Recent Sasa Order - Trying Out Toners

Around this time every year, my skin likes to create havoc and break out with patches of eczema as a result of the cooler and drier air outside, and the dry heating indoors (even though it's been a warm November). The eczema is mostly around my chin and jawline, but the latest bout of it spread up to my cheeks, making them feel like parchment paper. Typically mixing some Vitacreme B12 with my day/night moisturizer clears it up within a week or so, but sometimes I have to resort to using a steroid cream and a layer of Aquaphor. The Aquaphor is only at night though, as the ointment is like petroleum jelly.

I decided to take advantage of a shipping deal on Sasa over the Thanksgiving holiday and invested in some Asian toners to add to my skincare routine to help prevent any future eczema breakouts. Of course, I couldn't order *only* toners....

CanCare Acne Discs - something new to try on pimples since MG needed more, 

and the NexCare ones he loves weren't in stock

Cettua Clear Patch - I actually use these to cover the NexCare patches 

so they don't get lost in the bed when I wear them at night

Contractubex - supposed to be good to minimize scars as they heal, 

even old keloids...something new for me to try

HadaLabo Gokujyun Super Hyaluronic Acid Lotion - 

toner #1 to try, based on all the great reviews I've seen online

My Beauty Diary Earl Grey Tea & Macaron sheet masks - I'm late in the game to try these, but now I can finally see what all the fuss is about (plus the tea lover in me had to get them!)

SANA Hadanomy Collagen Mist - toner #2 to try, also found good reviews of it online

Nivea Extra Whitening and Men's Silver Protect anti-perspirant - 

Lulu mentioned the whitening ones worked well to lighten underarm skin

I've been using the Hadalabo toner and so far I like it - there's no fragrance to it, and it feels like a watered down gel. It takes a while to get absorbed, so I save it for my evening routine. I'm keeping it in the bathroom so that as soon as I dry my face from removing makeup, I can apply the toner before my skin starts to feel dry - then I apply my eye gel, serum, and night cream. I'll be sure to post reviews of the new items once I've given them a decent trial run!

Suffice it to say, nothing new with makeup as my skin doesn't really like dealing with it right now - BB cream does the best job of providing coverage without emphasizing the dry, flaky patches or irritating my skin.
