Routine Help

Can anyone suggest a good korean skincare with retinol?

“I received this product for free from Picky and The Skin House in exchange for my honest review.” 

I was excited to try this product as I’d been dealing with dehydrated skin lately. I use this essence right after cleansing. I love applying it directly with my palm. It has a very lightweight and watery texture that provides deep hydration. My skin absorbs it easily and it doesn't leave a sticky residue. This essence works great for my skin in helping maintaining hydration and keeping my skin looking plump and moisturized. I didn't get any skin irritation using this essence, as it's suitable with sensitive/acne prone skin. Still worth a try. 

However, for those in their 20s, I feel like this is a great daily essence, especially during the day because of its lightweight texture.

This essence is clear in colour and has a slight fragrance. I quite like the scent as it's not too much. My first impression of it is that it was more comfy and lightweight than I had initially thought it was gonna be. It's literally like water that absorbs quickly into the skin! I love that it doesn't leave my skin feeling sticky, and I quite liked the fragrance. As an essence, I would say that it's among the more nicer ones that I've tried. Granted that this is a drugstore product, I find it to be on par with some of the Korean essences that I have. If you're someone with more mature skin, this might be a bit too thin for you and you might want to try out something with more potent anti-ageing ingredients.

This is a lightweight moisturizer that contains Jeju Green Tea Water, which soothes sensitive skin, as well as vitamin B5 and Panthenol, which hydrates skin. It has a gel-like texture that turns watery when applied to the skin and absorbs quickly without leaving a tacky feeling. My skin looks hydrated and healthy after using it, and it’s perfect to use under makeup.

I have been using this for 1 week, but I can't say if it fades my blemishes. I will continue using this day and night to see its long term effect.

SKIN1004 Madagascar Centella Tone Brightening Boosting Toner has a divine texture that resembles water. For something that provides deep soothing care, this is definitely non-sticky! It has a gentle exfoliating action that removes dead skin cells. It leaves zero stickiness and tackiness. I didn't get any skin irritation from this toner, as it's suitable with sensitive/acne-prone skin.
