. I love because it doesn’t break me out (my skin is pretty sensitive). I use it both as a toner and sometimes as a quick mask with cotton pads when my face feels dry. It’s not super rich, so I often use their Naturie Skin Conditioning Gel together, which is really a good combo. The gel is great as well, which is like a refreshing lotion. I often slather a lot on my face and next day when I wake up in the morning, I can feel my face pumper and my redness fades a lot. Actually, what Naturie’s products attract me most is their price. You can hydrate your skin enough with less money. There are lots of products out there which can provide the same effectiveness as Naturie’s but the price would be much higher. The

This sunscreen is better than expected

I’ve been using this Minimalist Light Fluid Sunscreen for two weeks and I really want to share a review recommending this product to you guys, cause it’s soooo good!

I’m an oily and acne-prone skin. Currently I am using tretinoin 0.05%, roundlab 1025 Dokdo toner, minimalist Light Fluid sunscreen. I’ve just finished up a tube of anessa sunscreen, which is great too, and I thought of switching up a new sunscreen, so that’s why I am using this one now.

This sunscreen, as it advertises, is really lightweight and fluid like. It blends super quickly and smoothly. I often use 3 fingers length for better uv protection. What I like this sunscreen most is that it doesn’t give me a very greasy and oily finish but a kinda dewy one. Also it doesn’t cause me any breakouts, and it’s gentle to apply. Second pic is my acne level, which improves a lot after using it for a while. I would give it a 8/10. Will repurchase.

Sharing my heroes that help fix my acne!

Guys, you have no idea how much I’ve been suffering during these months, but thankfully, I got them, that helps me eventually clear my acne. I am a combination and acne-prone skin, with my T zone super oily and the rest of my face normal, but my chin area often got acne a lot. I’ve done lots of trial and error to get my current routine, which I think most people might get benefit from it.

My morning routine: water, curel moisture lotion, neutropenia niacinamide serum. Evening routine: PanOxyl Benzoyl peroxide face wash, Curel moisture lotion, finacea azelaic acid.

As you can see, there are many actives in the pic, so you do have to apply them at different times. Also I use the ordinary glycolic acid toner to treat my backache and it works wonders as well.

I must give a shout out to Curel’s lotion, since it’s super lightweight and decent, which is a good buffer for oily skin before apply actives.

Last pic is a tool checking my skin improvement, kinda helpful

Help picking cleanser and moisturizer

Hi all! The current face wash and moisturizer that I use are about to be all used up. I currently use and love the First Aid Beauty Pure Skin cleanser, which I've used and repurchased for years. But it was recently reformulated and reviews aren't so good for the changes that were made, so I've been hesitant to try. Plus, it's kind of pricey for a basic cleanser.
 
I'm considering getting the Vanicream cleanser or the Cerave Cream to Foam cleanser. Both seem pretty gentle. Can anyone let me know your experiences with these products?

For moisturizer, I usually use the First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair cream, but have been using the Cerave Mositurizing Cream and liking it okay. But I feel like it isn't as hydrating as I want, so I usually mix in some rose hip seed oil with it.

I'm considering the Vanicream moisturizer in the tub or the Ilyoon Ceramide Alto cream, as it seems highly recommended. Can anyone let me know your experience with either of these products and which might be better? I know the Vanicream will be really basic.

About my skin: dry/combo skin. In the morning, I use Bioderma to swipe off any oils from the night and follow that with just a sunscreen. Currently using and enjoying the Purito Sun Day Adventure. In the evening, I use the BOJ cleansing balm, FAB Pure Skin Cleanser, Cerave cream mixed with rose oil. And every other night I apply Differin gel between layers of moisturizer. 

My skin does not tolerate niacinamide and I'm worried I might be sensitive to Hyaluronic Acid too. I go through phases of clear skin and then will have acne flare ups. My last acne breakout seemed to have been caused by trying to add a hydrating toner to my routine. I tried the HaruHaru Wonder Black Rice Hyaluronic Toner. A week into using it I had several large spots I'm still trying to clear now. Previously I tried the Laneige Cream Skin toner which I LOVED how it made my skin feel, but I broke out pretty bad from it too.

Thanks for any help or suggestions for products! I feel like I keep things pretty simple as is. Sorry this was so long! 😅

My skincare vs my boyfriend’s skincare… how is this fair lol

I’m genuinely so mad right now. I use a million products and my boyfriend barely does anything but his skin still looks way better than mine.

I have sensitive dry skin so I layer so much stuff thinking it’ll help, but now I’m wondering if I’m actually making it worse.

I asked him what he uses and he just said he uses whatever his friends gift him or whatever’s easy to buy on Amazon.

