JUMISO: Makes Me Smile!!

#KBeauty brand JUMISO is on a mission to make us smile…and boy do they ever!

πŸ˜ƒπŸ˜ƒπŸ˜ƒ Just take a look at their bright & charming packaging!!






@jumiso_global {PR/Gifted} kindly sent me three beautiful products to try, including:


🧑 All Day Vitamin Brightening & Balancing Facial Serum ~ this delightful serum promises to brighten skin with a gentle formula safe for those sensitive to pure Vitamin C. This consists of 86.14% Vitamin Tree Extracts (AKA Sea Buckhorn Leaves) and 0% water!! I like to use this in my AM routine because it’s so lightweight, with a delicate floral scent & works perfectly with my other products. I’ll have to wait and see about any brightening benefits…






πŸ’š Super Soothing Cica & Aloe Facial Serum ~ this is the most instantly soothing & calming serum I’ve ever used! I love the ingredients which include 41% Centella Asiatica & 31% Aloe Vera! Plus Hyaluronic Acids & Amino Acid Complex. This thick, kinda gooey serum helps to strengthen my skin barrier, hydrate it and improve elasticity! πŸ‘‰ One critique is that it seems a bit thick for the dropper bottle so I have to shake it out - bit of an inconvenience but definitely still worth it to me!





🀍 Snail EX Ultimate Boost Facial Essence ~

This nourishing Essence was specifically developed to be less sticky than the typical Snail Mucin products - which it definitely is. Although it still has that slimy texture, it’s much lighter/thinner than other πŸŒ products I’ve used. I appreciate how quickly it absorbs into my skin so I’m ready for next steps…And, it’s 100% cruelty-free!!






These all contain concentrated amounts of active ingredients & formulated to be light enough to layer with other products. πŸ˜ƒπŸ˜ƒ

Developed to be absorbed quickly into the skin.

πŸ™ Thanks @jumiso_global & @jumiso_us & @bazzaal_ for this wonderful opportunity!

Face Mists: Which is best for your skin?

Let’s talk Face Mists πŸ’¦


Who loooooves a good face mist??

Ya know I do…





But which Face Mist is right for your skin’s needs?


  1. HYDRATING ~ if your skin is feeling dehydrated, try a hydrating mist like the Rose Water Hydrating Facial Toner from @herbaldynamicsbeauty {Gifted} which features mega-moisturizing Aloe Vera, Green Tea & Chamomile.


  1. REPLENISHING ~ when my skin is feeling irritated, I reach for the Soothe Bamboo Water Gel Mist from @keepcool {Gifted} This incredibly fine mist instantly replenishes the skin barrier with Bamboo Water, Centella Asiatica & Hyaluronic Acids!


  1. TREATMENT ~ if your skin requires a bit more “active” attention, treat it with anti-wrinkle, anti-oxidant products like the Super Elixir Microbiome Mist from @beautypie which will aid in protecting the skin barrier + help to boost collagen production!!


  1. CALM & SOOTHE ~ for an overall sense of calmness & skin wellbeing try a one-of-a-kind face mist like the luxe First Spray Serum from @dalbapiedmont {Gifted} This is a delightfully delicate mist infused with white truffle to improve hydration & elasticity + soothe & impart glow!


Since I live in such a dry climate I like to keep face mists on my bedside table in case I need some extra attention during the night…anyone else do that  πŸ’‍♀️ These face mists are also ideal to refresh your skin throughout the day…don’t forget to spritz on your neck & dΓ©colletage!


Do you use face mists?? What’s your fave?

Healing Skincare Traditions


πŸŒ³πŸ’›πŸŒ³ Ancient traditions preserved for new generations! Experience the 100% Natural Burmese Skincare Remedy from @healing_bark {Gifted}






🌳 WHAT IS HEALING BARK:

It’s the ground bark known as “Thanaka” from Limonia & Naringi trees which grow in Southeast Asia. Healing Bark supports local farmers in the Myanmar region and the trees are sustainably farmed!! The HEALING BARK GOLDEN TREE BARK MASK utilizes the natural components of this Thanarka Powder ~ Coumarin, Arbutin & Marmesin said to detox, clear & calm skin… leaving it radiant & brightened!



