4 reasons why I think Korean cosmetics and skincare triumphs over Western’s

May 27, 2015

𝙃𝙤𝙬 𝙄’𝙢 𝙧𝙚𝙗𝙪𝙞𝙡𝙙𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙢𝙮 𝙨𝙠𝙞𝙣 𝙗𝙖𝙧𝙧𝙞𝙚𝙧 🚧
After testing out micro-needling in a bottle and messing up my skin barrier, I’m in dire need fo gentle and sensitive skin friendly products. I have used @celimax.global and their noni line is one of my favourite products I always go back to.

Here are some quick thoughts on the three products in the video.

✨𝘾𝙚𝙡𝙞𝙢𝙖𝙭 𝙛𝙧𝙚𝙨𝙝 𝙗𝙡𝙖𝙘𝙠𝙝𝙚𝙖𝙙 𝙟𝙤𝙟𝙤𝙗𝙖 𝙘𝙡𝙚𝙖𝙣𝙨𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙤𝙞𝙡
A very gentle cleansing oil that does break down make up and sunscreen, but I haven’t seen my blackheads popping out like how they show in their promotional pictures. This would be a great cleansing oil for those with normal to oily skin types.

✨𝘾𝙚𝙡𝙞𝙢𝙖𝙭 𝙅𝙞 𝙒𝙤𝙤 𝙎𝙖𝙚 𝙝𝙚𝙖𝙧𝙩𝙡𝙚𝙖𝙛 𝘽𝙃𝘼 𝙥𝙚𝙚𝙡𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙥𝙖𝙙
I’m not sure if my skin is just that sensitive, but I think their heartleaf BHA peeling pads could use softer cotton. Other then that, I did really enjoy the formulation with heartleaf which soothed and calmed my skin very well. BHA is an added bonus to help exfoliate the skin while it didn’t irritate my already sensitive skin.

✨𝘾𝙚𝙡𝙞𝙢𝙖𝙭 𝙙𝙪𝙖𝙡 𝙗𝙖𝙧𝙧𝙞𝙚𝙧 𝙨𝙠𝙞𝙣 𝙬𝙚𝙖𝙧𝙖𝙗𝙡𝙚 𝙘𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙢
It doesn’t surprise me that there’s 5 ceramides formulated into this cream. The texture and finish reminds me of my holy grail Cosrx comfort ceramide cream, which both melts into my skin and keeps my dry skin at bay even overnight. The only thing I’d change with the packaging is the nozzle. It is too skinny to be able to squeeze thick creams out!

Make sure to check @cosmetic_jolse sale on Celimax products starting April 26th!

Have you ever had those days where you were either crying all last night, or you ate too much sodium the night before and puffed up like a pufferfish? Well, the pisces in me do be crying all day everyday, and here is how I fake that i wasn’t doing any of those things the night before the next day.

𝘿𝙚-𝙥𝙪𝙛𝙛𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙞𝙣𝙜𝙧𝙚𝙙𝙞𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙨:
✨@foreo_official Iris 2
✨Eye cream of your choice
🎧 Maybe stop listening to Ariana grande’s “We can’t be friends”. That song got me fuckkkked up. Bringing back too many bad memories.

With enough eye cream to lube your eyes, gently allow the tapping motion of the Foreo Iris to use its tapping magic and pulsation to slowly (and without dragging) drain the fluids in your eyes towards your lymph nodes.

I’m not sure if you’re suppose to use the Foreo Iris 2 on your eye lids, but desperate times call for desperate measures. Although my eye bags aren’t as drastic, I’ve tried this same device on parents over 55+ with huge eye bags and it immediately rejuvenates, de-puffs and looks so much younger after the 1 minute massage.

This sounds like a paid advertisement (which I hope it was HAHA), but the Foreo Iris and the rest of the Foreo devices have been staples in my collection for years.

Do you notice a difference? Have you ever tried it before? Let me know in the comments down below!

With the raise of toner pads in the last couple of months, I’m happy to say I’m back on the bandwagon. I know it is a bit wasteful, however when I’m half asleep at 4:30 am getting ready for work, these are so easy to use and already has toners/ essences soaked into them. Here is a guide on (almost) all the toner pads Medicube has to offer.

𝙕𝙚𝙧𝙤 𝙥𝙤𝙧𝙚 𝙥𝙖𝙙𝙨:
-BHA (salicylic acid), AHA to help exfoliate
-Anti-sebum P to minize pores
-helps enlarged pores, dull and rough skin, greasy skin, blackheads & whiteheads

𝙍𝙚𝙙 𝙨𝙪𝙘𝙘𝙞𝙣𝙘 𝙖𝙘𝙞𝙙 𝙥𝙖𝙣𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙤𝙣 𝙥𝙖𝙙𝙨:
-Succinic acid to prevent breakouts and reducing inflammation triggered by acne-causing bacteria
-Panthenol improves skin barrier + encourages skin growth
-Niacinamide fades acne scars, dark spots, hyperpigmentation
-Salicylic acid (BHA) exfoliates dead skin cells

𝘿𝙚𝙚𝙥 𝙑𝙞𝙩𝙖 𝘾 𝙥𝙖𝙙𝙨:
-Vitamin c + panthenol to brighten and moisturize
-Niacinamide reduce/ prevents acne
-Vitamin E, Q, P to brighten dull skin & improve skin texture
-Sea buckthorn extract treats dark spots and blemishes

At the moment, I’m really enjoy the deep vita C pads. It is very nourishing, leaves my skin very glowy and the vitamin C doesn’t burn my skin! I use this in the morning alongside sunscreen to prevent sun damage and hyperpigmentation.

Which one works with your skin type? Which one would you choose?
