Finally bit the bullet and using the SKII essence! I was just really curious and wanted to see if it will work for me. Anyone else tried it and saw great results?? How long have you been using it before results can be noticed? Tia!

SK-II essence, is it worth it??!

Halloween is just around the corner and this is just for fun!🎃😊 WHAT IS YOUR WORST SKINCARE HORROR STORY?? like a skincare you had the worst reaction, or irritated your skin and made it itchy instantly, or acne fest after a wrong routine? 👻


‼️Disclaimer: Just for sharing, I dont intend to bash any product or brand because still YMMV (your mileage may vary) still a reminder that that specific skincare/routine may be worst for you but a gem for others!

Ok I will start, I used to overexfoliate my skin using kojic soap everyday, followed by a toner with high alcohol (eskinol from the Philippines yo!) Alas! I had the worst acne for years lol! Like my siblings would joke that if a cockroach would fall on my face, they will think they are on the moon craters. Ugh!😡

Skincare ”Horror” Stories!🎃👻

Im pretty confused as to when should i put a pimple patch for the occasional breakouts. Is it after cleanser? Toner? Or pimple treatment?? Because i also use adapalene gel. Definitely not after moisturizer because it doesnt stick anymore lol. I usually put it after cleanser after drying my face but sometimes the stickiness is gone after i put a serum or face oil. 🤷‍♀️

What part of my pm routine should i put a pimple patch??

❌ nothing much, that’s why its my holy grail exfoliating toner!

🍓 effective in removing dead skin cells
🍓mild and gentle, does not sting
🍓 a little goes a long way
🍓long term use brightened my skin and reduced post acne dark spots
🍓evens out skin tone
🍓fragrance- free
🍓 multiple use (i use it for my underarms, knees and elbows too!)
🍓economical and easily accessible in the US

Nothing much really! Just be careful because there’s so many fakes out there😔

I noticed the effects it gives to my skin even after just overnight upon using it! Was amazed how soft my face was when i woke up the next day,like.. what the?! Snail mucin is such a godsent! I use this day and night and noticed skin texture and hyperpigmentations including post acne marks lightened about after a week of using it. And lastly, when my skin gets irritated or flares up, this instantly calms it down. Couldnt say enough good stuff about this💕

👎CONS:
❌A little drying for dry- skin type pretties

🤔OVERALL RATING:
5/5⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I will always appreciate a good foaming face cleanser that effectively removes all the dirt and impurities of my face at the end of the day. 

✨Bonus points because of its skin- loving ingredients especially made for acne- prone skin and of course, with Centella Asiatica which is one of my favorite Korean skincare ingredients. I believe, the tea- trica BHA foam cleanser is worth looking forward to on your daily skincare routine. Will definitely repurchase when I run out!😊🤌👋

❌ some of the shade colors may not show up on more pigmented skin tones. The pretty shimmers will still be there though.

♣️ GLOWGASM PALETTE IN LIGHTGASM
➡️ a cruelty-free face palette featuring glow-inducing highlight, blush, and bronzer free of various chemicals and designed to provide a multi-dimensional, lit-from-within glow with customizable, seamlessly blendable shades.
🤔MY REVIEW:
✅ the shimmers were very fine and there was no gritty or glittery texture from swatching, the powder has a fine and buttery consistency.
✅ I love how it imparts an even and natural glowy look, without chunky and annoying glitters.
✅ besides the gorgeous packaging, the shades are very customizable and versatile, and can be used even on the body.


✨RATING: 5/5 
I love the texture and versatility of this palette, and it reminds me so much of the Dior glow palette but much more gorgeous packaging.


🚫CONS:
- not for layering over makeup
- May need to use separate spf underneath as it can be too thick and heavy when used too much like a regular sunblock
- May need to use a spatula as packaging is a glass jar (i use clean and sanitized fingers each time)
- Trouble blending for deeper skin tone gals
- Price is pretty expensive