I’m out here spending so much money and he’s winning with almost nothing. This feels rigged lol

Here's everything i know about skincare after five years of genuinely paying attention

okay so this is a bit of a long one but i want to write the comprehensive version of what i have genuinley learned bc i think having it all in one place would have been useful to me five years ago.

about products:

the most important product is spf and most people are not using it correctly, every single day at spf 50 minimum is genuinley non negotiable if u care about ur skin long term, nothing else u do matters as much

retinoids are the only topical ingredient with robust long term evidence for genuine skin structural improvement, everything else is more provisional

hyaluronic acid applied on damp skin is one of the best value interventions in skincare and most people are either not using it or using it incorrectly

fragrance in all forms is the most common unnecessary irritant in skincare and fragrance free should be ur default especially if ur skin is reactive

about routines:

simple and consistent always outperforms complex and inconsistent, the most impressive skin i have seen in this community comes from boring basics held for years not sophisticated routines

more products does not mean better results, beyond a certain point every additional product is either redundant or counterproductive

about skin:

ur skin type will change and what worked at 25 will not work at 35, building ur routine around what ur skin needs now rather than what it needed before is genuinley important

environmental factors matter more than most skincare content acknowledges, water hardness, air humidity, climate, and sleep genuinley affect ur skin as much as what u put on it

patience measured in months not weeks is the single most common thing standing between people and the results they are looking for

i would add one more: track ur skin properly, five years of memory is not reliable and being able to look back at what actually worked and when changed how i understand my own skin more than any single product discovery, started doing it properly in skinpalai and the difference in how well i understand my own skin now versus before i was tracking is genuinley significant.

what would u add to this list?

edit: grammar

I don‘t think Re’equil matte sunscreen is worth the hype

I just want to share my experience with this re’equil ultra matte sunscreen. TBH, I don’t think it worth the hype, especially compared to UV Doux. To start with, I am a sensitive oily acne-prone skin. Right now I am living in a humid hot weather. Normally I apply 2 pea-size of it on my face for better sun protection and it’s quite hard to blend in. And Idk if it’s because I use too much or other reasons, I can feel the whitecast around my nose area. Also as a sensitive skin, this one really makes my skin itchy and irritating, though it gets better after a few minutes, To make it more visibly clear, you guys can check the sec pics, revealing my redness level after putting it on. As to oil control, it’s quite good, but you would get oily few hours later, especially if you got sweaty. Also water resistance is decent. I’ve used UV Doux sunscreen before and the overall experience is better for me, so next time maybe I’ll still go for UV Doux.

Finished up this foundation, my honest review!

Anyone who has been using this Dior backstage face and body foundation, let me see you! I just love this foundation so much. The formula is watery and lightweight and it gives me a sort of semi matte finish. I don’t feel cakey when I have this on. Also, it provides a good coverage, but if you like me who has acne scars, I recommend adding a concealer to give you a better look. Besides, I’ve heard someone said it oxidizes very quickly but I haven’t come across this issue. It just fits me well. As for shade, my undertone is neutral cool and I highly recommend trying out shades 1w.

BTW, I’ve stumbled upon a tool that tells me what my undertone and shade is. It’s quite useful and the result is quite accurate. This feature is free so definitely worth a try.

Do you guys have any recommendation on foundation, cause I’m looking for other good one right now!

Do you think diet and skin health are connected?

Everyone knows that your diet influences your inner health but I've always believed that your inner health definitely has at least some influence on how your skin shows up. Your skin is an organ after all!

How about you guys? Do you not ice a connection between your diet and your skin health?

I’ve been using this sunscreen for the past couple of weeks and I’ve thinking this is kinda overhyped.. What is your experience/thoughts?

Skin type: oily skin, acne-prone and a little sensitive

I’ve been thinking about getting a new suncreen since this one is kinda boring and does a meh job like BOF Aqua Fresh or Skin1004 suncreen

What’s a k-beauty product you repurchased more than 3 times?

I realized the products I repurchase are usually not the dramatic ones but the ones that work well for my skin with consistency.

The skin1004 centella ampoule is my holy grain example 😭

Curious what everyone else keeps repurchasing over and over?

I think it’s pretty, what do you think?

Finally have time to do this eye makeup. Recently I got into this colorful eyeshadow but wasn’t sure if it’s safe to use around my eye area but in the end, I did it. The ultimate look is quite decent, and I just love the metallic looking.(kinda bold) However, I am a little shy to show it to my colleague but at the same time, I want to share it with someone, so, here I am! What do you think of it?

Here are the products I use:

Pat McGrath Mothership II: Sublime

Urban Decay Anti-Aging Eyeshadow Primer Potion

Canmake Creamy Touch Liner 02 medium brown

Maybelline Lash Sensational Sky High Mascara

Also recently I’ve found a tool on Reddit that can check your dark circles and other skin conditions and out of curiosity, I tried it several times and the results are quite accurate.

False advertising by CeraVe

I (30F) have been on the hunt for a gentle retinol for acne-prone, oily, sensitive skin. I finally gave up on researching Asian skincare (which is typically my preference) and tried out the CeraVe Resurfacing Retinol Serum because it was marketed as exactly what I needed.

Turns out this serum contains Isopropyl Myristate, which is known to clog pores and is generally not recommended for use on acne-prone skin.

ETA: it broke me out like crazy so I only figured this^ out when I went to figure out what was going on.

I’m frustrated with myself for not researching the ingredients beforehand, and blindly trusting marketing because I trusted the brand. So I’m just posting here to hopefully save others the trouble, frustration, and breakouts.

All this aside, I’d also love to hear recommendations for gentle retinol serums for acne-prone, sensitive, oily skin!

Can’t let you guys miss it. It has become my HG

I didn’t see anyone mentioned this muji sensitive skin moisturizing milk but this one is really value for money. I’ve been using it for a month and my skin feels good after using this. I don’t feel any irritation, and dryness. This product simply focuses on hydration, without any unnecessary ingredients. No fragrance, alcohol, or parabens. The texture is really soothing and sinks in quickly. I am sensitive and acne-prone skin, sec and third pic shows my redness level before and after using this product, I feel my skin kinda calmed down by using it, but this product is hard to get and becomes exorbitantly expensive. Do you have any dupe for this?
