Anua Heartleaf 77% Clear Pad 22 ingredients
If you have Acne struggles, this product is for you.. this product is too perfect! Works well with my combo skin!
I've heard nothing but good things so I'm very confused about my reaction. It broke me out so bad (especially my chin) and it wasn't just an allergic reaction or over-exfoliation, I got big juicy pimples everywhere and I have no idea why.
Benton Aloe BHA Skin Toner 24 ingredients
The best toner for acne-prone skin. It contains hydrating products and 0, 5% salicylic acid.
Just like the cosrx aha bha toner. This does nothing to my skin. The texture is watery but just slightly thicker than the cosrx toner. It feels really midly sticky but not as sticky as some by mi miracle toner.
