Hey pickies, I am always so absentminded where after using a serum / ampoule, I will tend to forget to screw it back tightly. Will this affect the product? 

Ps: I put them inside a cabinet and it’s not exposed to air or sunlight.

Didn’t screw products back properly

I recently bought the COSRX snail mucin essence, after 2 days of using it, my whole body developed rashes and it’s super itchy. Luckily, it didn’t irritate my face. 

So  I’ve read up some articles on snail mucin.  They said that people for a prone to allergy of the dust, they wouldn’t recommend. I didn’t know about this before purchasing it. And I’m a person who is allergic to dust. 

Have you gotten any allergy from using snail mucin?

There were a few acne popped out  which I think it’s because a lil bit heavy. 


Ceramide! Def one of my BFF ingredients. This balm has a rich creamy texture but it’s a lil heavy on oily skin during AM routine. I love it doesn’t have scent and glides smoothly on the skin. A lil bit of the balm really goes a long way. This is a best alternative for slugging.  I def recommend this balm to dry and sensitive skin peeps.

On the downside, I can feel there was a lil tightness near my cheeks but went away when I dabbed with toner. 

FIRSTLY! WHO ISN'T IN LOVE WITH THE PURPLE PACKAGING! This is one of the softest foam cleanser I've ever tried! I can literally feel the father's love on this cleansing foam! The cleanser is kind of creamy but once in contact with water, it FOAMS up so WELL!! As the foam touches my face, I instantly melt towards it. It gently touches my skin and cleanses well. It is great at removing oils and sunscreen. It smells like mild coconut and I really LOVE the scent! It is so calming and I always look forward to its scent after a tiring day. Tho it contains citric acid,  it did not cause any irritation nor purging. After 7 days of continuous usage, I managed to see that it really helps to balance my skin and less acne pops out! 

The downside is that the container is a lil too heavy 

YES YES YESS TO THIS! LOOK AT HOW HUGE THE SERUM IS! By far it is the largest serum I've ever seen! It really helps to calm my acne and I realised tat my skin texture has gotten so much better! My acne aren't that painful and red the next day. My skin gotten so smooth and my face is soft each morning! My skin is really well hydrated and moisturized. It has the same scent with the cleanser which is coconut-ish. The serum is sooo lightweight tho it has this medium viscosity consistency and spreads so evenly! It absorbs so quickly without leaving any sticky nor tacky feeling. It definitely pairs so well with the cleanser! IT'S PURRRFECT! 


This product is A BOM BOM POW!! It is lightweight and absorbed so well by my oily skin.  It glides super smoothly and did not leave any sticky nor tacky feeling. The texture is gel and has a milky appearance and it is so so soft! A lil bit of the moisturizer goes a long wayyy. It has this citrusy scent which is v refreshing and did not cause any irritation. 

I realised it helps my sensitive skin to be less flared up and helps in soothing  it. I have several close comedones on my forehead, and after applying, they literally disappear! OMG such a holy grail! It def gave enough hydration to my skin. Besides, my hormonal acnes are not popping as frequent after incorporating this gem. 

 


As for the pore size, nothing much can be commented as the time was a lil short to notice as I only use it 1x per week. I would definitely prefer a tube packaging such it will be more hygienic and convenient.

Clay masks gang! Hands up! 

This clay mask is super super soft and gentle on skin. Tho it contains glycolic acid, it didn’t irritate my sensitive skin. After the 10 minute mark, it is indeed moist and did not dry my skin out! Please do not leave your clay mask till complete dry! 

There is a subtle scent, but I couldn’t pinpoint what scent is that . It is calming and soothing but sensitive skin might wanna take note of it.
