Recently, I have been using Hada Labo Arbutin Whitening + Hydrating Lotion in conjunction with my Laneige Water Sleeping Pack Ex. Initially, I presumed that this combination was alright because I had dry-combi skin so hydration issues should not be a problem for me. However, I realised that these two used together could possibly lead to overhydration of my facial skin. This can lead to development of pimples, in worst case scenario, due to clogging of pores with water. I witnessed teeny-weeny (not visible by sight but by touch) bumps on my face. Although the bumps are so tiny that they cannot be noticed at all, I became paranoid because I know they exist and I have almost always had clear skin so this was an alien experience. I have since cut down my skincare routines to allow my skin to properly "breathe". I think I may have a better idea of my current skin situation, I am hopefully indeed on the path to getting normal skin type. Fingers crossed!
P.S. My June & July '11 skincare routines slightly differ! Check them out in the respective entries :)
