Hereβs my shelfie as there is a dearth of those on the sub just like the perfect sunscreen in the market ;) Not even a human can change my life like this sub did. My skincare before was a facemask of lemon juice and multani mitti left overnight for 8 hrs for gLΓw n CLeΓr skin. π€‘ No sunscreen ever. (Did use lotus one but thatβs as useless as Influencersβ uNspΓnsΔreD πreviews) Iβm 23F with oily acne prone skin. Iβve icepick scars and kinda large pores. Another concern is uneven skintone. Reviews are in order of the steps I learnt from the sub.
Himalaya neem face wash: Been using it since I was a teenager and does the job. Sometimes dries out the skin a lil but itβs rare. Had face full of acne as a teenager. Tried ponds, clear n clear, episoft everything but when I started using this facewash, life changed lol. WRP 4/5
Kama ayurveda Rose water: Kangana would say βtum aur tumhare pitaji ke paas duniya bhar ka paisa haiβ but it just calms my skin!! Ofcoursee expensive but kabhi kabhi paani ke jagah nimbu sherbet me bhi maza ata hai. WRP definitely if Iβd money lol but next gonna try Amarnath rose water. 5/5
Minimalist Niacinamide 10% + zinc: Did quite help in improving texture and pore size. Also reduced oil to some extent. Didnβt face any breakouts even though niacinamide percentage is high. Ulta calmed my purging skin when my virgin skin met retinol for the first time haha. WRP 4/5
Cipla VC15 Vitamin C serum: I can hear βtum aur tumhare pitaji ke paas duniya bhar ka paisa haiβ again. But what glow!! Quite reduced my uneven skin tone and acne scars. It has 15% LAA. Been using it for two months. The 15 ml bottle lasts for 1.5 months. Colour isnβt fully transparent but not full yellow either. I ALWAYS store it in the fridge coz I canβt AFFORD it getting oxidised. Craazy expensive (for me) so want to try the Pulp Vitamin C serum which has 20% LAA. If anyone has used it, plssss LMK. WRP def after having paisa. 4.5/5
Minimalist Vitamin C serum: My first Vitamin C. Beginner friendly and didnβt break me out. Does give a glow but nothing OMG. No effect on uneven skintone and acne scars. WNRP 2.75/5
Paulas Choice 2% Salicylic acid BHA: Worth every penny. My HG before any important event. I use it once a week. Dusre din, pimple ka naamo nishan nahi. Due to exfoliation THE GLOW IT GIVES, muje dekhne ke liye sunglasses lagana pad sakta hai. WRP till death. 5/5
Minimalist Sepicalm 3% + oats moisturiser: Average but non problematic. Moisturises well but not well en
... keep reading on reddit β‘This post was prompted by a comment remarking on lack of Shelfies, but I'm too tired to take new Shelfie pics. So this is going to be a journal / review. But here are some of the stuff mentioned here.
Background:
Skin Type: Normal.
Skin concerns: Acne. PIH. Atropic scars. Pigmentary Demarcation lines. Micro wrinkles. (Sheesh. I thought I'd be done with the acne before having to work on the wrinkles)
Current Climate: It's rainy and cold.
Age: Late 20s / F
My skincare routine is OTT, always has been and probably always will be. This is what works for me and I'll be ignoring all advice on how minimal is best.
This isn't my entire Skincare stash, only what I brought with me on a what was supposed to be a week's stay but is going on 3 weeks.
I was prescribed Aziderm and 3 other actives, and they are effing up my skin, so currently my focus is on Soothing, Healing and keeping moisture barrier healthy and avoiding Dryness.
I've spoken about some products gifted, but kept it short so that this doesn't come across as promotion but I have no issues deleting that part of the post, if any of you find it biased. Please let me know, and edit to remove. I will also be sending this to mod discussion to get the opinion of the other mods.
My AM routine is Active + Sunscreen and there are a few I want to make detailed reviews on and a few that I've not completely formed an opinion on, so I'm skipping to PM. Also skipping all actives.
Johnson's Baby Oil: Ingredients
Usage period / method: Idk atleast last 4 / 5 years. Detailed post on how I use it / review can be found here. No changes.
Bliscent Lychee & Sea Buckthorn Face Wash**:** Ingredients
Disclaimer: I was sent this product for free aka gifted with no expectations to review on any platform (and I haven't properly reviewed it anywhere) I debated between posting a few lines and a detailed review, but I don't know how much of a hit my credibility will be taking, even mentioning this, so I'm going with a few lines. Edit: I'm removing everything, I said to avoid promotion.

I'm surprised it hasn't decade.
For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.
I said "hey look, an escaPEA"
No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!
Edit: I can't believe how much this has blown up. Thank you everyone I've had a blast reading through the replies π
It really does, I swear!

Pilot on me!!
Dad jokes are supposed to be jokes you can tell a kid and they will understand it and find it funny.
This sub is mostly just NSFW puns now.
If it needs a NSFW tag it's not a dad joke. There should just be a NSFW puns subreddit for that.
Edit* I'm not replying any longer and turning off notifications but to all those that say "no one cares", there sure are a lot of you arguing about it. Maybe I'm wrong but you people don't need to be rude about it. If you really don't care, don't comment.
When I got home, they were still there.
I won't be doing that today!

This morning, my 4 year old daughter.
Daughter: I'm hungry
Me: nerves building, smile widening
Me: Hi hungry, I'm dad.
She had no idea what was going on but I finally did it.
Thank you all for listening.
