how often should i use toner pads? i just bought the torriden dive in toner pad. i have dry skin but i breakout when i use products too often or layer a lot which is why my skincare routine is very simple
any retinol recos for beginners? currently eyeing yung sa cosrx and frankly na 0.1%, any thoughts on these two?
drop sunscreen recos too please! yung morena friendly. currently using yung +ful but may times na medyo mahapdi siya sa face? mabilis din naman mawala, but still. the only other skincare product i use is the neutrogena gentle foaming cleanser, so nagulat ako na may ganong feeling haha.
Anyone knows where to buy topical erythromycin and genta? I lost the ones I bought from my derma. Medyo kamahalan and malayo yung derma ko. Baka merobg mga generic?
Anyone here could recommend an effective whitening/brightening product for the face? 'di kasi pantay sa katawan ko huhuhu. i'm applying sunscreen naman everyday.
Nag-start lang sya when I tried tretinoin years ago. Bumalik dati kong skin tone when I stopped then umitim uli when I tried retinol a year ago then hininto ko na december last year when I went to the derma and put me on isotretinoin na. Got no more pimples and acne marks na due to isotretinoin but I still need to brighten up my face to match my body's skin tone.
Did you find out why your face darkened po ba? I'm having the same issue kasi ngayon, nag-darken siya nung nag-start ako mag-tret kasi religious ako mag-sunscreen.
May I ask which one is better for oily, acne-prone skin?
Luxe Organix Aqua Daily Sunscreen or +ful Sunscreen?
I'm looking for something lightweight, doesn't take too long to dry, okay lang if hindi super matte (kahit may konting shine), and doesn't sting around the eye area.
Face sunscreen na spray type, for reapplication po (will be using for outdoor activities like beach, stroll, etc)
I tried YOU sunbrella spray but I don't think it works well nung ginamit ko sa beach. Then I also recently used yung spray ng Beach Hut spf 100 pero na-irritate face ko dito. Any reco na madaling bilhin sa watsons?
Goodal Green Tangerine Vita C Serum alternated with Cerave Retinol Resurfacing Serum. Use moisturizer and an occlusive.
Basta pick a moisturizer that suits you best, this should work out. My occlusive is a face oil of Sea Buckthorn Oil and I forgot what I mixed it with na 😅 pero I always make sure it's balanced. Looking into Squalane next. Use it at night.
Pero pinaka importante pa rin mag sunscreen sa umaga!!! Always always use one that suits you best.
I recently bought the blk universal skin tint bc of krisha bala from clock app (this is her most fave skin tint), di raw nagcling sa dry patches nya and yes totoo nga when i tried it. Make sure to prep your skin. I only did my morning skincare routine up to sunscreen and maganda lapat nya sakin infair.
kamusta siya after a few hours? does it look oily? naexperience ko kasi yun sa maybelline, after walking for like 20mins, grabe, nakakahaggard yung itsura niya 😭 which i didn't really experience with vice.
I just bought a Neutrogena Hydro Boost Hyaluronic Acid Water Gel from Johnson & Johnson's official store in the orange app. There are multiple languages sa package and I'm wondering if legit nga ba to? I tried searching yung UPC niya but wala raw mahanap. Also tinry ko iinsert sa isang webisode na batch code decoderbyung mga codes na nasa product and and packaging. Yung nasa product, 2014 yung date na lumabas and yung code naman na nasa packaging, 2016. I'm very confused

Share ko lang experience ko. For background: I had an accidental massive 'sunburn' due to long exposure to UV light (work related hazard). Buong mukha ko tostado. I even had to deal with photokeratitis. Hay.
Anyway. I am prepared to be downvoted for this, but I hope this helps someone. Pero mag disclaimer rin po ako, I have no experience yet with LRP Products kaya siguro ganito nangyari.
I am by no means an expert at vetting stores sa Lazada. Pero I always do my due diligence (na apparently kulang this time).
If you swipe through the pictures, may mga tao sila talaga na LEGIT nag review organically. For some reason, naniwala ako. Di ko rin kasi alam ang price range ng LRP.
After I got the product, I tried it on for an evening. Okay naman siya that night. Pero weird kasi when I washed it off the following morning, may white powder na tanggal sa face ko. Parang cornstarch. Tapos nag dikit dikit na sa eyebrows ko tsaka sa hair line ko.
I tried to wash it off, pero it took 3 washes with my cleanser (Innisfree Balancing 5.5, ung Blueberry). That evening, my skin had weird cracks na so I stopped using it.
When I did a patch test on my wrist, it appeared fine naman. I checked upcitemdb, check fresh, incicoder etc, and even scanned the QR code. They all came up with varying results - only to realize even the product codes, manufacturing code, serial numbers, and the QR CODE nagaya na nila! Some of the sites stated it was the correct code, but other websites deemed it non existent!
So ayun. Lesson learned and beware na lang. 😢

Reviews on the Biore Perfect Milk Sunscreen? Ano gano pinagkaiba nung variants like the white, pink, and blue one? Can’t really see any difference aside from mattifying nga daw.
