Hey guys, welcome back to my channel. In this video I share my retinol skincare routine for super smooth, glowy “glass skin”, and I review my two favorite Korean retinol products from Some By Mi: a low-dosage retinol serum and a retinol eye cream. This video is not sponsored—I’m sharing them because I’ve been getting such good results (my skin feels insanely smooth and looks really radiant), and they’re also relatively affordable for retinol. I explain exactly how the textures feel (smooth, lightweight, not sticky), how they absorb, and even the “soapy” ingredient-type scent that both products have. Most importantly, I talk about how to avoid mistakes with retinol—especially if you’re a beginner or you have dry/sensitive skin like me. My two main tips are: don’t use retinol every day at the start (I began once or twice a week), and support your skin barrier on the off-days with repairing products. I also show you my go-to “sandwich method” (hydrating base + retinol + moisturizer) to prevent dryness and peeling, plus what I changed when the eye cream dried out my smile lines too much.
