How to be like Jang Wonyoung

As many of you requested, part 2 of my it girls series is all about Jang Wonyeong, who's not only absolutely STUNNING, but also incredibly talented, hardworking, and of course successful. Let's get right into it!! <33

Wonyoungs Energy:

Wonyoung is incredibly charismatic, which makes her stand out without even trying!!

She has a bubbly and likeable Personality, Wonyoung appears happy and welcoming, she easily lights up a room with just her presence.

Aside from being cute and cheerful, Wonyoung is also known for being extremely hardworking!!

Confident and Unbothered. Despite receiving quite a bit of unnecessary hate, Wonyoung stays indifferent and true to herself!!

Elegant and feminine. No one does the ‘Elegant feminine self-love girly’ aesthetic like her, she is THE girly girl!! <3

Mindset:

Learn to deal with jealousy, Wonyoung gets plenty of hate, but let's be real for a second… we all know that is because of jealousy. Pretty, successful, smart, and popular? Of course, people will be jealous!!

“While practising self-love, you see good and pretty things about yourself. If I focus only on those things, I don't need to pay much attention to the criticism.”

Don't compare yourself to others “You are you, I am me”.

Keep to yourself. Stop telling people your ideas, your dreams and how you plan to archive them, your goals etc. Let your actions speak for themself!! <3

No more negative self-talk!!

Be your number 1 priority!! Take care of yourself, do what's good for you, eat well, care for your body, skincare, haircare, and your education!! PRIORITIES

Skincare

Skincare. Wonyoung has Flawless skin, finding a skincare routine that works for you can help you archive similar results!!

Wonyoungs skincare routine:

According to Google, Wonyoung only uses Innisfree products and starts by double cleansing her face, for that, she uses the Green Tea Cleansing Oil ($24), and the Green Tea Amino Acid Face Cleanser ($12)

To get the dewy class skin effect, hydration is key!! In the morning, Wonyoung likes using the Green Tea Hyaluronic Acid Serum ($30) and the Dewy Glow Tone-up Cream ($26)

Of course, you can't forget SPF. Wonyoung uses the Mild Cica Sunscreen Tone-Up SPF 50+ PA ++++, which is also great for acne-prone and sensitive skin types!! :)

For her night routine, she likes the Retinol Cica Moisture Recovery Serum ($37) and the Dewy Glow Jelly Cream ($26).

Elevate your daily life:

Healthy diet. Eating nutritious and healthy food is the first and most important step to clear skin and an overall good feeling!! Make sure to eat enough protein (ex. yoghurt, chicken, tofu or eggs), lots of fruits and veggies, and healthy fats (ex. Avocados, fish, nuts, olive oil)!!

Exercise daily. Besides dancing, Wonyoung loves pilates!! You can find lots of great Pilates videos on YouTube!!

Work on your posture!! Having good posture will not only make you feel better but also lets you appear more confident, elegant and put together. Try daily stretching and exercises to improve it <3

Try establishing a proper morning and night routine, this can help you stay structured and relaxed even on more messy and busy days.

Content that makes you feel better!! Start watching channels like thewizardliz, vogue beauty secrets, and read motivating blogs. (like mine lol <3)

Makeup:

Wonyoung is known for her iconic glittery and feminine make-up!!

Light pink blush, plump lips, glowy skin and a glittery but not too heavy eye look.

Foundation on the centre of your face and blend outwards for a naturally contoured look.

Always apply your matt products before your shimmers, that way, your makeup looks cleaner!! Also, apply your glitters from finest to chunkiest. :)

Don't apply your shimmers/glitters past the middle of your eyelid to avoid looking puffy.

If you have warm-toned skin, go for peachy glitters, for cool-toned skin, choose a champagne-coloured one.

If your struggle with dark under eyes, blend your concealer with your fingers!! This will give it a lot more coverage.

You can find lots of tutorials on Wonyoung-inspired make-up on YouTube, this one is my favourite.

I hope this little guide was helpful, I wasn't too familiar with Wonyoung, but I did some research since she was the number 1 most requested person for this!! :)

As always, please feel free to share your own suggestions in the comments and let me know who you want me to write about next! <3

Yandere Izuku, Dabi, Overhaul, and Hawks with gn darling who has severe acne

Warnings: yandere behavior and talks about surgery.