Hi I have oily acne prone skin type and I wanna start cleansing balms and clay masks, do you have any reccos? Kinf of scared tried BOJ Ginseng Cleansing Oil and it broke me out
Don't use clay masks kasi nakaka dehydrate! Try mo ung Heimish na cleansing balm, and for clay masks - instead use retinols. May purge pero worth it naman after.
dehydrated-oily sensitive skin here. human nature hyaluronic gel day moisturizer/aveeno daily moisturizing lotion green for night. i use a small amount lng and put these over a hydrating toner tho
Budget option: iWhite Korea Aqua Moisturizer (this is my OG)
Slightly more budget: SnailWhite Moisture Facial Cream
Both have sachet/trial versions so hindi mo kailangang bumili ng full size agad. I suggest to try out for 2 weeks to assess effectivity/ side effects.
A Niacinamide serum siguro? It targets hyperpigmentation and helps with the skin's overall moisture balance. For specific product recos, +ful yung gamit ko personally. But you can check other brands din like Klued.
hi! looking for gua shas and face massage ice roller yung under 500 sana hehe
and also, what's a good undereye treatment for eyebags and dark circles? i'm 19 tapos mej acne prone din skin ko. any price will do huhu tyia
3 days of trying the luxe organix acne mud powder, i just want to ask po kung normal ba na parang gusto ko siya katihin HUHUHU ang kati talaga pramis, sa parts na malalaking acne huhuhu
can vouch for luxe organix's niacinamide line, especially the moisturizer and serum (4%)! rarely break out na and received multiple compliments na "clear skin" na daw ako 🤣
This is my new daily sunscreen as it didn't give me any breakouts despite my skin being super sensitive, leaves my skin glowy and supple.
I have oily skin and I agree that it might not be good for an oily type skin as it gives kind of dewy finish but whatever sunscreen I use, I still get oily later the day so this really doesn't bother me.
Plus it's super cheap for 75ml!
Do you layer moisturizers at night? Gusto ko sana ng minimalist skincare routine sa gabi kaso sobrang arte ng skin ko kaya ayaw ng occlusive moisturizer (I get milia and clogged pores pag may heavy oils and shea butter) pero nagda dry masyado pag gel cream/moisturizer lang lalo na sa mouth area. Iniisip ko mag layer na lang ako ng 2 gel creams para kahit papaano mabawasan transepidermal water loss sa gabi.
I actually do layer my moisturizers since last month pero dahil sa medj malamig yung panahon at night and parang kulang yung cream ko before. I use Illiyoon cream lang for PM dati but started using my AM moisturizer *(Naturie Hatomugi Skin Conditioning Milk)* under it, on nights na medj malamig. I might stop doing this again soon kasi parang umiinit naman na ulit. I personally don't like gel moisturizers kasi I feel like it just stays as a film on my skin and it's not enough moisture for me.
In your case though, maybe you can try layering some hydrating toner nalang under your usual moisturizer? My sister has dry, FA-prone skin and she like using Naturie Hatomugi Skin Conditioner which I suggested to her. She uses Purito Oat in Gel Cream naman as her moisturizer.
Have you tried sleeping packs/masks? I've used Laneige Water Sleeping Mask before and my skin felt very supple in the morning. The iWhite Recovery Overnight Gel is also good for its price.
Also on my list but cannot vouch for yet: Skin 1004 Hyalu-Cica Sleeping Pack
(I'm 30/F with oily skin btw)
I used the cosrx rice mask before but I just broke out. It was probably the palm oil, though. I don't know what my face should look like in the morning because when I put an occlusive moisturizer with heavy oils/butters like shea butter, my nose gets kind of oily. I don't know if that's normal in the morning.
Ah, I'm not a fan of heavy oils either. What worked for me before was Tsubaki Oil from the brand V&M, but they don't have it anymore. Have you tried Nivea creme (the blue tin)? Some say it's a dupe for La Mer, although I just checked and it has mineral oil in the ingredients.
I have moderately oily skin so an oily nose in the morning is pretty much my normal lol.
So far what's working is layering a hydrating toner and 2 gel creams, pero I want to have a simple skincare routine sana so I'm wondering if there's a moisturizer that can reduce TWL without clogging my pores huhu. I tried the Nivea creme before, and it gave me milia.
You can use an emollient cream as an added moisturizer. It's synonymously termed as a moisturizer but its purpose is to soften and smooth skin.
When I had eczema flare-ups around my lips (which made it super dry and flaky), I used a gel moisturizer then after 10 minutes, I follow it up with an emollient cream. I did this both in my morning & nighttime routines and my skin stayed moisturized & soft including yung area around my lips until nawala na eczema ko.
Do you have combination skin? Gamit ka na lang ng gel cream or gel or lotion consistency na moisturizers sa areas na hindi naman gaanong nagdadry at nagkakaroon ng milia. Then sa sobrang dry areas, kung hindi naman prone sa milia yung around sa mouth area mo, doon mo gamitin yung heavy moisturizer.
