Joan Kim’s Top 3 Skin Care Tips: (Source: TheKlog)
1.) “I noticed that in the U.S., people stress makeup more than skin care. It broke my heart because it’s really about the base and not covering it up, and I have acne-prone skin, so it was understandable that you wanna cover up your skin, but moving to Korea helped me realize it’s more about worrying about skin care first.”
2.) “Double cleanse. That’s so important. I think double cleansing changed my life because it really cleans your face, and that’s important if you have acne-prone skin and you won’t break out.”
3.) “Moisturizing is really important when you want the dewy, bouncy look, because if your skin is desert dry, you won’t be able to achieve that look at all.”

“This is filled with antioxidants, and it’s a very rich cream… And the packaging is just to-die-for!”
2.) NEOGEN Bio-Peel Gauze Peeling Wine
“After using this, my skin feels so soft! And I just really appreciate how creative Neogen products are.”
3. COSRX
“COSRX is actually one of my favourite Korean skin care lines because they’re very gentle and really good for acne.”
4.) Cosrx Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence
“I love snail products for skin, they fade scars, which I have, and it brightens up your skin.”
5.) Cosrx Ultimate Honey Overnight Mask
“I love how the honey really brightens up my skin, and also good for acne.”
6.) Cosrx Oil Free Ultra-Moisturising Lotion (with Birch Sap)
“It’s VERY hydrating. This product isn’t a cream, but it’s a very light lotion that I would recommend to people who don’t want something thick.”
7.) Cosrx Low-pH Good Morning Gel Cleanser
“It’s been featured in so many of my videos because I can’t find anything better than this one. It doesn’t strip my skin from its natural oils, and I love how refreshing it is.”
8.) KLAVUU Pure Pearlsation Revitalizing Facial Cleansing Foam
“Usually when it comes to foam cleansers, I am very picky because it dries out my skin, but not the case with this one. It almost feels like a gel cleanser and I just love how it removes that extra makeup that my oil cleanser might have forgotten to remove.”
9.) KLAIRS Rich Moist Soothing Cream
“It’s affordable, that’s one thing. And two I love how it’s in a tub so I don’t have to scoop it out… But also it just keeps my skin looking hydrated and healthy.”
10.) J. One Hana Cream
“Very moisturising, and it’s also formulated with peptides so it’s great for anti-wrinkles.”
