I’m curious — when did you guys join Picky?

I installed the app months back only to get free samples of the Keep Cool SPF, who would’ve thought Picky would become a part of my daily routine?

I wasn’t expecting it to be anything more than a skincare rating app or store, but it already is! 

And for that I just wanna recognize what a great app Picky is. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Aside from the amazing giveaways and events, I couldn’t help but wonder how the creators formed this community full of nice people who are willing to spare a portion of their days to write comprehensive reviews and answer questions of other skincare junkies. How?? 

It just amazes me every single time. 

A huge thank you for the creators of the app for this huge and healthy community you formed through this app! Hope it stays as positive as it is now while it keeps growing! ❤️❤️

PICKY

Waaaaaaa is this for real? 🥺 Anyone else got the email, kinda finding this one hard to believe 😳

MVP Reward

In the spirit of the season, I collaborated with Wishtrend for a holiday/end of year giveaway! 

The products included are —
☻︎ @bywishtrend 𝐺𝑟𝑒𝑒𝑛 𝑇𝑒𝑎 & 𝐸𝑛𝑧𝑦𝑚𝑒 𝑃𝑜𝑤𝑑𝑒𝑟 𝑊𝑎𝑠ℎ — this is my favorite physically exfoliator this year,  it’s a lovely cleanser and tbh I think it works for all skin types because it is mild enough not to irritate my sensitive skin

☻︎ @imfrom_global 𝑅𝑖𝑐𝑒 𝑇𝑜𝑛𝑒𝑟 — I think this one would steal a spot in your heart, whatever your skin type may be; I like how this one hydrates and brightens my dull skin

☻︎ @rovectin_global 𝐿𝑜𝑡𝑢𝑠 𝑊𝑎𝑡𝑒𝑟 𝐶𝑟𝑒𝑎𝑚 — simple and lightweight, it’s a sufficient day moisturizer - works for me when my skin was oily and even with my currently dry skin.

We will be giving all three to 2 lucky winners.  Check out link below for the mechanics! 😘

INTERNATIONAL GIVEAWAY

You guys — just in case you haven’t seen it yet, Picky and Cosrx is giving away an enourmous skincare set for the one with the most invites and I’m internally screaming. 😱

I immediately invited A LOT of friends to join that made me realize that I’m the only one OBSESSED about skincare in my different social circles to even stay in a skincare app for hours ahhaha

For my online friends I met here and on IG that I get to talk skincare with, I appreciate you extra today ‘cause I can’t even start a convo about it with my real life ‘cause they are ignoring me LMAO 

P.S. maybe for them I sound as boring as my college classmate who recites the value of pi (3.1415926535xxx) out of the blue all the time

Inviting friends

Let’s be friends on tiktok!

It doesn’t feel as calming and refreshing as my other green tea toner, and it didn’t control my sebum throughout the day. Oh and idk if it’s just me but the toner smells like soy sauce.

I had high expectations for this toner since it’s one of the most hyped products from Instree. Let’s just say I didn’t understand what the hype is all about. Don’t get me wrong, it has great ingredients and is an overall a decent toner! Very light, watery, and hydrating. I didn’t experience any irritation too. There’s just no “wow” factor for it to be hyped so much.

 I’m under the impression all skin types would appreciate this one during the summer season.

I literally went “oh wow” when I first tried this because it made my skin look dewy and glowy upon application. Skin texture has improved for me too. 

The ingredients list is screaming “youth!” It contains 88% concentrated bifida fermentation lysate, adenosine, niacinamide, and triple peptides among others for overall anti-aging. 

I’m not expecting to see my fine lines disappear as I’ve only used it for a month, but I enjoy using this at night and would definitely repurchase.

When Anua claimed these heartleaf products to be ~soothing~, they meant it. Heck, this is a splash of cold water to irritated skin and I freaking love it. 💦

— When I say watery, it is exactly that. There’s no scent, viscosity, or hue to it that it feels so much like water. The first splash already relieves redness and irritation but I like doing multiple layers of it until I feel hydrated enough, and my skin seems to just drink it all up every single time. 

The top 1 on my long list of toners is Benton’s Green Tea but Anua just stole the top spot. This is why I enjoy trying a lot of products, I keep discovering great ones!

This is the third mugwort mask I’ve tried, and I’m surprised they all work differently. 
It is clay-based, but it doesn’t dry up into a stiff layer like other clay masks. It is interestingly creamy with little crushed leaves that exfoliates the skin gently. 

After each masking session, my sebum stays at bay and my skin feels really refreshed, clean, and declogged. No cons at all! I love this one.

This cream has everything I like in a moisturizer - it is lightweight, unscented, and non-greasy. A great choice for daytime use. 

I find it fascinating that its main ingredient is 75% Lotus Water extract. Lotus flowers are known for its self-purifying abilities even when they grow in muddy water, so I believe this cream would help purify the skin for that cleaner and clearer complexion we all are striving for. ( ˘ ³˘)

Also contains Kaempferol (we love ‘em polyphenols) to help restore skin balance and provide anti-aging properties. Can’t testify on the latter though as I use other anti-aging products.
