I think this product is a modern take on the idea of day and night cream; they are in one jar instead of two — a very bright idea. The ingredients lists of the creams look dense, but in reality, there aren’t many extracts, vitamins, peptides, etc. that we usually find in Korean products. The… Read More NEOGEN Vita Duo Cream Joan Day Joan Night – Review
This sunscreen is not the most cosmetically elegant product out there; there are certainly better options available.

Let me tell you upfront that… Read More Kanebo Allie Extra UV Facial Gel SPF 50+ PA++++ – Review
This sunscreen is the 2019 version of the UV Expert Aqua Gel. I’ve picked up the gel version, as I’d thought a gel sunscreen would be light and more suitable for hot, summery weather. Similarly to the Lancôme UV Expert Milky Bright, which I reviewed a few months ago, this product provides high protection against… Read More Lancôme UV Expert Aqua Gel SPF 50 PA++++ (2019 Version) – Review
This mask was released during the period when Korean brands were introducing cica lines. Just like most of the other products, this one also contains cantella asiatica – the ingredient that we all love and look out for. This product has a thick and creamy, gel-like consistency, but it absorbs pretty well. A little goes… Read More Etude House Soon Jung Panthensoside 5 Cica Sleeping Pack – Review
I like this mask – it does what it says on the box, and it’s relatively affordable. I have gone through a few jars of this mask since its launch. By the way, in some markets, it’s also called Anew Clinical Overnight Hydration Mask. Here’s what Avon say about it: The unique gel formula is… Read More Avon Anew Clinical Defend & Repair Advanced Hydration Overnight Mask – Review

This cleanser is from Watsons’ Target Pro line, which is supposed to be a clinical/pro one with a lot of eye-catching ingredients. The products are meant to treat the skin and strengthen its barrier – that’s the general concept of the line. There are three ingredients written on the tube ‘Diamond Sirt, Ceramide and Thermal… Read More TARGET PRO BY WATSONS Essential Hot Cleansing Gel – Review
I think this is one of the oldest Korean sunscreens; I had been postponing buying this sunscreen for years, as I knew it would be just like many other mineral-only sunscreens – drying and ashy. This sunscreen contains titanium dioxide and zinc oxide, not micronised, as well as iron oxides that help to protect from… Read More Innisfree Daily UV Protection Cream No Sebum SPF 35 PA+++ – Review
I usually don’t shop from Estee Lauder, they don’t carry many products that catch my attention, but this one is amazing. I notice quite a lot of inspiration from Asian beauty in this product, and let me explain to you why. Estee Lauder’s description of the product: Sheer fresh moisture without excess shine. Supercharges skin… Read More Estee Lauder Nutritious Micro-Algae Pore Minimizing Hydra Lotion – Review
This sunscreen makes me very happy, especially after two recent failures, because it does what it says on the box. Let me start by saying that this product has been repackaged. It’s the same formula but in a sky-blue bottle instead of a yellow one. Don’t confuse it with a new sunscreen in a pink… Read More Rohto Mentholatum Skin Aqua UV Super Moisture Milk SPF 50+ PA++++ – Review
This cleanser is one of the products that Pixi have created in collaboration with beauty gurus, in this case with Caroline Hirons. Pixi make a lot of great products, but this cleanser is just superb. First of all, the packaging is very practical – ideal for daily use and travelling; but also the formulas of… Read More Pixi x Caroline Hirons Double Cleanse – Review
Here’s another product from the Hada Labo Tokyo line. This lotion is quite similar to the original lotion sold in Japan; however, the ingredients are slightly different just like in other products from the same line. I picked up a couple of bottles of this lotion last autumn in Poland, and I’ve been using it… Read More Hada Labo Tokyo No. 1 Super Hydrator – Review
Here’s a review of another reformulated sunscreen this year, unfortunately not a successful one. This formula just as the previous one is a mix of chemical filters and titanium dioxide. It is water resistant and suitable for all skin types, intended for both face and body.