A/N: these are all my comfort characters and since June is Acne Awareness Month, I decided to write this and post this.

I hope you enjoy and remember, you all matter and I love you for being you.

Deku / Izuku Midoryia:

This green boy loves everything about you, especially your face. No matter how you wake up, to him: you always look like a Greek statue ready to be admired every second of the day.

Breakouts are normal. It happens to everyone. When it does occur, Izuku is right behind you, comforting you and making sure you feel as perfect as you are - kissing those marks and going as far as to participate in your care routine to feel less alone.

If you want to, Izuku is more than happy to take vitamins or anti-inflammatory medications to help you. With the help of the internet, he’s prone to come up to you and introduce things you may have not tried; using this as an excuse to get closer to you.

If you decide to wear makeup, he will help find the best types of face cleansers and foundations, making sure they don’t cause you to have a massive breakout.

If you ever are insecure, Izuku will comfort you by giving you cuddles; his beefy arms wrapping around you as he kisses your face. Reminding you that those dots on your face make you look more perfect. You are incredibly attractive.

Dabi:

He thinks you’re beautiful, no matter the marks you may see as a nuisance. He finds nothing wrong with acne, as it’s normal. The acne doesn’t bother him, therefore, it shouldn’t bother you.

But, with insecurities and social media standards, it’s hard to continue on the day without feeling insecure. With this said, Dabi is quite blunt about comforting you about your insecurities; going as far as to ask ‘why’ you think that you’re somehow unattractive because of these marks.

While his main thing is to never offend you or make you feel bad - he just doesn’t understand the reason you’re insecure. Nevertheless, if you are standing in front of a mirror or having a bad mental day, Dabi will help you as best as he can. Though, he does understand what it’s like to feel insecure and think bad things about yourself, especially with things you can’t control. He often tells you that you’ve seen the real him - his hair, his smile, and his purple-burnt skin that you love to kiss. You’ve grown to love it, which made him start to love it as well. Slowly but surely, he’ll make you realize that you are just as pretty as he states every single day.

Dabi is… not the best at comfort. But he will try. His best bet with comforting is a type of distraction, whether getting your favorite snacks and drinks or putting a comfortable movie on whilst cuddling is the best he can do. Kissing your face as he tells you about the things he did for that day. Sure, it won’t help the spots, but it’ll help the way you feel.

He’s 50/50 to do face masks or skin care routines with you. I mean… by his face, he’s needed for it. But, he’s more hesitant to try things, especially if it’s new. But, if it makes you feel better, Dabi is adamant about finishing it with you; staying up pretty late, and putting on music while you two make a mess in the bathroom as he tries to mess with you.

Dabi is quite often kissing your face, especially your cheek and lower neck. No matter the complaints you push out, he will shush you and continually kiss you.

Overhaul / Kai Chisaki:

He doesn’t care about your acne, as much as he’s a clean freak and loves organized areas, he views you as his deity - a person of much perfection. In his eyes, nothing can be wrong with you.

Overhaul often wears his mask with you, but with your insecurity, he will take it off around you so you feel at least comfortable and less alone. In his mind, if he shows his vulnerability towards you, you will feel less alone and more appreciative towards yourself.

Like Dabi, he’s not the best at comforting you when you’re insecure. While he will try his best, distraction is also the best for him. At times, Overhaul can be blunt and you may take it the wrong way. This leads to him suggesting things, even if you didn’t ask for them; offering to do face masks and facial cream with you, and even going as far as to ask if you’d prefer surgery or laser treatment.

While he never tries to offend you, much like Dabi, he doesn’t see the reason why you’re self-conscious. Just because society views it as ‘disgusting’ or ‘not attractive’ makes him confused. It’s just spots, it’s no biggie. Nevertheless, Kai will help you with whatever you want.

If you decide to wear makeup, Kai will treat you the same, complimenting you if you decide to change it up to something brighter or more design-like. He notices the slightest things, which Kai observes from your reactions, and smiles underneath his mask whenever you take his compliments in.

Kai overall really hates seeing you upset by the marks. So, on a particular day when you feel bad, he will have your comfort food delivered to you and sit next to you - letting you pick whatever movie or TV show to watch as he bluntly rubs your back.

