Question of the Week - What's Your Number 1 Tip for Holiday Skincare?
- Decant your regular skincare products into little mini bottles and take them with you.
- This is so much easier than travelling with lots of different, heavy glass jars and things that might leak.
- I don't recommend trying a whole bunch of products while you're away or relying on a samples of stuff you've never tried before because this could lead to irritation.
- Another staple in my holiday skincare bag is a powder cleanser, because they are ultra lightweight, not subject to TSA restrictions and don't leak.

New Kbeauty Reviews on STYLE STORY
Jelly Ko Cinnamon Toast Sugar Scrub Foam (100g)
“This is a three-in-one product! It cleanses, exfoliates and brightens dull skin which I absolutely love! Perfect for me because I have dull and textured skin which gets dirty easily. There isn't too much of a scent but it's got a really subtle sweet scent. I didn't expect this sugar scrub foam to foam up so much! The moment the scrub hit my face, it became foam almost immediately! My skin is left feeling refreshed and smooth without any irritation. Don't forget to use this product on your face and neck, not just your face like me. Jelly Ko has such interesting concepts for their products and now I'm craving for cinnamon toast!”
“I have not used this product long but really love how its not sticky and it feels light. Loved it so much that I bought another bottle during Black Friday sale.”
