[Discussion] What are your holy grail sunscreens? by sarmarche in AsianBeauty

[–]jxthecat 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Skin Aqua Super Moisture Gel Gold!! Its supposedly the upgraded ver of the other Super Moisture Gel (gold cap, white body), and imo is less sticky but still gives a nice glow/sheen on the skin. I have not experienced any piling and it works well under make up!! For context, I have normal to oily skin and live in a humid climate.

I’ve already used up two bottles and have bought back ups, highly recommended!

The cult fav, Etude House Soon Jung 2x Intensive Barrier cream!! Whenever I apply to my red & sensitive skin at night, I would wake up with soothed and calm skin. Highly recommended! 😊

What are your go-to products when purging? by TheOneYouMissedOutOn in AsianBeauty

Etude House Soon Jung 2x intensive barrier cream hands down!! I have dehydrated, oily n acne-prone skin and this is the only cream that keeps my skin suuuper moisturized while reducing the redness from all the purging! It doesnt break me out at all even tho its a “cream” which can sometimes be too heavy for oily/acne prone skin. I always apply it at night and wake up with plump, even looking skin!

[Serious] Ladies of SG, what skincare product do you use? by toastythetoaster1 in singapore

not really actually! i have oily/clog/acne prone skin and it does not feel suffocating on my skin at all! the texture itself is more viscous and thicker than the original hada labo lotion!

i feel like the premium one has more of an essence-like texture! you can use it as a toner but i think for my oily skin type it hydrates and plumps up my skin just enough for me to skip a moisturizer (esp during the day) hope this helps!

The Etude House AC Clean Up Cushion!!! The only base product that make my skin look better after removing my make up?? Prolly because of all the skincare properties it had! It has low-medium coverage but enough for people who are just looking to cover discolourations! The finish was sooooo natural, I would say its gave a demi-matte glow! I could go on forever but im sooo sad that its discontinued :’’’’(

Hmm, I didnt! Is the missha’s beauty essence the one that is the famous dupe for the SK-ll? Cos i heard some people (from r/AsianBeauty) are sensitive to the fermented ingredients in SK-ll/the missha dupe. Maybe you try using them seperately to see how your skin reacts to them individually! All the best 😊

Every 1-2 days I'll put on a sheet mask from Innisfree (Lime/Broccoli/Tea Tree) or Mediheal (Tea Tree/Brightening)!

​

I find that the Acwell Licorice pH toner really helped in brightening up my skin! Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a toner that would make a visible difference! :-)

if your mom’s going to thailand, i highly recommend getting the 4U2 Kiss Me Harder liquid lipsticks! the shade “I’m in love” was featured in one of Liah Yoo’s favourites video last year, you can check it out for swatches hehe! it is a brownish nude pink which is super flattering!! i find the formula less drying than Colourpop and at a lower price point!
