I don't use eye creams and maybe I should do soon. I just looked at the mirror and I do have dark circles haha but not too noticeable.
It's nice that local companies are doing skin care and even makeup so we don't have to rely on western products for it and hope that they work for us Asians. Here in the PH as well, local makeup brands are popping everywhere and they are getting inspiration from western brands but they make it so they suit our complexion and skin types. Literally what we should have been doing!! I found the makeup mostly from the west are very saturated for our skintones and some skincare won't work due to our humidity, climate, etc.. :D
This! I tried brands like kiehls, Cetaphil and Olay but they don't seem to improve my problem not to mention,they're not too affordable either 😂 also, don't get me started with the make up line because they have problem like you said + sometimes their color tone is pretty limited. So, these days I find comfort in local brands or sometimes korean skin care, cause they really make your skin glow.
Exactly!! The cost was just too much for them especially with shipping and import fees. T_T Years ago I ordered a The Ordinary foundation and when I tried it here OMG little sweat and IT MELTS!!! Hahaha. Of course it will be a good product in places like Canada but not here. I also recently bought some Korean and Chinese makeup and they really suit Asian features. Their eyeshadow and contour shades are just better suited for Asians than the western products since they are not that saturated. Their lip tints are so good too. Just not the foundation though cos they seem to be too light lol.
Hello, yes we believe that some products are good according to the type of skin, but also according to the type of climate of the place where they are used.
