Originally this video was going to be my 2023 K Beauty empties but then I realized I was introduced to so many great Korean beauty products this year that I still want to share even though I haven’t finished them so we’re about to go through every single Korean beauty
Product I’ve used this year and rate it with a simple repurchase or not repurchase to keep things simple let’s do this in categories from cleanser all the way to sunscreens and retinals starting with the first step of every skin routine cleansers I do double cleans and I alternate between an oil
And a bomb however this is made in Japan so we’re going to put this down for now and focus on this helish all clean balm this is a repurchase for me this was the first ever cleansing balm I’ve ever used and I love this thing down from the
Packaging with the little scooper all the way to the way that the product works it gets my makeup right off I love the way that it sticks to the skin and the makeup so that it’s not dripping everywhere and then it gives you the opportunity to really rub the product
Into your skin then as you apply water it becomes a Milky consistency it’s a great product all around and definitely does its job well hey baby love welome back to the fiesta if you’re new here my name is k shad and if you’re not you’re loyal don’t forget to subscribe click
The notification Bell down below if you’re interested in seeing weekly hair or skin product reviews tips tricks and advice every Sunday then for my follow-up cleanser yall should all be familiar by now this is the COS RX Advanced snil musin cleanser this cleanser is meant to remove impurities
And keep your skin moisturized that is exactly what it does for me and to be honest since I’ve started using this along with a few of these products I have not had an eczema flare up on my face I think it just truly nourishes and moisturizes my skin on a deeper level
Where I’m not drying out the way that I used to it cleans my skin especially after using the bomb or the oil and just not strip my face of its natural oils it’s such a silky smooth cleanser and my and my face always feels smoother and looks brighter after using it I love
This cleanser I’ve been using it for about 2 years now and I don’t think I’m going back I have not tried any other cleanser in a long time and I don’t feel like I need to it’s not even a question by the way this is such a repurchase I’m
Going keep using it next up we have toners this is the Tony moly Wonder camide Mochi toner I love the price point for this bottle this thing is 16.9 fluid ounces and it cost $20 not only does a little go a long way but this $20
Is going to take you far it lasts you so long I stopped using it consistently just because the next tone I introduced has me in a choke hold right now but this is soothing it gets your skin hydrated nourishing you can layer up with it it talks about Mochi and bouny
Like skin it definitely does that it’s going to nourish your skin it’s going to have it super hydrated and just glowy looking I am stuck in the in between on if I would repurchase it or not simply because I have found a toner that works better for me but I really like this
Toner it just re the way it provides hydration the way that it provides hydration it actually helps retain moisture really well I do enjoy using it I think that there’s certain people that it would work better for that they Fe results faster now simply because I have
Other toners I would say I don’t need it that does not mean I don’t think you should try this though it’s a really good toner now the next two toners are my favorites one is from my day routine one is for my night routine and they are
The P Kang yo Essence toner and the metah hill macide blemish pad I use this one at night just to really prevent acne and fight my way through any blemishes I’ve been dealing with and it actually helps with hyperpigmentation as well which I really am focused on right now I
Have noticed a difference in my skin mainly in texture but for sure in my dark spots check out my transformation video if you want to see what it was able to do in a week all around this blemish pad does not play and when I use
This where I feel like it’s a little stronger at night especially because it has a textured side so I feel like I have like a little gentle exfoliation going on every night so I use this for night and make sure to use this in the morning because it packs in the moisture
In such a silky soft way this has a thicker consistency than most like waterbased toners or like a myel water type of liquid consistency it is not as thick as a serum it’s just in the middle it’s it’s a I love the texture and it’s
Just known as a gentle toner that a lot of skin types can use it does not clog my pores and it definitely leaves me with a glowy hydrated look in the morning that I absolutely love so these are the two toners that had me in the
Choke cold these are both for sure going to be repurchased when they’re done highlighting this one mainly because of the way that it’s been dealing with the texture and hyperpigmentation I’ll be repurchasing this for sure I’ll guess I’ll include this Essence into the toner pile this product right here is such a
Love I think you already know what this is this is the COS RX snail muin power Essence I can’t help but repurchase this product this is the first product I’ve ever heard about using snail muin and when I heard about this is how it’s introduced to the cleanser this is such
A hydrating silky product it is not one that everyone can use usually they say uh if you can’t use it or if you break out it’s because you have allergies to snail muin I definitely have never used snil mus before this product but I am so
Happy with it it focuses on keeping your skin healthy smooth that’s exactly what it does in my opinion I love using it over my hydrating toners you definitely don’t want to use this on dry skin hydration first and watch how this just gets it a little extra like oof when you
Use this after long-term use with this my skin looks hydrated it looks useful it looks tighter it looks just looks like it’s good you got to use it to understand what type of result this gives you I have talked about this many times on my channel already just