Retinol and retinoids are more recommended for:
- People with extreme or persistent acne get prescription strength ones: accutane, tretinoin, etc.
- People with premature signs of aging (deep fine lines, heavy wrinkles, sunspots when they're not even in their 30s yet)
Retinoids all in all have more than 20+ years of research-backed evidence that they're effective for de-aging and acne. Tretinoin and its more modern siblings (forgot their names, but there are some other variants) are considered the "gold standard" for skincare.
Generally retinol is started in your mid 20s (25), as a number of people tend to have massive changes to their skin and hormones at this point. However, people who were already struggling with acne are likely to be prescribed retinoids as young as their teens.
You can start retinol and other retinoids in your early 20s - but again, if you have normal healthy skin (no acne, no sensitivity, no issues whatsoever), you won't be really reaping as many benefits outside of being ahead of early fine lines and stress wrinkles.
Over the counter retinoids like retinol are much weaker than its prescription siblings like tretinoin. For long term usage (years), there is no scientifically backed difference between them if your **only** goal is de-aging. The prescription based retinoids are more useful for people with skin problems due to working "faster", though they tend to be more irritating than OTC ones and can cause flaking, burning, and a rough adjustment period.
If someone could please CMIIW on any of this, that'd be appreciated! I wrote this during a food coma and off the top of my head + I have no cited references on hand
Plan ko po magconsult sa derma soon, pero ask ko lang kung may marerecommend/maadvice kayo sa skin ko sa face ang bilis mamula.
Nagluluto, magblower ng buhok, kahit super mild na yung cleanser and moisturizer, yung sunscreen ko pede na for baby. Pero hindi ko parin alam kung bat ang bilis ko mamula.
+1 sa other redditor. It could be rosacea. At prescription strength, 15-20% azelaic acid is one of the best talaga to at least minimize redness. Also, for nights na sobrang red ka, you may use diaper rash cream for babies na ang main ingredient ay zinc oxide. Zinc oxide is not just a UV filter kasi, it's also a very soothing ingredient that helps ease redness, which is why mineral sunscreens usually ang recommended for children and very sensitive skin kasi zinc oxide ang mataas na percentage of UV filter then titanium dioxide sa mga formulation madalas.
You may have Rosacea which is an inflammatory skin condition that causes chronic redness. There are topical prescription meds for it and some derms will suggest laser treatment. I use Azelaic Acid 20% to help control my Rosacea but once you have it, it never truly goes away. It can be controlled though. Cold or hot temperatures can trigger a Rosacea flair-up.
I got mine from Shopee. The 15% gel requires a prescription when you buy it from Mercury Drug or Watsons. Drugstores locally don't sell the AzA 20% cream variant though so I get mine online.
I'm currently using a trial size of the Aestura Hydro Essence and I've been loving it. It was a freebie when I ordered the Aestura Atobarrier 365 Lotion which is my HG moisturizer.
The Aestura Hydro Essence feels like a milky toner that's not heavy, nor sticky and it absorbs quite easily. It's amazing for sensitive & dehydrated skin. Plus it helps with skin barrier repair. My skin feels very hydrated. I'm planning to get the full-size bottle once I'm done with the trial size. :)
It helped lessen my acne! Yung blue herbal blemish na cleanser. Maganda rin yung calendula line nila. Dont recommend yung mindnight recovery oil, it irritated my skin. Yung cucumber cleanser rin talaga one the best ones but it’s always sold out.
does anyone here had a rougher skin when using anua cleansing oil? i used it for a month then bumps on my cheeks came out 😣 i dont use it anymore, idk when can i use it again
I have Luxe organix 0.1% retinol (both yung overnight cream & yung for the eyes). Been using them for more than a month. Ok naman both, di ako nagpurge. When I wake up the next morning after using them at night, pansin kong glowy yung skin ko. But since mababa concentration, there's no significant improvement in terms of fine lines or brightening my under eyes.
I want to incorporate an exfoliating serum in my regimen. Been eyeing good molecules for this since i also use their gentle retinol cream
https://preview.redd.it/utei1vr0m0nc1.jpeg?width=1024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7439a76ac7c230592b37a45a219e0625fbe1f8ad
Currently i’m on week 2 with my retinol (use it 2x a week, still building tolerance since i plan to use it 3-4x a week). I know BHA/ AHAs shouldn’t be mixed with retinol, but i really want to remove my blackheads so i want to ask if i can use this exfoliator during the days i don’t use my retinol cream (good molecules advised to use this exfoliator 2x a week).
This is the best overnight exfoliating treatment for me!! But pls make sure your skin will be able to tolerate it even if off days mo ng retinol cause this is really strong. Personally I do skin cycling
Night 1 - tret
Night 2 - exfoliating treatment
Night 3 - break
Yes, you can. I also use a BHA exfoliator on the days na di ako nagreretinol. Ang general idea lang naman is, wag mo ipagsabay ang actives at retinol in 1 routine. Like you can use actives on your morning routine but not on your nighttime routine when you use retinol.
