Hello gorgeous souls! My skin type tends to be sensitive and acne-prone, but with the right mix of products, my skin barrier has become more resilient, and breakouts are no longer a daily concern.


I've also learned that too much heat exposure leads to small bumps, especially on my forehead, so I limit sun exposure.


Once my skin is back in balance, I avoid exfoliants like AHA and BHA to prevent dryness. Instead, I focus on layering hydration and using gentle, soothing ingredients.


After cleansing and applying a hydrating toner, I go in with the Snail Essence from COSRX. It has a thick gel texture that shouldn't dry too quickly. If it does, that's a sign your skin might need more toner beforehand to help it absorb better.


Next up is the Axis-Y Dark Spot Correcting Glow Serum, a longtime favorite of mine. The serum feels like a silky, watery gel and includes niacinamide, which helps maintain skin strength and firmness.


For moisturizer, I've transitioned to Ole Henriksen's Peptide Boost Moisturizer. It really depends on your skin needs—before this, I used their Vitamin C moisturizer, which brightened my complexion nicely. I switched a few months ago because I'm entering my late 20s, and it's time for that extra anti-aging care! It starts off as a thick cream but melts into a gel-like texture on the skin. Super hydrating yet lightweight.


Lastly, for sun protection, I stick with COSRX Aloe Soothing Sun Cream. It's the only sunscreen that consistently feels gentle and non-irritating on my skin. Lightweight, non-greasy, and never causes breakouts.


Give this routine a try if you're dealing with sensitive, acne-prone skin and want that radiant, healthy glow!
