Struggles of Sensitive Skin, My Introduction

(Spa night at my place!)


Hello and welcome to my blog! I'm Suet-yee, just a simple girl who wants perfect skin (doesn't everyone?).

I have been "blessed" with sensitive skin, so it makes me super wary to try new products (I do so anyways). I try and look up products before I use them, but I found a lot of the products I use to either not have reviews, brief reviews, or reviews not geared towards sensitive skin. When I chatted with a friend about this, we came to the conclusion that I should start a blog and give the Internet yet another resource for skincare products!

I, like the next person, love cheap products that work, but I have found they are the riskiest for me, so I tend to splurge money on mid-end or high-end products for my actual skincare products. I'll spend a bit less on makeup since I don't use it that often and it's not on my skin for a long enough time to really do anything to it.

With sensitive skin though, it's hard to buy new products because you don't know 100% how it will react. I still find myself spending a lot of money on new products because my skin isn't at a level I like it to be, and I haven't found all my HG products yet. I hope the day is not far away, for my skin's sake!!

So, in this blog you will find products I have tried - and whether or not they reacted to my skin, and how they reacted. I can't promise perfect grammar and every product you want to try, but I can promise true, sincere reviews of all the products I have personally used.

As a disclaimer, I cannot guarantee these products will not react to your skin if they don't react to mine because everyone's skin is different, but the probability of it happening is probably lower. All products have been personally tried by me. Most products are full-sized products purchased by me or gifted by friends and family, some products are samples I received from purchasing other products. (I like samples because I can try a product without needing to spend money first to know how it will react to my skin).

At first, I will be reviewing most of the products I have on hand so some of the products may be older - hey, what works works, right? I am always buying new products to try though, so stay tuned!

I know the cons of having sensitive skin, so I hope this blog can serve as a useful resource in your own journey to find a skincare routine that works! Feel free to let me know if there's a product I should try!

Shiseido d Program Moist Care Lotion Review

Brief Overview:  A good, basic hydrating toner that will prime and prep your skin for other products/makeup without irritating it.  Extended Review: Moisture - skin’s best friend.  As time ticks away and celebrating birthdays are no longer as fun as they were when I was ten, I come to appreciate products that promise hydration. Even if you learn nothing else from this post, just remember this - a well-moisturized face will be your best weapon against aging.  Moist is a gross word. Many people I know hate the word, me included, but Shiseido’s d Program Moist Care lotion may be the one time I don’t mind hearing the word used.  The product comes in a pump style bottle at 3500 yen (approx. ~32 USD). When you’re done with the bottle, don’t throw away the pump! It will save you 500 yen when you buy the refill bottles as you can just reuse the pump. I love d Program packaging. Clean, simple, easy to use. One pump dispenses just enough ...

Shiseido d Program Conditioning Wash Review

Brief Overview: Mild, basic cleanser without fragrance or parabens that won't dry out the sensitive skin or irritate it Extended Review: The very first product I would like to review for this blog is the Conditioning Wash from Shiseido's d Program line.  I love Shiseido products and constantly find myself wanting to try all their products. When I was in America, I could only safely use Shiseido's skincare without needing to worry about how my face will react. So, I find myself buying their products when I need something I know I can trust.  The d Program Conditioning Wash is a foaming-type face wash specifically formulated for sensitive skin. In fact, the d Program is Shiseido's sensitive skin care line. Fun fact, the "d" stands for delicate. (I will be reviewing more products from the line, so stay tuned!) This is a very basic face wash. It's meant to clean your skin while also moisturizing at the same time. It leaves my skin ...
