[REVIEW]: TIAM GLOBAL (HYDRATING AND PORE MINIMIZING RANGE)

TIAM is definitely a new brand for me. This is my very first time hearing it from Stylekorean. Thanks to social media IG, I get to know so much informations and new brands through Stylekorean. They definitely deserved a shoutout in this post! I actually did some googling on this brand. Well, it seems like a new brand that developed not long ago in Korea. Fun fact about the background of this brand. The word TIAM is named from a Persian words, which means a twinkle in the eyes when you meet someone for the first time. Awwwww, this is so cute though. I didnt know there's such a cute meaning behind this brand. I'm totally surprised that I actually selected for this review event again. 

I always love to talk and share a little bit more about my skin types and conditions before I proceed with the product sharing. Those who read my reviews previously, you guys should know I'm actually belongs to oily and acne prone skin since young, even until now. LOL. Recently I had a very bad skin due to travelling and PMS, skin started to be very dehydrate and acne pop out non stop like volcano! I hate it that I had acne prone skin. It's kind of hard to control at the same time. Still trying to get the best skin care for my skin.

Although I belong to the oily skin type, but someday, my skin just turned out really dry and I can see its peeling. No matter how much of sheet mask I slammed on my face, it just didnt help at all. Stylekorean send in this set of products just on time for me! I developed breakouts on my forehead and along the jawline. I was so concerned about my skin with the redness due to breakouts.  I was trying to solve my skin problems – excess oil, lifeless skin, dehydrated, dull and dry skin.

I think this product just came in handy at the right moment for me. Been having an angry acnes on my skin recently and it really bugged me for weeks to get rid of it. This package came in 2 range, hydrating and pore control range, which is totally my type!

My reviews are based on my personal experiences, opinion and skin condition. I have tested for a good 2 weeks before I drop my review here in my blog. And I used this 2 products separately without mixing them together. Keep reading!

[TIam] *Renewal* Hyaluronic Water Plumping Serum 40ml

Before I discuss into the product, let me just talk a little bit about Hyraluronic Acid; the main ingredient. I've noticed that most sheet masks that I've ran through; especially hydrating and moisturising ones contain one ingredient in common which is Hyaluronic Acid. Known to its functions in making the skin nicely hydrated, looking plumped and glowing (as if there's a film of water on your skin), Hyaluronic Acid has the ability to hold 1,000 times its weight in moisture so now that you know what to expect from this product, let's get started!

Product Details:

• A hydrating serum that infused with the Hyaluronic Acid Complex to instantly boost the moisture level of dehydrated skin.
• Blended with lotus extract and panthenol to prevent moisture loss while leaving the skin feeling plumped.
• This versatile formula can be mixed with liquid foundation or BB cream for a hydrating glow. 

The product came with a box and with other sides having Korean product description, one of the side has English product information including the ingredients list. The serum came in that simple glass bottle with a product informations on it. Nothing fancy I would say. Just a combination of opaque white and blue colour. Well, I love its simplicity. From the photo itself, you can see that the serum is both watery and slightly runny. It is super lightweight and easy to apply. The finish is just nicely moisturised-looking and I don't feel tackiness or anything. I usually not very patient to wait  wait times between application but I've noticed that the finish actually doesn't dries down or anything after several minutes and it does feel slightly heavy on skin so I'd suggest for you to massage a little bit more before moving onto your next step for your skincare routine. Overall, I do like this serum. After using it almost everyday for the past few weeks, I can totally see how it helps with my dehydrated facial area which is T-Zone i.e forehead to chin and I'm going to continue on using the product to really see how it works after I actually finished a single bottle and boy, I think I'd be looking forward to purchase another bottle for this as it's fun to mix this serum product around with brightening skincare products that tend to dry out my skin after using them for years or maybe it's just a sign that I need to incorporate more heavier, thicker, moisturising, nourishing i.e. anti-aging skincare products in my daily skincare routines. I would highly recommended this serum if you looking for affordable yet effective serum for hydrating. This is good to go and 5 stars from me!

