    Also sunscreen changed my whole skincare game. Barely any new whiteheads and PIH has improved dramatically, mostly contained within the acne scars. Rosacea is completely gone and my nose doesnā€™t look like Iā€™ve been in a boxing match anymore.

    What some important things to look out for if u want some QUALITY sunscreen?

    As light as possible while as protective as possible
    No pilling
    No whitecast
    Good finish
    Not incredibly expensive(youā€™re gonna buy this a lot)

    You mention EUROPEAN sunscreens which makes me think you are EUROPEAN and if you are EUROPEAN then what are your FAVORITE Asian brands and where do you purchase them?

    A couple of recent pickups that turned out to be grails:

    SKIN 1004: MADAGASCAR CENTELLA LIGHT CLEANSING OIL

    This was an incredible purchase, I got it as a random sample and was stunned by the consistency and effectivity. It's an oil based cleanser that transforms to a water based once you add some water. You no longer need a second cleanser. It has made my skin very soft and glowing.

    Lightweight, multifunctional cleanser thoroughly removes makeup and impurities from skin while offering some extra nourishment. Coconut-derived MCT oil combined with cica extract as well as six kinds of botanical oils deliver a refreshing, skin-soothing and pore-tightening finish.

    APOTHAKA: Skin Quenching light moisturizer

    This is a fantastic moisturizer for the summer - light, velvety yet hydrating. On those hot summer days, a heavy cream can feel too greasy and gross which is where this is a fantastic substitute. Created by an indie brand from the UK, formulated without fragrance or essential oils & alcohol. Suitable for all skin types, especially for normal-combination and oily skin. Can also be used as a hydrating serum for drier skin types.

    Urea: Urea is part of the natural moisturising factor (NMF) of skin, it retains moisture and is essential for maintaining the health, function and hydration of the stratum corneum. Sodium PCA: another component of skinā€™s NMF which increases water content in the top layer of the skin and helps to maintain a healthy skin. Olive squalane: lightweight and easily absorbed, squalane softens and protects the skin and helping to seal in moisture - providing a degree of occlusion without feeling heavy. Skin replenishing ceramide complex: key components of your skinā€™s natural lipid mix that help to form a protective layer.

    I just got my nose pierced and I want to keep up with my skincare routine but my piercer said to keep the place clean for at least a month or two. Any tips on how to do both?

    Ngl the under eye skincare department is lacking so I wanna know if these help in any shape or form
    Also does vaseline under the eyes help with anything? Is it good to apply before any kind of exfoliation?

    can be both, some are and some arenā€™t. you have to try the sunscreen and see if itā€™s heavy enough to double as both or light enough to just be a spf

    sunscreen is always the last step. so moisturize then put sunscreen on
