The best Korean cleansers for oily skin

It's time for Korean beauty products! Today I'm going to introduce my ultimate favorite Korean face cleansers. On my blog I focus on products which I personally find useful and effective. As mentioned in my previous posts , my skin type is oily or mixed so I need products to reduce excessive oil on the skin. I have done a lot of research and ended up buying these two popular products from Skinfood sales back in Korea. Let's see how they are! The Black Sugar Mask has real organic sugar in it which exfoliates and nourishes the skin. It is enriched with vitamins and it smells very pleasant. It has slight citrus scent though overall it smells very sweet. Every time I apply it on my face, I want to taste it because the scent is so delicious! Apply and massage the sugar mask after cleaning the face and let it stay there 10-15 minutes. The texture is pretty thick so I always mix it with some water. After the mask has been on the skin for a while just rinse it off with so...

The Best Korean Eyelash Curler

As most of the people know cosmetics and beauty products are close to my heart — especially Korean ones. You can barely find any other than Korean products from my makeup bag ( for example  The best Korean foundation for Oily skin )  and that's for a reason: they are good quality, ahead of western ones and in many cases cheaper. I would like to introduce you my favorite eyelash curler which I use on a regular basis to get beautiful eyelashes. It is cheap, stylish and it works! The curler is Curl Fix from Etude House and it costs less than 5 euros. The color is black matte so it also looks better than cheap iron ones. It doesn't pinch eye lids at all so I guess it is perfect for my eye shape! Here you can see a before picture: My lashes are light and not really thick so I need a bit stronger curler to make them look good. After cleaning your skin and waiting the moisturizer to dry is an ideal moment to curl the lashes. After curling I put some mascara. For example Etud...

The best Korean foundation for oily skin

When I came to Korea for the first time I fell in love with cosmetics here. South Korea is well known for their huge beauty industry and I bet anyone who has been here knows that they have thousands of amazing products for every kind of people. My skin type is oily and the color is light so I have always struggled to find decent priced makeup foundation which is not too dark and stays longer on my face. Luckily, Korea saved me! Let me introduce you Double Lasting Foundation from Etude House . What does it do? The foundation promises to be long-lasting and offer a semi-matte finish. The touch is light and the scent is delightful. The double lasting foundation should cover your skin with single coat and make it flawless. It is also said to adhere the skin without making it heavy or caky. There are various shades for different skin tones, so I guess many people can find a good one for themselves! How to use it? Clean and moisturize the skin well. Shake the bottle up and down ...

Lush Surprise

We all know Lush - the store full of scents when we pass by. As a not big surprise, Lush is also super popular in Korea. I barely find an area without Lush! Today I want to introduce a surprise box I got as a present. The box was cute and colorful like Lush products in general. When I opened it I didn't know what to expect. What was inside there? I got a blue "Whoosh Shower jelly" and a "Herbalism Face and Body cleanser". Both include 100% vegetarian ingredients and like other Lush products they are not tested on animals. In addition to that, they are handmade in Lush "kitchens". It's better to keep the products inside the fridge because of the fresh ingredients  —  they maintain good only a couple of months. Shower jelly is made with softening seaweed gel, essential oils and fruits extracts. It has a scent of citrus and the texture is thick jelly. The color resembles of bright blue seawater with glitter. Because of the texture you are s...
