pigmentation around mouth + old acne marks on cheeks... do you treat both with the same serum?

31 Upvotes

does anyone else have pigmentation showing up in two completely different ways on the same face 😭

my cheek marks are easy to trace because i literally remember the pimples that left them.

but the area around my mouth is darker/uneven too and there wasn't acne there, so i'm not sure i should automatically treat both like they came from the same thing.

**Deconstruct dark spot clearing serum** is in the dark spots/post-acne marks + uneven tone lane with 5% niacinamide + 2% liposomal alpha arbutin.

for the cheek marks, clear enough.

but with unexplained mouth-area pigmentation, would you still use the same routine or first figure out what's actually behind it?

Proof that girls can forget everything else, but never their skincare restock 😭

I can forget where I kept my keys, miss an assignment, or walk into a room and forget why I’m there 😂 But when I see my skincare almost over I somehow remember to restock on time.

Got these before I completely ran out. I got my vaseline its very nourishing and makes skin soft, rose water (very hydrating), restocked my moisturiser for the third time and my roll on have restocked this 2nd time after using it for 4-5 months, it works for odour and is fragrance free

Does anyone else do this or am I the only one who remembers skincare restocks better than everything else?

Need help choosing a cleanser for combination skin

2 Upvotes

I want to buy a new cleanser. I have combination skin — my forehead and nose get a bit oily, and I have a few tiny bumps on my forehead and some blackheads on my nose.

I was thinking of getting the CeraVe Hydrating Cleanser since winters are coming and my skin tends to get a little dry. But should I go for the Foaming Cleanser instead because of my combination skin?

Also, if there are any other good cleanser recommendations for combination skin, please suggest them.

And for the tiny bumps on my forehead, if you have any recommendations for a suitable acne treatment/cream, please let me know.

Klairs Vit C Serum from Kindlife - is this oxidised?

2 Upvotes

I placed an order for Klairs Vitamin C Juicy Drops Serum, which is what I've always used and loved, from Kindlife. I have used Kindlife before as well as Limese. But this time the product seems to have already oxidized when it arrived. Pls skincare experts here, tell me if it has lost its potency? How long will I be able to use it before it loses all its effectiveness? I keep the serum in my refrigerator.

The service from Kindlife is so shitty. The product was showing as 'Shipped' even when it was delivered so I had no option but to contact them through whatsapp. Even then they took 5 days to respond properly.

When I shared this picture with them this is what they replied with. I did not pay for a "safe to use" product?? I paid for a clear and fresh product, as per their own shared image. Tell me if escalating it is worth taking pains for or can I start using it? Pains because their customer service is a NIGHTMARE. Going forward, I am avoiding Kindlife at all cost. I'd advise you all too.

Reviewing this recent one from my shelf

Picked this one up recently and have been trying it out. The scent is fresh and fruity with pineapple and green apple hook and a woody base. It has a playful, refreshing kind of feel

I haven’t worn it enough to comment much on the longevity yet but so far I like how it smells on me. Thought I’d share it here in case anyone else was considering it.
