The Beauty Dose – August 3

It is an understatement to say that I love Korean beauty. If you look at my beauty stack, all you will see are Korean brands and I’m very happy labeling myself as obsessed. Literally every new skincare tech is created in Korea and then adopted by brands around the world months or maybe even years later. I remember, BB cream (which originated in Korea) was super popular in South Asia when I was in Taipei in 2011. I only started seeing BB cream around the US in 2012/13 and in India in 2015.
Also, the Korean skincare market is SUPER competitive and companies release new products literally every month. Isn’t that crazy? Makes me want to move to Korea right now hehe
So, today’s focus is Asian skincare because I’ve also included a piece about a cool Japanese carbonated face treatment.

The world of skincare can be intimidating. It can be difficult to navigate through all the products, the skincare steps or even figuring out what type of skin you have. It took me a good year to figure out my skin type and what routines & products actually worked for me. After a lot of internet research and even more trial & testing, I have realized that your skin type can change over time which means that you skincare routine must evolve depending on the season/your skin.

Here are some pieces that can make the process easier – from multi-tasking products to a list of the tried & tested best products.

So it’s monsoon time in India which means that my already oily skin is now more oily. I’ve had to give my skincare and makeup routine a serious makeover to deal with this weather. Here are a few links that  have helpful information on how to still look your best during the summer & monsoon. I’ve also added an article about mirror nailpolish, which I am so excited by since it’s finally a look that I can achieve at home!

The Beauty Dose – July 15

How many of you have trouble organising your makeup & skincare products yet your fingers itch to buy more stuff every time you enter Sephora? My hand is raised sky high right now because I am so guilty of doing this. But I’ve realised that it is so difficult to actually enjoy all my products if I can’t find the right product when I need it. So now, I focus on a) organizing all my products so that they’re easily accessible, b) not buying different versions of products I already own and c) looking at product reviews before I purchase to prevent myself from buying foundation that doesn’t work but has pretty packaging, for example.

Today’s focus is organising your stash and filtering out products that are not that great.

Enjoy!
