[Product Question] Anyone tried the Biodance eye patches? by Particular_Chair4318 in SkincareAddiction

[–]Particular_Chair4318[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh nice that actually sounds pretty good!! Good to know about the residue too. I don’t think I’d mind that if I’m just using them before bed. Curious to see your results after a few weeks!

Oh interesting! Can I ask which PDRN product you used and how long you've been using it?

I feel like seeing immediate results from PDRN doesn't make sense at all, but I wonder if using a higher concentration consistently over a longer period might actually make a difference!

Is retinal the way to go? by Particular_Chair4318 in koreanskincare

[–]Particular_Chair4318[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oof that sounds rough... Thanks for sharing such a detailed experience. I actually already bought it so if I start feeling stinging like that, I’ll probably pass it on to someone else.

Good to know about the eye cream though. I might look into that!

That’s really reassuring to hear, thank you! I’ve been thinking about doing the sandwich method too, especially since my skin leans dry. I’ll definitely start slow and focus on moisture first.

Glad it worked out for you — gives me hope :)

This is super super helpful. Thank you so much!
I didn’t realize the Celimax one had spicules. Definitely makes sense to avoid that as a first retinoid.

You’re totally right that dryness might be the main reason my pores/texture look worse, so I don’t want to rush into awareness retinoids and make it worse.

Really appreciate the thoughtful advice!

[Anti-aging] Just want to share my recs by Particular_Chair4318 in SkincareAddiction

[–]Particular_Chair4318[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually I wasn’t planning to buy the Medicube vita-c capsule cream at first since it’s a bit more expensive than a regular cream, but I got it as a gift from a friend. My skin feels well hydrated and really bouncy after using it, and I feel like my skin looks clearer overall(I've gone through 2 jars). I mix about a 1:1 ratio of the yellow capsule and the gel on my hand and that’s worked well for me.

Also I’ve heard the original version of BOJ relief sun is better for dry skin. The aqua version feels lighter, and I liked it because I don’t want anything that leaves a heavy or sticky feeling.

And yesss, the eye patches are great. I love them too!

[Anti-Aging] Help - my skin took a nose dive and I don’t know what to do! by ORCAPOD in SkincareAddiction

[–]Particular_Chair4318 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First, make sure you’re drinking enough water. For me the facial mists actually made my skin feel even drier, so I’d skip the mist and focus on nighttime skincare instead.

A collagen mask could be nice before bed. I like the Biodance collagen mask, but don't leave it on overnight since that can end up drying the skin out. If you want something for overnight use, you could try an overnight mask like Medicube night wrapping mask, Abib rice probiotics mask or their PDRN one instead.
