to consider when it comes to choosing the products.
I personally enjoy and notice results with Sulwhasoo
as I grow older whereas others may find Laneige or
Innisfree equally effective. Therefore, it is best to
discover and explore the wide selection available and
find the best option. K-beauty products are known to
be generous with their samples so there is no harm
asking if they could provide you some for you to try
them out.
Besides purchasing in stores, you can also look
out for websites that carry a wide array of brands
such as Hermo and Althea.
SHEET MASKS
Sheet masks have become part of a lifestyle for
both men and women and it is known to be the key
aspect to improved skin quality and texture. The
concentrated serum or essence that is infused in
sheet masks helps to combat dryness, acne, pores,
dullness, to name a few depending on what it is made
for. Celebrities are known to depend on these facial
sheet masks that contribute to their glowing skin
especially amongst the Asian market. Some have
even gone to the extreme of masking 2-3 times a day
because it claims to have good results for the skin.
Additionally, prepping the canvas for make-up to stay
and cling on better. There are countless masks and
brands to choose from and they all have different
feeling and finishes. Some stores you can look out for
are SASA, Watsons, Guardian and other stores that
carry multiple K-beauty brands.
TRAVELLING ESSENTIALS
What are some travelling essentials to bring with
you? I would like to share some of my travel tips
because you never know when you need them!
SUNSCREEN – Very crucial to protect the skin from
UV rays that will bring harm to the skin in the long
run especially you spend most of the time outdoor
when travelling. Best is to apply ones with SPF 50
PA+++ for peace of mind protection. Do reapply
because sunscreen may wear out during the day
hence sunscreen spray is a good alternative with
less hassle.
MAKE-UP WIPES & WET WIPES – A convenient way to
wipe excess dirt before washing. Additionally, when
there is no water supply this will come in handy to
freshen up temporarily.
SHEET MASKS – Good way to wind down after a long
day just before sleep and waking up to well rested,
smooth and glowing skin. Do pack ones according to
the destination and environment you will be in.
TRAVELLING SIZE TOILETRIES – Less bulky and less
heavy. Makes a difference if it’s a shopping trip.
Samples from your trusted brands are a good way
to try something new and you can dispose them
whenever it is empty.
FACIAL MIST – Not only does it hydrate but also
helps cool down the skin in the heat and a perfect
way to freshen up too.
MULTI-PURPOSE BALM OR OINTMENT – To treat dry,
flaky skin, itchiness and bites. Great way to use as a
lip balm too if you forget to bring one or misplace it.
PROBIOTICS, VITAMIN C & PANADOL – Falling sick
during a trip is definitely not fun at all but having
these could help relieve some discomfort. Moreover,
it prevents you from falling sick from the lack of
sleep and over-indulging.
