  Pros

  As someone with severe seborrheic dermatitis, changing skincare products usually wreaks havoc on my skin, causing flare-ups and intense redness. I used to rely on Holika Holika's Good Cera Skin Emulsion, but when I wanted to switch things up and tried Primera, even their zero-harmful-ingredient products ended up in the drawer due to severe redness and itching. Then, by chance, I stumbled upon Youth Black at a Holika store, recommended by a staff member. While it's priced similarly to Primera (not exactly cheap), the hydration is phenomenal, and the scent is lovely! It doesn't seem to focus on brightening, which works well for me since whitening products don't suit my skin. Despite containing three potentially harmful ingredients, my skin - which usually reacts badly to even organic or 'clean' products - is now well-moisturized and glowing. The lower photo shows my cheeks after using Primera for a week, while the upper one is my current skin after two weeks of using Black. Regardless of ingredient lists, for those struggling with sensitive skin and stressed about finding the right skincare, I think the key is to try products and find what works for you.

  Cons

  So far, I haven't found any downsides. It moisturizes well, and while I'm not sure about the brightening effects, it does give my skin a nice glow. I have combination, sensitive, and dehydrated skin that usually absorbs moisturizers quickly and feels dry again, but this keeps me hydrated all day. There's a slight stickiness that could be seen as a drawback, but since I prefer lightweight textures, others might just perceive it as a pleasant moisturizing effect.
