  Madagascar Centella Teca Ampoule

  I love the Centella Ampoule, so I tried this one with high hopes... but unfortunately, I couldn't tell any difference other than how it felt to use. Compared to the Centella Ampoule's light, watery texture, this one is just slightly more viscous. It does feel a little sticky, so if that's the case, I'd rather choose the Centella Ampoule, which leaves absolutely no residue on my skin... that's pretty much where I landed. (Since I wouldn't finish my skincare routine with this alone) It's not unpleasant to use, so I'll use up the ones I have stocked alongside the Centella Ampoule.

  Exosome Cica Ampoule

  It has a cooling feel and a thick texture. I liked how it was moisturizing without being too heavy & the soothing effect, so I repurchased it about four times. It wasn't sticky, so it was comfortable to use even in the summer. I liked how it felt kind of aloe-like? (even though it's cica) But by my fourth bottle, I also started thinking maybe I didn't really need to use it anymore... Since it mainly felt like lightweight hydration, it seems like something I could replace with other products. And since they were doing a farewell collab with Gayoung-chan, it looks like the current cica line is ending... Maybe they're going to revamp it? I liked the current cica line quite a bit, and besides the ampoule, I also used the toner pads, toner, and cream. I decided to take this opportunity to look for something new, so I haven't bought it since the farewell collab. If they revamp it, I think I might try buying it again.

  Azelaic Acid 15+ Intense Calming Serum

  This is a high-concentration serum with 15% azelaic acid + cica. Personally, this Anua serum wasn't that great for me. It feels a little sticky, and I like a smooth, non-sticky finish, so that was disappointing. You could call it moisturizing, but I apply a moisturizer afterward, so I'm not looking for hydration from azelaic acid.. What I expect from azelaic acid products is “dark spot prevention,” “acne prevention,” and “prevention of skin irritation (soothing).” Since it's highly concentrated, I expected it to be effective for those things, but the stickiness also felt a little itchy, so it didn't really suit me. It also contains cica ingredients, but I didn't notice anything in particular from them.. Honestly, I thought it would be fine without them. By the way, it didn't crystallize while I was using it. Medicube crystallizes pretty heavily, so it gets powdery. I actually like that powdery feel, so Medicube wins for me (maybe that's an unusual preference..).

  Madagascar Centella Teca Ampoule

  This serum is a little more moisturizing than the Centella Ampoule. This one is also completely non-irritating and really easy to use. It has a light, toner-like consistency that absorbs well into the skin, and it's a serum you can use every morning and night. I feel like it makes my skin healthier.

  Madagascar Centella Ampoule

  When you think of SKIN1004, this is the one! The classic Madagascar Centella Ampoule🌿 A simple, easy-to-use ampoule formulated with centella asiatica extract from Madagascar. It’s easy to incorporate even for those with sensitive skin, and I also use it when I’m concerned about my skin’s condition◎ The texture is lighter than the TECA Ampoule, with a smooth, watery consistency. I love how fresh and easy it is to spread, and how it doesn’t feel too sticky♡ Another great thing is that it’s easy to pair with other serums as a first-step serum. My favorite way to use both is the Madagascar Centella Ampoule first, followed by the Centella TECA Ampoule☺️ For anyone who likes a fresh, lightweight feel or wants to incorporate simple centella care into their routine🌿 #SKIN1004 #CentellaAmpoule #MadagascarCentella #KoreanCosmetics #KoreanSkincare #Ampoule #Serum #Skincare #SensitiveSkin #MoisturizingCare #Centella #CentellaAsiaticaExtract

  Madagascar Centella Ampoule

  I seriously love this ampoule 😍 I've already gone through about five bottles?! There are other lines too, but this Madagascar Centella Ampoule is for people with "sensitive skin." I use it when my skin is acting up or when I get acne. It's gentle—or rather, there's practically no irritation—and it makes my skin smooth. The texture is watery and not sticky, so I think it's easy to use before bed or in the morning.

  Madagascar Centella Tea-Trica Relief Ampoule

  This serum has a light, watery toner-like texture 🌿 Even though it's a serum, I often use it in place of toner too ◎ The natural herbal scent is pleasant, and it blends into my skin really well, so I used it on days when I wanted to play it safe, to help with summer heat and stickiness 🎶 (On days when I want something more active, I tend to reach for SKIN1004's azelaic acid more often ◎) I really love the peace of mind that I can use it no matter how my skin is doing, and it's the product I reach for when I can't decide 🌿 - ⚠︎ - The image is a comparison photo of the SKIN1004 ampoules I own that I previously posted on X

  Madagascar Centella Hyalu-Cica Blue Serum

  I actually bought this by mistake thinking it was the Hyalu-Cica First Ampoule, but now it might be my favorite SKIN1004 product🌟 It's a slightly gel-like serum with a bouncy texture, and it sinks right into my skin◎ Maybe it's super hydrating, because every time I wash my face the next morning, I'm amazed by how smooth my skin feels🎶🎶 My skin does get dry, but moisturizing with oils makes me break out, so I'm really grateful for a hydrating skincare product like this that makes my skin texture feel this refined🪄︎︎🫧‪

  Heartleaf Teca Capsule Serum Calming Drop

  This product was good for breakouts, and even combination skin could use it without feeling oily!! It has a clean finish in every season, so I recommend using it as an everyday serum!

  It dries my skin out a little when I use it, but it helps reduce acne and comedones, so I find it really useful!

  Madagascar Centella Ampoule

  I’ve kept using it at a pace of about one bottle every 1.5 months. It’s basically my go-to product that calms my skin down no matter what. It’s moisturizing enough, but what I notice most is its soothing effect. When my skin feels tingly or rough during seasonal changes, or when I don’t want to layer too many products, this one bottle helps me out. I like the Centella TECA Ampoule too, but I like this one better.

  No.1 Pantothenic B5 Active Soothing Serum

  This is a serum I started using because my skin became oily-dehydrated and I was worried about my oil production going crazy. Its main ingredient is panthenol, which helps protect the skin barrier and balance oil and moisture levels!! I use it whenever my pores get clogged from excess oil and tiny bumps start popping up, and when I look at my skin the next day, it’s definitely smooth and I can visibly see that the breakouts have calmed down, so I use it all the time.

  I used this a lot during the season when I was concerned about excess oil in the summer. I liked how nice and smooth it felt to apply, and how it seemed to calm my skin. I’m trying another azelaic acid serum, so I won’t repurchase it right away, but I might buy it again someday.

  Calming Shot Azulene Ampoule

  I have acne-prone skin, so my skin gets red really easily when I extract them myself at home ㅠㅠ I heard azulene is good for redness, so I tried it, and it was nice to use because it wasn't too heavy or sticky and had a moisturizing texture. When I apply it, sleep, and wake up, the redness is definitely reduced, so I'm almost done with the whole bottle. Rather than getting rid of redness that was already there, I saw an effect on redness that had appeared recently.
