@dermapharmacist_: Part1 ! Bad, Good & Great Skincare 🙌🏻 Dark Underarms, Strawberry Skin, Neck Lines & Chapped Lips: 
#darkunderarms #strawberryskin#strawberryskinappedlips #retinal This guide breaks down bad, good and great skincare choices for four common concerns: dark underarms, strawberry skin, neck lines and chapped lips — with specific product notes. Quick comparisons help you pick the right step instead of wasting money (or irritating your skin) on the wrong one. Dark Underarms
 Bad: Shaving with a razor — friction and micro-cuts can worsen discoloration over time.
 Good: Niacinamide (Cosrx) applied consistently to even out tone.
 Great: Azelaic acid (Anua) — targets pigment and calms the follicle at the same time. Strawberry Skin
 Bad: Scrubbing with a brush — physical friction irritates pores and can make texture worse.
 Good: Body scrub used occasionally for surface exfoliation.
 Great: Glycolic acid (The Ordinary) — chemically dissolves buildup in the pore without the scrubbing. Neck Lines
 Bad: Gua sha — repeated dragging/friction on thin neck skin can actually contribute to lines and pigmentation.
 Good: Moisturizers with panthenol (Purito Bamboo Cream) to strengthen the skin barrier.
 Great: Retinal (Celimax) to boost turnover — pair with daily SPF, non-negotiable. Chapped Lips
 Bad: Picking/peeling dry skin off your lips — this tears live skin and delays healing.
 Good: A basic lip balm (Torriden, or really any occlusive balm) applied often.
 Great: A lip sleeping mask (Laneige) for overnight intensive repair. Takeaway: For all four, the same principle applies — swap friction and picking for gentle chemical exfoliation or targeted actives, and always patch-test new actives first. Which one do you want a full routine for — dark underarms or strawberry skin ? 💬 @anua_global @COSRX Official @TORRIDEN US @PURITO SEOUL
