After trying way too many products (and way too much money down the drain), these are the ones that actually earned a permanent spot in my skincare routine. From gentle cleansers to the serums that finally calmed my skin down — this is my real, teste...
Map
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 make...
d'Alba White Truffle First Spray Serum
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.
Lip Sleeping Mask Nourish & Hydrate - Laneige
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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...
