Omg guys IT WORKS
I am a believer. Korean skincare actually works! About me: Fitzpatrick skin type II (pale, freckles, almost always burns in the sun). Skin is normal to dry. Some hormonal acne on the chin, otherwise no major skin issues. I wanted my skin to look brighter and hopefully make my freckles fade. Added are two pictures taken a few weeks apart. In the first one there are slight bruises under the eyes from surgery, please ignore those. My skin looks much brighter and l would say the freckles are a little less noticeable too. It looks much better in person - the iPhone 14 front facing camera makes everyone's skin look worse, l swear Apple are trying to ruin your self-esteem.. The routine: Numbuz:n vitamin C and niacinamide pad and Numbuz:n vitamin C serum in the morning Anua 70+ rice and ceramide toner (l use A LOT) and Skin1004 brightening ampoule at night That's all l have changed recently. All the other K-favourites like my VT Cica Reedle shot 🩷🩷🩷 l have been using for some time, so the brightening is from the new products. No ads, l pay for all my products 100% with my own hard-earned money.4 products in post Omg guys IT WORKS - 1 day

Hair disaster storytime
Back in 2022 l had long hair (down past the elbows) dyed a dark brown. My scalp got sensitized to hair dye (maybe PPD) so l had to stop coloring it. A fancy and *expensive* salon promised me they could get me back to my real hair color. Well long story short after two bleachings my hair was in such horrendous condition that it basically crumbled away 🙀. Since I hadn't learned anything at all I went to another very expensive salon to try to fix things and they turned my hair... CARROT ORANGE 😭 From that moment on I promised myself that I would grow my hair back in my natural color and in good health no matter what. Now it's 2025, the hair isn't perfect but it's the best that it has been in years! I promise to share everything l learned about haircare during this nightmare. But for now just know that there is hope no matter how bad your situation looks! 🩷465 viewsto leave a comment - 3 days

Cool skincare
Especially in the summer it's so nice to have skin care in the fridge. Especially C vitamin serums can stay fresh a little longer in the cold. And on warm days it's just nice to have something cool and refreshing on your skin!636 viewsto leave a comment - 1 weekRating: 5 out of 5
Easy to use
I got these toner pads from Numbuz:n to help brighten my skin and hopefully even out my freckles. They are easy to use; just take a pad, swipe it over your face or press it against your cheeks and let it sit for a while. There is no scent at all which is nice. The pads are completely soaked with toner so you don’t have to worry about them drying out. #lykoreview1 product in post Easy to use728 viewsto leave a comment - 1 week

Pretty good!
This is a foundation stick that feels pretty creamy when you apply it, and it's quite easy to blend out. I would say the coverage is light to medium, and not particularly buildable – you just get a lot of product on your face. I have normal to dry skin, and this doesn't feel drying for me. It stays creamy for a good while before it dries. Once it has dried, it actually sits quite well, especially if you put a little powder on top. There's a lot of product in the tube, so it should last a long time. I have shade 100. I would recommend it to people with normal skin (not oily) who want light coverage. Maybe not the best out there, but for this price, it's pretty okay! [hashtag]Translated from swedish