Genuinely it’s a repurchase every time it’s not a necessary steping routine but it’s a great beneficial step you’re going to see genuine hydration and smoothness long-term healthy looking skin for sure let’s get into our serums first this is a viral one this is the AIS y dark spot correcting glow serum
And I spoke highly of this product I still stand by it it’s not one that worked fast enough for me in my hyper pigmentation but there is a reason why people love it it is gentle it’s a great addition to your routine it has a bunch of great ingredients in it like ninine
And sine I know a lot of people’s skin just all around loves it it did not work fast enough for me and what I was expecting in terms of results but I loved how gentle it was I never was irritated it gave a glow for sure just
So to have a product that’s focused on Fading your dark spots while also giving you glowy healthy skin that’s come on that’s a win-win for me it is a not repurchasing because it doesn’t work fast enough for me this is the beauty of Joan glow serum with propolis and nice
Camide I really really wanted to love this serum unfortunately it’s not repurchased for me simply because it gave me a glow my skin looked so healthy and glowy see like even right here where the sun’s hitting it looked like that walking out in the sun all the time but
I no there no difference I’m like okay like glow serum it’s cute but like what what are you really doing for me it didn’t it didn’t it didn’t have the impact I was expecting from how highly people talk of the serum I don’t know I
Just thought it was going to do a little more and my dark spots were a lot darker at the time I didn’t feel like it was helping in that sense either so in the end I just didn’t feel like it was a necessary step for me out of all the
Serums I could continue using and incorporating this one didn’t excite me this is the skin and lab vitamin C brightening serum when I first started getting into my skin care and really focusing I knew that vitamin C was a really highly recommended vitamin C at the time was highly recommended I feel
Like now people don’t really recommend it a lot of people dermatologist and estheticians say it don’t even work and I’ve had found that to be the case for me although you can get a glow and it’s good to have incorporate vitamin C into your body I feel like that’s more
Beneficial to me to make sure I’m having a good vitamin C intake versus vitamin C serums I just don’t see the impact and that’s how I felt about this although it’s super lightweight absorbs very quickly and worked well with the rest of my routine I didn’t really notice a
Difference in my skin when incorporating it it felt like I was just doing some extra step that I did not need to do so it’s not a repurchase for me next category is moist moisturizers and I want to start off strong with this right here really quick if you made it this
Far I hope you like And subscribe cuz you already vibing with your girl on this channel we care about having glowing skin and growing our hair all at an affordable price so if that is something that you’re interested in go ahead and comment down below right now
What is the next K beauty product I need to try then like subscribe and keep watching this is another one that a lot of people should be familiar with is it is the Cosa RX Advanced c29 all-in-one cream I had my doubt everybody was
Hyping it up so much on Tik Tok and I finally tried it and I see why people hype it up the texture is so different from anything I’ve ever used definitely highly Snell mucy it’s gooey it’s sticky but the way it absorbs into your skin especially when you have a hydrating
Routine is insane it just melts into the skin it doesn’t have any sticky residue left it doesn’t have a funky white pness on the skin and it doesn’t peel for me in the slightest people actually love using it under their makeup cuz it does leave your skin with a slight like
Tackiness those a few minutes after that could be a really good base for your makeup I think the whole line really just focuses on smooth healthy looking skin and it achieves that everything I’ve tried so far everything I’ve talked about including this cream does that for
You the texture makes this very fun and to know that it actually works with keeping your skin moisturized will keeping your string there’s a little left here let me show y’all look I’m shaking I’m shaking my finger and it doesn’t drop it’s like such an interesting product I actually
Really feel like the snail M line is something you should try get the mini one if you have to there’s another one that I’m just going to keep using especially for the summertime where you just want something nice and light it doesn’t it feels so weightless on the
Skin but you can like see it just Hy oh my God I can’t even try it if you have not it is a really good moisturizer especially for the summer time I love it next this is the skim and lab barrier Derm intensive cream this is meant to deeply moisturize
While protecting your barrier and it has little seeds in it they’re called fileds and you can see them but the way you rub it in and it absorbs it just melts into the skin it feels so soft it’s super weightless it hasn’t clog my pores I do
Like using it I just don’t feel like it does that much I love what my moisturizers not only keeps my skin really hydrated and glowy but it deeply deeply moisturizes I kind of want to wake up not greasy necessarily but I do want to see that that glow can last
Throughout the night to the point of me having baby bottom smooth skin I do like a thicker moisturizer I do so I won’t be repurchasing this cuz it it that impact I’m looking for is in there with this for me um but I’m not mad at it it’s a
It’s a good product this is the isant tree hyaluronic acid water sleeping Mas it’s cool I love that it’s a sleeping mask literally meant to work for you over night the consistency the gel like literally looks like a water drop right smooth in like nothing easy breezy a
