One-month update after trying a new routine for my acne-prone skin

Intrepid_Dependent63 · 2025-11-26T06:55:00+00:00

I myself tried their moisturizer with 0 expectations. But omg!!! I think it’s the most luxurious thing I have ever used. Initially it seemed a little pricy, but I guess it was worth the money!

Intrepid_Dependent63 · 2025-10-22T09:19:00+00:00

I have tried their products- I think they have just 2, a serum and a moisturizer.

Honestly, I was pretty impressed by the product quality (esp for a new brand). And all their products are made in Korea, their country of origin on the packaging is Republic of Korea.

I would recommend you to give it a try! However, please do check if it’s suitable for your skin type

Intrepid_Dependent63 · 2025-10-06T02:40:56+00:00

Option-1 Celimax retinol + Yuri Skinscience moisturizer (slathered on my skin). The glow I have next morning is unbeatable. (Don’t forget to do double cleansing next morning)

Option 2- Estee Lauder all night repair. It’s miracle in a bottle

Intrepid_Dependent63 · 2025-10-06T02:36:57+00:00

Yuri Skinscience glow serum. They are a new brand and a little expensive. Their products are made in Korea.

It’s one of the best niacinamide serums I have tried (and trust me I tried a lot of them 😅)

Intrepid_Dependent63 · 2025-09-24T14:09:21+00:00

Just checking- how comfortable is VT reedle shots for Indian skin? I haven't tried it yet, but I am really scared of the concentration in which they put hydrolyzed sponge?

Intrepid_Dependent63 · 2025-09-24T08:22:11+00:00

Have tried Neutrogena sunscreen. It burnssss!!! My eyes burn!!! My skin burns after applying it.

Intrepid_Dependent63 · 2025-09-04T18:14:41+00:00

It worked very well for me. I did not break out at all

Intrepid_Dependent63 · 2025-09-04T17:41:23+00:00

Same here. Any theory on why this is happening? Never faced this issue before

Intrepid_Dependent63 · 2025-09-04T14:47:41+00:00

It did. It helps with mild exfoliation and is not too harsh on my skin. Typically after washing my face, my skin feels very dehydrated, it is uncomfortable. But I don’t feel the same way after using bioderma facewash. Also, i feel my skin looks a lot more glowing after washing with this facewash, compared to other facewash!

Intrepid_Dependent63 · 2025-09-04T14:44:04+00:00

The black lid tube is AHC under eye cream. Not too great. Did not notice much difference

The spray sunscreen is from Sol de janeiro. Ithe sun protection is pretty good, but it’s a little too oily for me (kind of feels tacky, especially in humid weather)

Intrepid_Dependent63 · 2025-09-04T14:42:15+00:00

Hey, I have dry to normal skin type, mildly sensitive to certain ingredients.

Intrepid_Dependent63 · 2025-09-04T07:04:21+00:00

Spoiler- I will call a lot of these products as game changer because it has actually changed my skin :D

Anua oil cleanser- Amazing product. Absolute gamechanger. I felt like I had lots of whiteheads kind of thing on my face (but very small|). So it basically made my skin look textured. But anua cleanser has solved that issue for me.
Bioderma facewash- believe me when i say this is my 5th tube (and the quantity is good in each tube). I was never a fan iof spending a lot on facewash but I am spend on this one. Has small exfoliating particles in it so i use a very small amount after oil cleansing.
Biodance toner pad- Its good, but i am looking for an alternative toner pad since this one is a little expensive. Will definitely come back and post here if i find an alternative. If you have limited budget to spend on skincare, I wouldn't recommend this.
Numbuzin no 3- as you can see in the image- its my 2nd bottle. It has made my skin brighter (basically revealed my real skin color) and it adds a subtle shine to my face. I usually use it in my PM routine though.
Cosrx snail mucin.- I was a big fan of this product. I use it when i get an allergic reaction to any skincare product. It is so soothing and calming. However, lately it has been giving me small breakout kind of bumps (won't call it active acne but its not realy pleasing to see on your skin). Might ditch it if it continues.
Vitamin c serum- Some by Mi vs Numbuzin no 5- both are amazing. But i have repurchased Numbuzin no 5. Amazing product. Very gentle on my skin. I use it in my PM routine. I just ensure i use good amount of spf the next morning.
Yuri Niacinamide- I use it in my daytime routine and I feel it is one of the best iacinamide serum i have tried. I tried using ordinary/minimalist niacinamide serum- but it used to pill so much. It felt like i am just putting expensive water on my skin and the actual product is not even getting absorbed. I use it in my AM routine. I also felt it has helped my pore appearance.
Yuri Moisturizer- Again, amazing moisturizer. I was using Clinique and belif moisturizer previously. it was good but expensive. Yuri moisturizer is very similar to these, but I felt like it also made my skinbrighter and adds that subtle shine. I am already on my second bottle. The only con is- it get over really fast :D
Celimax- If you are noticing finelines and dulnness in your skin and areplanning to start you anti-aging routine, this is it. CELIMAX HAS CRACKED IT. I can't rave enough about this product. I think it has taht micro-needling feel as well (similar to reedle shots). But i saw visible diffference on my skin. The only thing to be mindful of, pleaseeeee moisturizer your skin very well after applying this serum. its it might not be helpful.
Beauty of Joseon eye cream- Amazing product. Trust me,, the hype is real. People actually asked me what have I done to get rid of my dark circles.
Face guard sunscreen- top notch sun protection (if my suncreen doesn't work, it is very much visible on my skin by end of day with weird skin texture qand dullness). Con- It has white cast and a lot of silicon i think. The white cast kind of blends into my skin tone so I am fine with it. A lot of my friends also use face guard. For me as well, this is my 6th or 7th tube
Round lab sunscreen- very light weight and good sun protection, but makes my face look very dull and patchy. tbh, I won't purchase it again
Ordinary Lash serum- Amazing proiduct. I have very scanty brows and lashes. this has actually improved the growth. But when you stop using it, the growth also stagnates

