@natalie_oneillll: These posts are always controversial but I truly don’t intend them to be. I create these posts to educate so that you get better results in the long run. I absolutely believe these Medicube zero pore pads can give you results - I’m not arguing that. But they go against what I personally care about, which is giving skincare advice that helps you achieve *significant* results over time: bouncy, clear skin. In my experience, daily fragranced product products might work in the short term, but they work against you in the long-term health of your skin. My results have come from ruling our irritants, preserving barrier health, cleansing thoroughly without stripping the skin, and freeing up your skin barrier to be able to tolerate highly effective active like retinoids and azelaic acid (full posts about these on my profile). Fundamentally, I truly just think you can do better when it comes to exfoliating - there is just no need to be rubbing 8 fragrances into your skin while it is already vulnerable. Hopefully these alternatives are helpful to save you money, barrier health and developing perioral dermatitis in the long term. #medicube #skincare #koreanskincare #tonerpads
