SOME BY MI AHA BHA PHA 30 Days Miracle Serum



SOME BY MI AHA BHA PHA 30 Days Miracle Serum comes in a dark green plastic bottle.  You can still see the amount of products inside the bottle.  It contains moisture layer and an oil layer so make sure to shake up the bottle before using.  If not, you probably will get a lot of oil or just the water.  The serum has a greenish light liquid with slight oil appearance.  Once applied on the skin, the liquid absorbs onto the skin, is not sticky and leave a slight dewy glow appearance.  It can sting a little if you use on open wound but it is not more than few seconds.  The moisture layer is locked up by the oil layer so if you are using any essence, use them before this SOME BY MI AHA BHA PHA 30 Days Miracle Serum.


Since it contains actives ingredients, make sure to use sunscreen.  It is not nice to undone all the good done by this serum or not seeing any results.

SOME BY MI AHA BHA PHA 30 Days Miracle Serum smells citrusy which doesn’t linger.  It works well under makeup and control my skin from being too oily by the end of the day.  I use this serum twice a day for two weeks.  I have recent hormonal breakouts caused by stress and not eating well.

As for the ingredients, SOME BY MI AHA BHA PHA 30 Days Miracle Serum doesn’t contain 20 harmful ingredients on the skin.  It has skin protecting patent ingredients "Multi X BSASM" which helps with healing and soothing the red acne prone skin.  There are many actives, plant extract and plant oils so do check out the ingredients first.  My skin was not irritated by any of the ingredients but still check out the ingredients first.

SOME BY MI AHA BHA PHA 30 Days Miracle Serum does show results on my skin given that my skin likes tea tree and centella asiatica.  It doesn't burn the skin or making it more red even when it contains tea tree water.

The serum calms the skin and it does speed up the duration of the whiteheads and prevent blackheads from forming on my skin.  As for those underground acne, it does bring those up to the surface faster and reduce the severity of another popping on its place.  It takes about one week for the underground acne to go away with this serum. If I don’t use it, the underground acne just stay there and never leave.  As for cystic acne, it does reduce the damage and reduce the size after 2 days of usage.  ow fast the serum shows result depends on how severe is your acne.  So if you have those underground acne, your skin will have those purging(purging means acne looks worse before getting better) in that area for about 1-2 weeks before those acne heals on its own without adding other skincare products.


I do find that SOME BY MI AHA BHA PHA 30 Days Miracle Serum prevents more acne forming on my face and treat the existing acne without leaving scars. I do need to be consistent too to see results.  As for making my face pinkish glowing, I haven’t seen that yet since it is only two weeks.

Overall, SOME BY MI AHA BHA PHA 30 Days Miracle Serum is nice serum for those that don’t have allergic to the ingredients, like tea tree, actives and is having acne prone skin.  I think it is better than using toner only since this shows faster result since I have no patience.  If you really want faster results like on the advertisement, then I think you do need to use the whole range of the products instead of just the toner.

REVIEW ON SKIN1004 MADAGASCAR CENTELLA-ASIATICA 100 AMPOULE

Hi beautifuls ❤ ,

Skin1004 Madagascar Centella-Asiatica 100 Ampoule products have been blowing up on social media in Korea for soothing acne prone skin and I just have to get it.  I was excited and have been using it for about a month along with some other products.  I think by now, most reader would know that I have been loving centella asiatica products since few years ago and they work really well on my acne prone sensitive skin without burning my skin. 

Centella asiatica is also a plant that is found in South East Asia and in Madagascar which you can actually eat it too.  It is safe even for pregnant mothers since it is herbs used post child birth to speed up healing during confinement.

Skin1004 Madagascar Centella-Asiatica 100 Ampoule


Skin1004 Madagascar Centella-Asiatica 100 Ampoule

Skin type: All skin types
How to use: Apply a couple of drops evenly onto the skin and gently tap in for better absorption.

Key Ingredients:
Asiaticoside 30% - Improves the water-to-oil balance of the skin
Asiactic acid 30%- Strengthens the skin's barrier and has antioxidant effects for anti-aging
Madecassic acid 40%- Repairs damaged skin and evens out scar tissue

Centella Asiatica extract 100%



Skin1004 Madagascar Centella-Asiatica 100 Ampoule comes in a frosted bottle with dropper in it.  

For the ingredients, there is only one ingredient with the three component of centella asiatica in it. I don’t think there is preservative but the product seems fine even when I don’t place it inside the fridge. Centella asiatica has the ability to speed up healing and protect skin from damage.

The liquid is slightly yellowish  with slight viscosity to it. There is a faint plant scent but it is not prolong. I have been using it for a month with a week with just this ampoule alone and the other weeks with other products. This is a multi uses products. I have use it as mist, sheet mask and also layering it as toner.

Skin1004 Madagascar Centella-Asiatica 100 Ampoule absorbs into my skin fast without stickiness or residue if you pat it onto your skin. I find that it is a gentle skincare products that helps with healing my skin when I pick my skin, reduce redness from the hot weather and breakouts. It does work on healing whiteheads but not on acne prevention, I don’t see it actually since I still breakout in cystic acne when I eat dairy and high sugary food. I think this is a products that speed up healing, hydrate the skin reduce acne damage, reduce red scars and dark scars. I use it with my neem powder and the centella powder which works really great together.

