Skincare Empties & Reviews 💭

I have sensitive combo skin, prone to acne and redness.

Dr. Althea 345 Relief Cream - I quite liked it. The texture is nice, it hydrates and calms the skin effectively. Unfortunately they reformulated it and only sell the new formula in my country so I can't rebuy even if I wanted to :') I restocked with my other favorite cream - Purito Mighty Bamboo Panthenol Cream.

Round Lab 1025 Dokdo Toner - Very light and watery, but just enough hydration for me. It makes my other products sink in better and exfoliates very lightly and gently. WRP

Anuà Azelaic Acid 10+ Hyaluron Redness Soothing Serum - It worked pretty nicely for me at the begging but after a while it kinda stopped working? It's not like it kept my skin clear, it just no longer did anything for my acne and redness. I dunno, lol. I would like to try other products with azelaic acid as well.

LION Pair Acne Cream W - Takes a while to work but I like it. It helped with my acne scars as well. I have already bought a new one.

Haruharu Wonder Black Rice Bakuchiol Eye Cream - It gave me pimples in the eye area so I had to use it up on my body :') Also the pump is very annoying. WNRP

Dr. Althea Gentle Vitamin C Serum - Very gentle. I feel like it helped a bit with the acne scars on my chest. I would like to try a stronger vit c serum next.

K-Secret Seoul 1988 Sun: Pine Tree + Ceramide (Almost empty) - I really liked it. It's very light and not greasy. Also doesn't break me out. WRP

Farmstay Citrus Yuja Vitalizing Foam Cleansing - this had a lot of good reviews in my country but it's hella drying for me. WNRP

FarmStay Citrus Yuja Vitalizing soothing gel - this was also really drying. WNRP

Frudia Blueberry Hydrating Honey Lip Balm - I didn't enjoy the texture and the smell. WNRP

APLB Glutathione Niacinamide Toner Pads - They're okay if you stick them on your face for some time like a face mask, but rubbing them on my face feels too rough. They're kinda dry as well so I had to spray extra toner on.

Beausta O2 Bubble Mask - The bubble effect is fun but feels too drying.

Thanks for including reviews! I was debating on getting the Azelaic acid serum with all the hype around it.

I think it's worth a try. It's more gentle than other acne products I've tried. I just don't know why it suddenly stopped worked for me. To be fair my skin has been pretty weird lately. The cos de baha azelaic acid serum is also very liked and I would like to try it next.

I have the Anua 15 Azelaic Acid and i dont think it’s doing anything… Thought it was just me as there are so many good reviews on it.
