30-day SOME BY ME Yuja Niacin Brightening Toner Challenge

This challenge is just for fun 😆.  After so many tries before, 30 days actually don’t mean much for a visible change, in my opinion.  But well, why not?

So, I’ve just got this that I bought from Shopee.  Where else?   


Reason for buying is because I’ve to look for an alternative to the Bodyshop Drops of Light essence lotion that has been discontinued.  I start applying today, 1st March 2022.  So my skincare routine changes slightly as below.
  1. Morning face wash with kojic acid soap
  2. Toning using SOME BY ME Yuja Niacin brightening toner
  3. Eucerin booster serum (all over the face)
  4. Eucerin ultrawhite spotless spot corrector (on the spots only)
  5. Mosturise with existing Bodyshop Drops of Light day cream
  6. Banana Boat 80+ SPF sunscreen (reapply twice during the day every about 4 hours)
  7. Evening face wash with kojic acid soap
  8. Toning using my existing Bodyshop Drops of Light essence lotion
  9. The Ordinary apha arbutin 2% + HA serum (on the spots only)
  10. The Raw arbutin 2% + niacinamide + glutathione serum (all over the face)
I start by applying in the morning only since this new toner contains niacinamide and I’m already applying The Raw niacinamide at night.  I will apply both morning and night when I run out of the Drops of Light essence lotion, which is expected to be soon.  On top of these, I also exfoliate my skin twice or thrice a week using existing Bodyshop Drops of Youth liquid peel that has already expired actually.  Let’s see if it gives me anything by 31st March.

Having gone this far with no really noticeable, consistent improvement, I have to admit that I’m dealing with super stubborn dark spots.  They like my face so much and just refuse to leave.
