Hey everyone! I bought the Beauty of Joseon Ginseng oil cleanser and after using it a couple of times, it gave me some terrible breakouts that are still healing.
I have combination sensitive skin with oily T zone and moderately acne prone. I have also sensitive eyes.
Girls with similar skin traits as me: what oil cleanser or balm cleanser do you use?
I would really appreciate some suggestions.
It's on drastic sale on the Official Illiyoon TikTok Shop.
One is reduced to $9.49 + 50% off. Three are $39.70. Why?? 🤔 I can buy 3 for much less than that.
I bought FIVE for only $14.72 total, including free shipping!! I did it by using the current 50% off + 40% off you buy 5 total.
No, I do not work for Illiyoon or TikTok Shop.
What serums do you use on the daily to hydrate your skin for that plumping glowy effect???
Also is this serum something u use for your makeup base?
Do you feel like it’s helped your acne?
Do you know if this serum is fungal acne safe?
Drop your skin type & give a detailed review :))
I’m trying to find a fungal acne safe hydrating serum for sensitive dehydrated to combination skin with comedones & clogged pores. HELP A GIRL OUT PLEASE!!!
Hi I’ve got around 2 ish weeks before I leave for college (leaving by plane) so I want to get some stuff delivered to my house. I never ordered from Stylevana before but it says the shipping time for express shipping is 4-9 business days and everything in my cart is planned to be shipped in less than 24 hours. Do you think this is worth trying cuz I have 13 days left?
Thanks :)
I have one monolid and one triple eyelid. I’m not sure if i had this since birth or it developed when i was young. But how do i fix this? its been like this for as long as i can remember. its rlly hard to do eye makeup cuz i have to do each eye differently to make it look decent and symmetrical. It also ruins pics that r supposed to be good…
(pics of what it looks like in the comments)
bonus: does anyone know how to remove the like wrinkles under the eye? i accidentally put a mud mask on it and it dried out my under-eyes which caused the wrinkles to be more prominent. Ive been putting moisturizer and eye gel for months now and it has been effective but not to a large scale. I’m also worried its gonna cause milia on my under eyes if i do it too often lol
thx guys
Hi! I’m looking for recommendations for a good lip tint/stain! I really like the blurred edges look but everything I’ve tried typically wipes away. I have a vertical labret piercing and play with it a lot, so something that can withstand my dumbass would be great. Thank you in advance!
I’ll be in Korea for 11 hours and really wanna get some skin treatments done. I am a 28 year old woman ◡̈ I’m very interested in collagen producing skin treatments and have been researching but not too sure which to choose. I have very small pores and pretty good skin, but have lost some facial fat under my cheeks in the hallows, I’d really love to get my baby face back. Ik I’ll have to get multiple treatments over the years to get my desired results but wanted to ask what would be best for me if anyone has any advice◡̈ thank you!!
I have EXTREMELY sensitive eyes, many people suggest to just switch to mineral ones, but I tried it before and they irritate my eyes even more.
My favorite sunscreens so far have been skin 1004 Water-Fit Sun Serum, but on some days, it can still irritate my eyes, I thought that it might be due to niacinamide in it.
I know that old BOJ Relief Sun Rice Probiotics irritated some people, have any of you experienced irritation from the new Relief Sun Aqua - Fresh?
I am looking to purchasing it, as it has no niacinamide and contains panthenol, which my skin loves (also I am just a rice fun, for some reason, I can't resist a product that has rice in it).
I've never heard a negative thing about Dr Althea mist and everyone I heard it from tells me it doubles as a makeup fixer throughout the day, just spray, pat it in with a cushion and then reapply a small amount of loose powder, but when I do it, it takes my makeup in clumps and basically acts as a makeup remover.
I'm just confused because it feels like I'm the only one having issues with using it as a makeup fixer lol
I use Maybelline super stay foundation.
hey y'all! I'm really close to finishing my current moisturiser and I'm looking for recommendations because i haven't found my holy grail yet. I've been using korean moisturisers, now an etude soonjung one, and before that i used the s.nature squalane and dr althea 345 moisturizer, which i loved, but apparently they changed the ingredients and the packaging wasn't good.
i have combination skin, so something lightweight is best for me. i do also hate when something leaves a film on my skin because i have some sensory issues, so i just want something that sinks in quick but doesn't leave me dry or make me produce more oil throughout the day.