Hawks / Keigo Takami:

Keigo doesn’t see a problem with your acne. There’s nothing wrong with it. It’s part of human biology. He finds you attractive - even if you woke up from the night before from roughhousing.

Some days are indecisive, yesterday was fine but today, you wake up with a huge breakout and a headache. With this, Keigo is a huge help. Each morning, he makes sure to give you ibuprofen, reminding you to take it easy for the day as he pecks kisses along your neck, promising to get your favorites after work whilst getting ready to leave for work - late yet again.

If you are ever insecure, Hawks will get a bit dumbfounded. How are you upset with yourself? You are so pretty, don’t you realize that? But, with more thoughts about social media and their standards - he gets a bit sad. Of course, he’ll immediately comfort you but he’s unsure what to do until a few days later.

In the next few days, Hawks will be pampering you with a bunch of kisses, hugs with his wings, and gifts. A lot of the gifts include things that are comforting to you, including food and drinks, some more blankets, rare figures from those TV shows and movies you adore, and some vitamins he thought would help with your acne.

While you may feel insufficient and start listing the things you hate about yourself, including the acne, Keigo will immediately wrap you in his wings and kiss your mouth shut with his, making sure to make you laugh out loud as he tells you everything about what he loves about you (and I mean everything)

Would anyone be interested in a review of white foundations for trad goth makeup but specifically on acne prone skin? I find a lot of white foundations sort of clump up in acne scabs and sores making it look patchy and kind of chunky. I’ve tried a few and I’ve found some good ones that work. Let me know.

[dangerously-human]

What is Tumblr for if not complaining about meaningless things, yes? My favorite foundation (Nyx skin veil) got discontinued, disrespectful, so I'm on the hunt for a new one and currently exasperated because everywhere I'm looking for foundation for pale girls is recommending something I already know is two shades too dark for me in the lightest shade. I already know I'm extremely white, thank you, that's why finding this foundation in the first place was such a win, it's hard enough finding the right shade even without considering I've got dry skin that's also pretty acne-prone, and I wanted something light and moisturizing. Boo.

Makeup Myths and Acne Realities

(Credit to: Jacob Lund)

While doing more in-depth fashion research, I came across fact vs. fiction in regards to makeup and acne-- particularly, that improper makeup prep or cleansing leads to acne breakouts so tremendous they are seen through makeup, from a few feet away, or even through online photos.

Now thoroughly intrigued, I set out to tackle the differences in "makeup" acne and more serious acne conditions.

**Note**: If you want to skip straight to the pictures demonstrating the differences between acne caused by improper technique and acne caused by long-term skin conditions, scroll down to MAKEUP BREAKOUTS OR HORMONAL IMBALANCES?

ACNE MYTHS

(Credit to: Susana Ramirez)

The myth most topical to this post is spelled out by dermatologist expert Anjali Mahto here:

There's a misconception that makeup can cause acne, and those with acne-prone skin are often told that makeup will make acne worse. "I definitely don't think we should be shaming people for wearing makeup, as long as they are guided on the types of products they should be using and the application process," says Mahto. "There are clinical trial data that show that wearing makeup will give acne sufferers more confidence. Makeup alone doesn't cause acne. Likewise, going makeup free won't stop excess oil, bacteria or dead skin cells shedding in the pores or control the spot-causing bacteria."

Sticking to the topic of acne and makeup, Amy Derick (MD) succinctly debunks popular acne myths in this WebMD article:

Acne Myth 1: Adults don’t get acne.

Not true. Surveys have found that significant numbers of adults are still getting acne into their 30s, 40s, and even 50s. Acne may look different when you’re 36 than it did when you were 16 -- it’s more likely to be reddish nodules around your mouth and jaw, rather than whiteheads and blackheads scattered all over your forehead, nose, and cheeks -- but it’s acne all the same.

Acne Myth 5: You have acne because you’re not washing enough.

Unless you’re a slob, that’s probably not true. “Studies in teens show that washing your face twice a day is more effective than just once, but more than that isn’t necessary and can dry out your skin,” Derick says. “Cleansers are only on your skin for five seconds. Leave-on products like retinoid creams are more efficacious.”

(Further, verywellhealth also notes: ...over-cleaning the skin can lead to dryness, which can trigger the overproduction of sebum and an outbreak of acne.)

