2017 I’ve been a huge fan of any organic products and then around 2018 I’m starting to fall in love with Korean products, when it comes to perfect skin I adore Koreans a lot, like how they made it possible. Those smooth, fair and glass skin, I want it so badly. That’s why I decided to completely use all skin care products that are made from Korea and see what will happen to my face. I’ve done my research on what products to buy, I’m currently loving the blog of www.theklog.co. It’s a blog talking about skin care and Korean products, what I love about this blog is that it’s so on-point and they give too much information, which I really adore.
After cleansing my face, I started my skin care routine with
a Toner. A lot of people had been asking me, what is the use of Toner, in my
own understanding Toner helps to remove excess dirt in our face that cleansing
cannot remove alone, it also balance the Ph level in our skin. So, for Toner I
used the Cosrx Galactomyces Alcohol Free Toner.
Theklog. co -----“Cosrx
Galactomyces Alcohol Free Toner. While the the product name might say it all,
it goes without saying that this toner is meant to hydrate and nourish without
stripping the skin like traditional Western toners can. This particular one has
10% galactomyces ferment filtrate, which helps to even out your skin and refine
texture while hyaluronic acid provides intense moisture.”
In my own review:
The Cosrx Galactomyces Alcohol Free Toner is certainly worth
to buy, I bought it in Lazada TH, and the name of the shop is Becosthailand for
550 THB. First impression with the packaging is so crazy, the bottle is big and
enough for me to say that it will last 1 month and a half for me. However, I
just don’t like that it’s a spray bottle, I’m not use to a Toner that I have to
spray to the cotton pads, I’m used to dropping all products to the cotton pads
directly and apply it to my skin. Anyways, it’s lightweight, no fragrance, easy
to absorb and for 4 days now, I can see that my face is starting to brighten.
After Toner, I followed my Essence. Essence helps to prepare
our skin for our moisturizer, eye cream, serum and etc. to absorb into our skin
easily and efficiently. I used the COSRX Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence.
Theklog. co -----“ COSRX
Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence. This essence is packed with 96% snail
secretion filtrate. Snail mucin is a great acne-fighting ingredient because
it’s antimicrobial and has naturally occurring glycolic acid. It also boosts
collagen production and replenishes moisture in the skin, helping to heal acne
scars and prevent excess oil production. This essence is also fragrance-free
and has a pH of 6.5.”
In my own review:
I bought the COSRX Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence in
a Korean store in Terminal 21 Pattaya, I’m not sure the name of the store
because it’s written in Korean, and I bought it for 690 THB. The bottle is the
same with the Cosrx Galactomyces Alcohol Free Toner, however, it is smaller
than the Toner and it’s a pumping bottle. Since it’s a Snail Mucin expect of a
very sticky texture, even though it’s very sticky, it’s still light weight in
the face. They said that it easily absorbs, but for me it doesn’t, it takes a
while to fully absorb into my skin. The effect is okay, it’s been 4 days now
and I still haven’t seen any major effect, however it nourishes my skin and
hydrated.
Next, is Moisturizer, I had been having a difficult time
lately because I’ve tried so many Moisturizer but nothing works as I want them
to work. But when I read all about Banila Co Dear Hydration Boosting Cream, claiming
a glass skin effect. Without any brainstorming and hesitation, I decided to buy
it.
Theklog.co -----“ Banila
Co Dear Hydration Boosting Cream is rich in antioxidants and act as a
moisturizing agents, helping to heal dry and flaky skin. As hydrating as this
product sounds, it does also contain healing ingredient such as neem, moringa
seed oil, and mint. Neem helps with your acne, while the moringa seed oil, mint,
and scotch pine, help soothe various skin irritations. You also have
brightening agents, such as niacinamide, and holy basil to help with evening
out your skin tone and any redness. Overall, these ingredients allow for a
well-balanced product to effectively hydrate skin, without clogging pores and
potentially causing any breakouts.”
In my own review:
The Banila Co Dear Hydration Boosting Cream is the most
expensive product that I bought in my entire life, LOL! But it’s definitely worth
the money. I bought it again in Lazada, the name of the shop is SoKorea for 854
THB. I’m so surprised when the package arrived, because the seller is so
thoughtful enough to give me a sample of the Banila Co White Wedding Sleeping
Essence, which is amazing, but I will not include that in my review here of
course, comment down below if you want me to do my Night time skin care
routine. Back to Banila Co Dear Hydration Boosting Cream, the packaging is so
cute and perfect maybe because it’s pink? LOL! It has a silicon spatula to help
get the products. The texture is creamy and pink as well, but when you applied
it its white. The moisturizer is lightweight, not easy to absorb, and no
fragrance at all. For 4 days now of using the moisturizer I can see the
improvement of my skin, it became brighter, softer and dewy to give me that
glass skin effect.
My last skin care routine is Sunscreen, sunscreen is very
important loves whether you are outdoor or indoor, even the weather is gloomy
or rainy always use a sunscreen to protect your skin. I’ve spent a lot of money
for skin care, I don’t want it to be wasted just because of UV rays. I used the
Nivea sun Protect & White SPF 50+ and PA+++. To know more about Sunscreen
click here.
Theklog.co -----“ We often get asked whether or not you really
need to wear SPF when it’s not hot and sunny outside, and the truth is that
while UV rays may not be as strong when it’s cold or cloudy, any exposure (that
even includes through windows) can cause skin damage. When in doubt, it’s
always better to just wear the sunscreen.”
And that was my updated skin care routine and products for
2019 loves, if you are on a budget but want to buy skin care products, Theklog.co