🌳 HOW TO:

The Healing Bark Mask Kit comes with all you need to mix the mask ~

Step 1: Add 2 teaspoons of powder to bowl

Step 2: Add 3 teaspoons of water

Step 3: Mix until creamy paste forms

Step 4: Apply evenly to face & let dry

Step 5: Rinse with warm water


🌳 MY EXPERIENCE:

I love the experience of mixing the mask which makes me feel more connected to the tradition & like a beautiful ritual…

I experienced no irritation and I liked that it did not dry done tight or uncomfortable at all. But, after rinsing off, my skin did feel a bit dry/tight… of course I have dry skin type + dehydrated skin πŸ€ͺ I think this would be most ideal for combo and/or acne prone skin. I actually prefer using as a “Spot Treatment Mask” by combining 1/2 teaspoon with 2 teaspoons water and apply only to problem areas. After consistent use, I look forward to seeing some of the stated benefits!


πŸ₯° Thanks so much to @healing_bark for giving me this opportunity to try such a beautiful, traditional skincare remedy!


Have you ever tried a powder mask? πŸ’›πŸ’›

Toner vs. Essence - find out the difference!

πŸ‘‰ TONER vs. ESSENCE: What’s the difference?


Do you know the difference between a Toner and an Essence? Since I’ve been exploring #kbeauty products I’ve learned a lot more about these essentials so let me share a bit with y’all…






TONERS:

πŸ’¦ Usually a thin, watery consistency 

πŸ’¦ Often used for balancing skin’s pH levels - which is crucial after the cleansing step(s)

πŸ’¦ Ideal for removing any residue 

πŸ’¦ Different toners specific to your skin’s needs: like hydrating, exfoliating, calming, etc…










ESSENCES:

πŸ’¦ Usually more viscous, not as thin/watery

πŸ’¦ Best used AFTER toners

πŸ’¦ Ideal for skin that needs more moisture

πŸ’¦ Preps skin for next steps of your routine

πŸ’¦ Soothes skin for smoother, overall healthier skin barrier & enhances the effect of serums!










πŸ’› My Basic Routine Order is ~ Cleanser/Toner/Essence/Serums/Actives/Moisturizers/Oil

(+SPF in daytime routine!)πŸ’›


Do you love toners/essences?? What’s your fave? Let me know in the comments πŸ‘‡ and we can gush over them together πŸ˜‰πŸ₯°

Double Bubble cleanser: too much fun!

Detox with DOUBLE the BUBBLES πŸ’­πŸ’­πŸ’­


Thank you @sooae.official and @bazzaal_ for sending such an enjoyable, fun & beneficial facial cleanser to try! {PR}






πŸ–€ BLACK CHARCOAL DOUBLE BUBBLE CLEANSER: A 2-in-1 Cleanser + Mask to detox, purify & deeply clean the skin! Here’s a truly fun & innovative product that’s totally ideal for pore cleansing ~ it starts off as a goopy gel-like texture that magically transforms into super lightweight foamy bubbles to deeply clean away all traces of makeup, sunscreen & daily grime! This is super fun for a #SelfcareEveryday moment or at-home spa day ritual. Since I’ve got very dry skin, I opt to use no more than 2x per month. This definitely helps clean out my congested pores…Yayyy!!! πŸ–€πŸ–€ I also really like that it’s not tingly nor does it burn my eyes (some products that even get near my eyes can burn & sting - does that happen to anyone else?)


πŸ’­ Micro-oxygen Bubbles

πŸ’­ Purifying Black Charcoal

πŸ’­ Rosemary extracts to calm skin

πŸ’­ Low pH ~ safe for all skin types!

πŸ’­ Plant based ingredients 

πŸ’­ High quality & Affordable!!

$14.99/6.76oz.


✔️ HOW TO:

Step 1 ~ Apply thin layer to dry skin

Step 2 ~ Allow the self bubbling magic happen…and wait about 1 or 2 minutes for it to turn white & bubbles have completely covered your face

Step 3 ~ thoroughly rinse off with warm water.

🀍🀍🀍 BONUS STEP ~ for Flash Mask allow bubbles to set for approximately 3 minutes total then gently massage & rinse with warm water.






πŸ–€πŸ€ You can find this awesome cleanser & the Black Charcoal Collection at Amazon!


Happy Friday!
