Pearl Joy

Meet Pearl, a single mom from the Philippines who's been calling Singapore home for almost a decade. Pearl he's been living with acne for years, and when a friend recommended the CKIN acne care products it not only transformed her skin but also gave her confidence and self-esteem a boost.

"Since I started using the CKIN acne care products, I've noticed several changes," Pearl says. "My skin is clearer, more fair, and I have fewer breakouts. I actually don't have pimples now, and I feel much more confident."

Pearl remembers the many times she was experimenting with products, worrying if they would work or not, and how it impacted her emotional health. "I felt really low and sad. My acne made me shy and I didn’t want to go out without makeup. I used to hide behind a lot of foundation," she says. "Now, I feel OK going out just using sunscreen and maybe some lipstick. The changes my skin, and I as a person, have gone through during this period has definitely boosted my confidence."

The transformation in her skin is significant. "Comparing photos from before and now, there's such a big change. While this journey hasn’t been smooth sailing all the way, I now have almost no pimples, clearer skin, and with a glossy, glowy texture," Pearl notes. When asked, she gives the CKIN Skinfulness products a 9 out of 10.

During her journey with CKIN, Pearl has also started to notice how small changes in her lifestyle, including rest and recovery, can play an important part in acne care. And describes how it has helped her gain control of her acne journey: “During this time, in addition to using the products, I also started reading about how getting a good night’s sleep, along with using the right products, can help clear your skin. So, I've been focusing on getting enough rest.” One of the biggest changes for Pearl has been in her overall mood. "I'm definitely less stressed now, and I also worry much less what people think about me and about my skin. That puts me in a better mood, and emotionally, I'm happier," she says.

When asked to choose her favorite product from the CKIN Skinfulness range it is clear Pearl is a CKIN fan: “I can’t choose, I like them all so much”, she smiles. But when persuaded, she picks the Skinfulness moisturizer. "My skin feels so glossy after using it. It's more glowy than ever before.

When talking to Pearl, it is no doubt that her journey with CKIN is about more than just clear skin. "If I could give advice to someone struggling with acne, I'd say, don't be discouraged by what others think. Most importantly, love yourself. You can do this, and there are products that can help you clear your skin and boost your self-confidence," she advises.

Her endorsement of the CKIN Skinfulness products is clearly wholehearted. "I'd definitely recommend this product line to anyone with breakouts. It has really helped me.