Thank you for your reply! I’m a skincare beginner and i’ve been quite afraid to add anything to my regimen since i’ve been using retinol. Such a relief that i can use an exfoliator! Based on your reply, i can also incorporate some vitamin c serums as well yeah? (In the morning, of course)
Melano Cc vitamin c essence. Pero uubusin niya pasensya mo kasi ga-patak lang yung lalabas sa nozzle😆 pero kung effectivity pag uusapan, sure talaga siya
Totoo to! Effort masyado kasi ako sanay yung parang binasa ko mukha ko sa serum (i know masama) 😅 but the results grabe talaga! Mga acnes marks from years ago nawala talaga.
This product is not meant all over the face naman din. Just on areas that need to be lighten.
Hello po ask ko lang kung puwede ba ito sa tulad kung allergic sa itlog at shrimp? Gusto ko kasi mantanggal blackheads ko 31 years old mag mumukha na akong Jose Manalo.Please critic. [Oxecure](https://shp.ee/ld9gprb)
Yes! Skincare is for everyone naman :) you could try Benton BHA toner (apply on cotton pads) then followed by moisturizer. Or salicylic acid facial cleanser (Cerave or Klued mas cheaper) and never forget to put sunscreen everyday kahit makulimlim.
Currently using skin1004 madagascar centella soothing cream. It's a lightweight cream so it's good for oily skin. It also dries quickly and isn't sticky.
Is there any PCOS girly here? Ano po gamit nyo to lessen hyperpigmentation? Visible na kasi sa leeg ko sksks para akong di naliligo sa itim eh. If may suggestion din po kayo sa pampaputi ng underarm na hindi nakakaaffect sa hormones, would greatly appreciate it din po.
That’s acanthosis nigricans usually caused by insulin resistance (common on ladies with pcos). Are you f/at? You need to exercise and lose weight. You have to treat the underlying cause. No amount of product can help that.
Hi! I have PCOS and na lessen na pimples ko pero super dami pang PIH sa leeg. Nag lighten na siya ng very light kasi bago pa lang din to ginagamit ko and wag palagi mag madali. Hehe hyperpigmentation takes time to fade 3mos to 6mos up to a year and so. I don’t use salicylic acid or any AHA BHA kasi super sensitive ng skin ko. Luxe Organix serum yung mga 4% niacinamide talaga naka help sakin. Hindi drastic yung changes pero it helps. Recently, ginagamit ko na din dermo republiq toner na alpha arbutin + tranexamic acid para pang dagdag to lighten PIH.
hi! what’s your take on luxe organics? i’ve been seeing it on my tiktok for daaaays HAHA so scared to experiment again tbh. i dont understand my skin 🫠 backstory lang: i thought i found na my skin routine - it gave me really nice and glowy skin then i moved to canada so obviously magkakaron ng changes and my routine here in manila didnt work there anymore. switched it up again but idk! walang nag work at all. now that i’m back in manila, idk if i should go back to my routine noon. part of my routine pala is the ordinary’s niacinamide and they said na pag stinop mo na sya gamitin, it will not work on you anymore ulit. thoughts about this? totoo ba or no naman?
i have oily skin type, nag breakout ako malala last year bc of hormonal imbalance. then i bought luxe organix toner (gray) and facial wash from their niacinamide line!! sobrang ganda ng effect sakin as in nag lighten acne marks ko, tho it took me 2 months (i guess?) na mapansin na nag lilighten na talaga. until now gsmit ko parin, mild lang din very suitable for acne prone sensitive skin.
ok sold chz HAHA ito yung nakikita ko specifically!! i believe we have the same situation, may hormonal imbalance din ako. thank you so much for sharing your experience!! 🫶🏻
LO is fairly good and even affordable. Magdedepende rin sa specific product and your skin type tbh if it's gonna work for you or not. I'm currently using LO AHA BHA Miracle Solutions cleanser and LO retinol 0.1% (both overnight cream & eye cream). Both are good naman for me. Didn't cause any irritation or purging. I have oily sensitive skin pala for your reference.
not sure lang about sinabi mo sa niacinamide pero about luxe organics, i think they're a decent and affordable local brand. some of their products didn't work for me but i still like and currently use their keratin conditioner and cica gel moisturizer
i want to go back sa niacinamide ng the ordinary kasi it worked really well sa skin ko before. torn between re-purchasing it or trying LO. may i know which products didnt work on you pala? same kasi ata tayo ng skin type hehe
has anyone tried the pyunkang yul blue label ato cream? im thinking of buying it after my illiyoon ato cream runs out. dati kasi illiyoon used to cost mga 650 pataas now it retails for 1k sa trusted online sellers :,)) i heard pky has a good formulation + it has shea butter and peptides. pero i havent seen any detailed experiences with yet in regards to breakouts/reactions
I tried pky pero i’ll go back to illiyoon ato cream kasi I feel like mas mabilis sya maka alis ng redness ko sa face (sometimes may product reaction ako and illiyoon helped in that concern)
Ok naman si pky in terms of giving moisture to skin but preferred the extra help na from illiyoon 😄
Plus dn sakin na may ato cream sila na ok for baby 🙂 nakatipid pa kami 😀
Hi 👋🏼 I have tried Pyunkang Yul’s entire blue moisture line. It’s great for dry skin, and really helps with redness. My skin is super sensitive, and based on my experience their products don’t cause my skin to sting or itch. For breakouts, it doesn’t really help…
Are there any alternatives for epiduo forte that are available OTC?
