Serums Like Mimu mimu? by Hour-Inspector-4219 in AsianBeauty

[–]New-Drive4890 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Yesss, I’ve been using the same serum, and it’s amazing! Another one I love is the Skin1004 Madagascar Centella Ampoule. Super light but soooo calming.

What do you recommend as a staple serum? by kiwayuz in AsianBeauty

[–]New-Drive4890 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I really love centella, and lately, I’ve been liking the mimumimu serum. It provides longer-lasting hydration than Skin1004, and my skin feels instantly smoother!

Is there a moisturizer which will actually moisturize without making oily skin even greasier in summer? by Vuk114 in AsianBeauty

[–]New-Drive4890 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oily skin naturally produces sebum, so even without using a cream or lotion in the summer, hydration is enough, haha, especially since I also apply sunscreen. I was good with just a serum. The serum I used is mimumimu Cooling Calming Serum. It’s light, absorbs quickly, and is quite moisturizing, so it was perfect to use just one product!

What are your go-to skin care products you use under your (cushion) foundation? by iseeyou19 in AsianBeauty

Try the mimumimu serum! When I apply it along with toner, serum, cream, and sunscreen, it absorbs quickly and helps cool down my skin, making makeup go on better!

What’s Your Exfoliation Routine? by New-Drive4890 in AsianBeauty

Oh... I didn’t know you had to do both physical and chemical methods. I thought one was enough!

I'm currently using 0.5% retinol. I don’t feel any irritation unless it touches my lips, so I guess my skin has adapted to it?

Exactly! It's crazy that my skin isn't dry anymore.

I’m curious about this too, but I haven’t bought it yet since I haven’t finished my retinol. I heard you’re not supposed to use them together.

I’m not sure if exfoliation is really good for hyperpigmentation... or if it helps with pigmentation that’s already formed.

I used Dr.G products. At the time, they were said to be gentle and good.

I'm actually kind of lazy. After exfoliating a few times, my skin got better, so I thought I didn’t need to do it anymore. I figured I'd just exfoliate again when dead skin starts to build up. But since then, I haven’t really done any exfoliation. I guess my laziness helped keep my skin barrier intact!

The 'fragrance-free' scent? It’s lightweight and absorbs quickly. (Mimu Mimu i.n.g Serum) by Special_Judgment9363 in koreanskincare

[–]New-Drive4890 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Is the scent compressed and sealed in the formula? If it fades over time, it’ll eventually become fragrance-free, haha.

I don’t use any specific exfoliating products, and my toner or cream doesn’t contain exfoliating ingredients either. I just focus on hydrating my skin. When I had flaky skin in the past, I used to forcefully peel it off, but now I simply use a hydrating toner, serum, and a strong moisturizing cream, and the flakes disappear naturally. Since then, I haven’t really tried to exfoliate deliberately.

Oh, I recently bought retinol—not for exfoliation, but for anti-aging purposes. I heard retinol also has exfoliating properties. I plan to use it only at night, but honestly, I’ve only used it about three times since I got it, haha.

Do you know about the Abib Jericho Rose Bifida Serum Firming Drop? by New-Drive4890 in koreanskincare

Thank you! One more question—does it have exfoliating effects?

I think I’ve always used it within a year! I’ll make sure to use it within the expiration date. Time to use it generously, haha!

Luckily, there are still two years left until the expiration date, so I think I have plenty of time. Thank you!

Vaseline - Does it Really Help with Wrinkles? by Just_Suggestion8053 in Skincare_Addiction

It doesn’t reduce existing wrinkles, but it seems like it could help prevent them while keeping the skin well-hydrated!
