Hada Labo Oil Cleanser Review

September 7, 2021 by Jolina

Hada Labo Oil Cleanser gently but effectively removes makeup, dirt, and other impurities from the skin while providing moisture and hydration so your skin feels soft, smooth and supple after every use.

If you’re a fan of double cleansing like I am, chances are you’re also a fan of DHC Cleansing Oil, the cult-favourite oil cleanser.

It’s my go-to first cleanser at night and I really have no reason to switch.

Until I saw that Hada Labo, one of my favourite skincare and beauty brands, carried an oil cleanser too. I just had to try!

Like their other skin care products, Hada Labo Oil Cleanser goes by different names, like:

Hadalabo Gokujun Cleansing Oil
Hada Labo Gokujyun Cleansing Oil
Rohto Hadalabo Gokujun Cleansing Oil
Hada Labo Make Up Remover

They all refer to the same product.

COSRX Snail Mucin Cleanser Review

August 18, 2021 by Jolina

COSRX Snail Mucin Cleanser is a gentle gel cleanser that delivers a deep and thorough clean. It’s also packed with 10,000ppm of snail secretion filtrate for renewed, hydrated, youthful skin.

Do you use snail mucin in your skincare routine? Snail mucin is a powerhouse ingredient that’s a big part of Korean skin care culture.

I’m a huge fan of COSRX Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence myself. I’ve been using it for a while and it’s definitely changed my complexion for the better.

So when I saw that COSRX also has an Advanced Snail Mucin Gel Cleanser, I immediately snatched it up and gave it a try.

Is it as good as the snail mucin essence? Let’s find out.

What is a Sheet Mask and is it Necessary in our Skincare Routine?

While they used to be predominantly part of Japanese and Korean beauty and skincare culture, sheet masks have now become so popular that even Hollywood a-listers post selfies with a sheet mask on.

But do we really need them in our skincare routine? Are they effective or is it all hype? What’s the proper way to use them? How often and when?

Skin & Lab C Plus Brightening Review

July 19, 2021 by Jolina

Skin & Lab C Plus Brightening is a lightweight moisturizer enriched with vitamin C to help brighten and even out skin tone for a healthier, more radiant complexion.

Vitamin C is a powerhouse skincare ingredient. It’s been proven to:

Even out skin tone and texture
Diminish the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
Brighten overall complexion, and more

It’s a great (and some would say, necessary) addition to your skincare routine.

While they’re probably the most popular, serums are not the only way to add vitamin C to your skin care routine.

If you have sensitive skin like me, starting with vitamin C moisturizers and creams is a good option to see how well your skin likes it. This helps build tolerance for beginners too.

Klairs Rich Moist Soothing Cream provides immediate and long-lasting moisture that helps restore and protect skin’s natural barrier for healthier, more youthful skin.

Klairs Rich Moist Soothing Cream is part of the brand’s Rich Moist Soothing line.

I reviewed Klairs Rich Moist Soothing Serum a few weeks ago and found that it worked great as a summer moisturizer for my skin, which switches from combination-dry in the colder months to combination-oily in the warmer months.

This soothing cream is formulated to provide a much deeper hydration that lasts longer and helps your skin feel smoother, softer and look more radiant.
