So I’ve read most products, once opened, should be used within 6 months to 1 year (depending on the product).
My question is does anyone end up actually using them up in that time frame? Or do you use them past that time? Are they still effective? Is that more of a ‘suggestion’? 
I have so many products there’s no way I could use them all up within that amount of time once opened. I don’t want to be wasteful or use products that are no longer working.

Expirations and usage

I’ve heard both that you CAN mix your sunscreen with your moisturizer and that you CANT mix it with your moisturizer because with becomes less effective? Or that some people skip their moisturizer all together and only use sunscreen for hydration. 

What’s the best method?

mixing sunscreen

Someone just mentioned this in another post- Can someone explain this wet skin process? This is the first I’ve heard of it!

So you can spray thermal water (or a toner?) before each step of your skincare routine to help the products absorb? Or it’s just before the moisturize step?

Wet Skin Moisturizing

Please give me your best product recommendations for hyperpigmentation. Also best combination of products to use. Together. Bonus if it’s also anti-aging. 

I use a variety of products but so far I’ve found that Holy Snails Shark Sauce has been the most effective. 
TIA

hyperpigmentation and anti-aging

What is your holy grail for hyperpigmentation? 
Can you recommend specific products, routines, usage etc. 
(For lightening it. I already use a ton of sunscreen for prevention!) 
I’ve managed to lighten mine somewhat. It just can’t seem to get it completely gone. I don’t have sensitive skin so I can try anything

holy grail for hyperpigmentation

I received this product for free from Picky and HueCalm in exchange for my honest review. 
I used this as my oil cleanser for a week. 
I loved this oul cleansing balm. It smells wonderful. You only need to use a very small amount so this jar will last quite awhile. It removed all my make up and felt very hydrating. I will continue ie to use it as part of my daily skincare routine.

I did not experience anything bad with this product

Very light, almost watery and no real scent. Applies smoothly and absorbs quickly. I used it both mornings and evenings while on vacation and for a week or two after. I have normal skin which is not sensitive so that wasn’t an issue, however I would say that based on what I experienced this product would work well for someone with combination&#47;oily and&#47;or sensitive skin as well.  Felt soothing to the skin and I love the glass bottle and dropper. Feels so fancy! And it’s large- 100ml so it will last a long time.

I found no bad wualities or side effects from this product

I used this product for over a week and liked it. I didn’t see a dramatic change but it was only a week. It was light and worked well into my daily routine. I plan to continue using it and anticipate good results. Cosrx is a davorite brand of mine.

I received this product for free from Picky and Touch in Sol in exchange for my honest review.
I’ve been using this Touch In Sol Pretty Filter Icy Sherbet Primer for over a week. I apply it in the morning after my skincare routine and before my makeup. 
It has a light, silky texture and applies smoothly and gives a cooling effect. It helped to minimize the appearance of my pores, felt hydrating and the rest of my makeup applied and lasted longer when I used this first. A little goes a long way so I didn’t need to use much and this jar will last awhile. 
Overall I really like this product and will continue to use it daily. 

The space that the syringes take up. They are cute and fun to use and its nice that they are essentially ‘single-use’ however they take up a lot of room. It’s the only draw back about thisnproduct that I found. 

I received this product for free from Picky and SUR.MEDIC in exchange for my honest review of the Super Glutathione 100 Bright Ampoule Whitening Essence. 
I’ve been using this ampoule now for about 5 days, morning and evening after my serum and before my moisturizer. It applies smoothly and absorbs quickly. I don’t have sensitive skin but it seems very mild so it could be okay for anyone who does to use. The syringes are fun and I like that it keeps the product fresh and somewhat ‘single-use’ however they do take up more space than just one bottle would - something I have to be conscious of due to lack of space. 
Each syringe has enough product for about 2-3 applications so you get quite a bit just from one box. There is no scent to it at all and it has a milky appearance and is somewhat thicker than a serum but less so than a gel. 
It has Glutathione 100TM which is supposed to brighten skin- I haven’t used it long enough to notice that effect yet but plan to use the remainder of the box to see how it works. It does make my skin soft and glowing. 
Overall
I would recommend this to anyone who wants to brighten and smooth their skin.
