My Skin Is Transformed Since Using This K-Beauty Brand—5 Products I Recommend

Key ingredients: The brand’s Korean herbal oil complex and hydra capture complex

Size: 200ml

I always like to start my skincare routine with an oil-based cleanser to break down any makeup before following up with my second cleanse. I love this formula as it’s suitable for all skin types and removes even the most stubborn mascara without irritating my eyes. The lightweight texture feels hydrating without leaving any oily residue on the skin like other cleansers I have tried. Instead, it leaves my complexion looking plump and glowy. Plus, it has a fresh, herbaceous scent, which makes removing your makeup at the end of the day even more enjoyable.

Key ingredients: The brand’s hydra capture complex, raspberry fruit, mulberry leaf, mountain yam, cocoa

Size: 200ml

As mentioned, I always follow up with a second cleanse, but I was skeptical about trying this cleansing foam. I’ve never gotten on with foam formulas before, as they are usually quite drying on the skin. However, I was told that this was ideal for both dry and sensitive skin, so I put it to the test. What I like about this formula is that it features fine bubbles to remove makeup. It’s like you can see and feel it cleansing the skin, yet when you wash it all away, your skin is actually incredibly soft. It’s probably the only foam cleanser I’ve ever got on with, and I don’t plan on changing it anytime soon.

Key ingredients: Korean ginseng

Size: 150ml

This is a really interesting product. I’m calling it a toner, but really, it’s just a great hydration booster for everyday use. It has a lightweight, almost gel-like texture that sinks into the skin instantly and adds the most gorgeous glow. Not only that, but it also helps protect the skin barrier. I simply apply a few drops to my hands before pressing the product into my skin whenever my complexion is dull or lacklustre, and immediately feel like a brand new person.

Key ingredients: Lotus, peony, rehmannia, white lily

Size: 60ml

One of the brand’s most popular products is the First Care Activating Serum VI, and wow, I can see why people love it. Few serums have left my skin as radiant as this. Although the formulation feels very lightweight, it packs a punch thanks to a potent blend of Korean herbs, such as lotus and peony. Its aim? To nourish and revitalise the skin while adding noticeable radiance. Let me tell you, it delivers on all fronts.

Key ingredients: Korean ginseng

Size: 50ml

My favourite product from the brand is, without a doubt, this face cream. A sensorial delight, the deeply hydrating moisturiser comes in the form of a lightweight gel-cream that feels like silk on the skin. Ginseng peptides support the skin barrier and enhance elasticity, resulting in a plump, glowing complexion that makes it look like I’ve just had an hour-long facial. Oh, and it smells just like a spa, which always helps.
