Hello, everyone! After being a hermit for months I'm back with something I'm really excited to share. Our mockboards did take all my social time away and I only have my books, family and friends to keep me sane lately. But I do have time to squeeze in some skin care shopee-ing and research lol. A quick shoutout to Liah Yoo aka queen of skin care ♥ Her videos are A++++
D E A R K L A I R S SUPPLE FACE TONER
- Hydrates my face and makes my skin soft all day! I used only my hands in applying this by patting the product onto my face.
- Alcohol and paraben free! If you read the ingredients list, there's no harmful chemical that is included. I have to give props to SkinCarisma for providing a comprehensive and informative ingredients analyzer feature.
- It is not as watery or runny as the other toners. I am used to watery texture for toners, but this does have a viscous texture that might feel a little tacky for first timers, but don't fret! because the product is easily absorbed by the skin and won't leave any sticky and tacky feeling.
- It is Korea's most-raved about toner since 2015-ish. It's popular for its maximum hydration and pH balancing. Toners are essential part of a skin care routine. I can't go on a day without applying a toner 😍
M I S S H A TIME REVOLUTION ESSENCE
- Very very very hydrating!
- It also has an active ingredient which is Niacinamide that brightens the skin and controls the oil production. If Vitamin C is too irritating for your skin, Niacinamide is a good substitute because it's more stable.
- It hasn't made tremendous effect on my skin but I feel like I'm not that oily as much compared to when I just use toners and moisturizers!
- Alcohol and paraben free!
- Makes my skin glow! Even if it's not the Korean dewy-ish glow, I can still feel like there's a subtle glow which indicates that my skin is getting healthier. I have a long way to go, but I know it's changing hehe
E L U J A I PROPOLIS AMPOULE
- SKIN SAVER!!!!!!!!!!! Chant with me "SKIN SAVER! SKIN SAVER!"
- If you are like me who has stubborn hyper-pigmentation and uneven skin tone, this will tick off those problems.
- Not sticky or tacky. You can use this as spot treatment or you can pat this around your face.
- It comes with a dropper so it makes everything more efficient.
- Its main ingredients are propolis and myrhh oil which are natural medicine/herbs in Korea. I'm planning to feature this on a solo post so I could talk more about it because it deserves the attention *wink wink*
I N N I S F R E E CLAY PORE MASK
- It claims to control sebum production, tighten pores, deep clean and exfoliate your skin.
- For me, the purify and deep cleansing are the major use of this product.
- It has a cooling effect on the face! I was surprised with this factor tbh hahaha.
- The smell might not be my favorite but I can look past it. The smell isn't overpowering when applied on the face.
- I only use this on my t-zone area since it's the most problematic part when it comes to oil and sebum production.
- I can't say it's my holy grail yet, I still feel that it lacks wow effect.
This is my first post forthis blog series! I'm looking forward to share more of my skincare shenanigans in the future!
