hi gals,

may masa-suggest ba kayong korean brand ng BB cream na pwede sa preggy? Yung locally available sa mga Watsons ganun...


Thanks in advance 

[n_n]

^^^Sure. Pero baka Jan pa ang review ko haha. Magchange din ako ng eating habits (mataas sa sugar, sodium, bad carbs, at processed food kasi ngayon) mas maging active, pati gamit ko pa din yung ibang products. Kaya makaapekto pa din sa results

Edit: I highly recommend you to add a product with ceramide. Check ka nalang din sa nasend ko na link Quick search for benefits nalang din hehe. Pero madalas prod: Dr. Jart Ceramide, Cerave PM (non-kor), Rosette ceramide (non-kor//Jap).

Sis @ataypool Im just waiting for my sum37 stick nakakenganyo yung good reviews! As for sunscreen, biore watery yung gamit ko ngayon. Kakabili ko Lang ang parang di sya suited sakin. Matte finish pala sya, medyo drying for my dehydrated skin.. will try find the sum37 one. Sulwhasoo kasi mahal 😬 Happy ka sa antipodes face oil mo sis?

First time last night to try my ms flower mr honey. Waw ganda sa skin

[luna laxa]

^^thanks. May naorder na ko sis na ceramide cream intay ko nalang damatjng. Tagal pala kasi ng delivery sa shopee!!!

[ataypool]

^samples binibili ko sa Sulwhasoo and Sum37; you can try History of Whoo na parang mas mahal sa Sulwhasoo pero madami ako nakikita na samples noon not sure now. Napansin ko lang na mas maganda sun protection pag galing LG (Sum37 and Whoo) than Amore Pacific (Hera, Sulwhasoo, Iope) although sila pareho ok.

Another must have I forgot to mention, Belif Moisture Bomb, sample din binili ko pero a lot of bloggers are mentioning Goodal Moisture Barrier Cream para din daw Belif and mas mura pa.

Antipodes Divine Face Oil yes gusto ko: lalo na pag may micropeeling from Tret.

[luna laxa]

^interesting yang history of whoo. Wala masyado samples now though will keep that in mind sis pagbili ko ng bagong spf (nakakatuwa naman, may labanan ng conglomerates) 😂

I had my eyes on that goodal also kaso wala ako makita rito. Belief yata meron so baka try ko muna yon.

Yung nabili kong antipodes dati maliit na bottle Lang, p400 yata? I hope meron pa silang ganitong size.
Currently using Nuxe. It doesn't do so much. (Naentice lang ako nung SA kasi ang bango nung pagspritz nya)

I'm looking for a hydrating toner di kasi ako masyado sold sa hada labo. I remember nag cc pala ako nung gumamit ako perfect gel nila..

Share ko lang, wag niyo maliitin ang cleansing step haha. Especially if you're wearing sunscreen or makeup. Pwede kasi makaclog ng pores din yun. Hindi lang extra sebum ang clogged pores, pwede din sa mga products na ginamit na hindi maayos na naalis < Yun yung case ng saken Lol

After 3 months, mali pala ako mag double cleanse *facepalm*, at yung oil cleanser ko pala ay designed talaga siya as eye and lip makeup remover (Skinfood milkshake point).
1. Oil Cleanser: start with dry face pala haha, massage tapos tsaka mo lang ie-emulsify gamit tubig (massage sa face 2-3 mins, but not more than 5 mins)

2. 2nd Cleanser: kahit hindi foam, may gel type, cream type, or misceral water. Dipende kasi sa skin type, pag dry skin baka msyado drying ang foam (kahit low ph), pag sensitive skin, baka magbreakout sa oil cleanser (misceral water yung ginagamit ng iba).

[vuzhia]

^super agree ako dyan sis...dati talaga hindi ko alam yang double cleansing na yan pero nung mag start ako gumamit ng BB cream tapos naka mositrurizer pa ako and minsan sunscreen na observe ko talaga dun sa mga fine lines ko sa ilalim ng mata kahit anong foam wash hindi pala talaga naalis si BB Cream kaya naisip ko syempre stay din sila sa pores ko

ngayun Biore Cleansing Oil, Foam wash tapos may lanolin egg soap pa ako...ay naku na observe ko mukhang mas nag bright face ko hihi...hiyang din ata ako kay Lanolin Egg soap

Mga sis, sino na nakatry ng CosRX One step pimple clear pads and yung Acne Patch?...nasa CosRX phase yata ako haha..halos binili ko lahat ng CosRx prods....pati yung Low Ph Good morning Cleanser.. sana okay....

[Myealexis21]

^Sis di ko pa na-try yan, wala kase available sa iherb.com but I was able to try the AHA at saka yung BHA liquid nila. So far walang bad reaction sa skin ko, but wala din ako nakikita pang pagbabago kase lazy ako i-apply haha!  But I heard good feedback dyan sa clear pads at Acne patch from a korean youtuber, joankeem, nirerecommend nya yan palagi.

I want that Good morning cleanser din!

[catwoman]

^sis finally got them!....sa The Skin Curator you can try. Mabilis lang maubos saka mabilis silang magship.😊 Hope this helps....will roadtest them first LOL...

I've tried the pimple patches, and they're good. They're thicker than the usual Korean patches (TONYMOLY, A'PIEU), closer to the Nexcare ones iirc. Pang whiteheads lang talaga 'yung mga ganyan, they won't work on cystic acne. x) It's good to have them in one's stash just in case there's an emergency.

Hi there.

Question, pwede bang I-alternate ang Vitamin C and BHA Blackhead Power (every other night ang gamit)? Or may mas better bang "schedule" to maximize the use of these acids?

I'm in my late 30s with combi skin (mostly oily but frequently dry sa cheek area). My regimen is as follows:
A.M.
- Cetaphil (no toner)
- Collagen lotion (japanese)
- 9Complex Cloud cream
- Biore Aqua Water Essence (sunscreen)

P.M.
- April Skin Magic Stone Soap
- Klairs Supple Preparation Toner
- Its Skin Vitamin C OR CosRx BHA Blackhead Power
- Guerrison Essence
- Mizon Snail Recovery Cream OR Hada Labo gel as sleeping mask

Thanks in advance sa sasagot!

Any recommendation for pore minimizing or tightening?

[luna laxa]

^search mo yung "grit method" ni giddy snails sis. Hindi talaga liliit yung pores pero ma-unclog sila making them less visible.


^^ recommended na vitC in the morning and BHA at night. Sometimes when I think my skin can take it, I use VitC at night also tapos BHA. I follow the 20 min wait time after every acid so medyo nakakainip rin pag pareho mo gagamitin.

[andreil_19]

^Thanks sis! Planning to buy sa althea kaya naghahanap ako ng products suited for my skin problem.

[romance4ever]

Any recommendation for pore minimizing or tightening?

Thanks too! I read nga from fiddysnails that Vit C should be in the morning. Kaso I was hesitant to follow that nasanay ako not to use Vit C in the morning since it will likely oxidize daw and also make your face photosensitive as soon as exposed to sunlight.

I'll try to use it ng magkasunod at night na lang. My skin can take it (I think) and the 20 min wait seem manageable if I start my skincare as soon as I get home.

[luna laxa]

^actually sabi nila di naman daw talaga mababago yung pore size, sadly. Pero ngayon pinag aaralan nila yung glycylglycine nakakatulong daw sa pagshrink ng pore size. Shisheido yung nagpioneer ng research pero yung ibang jap brands gumagamit na rin nyan. Check mo ingredients ng bibilhin mo, o check with cosdna. Not sure how fast yung effect pero I think it's worth the try, problem ko rin yan e
