Sept 2015 Week 4 Kbeauty Skincare Launches

Saturday, September 26, 2015

This week there are some awesome skincaretainment-y items for the kid-dult in everyone like the Skinfood gummy bear hand creams and it looks like someone took my suggestion to use sea horses instead of horses in skincare to heart. Ok, I'm obviously kidding but those are the releases that stood out to me. That and the new Rose of Sharon/Hibiscus line from our flowery friends at Mamonde. The Rose of Sharon/Hibiscus is the national flower of South Korea, so I'm excited to see if it has any real benefits to the skin.

So this one's kind of an interesting release. BRTC is the brand known for their vitamin sleeping pack which basically was one of the hottest sleeping packs around earlier this year. It looks like they've released a new, more amped up version of the sleeping pack in the Premium Vitalizer Whitening Ampoule Pack. It's not cheap at around $79 <-> 79000 KRW for about 50ml but it contains vitamins A, B3, B5, B6, B9, C, E, F, H. It's kind of like they took a cue from Xzibit and said "Yo dawg, I heard you like vitamins, so I put some vitamins in your vitamins so you can vitamin while you vitamin."  (Sorry). But the new sleeping pack is available here via a shipping service like Dowaja or Avecko. The NON-premium version is only $20.72 at Koreadepart right now here.

Royal Skin has been on my radar ever since I discovered they have under eye patches with microderm needles. Yeah - why I would want needles near my eyes? I'm crazy. Anyways they've come out with this new product called the "TT" Cream which stands for Transform and Tension. I think of it as a tightening cream. It contains Acetylhexapeptide-8 and Adenosine in addition to a number of botanical extracts. It's supposed to tighten your skin for 8 hours. Sounds like a crazy and potentially hokey claim but still titillating to say the least. Each set of 2 3ml !!! boosters costs roughly ~$45 <-> 45000 KRW and can be purchased from Royal Skin here through a shipping service like Dowaja or Avecko. If anyone goes for this, PLEASE update the rest of us.
