Happy International Women’s Day to all of the beautiful ladies and to those who consider themselves as one here in the Picky Community!! ❤️

Being a woman in a society who continously question our capacities, limits, and even the way we choose to present ourselves is definitely hard. But I hope that we never forget how amazing, capable, and beautiful we all are; and how worthy and deserving we are of the things we aspire of having. And remember that we are all of that not only for today but for every second of everyday. Always remember that we’re women and WE CAN. 

I root for you all!! ❤️❤️❤️

> However, I think this does not lather enough. I even tried not putting any water on it and just used the water left in my hands after damping my face but that still seems too much for this powder to foam up. 
> There is also more space than products inside the bottle of this. 
> Additionally, this failed to address my blackhead and whitehead concerns.
>Lastly,  if you have extremely sensitive skin, don’t use this everyday or leave it on your face for too long because like me, you could get a mild tingling sensation around your cheek and eye area. 

> As someone who has oily/sensitive skin, I can attest that this one is really gentle as this did not cause me irritation nor breakouts. 
> This is also non-drying and hydrating. This did not give my skin that tight feeling after every wash, instead it leaves it feeling soft, smooth and refreshed. 
> This is fragrance-free but I  think it smells really amazing. I’m not a fan of matcha but this one is almost so tempting to taste (but ofc i didn’t do that, okay) 
> Moreover, this is handy and requires very little maintenance. I can carry it during trips without worrying about spillage. I can leave it anywhere around the house without worrying about contamination. 
> I also love how I can use this for multiple functions. Apart from a face cleanser, I also love it for exfoliating my scalp.


It might be too gentle for those who are very used to lip scrubs plus it tastes awful 🥵

Marketed as a gentle exfoliant, this lip scrub comes in a pretty 20g glass jar and is formulated with said ultra-fine sugar to lightly buff away flakes and dryness and honey to smoothen the lips for flawless color application.

As someone who uses harsher tools like a toothbrush to remove the flakes on her lips, I have to admit that I didn’t like this at first. I thought the sugar was too fine and was not exfoliating enough plus it tastes awful. However, upon giving it a couple more tries, I learned to appreciate its gentleness because at least it does not scratch or even scar my lips and it’s not drying even if you don’t moisturize your lips after. Overall, it’s a pretty decent product that ppl with sensitive lips or skin will surely love.

I just hope it can come in bigger size, I mean like atleast 50ml because I easily consumed it all

If you think Vitamin C is already the endgame, well, think again because Jumiso’s All Day Vitamin Brightening and Balancing Serum has more to offer. This non-water-based serum is the renewed and upgraded version of Jumiso’s now-discontinued Drop the Vita C Facial Serum. It boasts 86.14% Vitamin Tree Extract and 20,000 ppm or 2% Niacinamide to help balance and brighten up the skin. Apart from these, it also contains other amazing ingredients such as Hyaluronic Acid—Sodium Hyaluronate, Centella Asiatica, Chamomilla Recutita Flower Extract, and Panthenol.

As someone with sensitivity issues and is new to Vitamin C, I appreciated that this serum is not a concentrated C-serum. I think this will make a great Vitamin-C starter; more appropriate for teenagers and much more budget-friendly since it can be used both in morning and night.  Moreover, I love that this is super lightweight and not sticky because if it isn’t, using it here in a humid country would have been such a hassle. Meanwhile, I also noticed that my red spots start to lighten and few have even faded after I used this together with the wash-off mask. But above all, my most favorite experience with this facial serum is the fact that it made my skin look radiant even if I don’t have enough sleep.

I don’t really think it’s bad because you really get what you pay for this, however as a student it’s quite hard to maintain this especially that a bottle of this can only last a month.

Been using this product for quite some time now and each day I notice how bright and supple my skin is compare to before. Before I hate really seeing my face in the morning because my face tends to produce lots of oils when I sleep but through this serum and the moisturizer from the same exact line, I now wake up fresh and radiant. Also, this serum is  super lightweight but still so nourishing. Aside from this, it’s also it smells super nice and it’s very gentle to the skin.

I don’t really have issues about this product but I hope they could formulate a lotion type of this bc I think this is too light for people with drier skin. 🤗

Been using this product for months now and I might say that it really works wonders to my skin. It gives me that rosy glow and healthier looking skin. It also fast-absorbent but still hydrating. ❤️
