I went from an easy, hurried, low-maintenance facial cleaning ritual to trying out the Asian 10 step skincare routine. Being raised in New York City has damaged and polluted my skin; I'm now repairing and focusing on anti-aging.
I want to buy and use products from a broad number of brands, I didn't just want to stick with one brand, I shopped around and compared all. I will try to write reviews each month, one which will be a list my skincare routine products, sharing my experiences on each product.

sulwhasoo Concentrated Ginseng Renewing Cream

 I miss the smell of suwhasoo ginseng. The packaging was sealed with a gold foil. I love using this cream because it reminds me of the old packaging of the ginseng scent. It's absorb quick and keeps my skin hydrated during the wintertime. There are no dupes out for this moisturizer since I've first used this about 10 years ago.

Korres Quercetin & Oak Antiaging & Antiwrinkle Night Cream

Korres Quercetin & Oak Antiaging & Antiwrinkle Night Cream

There is "pine" woody scent to the cream.
It is a thick cream best for dry nights or dry skin.

I wouldn't repurchase it though.

So the main ingredient is Quercetin and it claims that it's natural and it's an alternative to retional. It's an antioxidant that claims to help with anti-aging. This was the main reason that I brought it-ANTI-AGING haha.

Hanyul skincare mini reviews

 
Hanyul Rich Effect Gift 5 items - My mother seem to love this kit. The purple line is the anti-wrinkle line from the brand.
 
Hanyul Anti-Aging Duo (2Items) - serum and cream
The cream has a very light medicinal floral scent which I love. It's very light weight however I will not re-purchase this line.



Rice Essential Skin Softener - very silky and smooth feeling as a toner for my skin.
Rice Essential Skin Emulsion - my favorite emulsion during the winter, but might be a bit oily for combination skin during the summer!
Geuk Jin Emulsion - used this one beofre the rice one, thought it was ok. Rice is better.
Optimizing Serum
Shin-ri Tae Anti-Aging Cream - light cream almost like an emulsion. firms well.
Baek Hwa Go Wrinkle Filter Cream - this is best for dry and older skin. Very creamy.
Jak Hwa Goh Intensive Care Cream - firms really well. my favorite cream and my mom took it from me haha.
Baek Hwa Goh Silky Skin Essence - Very light, good for combination skin. Very strong medicinal scent.
Baek Hwa Goh Intensive Care Eye Cream - Very light and moisturizing eye cream. Very good for sensitive skin. Weill re-purchase this in the future.

HERA Age Away Intensive Emulsion 120ml and HERA Age Away Intensive Water 150ml

The Hera Age Away line is more for people in their 30s, but I just wanted to try it out during this wintertime. The  Intensive Water aka toner is hard to get out of the bottle without shaking the bottle hard. It absorbs through the skin fast. I don't have much to say about this product besides using it as a third cleansing product.
 
However, I'm in love with the emulsion. But I use it once every other day because it has a thicker texture than most emulsion.
It has the perfect texture for an combination skin type person during the winter time. If you have dry skin, you will love this all season. This also helps with fine wrinkles and I do see that my skin is well moisturized after each usage.

The Saem CHAGA Anti-aging Serum 25ml

The Saem CHAGA Anti-aging Serum 25ml


    


It comes in a pump which is very hygienic. It has a light floral scent which I prefer over the generic cosmetic smell. The texture is the same as the root ampoule harukeke essence. I do like this product being it has some anti-aging effects and I do like that it is packaged in 25ml to help customers determine if they want to repurchased it or not. One or two pumps is enough for your whole face and neck. You know how some products are 120ml and it you don't like it after one or two uses, you regret your purchase and don't know what to do about it. Anyway, this product is light and when I used it on my face, I feel this brand uses natural ingredients suh as the extract of the Siberian tundra's Chaga mushroom and the packaging looks very Eco-friendly.
