    if i'm doing an AM PM routine should i do both cleansers both times or only one time?

    Optional in the daytime but for the night, definitely do both. The oil will cleanse off all the sunscreen and gunk build up accumulated during the day.

    I genuinely don’t know where to start with skincare. Can someone point me in the right direction? I have Dry skin.

    I would recommend starting with finding a cleanser, moisturizer, and sunscreen that work for you. You can build out from there depending on issues in your skin you want to target and work on, but those are like the 3 essential products you should be using

    Read my previous post.

    Best product to smoothen skin texture would be any of these:

    • PC 2% BHA
    • TO 30% AHA 2% BHA
    • Shani Darden Retinol Reform
    • Holifrog Shasta AHA

    Chemical exfoliants & retinol are the most effective.

    Buying these once my money clears up

    If you want a high end honey mask check out the one from Korean brand I’m From.

    They probably make some of the best masks on the market with the healthiest of ingredients, it’s filled with tons of nutrients native to South Korea.

    How often do you change your pillowcase? I change every week but swap the sides every night. Should I buy separate one just to change twice a week or it’s not that important

    If you're short on money, I recommend First Aid Beauty. The holiday sets they're selling on their website are bargains.

    Depends on whether or not your sunscreen has moisturizing properties. If it's just a regular sunscreen just for blocking UVA/UVB rays, your face won't be moisturized enough. If it has ingredients that are moisturizing, you might be able to get away with not using a moisturizer.

    Most of the time, it's safer to apply a moisturizer and then the sunscreen on top. Even if sunscreens are nourishing, they might not be enough to keep your face as moisturized as it should be.

    Overall, these are the three essentials during the day:
    Cleanser
    Moisturizer
    Sunscreen

    I think he's asking if you can skip moisturizer completely if you're using a sunscreen. Most cases, definitely not unless the sunscreen actually has moisturizing properties. It's safer to apply moisturizer and then the sunscreen.

    Looks interesting. I'm mostly curious about the cream, but I'm really particular about moisturizers. Seems like most moisturizers leave my face looking too greasy.

    I wouldn't be surprised if it's nothing special and mostly just marketing, though. Pharrell himself seems to have great skin and is known for looking young, so that's already a selling point.

    I probably won't buy if the prices are hiked up just for the name.

    Oh my bad I read that too quick.

    @NIGHTMAN

    coze summed it up well although I’d like to say that I’d recommend avoiding moisturizers with spf because they tend to be extra greasy & thicker than sunscreen on its own.

    It also puts you in a situation where your main moisturizer that you apply at night now has spf - it’s unnecessarily & useless.

    You’ll be forced to buy two separate moisturizers. Also, majority of them only contain a max spf of 30. Get a good moisturizer and a proper sunscreen with spf 50 pa++++.

    Tbh 100 for the kit seems like a steal.

    Alright

    Good Molecules is another good brand if you're on a budget. I've used some of the products, including the toner, the cleanser, and two serums. I can say it's good stuff.