Overall, Skin1004 Madagascar Centella-Asiatica 100 Ampoule is a great gentle product for speeding up healing, reduce acne damage, reduce redness and hydrate the skin well for any skin type.

REVIEW ON iUNIK BLACK SNAIL RESTORE SERUM

Hi Snail lovers,

Snails is an ingredient popularised by the Korean beauty industry that I don't need any introduction on this magical or gross! to some  😰

It was a hype ingredient that stay in trends through all the fast moving Kbeauty world.  The In ingredients for unique Korean skincare product, quicken the healing of acne scars, hydrating to dry acne prone skin type and for those with damaged skin barrier.

This is a review on iUNIK Black Snail Restore Serum with the snail ingredient as the first ingredient.

​INGREDIENTS:
Snail Secretion Filtrate, Centella Asiatica Leaf Water, Methylpropanediol, Glycerin, Niacinamide, Glycereth-26,Water, 1,2-Hexanediol, Sodium Hyaluronate, Saccharomyces/Viscum Album (Mistletoe) Ferment Extract, Lactobacillus/Soybean Ferment Extract, Laminaria Japonica Extract,Glycine Soja (Soybean) Seed Extract,Oryza Sativa (Rice) Extract, Sesamum Indicum (Sesame) Seed Extract, Solanum Melongena (Eggplant) Fruit Extract, Saccharomyces/Imperata Cylindrica Root Ferment Extract, Caprylyl Glycol,Butylene Glycol,Allantoin,Centella Asia Tica Extract, Glycyrrhiza Glabra (Licorice) Root Extract, Artemisia Vulgaris Extract,Vaccinum Angustifolium (Blueberry) Fruit Extract, Ginkgo Biloba Leaf Extract,Rosa Canina Fruit oil,Carbomer,Arginine, Pentylene Glycol, Adenosine, Ethylhexylglycerin, Xanthan Gum, Aspalathus Linearis Extract

iUNIK Black Snail Restore Serum comes in a glass dropper style 50ml bottle which is really classy and at the price of USD 15.49 I do think it is very affordable.

Let's talk about the ingredients, there is no artificial fragrant or colouring and focus more on effective ingredients.
The star ingredient which is snail is the first ingredient in their list of ingredients which ensure that you get what you pay for.  They use centella asiatica leaf water to help with the calming and healing.

There are many ferments and plant extract which helps with healing, hydration, calming and brightening.  Ingredients such as Blueberry, rice, licorice, gingko extract and rosehip are great to help with wrinkles and healing the skin. I do think their ingredients are great for this serum.

It contains high snail secretion filtrate so it has some viscosity to it.  It is not sticky, absorb fast into the skin and provide moisture at the same time. I can forgo my thicker moisturiser on days the weather is too hot and humid.  It does help to heal my skin from redness and when I picked on my acne.

Snails is great for healing and for moisturising when the hype exploded 5 years ago.  The rave has not end since snail is still one of the ingredients love by many for the healing ability.  With the high competitive cosmetics in Korea, it has to be something good for it to stay this long.

You can also use this UNIK Black Snail Restore Serum on cuts to fasten the healing process.  One can use it to hydrate and heal skin from over exfoliation too.

While some people may think that snail ingredient is for anti aging, that is not true since snails mucin is mainly for soothing, hydrate the skin without being too heavy and protecting the skin from further damage.

However, there are some people who cannot use snails so do test it on a small part of your face first or behind your ears for a day.

Overall, iUNIK Black Snail Restore Serum is recommended for people who love snail ingredients, dry acne prone skin type and to deal with redness. I personally do think that this serum is great for hydration and soothing ability.  Big bottle with affordable price too.

Always21 Nature Refresh Mask Sheet – Acai Berry, Grapefruit , Gold Kiwi, Pomegranate, Green Apple.  Each of the mask has the same ingredients except for their Star ingredient. If their Star ingredient is grapefruit, then grapefruit extract is in written with the amount(ppm) of what they put inside.

Always21 Nature Refresh Mask Sheet fit is alright. It has wider width.  The material is cottony, does not tear up easily and of medium thickness. There are extra essence inside the package which is enough to apply to your neck or just pour it to the sheet mask when it is slightly drier.  The essence is a transparent liquid which does absorb and dry easily after masking.  There are extra liquid so one can prolong the time of the sheet masking session.

The scent depends on which variant you are using. It does have some synthetic fragrance that can be strong to some and stays during the masking time. The scent does disappeared once the essence on the face dries up. Green Apple has artificial scent of apple, pomegranate smells like cough syrup, acai berry smells like those bubblegum grapes, grapefruit smells like citrus grapefruit scent and gold kiwi smells like cough syrup.

Always21 Nature Refresh Mask Sheet doesn't irritate my skin. It does temporarily brighten and moisturise which also mean you do need to do sheet mask daily to maintain the hydration and brightness.

Overall, Always21 Nature Refresh Mask Sheet – Acai Berry, Grapefruit , Gold Kiwi, Pomegranate, Green Apple is a nice affordable sheet mask for every day sheet mask or just weekly mask.
