Korean Skincare and Cosmetics Thread 2

^EMS ba 'yan or regular mail lang? Hintayin mo na lang na dumating 'yung notice sa bahay mo, sis.

Pareho lang ba yung missha night repair ampoule na nabibili sa althea sa borabit ampoule parang wala naman kasing nakasulat na borabit sa bottle na nakita ko sa althea?

Yes sis, same lang. Baka older photo lang ang gamit nila. Scroll down a bit, Time Revolution Night Repair Science Activator Borabit Ampoule ang nakalagay sa bote.

Sis drag0nfly, ganda nga ng effect. Excited na ko to see pag 1 week or naka 1 month na ko. Dati toner, eye cream, and moisturizer lang ako. Buti na lang din pala hindi ako coffeeholic and I do eat yogurt 5x a week. Pass na lang ako sa kimchi. Hehe.

[ataypool]

Pret_ty68, 1 to 2 minutes lang. Iyong iba mas matagal pa. Ikaw na rin bahala, kasi sa akin no difference the effect between waiting a minute or half an hour. After FTE, one serum or oil. I used to put 2 serums hindi ko gusto effect. Minsan din after FTE, I just put my Sulwhasoo Overnight Vitalizing Mask pag may flaking pa from retinol of the previous night. 

Sassygal, yes AHA and BHA.

Sum37 Miracle Rose Cleansing Stick - I had this for 2 months kagabi lang ginamit para lang ubusin ko mga iba kong cleansers. Worth the hype! After my cleansing balm, face still slightly damp, swiped it on my forehead, cheeks and neck. Pag-massage ko with wet hands, madami pala nalagay ko. Very lightly scented, parang old wood, gentle, walang hapdi, not drying, and tulad ng mga full sized Korean products, mahirap ubusin. I've got the feeling too na parang hindi na kailangan double cleanse unless sobrang kapal ng makeup.

sis ataypool pag nag reretinol ka pano ang routine mo?how many times a week ka nag aapply nyan? pashare sis. thank you 😚

OT. natatandaan ko kasi yung friend ko may prinescribe sa kanya yung derma nyang retinol after a week ganda ganda ng skin nya kaso she stopped kaya nagbalikan din ulit pimps.

[ataypool]

^Once a week on a weekend night. Double cleanse> Retinol. Noon 2x a week, hindi maganda sa akin. Iyong Missha ampoule may retinol din pero once a week ko din, but with that one 6 steps ako (double cleanse,acid tone, fte, serum or oil, moisturise) sa bathroom. Iyong lip balm ko while waiting between tone and fte, eye cream sa bedroom na.

[sassy_gal18]

again thanks sis ataypool hanap na lang siguro ako ng eye cream na may retinol para kahit papaano mabawasan man lang fine lines ko.

[ataypool]

^I was planning to buy the Innisfree Eco Science Eye Cream pero kagabi nakita dami ko pa samples ng Whoo and Sulwhasoo. Subukan mo rin iba pang brands na di Korean; ROC has retinol, it's a French brand. Mas mura naman siya pero minsan risk mo na rin ang postal/shipping service sa Manila kung wala diyan.

[pret_ty68]

Yes sis, same lang. Baka older photo lang ang gamit nila. Scroll down a bit, Time Revolution Night Repair Science Activator Borabit Ampoule ang nakalagay sa bote.

Oo nga sis. thanks.

Thanks sis ataypool. Saan pala nakakabili nung Sum37 Miracle Rose Cleansing Stick?  Wala kasi sa althea. Recommended din kasi ito ni kerry thompson yung may blog na skin and tonic.

[ataypool]

^got mine from w2beauty by EMS. Ebay or amazon baka meron.

[pret_ty68]

^
thanks. door to door ba mag deliver ang w2beauty?

[sassy_gal18]

thanks sis ataypool. nagbasa basa na ko ng mga reviews tungkol sa ROC. Marami palang variants yung para sa eye cream.

Antayin ko muna yung samples na binili ko from RRS, sulwhasoo rejuvenating eye cream yung binili ko. Ok naba yung ganun sis?

