Picky Giveaways that didn't work for you

There's a saying that dehydrated skin will try to compensate by producing more sebum, hence getting hydrated might help to reduce oiliness. By your own experience, does it work that way?

Oily skin peeps - Does using moisturizers reduce your sebum production?

The common sunscreen advice is to constantly reapply them, as they get depleted over time. But wouldn't the same logic also applies on antioxidants? Should we also reapply antioxidant constantly for best results?

Reapplying Antioxidants?

Glass bottles are few times heavier than plastic bottles. Wouldn't that translate into more fuel consumed when shipping them?

If you are only allowed to use 1 skincare brand for the rest of your life, what would it be?

Sensitive skins should avoid this. Don&#39;t use on open wounds.

Works to reduce blackheads and acne. Inexpensive.

Also appreciate that it is in wash-off form. Unlike leave-on peels, it won&#39;t risk cancelling the effect of other products when layered together.

Irreplacable product to me. Difficult to find a dupe in the market - wash-off high percentage chemical peel is  untapped by most brands. Dupes out there just can&#39;t match the affordability.

Bacteria might develop resistance to antibiotics for prolonged use.

It only targets bacteria, but there are still other causes of acne like sebum and dead skin cells.

Kills acne bacteria as an antibiotic (clindamycin).

Cosmetically friendly - Clear gel texture that doesn&#39;t leave white casts like other acne creams (benzoyl peroxide and sulphur). As a result, it doesn&#39;t discourage consistent use of it.

Not irritating - This is unlike many acne treatments that are drying and irritating, which are not friendly to dry&#47;sensitive skins.

Probably not recommended for dry and sensitive skin

Find it enjoyable when applying its foamy and creamy bubble on face

The price seems to be marked up when being compared to its official website&#39;s price in Japanese Yen.

Simple ingredient list (16 items), affordable, and lightweight gel-textured.

Contains a blend of essentially oils. While I&#39;m generally fine with essential oils, having them in a soothing product might not be the best for sensitive skins.

Easy to dispense, sinks into skin easily, feels hydrating. Not sure about the the calming claim, but its high percentage of heart leaf content makes it a decent heartleaf product to try.