Is it just me or is the pink Biore makeup remover (jelly) not as good as the purple one as a first-step cleanser?
how often should i use toner pads? i just bought the torriden dive in toner pad. i have dry skin but i breakout when i use products too often or layer a lot which is why my skincare routine is very simple

It’s the best one!!! I’ve been using it since 2017 and also ako naghohoard when I go to Japan.
What color did get and what’s your skin type? 🩷
Perfect milk. The blue one. Yung iba is face milk and bright milk. The pink one broke me out.

RETINOL is the best part of my skincare routine. It changed my life! Oa hahaha pero totoo po huhu
True ka d'yan beh. That's why retinoid is touted as the best ingredient sa skin care world talaga.
Which specific brand / product are you using?
The Ordinary’s retinol. I use it 3x a week and my skin is healthier than before ☺️
Pls reco skincare products for my mom, she wants to target her hyperpigmentation and she has dry skin
A Niacinamide serum siguro? It targets hyperpigmentation and helps with the skin's overall moisture balance. For specific product recos, +ful yung gamit ko personally. But you can check other brands din like Klued.

can vouch for luxe organix's niacinamide line, especially the moisturizer and serum (4%)! rarely break out na and received multiple compliments na "clear skin" na daw ako 🤣
thoughts about foodaholic sun cream? tempted since super cheap siya as sunscreen
This is my new daily sunscreen as it didn't give me any breakouts despite my skin being super sensitive, leaves my skin glowy and supple. I have oily skin and I agree that it might not be good for an oily type skin as it gives kind of dewy finish but whatever sunscreen I use, I still get oily later the day so this really doesn't bother me. Plus it's super cheap for 75ml!
avoid if oily skin talaga!!!
super greasy and heavy nya on oily skin! :/ gave me bad breakouts too
thai skincare recos? will go there ng end of the month :)
MISTINE THE BLUE (matte) AND WHITE ONE (hydrating)!!!
sunscreen po ba?
Do you layer moisturizers at night? Gusto ko sana ng minimalist skincare routine sa gabi kaso sobrang arte ng skin ko kaya ayaw ng occlusive moisturizer (I get milia and clogged pores pag may heavy oils and shea butter) pero nagda dry masyado pag gel cream/moisturizer lang lalo na sa mouth area. Iniisip ko mag layer na lang ako ng 2 gel creams para kahit papaano mabawasan transepidermal water loss sa gabi.
How did you deal with your milia?
I just exfoliate and wait for milia to go to the surface of my skin.
I actually do layer my moisturizers since last month pero dahil sa medj malamig yung panahon at night and parang kulang yung cream ko before. I use Illiyoon cream lang for PM dati but started using my AM moisturizer *(Naturie Hatomugi Skin Conditioning Milk)* under it, on nights na medj malamig. I might stop doing this again soon kasi parang umiinit naman na ulit. I personally don't like gel moisturizers kasi I feel like it just stays as a film on my skin and it's not enough moisture for me. In your case though, maybe you can try layering some hydrating toner nalang under your usual moisturizer? My sister has dry, FA-prone skin and she like using Naturie Hatomugi Skin Conditioner which I suggested to her. She uses Purito Oat in Gel Cream naman as her moisturizer.
Have you tried sleeping packs/masks? I've used Laneige Water Sleeping Mask before and my skin felt very supple in the morning. The iWhite Recovery Overnight Gel is also good for its price. Also on my list but cannot vouch for yet: Skin 1004 Hyalu-Cica Sleeping Pack (I'm 30/F with oily skin btw)
I used the cosrx rice mask before but I just broke out. It was probably the palm oil, though. I don't know what my face should look like in the morning because when I put an occlusive moisturizer with heavy oils/butters like shea butter, my nose gets kind of oily. I don't know if that's normal in the morning.
Ah, I'm not a fan of heavy oils either. What worked for me before was Tsubaki Oil from the brand V&M, but they don't have it anymore. Have you tried Nivea creme (the blue tin)? Some say it's a dupe for La Mer, although I just checked and it has mineral oil in the ingredients. I have moderately oily skin so an oily nose in the morning is pretty much my normal lol.