Acne Myth 6: You can’t wear makeup if you have a breakout.

"Some makeup can definitely exacerbate acne, particularly thicker liquid foundations that can clog pores and stage-type pancake makeup. But lighter, looser powder foundations, like mineral powder, aren’t nearly as aggravating to your skin,” Derick says. “Of course, people who have acne want to cover it, and coverage is better with thicker liquids, but you have to compromise.”

We know makeup can cause acne breakouts, though. So: what type of acne does it cause, and how do we differentiate?

ACNE BASICS

healthline lays out a nice, simple guide for all things acne:

Types of acne

The most common types of acne are:

whiteheads

blackheads

papules

pustules

nodules

cystic acne

Aaron Secrest, an academic/research dermatologist at the University of Utah, says these types are broken into two groups:

Comedonal acne, including whiteheads and blackheads

Inflammatory acne, including papules, pustules, nodules, and cystic acne

Both types of acne are caused by:

clogged pores

bacteria

overproduction of oil

hormonal changes

Acne subtypes

There are also several subtypes of acne, including:

adult hormonal acne (occurs due to hormonal fluctuations)

acne excoriée (occurs when someone with acne compulsively picks their skin, leading to scarring)

acne mechanical (occurs due to friction or pressure against the skin)

acne conglobata (occurs when nodules, abscesses, and cysts link below the skin, causing redness and swelling)

acne as a side effect of medications

COMEDONAL OR INFLAMMATORY ACNE

Comedonal acne are the garden variety cookie cutter acne: those divorced from hormonal imbalances or deep-rooted skin issues. Simply put, they are easily created and easily cured, leaving little to no trace in their wake. These are the makeup pimples caused by lack of proper care: whiteheads or blackheads that crop up overnight because of improper cleansing techniques.

Inflammatory acne are the tough nuts to crack: they are imbedded with hormonal imbalances or deep-rooted skin issues-- chronic symptoms of larger issues that leave deep ruts or long-term scars if not treated quickly and accurately. These are lifelong issues: no matter if one cleanses or sunscreens or diets or kumbayas properly, hormonal or cystic acne or modules or pustules will pop out or inflame or set in with very little prompting; and are incredibly difficult to hide-- if at all-- under makeup.

(I recommend this healthline article for an in-depth spreadsheet about the differing types of acnes and their treatments.)

INFLAMMATORY ACNE: HORMONAL ACNE

(Credit to: @SKINCAREGEM)

The common cause underlying all types of acne is an imbalance of the androgen hormone, which flares up during puberty and levels out in one's later teens or twenties.

Hormonal acne, however, is a type of inflammatory acne that rages out of control no matter a person's age or their careful, consistent attempts to control it: breakouts and flareups occur without mercy, and wreck havoc despite careful, consistent management.

Dr. Elyse M. Love says:

"The term hormonal acne is typically used to describe adult-onset female acne, as there tends to be a strong hormonal component to this type,” explains Elyse M. Love, MD, a NYC-based dermatologist. She goes on to say that this acne can can present in your 20s, 30s, and 40s, and impact both those who have experienced cystic breakouts before and those who haven’t.

"Hormonal acne is almost always cystic and inflammatory in nature,” says Dr. Love. “It presents with painful red papules, pustules, and deep cysts on the lower face, and it can create long-term scarring (especially if you attempt to pop it). At its mildest form, hormonal acne presents with a breakout or two near menstruation, but for many, it can persist all month long.”

She explains that hormonal acne most commonly occurs on the lower face (on the lower cheeks, jawline, chin) and body (across the chest, back, and shoulders), but can also present between the brows.

(Credit to: kyliespoon)

And Dr. Joshua Zeichner concurs:

According to board-certified dermatologist, Joshua Zeichner, MD, there are two main indicators of whether your acne is in fact due to hormones: Your breakouts happen along the lower third of your face, and they get worse before your period when there is an excess build-up of testosterone.

And verywellhealth agrees:

"For around 40% of women, however, acne may continue well into their 40s....

healthline states:

Hormonal acne may be caused by influxes of hormones from:

menstruation

polycystic ovarian syndrome

menopause

increased androgen levels

Specifically, these hormone fluctuations may aggravate acne issues by increasing:

overall skin inflammation

oil (sebum) production in the pores

clogged skin cells in hair follicles

production of acne-causing bacteria called Propionibacterium acnes

Unless your hormonal acne is mild, over-the-counter (OTC) products usually aren’t successful.

