Hi Sis, I'm using Madeca right now, and I'm on my 2nd bottle. Hindi ako nagpurge and sakto lang for me yung effect. No drastic changes, siguro kasi hindi rin ako mapimples na. Natuwa lang ako gamitin siya kasi ginagawa ko rin siyang eye cream and hindi greasy, less oily na.

[nerddict]

^how do you apply it sis? Talaga bang it takes time para makita ang result?

[cjb]

^Morning and evening sis, parang moisturizer lang ang paglagay. Give it like mga 3 weeks to see the results. Nung una parang effect kasi pinalitan ko rin soap ko kasabay nung pag gamit ng Madeca. Nung bumalik ako sa dating soap ko, saka ko nakita na may effect rin pala sa face ko yung Madeca.

[nerddict]

^Okay lang naman siguro if I don't use it sa buong mukha ano? And dun lang sa may pimple na part?

[cjb]

^ ah, parang spot treatment? Pwede naman sis, may ibang users na ganun ang gamit

[Rory_Lorelie_Gilmore]

^Looking forward to trying it. Thanks a input.

[nerddict]

^ yes sis. is purging normal? hehe

AM routine:
1. Cosrx good morning gel
2. Klairs Supple  prep Toner
3. Cosrx Galactomyces essence
4. Mizon Snail Eye cream
5. Nature Republic Aqua moisturizer/cream (pink)
6. Biore face milk sunscreen
PM routine:
1. Biore oil cleanser
2. Cosrx good morning gel
3. Skinfood black sugar mask (every tues & sat)
4. Klairs supple prep toner
5. Cosrx galactomyces essence
6. Nature republic snail sheet mask (every MWF)---i use the left over essence on alternate days
7. Mizon snail eye cream

So far hindi umaabot ng 10 steps everyday. I dont have an ampoule or serum yet but planning on buying next month.  But this improved my skin and lessened the dryness. I have combination sesitive skin. The cosrx galactomyces is such a winner! Nakaka blooming!❤️❤️

^ yes sis. is purging normal? hehe

I think sis. Pero nung 1st bottle ko, hindi ako nagpurge. Yung 2nd, minimal purging lang naman.

[nerddict]

^praning kasi ako. May tendency na magstop ako kapag the next day or two e napansin kong parang mas nalala. haha.

I'm planning to try Deoproce again. Their Argan soap and masks are good when I tried it back in 2017. Gusto ko gawing staple sa regimen ko.

Andami ko nang nasubukan, parang bigla I don't know what to use anymore.  Hopefully effective pa din sakin kasi pricey pa naman.

Sharing my updated 10 steps Korean skin care routine. I keep changing and trying different products to see which one best suits me. I mainly rely on reviews when I buy the product. So far I am loving this routine and noticed significant improvement talaga on my skin.

AM:
Banila Co. Clean It Zero (optional)
COSRX Low pH Good Morning Gel Cleanser
Pyunkang Yul Essence Toner
Secret Key Starting Treatment Essence
Phytoniacin Whitening Essence
Mizon Snail Repair Intensive Ampoule
Benton Aloe Propolis Soothing Gel
Etude House Sunprise Must Daily SPF50

PM:
Banila Co. Clean It Zero (optional)
COSRX Low pH Good Morning Gel Cleanser
Neogen Gauze Peeling Wine (Mon & Fri)
Lemon Sparkling Peeling Gel (Tue & Sat)
Pyunkang Yul Essence Toner
Secret Key Starting Treatment Essence
Phytoniacin Whitening Essence
Mizon Snail Repair Intensive Ampoule
Tony Moly Pureness 100 Snail Mask Sheet (Wed & Sun)
Benton Aloe Propolis Soothing Gel
Mizon Snail Repair Eye Cream
Laneige Water Sleeping Mask (Thurs only)
Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask

Optional Items I use:
COSRX Acne+Pimple Master Patch
Hanaka chuchu Lip Scrub

I do double essence-ing because it's effective when it comes to removing pimple marks really quick. Still thinking if I'll change moisturiser once I finished my Benton and might try the Nature Republic or Dear Klairs Moist Rich Soothing Cream. Or if you have any recos let me know.