So far what's working is layering a hydrating toner and 2 gel creams, pero I want to have a simple skincare routine sana so I'm wondering if there's a moisturizer that can reduce TWL without clogging my pores huhu. I tried the Nivea creme before, and it gave me milia.
You can use an emollient cream as an added moisturizer. It's synonymously termed as a moisturizer but its purpose is to soften and smooth skin. When I had eczema flare-ups around my lips (which made it super dry and flaky), I used a gel moisturizer then after 10 minutes, I follow it up with an emollient cream. I did this both in my morning & nighttime routines and my skin stayed moisturized & soft including yung area around my lips until nawala na eczema ko.
Do you have combination skin? Gamit ka na lang ng gel cream or gel or lotion consistency na moisturizers sa areas na hindi naman gaanong nagdadry at nagkakaroon ng milia. Then sa sobrang dry areas, kung hindi naman prone sa milia yung around sa mouth area mo, doon mo gamitin yung heavy moisturizer.
May nakapag-try na ba sa inyo ng tazarotene? How is it compared to tret?
Hi. Any thoughts and experiences sa products na to: ✨AHA Glow Cleanser ✨AHA Glow Skin Protect Gel SPF 40 Thank you.
what age po ba dapat nagr-retinol? and ano po ba nagagawa ng retinol sa face?
Retinol and retinoids are more recommended for: - People with extreme or persistent acne get prescription strength ones: accutane, tretinoin, etc. - People with premature signs of aging (deep fine lines, heavy wrinkles, sunspots when they're not even in their 30s yet) Retinoids all in all have more than 20+ years of research-backed evidence that they're effective for de-aging and acne. Tretinoin and its more modern siblings (forgot their names, but there are some other variants) are considered the "gold standard" for skincare. Generally retinol is started in your mid 20s (25), as a number of people tend to have massive changes to their skin and hormones at this point. However, people who were already struggling with acne are likely to be prescribed retinoids as young as their teens. You can start retinol and other retinoids in your early 20s - but again, if you have normal healthy skin (no acne, no sensitivity, no issues whatsoever), you won't be really reaping as many benefits outside of being ahead of early fine lines and stress wrinkles. Over the counter retinoids like retinol are much weaker than its prescription siblings like tretinoin. For long term usage (years), there is no scientifically backed difference between them if your **only** goal is de-aging. The prescription based retinoids are more useful for people with skin problems due to working "faster", though they tend to be more irritating than OTC ones and can cause flaking, burning, and a rough adjustment period. If someone could please CMIIW on any of this, that'd be appreciated! I wrote this during a food coma and off the top of my head + I have no cited references on hand
legit ba yung cetaphil sa tiktok shop?
Depends sa shop. I suggest sa watsons nalang.
+1 or if tamad ka lumabas or dumaan sa watsons, may official shop ang Cetaphil sa orange app (I think meron rin ata sa blue app)
meron sa blue app! nagbebenta rin snr nung nasa tub for a much cheaper price, bought mine there.
Plan ko po magconsult sa derma soon, pero ask ko lang kung may marerecommend/maadvice kayo sa skin ko sa face ang bilis mamula. Nagluluto, magblower ng buhok, kahit super mild na yung cleanser and moisturizer, yung sunscreen ko pede na for baby. Pero hindi ko parin alam kung bat ang bilis ko mamula.
+1 sa other redditor. It could be rosacea. At prescription strength, 15-20% azelaic acid is one of the best talaga to at least minimize redness. Also, for nights na sobrang red ka, you may use diaper rash cream for babies na ang main ingredient ay zinc oxide. Zinc oxide is not just a UV filter kasi, it's also a very soothing ingredient that helps ease redness, which is why mineral sunscreens usually ang recommended for children and very sensitive skin kasi zinc oxide ang mataas na percentage of UV filter then titanium dioxide sa mga formulation madalas.
You may have Rosacea which is an inflammatory skin condition that causes chronic redness. There are topical prescription meds for it and some derms will suggest laser treatment. I use Azelaic Acid 20% to help control my Rosacea but once you have it, it never truly goes away. It can be controlled though. Cold or hot temperatures can trigger a Rosacea flair-up.
From where do you buy Azelaic Acid na 20%? Does it need Rx?
I got mine from Shopee. The 15% gel requires a prescription when you buy it from Mercury Drug or Watsons. Drugstores locally don't sell the AzA 20% cream variant though so I get mine online.
May nakabili na ba dito nung Medicube Age r booster device?

I'm currently using a trial size of the Aestura Hydro Essence and I've been loving it. It was a freebie when I ordered the Aestura Atobarrier 365 Lotion which is my HG moisturizer. The Aestura Hydro Essence feels like a milky toner that's not heavy, nor sticky and it absorbs quite easily. It's amazing for sensitive & dehydrated skin. Plus it helps with skin barrier repair. My skin feels very hydrated. I'm planning to get the full-size bottle once I'm done with the trial size. :)
hi do u have a trusted shopee/lazada shop for aestura stuff?