How to Use:

Apply 2 to 3 drops onto the face after prepping the skin with toner.

Gently massage the face in circular motions and let absorb.

Ingredients:

Water, Butylene Glycol, Glycerin, Nelumbium Speciosum Flower Extract, Betaine, 1-2,-hexandoil, Panthenol, HA-5 (Hyaluronic Acid, Hydrolyzed Hyaluronic Acid, Sodium Hyaluronate (Macromolecule & Micromolecule), Sodium Hyaluronate Crosspolymer) 1,500ppm, Polysorbate 60, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Allantoin, Hydrxyethyl Acrylate/Sodium Acryloydlimethyl Taurate Coplymer, Hydroxyethylcellulose, Xanthan gum, Citrus Aurantium Bergamia (Bergamot) Fruit Oil, Citrus Limon (Lemon) Peel Oil

Tiam] *Renewal* My Signature Vita B5 Toner 180ml

The only thing that caught my attention about this toner is alcohol free and low Ph!!! Oh goshhh, its seriosuly so damn hard to find a low Ph toner. At the same time this is a hydrating toner instantly quenches skin's thirst and restores skin balance, formulated with pro vitamin B5 and NMF. Not only that it also formulated with Peptide and Betaine, it enhances damaged skin barrier and restores your skin to its optimal level and allows skin to become balanced. Retains moisture in the skin entire day, leaving the skin supple and bouncy with moisture. I seriously need this toner as my savior due my skin is so so dry after i back from my home country though. **crying inside**

If i'm not mistaken, the should have revamped the packing of this toner. The Vita B5 Toner comes in a semi transparent, clear bottle containing 180 ml of product. Obviously you can see the content clearly. The bottle is quite simple as the serum, from the first look itself, it doesnt impressed me at all. The toner itself is clear and has a watery consistency. Well, in short it is quite runny and light. n my opinion. I'm quite picky when I choose toner. I dislike lotion and saturated type of toner. I prefer something feels more liquid and doesn’t carry any smell. Thank the heavens for Tiam then because an unscented hydrating toner is finally here!

This toner gets absorbed by the skin so damn fast and it doesn’t leave any tacky or greasy residue. I can easily continue my next skin care routine without feeling uncomfortable or sticky. By far, it’s the only toner I can layer up to 5 times and I don’t even have to wait for a certain time because my skin sucks everything up. I never experienced any kind of irritation or breakout during the time I was using it nor did the sebum production of my face got out of control. **touchwood** My skin is definitely feeling and looking so hydrated these day. And yeah, I'm loving it! Well, personally feel that this is quite affordable for the price with 180ml! Which probably lasts me for 3 to 4 months I guess. Depending on individual. I can definitely see myself repurchasing this over and over again. I truly recommended those who look for a lighweight toner, you can give this a try! I would rank this for 5 stars!

Suggested Use

1. Use in the morning and evening after cleansing. Take a moderate amount on a cotton pad or hand.

2. Apply evenly on the skin and gently pat the skin for better absorption.

3. If you need more moisture, layer the toner 2~3 times.

Tiam] Pore Minimizing 21 Serum 40ml & Tiam Pore Minimizing 21 Cream 50ml

For these 2 products I have to combine my reviews as I'm using them concurrently in the same routine for the pas 10 days. Well by right I need to use for 21 days in a row, but due to the time limitations. I will only able to use 10 days and share the review with you guys on my current experiences. I think you don’t have to use them in one routine BUT they do work best together. Honestly, when I realized that I was skeptical. Although, yes — 21 days may be long enough to see noticeable results but still..

