Updated Korean Skincare Routine For Trouble/Acne-Prone Skin

Updated Korean Skincare Routine For Trouble/Acne-Prone Skin

 I know, right! My thoughts exactly – I’ve become obsessed with Korean skincare products 😉 Fear not, my trial and error days are over. I’m sticking to these products at least till summer. I will still be reviewing the previously used ones in case they would be more beneficial to someone else.  So, as I mentioned in my previous Korean beauty posts, most of the products initially listed in my routine were great but not great enough for trouble/acne-prone skin.…

Benton Snail Bee High Content Essence Review

Benton Snail Bee High Content Essence Review

 This review of the Benton snail bee high content essence is so long overdue.

I never used…

SkinFood Aloe Vera Foaming Cleanser Review

SkinFood Aloe Vera Foaming Cleanser Review

  Today, i will be sharing with you the second part of the double cleansing method i mentioned in my first korean skincare post, which involves the use of this Skinfood Aloe Vera foaming cleanser after an oil cleanser (already reviewed in this post). The reason for this double cleansing method is:  (1) Oil and water doesn’t mix, so the oil cleanser cleanses oil-based impurities like makeup, sebum, etc which water-based cleansers won’t be able to effectively cleanse (2) Foam/Cream cleansers cleanses…