I have dry skin and have been using the Papa Recipe Bombee Black Honey Mask Pack, and I’m honestly loving the results so far! 🍯💛 I’ve noticed an improvement in the texture of my skin, and it feels much more plumped, hydrated and smooth after using it. ✨
I only use this particular mask twice a week, and it’s quickly becoming one of my favourites. My skin has been looking so much more glowy lately! 🥹✨
I’d love to try more from Papa Recipe, so which masks are your favourites? 💕

Hello! I recently changed up my entire skincare routine, so far so good. I am looking to change my cleanser to something that isn’t so harsh and drying. I’m realizing that I actually have dry skin all along which is why I changed up my routine.
I don’t know much about actives and all the things. I just want advice or suggestions on the products. Here is my current routine:
for anyone who’s had cosmetic treatments done in Korea, how did you guys decide which clinic was the right one for you?
I’m planning a trip to Korea this winter, and aside from traveling, I’m also thinking about getting a thread lift. I had ultherapy about 3 years ago, and I feel like the results have pretty much faded now, plus I’m getting older. I’m still not ready to do anything too invasive like surgery tho, so I’m looking into thread lifts.
my biggest concern is that this will be my first time getting a treatment overseas, so I have no idea how people usually go about choosing a clinic. I’ve been researching a few clinics in Seoul and contacted 1–2 of them, but so far I’ve mostly gotten generic/template replies and I hate it. before going to one place, I really want to have an actual consultation where I can explain what I want, ask questions, and get proper recommendations.
for those of you who’ve done treatments in Korea, do you normally consult online and book beforehand, or is walking in pretty common? some of my friends recommended to chat lalamedi since they can apparently help with the consultation, clinic selection, and booking, but I’m still hesitant because I’m also trying to research clinics on my own first.
so here I am, I’d love to hear about your experience. how did you choose your clinic, and would you recommend booking an appointment in advance before going there?
HI GUYS so i have a dilemma. i used to use estee lauder futurist hydra foundation, and the shade was amazing, wear was amazing, coverage was amazing... looked good after hours of oilyness and wouldnt melt when i sweat.
HOWEVER, they reformulated it and now the same shades way too light and it doesnt apply evenly at all. it also looks cakey now. im so sad because i swore by it before.
now i use glow not dry concealer as my base and I LOVE the way it looks when its freshly put on, but it looks pretty horrendous after i sweat and by the end of the day its creasing quite a bit. nothing else has changed in my makeup routine. i use urban decay all nighter setting spray and it still doesnt really help much.
ive also tried maybelline age rewind concealer but its too yellow on me (im neutral toned, used to korean skintone shades). it looks amazing, but its not very longwearing and lowkey breaks me out. glow bb cream also broke me out.
to note, i really like to make my skin matte with the innisfree no sebum powder on my tzone, so it cant look cakey under lots of powder
is there still hope out there for me???? any holy grails you guys swear by???

Hi! So I am a 32 y/o tired mom. Looking for help with dark circles, skin texture, anti-aging/wrinkle prevention. TikTok has really got me with the whole metacube vs dr. Melaxin. I am curious about Korean skin care but don’t know where to start. Should I go with those brands or is there something better? TIA
Ps. I also have sensitive skin.
Hey guys I really like the effect face sheet masks give me after using them - leaves this kinda thick cushiony film on my face that lasts through the night.
Wondering if any hydrating serums can give the same effect since a sheet mask every day is kinda expensive. My skin is sensitive and also can’t take niacinamide if that narrows it down somewhat. Thanks for the help
