i cant think of anything! if you don&#39;t like tea tree oil or the scent you might not like it. Or if you&#39;re accustomed to stronger actives.

I have been using the @somebymi.official_us AHA BHA PHA 30 Days Miracle Toner for almost a year now and am ready to share my thoughts. I know when this product first released, many people thought it was gimmicky and harmful for the brand to encourgage daily exfoliation. Now this might sound terrible, but in my opinion, with how low the amounts of acids are, I think using this to exfoliate daily would be fine if your skin can handle it (even though I don&#39;t use it this way).

This toner contains 0.05% AHA, 0.01% BHA, and 0.01% PHA, 2% niacinamide, and 1% tea tree water. As you can see, the percentage of acids are very low. However, I am not someone who has a lot of experience with exfoliants, so using a couple layers of this once or twice a week, I saw great improvements in terms of evening of texture, brighening hyperpigmentation, and helping the congestion in my pores. Doing just one layer, I do see very minor effects, but for nights dedicated to exfoliating, I enjoy layering. 

One thing that I really credit to this product is the mitigation of my hormonal acne. I noticed my hormonal acne was more infrequent and when it did come, it was smaller and would leave faster. 

The texture of this product is very watery and easy to apply. It has a tea tree scent that I love and don&#39;t find overpowering. I&#39;ve never experienced irritation with this product, even when I applied it under my tretinoin, which is very risky, but just proves my point on how gentle this product is for me.

The expiration date is 6 months only so you have to make sure to use it before it expires.

This product is packed full of so many wondeful ingredients, such as snail secretion, niacinamide, aloe, bee venom, arbutin, azelaic acid, beta glucan, adenosine, panthenol, allantoin, and a whole bunch of plant extracts. 

At first, I simply thought this was just a hydrating gel, but I&#39;ve been using this product pretty consistently for a month now, and I really enjoy it! While this product is hydrating, I think what this product has really done for me is strengthen my skin. My skin feels overall much healthier and more resilient. I can&#39;t be 100 percent sure, but I noticed that my skin is breaking out much less, isn&#39;t experiencing that super dehydrated winter skin, and doesn&#39;t get irritated from exfoliating or retinol. It also helps me move on from skin troubles quicker too. 

Another thing I really love about this product is its texture! Having seen the cosrx snail mucin, I was hesitant about trying snail because of the goopy texture. However, this product is a super spreadable, smooth, lightweight gel texture that just feels so nice on your face without any trace of stickiness! 

I got mine at Yesstyle for around 13 dollars, which I consider a good price for 2oz&#47;60ml. You can also find this on Jolse, Stylevana, Stylekorean, and Amazon.

While I really enjoy this product, I can&#39;t justify the high price tag of $42USD. It feels like a great but basic moisturizer and at the end of the day, it isn&#39;t super special. However, I also prefer not to spend a lot on moisturizers as they are the most basic step of my routine. I also wish they could release a fragrance free version as I think some people would not enjoy it.

This product is targeted for mature skin and it is intended to hydrate skin, improve skin elasticity,  and reverse the signs of aging. This moisturizer has key ingredients of glycerin, niacinamide, cica extract, and a few specially patented ingredients meant to target pore care and reduce dark spots. 

The claims in this product are quite bold but they are semi-backed up by clinical trials conducted by the Korea Institude of Dermatogical Sciences that show the product soothing users&#39; skin, tightening pores, and reducing the appearances of freckles and wrinkles within three weeks. (I say semi-backed up as we don&#39;t know how many of the 21 testers who participated actually found the product to be effective, as no percentage was given.)

In my experience, I have not seen as drastic results as the those who participated in the trials, but I don&#39;t have mature skin. Even though this cream is not targeted towards me, I still really enjoy it. It is a thicker, more emollient cream that I really enjoy using at night. It sinks in nicely and locks in all of the hydration I need during the night and leaves just a slightly dewy finish. It has a moderate flowery perfume smell but I don&#39;t mind as it dissipates quite quickly. I have been really enjoying this moisturizer during the transition between winter and spring, as I like to still use a rich moisturizer at night but prefer ones not as thick or emollient as I usually gravitate towards in the winter. I also like how I can use this during the day under a more matte sunscreen.

Absolutely nothing! Maybe if we could get a bigger size and they change the packaging bc the opening gets gunked up.

I really enjoy the niacinamide serum ($7&#47;1oz&#47;30ml). Having just finished The Ordinary&#39;s, the juxtaposition between the two was further heightened. Even though both have 10% niacinamide, TIL formula also has HA, squalane, panthenol, and other great ingredients to minimize any potential irritation. Unlike TO serum, this one doesn&#39;t foam up, and because it doesn&#39;t have zinc, doesn&#39;t dry&#47;mattify my skin, as well as irritate my skin, which the TO serum sometimes did.

I notice slight tingling on my face when I use this product. I bought all of this in September. I opened the 15% Vitamin C and EGF ($15&#47;1oz&#47;30ml) in January (4.5 months) and the product had already oxidised. The product has a PAO of 6 months, but the fact that it had already gone bad before opening is really irritating. I reached out and they said tbe change of color is normal but I highly doubt it. The oroduct is originally clear but turned yellow when I opened it.

I was unable to really try this product as the product had already oxidized before I opened it. I use it occasionally for my face and back but I haven&#39;t noticed any results, however I recognize I am not a consistent user. The packaging is really good tho.