[nerddict]

Mga sis, may nakatry na ba sa inyo nung Pyungkang Acne line/set?

[momoiro07]

My latest addition in my holy grail are:
- Laneige White Plus Renew Capsule Sleeping Pack
    I loved its brightening effect on my skin. It keeps my skin hydrated and helps in lightening the dark spots I got from my recent beach trip.
- The Saem Eco Earth Power Light Sun Cream for my daily sunscreen
    I loved how it blends perfectly with my cheek tint (The Face Shop Watery Tint)
- Laneige Water Bank Eye Gel EX
    Really helps in my fine lines around my under eye area. No millia and stinging sensation. Affordable compared sa dating brand ng eye serum na gamit ko.
- The Saem Perfect Volume Mascara
    So nice on my lashes. A friend even asked if I am wearing a false eyelashes
- Illiyoon Ceramide Ato Concentrate Cream
   All around moisturizer for me and my child, I'm using it on my face and body. Perfect moisturizer for my dry skin.

Hindi complete yung sa akin cos it's my first time to try. I have a very sensitive skin. Natakot ako na hindi ako hiyang, mahal pa naman. Pero happy ako kasi 2 months pa lang yet marami na nakapansin na lumiit pores ko, glowing skin, and glass skin. I'm not also fond of using make ups kaya I go out barefaced with lipbalm on and a light touch of red tint on my lips. Good to go na ako. Sharing my skin care routine and I think, I am not going to try others na kasi hiyang ako. 

AM
Innisfree Jeju Volcanic Pore Cleansing Foam
Innisfree Green Tea Balancing Skin EX
CosRx Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence
Innisfree Green Tea Seed Serum
Sunblock SPF 75 or SPF 100 which ever is available

PM
Innisfree Jeju Volcanic Pore Cleansing Foam
Innisfree Green Tea Balancing Skin EX
CosRx Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence
Innisfree Green Tea Seed Serum
Innisfree Whitening Pore Sleeping Pack

MWF
AM - I include Innisfree Jeju Volcanic Pore Scrub Foam

Saturdays AM - I include Innisfree Super Volcanic Clay Mask 2x

I'm not fond of face masks but if I'm in the mood and or I want to feel refreshed, I would use one on a Sunday night before the Innisfree whitening pore sleeping pack.

Since I find this regimen effective for me already, I would like to add on an eye cream and something that can address the fine lines esp on my forehead. I hope somebody can recommend? Ayoko lang sana ng masyado marami i-apply. Hindi kasi ako tulad ng iba dito na masipag at madami time lagi to apply everything, tamad kasi ako and mabilisan lagi. Thank you in advance!

Hi sisses! matanong ko lang. may nakatry na ba dito nung Sugar Kitten ng Memebox? I wonder kung hydrating nga talaga siya.

[Rory_Lorelie_Gilmore]

I already have a staple Korean facial wash (Cosrx Low pH Cleanser), toner (Klair's Supple Preparation Toner) and Sunscreen (Cosrx Aloe Soothing Sunscreen) (and Biore - Japan).

But Im still on the lookout for the best Korean Moisturizer for me, sensitive skin ko whenever Im here in the Middle East because of the water and weather. Im currently using Cosrx Oil Free Moisturiser with Birch Sap, ok naman, pero so-so lang for me at night. I've tried Cosrx Snail Mucin Essence naubos nalang, pero both of them, walang astounding effect even if gamitan ko ng Klair's Vitamin C serum along with it.

Any suggestions?

Looking into Klairs Midnight Blue Calming Cream, because nagustuhan ko yung Supple Preparation Toner nila and Vitamin C Serum.
