It depends. For treatment like retinol, retinal products, Vit C, I think Western products are ahead of K beauty. But for calming skin, gentle products, K beauty is better.
@@blee8607 They're starting to have a few great retinal products now. I'm using beauty of joseon retinal cream and it is better than some of the other western retinol/retinal products. It's great for sensitive skin. Retinoid products usually make my skin feel like it's burning in my eye area but this doesn't. It's also cheaper than a lot of western retinal products. I think Scinic also has a 0.5% retinal product with cica (it's not an eye cream though). I'm going to try it out in my next k beauty run to see if the cica combo helps reduce irritation and see if I can use it in my eye area. I know medik8 has some award winning eye and general retinal line of products but it's so damn expensive at over $100, so I'd be happy if Scinic products work for me. I think K Beauty is definitely falling behind when it comes to antioxidant serums. That's why I'll continue to use western products like paula's choice antioxidant serum.
Favourite ingredients in K-beauty definitely are root extracts like Coptis Japonica and Licorice + fermented ingredients like Kombucha, Green Tea and Black Tea! 💖🍵 (Sidenote: iUnik has been the only brand whose propolis products don't break me out, I've tried Skinfood's essence and BOJ serum and I got inflamed pimples both times. So glad I tried iUnik to know that I can still use propolis, it only depends...)
I used to have an entire routine of k-beauty products only and my skin never looked better. Then I started using "western favorite" ingredients like Vitamin C, Retinol and Peptides serums because I had this fear of missing out and a lot of western influencers describe these ingredients as must haves if you wish to combat signs of aging. Since I switched to western products my skin became red, I am often breaking out and irritation occurs occasionally even when I am using low % Vit C and gentle retinal serum. I find myself stuck between my love for K-beauty and the fear of missing out if I am not using the potent ingredients like Vit C. 😔😭
Fomo can be intense but it often means we are ignoring our own skin needs and knowledge. I used to follow a lot of fomo too and ended up with a confused routine with products I didn't love. Now I ignore the fomo or dig deeper into WHY I feel the fomo in the first place. That helps me stay on track for my skin and needs. Also reminding myself I have only one face and plenty of time to try all the things down the road! ☺️
Those ingredients are also in some K-beauty products, so if I were you I'd buy the Asian version that has those ingredients and you won't be missing out on anything
Oh, I forgot. Also wanted to let you know k beauty products like propolis have strong antioxidants. I think propolis is supposed to have astaxanthin which is the most powerful antioxidant we know of (like 100s of times stronger than vitamin c). I don't know if any of the k-beauty products with propolis have high astaxanthin content and I don't know how effective astaxanthin is on skin vs vitamin C, but I'm just putting it out there if you can't handle vitamin C products on your skin.
i just got the BOJ green tea + panthenol serum today! i love BOJ but their serums never interested me until i realized they renewed the formulation for this one to include mugwort!! so excited to try it 💚
The Mugwort Essence really interests me, I have the Rice Toner and I absolutely love it! It’s so moisturizing and calming and it simply makes my skin brighter and glowing. I’m blown away xD
The mugwort essence is lovely and the I'm from mugwort mask is fantastic too! I'm from does a really good job with their rice line, I'm hoping one day they do a green tea line!
Hi Kelly! Love this video! I’ve been using $1 sweatbands for years! Hate the drips lol. Always boost the snail cream with a few drops of sugarcane Squalane oil to get that occlusion!
So happy to see that a lot of these are FA safe! I’m adding the Thank you Farmer toner, mugwort essence, and BOJ serum to my wishlist. For someone who can’t really use retinoids because they often aren’t FA safe, what would you recommend for well aging?
OMG...why didn't I ever think of the wrist scrunchies??? I have plenty of old worn out elastic scrunchies to try..And she described the water flow perfectly...
YAY! Another great vudeo! Thank you for ALL of the education I have gotten from you regarding ingredients and priducts, specifically Korean products, I am a HUGE Korean Skincare LOVER, as well, but I am really only a year into my 'journey and I've really appreciated your suggestions and content that have GREATLY helped me along the way!! And yes, those wrist cuffs for water drips are GREAT! ❤😊
Hi Kelly, another great video, thank you! I would also be interested in knowing which ingredients you do not recommend mixing in a routine as it is always so tempting to layer our serums, adding face oil, etc. But I imagine it could sometimes be too much or simply not work well or cause irritation 🙂
For dehydrated redness and blemish prone skin (mild rosacea) do you recommend more the beauty of joseon green tea serum, NIOD modulating glucosides or something else ?
So glad you enjoyed it! Yes the Green Tea Fresh serum is lovely for well-aging, it has some additional powerful antioxidants but still really light and I can see most skin types enjoying it!
Since I was unable to find a green tea toner for my very dry skin, I’m going to order the isntree green tea fresh serum instead, I also watched the short 🙂
Hi Kelly ❤. I was curious if the Aestura barrier cream changed they're formula. I noticed the wording on the front of the new tubes are completely different. Now it says for dry sensitive skin.
I just tried the Im From Mugwort Essence sheet mask and was so disappointed. It stung my face and left me with tiny granules all over it. Like little grains of sand were in the serum? As I rubbed the serum in, they left little scratch marks all over my face and neck. I was do pumped to try it but now am skeptical of their products. I have loved using the Rice products in their line so not sure what happened with this product.
It's good you know that about your skin, though! Mine is sensitive without as much layering/replenishment. It's all about that individual skincare journey!
Did ya'll hear laneige cream skin maybe rereformulating? ☹️chnageing to cream skin cepapeptide. With HA and ceramides. I got samples of the new formula with my cream skin order. My face did NOT LIKE IT! I have very reactive skin☹️ I'm so sad! I think I'm gonna stock up before the orginal is no longer available ☹️
My reactive skin doesnt like HA so I am really disappointed with the new formula. The original was perfect for dry,sensitive skin and no other toner is a dupe. Here in South Africa its sold out everywhere so I cant restock.

