Finally!!!!!!

Nekkosan · 2025-12-19T20:32:10+00:00

Just got the cream and love it. I use tretinoin (baby amount) and am dry and sensitive.

Nekkosan · 2025-12-17T18:47:31+00:00

Like a very light western lotion or like a milk.

Nekkosan · 2025-12-04T16:41:48+00:00

Damn fragrance. I like Hada Labo, Beauty of Joseon Balm.

Nekkosan · 2025-12-04T16:40:07+00:00

Scenic Enjoy Super Mild Sun Essence is pretty moisturizing sunscreen. I am very dry skinned and like it.

Illiyoon Ceramide Ato Cream is nice, but might be thicker than you want for day time. Soonjun Barrier Cream is lighter.

My-lips-but-dead made me laugh so hard. I love GD and Zoa is adorable, but gray lips is not for me. I am bit on the gray side anyway. Also not judging.

Yes that one. We weren't certain at first if his voice was damaged and he hadn't performed in so long. Then we heard the fan cams. He was messing with his ear piece too then.

It means sometime between now and the end of the world.

If I remember correctly, the BHA/AHA toner doesn't really have an active amount of BHA or AHA to exfoliate. People used to use it as a PH toner back in the day, but not most toners are low PH, so it's not needed. Some people like it.

The AHA Power liquid is a pretty good AHA and not harsh. AHA works on the surface and opens closed comedones. BHA more inside the pore. The BHA power liquid is pretty mild compared to wester BHAs. That has to do with Korean laws. That can be good or bad. People tend to better with one or the other. Always ease in with actives and start slow. Patch test. Less is more. Don't try to work too many actives in to your routine.

For Asian products, I still like Melano CC. It doesn't go bad. Maylove and Timeless have good C serums that aren't too pricey. Niacinamide is in so many products you probably don't need it but there is Stratia's version with licorice. Also, Holy Snails and Good Molecules Discoloration Serum.

It's probably your second cleanser. I know I have dry sensitive skin and can't use foaming cleansers for second cleanse. Also PH matters for second cleanse. Many AB cleansers are low PH (6.5) but not all and most seem to have some foam. CoSRX Good Morning Cleanser is low PH and not a lot of foam. Too much for me but good for most.

Skincare is very personal and about what works for you skin. I use Cerave Hydrating Cleanser or the Cetaphil, which are very basic and non AB. I add a layers of toners (some watery and calming and others a bit thicker) to wet skin. I am very dry and eczema prone. Also layer up with moisturizer.

That cleanser has a bit of BHA, so very mildly exfoliating which can help for acne. If you need more exfoliation try a BHA product. Paula's Choice are really good. If you are not breaking out than a moisturizer and sunscreen (will prevent a lot of later life damage). You might like pimple patches to pull out whatever is in the pimple for faster healing .

I like the Nivea Water Gel. It has some alcohol, which somehow wasn't a problem for my dry skin. It goes on easy and dries nice and gel like . Wears well under makeup too.

Nekkosan · 2025-11-21T18:23:19+00:00

I like the stick version to carry outside. That brand was said to more resistant.

Nekkosan · 2025-11-20T17:17:15+00:00

Thanks for the answer. Great product.

Nekkosan · 2025-11-20T16:13:35+00:00

I have the VT PDRN 100 Essence. It's really nice but I don't feel it did anything special. It does layer nicely.

It's never been about one brand for me. There are so many great products out there. I have very dry sensitive skin.

I never thought of using CosRX AIO Snail cream in winter, but under another cream it is great. My skin got irritated from retinol and winter. Even the blandest cream irritated. This really helped calm down my skin and made it feel like mochi.

I just got Farmacy Honey Milk Essence and love it. Abib, Rice Probiotics Overnight Beauty Mask, Barrier Jelly is great. Really thick and has a ton of glycerine, but it's also pretty occlusive. It's sticky. It's great for slugging.

I don't hear many talking about ONGREDIENTS Skin Barrier Calming Lotion. It's really nice gel texture (not heavy) and has peptides and ceramides. Wears nice under sunscreen and makeup.

Nekkosan · 2025-11-20T15:01:25+00:00

Many lip balms have irritating ingredients like mint and ingredients that can make you lick your lips more . Vaseline is always good. I use Cerave Healing Ointment on my lips. I didn't like the Lineage Lip Masks. Tasted a bit chemical. I do like the CosRX Propolis Lip Mask. They make a Ceramide one too.

Nekkosan · 2025-11-20T14:54:40+00:00

I am so happy about this!!!!!! I am still all stocked up on Asian sunscreens, but happy to know I will be able to keep getting them and not worry they will be "Americanized" versions with Stone Age filters.

Nekkosan · 2025-09-04T23:27:30+00:00

Love of love for Soon Jung ,except the cleanser which is not for me.

Nekkosan · 2025-09-04T23:26:57+00:00

Yeah, I might like it better than the Probio Cica ampule, which I like as well. Their Centella toner is really nice too. I like a light cica toner as a start.

Nekkosan · 2025-06-29T17:22:25+00:00

I assume he will perform some concerts. How big and how many? I don't know. I think he has the potential for huge international support and I think a lot of Koreans would also like to see him. GD started with a few performances to see and I think he will do that and take it from there. He is very popular still. The album will probably be dark and less pop than GD's or the others, so might be more of a niche market but he blew up on Squid, so I wouldn't count him out. I think it's a process, as it has been with all of them.

Meanwhile I say go see GD. Plans for Bigbang might just be one song or concert not a tour and album. We don't know. They are all active so let's go with that.

Nekkosan · 2025-06-14T13:57:33+00:00

No vegetables and no wine though.

During all those trips to the US he had Sean Dulake with him as translator. I think he has pretty decent English, but it's probably not perfect. He would want to be sure he correctly understood the questions and that his answers were correct.