Little goes a long way it definitely hydrates the heck out of your skin but you have to use a moisturizer underneath it so that it has a place to grab the moisture from and not from your skin directly I feel like I haven’t found the best moisturizer to go underneath it
Because sometimes my skin wakes up a little on the dry side because it’s hard to kind of figure out like what’s the right blend with it I’m actually mixed on if this is a repurchase or not and I have time to think about it cuz I’ve
Been using it quite a few times and I still have a good amount of product left it just you don’t need that much it definitely has a cooling relief and that is the main reason why I’m really liking it I just don’t know how much it really
Does for my skin right now I feel like I have other products that can give me the results that it gives me without having to double up on moisturizer and right now it’s a not repurchase I do believe that if I find the perfect mixture using this I would probably run and repurchase
It again I only have two options for this category and I stand by them we have the beauty of joean relief Sun rice and probiotics SPF 50 as well as the skin 104 Madagascar Santella hila water fit Sun serum spf50 as well I already already did a comparison video on these
Check it out if you’re curious they just both hit they are so good but would I repurchase both yes I would duh no questions asked let me tell you how I would use them though cuz that’s what made them both repurchases at first after using up all of these once I got
To this last one it started clogging my pores and I thought I was going to have to never repurchase it until I realized this is still going to be repurchased simply for the winter and this is going to be my it can work for all Year by the
Way cuz it doesn’t it hasn’t cloged my pores at all but mainly for the summer I’m really loving this this has a more watery hydrating glowy look for me in the summer whereas this was a bit too thick for my skin in the summer especially when I’m sweating and it was
Making me clog up but the way that this moisturizes like this hydrates really nice but this gives like a deep smooth moisture to my face that was shocking cuz it’s a sun y’all either way you’re good check out the video if you want more details and if you want to see what
My experience it really was like with both of these check out the comparison video just know that these are both favorites and aren’t going anywhere for my sunscreens they’re bomb next we have chemical exfoliator and retino just cuz those are special days that I use them I
Have these two right here which I have also done reviews on this this is the K orx retinol .1 it has super vitamin E and panthenol it is meant to smooth and firm the skin just giving you that youthful look to your skin and I think it do that I have really been
Incorporating the retino more into my routine I feel like my skin has just been looking better and better tighter smoother less texture less hyperpigmentation this retino has been doing me really well you just need a small amount smooth it all over your face and your skin is going to feel good
Especially in the pore area right here I feel like my skin has never looked better since I started using this retinal right here this is the karx ah7 wh head Power Liquid this is a product that will last you a long time especially because you don’t necessarily
Need to be exfol your skin too often I do it once a week so it’s lasted me for a while it’s formulated with 7% glycolic acid I used to use the ordinary Gonic acid which I still use differently on my face after a while started burning me
And drying me out whereas this somehow keeps my skin moisturized it is truly a gentle exfoliator you don’t feel it stripping the skin it doesn’t feel super dry on your skin it’s such a lightweight liquid consistency that you might even feel like you’re just putting water on
Your face it doesn’t have a smell it doesn’t have a sting and when my skin is in a good place it just adds a little more Radiance and softness to my skin now I do feel like I have been seeing a bit more blackheads and I don’t think I
Need to go directly to the blackhead version of this but they have a BHA aha version with karx that I do think I want to try next just so I have that balance um but if you’re dealing with white heads I think this is awesome quickly
Got to mention it cuz I love it this Lan sleeping mask for the lips day and night nonstop it smells good it’s smooth it actually stays I don’t know what magic it is it stays on your lips all night somehow eventually you notice that your lips are able to without product still
Look smooth not chap up as quick and just be luscious let me put some on so y’all can see on top the lip gloss cuz y y got to see what it gives you see how the pink is just right and it look like a little glowy but like baby pink M Lano
Repurchase every time this is expensive but it lasts you a very long time I wanted to add these in because I have them and I think it was important to note I’m going to call this the eye category cuz they they’re both different things but they’re both related to Under
Eye Health this is the I’m from jenang eye cream I haven’t used eye cream in years and then I Incorporated this for a little bit and it does feel really really smooth it doesn’t sting the eye at all and it has such a a just a smooth
Silkiness as well I just didn’t feel like I know it’s a big impact in my under eye area in terms of it looking like really hydrated really soft I didn’t notice or felt like it did anything different than what my normal facial moisturizers especially my thicker ones would do so this is not
Repurchase for me simply because I don’t feel like I have under eye struggles and dryness which is also why this J June green tea eye gel patch beautiful packaging look at the gold in the front and the actual product itself let me show you real quick I got a few left in
Here look at that just jelly pretty green teen love how lightweight it is the L of holds to it really well and it has like a calming I don’t keep these in the fridge I would say if you do deal with like puffy under eyes and redness
