Wanted to try out toner pads instead of regular toners. Which ones are your favourite?

Toner Pad recommendation

I want to add a cushion foundation to my makeup routine (which currently only consists of mascara and a liquid blush).
But as a low maintenance make up girl I'm a little lost in how to find the right shade when ordering online without having to buy every single shade to try out at home. 
I know I could go into a shop and ask, but my local shop doesn't have Korean foundations and I'm too anxious to ask. 😬

This is probably make up 101 but I never bothered to get into it, so I'm really clueless.
Any advice, pointers or tricks are welcome. 🥰

I thought about getting a cushion foundation & concealer from Clio but any other Korean brand recommendations are welcome too.

How do I find the right foundation shade?

Hi all,
My aunt was getting interested in trying Korean Skincare Brands. She's in her late 50's and I'm unsure which brands and products to recommend as her skin is different to mine. She's has oily skin and always struggled with larger pores. 

I'm looking for a simple routine (cleanser, serum, moisturizer, sunscreen) or pointers what to look out for. 
Any products or brand recommendations suitable for "aged" skin is welcome. 

thank you 😊

Please tell me your favourite spf with a matte finish that doesn't irritate or pill. 
Or any spf where the glowy/dewy finish isn't too heavy. 

I want to buy a new one soon but need suggestions

your favourite matte spf

I need to buy a new eye cream very soon. I'm currently using the Isntree eye cream in the morning and the Some By Mi eye cream in the evening and am quite happy with both. I thought of re-purchasing them but wanted to look for other options. I have very sensitive skin around my eyes, that often reacts to new creams, that's why I want to hear from others and their experience, rather than buying just any. 

Which eye cream is your favourite? Why is it your favourite?

Excited to hear about your opinion and suggestions.🥰

It did leave my skin greasy at the end of the day.
I don't think it's terrible, but not quite what I'm looking for in a sun stick.


YADAH's Oh My Sun Stick didn't pill, didn't sting my eyes or irritate my skin and didn't break me out. No whitecast or chalky feeling.
It's easy to reapply throughout the day and has a glowy/dewy finish.

Worth a try for Dry to Normal Skin Types.🌿

Stung my eye area in combination with my physical sunscreen (no issues while using my chemical sunscreen tho)

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

It's a great wrinkle care eye cream that helps lift and firm skin. It’s formulated with 92% Snail Mucin, Collagen, and Black Bean Extract to moisturize, nourish, and improve skin elasticity. It has a fresh finish suitable for even acne prone skin. 

It smells fresh (if that is a smell?) but it isn’t overpowering and has that cool stringy texture that comes from the Snail Mucin. It applies nicely and absorbs quickly only feeling slightly sticky but has a cooling effect that feels very refreshin and suitable for your eye area as well as your neck and face. 

My very sensitive eye area tolerated the change of eye cream well and it didn’t sting when using it. That being said I did have some sort of reaction when I applied my physical sunscreen on top at the end of my skincare routine.
It only happened when using my physical sunscreen, my chemical sunscreen and using the eye cream during my evening routine went absolutely fine with no stinging or any other issues. 

I really like using the eye cream, especially in the evenings. It feels nourishing and refreshing without feeling too rich or too sticky. 

It’s available on $18.50 on coxir.com, 10,90€ on YesStyle and $8.99 on Stylevana (currently on Sale)

The Mugwort Pore Clarifying Wash Off Pack
 has been a bit of a lifesaver. 

My skin is very sensitive and I struggle to exfoliate regularly without drying out my skin or compromising my skin barrier.

The wash off mask is very gentle and doesn't dry out my skin but has significantly improved my skin complexion. It helps clearing impurities and soothes inflamed areas. 
It's cruelty-free, vegan, paraben free and doesn't use artificial colours or fragrance.

Once I finish my current tub I'll definitely repurchase.

The Black Snail Collagen Cream 
includes Black Snail extract, Collagen and Black Soybean Extract. It offers anti-aging effects by reducing wrinkles, moisturizing and smoothing the skin, improving elasticity and strengthening the skin barrier. Snail Mucin helps to protect the skin from damage, dryness & UV rays.

It has a fresh smell and an amazing stringy texture due to the snail mucin. It feels cooling and absorbs quickly, leaving the skin feeling refreshed and moisturized albeit it being slightly sticky. The skin has a lovely dewy glow afterwards and the moisturiser doesn’t feel heavy.

I’ve been using the cream once or twice a day, alternating with other moisturisers and I haven’t found anything I don’t like about it yet. My sensitive skin has had no issues with the cream and always feels nice afterwards. My skin doesn’t feel oily at the end of the day and it has helped calm some redness and strengthen my skin barrier.

The Black Snail Collagen Cream is a good staple for anyone who wants to incorporate Snail Mucin into their daily routine in form of a moisturiser. 

$14.99 on coxir.com, 15,70€ on YesStyle and $12.69 on Stylevana (currently on Sale)

The only downside is, that it's only a SPF30 and not a SPF50. As I have Vitiligo on my face I can't use the sun cream when the UV Index is very high. But it's great for cloudy or rainy days. Still 5/5 ⭐

Plodica's Watermelon Moisture Sun Cream 🍉💧☀️
(cat approved 🐱)

is a SPF30 PA++++ moisturizing sun cream. It offers effective protection against harmful UVA/UVB rays and at the same time provides the skin with intensive moisture, as it's infused with Plodica’s core ingredient: Nelumbo Nucifera Callus Culture Extract and Watermelon Extract from Haman.
It is also made with a slightly acidic formula to balance the skin without irritation marking it safe for everyday use.

It has a creamy but light texture that absorbs quickly and leaves no stickiness or white cast. It doesn't feel heavy after applying and doesn't pill. It has a cooling effect and a glowy (but not oily) finish. 

On Plodica's website it says it's suitable for dehydrated and dry skin, but I think it's suitable for all skintypes, especially sensitive skin.
Additionally it is water resistant, cruelty free, vegan, fragrance free and alcohol free.

I personally really like using the sun cream so far as the texture and the fact that it doesn't leave a white cast are a heavy plus for me.
