Hello everyone, today I want to share with you my personal experience using a chemical exfoliant without a solid skin care routine :)

It started back then in January bila I tgok YouTube one of Malaysian celebrities talking about her skin care routine. Kulit dia mmg glowy sgat. She talked about Son & Park Beauty Water & immediately I’m interested to try :)

So I beli Son & Park Beauty Water. I thought it was just a normal toner but little do I know, the ingredient contain (don’t remember the percentage %) of willow bark. Willow bark contain Salicin which is considered as BHA.

No matter how mild, Son & Park Beauty Water is considered as chemical exfoliant. Dia exfoliating toner. Rating Son & Park Beauty Water ni tinggi - 4.7/5 that’s why I’m so interested to try.

I pakai everyday, pagi & malam for two weeks without understanding a thing :) Because I thought at that time it was just a normal toner :)

Sampai laa my dad tegur `kenapa pipi merah? Kamu pakai apa? ‘ it’s like I’m allergic to something. My cheek jadi merah sgat sgat.

My skin jdi really irritate/sgat burn & I don’t know what I did wrong. Bumpiness kat dahi naik byak sgat. I jadi mcm pelik kenapa tetiba jadi mcm irritate sgat kulit.

Bila jadi mcm ni mmg I stop immediately every products that I used. I made a mistake not knowing the toner that I used is a chemical exfoliant.

Bila my skin mcm burnt/irritate mcm tuh, I go back to basic. I pakai cleanser + moisturiser + sunscreen.

Every single day, pagi sebelum pergi kerja I tepek moisturiser + sunscreen. Malam pakai cleanser + moisturiser. Once in a while I pkai SEP mask. Mmg a very minimal routine. My goal at that time is just to hydrate & moisturise my skin.

1-2 months after giving hydration to my skin :

3-4 months after giving hydration to my skin :

5-6 months after giving hydration to my skin :

7 months of giving hydration to my skin :

Skrg bulan berapa? Bulan 8 kan? 8 months of giving hydration to my skin. (Gmbr ni I ambik tadi nk promote Toasted Brown 🌝)

Apa maksud hydration?

i) Moisture barrier (pinned tweet 29)
ii) Humectant (pinned tweet 47)
iii) Hydration dgn Moisturise ni sama ker? (pinned tweet 45)

When you have a well hydrated skin & a strong moisture barrier , even when you talked in front of the camera, the light can reflect your skin. (Ni video apa tah i buat kat Instastory)

I believe in the power of hydration based on my personal experience.

You want to have a glowy skin? Hydration.

You want to have less acne? Hydration.

You want your scars to fade away?
Hydration.

The question is, are you willing to be patient? 😇❤️
