UPSIZE PH | 3 K-beauty products we want to try

Korean beauty is not easy to navigate because there are tons of amazing products with groundbreaking ingredients and technologies behind them.

Here are three of the ones we've been wanting to try. We've been inspired by YouTube skincare videos and posts of people we follow on Instagram.

1. Neogen Vita Duo Cream Joan Day Joan Night

Neogen teamed up with beauty influencer and vlogger Joan Day to create a day and night cream duo in one jar. If we could travel right now, imagine the convenience. The day cream contains ingredients like green tea and vitamin C, while the night cream focuses more on soothing and repairing with vitamin E and lavender.

There have been issues about lavender as skincare experts say it can be irritating but the idea that your day and night creams are in one jar outweighs that thought, to be honest.

2. Sulwhasoo First Care Activating Serum

One bottle of this anti-aging serum, which is supposed to be the first step after cleansing, is sold every 10 seconds.

The watery serum contains Jaum Activator, a complex of five star ingredients--Solomon’s Seal, Lotus, Rehmannia, Peony and White Lily-- that provides antioxidant protection.

The serum claims to have brightening and smoothening effects. It also claims to help reduce dry rough spots and the appearance of fine lines.

3. Troiareuke Acsen Recovery Cream

The Troiareuke Acsen Recovery Cream contains highly-concentrated centella asiatica extract, a highly raved Korean beauty ingredient. It helps sensitive and acne-prone skin with cell regeneration. The cream also soothes, protects and calms skin.

Another brand claim is that this cream has used the highest percentage of centella asiatica compared to any other product available in the market.
