Therefore your sunscreen posts are always the most interesting ones for me :) Until now I also haven't found a cushion that doesn't contain it. Of course, a cushion has a bit less contact with the skin than sunscreen, but still I didn't want to risk it. I really wished there were more products with Tinosorb as a filter. It's broadband, it's stable, it doesn't give me spots, so whyyyyyyyy don't you use it more, cosmetics people?lalicornehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09051689857415420480noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2541982013000251431.post-77883104965288898802017-06-09T04:49:51.962-07:002017-06-09T04:49:51.962-07:00Hi Cat

I love it!<br /><br />I need some advice, please:<br /><br />On my AM routine, I'm using LAA and BHA. At night, I'm using AHA. <br />I read on your blog something about wipe down the vitamin C and the BHA or AHA after the wait time (20 minutes). So here is what I'm doing:<br /><br />AM:<br />1. Gentle cleanse (cosRX low ph)<br />2. coRX AHA/BHA or Mizon AHA 8% (right now, I'm waiting 20 minutes, but I'll buy one of them!)<br />3. Vitamin C - wait 20 minutes and wipe it down using thermal water (or the toners) and a cotton pad<br />4. BHA Blackhead cosrx - wait 20 minutes and wipe it down using thermal water (or the toners) and a cotton pad<br />5. other steps<br /><br />At evening, I don't use the Vitamin C. Instead, I use the AHA and wait the 20 minutes - no need to wipe down.<br /><br />The thing is: I love the feeling of wipe the residues down and have a clean face to use the next products, BUT I'm really insecure if the BHA would be better (and acting) during the day if I let it on my face.<br /><br />Also, both "The Ordinary Glucoside Solution 12%" and "The Ordinary Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate 10%" need the 20 minutes wait, right? Not sure if they are considered LAA as well.<br /><br />Thanks a LOT! <3<br />FernandaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2541982013000251431.post-87647245238494749972017-06-08T10:46:56.723-07:002017-06-08T10:46:56.723-07:00Hmm, I think that's really going to depend on ...Hmm, I think that's really going to depend on your skin.

I got him the good morning ph cosrx cleanse for his first step. The mizon bha aha toner as step 2. And for moisturizer the gel moisturizer by mizon. However now wondering if I should add cosrx bha to the routine. If yes, would he use it AM and PM? Would he use it after the mizon toner? How long does he need to wait between each of these?<br />Thank you Timtimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11881474403584684202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2541982013000251431.post-23071587164784258172017-06-07T16:45:56.041-07:002017-06-07T16:45:56.041-07:00I hope I'm not posting this comment three time...I hope I'm not posting this comment three times!

It's not AB, but have you tried the BareMinerals Mineral Shield Daily Prep Lotion? It has zinc oxide and titanium dioxide, is SPF 50, has a watery consistency, and isn't greasy once it sinks in. I can't comment on white cast since I might be even paler than you.Headless Horsmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04973778800453319543noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2541982013000251431.post-77813163947182909772017-06-07T11:00:45.751-07:002017-06-07T11:00:45.751-07:00Butyl Methoxydibenzoylmethane Is Avobenzone for (U...Butyl Methoxydibenzoylmethane Is Avobenzone for (UVA)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00867790936000311969noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2541982013000251431.post-23536060565652669002017-06-07T00:58:11.669-07:002017-06-07T00:58:11.669-07:00Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate is Octinoxate.