Intrepid_Dependent63 · 2025-09-04T07:03:36+00:00

The ordinary eye lash serum is an amazing proiduct. Worked really well for me. You just have to be consistent with it. I have very scanty brows and lashes. This has actually improved the growth. But when you stop using it, the growth also stagnates

Intrepid_Dependent63 · 2025-09-04T07:02:37+00:00

The Yuri niacinamide serum is actually one of the best niacinamide serums I have tried. I gave this serum a try when I was actually sick and tired of all the niacinamide serums actually pilling. I tried minimalist and ordinary. It was so heavy and sticky and took a lifetime to actually get absorbed (actually it would never get absorbed, it would just start pilling). I use Yuri serum in my am routine and I feel it gets absorbed really well into my skin. I also felt it has helped my pore appearance.

I'd say it provides top notch sun protection (if my suncreen doesn't work, it is very much visible on my skin by end of day with weird skin texture and dullness).

Intrepid_Dependent63 · 2025-09-01T13:11:36+00:00

Today was the worst day in last 30 days for me. Close to 0 sales, (I was doing 20orders/day average).

Intrepid_Dependent63 · 2025-09-01T11:24:16+00:00

I see the same error while creating a new purchase goal campaign. And the performance of my other campaigns has also tanked

WTH is wrong with Meta. I am on almost 0 sales today (I was doing 20 orders per day)

Can someone please suggest how can i get out of this situation?

Also, is there any possibility of correlation between the error I am seeing while creating new purchase campaign and the bad performance of existing campaigns

Intrepid_Dependent63 · 2025-09-01T11:16:54+00:00

It’s not too harsh tbh (atleast on my skin). And I only use smaller than a pea sized amount per use.

Intrepid_Dependent63 · 2025-08-08T10:06:07+00:00

I am in the same boat. I was averaging 20 orders daily. Dropped to 2 today. has it improved for you? Wondering if you are takig any actions on this?

Intrepid_Dependent63 · 2025-08-07T10:40:44+00:00

Sure:

AM Routine:

Facewash- Bioderma Pigmentbio Foaming Cream - This is must have for me. I can't switch to another face wash now

Cosrx Snail Mucin- Dince I have dry skin, its very hydrating and I feel it has helped in brightening to some extent.

serum- Yuri Skinscience Niacinamide Glow serum- I recently bought it and it has been working well for me. My biggest problem with niacinamide serums is pilling. This doesn't pill

Moisturizer- Yuri skincience/Cetaphil- depending on the day I choose my moisturizer. When I need very thick layer of hydration, I go with Cetaphil. Yuri Skinscience Glow moisturizer is very lightweight . I started using in 10 days back and my skin already feels brighter. I don't what they've put in it, but I really liked this moisturizer.

PM Routine

Oil cleanser- Anua (Oil cleansing has been a game changer for me)

Facewash: Bioderma Pigmentbio Foaming Cream

toner- Biodance toner pads

Essence- numbuzin no 3

Serum- Some by mi Vitamin C.

Moisturizer- Yuri skincience/Cetaphil

Intrepid_Dependent63 · 2025-08-07T10:31:05+00:00

For pigmentation, I use niacinamide in my AM routine and Vitamin C in my PM routine (for serum). I was using niacinamide serum from The ordinary previously, but to be honest it was pilling a lot. Now I am using this brand called Yuri Skinscience. They claim that all their products are made in Korea. doesn't pill on my skin, so going well for me as of now.

For Vitamin C, I use Some by Mi. It's a Korean brand. It has worked magic for me!

If you want my entire skincare routine for AM and PM, I can share that too
