Be careful lang, using the cleansing foam twice could strip your skin and cause more breakouts.

thanks for this tip. oo nga naman, harsh na for the skin na twice yung cleansing foam.. but may cleansing foam na rin that acts as a double cleanser, diba? para no need to use cleansing oil.. tama ba sis?

[ataypool]

^Ikaw din naman makakasabi kung malinis or masama na sa skin mo. Kung cleansing foam ang meron ka for now and it works for you, stick with it, ubusin muna bago ka bumili ng cleansing oil. Another option is if your lotion or cream is oil-based, use that as a 'first cleanse' (your sunscreen/sunblock/make up remover), then cleansing foam ang second cleanse.

^^ If you're concerned sa budget, but really want to try the Laneige Water Sleeping Mask or any sleeping masks, try mo Innisfree Green Tea sleeping pack.

na try ko yung trial pack ng Innisfree Sleeping Pack 3 pcs yun, Green Tea, Aloe Revital & Wine Jelly

inuna ko yung Green Tea, ganda nya kase love ko talaga GT line ng Innisfree, tapos yung Aloe Revital halos same lang sya ng GT tapos check ko sa site mas mura pa sya. Yung Wine Jelly hindi ko type pati amoy matapang, inuubos ko na lang ngayun sa leeg ko lang nilalagay kung mag purchase ako siguro okay na sa akin yung Aloe Revital Sleeping Pack mas malaki pa yata sya

Mga sis na nakaorder na sa Althea, for example naka-1500 ako, diba free shipping na. Meron pa bang additional fees or whatsoever akong babayaran except dun sa 1500?

Wala. Kung ano lang yung total mo yun lang.

^^^^ cleansing water bago ka mag hilamos ng cleansing foam mo. Or makeup wipes before cleansing foam. Meron ding facial wash na makeup remover na din like purity? Pero hindi ko pa na try kung nakakaalis nga. Or baliktad cleansing water after mo maghilamos para wala na talagang makeup. Nasanay lang ako na alis muna ng makeup bago mag hilamos.

Sis ataypool and others currently using or have used the Cosrx Galactomyces Essence, nagkaron ba kayo ng initial reaction/breakout nung sinimulan nyo sya? After using for a few days, nagkaka breakouts naman ako.
Kung hindi man tumigil, then I'm definitely reacting to NIACINAMIDE or FERMENTED STUFF.

So, I started looking for alternative essences without Niacinamide na rin.
2 options: Secret Key Essence or Innisfree Soybean Essence.

I'm leaning towards Secret Key [first], because mas maikli ang ingredients list, and I'm a sucker for glass packaging, (cheaper also) kaso yung Galactomyces is only third sa ing. list.
Then there's Innisfree Soybean, mas mahaba ang ingredients list and comes in a plastic bottle, but I can buy it from Althea and get a refund if ever it doesn't work for me.

I've also read that Galactomyces contains Niacin. So if I am indeed allergic to Niacinamide, I probably will react to the Secret Key and other Galactomyces essence din. LOL.
But if I am allergic to fermented ingredients in general, even the Innisfree essence won't work for me. ASDFGHJKL
Soooo, ano kaya uunahin kong i-try?

[ataypool]

^wala ako reaction sa CosRX Galactomytes.

Iyong Tony Moly Galactomytes, wala siya niacinamide and 5 ingredients lang. 2 versions original and lite. Sayang wala sa Althea.

[lordknight_aiz.18]

sisses, ano bang mas magandang cleansing oil, yung nag-e-emulsify or not?

[darna88]

may marerecommend ba kayo local online seller na authentic talaga benta at mura? nakakatakot kasi bumili sa althea parang complicated? wala din kasi ako paypal pwede ba fund transfer lang online?

[budzwhiz]

^^^ Ay oo nga. Thanks sis! Sana mura lang dito or meron sa online shops.

^ Yes, pwede ang fund transfer or bank deposit sa Althea sis.

[drag0nfly]

^^Sis, ok naman yung pag-order ko sa Althea, user-friendly naman 

Eto binili ko:

The True Cream - Aqua Bomb   
Jeju Volcanic Pore Clay Mask   
Skinfood Black Sugar Mask

Sa Skincare Curator naman, I bought:

C 20 Original Pure Vitamin C20 Serum
BHA Blackhead Power Liquid

Anong pwede kong ipalit sa COSRX Good Morning cleanser?  OOS kasi kay Skincare Curator.  Meron sa Beauty MNL, kaso ayaw naman ako ma-sendan nung confirmation email to complete my registration. 

[izzie7]

Sis budzwhiz tanggapin mo na na hindi ka pang fermented ingredients at niacinamide hahaha

^ may pH 5.5 cleanser yung innisfree yung blueberry

^sis lordknight mas ok yung nag eemulsify kasi madaling banlawan.

[drag0nfly]

^Dumating kanina after an hour yung confirmation email ng Beauty MNL so nakabili na din ako ng Good Morning Cleanser, but thanks! 

[iwannabeasupermodel]

Finally dumating na package ko from althea! On its 15th day talaga!! Haha huhu.

[budzwhiz]

Sis budzwhiz tanggapin mo na na hindi ka pang fermented ingredients at niacinamide hahaha

Ayoko nga. Haha! May last 2 chances pa ako, itatry ko pa yung sa Secret Key at Innisfree Soybean.

Yung Tony Moly wala ako makita sa google or site nila na kahit anong info.

[FOURever]

Sis vuzhia saan ka nakabili ng trial pack ng innisfree?

Ano yung 3 second starter?

[ataypool]

^Budzwhiz, read this for the ingredients list (photos of the box) and review of Tony Moly Galactomytes. Isa sa mga binabasa ko, he's a guy na mas maarte pa sa atin sa skincare. http://haninskin.blogspot.com.au/2014/12/tony-moly-intense-care-galactomyces.html?m=1

[budzwhiz]

^ Thanks sis. Nakita ko na sya, meron sa Tony Moly PH! Haha. Kaso yung lite version lang. Will include this in my last 3 options, bahala na kung alin ang mauuna kong subukan sa kanila ni Innisfree. Will try muna Secret Key. Do you have acids in your routine?

Gusto ko sana mag-add ng acid sa routine ko, repair ko muna my damaged moisture barrier. I was considering CosRx BHA blackhead or AHA, pero parehong may niacinamide.
Any sissies here na gumagamit ng exfoliant? BHA, AHA or PHA? Wondering kung may users dito ng Pixi, Alpha-H, P50... Ako I've used Paula's Choice before.

I ordered na from Althea, will try Innisfree's Green Tea Seed Cream and Deep Seed Cream. (Yung Green Tea Sleeping Pack may niacinamide. :< ) Napa-impulse buy din ako nung Wine Peeling Jelly Softener. Lol, hays. First time to try yung COD option, sana smooth din yung transaction. Used my points from the refund and a coupon code kaya less than 2k at pwede COD.

[izzie7]

^ may trial size ako ng pixi. Hiyang naman ako, i use it everyday +bha at lahat sa routine. Iguess stick na ko dito plus masks na lang siguro bibilhin ko saka yung tea tree essence pag naisipan ko.

Sino yung naghahanap ng skin miso strips? Meron sa shopee kimchijib yung seller. Mahal pala nun 1k+ ewan ko ilang pcs mukang madami naman.

[budzwhiz]

^ Ano yung bha mo? Pinagsasabay mo sila everyday?
