💗 New Videos Every MWF! 💗 - Jak na to + styl
Never going back to non korean skincare after only 1 year of using it 🥰 So glad this channel got me to finally try shopping on those websites ☀️☀️☀️
Aww yay!! K-Beauty is SO amazing!!
I had excessively oily skin. When I realized that my skin is dehydrated, I started to use hydrators. AND BOY DID IT WORK! Less oil, clearer skin due to less pore clogging with oils. I have 3 of the 5 products in my current skincare rotation. Thanks for this video! ❤️
Ah that’s awesome to hear! Yes, the dehydration aspect can be resolved for sure ☺️
As an oily skin girl, between the Snail and my Vichy 89 hyaluronic acid, I am very happy. Have a wonderful week ❌️⭕️
this hair color looks amazing on u
Wow your hair looks so cute in this video! I love it! And, of course, love the content :)
I immediately thought of the pyunkangyul essence toner as well!! Love it.
That Skinfood, I am intrigued and going to look into royal jelly as sounds like a great product! Thx! 🤗
Love the COSRX and the Hanskin ❤️ I’d like to try the PKY. And Skinfood
I always have a back up of CosRx snail cream. Love it!!
I am really loving my Hanskin (I use my Indie Lee toner more) but do enjoy this essence when I use it! Appreciation to you for finding it!
I will never be tired of you talking about Cosrx snail Essence or the moisturizer. I do need reminding as I really want to try both eventually!
Thank you for another wonderfully video, love learning something new everyday and I always do here! ❤️
This hair is giving me everything I need today.
I love Dr. Jart's Ceramidin cream and face masks! I've also recently been enjoying using Laneige Cream Skin as a toner!
I wished I new what you were wearing on your eyes I'm this video. The eyeshadow looks is fire along with that wig! Love it❤️🔥
Just picked up the PKY that I found at tjmaxx!! Decided to purchase because of you & I can’t wait to try it!!
2 products are already on my must-try list. Good to know!
You’re always so thoughtful and thorough when developing lists like this and that’s why I watch!
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it! 🥰
I ordered the skinfood propolis one. Still waiting for it to arrive.
The COSRX 96 Snail Mucin is great for my skin if it's irritated. It's so nuatral and soothing. I can put it on a cut and it won't flare up.
You’re so pretty!
Thank you! 🥰
Wow, Pacifica is going to town! They even have a 'Shiny Hair Shampoo'. I remember buying some of their products at Target in Florida years ago!
I look forward to your reviews more than Anything Else on YT. You are so well informed!!
🥰💕
Thanks for the great information. I always look forward to your videos. I love the snail mucin. I'm finding the cosrx propolis toner and I'm from rice toner has differently helped with hydration.
Oh definitely! Those are such a nice contrast - cosrx deeply hydrates, the I’m from hydrated and moisturizes. It’s a great duo to keep around! 😍
Love all your reviews. I like that you answer the why and how products work. I've been loving the Cosrx Cica Toner. This too can be layered for hydration without getting heavy or sticky. I have dry, mature skin. I also get cystic breakouts due to PCOS and now menopause. UGH!! Hormones!! Thank you for sharing your knowledge, it is appreciated. 💖💖💖
It’s so nice to find those products that layer nicely! And yep, right there with you on the frustration of breakouts. Adapalene has been incredible for reducing the frequency, and those soothing ingredients like cica go far for soothing 😍
I need to get some of these products. However that Cosrx snail essence is where it’s at! I’ll never be without it now.
If anyone is on the fence about trying the Pyunkang yul essence toner …Do it! I did not expect to fall in love with it the way i did :p
Same!!
Yup!! It seemed like such a basic ingredients list. And yet, YUP it’s amazing!
It’s a holy grail! I’ll never be without it.
An american retailer for korean products is beauty within! Might be a good site to recommend since they have pyunkang yul along with others!
Amazing how we all have such different skin types/preferences. I've seen reviews of the Isntree product that were absolutely glowing and some that weren't impressed at all (and those were folks who actually like HA).
Haha YES, it’s so true!
Such Great video, exactly the information I’ve been looking for, I’m wanting to find similar products or alternatives to the Hanskin, curious to see if I’ll love something else as much.
The hanskin HA essence hooked me good, its no fuss and works really well with other products, without being sticky or taking forever to absorb. I also use it on my arms before lotion after I get out of the shower, which I can’t do with most HA products.
I’ve used the cosrx in the jar, it’s slippy and gloopy and just lovely …especially in the winter.
