[BEAUTY] Review: Klairs Korean Skincare Regime

Oh hello, my old skincare buddy, Klairs! ❤ Roughly 3-4 years ago, I used to own alot of Klairs products and my favourites were the Blemish Cream (makeup foundation) and Black Sugar Facial Polish (facial scrub). Until today, I am still a huge fan of Klairs and my current favourite is the cute Mochi BB Cushion.

This round, I have recently replenished my Klairs skincare collection directly from Korea. Let's check out my shopping haul from this Korean beauty brand...

Klairs Gentle Black Deep Cleansing Oil (150ml) @ RM99.00

To begin with, we always need a good cleanser before moving to all the skincare steps. Without a properly cleansed face, how can the good ingredients in the following skincare steps penetrate deep into the skin right? So I have this special cleansing oil that combines natural black grains such as:

❤ Black Bean Oil : Controls sebum production and increases skin elasticity
❤ Black Sesame Oil : Prevents dehydration and skin aging
❤ Blackcurrant Seed Oil : Strengthens the skin's protective layer and promotes cell regeneration

 

How To Use:
1. Massage over dry face from forehead to nose and cheeks
2. After massaging, do not wipe off with tissue but rinse off with lukewarm water for 2-3 times.
3. (Optional) You can use soap to wash away the remaining oil.

Texture: Oil-based fluid.

To be honest, I am not a fan of oil-based cleanser (except for makeup remover). However, I appreciate how well it cleanses off the dirt on the skin, but using a mild cleanser to remove the oil residue is a must for me. 

Recommended for:
❤ Rough skin with blackheads and dead skin cells
❤ Dry or sensitive skin

By Wishtrend Pure Vitamin C 21.5 Advanced Serum (30ml)

I remembered trying this product before long time ago. Now the formula has been upgraded so I am tempted to try it out! The improved serum now has 21.5% of pure Vitamin C (last time only 20%), therefore it comes with better hydrating power, suppleness and absorption without any stickiness.

How To Use:
1. Press on the dropper and apply thin layer onto the skin.

Texture: Light and non-sticky.
Honestly, the texture has improved so much! Now it is very lightweight, non-sticky and spreads easily over the skin.

Result: Brighter, clearer skin.
It takes up to 14 weeks to see visible results on the skin if you have acne scars or dull, tired skin. The antioxidant-rich Vitamin C serum can help nourish the skin, boost moisture and brighten skin tone. The acne scars will appear less visible too.

*During hot weather, it is normal if the pure vitamin serum leaks out of the bottle.
Therefore, it is recommended to keep it in the fridge.

Recommended for:
❤ Oily or troubled skin
❤ Skin with acne scars or dull skin tone

Klairs Freshly Juiced Vitamin E Mask (90ml)

The KLAIRS Freshly Juiced Vitamin E Mask is most effective when used with vitamin C. It is a whitening sleeping mask for whitening, moisturizing and anti-aging benefits.

Vitamin C Drop + Vitamin E Mask = Perfect DIY Duo!

When Vitamin C and E combine, they enhance the effectiveness of each other through the antioxidant network and protect the skin from active oxygen, preventing aging. In addition, vitamin E prevents vitamin C from being oxidized before being absorbed by the skin, intensifying the skin-improving effects of vitamin C.

How To Use:
1. Apply thin layer over skin and wash off after 20 minutes.
2. Or mix the vitamin mask with the Vitamin C serum for an enhanced effect of additional brightening, wrinkle-repairing, and moisturizing with the antioxidant power.

*The mixing ratio can be adjusted freely depending on the skin type and desired texture of the product.

Texture:

The Vitamin E mask has a very unique “shape memory cream” texture which feels like pudding / custard. The pudding-like texture transforms into a rich serum-like essence when in contact with the skin, sealing the skin with moisture for at least 8 hours.

Recommended for:
❤ Dry, dull or tired skin.

 Klairs Mochi BB Cushion SPF40 PA++

Lastly, Klair's most exciting product that I have been using is the limited edition Mochi BB Cushion. It is also Klair's all-time bestseller, because...nobody can resist such cuteness right? This is the third Mochi BB Cushion I have now -- You can tell how much I love it!

Comes together with the cute mochi puff applicator, the cushion is designed as a balm-type product rather than a liquid-based cushion. Therefore, the improved formula is better able to fill the pores and give a better coverage that lasts for the day. 

Follow the above steps if you prefer maximum coverage with matte finish.

How To Use:
❤ (Easy) For hydrating and natural coverage: Simply use after opening
❤ (Moderate) For glow and more coverage: Use a cotton swab to press down the sponge for 1 minute to absorb the heavy balm-type formula to increase the coverage.
❤ (Difficult) For full coverage and very matte finish: Flip the sponge over before you start using the cushion.

Recommended for all skin types.

Color: Ideal for all
The cushion is available in only one shade i.e. apricot-beige that fits all skin tone. Whether you have yellow undertones or redness on the skin, it neutralises the color well and gives a natural brightened and healthy-looking coverage.

Result: Fairly good and natural coverage

I personally love the refreshing finish that it leaves on the skin. Coverage wise, it could be better but I like the lightweight texture that leaves the skin moist and breathable.  

Overall Verdict:
If I were to recommend only one must-buy product, it would be the Mochi BB Cushion!
Klairs products are available at Hermo and several online shopping sites too.
