I've repurchased this because it gives my skin that fresh, hydrated look without ever feeling heavy. It's one of those products I reach for whenever my skin feels tight or dehydrated.
DIVE IN Serum - Torriden

This is one of my favorite products whenever my skin needs an instant hydration boost. The ultra-fine mist feels incredibly refreshing, absorbs beautifully, and leaves my skin looking naturally dewy without feeling greasy. I love using it before and ...

My lips are naturally prone to dryness and this has become my nighttime lip care essential. Whenever my lips start feeling dry, I know I can count on this mask to bring them back to feeling soft, smooth, and comfortable by the next morning.

Finding a sunscreen I actually enjoy wearing every day isn't easy, but this one makes it effortless. It keeps my skin comfortable, hydrated, and glowing, which is exactly why it's earned a permanent spot in my skincare routine. The texture is silky, ...
SKIN1004 Centella Hyalu-Cica Water-Fit Sun Serum
 
Karina Aulia profile picture
It has been one of the cleansing oils I've tried, and I can say it lives up to its claims! ✨ It does a great job melting away makeup, sunscreen, excess oil, and even helps loosen blackheads and clogged pores. After rinsing, my skin feels deeply clean...
Anua Heartleaf Pore Control Cleansing Oil
 
Karina Aulia profile picture
My go-to first cleanse when my skin's feeling fussy. The foam is so gentle I almost forget I'm "cleansing." It never leaves that tight, stripped feeling, just soft and calm right after rinsing.
Anua Heartleaf Quercetinol Deep Cleansing Foam

If you're looking for another sunscreen that feels lightweight but still keeps your skin protected, this is one of my go-to picks! 💛 It has a creamy, moisturizing texture that blends effortlessly without leaving a white cast or feeling greasy.
Relief Sun Rice + Probiotics SPF50+ PA++++ - Beauty of Joseon
 
Karina Aulia profile picture
I use two cleansing foam products. This is my favourite one. It has Low-pH and mineral-rich, it clears the day away without that squeaky, stripped feeling — just balanced, breathable skin every time. 🫧
1025 Dokdo Cleanser - Round Lab
 
Karina Aulia profile picture
This is one of those skincare tools that makes my routine feel more intentional. Even spending a few extra minutes with it helps turn skincare into a relaxing self-care ritual, and I genuinely enjoy the healthy glow my skin has afterward. I usually u...
medicube Booster Pro 6-in-1 Glass Glow
 
Karina Aulia profile picture
This is the one that started it all for me, honestly. Yes, it's the "salmon DNA" serum everyone's been talking about (Kim Kardashian and Kris Jenner have both said they use it, if that means anything to you). It's pricier than the others, but it's al...
REJURAN Turnover Ampoule, c-PDRN Salmon DNA
 
Karina Aulia profile picture
Skin type: pretty much everyone. This one earned its hype — 243 Da patented collagen (small enough to actually absorb), clinically tested safe for up to 8 hours of wear, and PEG-free unlike a lot of competitors. I usually used it before sleep and pee...
BIODANCE Bio-Collagen Real Deep Hydrating Mask
 
Karina Aulia profile picture
This is Rejuran's other flagship, sitting right alongside the more famous Turnover Ampoule (gold bottle vs. this one). The difference: Turnover is pure, maximum-strength PDRN for renewal, while Dual Effect layers in a full support cast — Ceramide NP ...
REJURAN Turnover Ampoule, c-PDRN Salmon DNA
 
Karina Aulia profile picture
This one's newer and less hyped than the big Rejuran name, but honestly don't sleep on it. It's 1200ppm of 99%-pure salmon PDRN in a lightweight gel texture, paired with niacinamide, panthenol, collagen, and hyaluronic acid — so you're getting the re...
Dr. Reju-All: Rejuvenation & Wellness
 
Karina Aulia profile picture
This is my "treat yourself before an event" pick, not a daily thing. It went properly viral for a reason — pairs PDRN with collagen in a hydrogel mask, and the plumping effect right after peeling it off is genuinely visible. Great for a pre-party glo...
Salmon PDRN Pink Collagen Jelly Mask
 
Karina Aulia profile picture
The gentle one. This is a new product from anua. If your skin freaks out at anything new, start here instead of the more intense options above. It's lightweight, watery, non-comedogenic, and genuinely well-tolerated even on reactive skin — more about...
Anua PDRN Hyaluronic Acid Capsule 100 Serum
 
Karina Aulia profile picture
At this point you know I can't skip anything with PDRN in it, and these earned their spot in the drawer. Caffeine for the puffiness, collagen and retinol for firming, PDRN doing its usual calm-and-repair thing underneath — it's basically the greatest...
Medicube Eye Patch PDRN Caffeine Collagen
 
Karina Aulia profile picture
My under-eye area was dark. This eye serum feels lightweight yet nourishing, making it perfect for daily use. I love that it combines PDRN, peptides, retinol, and niacinamide to target fine lines, uneven skin tone, and tired-looking under-eyes withou...
PDRN Pink Peptide Eye Cream - medicube us
 
Karina Aulia profile picture
If your skin needs hydration without feeling greasy, this moisturizer is a great pick. It has a lightweight, soothing texture that calms irritation while keeping my skin moisturized all day. The niacinamide also helps improve overall skin tone, makin...

Karina Aulia profile picture
This serum gives my skin a brighter, healthier glow while helping fade post-acne marks over time. The combination of Vitamin C, glutathione, niacinamide, and vitamin E makes it a great choice for anyone looking to improve dullness and achieve that gl...
Arencia Vitamin C Booster Serum with Glutathione
 
Karina Aulia profile picture
A beginner-friendly retinal treatment that focuses on improving skin texture and firmness. It absorbs well, doesn't feel greasy, and leaves my skin looking smoother with continued use. If you're starting your retinal journey, this is a gentle yet eff...
Celimax The Vita A Retinal Shot Tightening Booster (0.51 fl.oz)
 
Karina Aulia profile picture
One of my favorite eye serums for keeping the under-eye area hydrated and smooth. The blend of retinal and ginseng helps soften the appearance of fine lines while still feeling gentle enough for regular use. It's lightweight, easy to layer, and makes...
Revive Eye Serum Ginseng + Retinal
 
Karina Aulia profile picture
I really like this product when my skin needs extra hydration without feeling too heavy. It has a lightweight, soothing texture that leaves my skin feeling soft, plump, and comfortably moisturized. Especially nice for normal-to-dry skin or when your ...
Torriden DIVE IN Hyaluronic Acid Soothing Cream 100ml (3.38 fl. oz ...
 
Karina Aulia profile picture
The milky texture feels soft and comforting, leaving my skin smooth, moisturized, and more supple without feeling too heavy. Perfect for normal-to-dry skin, especially when my skin feels a little dry or dehydrated. 🤍

Karina Aulia profile picture
It feels like such a luxurious first step in my routine. It has a silky, lightweight texture and leaves my skin feeling soft, nourished, and more hydrated. I love it when I want that healthy, well-cared-for glow, especially for normal-to-dry skin. ✨

I really like this for a quick pore-refreshing treatment. It leaves my skin feeling clean, smoother, and less congested without that super tight, stripped feeling. Perfect for when my skin needs a little reset!
[Beauty of Joseon] Red Bean Refreshing Pore Mask 140ml
 
Karina Aulia profile picture
A good exfoliating toner for when my skin looks dull or feels a little rough. It helps make the skin feel smoother and more refreshed, but since it’s 7% glycolic acid, I’d definitely start slow and avoid over-exfoliating.
