Can we stop with the gimmicky and wasteful trend. Capsule creams should never be DIY-ed. Just use the 2 products together. Dont premake and store that “capsule creams” cos it will have so much bacteria growth - your skin will get ruined. #kbeautytrend #koreanskincare #capsulecream #skincareviral #deinfluencing
