1) Lime Nature Double Very Moisturizing Cream - 75ml/ Full size product ($39)


This cream is lilac in color, isn't it cute?

I like how this product is enriched with so many ancient medicinal herbs. Herbal products always soothe my skin. This moisturizer has a gel like texture and made my skin feel super hydrated and comfortable right after use.
 
Product Description:
Lime Nature's Double Very Moisturizing Cream is enriched with acai berry complex and a rich blend of ancient medicinal herbs such as chuanxiong rhizome, peony, licorice root, kudzu root, portulaca, and cornflower. This gentle, hydrating formula extracted straight from the nature delivers rich moisture and nutrients deep down into the skin, locking it in for lasting suppleness and radiance.
How to use:
Apply evenly over clean face. Pat it in for full absorbance.

2) Daltokki Facial Scrub - 90ml/ Full size product ($30)






Besides being natural, rice also works very well as a skin care item. If you haven't tried washing your face with rice water yet, then what are you waiting for??? It definitely helps brighten up dull skin. This Facial Scrub contains glutinous rice and is super gooey in texture. The granules are easily detectable but without being too rough on the skin. It is surely a fun product to use. :)

Product Description:
This Facial Scrub is made from the Korean glutinous rice cake - known to be rich in various vitamins and nutrients - and it works to smooth out and clarify the skin by exfoliating dead skin cells and dry, flaky patches. Its sticky, cheesy formula is not only fun to play with but also rejuvenating and nourishing to the skin. The natural rice cake grains gently exfoliate without any stimulation and is suitable for all skin types and ages.
How to use:
Spread the scrub evenly over wet face. Gently massage onto skin using your fingers. Rinse off with lukewarm water. Follow with a moisturizing toner and cream. Make sure to store the product in a cool place and be careful not to get any water in it, as the real rice cake extracts could go bad.
 

3) Tosowoong Syn-ake Wrinkle Free Essence - 100ml/ Full size product ($30)



Have you guys heard about Syn-ake yet? Apparently it has become a very popular ingredient in many Asian cosmetic products. It is a compound with properties similar to snake venom, which is capable of relaxing your muscles - sort of like Botox but without all the side effects. OK... perhaps not that potent, but it is definitely worth a try. 
 
Product Description:
Firm up and fill in the fine wrinkles, and maintain a healthy moisture & oil balance with this wrinkle care essence. The Tosowoong Syn-ake skin care series is formulated with syn-ake complex - a kind of peptide carrying similar constituents to snake venom - EGF, adenosine, galactomyces ferments, and bifida ferments. This all-natural formula instantly alleviates sensitive, stimulated skin and rejuvenate and strengthens dry, dulled skin. 
How to use:
Pump out and apply evenly over clean face. Pat it in for full absorbance.
 

4) Soy BIO+ Fermented Lumpoule - 5ml * 2ea/ Deluxe sample




The texture of this product is somewhere between a toner and a serum. This ampoule should be followed by a moisturizer because it doesn't have much hydrating properties on its own. This is my first time trying a fermented soy bean skin care product and I am excited to find out the long term results.

Product Description:
"Lumpoule" is a combination of two words - "lump" and "ampoule" - and is basically a facial ampoule made from 100% Korean fermented soy bean lump. It'll work to prevent formation of fine lines and wrinkles and also brighten up the overall complexion. 
How to use:
Apply 2 - 3 drops of the ampoule to clean face. Pat it in for full absorbance.
 

5) Purederm Make-up Cleansing Tissue - 30ea/ Full size product ($6)


Mmmm... Makeup wipes... As mentioned in my previous posts, I am not a big fan of cleansing tissues in general. However, it could be a life saver whenever I am super tired and lazy to wash my face. Just remember: never go to bed with makeup on unless you don't mind having clog pores. 
 
Product Description:
Easy to carry around, disposable cleansing tissues enriched with nutrients from one of the most beloved herbs in the Eastern world - green tea leaf. Its nature-friendly formula is gentle to all skin types and it effectively wipes away all traces of makeup residues and skin impurities.
How to use:
Take 1 sheet and remove lip & eye makeup first. Then gently wipe it all over the face.


Some people swear by makeup wipes given its convenience. I just think they don't do a very good job in cleansing. Have you tried any brand that is able to remove waterproof makeup effectively?
