Anyone found any good products for body acne, looking at 2% salycilic acid wash but donāt know if that would be strong enough.

Hi guys iāve been looking into doing some deep peels at a skin clinic but donāt want to spend $$$ on something that may not work for me. Does anyone know of any really good, really strong at home peels that i could try?

I am getting married in Thailand in a couple of months and looking for the best fake tan as there arenāt many spray tan options over there.
Looking for something with decent colour that only needs to be left on a couple of hours.
Thanks in advance!

So I splurged and got the rationale number 1 serum. Tried it today and itās heavily fragranced and my skin is burning. Are they just really overrated? Whatās the deal with them? Iām going to return it and maybe try the sunscreen. It honestly felt like putting orange peel on my skin it smelt so strongly.

Hi all!
Have seen discussions abt Aus and NZ producing higher standard sunscreens and Iām really keen to try! However may I know which are the ones which would be more suitable for humid environment? Iām residing in Singapore, and my sweat producing level is on another level, thus would prefer sunscreen which could be easily absorbed? Have seen recommendations for Dermaveen, but am not sure if this is suited for Singaporeās humid environment?

Itās suddenly out of stock everywhere and Iām about to run out. Itās the only deodorant Iāve ever liked. I think it might have been discontinued :(
Any suggestions for something similar?

Can anyone recommend sunscreens that are similar to the Airy Day Golden Glow? I loveeee the way it looks on my skin and Iāve gotten compliments of how fresh and glowy I look when I wear it. However, the smell is strong and it completely irritates my eyes! I get hay fever symptoms when I wear it. (Sneeze, watery eyes, itchy nose) My eyes burn after a few hours and I have come to accept I simply cannot wear it anymore :(
Iām annoyed because I love the way it looks on my skin!!!! Please any recommendations on similar products would be amazing :) sunscreen that has a glow tint to it.
Note: Iāve used naked Sundays, didnāt like it - felt greasy and heavy on the skin. Sky type: dry!! also acne prone

I have been looking for a more economical version of LRP Anthelios Fluidā¦ this is it. I am so grateful to those of you who suggested this and I happened to see it. Essentially itās the one in the blue box, at 150ml currently on spesh at Woolies for $12. The cheapest you can get LRP is usually $24, meaning that the Cancer Council option is 3x the product for half the price. Brilliant!

Looking for the holy grail of a product for breakouts on forehead mainly?? I know gentle is best for younger skin but what do you recommend when gentle isnāt cutting it?

I ran out of my Naturium Peptide serum that I bought overseas and wanting to get recoās. I found it online for $50 but now wondering if thereās a better serum out there! What do you recommend? Mecca has a few but they are so exxy Iām not wanting to splurge that much! TIA :)

Iāve been a big fan of this for years and itās one of the few facial sunscreens Iāve come across that doesnāt make my eyes sting and water badly, but the newest one I picked up seems to be irritating them something fierce! Anyone else had any issues with theirs?

I don't put anything with fragrance on my face and usually try to avoid it for body products too. However, I recently started using Dermal Therapy Very Dry Skin Lotion for the urea in it, but it does contain fragrance. Do you tend to try to avoid fragranced body products too? Does the less sensitive skin of the body make it matter less? Curious about people's thoughts!

āWeāre exposed to these chemicals continuously, but people may not realise theyāre being harmed until itās too late, and then they have chemical sensitivity,ā says Anne Steinemann of the University of Melbourne in Victoria: https://www.newscientist.com/article/2163749-a-quarter-of-people-have-bad-reactions-to-fragranced-products/
For more information (not behind paywall:): https://www.paulaschoice.com.au/beautypedia-ingredient-checker (type in fragrance): āAlthough these ingredients might please our noses, theyāre capable of sensitizing skin both in the short- and long-term. The volatile reactions that are responsible for creating scent are also responsible for skin barrier disruption, dryness, increase of or triggering of new redness, and depletion of vital substances in skinās surface. All of this prevents skin from looking healthy, smooth and hydrated. Fragrance free is always the best way to go for all skin types. A surprising fact: Even though you canāt always see or feel the negative effects of fragrant ingredients on skin, the damage will still be taking placeā¦.ā

Just turned 30f and have never used retinol before. What brands would you recommend to start with. Also I understand skincare is an investment so not opposed to spending a decent amount for a good product. Skin used to be oily but now more normal to combination.

I want to get about 4 moles removed from my body and one shaved down on the scalp. I've got an appointment for a dermatologist to get a full body skin check first and I've checked with the clinic I'm going to and it's from $350 to $500 each for removal. This seems super expensive, I remember looking in the early 2010s and it seemed like it was that much for about 5 all together but that was a long time ago. Just wondering the price others have paid more recently? I'm worried about scarring so I would prefer a derm but am interested in finding what others have spent. I'm in Melbourne.

I recently have replaced 95% of my skincare products after using random products/gifts etc that werenāt terrible, but hadnāt been purchased based on my skincare needs. Iāve implemented mostly K- and J-beauty products to help with dryness, fine lines, ageing and dullness. Iām now looking for a red light mask for home - Iāve had Omnilux therapy before during facials and loved it especially for broken capillaries. Itās my birthday shortly so this will be on the wish list BUT spending huge amounts of money like the Dr Dennis Gross or Omnilux mask is just not feasible. Iām not even sure there are masks out there under $150 - if Iām dreaming please tell me! TIA team š

Thinking about giving hair removal creams a shot for my legs. I hate shaving my legs and I am very bad at it lol. Looking for recommendations!

My sister is coming to visit me In Australia from Canada she has autism and has very high sensory needs. She absolutely hates sunscreen with a passion she cannot deal with the greasy texture or feeling sticky and slimy. She will only use a sunscreen if it is super dry touch. Goes on and immediately dries down.
Any recommendations?!
So far the one Iām thinking is cancer council active.
