Retinol Support ✊💦

Products I heavily relied on while I was starting my retinol journey. These products are moisturizing and calming which helped a lot with my purging.

Advanced Snail 92 All-in-One Cream

amazing moisturizer to sandwich for retinol. i relied on this a lot when using retinol for the first time; especially since my skin became drier and more sensitive

Packaging: This product came in a 100 ml plastic tub and a metal lid. It also had a hygiene tab. To be honest, I didn't really like the packaging of this product since the product itself is gloopy and it just makes a lot of mess. Texture: The texture is a gel-type cream. A little goes a long way. It also has a cooling effect on the skin. It's not too sticky and greasy. Mosy importantly, it doesn't clog the pores. What I like: The product is very moisturizing. And after using it for 3 and a half months, I noticed my skin getting plumper and smoother. It's also lightweight so it looks good under makeup. What I didn't like: The packaging. I would have preferred if it was kept in a pump bottle instead for easier application Would I purchase again? Yes. Once I'm finished. Would I recommend? Yes!! Definitely.

💯 𝘛𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘪𝘴 𝘮𝘺 𝘏𝘎 𝘮𝘰𝘪𝘴𝘵𝘶𝘳𝘪𝘻𝘦𝘳 𝘢𝘴 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘮𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵!! Texture & Color: slightly-thick white cream with tiny flakes/capsules Packaging: comes with easily squeezable-white-plastic-tube Finish: Velvety with no noticeable shine to it 𝙃𝙤𝙬 𝙄 𝙪𝙨𝙚 𝙞𝙩: I use a generous pea-sized amount during day time but I like to slugg a thick layer of it at night 𝘼𝙥𝙥𝙡𝙞𝙘𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣: The consistency is rich & a bit gritty at first but it melts in nicely and doesn't leave a tacky finish. It sinks in easily while being occlusive & hydrating enough for my dry skin 𝐏𝐫𝐨'𝐬 ▫️Works well under sunscreen & makeup ▫️Nourish & moisturize my skin w/o making me look oily/greasy ▫️Doesn't feel heavy or sticky on my skin ▫️Kinda has that pore 'blurring' effect which I really like ▫️For retinoid users(like me) this is an amazing moisturizer that will help buffer the dryness and flakiness that comes with using retinoid ▫Effective for strengthening my skin barrier ▫Always leaves my face perfectly moisturized & supple in the morning ▫Fragrance, essential oil, alcohol, & cruelty free ▫Great value! A whopping 200ml for $11-$14.51 (500-700Php),lasted me for about 3½ months!

A very good non-stripping cleanser. comes out like a paste with matcha leave flakes and has a medium foam when rubbed with water. Tested it with 2 PH strips and gives a PH of 5.0 to 5.5 which great. Perfect to use daily even twice daily. Does not leave you that tight feeling after washing. Rinses well without any residue Has a typical fragrance free plasticky scent to it which I personally dont mind

I've been using this everyday for the past month and I'm really loving the effects it has on my skin!! It's very moisturizing and soothing. And I've also recently started to pair this with the ordinary niacinamide and my skin got less red and tightened my pores. Also it's really budget-friendly considering that the product has 500 ml!!
