Hey, Picky family!

I won my first giveaway here and since I don't really use Instagram, I decided to create one to share my reviews. 

You can find me at @mikasasskin, just created the account so it will be a bit bare but I will start posting later today.

Please drop your Insta handles here, I'd love to follow you, too! Thank you for being an amazing community!

Hi Pickies!

I've been looking for a good spot treatment for cystic acne. I already use hydrocolloidal patches for my more regular acne but that's not the usual pimples I get so not very effective in general.

I don't handle benzoyl peroxide very well so was looking for other options. Anything that has worked well for you?

Thanks in advance!

Spot treatment

Hey, everyone! Has anyone tried using the powdered version of vit C? My serum is almost done and I've been meaning to try the powder for a while. 

For those who tried it: did you like it? Does it work better than serums? Any recommendations or tips? Thanks so much!

Vit C powder

The mask itself is wonderful, like I said. However, on the next day, I woke up with a little bit of redness around my right eye area. I cannot say whether it was due to the mask or not, as I do use other actives, but this was the only new product I used that day.

This could have been a bad reaction to mixing the mask with other actives but I really can&#39;t tell. I kept my routine simple the next day and it disappeared. It didn&#39;t hurt, it wasn&#39;t particularly sensitive or anything, it was just a bit red.

I still liked the mask, think it&#39;s an amazing product, and don&#39;t want to take points away from something I&#39;m really not sure was caused by the product. I would still recommend it&#39;s use but wanted to give an honest review.

I think this instantly became one of my favorite masks. The mask itself is incredibly thick for a sheet mask, it has a gelatinous feel.

The packet is FILLED with essence. I grabbed it out of the packet and it was seriously dripping essence. I put on the mask and there was still so much product left that I managed to cover my full neck. Once I removed the mask, my skin was still completely covered in essence, it took about 1min to fully absorb. I am super thankful to Abib for the amount of product they packed in this, it&#39;s not common to find sheet masks with such generous essence.

This is a 🌱 hoouttuynia cordata (heartleaf) mask, which is an amazing antioxidant, antibacterial, and anti-inflammatory ingredient. You can definitely feel a soothing, refreshing sensation on the skin upon using the mask already at the first minutes.

It is nourishing and hydrating. My skin felt wonderful after using it. This is a really solid sheet mask, I&#39;d definitely recommend it.

This product has dried my face like no other. After a couple months using it, my skin was dry like sandpaper and I have combination, pretty oily skin. I believe my sensitivity is likely to witch hazel in general, but this toner unfortunately did not work for me.

Not many good things to say, other than affordability for a decently sized bottle. I still have half a bottle left and I use it when I&#39;m in between toners, as my skin reacts well to it short term (2-3 days). It&#39;s fairly mild and goes well on my skin when it&#39;s more sensitive.

Nothing really. Just wish the bottle was a bit bigger, the bottle is very, very small.

A great hyaluronic acid serum! Very lightweight and watery, not sticky at all, and gets absorbed very easily. But you need to make sure you apply it on wet skin! My skin is more combination and has been very dry during this winter, this product has been a lifesaver!

I was having some irritation and sensitivity after overusing retinoids and this product was a lifesaver! It really soothed my skin and diminished irritation overnight. It comes with 33 masks for a really affordable price and cute tweezers to avoid contamination when pulling the masks out. The product feels very fancy! It has a lightweight texture to replace your essence so it doesn&#39;t feel overly heavy for my oilier skin.

I don&#39;t like the smell of it, it&#39;s very prominent and this product has fragrance--the strong tangerine smell isn&#39;t natural at all. The texture is a bit sticky but tends to go away once you add your essence&#47;serum.

I really love this toner! It evens out the skin texture and has really helped my hyperpigmentation. The AHA is lactic acid, so milder than most, which allows for more frequent use. It has really helped with sebaceous filaments and blackheads as well, which have become easier to extract or disappeared altogether.