The moment I received this pore minimizing range, I know its gonna be mine! Hahah and my skin gonna love it. I have an oily skin and of course I have enlarged pores too. Which make my skin so oily easily during the midday. Sometimes I really hate to use blotting paper though. Both the products contains Niacinamide which is a good for acne skin! This serum contains a high 20% concentration of Niacinamide. The 1% Zinc PCA also plays an important part in making this serum as effective as it is. Zinc PCA is a fab ingredient to look out for in skincare as it has astringent properties (it helps tighten pores and dry out oil). It’s also anti-microbial meaning it can help to prevent the growth of any microorganisms such as bacteria, fungi or viruses. This is great for those of us trying to prevent or combat acne. From the packaging itself, you can see that both the products are actually look alike. Black in colour and wordings in yellow. Well, lets talk about the serum first. It comes with a usual pump applicator and easy to use. A bottle of 40ml is actually good enough to lasts for about 2 months, at least for me. Depending on how much you apply. The texture is not runny, it was slightly thick though. But fast absorbing into the skin without feeling sticky or so. From the picture itself, it looks totally clear and transparent. In terms of scent, it doesnt really has any heavy smell. Still, acceptable for me. 

I tried this serum every day for almost 10 days, and the change in my skin is shocking. When I first started using it I noticed with a mini breakout around my hairline and chin. When using the serum I focused on massaging it in around the breakout and on my T-zone, where I get the oiliest. After only 2 days the breakout started to subside and redness reduced as well. Over the next week I noticed that I was no longer feeling oily in the afternoons/ mid days (even though it was ridiculously hot outside), and even after gym sessions my skin felt less oily and greasy. Overall this serum lives up to its claims. It’s soothing and hydrating, whilst combatting large pores and oiliness. This serum is great for all skin types and if you suffer from oily skin, enlarged pores or acne, you need to add this serum to your collection.

Next, lets talk about the cream. What I noticed first in this cream was the regulation of sebum production. Especially we are living in this super hot and humid country, my T zone always so shiny and oily during the days.  This cream has a somewhat has this mattifying effect, feels very lightweight and is easy to apply too. Leaves my skin feeling soft and smooth. The texture can be described as a light cream type althought from the look itself its looks like kind of heavy and thick. However, this cream does not have any noticeable scent. One lucky thing I would say is that it did not cause any pore clogging or breakouts on me, which I’m happy about. Still, I will continue using the cream nevertheless and might be back with a followup after I finish all of the product. The only downside I dislike about this cream is i need to use my finger to dig in the cream, which I feel is kind of unhygienic to me. I still prefer to be in a pump or tube bottle. I'm still impressed with this cream by TIAM. I think they really did a great job in creating this cream and serum.

[Tiam]  Blackhead Out Sheet (35ea)

This is also one of the incredible products that i ever received. Recently I've been experiencing quite a bit of pore congestion and hormonal acne so I wanted to re-introduce BHA (beta hydroxy/salicylic acid) back into my skincare routine. Therefore, I decided to give TIAM Blackhead out sheets for a try. Designed for oily, acne-prone skin, this toner pad promises to remove excess oil and dead skin build-up to achieve clearer, more refined skin. So how well does it work?

TIAM Blackhead out sheets packaged as a set of 30 sheets. The sturdy pre-soaked cotton pads are super convenient for both traveling and everyday use. Pre-soaked toner pads tend to be a tad dry which is why I rarely buy them. However, the TIAM blackhead sheet are generously saturated with essence.

Even with just a few uses, the blackhead sheet provides visible blackhead decongestion. My pores, especially the ones around my T-zone, appear smaller and less visible. The pads won't dramatically reduce visible breakouts but they do help prevent them. The best part, however, is the gentle formulation. There's no stinging sensation upon application and because the formulation is alcohol-free, the blackhead sheet doesn't dry out quickly so I have plenty of time to massage it all over my face.  if you are on the market for a gentle yet effective blackhead sheet that targets pore congestion, definitely give this a try!

Suggested Use

1. Tears off by follow the cutting line.

2. Put sheet on your own nose shape, remove the sheet after 10~15 minutes.

3. Gently rolling the melted blackheads and sebaceous filaments with cotton swabs.

4. Remove leftover melted blackheads and sebaceous filaments by an extractor gently. Once done, rinse off with lukewarm water.