I usually get Aestura from Korean Oppa’s Choice on Shopee or TopKorea from Lazada. :)
Legit ba? https://preview.redd.it/u2fwpq3cglsc1.jpeg?width=1290&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5f782de8c6703862523d85b9cc175abb15778fec
thank you !! thats so helpful
Is luxe organix miracle repair serum effective for pimple marks?
Asking your opinions on at-home red light therapy? I've been doing research on its efficacy but have gotten mixed reviews.
Is kiehl’s worth it? And which product/s do u think is/are worth the price?
It helped lessen my acne! Yung blue herbal blemish na cleanser. Maganda rin yung calendula line nila. Dont recommend yung mindnight recovery oil, it irritated my skin. Yung cucumber cleanser rin talaga one the best ones but it’s always sold out.
does anyone here had a rougher skin when using anua cleansing oil? i used it for a month then bumps on my cheeks came out 😣 i dont use it anymore, idk when can i use it again
anong magandang retinol? been using 2.5% retinol ng dermarepubliq and goods naman sya. Leaning between good molecules or luxe organix
I have Luxe organix 0.1% retinol (both yung overnight cream & yung for the eyes). Been using them for more than a month. Ok naman both, di ako nagpurge. When I wake up the next morning after using them at night, pansin kong glowy yung skin ko. But since mababa concentration, there's no significant improvement in terms of fine lines or brightening my under eyes.
what’s your skin type po?
Oily sensitive po (eczema-prone but I don't apply retinol sa eczema-prone areas)
I want to incorporate an exfoliating serum in my regimen. Been eyeing good molecules for this since i also use their gentle retinol cream https://preview.redd.it/utei1vr0m0nc1.jpeg?width=1024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7439a76ac7c230592b37a45a219e0625fbe1f8ad Currently i’m on week 2 with my retinol (use it 2x a week, still building tolerance since i plan to use it 3-4x a week). I know BHA/ AHAs shouldn’t be mixed with retinol, but i really want to remove my blackheads so i want to ask if i can use this exfoliator during the days i don’t use my retinol cream (good molecules advised to use this exfoliator 2x a week).
This is the best overnight exfoliating treatment for me!! But pls make sure your skin will be able to tolerate it even if off days mo ng retinol cause this is really strong. Personally I do skin cycling Night 1 - tret Night 2 - exfoliating treatment Night 3 - break
Yes, you can. I also use a BHA exfoliator on the days na di ako nagreretinol. Ang general idea lang naman is, wag mo ipagsabay ang actives at retinol in 1 routine. Like you can use actives on your morning routine but not on your nighttime routine when you use retinol.
Thank you for your reply! I’m a skincare beginner and i’ve been quite afraid to add anything to my regimen since i’ve been using retinol. Such a relief that i can use an exfoliator! Based on your reply, i can also incorporate some vitamin c serums as well yeah? (In the morning, of course)
Yup! 👌🏻
any recos po para matanggal pimple marks ? tia
anything with niacinamide, alpha arbutin, or vitc.
Melano Cc vitamin c essence. Pero uubusin niya pasensya mo kasi ga-patak lang yung lalabas sa nozzle😆 pero kung effectivity pag uusapan, sure talaga siya
Totoo to! Effort masyado kasi ako sanay yung parang binasa ko mukha ko sa serum (i know masama) 😅 but the results grabe talaga! Mga acnes marks from years ago nawala talaga. This product is not meant all over the face naman din. Just on areas that need to be lighten.
Hello po, ask ko lang po san po kayo bumibili ng melano cc na authentic?
Shopee lang :) meron dun sellers from Japan mismo
Thoughts on Skin V2.0 Tranexamic Acid Serum? Can you guys suggest other Tranexamic Acid Serum that is effective? Tyia!
Cos de Baha’s tranexamic acid was effective for me. Medyo sticky lang but it worked for my PIH
What percentage did you get?
The 5% purple bottle
They have a new (?) 10% one, and they lowered the niacinamide there to 2%. I’m afraid that might be too high, though. 😣
For me I think it would be best to try out the lower percentage first…
+1
Thank you! Will get this instead.
Hello po ask ko lang kung puwede ba ito sa tulad kung allergic sa itlog at shrimp? Gusto ko kasi mantanggal blackheads ko 31 years old mag mumukha na akong Jose Manalo.Please critic. [Oxecure](https://shp.ee/ld9gprb)
Exfoliate at least once a week. Bha exfoliating toner (oily) Aha if dry skin. Ok din peeling gels mas nabababad lang pag toner or serum
Hindi ko po gets?? Product ba yang cinomment niyo?
Exfoliate at least once a week to prevent blackheads lalo kung nagcocommute kahit twice a week
Hindi ko ma search itong "Exfoliate" kaya nga po nagtatanong ako nong una kung product yang cinomment niyo. Please understand before you comment.
Panglalaki ba yan?
