Mizon Black Clean Up Toner Review

`Mizon Black Clean Up  Water Finisher
Sebum Control, Silky Skin

Uses glycolic acid, ph balance. Apprx 15 USD.150 ml.

Love this stuff. I use it in 1 to 3 ratio with Thayer's Rose Petal Aloe Alcohol Free Toner to make it gentler on my skin. This mix is great as a skin softener and helps my skin absorb my essences and serums. I also use this on cotton rounds to even and soothe popped and pus-oozing pimples that would normally dry with a crust. 

I have repurchased this and may purchase the newer version in a square bottle that also has bha.

L'oreal Magic Skin Beautifier BB cream Review

I bought both shown but only tested the anti-redness. I swatched it on the back of my hand and then tested once sparingly on my face.

I hated it. It turned from green to orange. It was too liquidy for spot concealing. It may be more suited for general redness. I owned it for about 7 hours and returned it. It was not convenient enough for me to use.
