This product is upsetting on so many levels, the best way to describe it would be: the price is steep, and the results are meagre. The main ingredient in the formula is fermented green tea extract; thanks to this ingredient we are supposed to see the betterment of ‘the look of elasticity, clarity and texture’… Read More Amorepacific Vintage Single Extract Essence — Review
This sunscreen is terrific, I’ve enjoyed using it, but it doesn’t work for my skin type. This product offers very high protection of SPF 50+ and PA++++(4). The formula includes emollient ingredients as the base, as it’s a stick-type sunscreen and a mix of titanium dioxide with chemical UV filters. There is a bit of… Read More IOPE UV Shield Sun Stick SPF 50+ – Review
I am not sure what to say about this product, there are a lot of claims, but not many results. My first issues arise with the ingredients of this serum. It is supposed to be spot and blemish (in my understanding hyperpigmentation) clearing, but there isn’t enough in the formula to deliver these effects. We… Read More CosRx AC Collection Blemish Spot Clearing Serum – Review
It’s been a while since I’ve talked about this brand, so here’s another review of Dr. Jart +’s product. This sunscreen contains a mix of chemical filters which provides us with good anti-UV protection of SPF 50+ and PA++++ (4). The sunscreen contains a lot of skin-benefiting ingredients like adenosine, ceramide NP, and niacinamide, to… Read More Dr. Jart+ Every Sun Day Moisturizing Sun SPF 50+ – Review
This essence is another popular dupe for the famous SK II Essence in Korea and outside of it. The main ingredient in this product is galactomyces ferment filtrate, the same type of ferment as in the SK II Essence, but in a higher concentration of 95.7% compared to only 90%. The formula also includes adenosine,… Read More From Nature Age Intense Treatment Essence – Review
This is one of the most popular essences in Korea and abroad, and I’ve wanted to try it for a long time. Here’s a review of it. This essence is not based on ferments; the main ingredient here is lotus seed extract which is rich in vitamins from the B group, omega(-amino) fatty acids, and… Read More Primera Miracle Seed Essence – Review
The Advanced Snail Peptide Eye Cream is one of the newest additions to CosRx’s lineup, and as always CosRx didn’t disappoint. The main ingredient in this product is snail secretion filtrate constituting 72% of the formula. Snail secretion filtrate is mainly known for its skin-rejuvenating properties; it calms the skin, takes away redness, and helps… Read More CosRx Advanced Snail Peptide Eye Cream – Review
The review is going to be short because the product is simply bad. The main three results that this product is supposed to deliver are firmer skin, fewer wrinkles, and youthful-looking eye area. I couldn’t notice any of these results, instead, it made my eye look like a raisin. During the three-week testing period of… Read More IOPE Bio Eye Cream Youth Complete – Review
This is one of the original centella asiatica products that sparked the hype around the ingredient a few years ago. Centella asiatica had been used before the hype, but it wasn’t the main ingredient in skincare products. The ampoule contains mainly centella asiatica leaf water, 85%, there’s also extract from the plant, but in a… Read More CosRx Centella Blemish Ampule – Review
When I first saw this product, it reminded me of the Bio-Essence Hydra Tri-Action Mask, which was quite popular a few years ago. Mainly it was because both products have an exciting dew-creating gimmick. Technically, when you apply either of the two products, water droplets are supposed to create on the surface of your skin,… Read More CosRx Light Fit Real Water Toner To Cream – Review
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 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 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 don’t even recall which reformulation of the Missha’s essence it is, but it’s another one. If you liked the old version, stock up on it, or forget about it altogether. New formulas are here, and this is one of them. I don’t have much information about the essence, but on the box, it’s written… Read More Missha Time Revolution The First Treatment Essence Rx – Review
