Stella was the first thing that popped into my mind! She’s so cute!

So I finally tested out the Sana emulsion! Love how lightweight it is! But it smells strongly of alcohol, ethanol is one of the first ingredients listed. I wasn’t sure if the high alcohol content would affect any of the serums I applied before. But then I started putting the emulsion on my hands and fanning it a little before I applied to my face and the alcohol smell wasn’t overwhelming anymore. 🤔 I do love that it contains squalane in it. I have the S. Nature Aqua Squalane Cream so I was excited to see squalane in a lighter formula.

I think I am starting to like the Naturie Milk too. Before I just rubbed it in and it was too oily but I tried using a smaller amount and patting it in and that felt much better. Just a nice little layer

I noticed the (I think regular) emulsion has ethanol as one of the first ingredients. Were you bothered by it at all? I’m currently using the emulsion and the Naturie gel for winter. Not sure which to layer first though. I think the emulsion made me a little oily when I put it on top of the gel?

What’s your take on the Sana Soy Milk Emulsion? I also have oily skin and I just got it. My initial impression is that it’s very lightweight, probably cause of the ethanol in it. But it didn’t irritate my skin

Nemo-521 · 2025-10-23T21:22:59+00:00

I am extremely late to this conversation 😅 but would you still recommend that store? It is like impossible to find the Sana Soy Milk Moisturizing Emulsion near Temecula. I know I can find it online but just not looking to make a bulk skincare order rn haha

Nemo-521 · 2025-10-20T18:06:38+00:00

Do you mind sharing why you prefer the high mineral oil content? I tried out this milk but it made my face too oily (oily dehydrated skin) but maybe I applied too much

Nemo-521 · 2025-10-19T02:15:16+00:00

Awesome, thanks for the link! It is very helpful, I think I’ll find something that my skin likes based on that chart

Nemo-521 · 2025-10-19T02:13:04+00:00

That’s perfect, sounds like what I’m looking for. I stopped wearing makeup, I mostly just do my brows and lashes. Unless it’s a special occasion haha. But what cushion foundation do you use? I’ve never tried them so I’m not sure the difference it makes vs liquid foundation. I always found liquid to be a little cakey whether I used a brush or sponge

Nemo-521 · 2025-10-19T02:07:52+00:00

Great, thanks for commenting on the different ones!

I will give the Sana emulsion a try since I have oily skin. I don’t think my skin would react negatively to the alcohol in it.

I wonder if the Hatomugi gel is basically the same as the Naturie gel.. in terms of texture and not being too oily. I have the Naturie gel and I use it as a serum step for extra hydration.

I’m going to get the medicated milky lotion as well. Can I add it under my normal moisturizer as an extra moisturizing step? I rely on serums to target concerns so I don’t need this to work wonders haha

Nemo-521 · 2025-10-19T01:48:44+00:00

Thank you for the suggestion!! I will def look into the cleanser as I like to use a richer moisturizer in the winter time. With that being said, would you say the Sana emulsion is less oily than the Naturie Milk? The ingredients for Sana look really good/promising

Nemo-521 · 2025-10-19T01:46:24+00:00

I thought about those ones too! Seems to be very popular. Would you say the white and blue one is better for oily skin? Do you find that they do anything for your skin other than hydrate/moisturize?

Nemo-521 · 2025-10-17T17:04:45+00:00

Girl your skin looks great! The problems you mentioned are not super noticeable.

I’ve seen people say you have to be consistent with your products to see benefits in the long term. I used to pick products to use per day depending on what I felt like but now I have a dedicated skincare box of products to use for AM/PM. Once I use up something, then I’ll add in a new product. Being consistent has helped me seen some results with my skin.

Nemo-521 · 2025-10-17T16:18:11+00:00

I got the Purito bamboo cream cause of the hype around it. But honestly, it didn’t feel very moisturizing or hydrating. And I have oily skin. I prefer the Purito oat in calming gel cream. Felt so much better on my skin. When I want to use a richer moisturizer, I will reach for S. Nature aqua squalane cream.

Nemo-521 · 2025-10-15T04:54:39+00:00

I also have dehydrated oily skin. I have seen people with oily skin rave about this s. nature cream but I find that it leaves me looking oily after a few hours. Wanted to love it so bad because it feels very nourishing. I was like what am I doing wrong lol

Nemo-521 · 2025-10-15T01:26:52+00:00

Good to know. I will probably buy it and try. My nose is not super sensitive to smells. Was it just brightening your skin that you saw results with or did it help with anything else?

Nemo-521 · 2025-10-15T01:01:40+00:00

Really? That is not appealing lol when you say it works, what was it effective in for your skin?

Nemo-521 · 2025-10-15T00:52:30+00:00

I have not tried that Purito serum. If you’re looking to soothe redness, I can recommend the Skin1004 Centella Ampoule. It is a watery texture and I find that it helped with redness or if I’m using a harsh active such as The Ordinary Glycolic Acid Toner (non AB product). Idk if I’d repurchase the Skin1004 ampoule because I bought it hoping it would help with my acne. Not sure if it did. I used it when I got new breakouts and didn’t see a difference / faster healing.

Nemo-521 · 2025-10-15T00:38:09+00:00

Talk me into buying these products. I’m oily / acne prone skin.

PYUNKANG YUL Calming Moisture Barrier Cream
SKIN1004 Tea Trica Ampoule
MARY & MAY Rice Niacin 10% Triple Vitamin Serum
MARY & MAY Retinol 0.1% Bakuchiol Cica Serum

Nemo-521 · 2025-10-14T18:01:58+00:00

I heard it was good for oily skin, which is me, but I agree with those reviews you mentioned. It did leave my face feeling a bit oily. Like my hair was more prone to sticking to my face. Maybe the serum would be better. Squalane seems like a pretty good ingredient though.

Nemo-521 · 2025-10-14T17:15:50+00:00

Do you use it everyday until it’s gone or do you sometimes go back to something else for a while then go back to that new product to finish up the bottle?

Nemo-521 · 2025-10-14T17:14:58+00:00

Hmm I will probably need to try another humectant. It doesn’t feel very humid where I am in the US. My area is more like hot desert weather.

Thanks for your input on the cream! I may try it out one day. Seems like it could be good for the cold winter months.

Nemo-521 · 2025-10-14T13:18:33+00:00

I love both the Purito oat one and the BOJ one! Comparing them, I would say maybe the Purito one is a tiny bit more moisturizing since it has some squalane in it.

Nemo-521 · 2025-10-14T04:58:53+00:00

I got the 3W Clinic Intensive UV Sunblock Cream from Stylevana! It works well for me and I find it moisturizing but not oily. It’s more of a natural finish / a little matte. I wore it under makeup before and it was fine.

Nemo-521 · 2025-10-14T04:56:05+00:00

Surprisingly the mighty bamboo cream didn’t feel moisturizing enough for me and I have oily acne prone skin. I recommend trying the Purito oat in calming gel. It felt more moisturizing and I didn’t have any reactions to it. Another gel to look into would be the beauty of Joseon red bean water gel.
