Holy Grail Korean Skincare That Transformed My Skin 💜 James Welsh
- “The texture. I love this. I will forever love this”▶ 1:16
- “You need the tiniest amount, the tiniest amount of cleanser and one tub lasts you a lifetime”▶ 1:33
- “It is like a mask cleanser. So, even if you do leave it on for a little bit longer, it's not going to dry you out”▶ 1:54
- “It's got rice water and rice powder. So, you get this very, very gentle almost like polish like exfoliation that's not scratchy or aggressive in any way”▶ 2:00
- “It's just enough to smooth texture over time”▶ 2:08
- “This is the perfect kind of very gentle exfoliation that just buffs away at that peeling skin without stripping or irritating the skin any further than what Tre can already do”▶ 2:38
- “It gives you a really nice deep clean. It foams up very very nicely, but doesn't strip the skin as well”▶ 2:48
- “I love this in summer. I love this after like a sweaty day. I love it if my skin's just a little bit oilier than usual”▶ 2:52
- “It's a really nice calming, soothing product”▶ 3:04
- “My oily areas feel controlled, but not dehydrated”▶ 3:14
- “If my pores are looking a bit congested I'll apply this to dry skin leave it for a few minutes like a mask and then massage it in like a cleanser and rinse away. Really good at smoothing things out”▶ 3:34
- “This is one of those cleansers where I sometimes skip a first cleanse because it's so good at melting sunscreen as well”▶ 3:45
- “This one is so nice. It actually feels like it's doing something because it is an ampoule”▶ 4:15
- “It's got propolis in which is brilliant for barrier support and in general glow and moisturization. It's anti-inflammatory. It's got antioxidant properties in there”▶ 4:21
- “You got hyaluronic acid, panthenol, betaine, so you're actually getting a really nice dose of hydration as well”▶ 4:28
- “The mist is also ultra fine. Ultra ultra fine”▶ 4:36
- “I like layering this up. If you like multiple layers of hydration and toners, you can layer this up without using so much product, but still getting that kind like seven skin feel of hydration”▶ 4:41
- “If my skin is looking dull midday, one spritz and it looks alive again, not greasy in any way. A really nice, healthy glow”▶ 5:16
- “It's gentle, sensitive, skin friendly, no stinging”▶ 5:22
- “I honestly don't see the need for any other mist”
- “The ease of like spraying one layer, patting that in, spraying another one if I want extra hydration. It's just so so good”▶ 5:34
numbuzin$28.00- “I ended up using this every single day, twice a day”▶ 6:18
- “It's like a very ferment serum with galactomyces and bifida ferment lysate. So very essency actually”▶ 6:21
- “Focusing on barrier support, brightening, elasticity of the skin, you know, it's a typical well-aging essence formulation”▶ 6:32
- “This one is a very slow burn, I would say. But after a few weeks, your skin just looks better, smoother, more even. Feels more resilient as well”▶ 6:56
- “Slightly thick, but very lightweight, but sinks in so nice to the skin”▶ 7:04
- “Does give you that nice well hydrated glow, but very natural”▶ 7:08
- “Number three is essentially about textured skin and elasticity. And this is the kind of serum that makes your whole routine kind of like work better”▶ 7:19
- “I have noticed I'm kind of building texture back up in my skin on purpose for something else. And it's very easy to do that when I'm not using this serum”▶ 7:32
- “I miss it”
- “If you deal with redness, breakouts, post acne marks, this is so so good”▶ 7:54
- “Azelaic acid is one of my favorite ingredients because it's anti-inflammatory, antibacterial. It helps regulate keratin production. So, it tackles congestion and redness at the same time”▶ 8:02
- “12% is strong, but still a cosmetic level. And in this formula, it's kind of buffered”▶ 8:09
- “While it's calming redness and balancing oil, it's also hydrating”▶ 8:18
- “TIRTIR had the all clear from a lot of cosmetic chemists. So it is actually doing something”▶ 8:32
- “I stopped using azelaic acid for the longest time because a lot of the formulas would peel. They'd also primarily been like a cream form. So these hydrating soothing serums are perfect for me”▶ 8:36

- “It has very much become a holy grail serum for when my skin is just going through it”▶ 8:51

- “It uses salmon PDRN alongside a hydrating essence and oil capsules in a 9:1 ratio”▶ 9:32
- “You get barrier support, moisture, and then that bouncy finish without it feeling greasy”▶ 9:44
- “This is somehow both oily and not oily at all at the same time”▶ 9:48
- “It kind of becomes like this liquid oil. Not like a dry oil, not an oily oil. It just feels so so hydrating”▶ 9:55
- “The hydration and bounce it gives your skin is so so nice”▶ 10:12
- “It gives your skin that like slightly fuller look over time, plumper, more elasticy looking”▶ 10:14
- “The texture is so nice. So so nice”▶ 10:14
- “It's great for dry skin when my skin is super sensitive”▶ 10:23
- “It has this like vibrating metal applicator at the top that they say delivers 12,000 vibrations per minute, which sounds really dramatic, but it actually is actually really, really nice”▶ 10:44
- “It does help a little bit with like lymphatic movement and product absorption I found the most. It just helps the eye cream absorb super super fast”▶ 10:55
- “Really sinks down into the skin and it just feels nice”▶ 11:04
- “It gives you a cold soothing massage as you do it”▶ 11:30
- “It really does make a difference with how quick it absorbs”▶ 11:36
- “There are no hydrolyzed sponge spicules in the ink list whatsoever. So they are kind of banking on the popularity of the um spicule range, but thank god because I don't want those anywhere near my eyes”▶ 11:45
- “This contains peptides, PDRN derivatives, ceramides, tranexamic acid, and niacinamide. So, you're getting that brightening, you're getting barrier support, hydration”▶ 11:57
- “The formula itself is genuinely pretty solid. It's very, very good”▶ 12:10
- “If you struggle with dull under eyes and like mild puffiness, I would say this is really enjoyable to use”▶ 12:14
- “I use it consistently, not just for content”
- “I cannot find the refills anywhere”▶ 12:34
- “This is good. This is a proper occlusive style balm moisturizer”▶ 2:36
- “It's kind of their version of the Cicaplast but honestly, I feel like in a much more cosmetically elegant way”▶ 13:04
- “It's got hyaluronic acid complex in it”▶ 13:08
- “Poly glutamic acid though, which is so so nicely hydrating. Muru Muru butter, ceramides. So, we're getting barrier support as well”▶ 13:15
- “It's designed to seal everything in overnight”▶ 13:26
- “It's really not that heavy as it sounds, though”▶ 13:28
- “It is perfect on my combination skin”▶ 13:40
- “If my barrier feels compromised, if I've traveled, if my skin is dry from tret, this is the final step in my evening routine”▶ 13:42
- “When my skin needs just that little bit extra attention when it comes to hydration and locking everything in and making my skin soft and supple and plump again, this goes on every single time”▶ 13:57
- “It's kind of buttery. It's not suffocating and I wake up with that really nice soft, plump, dewy skin”▶ 14:07
