I have a quick question, in your routine you put eye cream before or after face cream? I personally use it before but I don't know if it's correct 😊

Eye cream

Hi everyone I have a question for you because you definitely have more knowledge than me about the skincare world; when I have pimples they sometimes left dark spots on my face so I'm looking for some products that reduce the pigmentation, but I also have freckles on my nose and cheeks and I love them, so I'm scared that if I use products that reduce pigmentation all over my face my freckles will fade as long as the dark spots left by pimples, is that possible?

Probably a stupid question 😅

Hi everyone! I use a lot of lip balm in stick and I hate wasting products so I wanted to find a way to use the leftover balm that is in the bottom of the little tube, I usually take out the remaining product and I put in a little pot then I mix it with a bit of sugar and I have my lip scrub 😊
Does anyone else do that? Do you have any tips not to waste some other products?

Hi! I think I won the Isntree Hyaluronic acid serum and toner giveaway from tiktok because yesterday I got a package with those products but I didn't receive any email from Picky about the winning, so I don't know the deadline, the # to use in the post and where to send the links once I made my posts 
Thanks for your help

Isntree Hyaluronic Acid giveaway

Hi everyone! Finally I was able to connect my IG profile to Picky creators but now I have some questions about the campaigns
1. How they work? I mean, you choose the campaign and if you are selected they send you the product?
2. About the cash part you can use it only to buy from Picky or you can use it however you want, for example to buy a book or something else?
3. Are there any campaigns where where you don't have to show your face but only present the product?
Thanks in advance for your help
Sorry for all the questions but I would like to know how it works and not make any mistake 😅

Personal review
This is the first essence/cream hybrid that I've tried and I'm really really liking it 🥰
I use it both in my AM and PM routine after the toner and  I think is great addition 🥰 when I pat the essence my skin feels like a mochi, it's soft, smooth and bouncy and I love it, just like a mochi at first is a tiny little bit sticky but this feeling lasts for a few seconds, just the time for the product to be fully absorbed
I was really impressed by the MARY&MAY Idebenone Blackberry Serum but this is even better to me, I love everything about it from the completely recyclable packaging to the beautiful colours 💜when you mix it it reminds me of a delicious blackberry milkshake
Since it has no fragrance and the texture is lightweight and non greasy but at the same time very moisturizing I recommend this for all skin types 💜

After this experience I can't say nothing bad about these patches, since they are literally the only ones that helped me win 😅

Personal experience
These patches adhere to the skin REALLY WELL and you can barely feel them in the skin; I'm fighting against a little face demon on my chin, I've tried every pimple product I have but it didn't want to leave, now I'm using these patches and so far it's the only product that gave me some results in this fight, after the first one the little demon was less puffy and, most important, less painful, now I'm at the third patch on the little demon and I think I won't need another one after this since the little demon is almost completely gone, besides the scar that will stay for longer (as it always happens with face demons 😑)
Not to mention that they are Vegan so for me that is always a plus 🐾🧡


The only thing I don't like about it is the smell, I don't know how to better describe it other than it smells like an old dish soap to me, fragrance is not on the ingredients list so it's nothing artificial, it's just the combination of the ingredients but my nose doesn't like it, luckily the smell doesn't stay 

Main ingredients 
10% Licorice Water, brightening effect for a clear skin
Puritox Jin, protecting skin from stress by using 4 Korean traditional medicinal plants: Peony extract (protecting skin), Licorice extract (brightening effects), Cimicifuga extract (relaxing skin), Arrowroot extract (purifying skin)
Texture and colour: it's watery but a little bit thicker than usual and it's light brown 
Personal review 
I have to be honest, I'm a little confused by this product 😅 I mean is it a cleanser or a toner? 
I tried to use it both ways; as they recommend, so I put it on toner pad and I wiped my face from the inside to the outside and then I rinsed with a little bit of water, and then as I normally use a toner which is I put it on my hands and then I pat it on my face. I prefer my way because as they recommend, even if I rinse it off, my skin stay a little bit sticky and I don't like that feeling, especially now that is super hot; probably mynway is the wrong way since they say to use it differently but for me it works better so I stay with that 😁 As a toner I quite like it, my skin absorbs it pretty fast and I don't have any undesired effects by using it, which is always a good thing! 

The only thing I don't like is the smell, I feel like it smells a little bit of alcohol even if it's not in the ingredient list, but the smell doesn't last that long, actually once the skin absorbs it you can't smell nothing.

Main ingredients 
72% Centella Asiatica Leaf Water, reduce redness and calm irritations 
10% Tea Tree Leaf Water, calm sensitive skin
6 patented fresh buds, rich in vitamins, enzymes and minerals to protect skin from external stress 

Personal review 
This cream has my favourite type of texture, gel and lightweight, it absorbs immediately and doesn't leave any sticky feeling; it's very soothing and I think it's perfect for summer since, as I said, it's super lightweight but at the same time it gives the hydration that I need, but I don't think it's "strong" enough for dry skin.
This was the last product of the mini set and overall I'm pleased with all of them, I think I will buy the full size of each one when I need them 😄



The fact that since I have a set the size is mini, jokes aside there is nothing bad 

Main ingredients
🌿 Tea tree leaf water 67%, anti-inflammatory and anti-microbial properties
☘️ Centella Asiatica leaf water 19,5%, fade acne scar
🌱 Patented 6-sprout extract: sprout wheat, bok choy, broccoli, alpha alpha, radish sprout and lettuce, deep moisture and nutrition 

Texture, colour and scent: it's a light green serum very watery, the colour is natural and it has no added synthetic fragrance 

🍃Personal review🍃
In this period I have three acne scars that are pretty dark, It's just a week that I'm using this serum and I'm using it in combination with Tiam ac spot cream (review soon 😁), so far I noticed just a light fading but when I have these types of dark spots usually takes quite a bit to be gone so I'm happy even with this light result so far. In these days the skin around my nose was very irritated because of the cold weather but it's way better now by using this serum in combination with the the centella essece from Mixsoon
Overall I'm happy with this serum, I don't usually expect immediate results so I bet that with more time I will see that those dark spots will fade even more. For the fragrance it is super super light, sometimes I don't even smell nothing so I think that even someone that has problems with scented products can use this serum with no worries.
