New Kbeauty reviews on STYLE STORY

• 23 Years Old Aqua Bab Modelling Mask - 5 stars
• Beautiful Skin

"I've used many face masks, however the 23 Years Old Aqua Bab Modeling Mask is by far the best I've used. I received a box which contains 4 uses. Its quite easy to make and use, the instructions are very easy to follow. Basically mixing sachet 1 then 2 and using the little mixing/application stick. The texture is quite thick, I was surprised at how well it held onto my face and stayed there as I did apply a thick layer all over my face.

The mask has a nice cool effect and when it dries it didn't feel stiff or dry on my skin. It felt quite nourishing and soft - a little like a jelly feel. To remove the mask I started from the bottom and rolled it upwards. It was super easy and clean to come off. I then gently patted the excess into my skin.

The results were amazing! My skin was super hydrated and I felt like my pores and fine lines were less visible. I had an instant glow to my skin. I applied the mask in the AM so I could enjoy the benefits of the mask throughout the day. My makeup applied so beautifully, I had a really nice flawless look without the effort. I am so happy with the 23 Years Old Aqua Bab Modeling Mask. definitely a holy grail product for me! I highly recommend!"

• Jelly Ko Dewy Glaze Toner - 5 Stars
• So glowy
• Never had such glowy skin since using this toner. Love adding into my routine.

• iUNIK Centella Bubble Cleanser
• Best cleanser
• I have been buying this quite often as the foam is very subtle to my face and love the feeling of my skin refresh after shower.

• Real Review for the Korean Beauty Show Podcast
• Fun and Informative by Nicky
• "I absolutely love this podcast and have listened to every episode. Host Lauren Lee is amazing and when she says she is a K-beauty expert, she absolutely means it. Whether you are interested in some of the nitty-gritty details on how ingredients work or want to learn about the latest trends in Seoul, this podcast has it covered. It’s also fun to learn about her journey creating the brand JellyKo. But my favorite thing about this podcast is how intelligent, honest and ethical Lauren is when presenting information. I can really count on it to be factual and trust it to guide what I put on my face, which is a big deal!"

Episode Summary:

Teens are faced with some specific skincare concerns driven by hormonal changes, excess sebum and acne. One of the great benefits of K-Beauty is that it’s focused on promoting healthy and well-nourished skin. This makes it ideal for teen skin, albeit with a few tweaks. It's not necessary for teens to follow the same routine as adults, nor do they need as many steps.

  Latest Kbeauty Reviews on STYLE STORY 

• 5 star review Jelly Ko Cherry Blossom Sleeping Mask  
• Beaut-i-ful
• "Putting it on feels like a spa treatment, and my skin is so soft and smooth the next day! Like if I happen to touch my face during the day the next day, I stop in my tracks for a second and just think “wow” - so soft, so smooth!"
• 5 Star Review for Charmzone Retinol Emulsion
• Beautiful product
• "I've been using this product for a short time and absolutely love it! If not only feels beautiful on my skin but hydrates it beautifully. Oh, and the scent is amaaaaazzzing. I can use this product after toner and then apply sunscreen and people often comment about how good my skin looks. Will definitely continue to use this product. Highly recommended :)"
• Review for Subi Perfect Pimple Patch 
• The longer you wear them, the better the results
• "What impressed me most about this product is that it smoothed / evened out the skin like nothing I’ve ever seen before! I found that the longer I was able to keep the patches on, the better results I got. The best result came after I accidentally left a patch on for a whole day and night. I move around a lot when I sleep and I found that sometimes I would put a patch on before bed and wake up to find it gone. Would love if they had a few more patches in the packet as I lost a few of them this way! Will definitely be repurchasing though as the post-inflammatory pigmentation/acne scars that these patches save you from is priceless." 

Latest Kbeauty Releases on STYLE STORY - I Dew Care 

I DEW CARE creates fun skin care that is as colorful as it is effective. The Korean brand makes products for oily and blemish-prone skin, dry and depleted skin and dull skin. 

Popular I DEW CARE products include the Juicy Kitten Purifying Power-Green Serum and the Bright Side Up Brightening Vitamin C Serum, all of which are vegan friendly, cruelty-free and 100% made in Korea.

Question of the Week ​​- DIY Sheet Masks

"Can you give details about the best toners or serums to use and the type of cotton pads (I assume the Aus style are great for this)?

I have Pyunkang Yul 1/3 Pads and the APLB Noni serum, which I bought for this purpose (to justify buying a serum I didn’t really need). I also convinced myself it would be more economical and environmentally friendly not having individual wrapped masks (not sure if that is actually the case though). Would be keen to hear your thoughts on the best way to DIY."

• Korean toners mentioned:
• Pyunkang Yul 
• COSRX Propolis Synergy Toner
• Jelly Ko Dewy Glaze
• Laneige Cream Skin Refiner
• iUNIK Vitamin Hyaluronic Acid Toner
• ISNTree Hyaluronic Acid Toner
• Any of the One Thing toners and extracts   

Recommendation of the Week - Korean Fried Chicken
