Reddit mentions of Japan Health and Beauty - Humidity Cezanne skin conditioner coerciveAF27

>I currently use hyaluronic acid as an active and a hydrating toner might have that as an ingredient. It might be a bit redundant to use both.

Hyaluronic acid is not an active - just a nice humectant. Feel free to stack HA products, similar to how you can layer multiple moisturizers :)

If your biggest skin issue is dehydration and discolouration, you might benefit from a product featuring niacinamide. Niacinamide can help treat both of those things, and is a nice easy ingredient to introduce. Several of the recs down below feature niacinamide, and if you want a separate serum you can check out Skinlex 10% Niacinamide Serum

Stratia LG

And lots of asian beauty options:

Kikumasamune Sake Skin Lotion High Moist (it's a toner, amazon), emulsion (light liquid cream, amazon) or cream, amazon; Mebika moisture lotion (toner), Rosette ceramide gel, Dr. Jart+ ceramide products (there are balm, cream, toner), Cezanne High Moist Lotion (toner, amazon), Meishoku Ceracolla lotion, milk, or gel on amazon, Holika Holika Good Cera toner, emulsion and Cream

Tons of reviews on /r/AsianBeauty

I've tried LG, Kiku emulsion, Cezanne and Dr Jart ceramidin Liquid. They are all light but moisturizing, but get the job done. Never tried Cerave though, so can't compare. But they all should be lighter then Cerave oitment for sure.

Cleansers (Unless you're using a medicated cleanser most skincare products aren't really going to prevent acne.)

Mochitto Mochi Mochi Face Wash

Hada Labo Gokujun Oil Cleanser (200ml)

Rohto Hadalabo es cleansing foam type (160ML)

Hada Labo Gokujyun Premium Hyaluronic Acid Lotion (170ml)

Spot Treatment

Since your acne is deep in the skin I would look for a dermatologist that also serves foreigners because unless I'm mistaken a lot of products with Benzoyl Peroxide etc are prescription only.

Is this the right one? https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00RWMHTU8/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_7icPBbRMTR3NY

If you go to the Amazon JP link there is a box that says ship to: (country name) in Japanese. My Japanese is very rusty, so if you can translate the page, please do so.

I think you can just check out like a usual Amazon purchase after that

I found it on Amazon (US) here

This is available on Amazon US for those who don't want to create a new account. It's sold by TOY SHOP JAPAN HOBBYONE

The Ordinary is great. I also highly recommend an Asian style hydrating toner; put it on after any actives and before your moisturiser. Has really helped my dry dry skin retain moisture better.



They're often cheap as chips for a huge bottle off Amazon if you don't mind waiting a week or so; I have had great results from Cezanne skin conditioner: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00RWMHTU8/

Btw, since the pump dispenser is messy, I usually fill a couple of little travel size spray bottles. Much easier to use if you spritz your face a couple of times; it's also so cheap I use it after a shower as a body moisturiser.

You can find Cezanne skin conditioner here. If you haven't ordered from Amazon Japan before, it's very easy - here's a review. They take care of Japanese customs for you, and pack your items very well. That's where I found the Rosette Gel too.

And no problem! You can also search the Holy Grail Megathreads for recs.

Yup sure! Here you go: https://www.amazon.co.jp/gp/product/B00RWMHTU8/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

This has it for 20$ but still expensive. I'm saving the link to when I could afford it and it was 17 then.

I ordered it here on Amazon.

I find as the seasons change (it's getting warmer around where I am) my skin kinda freaks out and becomes very sensitive, especially the skin around my eyes.

Another commenter mentioned the Kikumasamune, but there's another one that's popular too called Cezanne. There are a lot of reviews on here about both. Hada Labo also makes a moisturizing toner. I think the key point it to layer moisture. So toner, essence, moisturizer.

Also, if you're not using a sunscreen you should get that as well (I can't remember off hand if the AM lotion you're using has SPF).

Also, one guide I like to link a lot is a beginner's guide by Snow White and the Asian Pear. She has a great graphic and examples of each type of product, just to give you a good overview and then you can go from there. I would say it's best to find a blogger that has similar skin concerns to you, because they're going to be your best bet on getting recommendations as they have been there, done that.

Edit: oops!! lol I didn't realize the comment had the same products listed, sorry!

There is this