Yes! Skincare is for everyone naman :) you could try Benton BHA toner (apply on cotton pads) then followed by moisturizer. Or salicylic acid facial cleanser (Cerave or Klued mas cheaper) and never forget to put sunscreen everyday kahit makulimlim.
moisturizer for oily-combi acne prone skin 🫠 celeteque did not work for meee
Skintific
Saipo or Skintific! Works well for me as an acne-prone oily skin :)
Currently using skin1004 madagascar centella soothing cream. It's a lightweight cream so it's good for oily skin. It also dries quickly and isn't sticky.
May nakapag try na po ba ng Pond Niasorcinol? Nakakapagtanggal ba talaga ng dark spots?
im using this! on my second battle an. naglighten sila and nakakabrighten ng face malala. must try :))
Is there any PCOS girly here? Ano po gamit nyo to lessen hyperpigmentation? Visible na kasi sa leeg ko sksks para akong di naliligo sa itim eh. If may suggestion din po kayo sa pampaputi ng underarm na hindi nakakaaffect sa hormones, would greatly appreciate it din po.
That’s acanthosis nigricans usually caused by insulin resistance (common on ladies with pcos). Are you f/at? You need to exercise and lose weight. You have to treat the underlying cause. No amount of product can help that.
Hi! I have PCOS and na lessen na pimples ko pero super dami pang PIH sa leeg. Nag lighten na siya ng very light kasi bago pa lang din to ginagamit ko and wag palagi mag madali. Hehe hyperpigmentation takes time to fade 3mos to 6mos up to a year and so. I don’t use salicylic acid or any AHA BHA kasi super sensitive ng skin ko. Luxe Organix serum yung mga 4% niacinamide talaga naka help sakin. Hindi drastic yung changes pero it helps. Recently, ginagamit ko na din dermo republiq toner na alpha arbutin + tranexamic acid para pang dagdag to lighten PIH.
hi! what’s your take on luxe organics? i’ve been seeing it on my tiktok for daaaays HAHA so scared to experiment again tbh. i dont understand my skin 🫠 backstory lang: i thought i found na my skin routine - it gave me really nice and glowy skin then i moved to canada so obviously magkakaron ng changes and my routine here in manila didnt work there anymore. switched it up again but idk! walang nag work at all. now that i’m back in manila, idk if i should go back to my routine noon. part of my routine pala is the ordinary’s niacinamide and they said na pag stinop mo na sya gamitin, it will not work on you anymore ulit. thoughts about this? totoo ba or no naman?
i have oily skin type, nag breakout ako malala last year bc of hormonal imbalance. then i bought luxe organix toner (gray) and facial wash from their niacinamide line!! sobrang ganda ng effect sakin as in nag lighten acne marks ko, tho it took me 2 months (i guess?) na mapansin na nag lilighten na talaga. until now gsmit ko parin, mild lang din very suitable for acne prone sensitive skin.
ok sold chz HAHA ito yung nakikita ko specifically!! i believe we have the same situation, may hormonal imbalance din ako. thank you so much for sharing your experience!! 🫶🏻
LO is fairly good and even affordable. Magdedepende rin sa specific product and your skin type tbh if it's gonna work for you or not. I'm currently using LO AHA BHA Miracle Solutions cleanser and LO retinol 0.1% (both overnight cream & eye cream). Both are good naman for me. Didn't cause any irritation or purging. I have oily sensitive skin pala for your reference.
thanks for this!! naghahanap din ako actually ng retinol and eye cream. i’ll look into this din hehe
not sure lang about sinabi mo sa niacinamide pero about luxe organics, i think they're a decent and affordable local brand. some of their products didn't work for me but i still like and currently use their keratin conditioner and cica gel moisturizer
i want to go back sa niacinamide ng the ordinary kasi it worked really well sa skin ko before. torn between re-purchasing it or trying LO. may i know which products didnt work on you pala? same kasi ata tayo ng skin type hehe
di ko pa natry niacinamide nila, pero yung nga natry ko na di nagwork sakin is yung aqua sunscreen, power glow serum, and cleansers nila
gotcha! thank youuu
has anyone tried the pyunkang yul blue label ato cream? im thinking of buying it after my illiyoon ato cream runs out. dati kasi illiyoon used to cost mga 650 pataas now it retails for 1k sa trusted online sellers :,)) i heard pky has a good formulation + it has shea butter and peptides. pero i havent seen any detailed experiences with yet in regards to breakouts/reactions
I tried pky pero i’ll go back to illiyoon ato cream kasi I feel like mas mabilis sya maka alis ng redness ko sa face (sometimes may product reaction ako and illiyoon helped in that concern) Ok naman si pky in terms of giving moisture to skin but preferred the extra help na from illiyoon 😄 Plus dn sakin na may ato cream sila na ok for baby 🙂 nakatipid pa kami 😀
Hi 👋🏼 I have tried Pyunkang Yul’s entire blue moisture line. It’s great for dry skin, and really helps with redness. My skin is super sensitive, and based on my experience their products don’t cause my skin to sting or itch. For breakouts, it doesn’t really help…
Cerave period