It’s such a surprisingly effective essence! I’ll have to try it on my body. I ended up finishing off my tonymoly ceramide toner in the same way- it’s SO nice to have an in between body step for after the shower but before body lotion!
This is helpful! For awhile I've been eyeing that Skinfood propolis essence but wasn't sure about it. There's another one that's mr bee and miss flower or something? Lol I am curious about that one too. My skin seems to do best when I stick with a couple actives and do light layers of hydration with essence and serums. Astragalus is such an interesting ingredient! A long time ago I was researching the healing properties of different plant medicines and astragalus was one that really stood out to me. 🌿
Yes, by Banila! I couldn’t handle the smell of that one sadly - it had that artificial honey smell that my nose does not love 😳
Great video - Thanks. I think I have entered the situation where I need to look at more good combination products. I seem to have collected a lot of individual products ... and a lot of bottles! Maybe the Skinfood procuct will help me with that.
That Skinfood essence is really something special! I think it’s one of the OGs too - i remember first buying it years back, and I’m so happy to see it’s just as good now as it was then!
Great Video
I absolutely love the Skinfood Propolis Essence. I also enjoy the Cosrx Snail 96 Essence. And I have found I really appreciate iUNIK Beta-Glucan serum followed by a mist. I have mature, dry normal skin and rosacea and I love Korean toners and essences. I don’t necessarily follow the seven step method, but I often layer products based on how my skin feels. Thank you for sharing so much more than products, you talk about the science behind ingredients and I find that fascinating.
I really think that’s the way to do it: follow your skin’s needs vs force a set number of layers. I will admit that I had to learn WHAT properly hydrated skin should feel like, but now that I know, that’s what I aim for. No point in too much not too little!
Which do you like better and why?
Snail is amazing. You introduced me to it and I appreciate you ⭕️❌️
Yayyy!!! So glad you’re enjoying it! 🐌😁
Idk if I told u but the Elmt brand has toners differt kind I was looking at the illuminated version and green tea skull cap and it has no HA in it super intrigued by them I think their is 4 all together I know I told no BS Beauty but not sure if I told u but it's on my list to try along with a ton of other things..lol I love K beauty , my Sephora status is lacking this year since k beauty ..lol
I will use the cosrx snail mucin as long as they make it. It’s done so much for my dehydrated skin ❤️
Indeed! 😍🐌
Same here…🙈
Hallo, I have a several favorites I am using right now. Two I realized are not K-beauty. I really like secret key, indie Lee lotion tonique coq-10 and Tula signature glow refreshing & brightening face mist. Love seeing your picks 😍 . Thank you for product recommendations 🌻🦋
The coq10 toner is soooo nice, one of my absolute favs! I have it compartmentalized in my head as an antioxidant mist, but it does hydrate as well for sure!
@@AliceintheRabbitHole it really is. Thank you ❤️. I have some more products to try now. 🙂
Omg I didn't know you studied nutritional science. I also went to school for Nutrition. Thanks for the awesome video.
Oh wow, what aspect? I did nutritional sciences, although I admit I often consider going back and getting a dietetics certification in addition. I don’t really want to be a dietician, but phew-did not know how darn unstable it would be to work the research angle 😳 there’s never enough funding for my field!!
I find its hard for me to gauge hydration perhaps because my skin isn't truly dehydrated. Most of the products you mentioned don't give me the feeling of hydration except Cosrx and Skinfood. I suppose my skin feels softer, and plumper (which I associate with hydration) when I use a product like I'm From Rice Toner vs. the straight up hyaluronic acids essences that rarely do much for me. First essences make my skin feel wet, and the PKY is ok but doesn't feel as though it absorbs as well (kind of like being super thirsty and drinking a glass of water that doesn't satisfy the thirst the same way as something with electrolytes). I always notice a tangible difference in skin health/hydration if I don't use a hydrating toner so I know it adds value, but its mostly doing background work and doesn't feel immediately satisfying vs. skin barrier products and even hydrating leave on masks. I guess I feel I need something with a bit more body that touches on moisture as well to feel the results of the hydration.
My favorite hydrating toners so far though have been the Keel Cool Bamboo toner (though that brand annoyed me with CS and I no longer buy them), HaruHaru toner, and the make p:rem - Safe Me. Relief Essence Toner.
