Sunscreen
The suns out so sunscreen is an absolute essential! Finding sunscreen that works well with my makeup and not oily to the touch is what I prioritize when looking for sunscreen!
The japanese formula is very light and blends easily into your skin!! However, the alcohol smell is kind of strong so I would not recommend if you have sensitive skin.
Kao - Biore UV Aqua Rich Watery Essence Sunscreen SPF 50+ PA++++
this sunscreen is the one i use for my body as it’s super easy to apply! my sister uses it on her scalp as well
Kose - Suncut UV Protect Spray SPF 50+ PA++++
I personally use the green one! I really like that it helps with redness and also blurs our pores as well. You have to rub it in for quite some time for the white cast to fade. My face doesn’t feel oily to the touch which is my favourite thing about ...
Shop Rohto Mentholatum - Skin Aqua Tone Up UV Essence Green SPF50+ PA++++ - 80g
Oil Cleanser
I think oil cleanser is a must for combination skin. It helps with removing dead skin and oil and sebum build up leaving your skin nice and smooth afterwards!
One of the more affordable oil cleansers! I find that the pink one is better than the yellow bottle one. My eyes do not sting and it removes my makeup off my face nicely
Shop Kose - Softymo Speedy Cleansing Oil Pump (2024 Version) - 240ml
The muji one I find is a little more expensive abroad, but it’s still one of my favourite ones!
Sensitive Skin Oil Cleanser | Skincare from Japan
I love that I don’t have to rub hard when using this! The product glides smoothly on my face and easily removes the gunk off my face
Clean It Zero Cleansing Balm Original | Makeup Removing Cleanser Balm
Cream
Using the right cream that properly moisturizes my skin is really what makes or break my makeup! The creams I recommend have prevented flakey looking makeup on me
I usually use this for my face and body- it costs the same price as a face cream but you get soo much more product. Since I have patchy and dry areas, I like to use the dry skin moisturizer since it’s more thick
Cetaphil, Moisturizing Cream, Fragrance Free, 16 oz (453 g)
A little more on the pricier side but this cream is one of my favourites! It’s super hydrating and makes your face super glowy and nice
COSRX - Full Fit Propolis Light Cream
Kind of like the toner but cream version. Love the thickness and hydration on this
Rohto Mentholatum - Hada Labo Gokujyun Premium Cream
Serums/Toners
I love using this before doing my makeup for extra hydration. I usually put it on my T zone and my under eyes as those are the places where makeup creases the most
Rohto Mentholatum - Hada Labo Gokujyun Premium Lotion
I got this as a gift but I genuinely loved it that I bought one after running out! I love how it makes my skin super hydrating and smooth to the touch
1025 Dokdo Toner
Cleanser
I use this occasionally and it makes my skin superr soft fresh. I also feel like it brightens up my face and makes it look less dull!
By Wishtrend - Green Tea & Enzyme Powder Wash JUMBO
I bought so many in Japan. This cleanser is super affordable in Canada and I like the thickness of the cleanser!
Shiseido - Senka Perfect Whip Beauty Face Foam
This is the current cleanser I’m using. I have the old packaging so I’m not sure if the formula has changed. However, the one I have is super nice and does not dry out my skin!
innisfree - Green Tea Amino Hydrating Cleansing Foam
Hair
this hair oil is so nice for moisturizing your hair! hair oil sometimes makes my hair feel oily but this one doesnt make my hair feel oily at all! i also love the smell of this one. this product specifically also includes a small pouch out of 2(?) de...
