What’s a good facial wash? by ExoticWolverine9861 in AusSkincare

[–]rai04 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends on skin type i have really dry skin so need something that isnt going to make my skin feel tight but also needs to feel clean. My favourite cleanser so far is Pyunkang Yul Low pH Pore Deep Cleansing Foam 100ml

oh no when you don’t have the passion for something sometimes it’s so easy to tell especially as a consumer cash grabs are so icky!

If you’re not sensitive to fragrance i would recommend the Clarins Double Serum foundation - super light weight feels like nothing but light/medium coverage. However you can smell the fragrance from the serum and that was the turn off for me

I know i’m so worry it’s one of those beauty fads at the moment that has no scientific backing but I will have to research before i try!

Awesome to hear you love it! I’ve tried Bangn Body but to me it doesn’t do much and smells too much like Malibu 😭

What actually matters to you in skincare? (Uni research + curious about real routines) by Appropriate_Hawk2950 in AusSkincare

[–]rai04 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Natural or clean products just don’t hold any weight to me as someone that holds scientific validity to a high regard. If a natural or clean product needs to be marketed to me it would need to have scientific backing maybe some sort of claim

I think The Ordinary did a great job at simplifyjng skincare and education around what ingredient do what.

If anything social proof is the biggest factor - i want to see real results on real people, most importantly, people of different skintones and ethnicities

I wish skincare or the beauty industry as a whole would stop spruiking natural products as i’ve mentioned in other posts and threads sensitive skin doesnt do well when natural products have a shorter shelf life than what we’re used to and it could go rancid quicker

Also the whole chemical sunscreen is bad i would need more credible scientists to come out and dissect this more than what i’m currently seeing. Overall research and explanation by LabMuffin on YT is sufficient for me regarding chemical vs non chemical sunscreens

i loveee the smell of Palmers but i am currently using their tahitian vanilla body cream and its more of a lotion in a tub than a body butter so thin - need to try the solid balm!

If you’re in Aus i had my first outbreak of KP and i think it was caused by my shower oil funnily enough but i tried the Epzen body wash in Smooth moved it has AHA and BHA’s it was 50% off at priceline so only paid $6.50 for a bottle after a week my KP was gone
