Review of the home care items I'm using these days for firmness care
I've heard that human skin has an aging cycle, and I feel like I've hit exactly that cycle lately. It's the time when I sigh and think, "I feel like I'm getting old..." every time I look in the mirror. So, there is a home care item I've been using lately called COSRX The Retinol 0.5 Oil, which is famous for its highly concentrated pure retinol.
Although there are creams and ampoules containing retinol, I am using this product because I think applying a highly concentrated ingredient directly would be more effective. You absolutely should not apply this product every day, haha. I recommend mixing it with your usual moisturizer and applying it about 2 to 3 days a week.
It is also good to mix it with body cream and apply it to your elbows or hands.
You know how product prices skyrocket when retinol is included? But with COSRX, you can get retinol care at a reasonable price, so I use it for my face, neck, and body all at once. As soon as you apply it, your skin feels incredibly soft and feels just like a baby's :) Of course, this skin texture doesn't last forever... and I'm not really sure about the improvement in elasticity yet...
Since it contains retinol, please use it only during your night care. Also, please note that it is oily, so those with oily skin may experience breakouts.
