For anyone wanting to try a retinol product this is the place to start. This serum is quite gentle, though I started with 3x a week and I did get a slight reaction, but nothing serious, only a little redness where it touched my lips. I have since moved on to a different serum due to shipping issues, but this one remains my favourite for consistency and non-stickiness. Smells a bit pooey, but it absorbs super quick and is absolutely not tacky. And so cheap! a great way to see if retinol is right for you. I totally recommend this brands Vitamin C serum too. -
I love this stuff, have been using it for years! Smells so good and your skin feels squeaky clean. I started using it because I couldn't buy Aapri, the British version, but have now decided I prefer it.

This Japanese peeling gel is for those who find exfoliating too abrasive, i.e . on aging skin. You rub it on and it clumps into little balls, taking a layer of skin with it, a bit like rubbing liquid glue on your skin! Very gentle, and does leave your face feeling smooth and very clean. HOWEVER, I probably won't buy it again because I found that the little clumps of product and dead skin stuck to my cheek down and were super hard to remove! -
This bubbling @mask@ is actually a gel you put on your face and wait for it to foam up before washing off. It does leave your skin feeling lovely, however the fumes from it tend to really sting your eyes so I would recommend using it in-shower.

This Japanese face wash is a standard drugstore buy, cheap and super effective. Meant to be used as a second step face wash, after oil cleansing, but can be used on its own. It foams up from a 2cm blob to a whole handful of soft silky marshmallow, if you use a foaming net. I use the wash with added collagen for aging skin, and it is so soft and lovely. My skin feels clean but not squeaky, i.e. stripped of oil. Highly recommend! -
