Hey guys! I am curious whether you have a brand that you would NEVER buy from again, or a particular product line that you absolutely dislike or something. For me it’s the brand FRESH. I’ve tried bunch of their products: their cult fav kombucha facial treatment essence (did absolutely nothing for my dry skin), soy face cleanser and the strawberry exfoliating face wash (was super harsh on my skin, and just irritated it to no end),  black tea overnight mask (sooooooo thick! It takes a lot of time and effort just to spread it around on the face, and it just never absorbs or goes away, and makes your skin feel so heavy!), rose deep hydration toner (it feels good on the skin while you’re applying it, BUT does nothing in terms of actual hydration), black tea firming eye cream (does not meet the expectations for the price point and the claims), sugar face polish (sooooooo drying and harsh), etc (Bunch more lol).  The only two products that had somewhat pleasant results were the Rose hydration mask and the Rose cream. I kept going back trying to justify their cult status and hoping to find something that could work on my skin, and just gave up on the whole brand lolz. I would love to hear other people’s experience with other brands. Thank you! 🤗🤗🤗

Let’s talk abt brands that you don’t like

Hey guys! I love the Picky app & already followed them on all the social media platforms, and I especially love the app & the Youtube videos they post on skincare. I’ve learned so much from them. I log in every day to my Picky app, and just see what’s up, and post reviews, and read & watch new infos. So, naturally I’ve wanted to kind of explore the possibility of becoming a member of the Picky Squad. I’ve read the whole FAQ page dedicated to PS & SPS, but couldn’t figure out how to actually start the process. I’ve accumulated more than 10 thousand points & have posted more than 5 reviews with videos & photos (from what I understood they were the qualifiers). I do understand that the team select members manually & there is a rigirous selection process. I am just wondering whether there is anything I can contribute to qualify more I guess. Thank you so much! 🤗🤗🤗

Picky Squad - how to become a member?

I received this product for free from Picky and Acwell in exchange for my honest review.

I absolutely adore this Licorice Cleansing Toner from Acwell. At first I thought it was just a toner, but it also acts a mild cleanser after your main cleansing. I have very dry skin and I am very careful at choosing the product to use, cause some toners just dry my skin even further after cleansing. But this amazing pH Balancing Toner was exactly what I needed to add in my routine. I use it right after I wash my face, and my skin feels so relaxed and hydrated. It also prepa my skin for the subsequent products really well! I even noticed how my essence, serums and moisturizers started getting absorbed faster and better. I would definitely recommend this amazing toner to anyone whose skin needs a little extra love. It is very lightweight, and does not have any overwhelming fragrance, so it is absolutely perfect for my dry and at times sensitive skin. My skin have been a bit irritated and had red patches all over, but as soon as I switched my usual micellar water to this Acwell cleansing toner, my skin immediately felt less irritated. Overall, I really liked the cleansing toner, cause my skin felt clean after using it without feeling stripped off of its natural oils. I think it’s because the product is pH 5.5 which is ideal for dry and sensitive skin types. I would definitely recommend this Acwell cleansing toner, and thinking of trying more products from the brand.

The droper is not very comfy to use as in you can’t get the product out of the bottle without extra time, additional help and patience. 

Skin1004 has once again exceeded expectations with their HYALU-CICA BLUE SERUM. As a loyal user of their products, I was thrilled to try this serum, and it did not disappoint. The consistency is simply divine - a perfect blend of liquid and gel that absorbs effortlessly into my skin, providing the hydration my dehydrated skin craves. Like all Skin1004 products, the ingredients are top-notch.

However, I must echo a sentiment that many users may share: the dropper could use some improvement. It's a bit uncomfortable to use, especially with thicker serums like this one. Despite this minor inconvenience, I've found a workaround because the serum itself is worth the effort. I hope Skin1004 considers tweaking the packaging for a more seamless experience.

Overall, I highly recommend the HYALU-CICA BLUE SERUM to anyone seeking radiant, hydrated skin. Just be prepared to get creative with the dropper!


THE SAEM's Iceland Hydrating Collagen Eye Stick is such an amazing product. I was a bit incredulous at first about putting balm around my eyes, but it was susrprisingly easy to apply. You don’t even have to touch the product. The Collagen Eye Stick has the prettiest pink’ish hue, and it proved to be an effective addition to my skincare routine. I put it on as part of my nighttime routine, and by morning the skin around my eyes looked less puffy, and way more rested. It has a very faint scent to it, not overpowering at all. You only need very small amount of the product each time, and for the price point, it’s a great and very economical product. I would definitely recommend it to anyone who wants to find cost effective yet beneficial skincare product. The SAEM brand has so many options to choose from, I’m trying the whole Iceland series next!


I take 1-2 servings of collagen every single day, but they usually come in tasteless powder form, so I need to mix them with something to get my daily dose. Ownist's Triple Collagen was just the BEST collagen drink I’ve ever tried. It looks and tastes exactly like orange juice concentrate, and is such a yummy way to get your fix of beauty. Collagen put on your skin doesn’t do anything, but collagen ingested can work wonders for your overall health, well-being and skin elasticity. I absolutely loved the taste, the packaging and the ingredients of this wonderful product. It even has hyaluronic acid, elastin & vitamin C - all components of a beautiful, healthy skin. I’m ordering more on Amazon, and going to stock up on them. I would definitely recommend! 

I absolutely love this sunscreen. It is perfect for dry skin, doesn’t feel heavy, and doesn’t have a white caste. It feels so light, and absorbs super fast, leaving the skin looking hydrated throughout the day. I would definitely recommend this wonder sunscreen.
