Hi, Mommy! Have you tried using face mask regularly? Kasi ako before, di talaga ako fan ng mga face mask na yan kasi parang wala namang effect until I tried yung mga korean face masks! Usually 15-20 minutes lang siya (so pwede mo ilagay sa face mo while tulog ang kids sa gabi, sort of me time mo na din while surfing the net). I use SNP Animal masks (they have dragon, otter, tiger and panda designs!) tas for anti-wrinkles, soothing, whitening and moisturizing siya pero when I started using it, naglessen yung pimples ko and even nagclearout yung mga blemishes.

I'm 4 months postpartum and true after ko manganak nagbreakout skin ko, i had acnes. Currently I'am using Quickfx products and it really works. I'am using pimple eraser and no shine mattifier.Also I'am using eyelift cream para mawala puffiness ng eyes ko sa pagpupuyat pagaalaga kay baby. You can but these products in Watsons for affordable price since meron silang mga sachet. Hope this helps 😊

It really depends on what type of acne you got - I assume hormonal s'ya. In such cases you need products with AHA and BHA like cleansers and facial wash with salicylic acid. Do remember that these are chemical exfoliants so use them sparingly. Good Korean skin care products with these ingredients are from CosRX. The have it at AltheaKorea online. It's important that you do exfoliation - both chemical and physical exfoliants.

Same here after ko manganak, naglabasan acne ko. Fortunately, I have colleagues na mga K-products users and they asked me to use AC Clinic Intense Liquid Spot from Etude House. Di talaga ako fan ng K-products kasi feeling ko magkaiba talaga ng kutis dahil sa mga foods na kinakain din nila pero napahanga talaga ako. Haha! Ngayon halos gusto ko mga Korean products na pati mga face masks, like Mediheal Foilab Mask. 😊

When we say korean skin care products, we can agree that these are affordable yet effective and true to their claims. You can check innisfree and jeju brands since eto yung alam kong common na binebenta. Unfortunately, these can be bought online and may sf na will add up to your bill. Im really hoping na mas maging accessible sa consumers ang mga korean skin care products. :)

I love COSRX One Step Pimple Clear Pad!!! Nageexfoliate siya without drying the skin. Actually hindi ko lang siya ginagamit sa face, yung brother ko din even uses it for chest and back niya kasi sometimes may mga pimples din sa back area. Super mild lang yung feeling niya sa skin saka hindi ko na din need magpurchase online kasi available naman siya dito kahit sa SM meron.

A must try "Aloe Vera Soothing Gel".. It totally worked on me.. Using Aloe Vera keeps my skin hydrated and baby soft. But of course I would say that depending on your skin type and how oily your skin is will actually depend on the kind of product we should use. Thanks!

Ay derma muna or, magpa facial na since may knowledge nmn sila.. then pag nawawala wala gamit kna products .locals products pwede na.or kung gusto mo korean i prefer Laneige products, very effective nkaka bata ng face and moisture nya super lakas maka healthy

I agree with hormonal imbalance. Currently using Rire toner, Laneige water sleeping mask and time freeze. If you really want to try using those, buy the small tubs muna. Are you breastfeeding? Check mo rin if safe for lactating moms ang mapipili mong products.

Fortunately ako kahit nung di pa buntis, hanggang sa nabuntis at nanganak, wala naman po pinagbago ng mukha ko. Nung di pa ako buntis, kojic ginagamit ko. Nung nagbuntis at nanganak na, wala na akong ginagamit na sabon sa mukha ko. Hilamos lang ng tubig.