Alice! Hi! Loved this video! Cosrx snail essence used to be my HG but since the watered down reformulation I’ve decided to sadly move on ☹ but I love the Pyunkang yul toner essence! It just takes forever to finish a bottle. I bought the 6.8oz last year for $12 next time will buy the 3.4 😂 and I have no idea when this stuff actually expires because I don’t keep boxes. The hanskin essence look nice but due to my algae problem cannot buy Seems like that’s a common thread in their ingredient list which is a bummer.
Yes it’s so true: the PY lasts forEVER!! (And it’s so inexpensive too!)
On the cosrx: I’ve heard - and have nooo way to confirm this so take it with a grain of salt - but I’ve heard there was a period of time where it was thinner, and now it’s thicker again? Sounds wild, but I’m VERY much hoping it’s true that it’s back to it’s old thick goopy wonderfulness! Or my heart will be broken too 😢💔
@@AliceintheRabbitHole grain of salt taken! I really hope this is true 🤞I’ll dm you on Insta to let you know what I’m currently replacing it with because I don’t want it to gain popularity and sell out 😂
LOLLL yes we must keep it away from TikTok. I’ve seen what they did to cerave/cosrx 👀🤣
Morning love your videos I have all these products lol great k beauty skincare. The first skincare on your video I had brought on Amazon lol pukyel I think I’m spelling wrong . Have a great day be safe ❤️
I love them! I did struggle greatly early on with pronouncing their name though haha - tbh I probably still put an accent on it 🤣
Have a great day as well! 🥰
@@AliceintheRabbitHole thank you . You ever tried Jin jumg sung it’s a smoothing moisturizer skin essence. Lol I had to look at the bottle for the correct spelling. Omg got it on Amazon sale love it. Really hydrates the skin . Does say made in Korean . The consistency is thick drinks it in your skin. Maybe you can do of video review on this product . Can’t read the ingredients list it’s in Korean. I don’t smell fragrance. Lol I have so much essence I can bath in it . They all great k beauty is the best . Thank you so much Alice your a wonderful person. Thank you again taking the time to review skincare for our beautiful ladies and men at there . Be safe ❤️🥰
I enjoyed watching this video. You’re very thorough, thank you! I have oily skin, and I’m struggling right now with dehydrated flaky and peeling skin (culprit: tretinoin 😭) Is it possible to use these products together? I was thinking of layering the hanskin essense with the skinfood propolis serum, then maybe apply a moisturizer on top if needed
I would say yes for sure! But I would add to definitely include the moisturizer to seal those products in
I couldn’t believe how much more drying a retinoid was for me as well, and at my most dry here’s the order I like in my routine: cleanser, hydrating toner, hydrating essence or serum, moisturizer, hefty occlusive. you could even use aquaphor/Vaseline as the last step to really lock in the humectants!
Ive used the skinfood essence for almost 7 years. Ive also tried other products with propolis which were far less hydrating than the skinfood one. I genuinely hope skinfood never discontinues it lol
Agreed!! It’s a product that has really proven it’s worth over the years!
Hi Alice,👍👍
Hahaha I still have another bottle of snail essence stashed away too. 😅 I love it. I started using the pyunkang yul essence on vacation--I had a mini--and I loved it. I didn't travel with the snail and the world did not end--by which I mean that my face didn't get all flaky and irritated.
Oh that is so good to hear - travel seems to ALWAYS wreak havoc on my face!!
Tbh - if you’re ever thinking of a reel/post to make - I’d love to see a travel routine, especially since it went well for ya!
@@AliceintheRabbitHole I should! I used up a lot of those minis but I could sub something in. It was a bit lucky though, as it was maybe not the smartest to bring almost all new products. 🤣🤣🤣
Alice, have you ever heard of Farmhouse Fresh beauty?? They are a skincare company that is also a sanctuary for abused/sick farm animals. I just began using a couple of their face masks and love them so far! I definitely encourage you to look into the brand
😱 I haven’t but that sounds like such a lovely company! Thanks for the heads up, I’ll look into them for sure!
Thank you for the heads-up on this brand! I am now lusting after their cleansing balm.
@@AislinSidhe no problem!! You've got to try their Guac Star Avocado mask and their pumpkin dirt mask. Absolutely chef's 💋! And every product you purchase, you can scan the batch number on the bottom of each product and it will tell you about all of the positive things going on at the sanctuary during the time your product was made! How cool is that?
@@sharonharris9782 , I LOVE that! How utterly cool!
@@AislinSidhe oh, I forgot to mention that their hand creams are the absolute BEST I've ever used! Not perfumey, but really fresh clean scents. Their cinnamon sugar and sweet cream lotion is amazing and not greasy at all. I just had to give it a plug here!
