    Overhyped

    OK, everything in this world is business especially on social media and that is what most influencers are doing, which I don't like. I normally don't follow influencers because most of them want to mass hype about same products and lure people to blindly buy them. And more and more sellers are falling to the same trap. Unfortunately, this product is a lie, it's advertised for people with dry skin but it's way too light despite of shaking it. At first it feels like it will be moisturising but a minute after the skin feels silky matte which I personally don't prefer because I have sensitive dry/dehydrated skin and most of the time, in winter especially, I have trouble finding products that really moisturise and protect my skin. I get irritated itchy spots from dryness etc. So this will go to trash. Luckily, I bought a travel sized product from the store. Will stick with Laneige's cerapeptide refiner. For the record, I have tried this on and off and with other products (with a thicker serum) but the results are the same. It's almost like it parches the skin rather than hydrates.

      Hey there💫 Thanks for sharing your thoughts on the product. It sounds like the I’m From Rice Toner just didn’t meet your needs, especially with dry and sensitive skin in winter. Since it can feel lightweight and may not provide enough hydration on its own, a richer night cream could really help. Consider trying something like the Exuviance Overnight Transformation Complex, which is great for strengthening the skin barrier and adding moisture. Also, layering hydrating products on damp skin and sealing with a thicker cream can make a big difference. If you’re looking for more tailored recommendations, the Beauty Scan in the Lyko app can provide a personalized routine based on your skin's needs. Hope you find something that works better for you! 😊 Have a nice day💓

    Pre shampoo

    Does this dry out scalp? You see, I’ve tried finding a product that tackles white dry flakes which I suffer from no matter what I do. They are there every time I wash my hair and then after couple of days from washing, my scalp gets oily and itchy. Coconut oil helps a little but doesn’t resolve the problem and it’s too much of a hassle to do an oil treatment before every wash. I feel my scalp is very dry. I’ve used sulfate-free products and vise versa. I’ve tried Living proof dry scalp treatment and several others during many years but the flakes just persist and I also have hair fall a lot in the shower and after on wash days. I feel almost all shampoos dry my hair and scalp. I have used the coco and eve like a virgin hydrating shampoo together with living proof clarifying charcoal wash but the coco and eve tangles and makes my hair full of static (also because of dry air in winter but still). Any suggestions? I have long dark chesnut brown natural hair (=not color-treated), tends to be wavy coarse medium thickness low-porous. I’m white female. All dandruff shampoos dry my scalp and hair more. I have a healthy lifestyle.

    Versatile product

    Laneige's cerapeptide refiner is such a versatile product and also simple, which I love: simplicity. I've already used 2-3 bottles. This particular product gives you moisture and GLOW. Also it makes skin texture look better and it calms skin. In winter it gives you hydration under a moisturizer and if you feel, you can add a serum if you want more moisture but I myself have sensitive skin which is prone to dehydration and other irritation and also suffer from hormonal breakouts. In summer it's enough on its own under a sunscreen if it's super humid and warm outside. You can give your skin a break especially on those hot summer days by using only this at night. Give this a go. Another similar product I'd be interested in to try is the Rhode milky toner but it's not available in Finland, which is a shame. I hope Lyko would bring it available some day in the future ;)

      Thanks for the reply. I wonder if this leaves skin dry after however. Most oil cleanser do tend to leave my face super tight even though they claim to be gentle and non-stripping. I've used the Calendula oil cleanser from Iunik but even that leaves my skin tight especially at this time of the year.. I only use one cleanser per cleansing session (1 in the morning, milk, and 1 in the evening oil OR milk). I hate the tight feeling and I always have to quickly reach out my toner after rinsing my face. Would you have any idea of a product that could suit me? I usually would want to use an oil cleanser or balm in the evening just because it cleanses day's sweat/pollutants/sunscreen etc better than a milk cleanser and it should be fragrance-free. Fyi, I've tested and used i. a. Clinique's cleansing balm, Hwarang bell flower cleansing balm and also Laponie's oil cleanser and they all leave my face tight.

    Jeju matcha clay mask

    Is this suitable for sensitive combo/dry skin that's also dehydrated at times? I suffer from mild hormonal breakouts every now and then but some blemishes take forever to clear and heal so I was wondering if a clay mask would help...

      I have the same issue as you, and I have this. It is gentle on my skin at least and it feels super good to wash it off in the shower 🚿 I can suggest talking to the doctor about some prescription gel you can use on the area where you get hormonal breakouts. It has helped me a bit. Good luck 🫶🏼

      Hello Kim! 👋🏼 For a sensitive and dry scalp, the best option is The Inkey List Salicylic Acid Exfoliating Scalp Treatment 🥰 It gently removes buildup and flakes without scrubbing, while also hydrating thanks to ingredients like panthenol and glycerin. 👉🏼 lyko.com/sv/the-inkey-list/the-inkey-list-salicylic-acid-exfoliating-scalp-treatment-15 Use it once a week, leave on for up to 10 minutes before shampooing. Avoid using it if your scalp is irritated or has open wounds, as it might sting 🤗 It’s a great way to keep your scalp clean, calm, and balanced without drying it out. Have a great day ☀️

    led mask

    Hi! I've heard that led masks treat various skin problems. Which of the CurrentBody led masks would you recommend for someone who suffers from mild hormonal inflammation (34 years old female) and redness? I've sensitive skin and have never used a led mask before nor had a professional treatment done. I've textural irregularities due to old acne (scars) and I don't suffer that much of pigmentation except if I get new pimples they leave a pigmented mark but eventually fade away. Biggest problem is the inflammation and mild redness. My skin tends to get tight after cleansing even though I only use one cleanser per time (1 x day and 1 x night), I think it's dehydrated chronically. Thanks beforehand! ^_^

      Hi! Based on what you describe, it sounds like the CurrentBody Skin LED Light Therapy Mask could be a great fit for you 😊 It works with both red and near infrared light, which helps to reduce inflammation and redness - while strengthening the skin barrier, boosting collagen production and giving the skin a smoother texture 💫 Perfect for you with sensitive skin and old acne scars! Since you haven't tried LED treatment before, it can be nice to know that the mask is clinically tested and gentle, even for reactive skin. An added bonus is that it also helps to deeply moisturize the skin, which is great if you experience tightness or dehydration. Tip: Start with 3-5 minutes a few times a week and gradually increase to give your skin time to adjust. Have the best! ✨

    OK for natural hair color?

    Is this suitable for hair that is not dyed? My natural hair color is brown / chestnut brown, I've medium thick hair that reaches down half of my back. The area I live in has hard water. I also think that I have quite a lot of hair fall in the shower (though I read it's normal to lose as many as 400 hair on washdays) and my scalp can get itchy after the following days and it's dry

      Hey Kim! 😊 Yes, this works for uncolored hair too, especially if you live in an area with hard water. It helps to remove metal residues that can make the hair dry and lifeless ✨ But since you have a dry and sensitive scalp, it might be good not to use it every wash. Try alternating with a milder, moisturizing shampoo and feel free to finish with a nourishing mask 🫧 Take care! 🤍

    Depot male tools

    I’ve dry scalp but my hair should also not get dry from the shampoo. Which of the depot male tools would be best for this purpose? I’ve medium thick hair and I usually lose a lot of hair in the shower. Almost all the shampoos from different brands I’ve used or tried so far have left my scalp dry. Then my scalp gets dirty quite quickly. I suspect that it’s because of the dryness of the scalp and not oiliness. I do not heat style my hair ever, I let it air dry. I don’t use anything else on my hair than conditioner in the shower and sometimes (very rarely) a leave-in conditioning serum.