This is because hormonal acne typically takes the form of cystic bumps. These bumps form deep under the skin, out of reach of most topical medications.

How hard is it to manage hormonal acne?

Example: KiranJagpal shared photos from her six-year skincare journey after recently (at the time of her upload) figuring out how to balance her skincare routine, diet, and lifestyle to better manage bigger breakouts (with no guarantee life won't throw that balance out of the window sometime in the future, despite her best efforts.)

clevelandclinic.org describes:

Causes of hormonal acne that you can control

Stress.

Lack of sleep.

Using hair and skin care products that aren’t oil-free or free of ingredients that won’t clog pores (non-comedogenic or non-acnegenic).

Causes for hormonal acne that you can’t do anything about

Changing hormone levels in women, including around your period, irregular periods, during pregnancy, during menopause or after discontinuing birth control.

Men undergoing testosterone treatment.

Family history of acne (genetic predisposition).

Side effect of a medication (steroids).

Pre-existing medical conditions (polycystic ovary syndrome, other ovarian conditions and metabolic conditions).

Again, that leaves us with the question--

MAKEUP BREAKOUTS OR HORMONAL IMBALANCES?

(Credit to: Makeup by Ren Ren)

Here we reach the key distinction: breakouts due to negligence, or breakouts due to chronic skin conditions or sensitivities?

Makeup is an industry stuffed to the gills with different formulations; and with so much variety, there is guaranteed to be at least one formula that irritates and one that doesn't. If either a foundation formula or an improper cleansing routine creates a problem, it will likely cause a day-or-two comedonal breakout-- which is very different from an inflammatory breakout's raised, textured, or inflamed week-to-month skin.

(Fun fact: clean beauty often fares worse for sensitive or acne-prone skin types because their replacement preservatives do an awful job keeping mold or chemical aging at bay. Not recommended.)

Comedonal acne: whiteheads or blackheads that bloom in small patches, and are easily disguised by makeup-- typically with a thin layer of foundation or concealer-- and practically invisible a foot or two away or through a photo (unless shot up-close.)

(Credit to: ??)

(Credit to: @ValentineKissesBeauty)

Hormonal imbalance breakouts caused by either skin irritation or other external or internal factors: a combination of cysts or pustules or papules or nodules with the previously mentioned whiteheads and blackheads. They are definitely harder to cover-- requiring a heavier duty foundation or concealer (or a thinner foundation and heavier-duty concealer for a "less caked on" look)-- and are still visible from a few feet away or through an unfiltered or unedited photo (and, in some cases, even with filters.)

CONCLUSION

I thought this topic was interesting, dug up some facts, crunched them down, and whipped this post out. Hope it was intriguing to someone else, too.

Thanks for reading~

Enjoy!

Random makeup tips ♡ part 1?

- Understanding what’s in your makeup and skincare. Have you ever wondered why certain primers or moisturizers will make your concealer slip right off? It could be because the ingredients are clashing. Foundations, concealers, primers, sunscreens and moisturizers are typically silicone, water, or oil based. Mixing these different formulas can cause your makeup to pill, separate or slip off.

Silicone based is best for oily skin because it’s basically a built in primer. It’s waterproof, sweat proof, long lasting, and can have some UVB protection (wear sunscreen anyway, though). I would not pair this with dry skin. Make sure to thoroughly remove it or it could worsen acne prone skin. Not all silicones are compatible with water, but none work well with oil.

Water based is great for all skin types! These formulas are usually very light and natural. Best paired with other water based products, avoid oil. Certain silicones may work with water, but others could cause your makeup to slip throughout the day.

Oil based can be very good for giving dry skin moisture and glow, it can also be more viscous and hard to work with. May not work well with oily or acne prone skin. Do not mix with silicone or water based products.

[eva-knits12]

The Best Foundation I found for my skin issues.

Thars Almay Clear Complexion Makeup in Buff. I've been using it for two weeks now, and it's helped clear up my acne. My skin is oily, acne prone, and sensitive. This contains good for you ingredients, and even has aloe in it, and salicylic acid, which treats acne. The shades are dark, so I went down a shade, and it adjusts to my weird skin tone. My skin tone is not exactly light, but not exactly medium. It's actually in between the two.

