I just realised Picky is hosting so many giveaways that I’ve been meaning to try yet too broke to purchase all at once 😭. (Cuz I’m just a college girl who is yet to start earning her own money)

Fingers crossed to wining the giveaways (though I don’t win most of the time🤦🏻‍♀️🥲)

Update: 
Found out I won the commonlab serum giveaway 🎊. Don’t forget to check your email picky fam 🌸

another giveaway 🎊

Saw a post online saying that micellar water can help reduce blackhead and whiteheads. 

Is this true? I have blackheads on my nose and I’ve tried the cosrx AHA/BHA toner which doesn’t help much. Really hope something else could help with this problem.

how to get rid of blackheads

Does your skincare routine includes using product that has ceramid or other form of probiotics? 

If so, please do recommend some. 🥺

products that contain ceramide/ probiotics/ prebiotic

This has been bugging me for so long. 

Everytime I apply a product, be it toner/serum/moisturiser, my skin would feel so sticky. It’s like my skin is not absorbing the product. 

Is it because I’m using more than what is needed? 

Feel free to share your thoughts!

Sticky products

I have used the cosrx aha bha toner before. I used it on a daily basis and switched to another product because I feel like I’m not seeing any results. Recently, I found out it’s actually an exfoliator 😳🤭.  

I poured few drops on a cotton and wiped it a cross my face. I did soak cotton pad with it and let it sit on my face for few minutes. Did I use it in a wrong way?

How do I use it as an exfoliator?

Please help 😳😳

beginner to cosrx

Not a big con becuase this ampoule is not market as a hydrating serum but its not hydrating enough in an airconditioned environment. 

I received this prosucr for free from picky and BYECOM. 

Formulated with Centella asitica to soothe skin, human Oligo peptide to provide the vitality of the tired skin, and azadiracta indica to help manage troubled skin, this ampoule aims to moisturise, soothe and protect skin from the outside environment.

This ampoule has a natural transparent sky blue colour in a watery consistency. I apply a thin layer of this ampoule to my skin and it doesnt absorb well into my skin becuase I often find my skin to be sticky after application, but sometimes the sticky residue doesnt happen. I suppose this is due to the external circumstances and not the fault of the ampoule.

In terms of its soothing claim, there is no noticeable soothing on the sensitive area around my nose area from short term use but I find that the tiny little bumps around my nose area has reduced! 

I find that the ampoule is generally hydrating enough but when I’m in an air-conditioning environment all day I need to top up my skin hydration level with a separate hydrating serum. I felt that this is a much needed add-on step. 

I’d recommend this to anyone whose priority is to soothe their troubled skin.

Im not sure if its my problem or the eye cream but it doesnt seem to absorb into my skin

It has a milky cream like texture and scent free. It doesn’t leave my under eye greasy. Since I’ve only use this for a short while, it’s understandable that I don’t see any improvement in reducing hyperpigmentation/ dark circle but I have no complaint for this eye cream since skin does have any negative reactions to it. I’ll definitely finish the two mini-s in this set.

You can find it on stylekorean.com (https://www.stylekorean.com/brands/4/acwell?T_Brand=&tag=mkt_tryme_acwell&utm_source=blog&utm_medium=image&utm_campaign=mkt_tryme_acwell&utm_id=mkt_tryme_acwell )

Soft and plump cotton pads packed with carrot extract, carrot seed oil and beta gluten, the essence itself is very hydrating in keeping my cheek without any viscosity, and provides the much needed calming effect to the redness around my nose. 

It’s a personal cheat-day essence that I use to keep my routine short and simple, the essence in just 1 pad is more than enough for my face. It absorbs faster into my skin than I expected and I could easily finish my routine with a moisturiser. Definitely recommending this to sensitive skin or anyone who wants to minimise their routine. 

-  Has a light yellowish cream-like consistency 
- Loves that it’s scent free and the packaging as it makes the application process more hygienic 
- With 0.1% retinol, I’d say it’s really potent and strong in fading dark circle. I do see some improvement in skin tone brightening around my undereye area. I don’t feel see any redness or peeling because I use it once every 3 days. Now I’m interested to using this not only around my eye area 
- I’d definitely recommend this eye cream 







- leaves a little white cast and it’s not scent-free. 
- I applied this sunscreen after using the retinol serum and this sunscreen stung my skin the first time I applied this and the stingy feeling lasted few minutes. I re-experimented this sunscreen a week after this incident and my skin still doesn’t like it, or maybe my skin just has weak skin barrier 

- has a liquidy milky consistency, making it easy to spread on my skin and it doesn’t leave a sticky finish as it dries up fast
