A very common silicone that gives both skin and hair a silky smooth feel. It also forms a protective barrier on the skin and fills in fine lines. Also used for scar treatment. Feel like a mermaid as you splash it on like a facial lotion. You can even use it under your make-up as a base. Because of its moisturizing capabilities, it can help your foundation sit better and even last longer. Little bursting beads – They give the illusion of being concentrated, having active ingredients (and in a few products they are actually used to keep ingredients stable), but I’m always worried that they won’t mash up properly and I’ll be walking around with dots on my face

Also has niacinamide and adenosine, a combo that a lot of Korean skincare products have in them that allows them to be marketed as anti-aging functional cosmetics I think it might be popular because it was one of the few salicylic acid products from an Asian brand for a really long time – chemical exfoliants like AHAs and BHA aren’t popular in Asian skincareThe Canmake Mermaid Skin Gel feels like water on your skin. It breaks down into a thin, watery texture as you smooth it over your skin, so it gets easily absorbed. It is the only skincare and UV protection you need to keep your face looking its best. It can also be used on the body to provide it with moisture and UV-protection that lasts all day. Lots of interesting ingredients, focus on pigment-targeting, brightening ingredients – sake extract which contains kojic acid (made by a sake company), arbutin, glycyrrhizate, also hydration ingredients e.g. ceramides and glycerin

De cand am descoperit-o nu prea mai vreau sa incerc alta crema cu spf. Este atat de lejera, nu lasa fata uleioasa si nu ma face sa transpir mai tare pe caldura ( da, am patit asta fix cu produse care se laudau ca matifiaza si retin umezeala, de la alta firma mult mai cunoscuta). A fost ok chiar si la reaplicare peste machiaj ( corector/fdt+pudra). Love it!

I thought this would be interesting because the list is very different in vibe. AsianBeauty is also very text-based, so there’s still a big focus on what works (no one likes to buy products that don’t work). Has niacinamide, which is a trendy ingredient that started off getting popular in Asian skincare products Spread the cream evenly on your face at least 30 minutes before heading out. Use SPF everyday even if you are indoors or during winter seasons

Yadah is the most affordable option at just P8.50 per ml but it has a lower level of protection at just SPF35 PA++. It’s enough for daily use that involves minimal sun exposure, though! Just make sure to apply it well to avoid getting a white cast. Pseudoscientific marketing concepts like “clean”, the EWG, “natural” are increasingly popular in Korean beauty unfortunately – there’s this assumption that Korean skincare is really innovative and science-based but just like everywhere else, people fall for cognitive biases This is also the reason why sunscreens have a colour because this is also a colourant in cosmetics. Zinc oxide Though its name says acid, it's not really an exfoliant. It's a plant extract with some antioxidant properties. Its main thing in cosmetic products is to neutralize the metal ions in the formula (that usually get into there from water) that would otherwise cause some not so nice changes.Biore UV Aqua Rich Watery Essence - Ethylhexyl Triazone, Diethylamino Hydroxybenzoyl Hexyl Benzoate, Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate, Bis-Ethylhexyloxyphenol Methoxyphenyl Triazine

This is a really cool and unique product, fantastic for people who don’t use vitamin C that much and need something that will last a decade (yes I’m planning to keep this tube for a decade, ask me in 2031 what it looks like) I personally didn’t see much difference when I used this – probably because I use so much PC 2% BHA Liquid Water,, ethylhexyl methoxycinnamate,, butylene glycol,, diethylamino hydroxybenzoyl hexyl benzoate,, zinc oxide,, methylheptyl laurate,, titanium dioxide,, dimethicone,, bis-ethylhexyloxyphenol methoxyphenyl triazine,, polymethylsilsesquioxane,, cyclopentasiloxane,, sodium hydroxyethyl acrylate/acryloyldimethyl taurate copolymer,, diisostearyl malate,, aluminum hydroxide,, PEG-60 hydrogenated castor oil,, stearic acid,, phenoxyethanol,, ratzillacosme.com do.not.copy,, polyglyceryl-3 polydimethylsiloxyethyl dimethicone,, polyhydroxystearic acid,, jojoba esters,, xanthan gum,, arginine,, sodium hyaluronate,, alpha-glucan,, phytic acid,, saxifraga sarmentosa extract,, glucosyl ceramide,, prunus yedoensis leaf extract,, coix lacryma-jobi (job’s tears) seed extract,, morus alba root extract,, oenothera biennis seed extract,, silver oxide,, spiraea ulmaria flower extract,, vaccinium myrtillus leaf extract,, cynara scolymus (artichoke) leaf extract. 2019 FORMULATIONIn the swatch photo, you can also see how the Biore sunscreen doesn’t look as wet as Canmake’s even though they are both watery gel formulas. That’s because the alcohol content makes it dry super fast! Really inexpensive product, but not a one-step toner, not that hydrating, based on plant extracts, could be a nice hydrating toner in summer