The bottle has a pump, so you just pump the makeup into your fingers or onto your makeup sponge. No more messy bottle or no more messy messy cap.

Here's what I looked like before I first started it:

As you can see, I was going through a bad flare up of acne. I had acne all over the place, not just in one area. You can also see some redness in my cheeks, forehead and chin from my skin being sensitive. You can even see much of the larger spots The larger spots were redder and more painful than they actually look.

Here's when I started using the makeup:

In the after photos, you can see my acne has looked like it's disappeared. It's not only covered, which can bring more attention to acne. The acne is being treated, which reduced the redness significantly. The larger spots I had are way less noticable.

Both sets of selfies are taken at the same three angles.

[notreallyimportant]

I truly hate women who goes out of their way to use a product not meant for them and then gets mad when it doesn’t work for them.

Like black people in general have all of two sections of 5 shelves in Walmart that have hair products that were made specifically for their hair and maybe a shelf of makeup for our skin tones, and more likely than not it’s locked behind a glass door. But we can’t have shit. And yes I’m talking about the Mielle Rosemary Mint Oil.

“ It’s just hair products”

No it’s not. It doesn’t even work for a white person’s hair because (1) it’s supposed to be left in your hair not washed out and (2) y’all break out when you’re hair is too oily.

Imagine for like five seconds that you have eczema. And there’s only five shelves of lotion for eczema prone skin. You find that one brand that works for you. All of a sudden, some random person without eczema was like “ I heard it’s not too oily, and felt light. But I put it on and I’m starting to have issues with acne” meanwhile all of the lotion you normally use is gone… that is what many black women go through every time a white woman is like “ I heard coconut and turmeric was good for your hair so I went out and bought this coconut and turmeric shampoo and conditioner,but blah, blah”. You get the picture.

Again, when it comes to beauty products made for black people, it’s pretty limited. Whether it’s makeup( because they still lock up darker foundations), or hair care. Even if you go to stores that specifically cater to black hair care, it’s hard to find one when you’re in the minority of the demographic and actually comfortable( you’d be surprised as to how many black hair shops are owned by nonblack people that are hella racist. Some are racist, some aren’t) going into. And even most grocery stores have all of 5 shelves with products that we actually use.

And if you’re a part of that demographic of women that use the product because it actually works for your hair, then I’m not talking about you.

ooohhh i love sharing products! i’m gonna preface this by saying i have very oily, acne prone skin so 😀 and i’m gonna say my skincare n makeup routine bc why not!

1. to cleanse in the am, i use garnier micellar water on a cotton round (i’m always running late/never have time to do a full face wash lol)

2. then, i like to use panoxyl’s oil control moisturizer (has spf 30 which is great, i kill two birds with one stone using a combined moisturizer/spf). if i know i’m going to be in the sun for longer than 30 min, i also apply the skinscience sunscreen (it’s very glowy tho so i’m not positive it’s great for my oily skin lol)

3. i recently purchased the elf power grip primer (the new pink one with niacinamide) and it’s nice! so i’ll use some of that and press it in, don’t rub since it has that tackiness feel to it and you don’t want the product to pill

4. then i’ll either spot conceal if i’m in a big rush w/ the dior forever skin correct, or if i have time, apply charlotte tilbury’s beautiful skin foundation (it’s pretty lightweight which is nice, especially in the summer)

5. for brows, i love the nyx eyebrow pencil. it’s a staple for me, i’ve been using it for years now. for contour, i also recently picked up the elf halo glow contour beauty wand, and it’s a very good dupe for the charlotte tilbury contour wand. dare i say better?

6. for mascara, honestly any drugstore mascara is good. i also like the little mini “travel” sized ones from sephora, since you’re supposed to replace mascara every month anyway. might as well spend $13 on the mini instead of $28 for the full size one since it’s getting tossed at the end of the month regardless!

7. for powder, maybelline fit me (the loose one) is great, and givenchy makes a good loose powder too but it’s $$. setting spray i like urban decay’s all nighter, but i don’t use setting spray every day.

