Absolutely, I love the Illiyoon Ceramide Ato Cream. I have dry skin, so this cream is perfect for my daily moisturizer under makeup. I don’t consider it too thick, but if you prefer a light lotion, this will be heavier, but it smooths out very well.

I like using sprays when I feel like I may benefit from some moisture for the next skincare step. So I tend to use it after waiting around for my vitamin c to settle down since my skin wouldn’t be as moist at that point. I also topping a moisturizer with it for added gloooow. D’alba’s popularity mainly comes from the fact that Korean flight attendants looooove using it to refresh themselves and keep their skin hydrated throughout flights. Flight attendants are considered the epitome of current beauty standards so anything they use is a hit.

I love the Laneige mist. I liked the regular toner but sometimes found it just a touch too greasy (I have dry/normal skin), especially when combined with other products. But there’s something about their mister that is just awesome. I tried putting my refiner/toner in a mist bottle & it was just not the same. But their mister delivers just the perfect amount of hydration & moisture and it dries down perfectly. I will absolutely buy the mist again. I typically use it if I need something in between cleansing my face & doing my skincare (like right out of the shower, for example. I love the Sioris mist for this, as well). In the winter, I let all my skincare absorb and do a spritz of this just before moisturizer and it’s perfect 😍 I had the opposite reaction to the Illiyoon cream. I think my expectations were too high, lol. It was a nice moisturizer but frankly, I get bored unless something is amazing me & this didn’t amaze me enough. I was dying to get thru the bottle (tube?) and used a lot of it on my body to get thru it faster.

I use all light serums before the heavy to er or essence like the super watery Needle less or midnight serum or wishtrend oil drop then the kombucha or langeige then a thicker type serum it's all about playing around with what works I don't think rules really apply to skincare but I find away in putting them in. I love the Dermtlgy products well the frangerance free one. I have also been using the dear klairs eye butter as a eye serum with a little Benton fermentation eye cream over it great combo and sometimes I use the Benton on my whole face. I'm really loving both.

Is it worth it? Because im on the fence on ceramides. Was planning to get this. However, the ratio of ceramides is important for its effectiveness. Unlike retinol and vit c, that has tons of research being done. Its very hard to tell if ceramides actually works. Although its important, it kinda works like a moisturizer. Plus, the illiyoon cream does not disclose the ceramides %.. Im very hesitant on korean products (except for their sunscreen) because they like putting in natural ingredients in it and has small % of actually proven ingredients. Always feel kbeauty products emphasize too much on hydration which imo easily achieved with other products on more affordable price... Kbeauty products often to me comes off more novelty and gimmicky than effectiveness. Maybe because people are on the hype train kbeauty and kpop that they just give good reviews which leads me to believe i cant trust people's one sided opinion... Easy for korean to market and churn out products too..Im not after the hydration which can be formulated using cheaper ingredients. Just want to know if its effective and proven. Even this illiyoon cream that kept tugging my heart strings, i have a doubt on the back of mind that its just on the hydrating side rather than effectiveness... Just like most of the kbeauty products🤦♀🤷♀
@AliceintheRabbitHole2 жыл бұрын
So the catch with the current research on ceramides is that it is using specific ceramides, while many Korean brands are formulating with newer options. In addition, the research into ceramides look excellent, but with a problem: the published literature doesn’t always define the ceramides (🤯 I know - onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/1346-8138.16175) Compound this with the difficulty of trade secrets. I have no doubt these brands are doing their own research, but they may or may not be publishing it. It leaves the customers in kind of a tricky position: do we go with strictly the science (which is: TEWL prevention and tretinoin) or do we investigate the brands that seem to have exciting new promises, but aren’t always sharing their data? This is very true both of western and eastern brands btw! But I’ll give Korean skincare a leg up in that the prices are typically SO much better than western. Even if you’re just buying Illiyoon’s moisturizer for the occlusive base, a $2/oz equivalent in the west would not have the cosmetic elegance. I’d say try the products that interest you and see for yourself if the hype is worth it? You can often find mini sizes as well. Hope that helps!

To put aside both price and drama? …it might actually be the Drunk Elephant A-Passioni. Which isn’t a popular opinion at all, but my skin responded so darn well to that product - in the sense of never reacting AND seeing results. I think A Game works better, especially as the A Game 1 was difficult for me to acclimate to - but retinoids can be tricky. It’s not fun to experience the excess dryness/purging that can result! And putting price aside, neither - because the Peace Out microneedling patches are mind blowing for results (absolutely overnight). And yet they are no joke in price point. But if you can crack the code of what they do (it’s in the name), you can *cautiously* replicate those in a non-disposable system. And then, DRMTLGY would win.

@AliceintheRabbitHole tretinoin 0.05% every night and I do tretinoin 0.1% every third night. It just gets expensive to pay for derm appointments, pay for a sitter while at the derm appointments, pay for the prescription. Tret works fine for me, I just want something over the counter. Maybe I'll try adapalene? I know tret is gold, but I'm over the prescription method. Especially bc im only in my 30s, I feel my spf and sun protection does the heavy lifting in my routine.
@AliceintheRabbitHole2 жыл бұрын
Oh my yes glad you said that! I think adapalene might be a great choice for you? Your skin is likely adjusted enough to have no issues with it, and while the research into anti-aging with adapalene is in preliminary stages, it looks like it does offer those benefits thus far!

So I will at some point want to try the laniege toner. I have been using the Heimish Marine Care Cream Toner, I think looking for what your describing here, and I am about 85% sure it's behind the recent peeling problems. I couldn't fine the percentage, but Niacinamide is pretty high up in the ingredients list and this is what happens to my skin at higher percentages. :( I went back to the black rice toner for a while.

Yes don’t try it again!! I’m alllways doing that with products that I know don’t work for me (did it with the Augustinus Bader, again with the Elf…a fun price contrast that shows cost does not prevent reactions lol). Sometimes products don’t work for us sadly. Although I too am unsure on the smell - it should smell faintly pleasant (slightly cucumber I would say). I’m unquestionably leaning towards, “get your money back!”

@@AliceintheRabbitHole I’d want to try an exchange for a fresh one except I do suspect I’d prefer the illyoon for the price long term! I loved the Maran body cream from the last sale but full price I’m not really tempted to bother for such a small amount of product anyway!
