I used to never really use toner or lotion, you know? My skin was naturally oily, so I hated anything that felt greasy and didn’t want to put on heavy products. But now… I guess I’m getting older. Right after washing my face, or even just sitting and working during the day, I can actually feel my skin getting dry and kind of stinging?!

So I panicked a bit, searched for something new for sensitive skin, bought it, and started using it.

I think it’s finally getting a bit better now. When I was younger, I didn’t need any skincare and my skin was totally fine so I don’t know why it’s suddenly become this dry.

Am I the only one who’s been kind of clueless about skincare? Anyone else who didn’t use anything even into their 30s?

Also, I’d love recommendations on what else I should add.

I’m the type who’s super lazy and hates anything that’s a hassle. And you know how those sheet masks drenched in essence or ampoule were all the rage for a while? Feels like they still are…

But honestly, I hate how they drip everywhere when I put them on and stick to my hair. So I’d usually just throw away the leftover essence or smear it on my body. But when I look online, everyone says those kinds are more effective and absorb better. Are they really that good? I’m kind of on the fence.

So I’ve been looking into it, and I heard gel masks are trending in Korea these days... is that true? Apparently they don’t drip even if you move around, which sounds super convenient. If I buy them, do you think I’ll end up using them more often?