8. at night, i always double cleanse. it is essential. i use an oil cleanser from the dermatology group i belong to, it’s pretty nice. it removes all the mineral spf that’s sitting on top of the skin, as well as makeup. then for cleanser, i like cerave’s foaming facial cleanser, or their acne control cleanser. both are nice.

9. then i use the advanced snail 96 mucin power essence after cleansing, slimy yes but it makes your skin look dewy and glowy. and after that i apply a moisturizer & retinol from the derm group i belong to :) and then eye cream & lash serum!

wowee that’s a lot hahaha sorry for info dumping i just love talking abt products, this was such a fun ask <3

The Science Behind K-Beauty Products: A Deep Dive into Skincare Technology

When we think of Korean beauty, it's easy to get lost in the aesthetic appeal, the rituals, and the vast array of products. But what's truly fascinating about K-beauty is the intricate science underpinning it. In this journey, we'll delve deep into the scientific innovations of K-beauty, supported by trusted references, while highlighting some of the best products offered by Aigoo.

Rooted in Tradition

At the foundation of Korean skincare lies a deep respect for nature and its healing properties. For centuries, natural ingredients such as green tea, ginseng, and rice have been pivotal in skincare. These are not just folklore remedies but are backed by modern scientific studies, revealing their antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and hydrating properties.

Innovative Formulations and Techniques

The magic of K-beauty is its ability to marry age-old wisdom with state-of-the-art technology. For instance, fermentation, an ancient Korean technique, is widely used to break down ingredients into smaller molecules for better absorption. Brands in the industry, like those featured on Aigoo, employ advanced methods to enhance the benefits of traditional ingredients.

Targeted Solutions for Every Skin Concern

One of the reasons K-beauty has won hearts worldwide is its tailored approach. Every skin type and concern, from acne-prone to hyperpigmentation, has a specific solution. This isn't a coincidence but the result of extensive research. Scientific studies back ingredients like snail mucin for repair or centella asiatica for soothing irritated skin.

Skin First, Makeup Second

The K-beauty philosophy revolves around treating the skin as a canvas. This means prioritizing skincare to achieve a healthy base before makeup application. The ethos is grounded in understanding the skin's anatomy and physiology. Hydration, for instance, is crucial because well-hydrated skin functions optimally, leading to fewer issues and a radiant complexion. Dive into Aigoo's moisturisers collection to explore hydration options tailored for various skin types.

Safety and Efficacy

K-beauty products undergo stringent testing standards. Brands are committed to ensuring products are both safe and effective, underpinned by rigorous scientific research. This emphasis on credibility and trust is echoed by Aigoo, which curates only the best, science-backed products for its audience.

The Power of Layering

K-beauty is renowned for its multi-step routines, and there's a science behind it. Each product is formulated to serve a unique purpose, and when applied in a specific sequence, the skin can absorb the maximum benefits from each layer. From essences that prepare the skin to ampoules that deliver concentrated ingredients, there's a method to the layering madness. To get a sense of this meticulous process, one can explore the range of products at Aigoo.

Conclusion: A Symphony of Tradition and Technology

The global admiration for K-beauty is not just about trends or elaborate routines. It's an appreciation for a skincare culture that seamlessly blends centuries-old traditions with advanced scientific research. At the heart of K-beauty lies a dedication to understanding the skin and its needs deeply. As skincare enthusiasts, we at Aigoo invite you to dive into this world where nature, tradition, and science harmoniously converge, offering transformative experiences for your skin.

Here is a question I have: when people criticize an aspect of your appearance (specifically something less under your control, like body weight, shape of boobs, acne or hair texture) what is their goal? Like what do they expect the follow up to be?

You could argue that somewhere inside they have a fucked up perception of the world wherein they believe they are helping you notice something you may not have noticed yourself so that you can try to correct it. Anyone with a normal brain knows that this is not helpful at all, but MAYBE they believe it, right?

Well, the only aspect of my appearance I ever perceived negatively was my acne prone skin. So all my adult life I wore heavy makeup to cover it. However many times the acne was so inflamed it was still noticeable through the makeup. And STILL, many times people commented on it to me. If we actually take to heart that these people do it to help, what the fuck else can I do about it when I'm already wearing heavy layers of foundation? That was when it became clear to me that was never their goal at all. What is the goal then? What the fuck can they possibly expect to achieve from it? The only conclusion I can ever reach is that they do so maliciously, they want to make sure You know They noticed an aspect they perceive negatively. Maybe in an attempt to gain some psychological power over you? I don't know, back on the day I used to swallow a sob and say "yes I know" and then sit as far from them as possible in the situation trying to hide my face as much as possible from everyone.

