I remember the first Korean skincare product I bought was a year ago that too paying the full price including the customs.

Hey everyone I hope you are doing well amidst the pandemic.

My Korean skincare journey or rather the k - Beauty journey started when I was dealing with a lot of skin concerns and breakouts. One of my YouTuber friend recommended me to try korean skincare back then, I was sceptical in buying those because firstly it was not available in india and secondly it was burning my pocket to get those stuffs imported because on shipping duties and customs.

Now a days many third parties has started selling korean Beauty skincare but once again the prices are much hyped up.

Recently nykaa launched few of the korean skincare particularly the brand COSRX . Macaron beauty, limese, peaches and cream and many more instagram pages has started selling korean skincare products.

So today I would be telling you people what I have used and why I am recommending you all to check them.

The first stuff that I had tried is the COSRX centella alcohol free toner. It costed me around 1100 INR, comes in a 150ml spray bottle,purchased from Macaron beauty. It helped me to maintain the pH level of my skin which is 5.5 . The tap water in my locality is alkaline which is around 7 to 8. Over that it has the goodness of centella asiatica which is considered to be as a soothing Ingredient for our skin.

The second stuff was again from COSRX and it was their advance snail mucin. It has 94% of pure snail mucin which helps in calming and hydrating the skin. It comes in a 100ml bottle priced at 1450 INR.

Next is the COSRX 7% whitehead liquid and BHA liquid. Both comes in a 100ml pump packaging. Purchased from nykaa. Both are chemical exfoliants priced at 1250 and 1550 INR respectively. The former one is a AHA specially curated for dry skin and the later one is BHA. All skin Types can use those.

Up next comes the klaris midnight blue calming cream and it is such a blessing for skin. It contains centella asiatica which helps to get rid of irritation, rashes, sun burns etc from our face. Whenever my skin feels irritated I apply it in my entire face. It comes in 30 and 60 ml quantity priced at 1650 and 2100 respectively, purchased from nykaa. 

The next one is again from klaris and it's their supple unscented toner. Priced at 1450. You get 180ml quantity, which is going to last you for a long period of time say for atleast 3 month because you need little. Just take few drops in your hand after cleansing your face and dab it in your entire face. It's texture is not watery its kind of thick which helps to keep the skin soft and supple for the entire day. This helped me a lot with my dehydrated skin.

The above mentioned stuffs are fragrance free and essential oil free. They don't have any nasties in their skincare products. And moreover they are formulated well. And if you compare the price it's quite okay to be honest because in india brands are selling 30ml serum for 600 INR approximately but in case of korean skincare products you are getting 100ml for 1300 approx. Although the former one is made in india and we are not paying any shipping duties. Moreover the latter one's formulation is to die for. I have seen drastic changes in my skin.

That's all for today. Coming up with part 2 soon.

XOXO.
