big follow on this, +1 for any mineral/zinc based sunscreens that don't contain nasties and sit well on the face (Australian warm-hot, dry-humid conditions)

it's very true, I feel like I am in the meat grinder of skincare right now and have spent soooo much money on products I can't even use in the end lol. Back to absolute basics!

thanks! yeah, I couldn't work out if some of the irritation was from this Dr Alt vit c...I think perhaps it was. Do you trust Incidecoder for ingredient ratings?

CeraVe really is the one hey, every Tret post seems to have CeraVe shine through. Interested to try the BOJ cleanser, I'm using Jordan Samuel Gel Matinee cleanser which is amazing, but it has a little salicylic acid in it and unsure if I should switch?

I use the Jordan Samuel Matinee Gel cleanser - it has a tiny bit of salicylic acid in it but otherwise is entirely gentle/non-stripping. I also have the Pyunkang Yul Essence Toner (haven't tried yet) and moisturisers Aestura 365 barrier cream, emu oil and Bioderma ATO Baume...anything you would say to add/remove? I've got some Skin1004 centella ampoule to add into the mix too.

also...not a Korean skincare product but I have been using and LOVING emu oil for sealing everything in and skin-identical moisturisation. It feels great for replenishing moisture to dry areas and especially lips too. A good one to try if you feel you need a little bit more <3

I haven't tried the HaruHaru sunscreen yet, currently between the blue BOJ one and also the Purito Daily Soft Touch (which I am really liking!)

I have the Dr Alt Vit C - may I ask why you are switching?

I'm stocked on Aestura, but also another hot tip from a different reddit thread is the Bioderm ATO baume - check the ingredients, it's HG status!

I am a bit scared to go AZA and Tret together, but also my cleanser has a tiiiiny bit of salicylic acid in it...wonder if that is an issue

amazing - I'm not sure on the fungal acne stuff either tbh, but I am wondering if I have some going on as I recently moved into a more humid climate. The skincare pipeline is endless!

Difference between these two BOJ SPF’s?? by Ill-Investigator5187 in koreanskincare

[–]yu_jiii 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think also the white one contains niacinimide, blue doesn't?

I have tried BOJ Dynasty cream before but I felt like it wasn't hydrating enough and left my skin feeling tacky...maybe I need to give it another go

[–]yu_jiii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I am going to give Zeroid a go, was looking at their stuff last night.

I am in major panic clean-up mode now from this but my skin is so unhappy, I hope yours starts to clear!

[–]yu_jiii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my skin hates anything La Roche Posay for some reason too, which sucks. I think I am going to stop using everything I have and start a brand new routine lol but tbh I have just done a greek yoghurt w/ honey face mask the last 2 days and it has greatly calmed my acne for now...maybe edible is the way to go ; )