Now a days my skin is not a problem anymore (thanks isotretinoin). So people comment on other things that I myself don't perceive negatively at all, like my graying hair, small boobs and unshaved armpits. So when any of it is pointed out to me I get to say "thanks for noticing, it's really cute and I love it!" Which turns it against them, now it's they who don't know how to respond and look silly.

Anyway, I still wonder what goes through their mind, how do they justify it internally, to themselves that this is appropriate social behaviour?

Women's Guide to Achieving Beautiful Skin with the Right Face Wash!

Achieving beautiful skin is a goal that every woman desires. While there are various ways to achieve this, the foundation of good skincare lies in choosing the right face wash.  

When it comes to achieving beautiful skin, a proper skincare routine is crucial. One of the most important steps in any skincare routine is cleansing the face. This is where the right face wash comes in. However, with so many options available on the market, it can be overwhelming to choose the right one. In this blog, we will discuss the women's guide to achieving beautiful skin with the right face wash. 

Understand Your Skin Type: 

The first step in choosing the right face wash is to understand your skin type. Women have different skin types - dry, oily, combination, sensitive, or normal. The right face wash for each skin type will vary. 

For dry skin, a hydrating and gentle face wash is ideal, such as those with ingredients like glycerin, hyaluronic acid, or aloe vera. 

For oily skin, a face wash with salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide can help reduce excess oil and prevent breakouts. 

For combination skin, a mild, pH-balanced cleanser that doesn't strip the skin of natural oils is a good choice. 

For sensitive skin, a fragrance-free, hypoallergenic face wash with gentle ingredients like oatmeal or chamomile can help soothe the skin. 

And for normal skin, a mild, non-irritating face wash is suitable. 

Taking care of our skin should be a part of our daily routine. However, finding a suitable face wash that addresses our skin type and concerns can be challenging. Lukewarm glutathione facewash has gained popularity due to its effectiveness on all skin types. 

Read Labels Carefully: 

Once you've identified your skin type, it's time to start reading labels. Look for face washes that are formulated with natural ingredients that are gentle on the skin. Avoid face washes that contain harsh chemicals, fragrances, or alcohol, as these can irritate the skin. 

 Some ingredients to look for in a face wash include: 

Salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide for acne-prone skin 

Glycerin, hyaluronic acid, or aloe vera for dry skin 

Vitamin C or antioxidants for anti-aging benefits 

Tea tree oil or witch hazel for oily skin 

Chamomile or oatmeal for sensitive skin 

Lukewarm Facewash incorporates the unique ingredient, glutathione, which shields the skin from harm caused by toxins, UV rays, and other environmental elements. This face wash blends glutathione's antioxidant properties with organic ingredients such as Turmeric, vitamin C, and vitamin E. As a result, it brightens the skin tone, minimizes irritation, and effectively removes impurities. 

Consider Your Lifestyle : 

Another factor to consider when choosing the right face wash is your lifestyle. If you're someone who wears a lot of makeup, you'll need a face wash that can effectively remove all traces of makeup without stripping your skin of its natural oils. If you exercise regularly, a face wash that can remove sweat and impurities is ideal. 

 If you live in a city with high pollution levels, a face wash with antioxidants can help protect your skin from damage caused by environmental pollutants. 

 Lukewarm Glutathione Facewash is a gentle and effective cleanser suitable for all skin types. It works by removing dead skin cells, promoting overall skin health and appearance, and is gentle enough for delicate skin. If you're considering incorporating a new exfoliant into your beauty routine, try lukewarm glutathione facewash for consistent and excellent results. 

 In conclusion, achieving beautiful skin requires a consistent skincare routine, and the right face wash plays a significant role in that routine. By understanding your skin type, reading labels carefully, and considering your lifestyle, you can choose a face wash that is perfect for your needs. Remember to be patient and give your skin time to adjust to a new product before expecting results. With the right face wash, you can achieve healthy, glowing, and beautiful skin.
