    • This actually won the best cleanser last year, too. So this is two years going strong, and I love it2:24
    • A little will go a long way cuz I'd say maybe like half a pump will be enough to give you a really luxurious cleanse2:48
    • It contains glutathione that's really going to jumpstart turbocharge your hyperpigmentation routine as glutathione is one of the best pigment correctors2:59
    • This isn't that expensive. It's super affordable. It feels luxurious and it smells like you're at the best Korean spa ever3:16

    • I love this, but I am only buying one when those sales come around because a tube like this will last me a full 12 months3:45
    • You need the tiniest amount because it gives the most rich, luxurious foam3:54
    • It feels beautiful, but it doesn't strip and it doesn't dry3:59

    • It was my favorite last year. It's my favorite again this year. And it's beautiful5:35
    • I think it's just cuz you get so much product. I mean, this cost me £12. And look how much one of these will last you 6 months5:40
    • It's a really inexpensive eye cream. Great if you're on a budget, but it's also packed full of all the great that you expect5:45

  4. madaboutskin mentioning Secret Key Galactomyces Starting Treatment Essence at 07:18 in their YouTube video
    • This is the perfect dupe for the SK2 essence which is like £120. This £14 huge price differential and it's basically the same formula7:08
    • That galactomy is going to help fade hyperpigmentation, but because it's fermented, it's going to really boost hydration7:18

    • I love this

    • This is a snail mucin and a peptide serum all in one. Beautiful8:48
    • It's lightweight. It's not sticky. It doesn't leave like a film on the skin, but it does give you a really nice glow up8:57
    • A lot of plumpness and it's got those peptides in too. It's just a really really nice product9:01
    • I think the days of people reaching for that KX the viral Kurx one that was just like a hot sticky mess are over. I think some people just do it better9:07
    • This is great
    • It goes on. It almost goes looks like a bit jelly like, but you work this into the skin and it's gone. That's disappeared. Like there's no tackiness. There's no stickiness9:54
    • It's the one snail mucin serum that I will actually use10:11
  6. madaboutskin mentioning Vegreen Nature Mucin Toner at 09:39 in their YouTube video

    Torriden$28.00
    • I have tried many, a firming and a lifting moisturizer. None of them have worked12:52
    • I started using this one, which is so cheap. It's like I think when I last bought it, which is a while ago because it's been out of stock, I think it was like 15 pounds, maybe even less than that. Anyway, so cheap. It works12:58
    • One of the few products that actually firms, actually lifts, and actually hydrates13:11
    • It's one of those like run, don't walk13:16
    • If you see this in stock, buy it because it is always selling out like that because it is so popular13:19
    • It's amazing
  9. madaboutskin mentioning Beauty of Joseon Ground Rice and Honey Glow Mask at 14:53 in their YouTube video
    • This is a beautiful, beautiful mask14:39
    • It's got honey. It's got rice
    • It smells really nice, too. It's kind of got that honey. It smells great14:53
    • This is great if you've got acne, if you've got breakouts cuz honey is antimicrobial. Rice contains enzymes which will help gently lift any hyperpigmentation14:56
    • It's so gentle. If you left it on for an hour, it's not going to do any harm15:09

    • This does it all. It's affordable. New generation filters. Impossibly lightweight on the skin. It's water resistant for 80 minutes15:44
    • This is a triumph15:44
    • If you want a water resistant sunscreen, you want one that's lightweight and not thick and gloopy, this is the only one that I would go for15:54
    • You put that on, it sinks into the skin, it feels absolutely beautiful, and it disappears without a trace16:01
    • It doesn't even matter if you don't need that water resistance. It's just beautiful16:19
    • It has got a very light fragrance to it. So, that's the only thing I'm going to call out. If you want entirely fragrance-free, that product isn't going to be for you16:24
    • This is an absolute superstar sunscreen16:32
    • If you need water resistance, just get this. You will love it. Your skin will love it. And it's just so so nice16:47