You might want to keep it in fridge cuz then it’ll have like an extra cooling effect on its own it does great though you see the way I’m talking and moving and it just stays on my eye a tip by the way especially when you first get it it
Might be a little too much extra product in the bottom let it sit out for like a minute and then apply it it won’t move I enjoy it I just realize it’s a waste because I tend to forget to use them I just I just be in my own world but again
I think I may not just I just may not be ready for eye stuff my whole eye area under eye area I don’t have the puffiness or dryness that some may be dealing with which is why they need an eye patch I do know a lot of people
Recommend using eye patches before you get to your makeup routine because it’ll make a significant difference in how your under eye makeup looks so I think it’s something cool to incorporate once in a while I just I just don’t pick it up enough but you can see that I’m at
The bottom when I first got this this felt so good to me I just kept using them and using them and using them stay at least 10 minutes away from doing anything else because then if you go too quick and move into the next step you will experience peeling and you don’t
Need that on one patch I’m just going to apply one to this other side but y’all can see look it’s staying what I’m basically trying to say is if I had a reason for eye patches this would be something I’m picking up next category is face masks I have been loving these
Face masks I’ve been gatekeeping them to be honest I have not shared about them let me know if you want an in-depth routine and instructional video on how I use them this is the isn’t tree real mug wart clay mask this is focus on seab buum care and I was dealing with texture
And it cloged pores out of nowhere it was a new experience for me when I got this and I did hear that CL that clay masks are good for seum production when you have too much going on and need some help clay mask are able to detox really
Well so I was happy to incorporate this and I’m so happy that I found it this is the only clay mask I use now because it feels like it gets in there but when I take it off super soft it doesn’t feel rough my skin doesn’t feel overly dried
Out when I’m applying I do feel the little exfoliation that it has going on but never is it to the point of damaging my skin or too rough on the skin it leaves my skin feeling really soft I genuinely enjoy using this and knowing that it’s focused on my sebum care I use
It once a week the minute I’m almost done with it I repurchase a new one it’s it’s that girl it’s clay mask next this is the first time I’ve had a product like this it sheet mask but in a container that I can pull out this is
The Maran May n cinamon vitamin C brightening mask I love it it has Super S nicomide and vitamin C it’s a daily sheet mask I don’t use them daily but you can use them as much as you want you know why cuz the packaging is fire it
Comes with tweezers you open the little compartment and here are the face masks usually you got to buy the little individual packets of face mask no you can get a whole little bulk and use them as needed and I love that it is so cool it the first time I ever had packaging
Like this that came with tweezers but the Koreans it’s not the only one I have now cuz the Koreans are really they they smart they get it easy to grab and use as needed I use it at night once or twice a week and it leaves your skin
Feeling so soothing and refreshed the access product that stays on your face is nonsticky non pilling non anything like it just feels so nice on the skin and to for to have nice cin amide where that’s helping out your acne the vitamin C that’s leaving you bright with
Brighter more radiant skin all around you get notice I have a trend ha glowy radiant nice in the mind I would definitely repurchase this just cuz I think a sheet mask is good hair in there incorporate it because it just leaves your skin you just let it sit for a
Little bit and it leaves your skin really hydrated it’s a cool way to have sheet masks at ready for you to use them at home whenever you just have a few minutes to apply one um and again this is a daily sheet mask I don’t use them
Daily but you could it hasn’t clawed my pores or given me any reason to not use it so I would absolutely repurchase this I do enjoy using it and the last thing I want to highlight uh could we just talk about how it hasn’t moved they’re still
Here sticking I’m smiling I’m joking I’m moving no issues with these eye patches the last thing I want to highlight is actually another karx product and it is the acne pimple Master Patch this is the first time I used the acne patch that I felt like actually stuck to my skin and
Brought the gunness to the top quickly and if it wasn’t ready after after two days of using it usually the pimple would be ready it’s a hydroline patch that absorbs oil and extracts impurities while creating a barrier that protects against outside air inter yes it brings
It right on up if I’m using a pimple patch this is the one that I’m grabbing I repurchase when I can and you can usually find them for like $5 compared to like I go on Sephora and I’m like $20 for some pimp to Patches like I’m not
Doing that easy to use Easy to remove non painful and it gets the job done especially when you’re when you already have a white head and you apply it to avoid the picking cuz that’s where I really try to incorporate these patches so that I stop picking at my skin and
Leading to more acne scars the poal the story is it worked and let me take this off period you see you see what I mean you see that hydration that is deer now like I wasn’t dry before so I didn’t need it but if I’m going use
It I do want something that leaves me like this please let me know you have questions about any of these products and how I use them if you don’t find the review to any of these products let me know cuz I will happily review them more
In depth for you I can’t wait to continue learning about different Korean beauty products 2023 has treated me so well two different products let me know if you have other products for me to try or video suggestions comment them down below right now because if your ideas