I thought the skinfood product would have added fragrance but I'm glad it doesnt!doesn't!! I think I'll check it out 👀
So funny you say that!! I thought that as well, as it does naturally smell somewhat sweet. But no - no added fragrance!
Hi. Had issues yesterday! I am back ❌️⭕️
Jin Jung Sung essence ,Pyungkang essence, vegreen yam mucin
I want to try the Vegreen! It sounds soooo nice 😍
Right now I’m using Be Plain’s Bamboo Hydrating Ampoule. Definitely does the job. Other favorites are iUnik Beta Glucan Serum and Vegreen’s Yam Mucin.
Also a big fan of Pyunkang Yul’s Essence Toner. ❤️
That Vegreen is high on my to-try list! It sounds so lovely 😍
💖💖
If you have to develop a skincare routine for someone with your exact skin type, what products would you tell them to get? Im overwhelmed by all the choices but it sounds like i have your exact skin type with a compromised skin barrier. Thanks for any help you can give me.
Ooh tough question. But I’d say to start simply as that is key - you can build and adjust from there!
So: AM: focus on vitamin c and sunscreen. My top rec for fellow acne prone skin is the bubble daydream serum for vitamin C, and I personally prefer K-Beauty sunscreens!
PM: focus on cleansing, calming and alternate evenings with a retinoid. My top picks: cerave acne foaming cream cleanser, alternate that cleanser with La roche posay adapalene gel.
Everything else should be calming-focused. Calming moisturizer, calming cleanser. Beauty of Joseon is a great brand for affordable calming products to round out a routine.
Hope that helps!

What have you found is the difference between the skinfood and cosrx propolis in terms of skin benefits apart from hydration?
Great question! For me, the Skinfood does a bit more in terms of repair - because I often have a lot to repair given my acne issues. Granted, on someone with less irritation/acne, the Skinfood might merely add more hydration.
Let it be known that I’m now officially “combo-to-dry” instead of “oily” skinned 😫. My mouth and eye areas get quite dehydrated so I’m here for all of your recs.
The other day I used too much of the BareMinerals veil powder to tone down my sunscreen shine and my entire face felt like sandpaper all day. Ugh. Is that what dry skin people experience?!
YES. And also like the sandpaper is somehow sucking inwardly? Oh and it can itch on top of that!
I am truly jealous of oily skin types lol
My favourite hydrators are NIOX hydration vaccine, pacifica water bounce and sadly, keep cools and soothe toner. I refuse to buy keep cool anymore but that toner remains undefeated in hydration!
Good for you tho, keep cool really messed up. We need to hold these companies accountable
whoa, Pacifica coming through as a fav!? That’s exciting! I’ll have to add that to my next Ulta order haha!
Cosrx snail use to be my top fav now I think the top goes to the Dr C kombucha essence I'm in love with, I do love the cosrx propolis toner and their centella one too idk I have a essence an toner obsession. Did u see the new redition of the primers lotus essence I saw it on yesstlye yesterday and they had the new ingredient next to the old ingredient list, wonder how good it is. Do I need the skinfood propolis honey essence it's been on my list for awhile now. Have u tried the PSA pancera serum it's really nice and hydrating I really am liking it I also got the Benton green tea toner and started using it and I'm really liking that too so far I have not used it long enough to tell my full thought but I am liking it and it's cheap I think I paid 11$ for it and it's different then the issi tree green tea toner feel texture all I think it's more for a dry ance prone skin type . Have u done a Benton trial yet ? I can't remember but theirs a few things I want to try out. How is the bubble serum going any updates I need to purchase that Walmart right ? I wish I looked when I was their 2 days ago I ment to look for that and the new elf halo glow CT dupe and some tea lights and oil forgot them all my phone broke so I needed a new one asap so went their and everything I wanted to look for went out of my brain. Have u heard of the ENS essence and serum I really want that I have been eyeing it for a year heard amazing things and they redid the serum funny part is it looks like the essence like a bottle just a different off white color .have u tried the new BOJ retinal grinding on ur face yet not just under ur eyes ? Wondering how good it would be like that sense it's a good price.