Every time you post I immediately add most of what you use to my stylevana cart 😭❤️
Me too! 😂😅
My bank account is SCREAMING at me, but can’t stop won’t stop! I need to delete the YesStyle app from my phone 🥲
i just got the BOJ green tea + panthenol serum today! i love BOJ but their serums never interested me until i realized they renewed the formulation for this one to include mugwort!! so excited to try it 💚
I'm using their gingseng retinal product and I love it. If you have fine lines, maybe try it.
Ty!! I'm a K Beauty junkie!!❤❤
Thanks!

My faves are centella and propolis for sure, I also like galactomyces
OMG...why didn't I ever think of the wrist scrunchies??? I have plenty of old worn out elastic scrunchies to try..And she described the water flow perfectly...
I use old hair scrunchies (those 80s looking ones) to not get water run down my sleeves but the ones you used seem more full proof lol
Great video Kelly!!!! It's always a pleasure to see you!!!
Thank you Kelly for recommending the Hygee Ginseng essence. I will try it out. 😊
This was so informative, Kelly! Amazing content, thank you!
Great video as always. Love how you stick with your tried & true favorite ingredients.
You have a nice glow in this video Kelly ❤ Hope I can achieve the same glow someday.
Love your video's 🥰

Ooo I'm excited for you, let me know what you think when you try your goodies!
@@KellyDriscoll definitely! 🤍
Amazing video , kelly 🎉 ❤ xx
New video! Thank you!! 🤍💜
Kelly!! Would you recommend the Benton snail bee eye cream or the cosrx snail mucin better?
Also I LOVE propolis!!!
Hello, do you know Geek&Gorgeous ? ❤️
Love this!!
Hi Kelly. Just to clarify did you use Hyggee as a second essence? I thought it is a serum.
For dehydrated redness and blemish prone skin (mild rosacea) do you recommend more the beauty of joseon green tea serum, NIOD modulating glucosides or something else ?
Watching this made me miss using the Hygee and BOJ Calming seruuum! 😂
Absolutely loved this video. Kelly I saw on one of your shorts the isntree green tea serum!! Is that product good for well aging?
So glad you enjoyed it! Yes the Green Tea Fresh serum is lovely for well-aging, it has some additional powerful antioxidants but still really light and I can see most skin types enjoying it!
Since I was unable to find a green tea toner for my very dry skin, I’m going to order the isntree green tea fresh serum instead, I also watched the short 🙂

Great video!!
Yes!

I wish I could layer skincare like that but I have rosacea. With rosacea comes very sensitive skin like mine.
It's good you know that about your skin, though! Mine is sensitive without as much layering/replenishment. It's all about that individual skincare journey!
Please Video with best products of Korean skincare with clean ingredients
the links to that ginseng toner go to beauty of Josen could you please link the correct product. thank you!
Vitamin D also works me out really badly. I guess it increases testosterone for some people.
Ha. I thought it was relief-ful.

Seasonal allergies are making my skin look gross lol
Maybe they mean Relief-ul? All these hip made-up words... smh 😂
Yawn
