HADA LABO Goku-jyun Alpha Lotion

HADA LABO Goku-jyun Alpha Lotion

At first, I thought this was a toner, but on its website it calls it a lotion. Later I find out that Japanese products call a "toner" a "lotion"-strange. This is the first toner that I use after my Missha First essence treatment because this toner has hyaluronic acid which makes it so moisturizing and creamy that I feel like it would be a waste if I used it before the essence. I would definitely repurchase this.

INNISFREE Jejubija Trouble Skin 200ml

This is the summer toner that I tried after my beloved Hera Age Away during the winter time.
The first thing that hit me when i opened the package was the scent.
It smells like pine, woods and forest.
Now I know what I don't like in Korean skincare products.

This toner is perfect for acne-driven combinational sensitive skin and it contains salicylic acid for troubles and inflammatory skin.
However, I had a huge pimple on my cheeks and after two weeks of using it-it did not go away.

I thought that Innisfree only used natural ingredients until I started to smell alcohol when I applied it on my face and then I checked to see that alcohol is ingredient number 2 next to water. Very upsetting.

After using it for a week, I realize that this is just a normal toner and it's perfect for teenagers or early twenties customers.
I ended up gifting it for someone.

Oh, I miss my Hera toner.

 

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.

   

Etude House Age Defense Essential softener and Emulsion

The softener is something between a toner and an essence. 

It has a floral scent and is a bit thicker than the regular toner consistency. 

The emulsion is also floral, a bit oily for my combination skin.

Perfect combo for travel if you have normal skin with no acne or breakouts. 

It is best for the autumn time. 

However, not good enough for purchasing the full-sized for me.
