I like the idea of dieux's deliverance serum with the cannabinoid complex, but I'm not a big fan on the niacinamide. I'm not looking for cbd cream for recreational purposes btw lol. I want something that is cosmetic elegant and doesn't feel scammy/ low quality. thank you!!

I unexpectedly purchased my dream car and so now am revisting my skincare budget lol. I'm going to stick w/ my heavy hitters bc I've seen what happens when I stop using them. Those are: TNS, Defenage 8 in 1, Altreno, Azelaic Advanced, Sweet Chemistry and UVMUNE400.

But I'd love to find some alternatives to:

• Venn Cica Biome Booster - this is essentially an incredible cica serum. Super soothing, lightweight, and just hydrates and soothes so well. I was looking at the Skin1004 cica serums - any other K Beauty HGs you all have tried or love?
• Venn Compound K - this is like a hydrating ginseng antioxidant serum. I mostly use it as some added hydration in the daytime. I guess I could use the cica replacement about, or another light, hydrating, antioxidant (non-acidic) serum?

I’ve been going back and forth on which LED mask to buy and figured I’d ask here before I finally decide.
I have mild rosacea on my cheeks, but I also get the occasional breakout, so I’d really like something that can help with both. I’m also prone to migraines, so I’m a little worried about how bright some of these masks are. I definitely don’t want something that feels uncomfortably bright or gets really hot.

Has anyone with rosacea found a mask that has helped with redness and acne, without being super bright or hot?
I’ve mostly been looking at the CurrentBody Multi-Light and Omnilux Clear, but I’m open to other suggestions too.

I’m also a little hesitant about the CurrentBody because I’ve heard some people mention having issues with their devices, and I’m wondering how good their customer service is if something goes wrong. Has anyone actually had to deal with CurrentBody customer service because their mask stopped working or they had a warranty issue? How was your experience?

If you have rosacea, I’d love to know what you’re using and whether you’d buy it again. And if you’re sensitive to bright light or prone to migraines too, I’d especially love to hear from you!

What J beauty have you tried and found effective?

My skin type: Oily. Eczema/dry, if I do not moisturize adequately then my face peels.

Some of my reviews:

• Melano CC vitamin C - my skin clears PIH faster when I'm diligent with this, but the Vitamin C amount is unknown, last i heard some years ago. The packaging is great because you can abuse it and let it sit for ages and it doesnt oxidize much. Have repurchased multiple times.

• omi sun bears gold sunscreen - Holy grail. The only thing that makes my oily shine disappear. I have used 5+ bottles and always have some in stock.

• Sekkisei facial cream wash - cleans well but makes my skin a little dry/tight, but not too badly. I am more than halfway through this cleanser. I would use this again but I am also not repurchasing soon to try other cleansers.

• Shu Uemura ultime8 oil cleanser - I only used this a few times. It gets the job done but there are more elegant formulations (my favorite is Sulhwasoo's cleansing oil). I would use this again but I will not be repurchasing soon to try other cleansing oils.
