Help me spend $$ on Amazon

[catspajamas]

Spam me your best Amazon skincare finds (AB or other)!! My boss gave me a $100 Amazon gift card and I'd like to spend on some new products I wouldn't necessarily normally spend/splurge on. I'm thinking vit C serum and maybe something snail?? My primary issues are uneven skin tone, spots & scars, anti-aging (mostly crow's feet) and combination skin - my forehead gets really oily, which makes my bangs greasy, which I hate so so much.

My current routine is: AM - CeraVe normal/oily foaming cleanser, CeraVe skin renewing cream serum, Neutrogena Hydroboost gel cream, and Benton fermentation eye cream. PM - remove makeup w/ CeraVe hydrating micellar water, then same as daytime routine except use Loreal 10% vitamin C concentrate instead of the CeraVe serum, and I add Garnier rose water mist before the Hydroboost. I've been doing this same routine (more or less) for about 6-8 weeks and really haven't noticed much difference.


I love the cleanser and have tons left, but am open to replacing any of the other products or adding something different. TIA!

Anything Cosrx basically. I love their stuff and it’s really well priced. In addition to the snail 96, I also like the snail 92 all in one cream, and the pha power cream. I know a lot of people really like the blackhead power liquid (BHA) and I might try that next.

I’ve also had good luck getting Klairs products on amazon. I love the toner and rich moisturize cream.

Also, sunscreen! I use the A’pieu brand.

Thank you so much! I had my eye on the snail 96, just added to my cart. When/how do you use the snail 92 and/or PHA power cream?

catspajamas, I went through the big Asian Beauty thread the other week in preparation of revamping my routine. The Cosrx snail 96 is the big winner. Here are all the other most mentioned brands, although I'm not sure if all of it is available on amazon.

Various Types of Cleansers: Banila Clean it Zero Purity, Corsx Good Morning Gel Cleanser, Cerave Gentle Foaming Cleanser

Toners: Klairs, Goodal, Earths Recipe, Pyunkang Yul

Moisturizers: Mizon Snail Cream, Beauty of Josen Dynasty Cream

Sunscreen: Biore, A'Pieu

Lakes, @karenwalker, thank you!!

Thanks ladies! I have been researching and looking through this and other threads for recs. Currently in my cart: the Banila Clean it Zero, Klairs toner, the Cosrx 96, a konjac sponge, Rohto C serum, the Skinfood lettuce & cucumber watery emulsion, Biore sunscreen and a Sulwhasoo sample set. I am not sure if I’ll get it all but I’m excited to try each, and my gift card just about covers it, so I may just pull the trigger. Now to avoid the temptation to try it all at once, so I can trial each individually. That’ll be hard!
