Cleanser
One of my absolute faves — Etude Cleanser (aka my second favorite after my holy grail 💖).
It’s suuuper gentle but still gets the job done, which is hard to find when you have oily, acne-prone skin like me. No dryness, no tight feeling — just clean, ...
My favorite products ever ! It's made with hyaluronic acid , deep sea water and ceramide. It is going to purify and remove excess sebum. It is a pretty gentle cleanser. It is great for all skin types.

It’s super lightweight, doesn’t feel greasy at all, and still gives that healthy, glowy look (not the shiny kind, don’t worry). If your skin didn’t vibe with other rice toners, this one might actually surprise you. It’s gentle, refreshing, and doesn’...

Rice Ceramide 7 Hydrating Barrier Serum
Okay so this one is spicy — the Cica Reedle Shot 100 is no joke! You can literally feel the tiny reedles (they're like micro-needles from nature, wild right?)
It kinda tingles, but in a good way — like it's really doing something. It helps with textu...
