    According to Iope, a popular Korean skincare brand, our skin can get stressed from seasonal change, stress, lack of sleep, and/or even trying too many products. I can relate so hard to this right now! Stressed skin means breakouts, roughness in skin texture, loss of elasticity and so much more. Their recommendation is to go back to the basics, by gently exfoliating and cleansing, then hydrating and calming the skin. Iope was kind enough to send me their Pro Peeling Soft Gel and Derma Gentle Cica Creme to do just that!