---

OT: update sa order ko from RRS,

Departure from inward exchange office na yung status nya, nirelease na ng customs. Hmmm, magkano kaya babayaran kong tax and kung ano ano pa sa PO? Less than 1500 lang total ng mga binili ko. Pa advise naman sa mga sis dyan na naka order na internationally. Thanks! (Registered mail yung pinili ko nga pala.)

[izzie7]

Sa instagram or korean preorders may cleansing stick pero namamahalan ako pero kung sulit naman try ko pag naubos na yung cerave ko.

Sa 3 samples ng sulwhasoo eye cream (sachets)
- time treasure renovating eye cream - binigay ko kay mama hindi nya type para daw lalong lumaki eyebags nya so kinuha ko yung last 2 sachets sa kanya. Mas gusto ko sya compared sa other two. Parang may difference naman after 1 sachet. Pero dahil halos $200 pang sachet lang ako haha Thicker din yung cream.
- concentrated ginseng renewing eye cream eto talaga yung ginagamit ko feeling ko walang effect. Lakas ng amoy.
- essential rejuvenating eye cream lightest consistency, after one sachet parang wala din naman akong napansin.
Wala lang basta ba may eye cream pwede na sakin haha

^free shipping ba order mo?

[sassy_gal18]

hi sis hindi free shipping. medyo pricey nga yung shipping fee ng RRS.

Nabasa ko lang yung retinol content pala ng Missha Borabit ampoule is 0.0004% lang.

Pero dahil eye area ko pa lang naman problem ko pwede na rin yung 0.0004% na yan. Pag siguro stable na yung korean skincare ko mag tatry na ko ng iba pang with retinol.

Currently kasi puro samples pa lang meron ako hehe

[izzie7]

Sis ataypool anong pinaka fave mo na fte? Saka kung iope vs cosrx? Yung iope yata copy ng old formula ng skII yung cosrx yung bago. Or mas maganda yung sum37? Daming ingredients nung sum37 at nasa ilalim yung niacinamide.

Edit: hindi pala nagiba ng fermented ingredient yung skII mas tama lang yung name pitera ngayon.

[ataypool]

^My favourite is not in my current rotation: Sulwhasoo First Care Activating Serum. Second is Missha FTE old formulation, hindi ko na rin mabibili.

Between Iope and CosRX, I will go with Iope. Texture niya kasi watery, not much waiting time and works well with my other serums. There is still glow with CosRX but with Iope there's more of it. Magandang booster siya. Tingin ko lang CosRX maganda pag maganda na talaga skin pero Iope if you need more. Sum37 too early to tell, kasi sa Iope noon hindi rin agad ang effect, pero I also like Sum37 especially with the hydrating part (more hydrating than Iope), baka more suited for older skins.

Just received Skinfood makeup remover. Matapang ba talaga amoy nito? Parang amoy acetone Magseparate ba ulit yung two liquids? Kasi di pa nagseseparate yung saken. May fake ba neto?
 

[lovely_chic]

^ I have one pero it has floral scent and bilis lang din mag separate yung liquids. Been using it for months na and I can't complain.

[BacMook]

I saw sa shopee account ng theskincarecurator P550 yung CosRx AHA/BHA Toner, ganyan talaga price nya? Okay din ba to for oily skin? Tapos meron din dun Missha FTE and Borabit Ampoule, set na sya for 2.8k ata?

Also planning to use along with it Missha FTE and Borabit Ampoule. Di pa ko nagstart with Korean Skincare pero parang gusto ko na magstart. Nagbreakout ako lately, ang dry ng face ko and oily din at the same time. Enlarged yung pores ko plus andaming small bumps and mga white/blackheads. Hay, kakalungkot. Still planning and reading reviews on what products to buy.

[Ireneeeeee]

hi mga sis! may nakapagtry na ba ng iope bio essence? planning to get one pero dilemma ko pa rin if i should stick with missha fte  kasi love ko rin naman sya. mas mahal kasi si iope so i want to know if sulit sya..

[izzie7]

^ok daw sabi ni sis ataypool. Gusto ko din after ng missha.

I have giant pores wala naman yatang totoong pore minimizer
