‘One skincare line’ or ‘Mix and match’?

My sister has dry/sensitive skin, and she was asking me if she should use a particular line from a brand or curate her routine from various brands. I told her that it is better to mix and match (but of course, it is coming from someone who has oily/sensitive skin) while she thinks it is safer to use one skin-care line. •Which do you think would work? •Which do you prefer? She doesn't have a skincare routine at the moment and is planning to buy one. So any recommendations for her dry/sensitive skin

I would suggest mix and match but since it's her first time, she doesn't know what she's allergic too and what works for her, with the plethora of skincare it's difficult to find what's best for you. I would suggest trial kits, so even if the products doesn't work that well, it's in a mini size and you can just buy the full size if you like it, and kits are ment to work together. Products i suggest for dry/sensitive skin: Pyunkang yul kit Cosrx snail kit Dear Klaire's ( I'm not sure if they have kits ) Or just buy mix and match minis

I do have skincare that have fragrance. It's fine as long as the fragrance is at the bottom of the ingredients list.

I do mix and match coz sometimes some products in the line doesn't work well with my skin. For your sister I recommend Illiyoon Ceramide Ato Moisturizer. It is really heavy for me but my brother really loves it as he have dry and flaky skin

Yes! Although the line in a brand is great, some products just doesn't work.

it’s fine to mix and match as long as you’re paying attention to the ingredients, you don’t want to end up using a bunch of different products together that have high percentages of the same actives.

Yes, she should keep it simple since she is new to skincare.

Mix and match should be fine and I recommend a minimalist routine too!
