The cold wind and dry air do nothing to improve our skin quality. In fact, this insidious combination sucks away the moisture we so desperately need. That’s why I’d like to share some of my absolute favorite Korean skincare brands that focus on natural organic ingredients to slow down the aging process. These fantastic finds also form a barrier for your skin and enhance the softness of your complexion for a more youthful appearance. Does it sound too good to be true? It’s not – so read on!
Best Overall: Savor Beauty was created for women, by women. They are my favorite for all skin care products because their range contains organic ingredients that deliver results. Most recently they developed a product that brightens and hydrates my skin day and night called the Pore perfecting pumpkin face cream with AHA+ and PHA. It improves elasticity (who doesn’t want that?), accelerates cell renewal and reduces fine lines. In short, it’s magic in a bottle with a rich, creamy texture that goes under your makeup and doesn’t feel greasy with high-quality ingredients without the addition of fillers.
Highest rated: Sulwhasoo has great skincare products backed by science and ginseng, their favorite ingredient in almost everything they make. I highly recommend trying their Concentrated Ginseng renewal cream, which firms the skin and leaves a smooth, silky finish. They too can be quite expensive, but several sizes have been created for entry-level trials.
Night cream: Another brand to consider is Glow Recipe, a more affordable approach to skin care and just as effective. They can bring moisture back into your skin Plum Plump refillable hyaluronic acid moisturizer. Customers have noticed that it makes their skin “light” and “plump,” giving them “extreme hydration.”
Hydration mask for the lips: Our lips need special attention in winter, and so does this Lip sleep mask Intensive hydration with vitamin C made by Laneige is just what you need to bring them back to their summer shape. It comes in different flavors, such as vanilla and gummy bear, and customers are raving about it. One customer said: “It smells wonderful and gives a very glossy finish, yet is moisturizing and smooth.”
Body cream: Don’t forget to moisturize your entire body, because your face isn’t the only one taking a hit this winter. The best way to prevent this is with The All Your Love body cream from Sioris. It has vitamins and immune-building properties to keep your skin super soft. A customer noticed that her legs “felt much softer” and were “easier to shave” because of how smooth they were.
