Ordered on June 20. Arrived this Thursday, July 4. Arrived safely packaged without any issues.

I have an oily T-zone and normal/dry U-zone. acne-prone, flaky chin with redness on my cheeks and acne scars.

I had to purchase new products bc I fell into the an*a trap and yes, my skin absolutely hated it. My mother surprisingly loves it, so now she's using them. Stylevan had a code for a free Dokdo cleanser at the moment of me ordering so obvs I had to.

Little First Impression reviews on a few products, I can't say much because I just started using them:

• Seoul 1988 Serum ::
  Felt very nice on my skin. I don't know if I need it, but I'll use it twice a week in the evening and see what happens

• Cosrx Propolis Toner ::
  I love the smell !! Felt hydrating, definitely don't need much from it.

• Cosrx Snail Mucin ::
  I hate the opening??? I don't know if it's just with the mini size but I accidentally almost emptied half the bottle bc the opening was so big. Felt hydrating and left a glow !!

• Haruharu Airyfit Sunscreen ::
  Stinged at first but I assume it's bc I had shaved my face prior and got a micro cut – only stinged at that place so it's likely that. Felt otherwise nice on my skin, a bit sticky but not for long?

• Dokdo Cleanser
  First of all, I LOVE that it's gentle and doesn't strip my skin too much. I can finally double cleanse without getting a squeaky feeling !! But oh my god, this cleanser smells BAD. I hate the smell so much;; Is there a cleanser like this one but better smelling? ㅠ_ㅠ

• Laneige Sleeping Mask
  I heard mixed reviews about it, mostly that it's drying. Can't agree with that. It feels very hydrating, smells amazing, tastes good as well. Also actually stayed on my lips and didnt disappear within seconds like my old lip sleep mask.

• Mary&May Blackberry Cream
  don't need a lot of it either (honestly i have an unhealthy obsession with using a lot of product.. i'm learning), feels nice, smells nice. Hydrated my skin well ◡̈

• rom&nd Glasting Water Gloss Meteor Track & Dewyful Water Tint 11 Lilac Cream
  Heard many people say they dislike the scent of rom&nd lip products. I can agree for the Gloss, but the Water Tint didn't smell that bad imo? If at all. Idk. Lilac Cream is a pretty color on my lips, just enhancing the color a bit more ◡̈ Looks noticeable but decent, not too much. The Water Gloss looks good the first 30 Minutes. After that I feel like I need to reapply. And yes. It STINGS your lips and tastes like Menthol. Straight up felt like I just brushed my teeth with mint toothpaste and I hate mint toothpaste. Nonetheless, it wasn't too bad and managable.

Overall Conclusion: I believe I finally understand what people mean with "your skin should feel normal and hydrated after skincare". With my new routine and these products it definitely feels like exactly that. Well, we'll see how much will change in the next few days to weeks.