Added I really like the PC omgea serum as a last serum to seal in the hydrating steps I know it's more moisturizing but I have had good results with that and also the Pacific Vega cerimide line as a look in to the hydrating steps . I wish HA would fly the coop I am really over it their is so much more that could be used catus beta glucan milk root like so many others then HA , I remember hunting specific HA serums now it's in everything kinda like niacinamide like u don't need to hunt for sperate serums for that cause 98% of the time I bet it's in the product already, I rember loving the la Roche posay thermal spring water ha serum the and others that were 2 times the amount now I want good ingredient added to the HA if I have to have it. I just finished like almost 3 months on my sk11 and I can't believe the results I can't even believe I'm hooked I need to catch it on sale I used it night and day and the mini bottle last a good time I still have one I cracked open today. Dr c sk11 rnw cerimide serum dear klair oil drop serum PC omgea serum PSA pancera serum ordinary argeline purito unscented are like in my tops right now I do like the manyo bifida mist alot I think it's worth a try and it looks nice under makeup too, I have a list of other some actives I try to lay off so many actives and build and repair health and stretch but with a few added bha sometimes lactic madellic or something I am intrigued with LHA and I wish I could use L asboric it sucks it's so hard for me but ever since the great damage of kora skincare my skin hasn't been the same .
😱😱😱😱😱😱 OMGGGG
ok I’m on the YesStyle website, but I don’t see the ingredients list comparison? OMG I hope they listened to feedback and made it…just back into the old product? The classic that we miss so much 😢
Ah gosh honestly the Skinfood is really good. In terms of comparisons…imagine taking the cosrx propolis toner and the farmacy honey halo, smooshing those two into one product, and making it a fast absorbing and elegant essence/serum.
I haven’t tried too much from Benton, and I do feel I need to explore more of their products!
Reading your favs made me think of how fun it would be to do a: “trying subscriber favorites” first impression. Ahhh that would be so fun. For your product, it’s gonna be the RNW 🤣 (I literally swear I will try it!!!)
@@AliceintheRabbitHole LOL yes so fun, lol e me some rnw lol. I just got the bumble serum in the yellow box when I went to Walmart tonight and a neutagena sensitive serum light foundation heard it was really nice comfy if u like lighter coverage Rudy Berry rec that the newer elf brighter concealer she said it was a YSL touche eclat concealer dupe only they didn't have it or the new Halo glow filter I was looking for they said they had but didn't . It was so weird Walmart had products on like nothing their . Their was a few things I was looking for I didn't find. Their stock sucked I got into a fight with a rude worker it was a day let me tell u. I couldn't even find tea light candles the most random thing u could always find everywhere for cheap not one it's so annoying to go somewhere and not find what ur looking for. I think I'm gonna go to Ulta and target tommrow maybe Sephora it's all across the street in 2 plazas Kohl's / Sephora Ross then Ulta target and marshals across the street. I need some retail therapy the stress is over the top lately . I can't wait to try this new bubble serum they had alot of product from them versed and a few other fortifie but I didn't know what else to get but I was very intrigued by the bubble serum if it's good and the ingredient list looks amazing I can't believe it's from Walmart.
I haven't tried anything from Benton but I'm pleased so far with the green tea serum and some of their things seem to be cult classics and alot of people's interdiction to K beauty but it wasn't mine. I think purito unscented centella Dr c kombucha essence rnw cerimide plus and rnw micellar cleansing water can make mermaid SPF and a few others I tried first o cosrx of course that was the very first the snail essence.
@@AliceintheRabbitHole check styvanna I know it was one of those 2 they had the new lotus and the ingredient comparison under the products of the new and old.
I absolutely LOVED this video🤍thank you Alice! I’m looking forward to trying all but the cosrx snail mucin which is a tried and true one🥰
It really is SUCH a tried and true! 🥰
Realizing that my skin type is oily and dehydrated was a game changer!
And how many years did I waste trying to control my oily face with drying products?!? Augh!
I believe it!! It’s a very different perspective from what I grew up with, but I’m so glad we are making leaps and bounds in understanding skin!
I did the same thing for literally 20 years! Hydrating my face instead of drying it has actually cleared up the acne I had. I think because I was drying my face out, it caused my skin to overproduce oils to try to combat the dryness. At least I figured it out at 31 lol 😂
Do you avoid your eyes with your face products?
It really depends on the product tbh
This video not sponsored by CosRX Snail Mucin (but it should be)… @cosrx where ya at?
🥰🐌
Hi..❌️⭕️
🥰🥰
Can you recommend a very moisturizing and hydrating moisturizer? Thanks... ugh my skin is so freaking dry!!!😢
Tbh I genuinely think I get the best results from a hydrating toner or essence in conjunction with a moisturizer (and sometimes the combo can be less expensive than an all-in-one cream). But I will say there are some combos that are quite well done. I’ll actually throw it back to an old favorite in the farmacy honey halo!
