I'm almost hesitant to share how effective it is for blemishes and acne, as it might sound too good to be true. I used to rely heavily on acne ointments and patches. After using a product that claimed to boost skin regeneration, my skin actually worsened significantly. However, heeding advice that over-application can be harmful, I scaled back to just this toner and emulsion as my basic routine. Surprisingly, my skin calmed down within a week. • For oily skin: As typical with toners, it can feel a bit drying after application. This seems unique to this product, and as someone who dislikes stickiness, I'm extremely satisfied. • Application: It has a concentrated, flowing texture. Despite drying quickly, it feels moisturizing upon initial application. • For sensitive, blemish-prone skin: When my skin severely reacted to incompatible cosmetics, using this product for about a week noticeably calmed it down and prevented further acne or blemishes from appearing.
ConsIt quickly makes the skin feel tight after application. (I've heard others say it feels like the skin is being pulled.) It's hard to recommend for those with dry skin. Even with my combination dehydrated skin, using this product alone was too drying, so I had to layer on emulsion or other hydrating products twice. It contains powder, so you need to shake it before use. If it spills, it dries white, requiring frequent cleaning.
TipPlease, please trust me and try this routine! You can truly revive your troubled skin in just a week. - Suitable for combination dehydrated, sensitive, blemish-prone, and oily skin 1. After cleansing, first apply a very light, water-like toner. (I used Angel Aqua Toner, which is the most refreshing and gentle for me.) 2. When the first layer of toner is slightly dry, immediately apply a spot serum containing tea tree. (I used Daiso Tea Tree Spot Serum.) Apply any other acne treatments at this time as well. 3. Then, use the Barrier Derm Cica Toner. (Apply generously to troubled areas) 4. Once the second layer of toner has dried, apply at least two layers of emulsion! (If using a highly moisturizing product, one layer may suffice. Ensure your face doesn't feel dry.) Just doing this can restore your skin within a week. Please give it a try!
