Korean Skincare and Cosmetics

[ohcmon]

^^ Add essence + ampoule/serum to your skincare routine. These are applied before moisturizer. Etude House, Mizon, Missha and the likes have the collagen variant naman which is helpful to defy skin aging. If you want mas high end, SK II.

I'm only in my early 20s but my routine is to cleanse + exfoliate once a week + tone + essence + ampoule + mask twice a week + eye cream + moisturizer + night cream.

Nakakapagod magpaganda.

^Ano marecommend mo na essence na may visible improvements talaga sa skin? May nabasa kasi ako na after long usage, mas nagiging oily sila / nagbbreak out na sila

[ohcmon]

^ I use SK-II Facial Treatment Essence. Skin feels cleaner and brighter. No breakouts whatsoever naman. Only downside is medyo mahal siya. Missha Time Revolution Essence daw ang dupe but I haven't tried so can't say if they're similar.

^^sis ohcmon, where do you buy SKII products here in Manila? Wala pa yata ako nakikita sa malls. I regret not buying it when I went to HK, kulang na kasi sa budget :p

[ohcmon]

^ Sis, no SK-II in Pinas, AFAIK. I buy from Luxola. Free shipping on purchases P1,300 up.

Mga sis, may kiosk or store ba ng Peripera dito satin? Wala kasi ako nakita sa Megamall. Gusto kong itry yung Lumi Pang Tints especially yung shades PK08 and PK10! Super pretty!

[5tarfruit]

^sis, unfortunately wala pa dito sa'tin. Best bet talaga is to order from online sellers sight unseen.

[budzwhiz]

^ & ^^ meron sa Beauty Bar.

[parpol_haze]

@5tarfruit- Kaya nga sis. Sa IG ko lang din nakikita talaga yung Peripera tapos wala pa kong nakikitang nagbebenta ng Lumi Pang tints.

@budzwhiz-  Talaga sis? Will check sa Podium!

I'm using Laneige Water Bank series. Super dry kasi ang skin ko. Ito HG facial care ko. I tried the White Renew series, nag-break out ako e. Sayang nga e... Kaya I'm back to Water Bank.

[vuzhia]

anong brand may available na bar soap for sensitive skin na hindi naman whitening soap, parang brightening soap lang na nakaka pantay ng skin tone, yung ganong tipo ahaha!

ayaw ko kase ng whitening na mahapdi sa balat tapos katagalan mukhang papel na sa puti, kumbaga pampa glowing skin lang, ahaha!

[alicerose]

My most recent purchase is the Missha Revolution First Treatment (na dupe daw ni SK II Facial Treatment Essence, pero since hindi ko pa naman yun na-try can't compare haha) 

So far, okay naman siya. Nakakatulong siya sa redness and peeling from my tret, also my face feels smoother and plumper and firmer if that makes sense. Kasi sabi daw pag naka-tret parang feeling fragile yung skin sa face. So far, parang nakakatulong yung essence dito.

My moisturizer before was Laneige's Water Bank series, it was good (sobrang bango) but yun lang, when my face started to dry up because of tret, hindi na niya kaya. I had to switch to Physiogel. Pero sometimes I alternate it lalo na ngayon my face is adjusting.

I also tried Innisfree's Volcanic Pore Clay mask. Oks naman siya, pero tinigil ko muna nung nag decide ako mag tret.

[kikoshei]

Mga sis anong Korean brand ang available sa major retailer sa Pinas? I live here in the US and I'm helping my mom to build her routine.Thanks!

[strawberryswitchblade]

^ As far as I know there's Banila Co, Etude House, Laneige, The Face Shop, Nature Republic, Yadah, Clio, Tony Moly. Not sure if Skin Food in Glorietta is still open.


Does anyone know what happened to Too Cool For School? All their shops closed but they did not release a statement (their FB/Twitter accounts are gone). I love their mascara, too bad I wasn't able to buy backups before they closed
