My Skin Story – Catherine

Skin Type: Mature
Skin Goals: Minimize the appearance of lines, wrinkles, age spots, and pigmentation.
Fun Fact: I prefer a simple skincare routine and love using face masks.

My Skincare Journey

Growing up in 1970s Australia, sun protection wasn't emphasized, and we often sunbathed without sunscreen. Over the years, this led to sun spots, wrinkles, and pigmentation. After discovering Korean Beauty products, I've seen significant improvements in my skin's texture and tone.

Morning Skincare Routine

1. Cleanser:
   Subi Bare Skin Balm
   A gentle balm cleanser that effectively removes impurities without stripping the skin.

2. Toner:
   Jelly Ko Dewy Glaze Toner
   This 2-in-1 essence toner hydrates and preps the skin for the next steps in my routine.

3. Moisturizer:
   Jelly Ko Bubble Tea Steam Cream
   A nourishing cream that leaves my skin feeling soft and plump. This Korean moisturiser is absolutely perfect for my mature skin. 

4. BB Cream:
   Missha M Perfect Cover BB Cream – Shade 23
   Provides excellent coverage for pigmentation while offering skincare benefits.

Evening Skincare Routine

1. Cleanser:
   Subi Bare Skin Balm
   I use this balm again in the evening to remove makeup and impurities.

2. Toner:
   Jelly Ko Dewy Glaze Toner
   Reapplying this toner at night in light layers helps to hydrate and soothe my skin before bed.

3. Sleeping Mask:
   Jelly Ko Cherry Blossom Sleeping Mask
   This overnight mask works wonders, leaving my skin refreshed and glowing in the morning.

Why I Love Korean Beauty Products

Korean skincare products have transformed my skin. They're gentle, effective, and incorporate innovative ingredients like Beta glucan alongside tried and tested favourites like niacinamide and hyaluronic acid. I've seen noticeable improvements in my skin's texture and tone.

My Top Korean Beauty Finds

I am a regular visitor to Seoul and love seeing what the companies are coming up with. The Korean Government often invites me to the K-Beauty Expo as part of the STYLE STORY team and that's how I've ended up finding quite a few of my favourite new Korean skin care finds.
