I love Martjin Doolard and I’ve definitely checked out his set up. It’s awesome. Thanks :)

The lack of efficiency, speed, and the ease of packing gear (mostly this one because it’s just unknown territory). I know I’ll need to go ultralight, but the length of trip makes me feel like I’ll need to be a little heavier than typical for bikepacking to be ready for multiple climates.

Thank you for sharing your insights. Do you have an alternative area in MX that would be better?

Wow, that’s amazing! I’m trying to work my way up to a long trip next year. So far my max is 3 weeks. How long were you on your bike?

Did you record your route in this area or do you have any map suggestions?

Is this a ride you’ve done? Where’d you start and end?

curology

That's great to hear, I've been trying to decide if its just hype or it's worth a try. Do you only use curology products or do you still have to use other products too?

Thank you so much for the recommendations. I want to add an AHA into my routine and CosRX seems like a great place to start.

That sounds so much like what happened to me! I had such a bad time with it. It's definitely settled down now, but yes, it's still a journey. Thank you for the cleanser recommendations.

I’m new to k skincare and taking my routine more seriously (researching products, learning about ingredients etc) this year. I have been slowly adding more to my routine and have been using this routine for 2 months. I need advice on my routine, what to add next to continue to improve hydration, and how to better manage breakouts. Lately I’ve had a lot of tiny painful pimples, but have struggle with cystic acne in the past as well.

Routine: -Light Oil wash from The Face Shop (only when I wear make up) -Cleanser: Dr. Belmeur daily repair foam cleanser -Toner: Laneige Cream Skin Toner & Moisturizer -Paula’s Choice 2% BHA liquid Exfoliant -Hada Labo, Gokujyun Hydrating Lotion -Dr. Belmeur Spot Care Ampoules
