Skinfood from South Korea

Skinfood is a brand of skin care and make up from South Korea. As I understood from the write ups this brand was created to cater to young women. Those who are in high school and college with limited budget. So it is supposed to be an affordable line of cosmetics. It has one shop in Dubai Festival City which I haven't visited yet but based on their prices via website I would not label it as affordable. I'd call it expensive. All my Skinfood items, I got it from an online seller from Instagram. The prices are much lower than the shop in Dubai but still in the expensive side. But I ain't complaining or ranting about the prices. Merely sharing the information. If price is not an issue then I'd say I'm almost happy with Skinfood products.

'Almost' happy as I haven't found products yet that works 100%. Right now my concern is how to clear my nose from whiteheads. For good. What is happening is whenever I clean my face and use a nose strips there will still be some left. Then the next day instead of seeing them lessening they just seem to be procreating. In spite of the technology and thousand products in the market still there is no solution for this. I even tried using Benzoyl Peroxide which made me looks like a descendant of Rudolf with an asphalt nose. Skinfood Peach Sake Pore Serum is able to control the oil but only for a few hours. Skinfood Peach Sake Toner is able to matte the nose upon cleaning at night but then it lasts for at least an hour or so only. Premium price to pay for a few hours of being oil free.

Skinfood Peach Sake BB Cream ~ I want to write a separate post about it as soon as I can but to just show photos and swatch only. It has been only a year since I started using BB creams so I can't say that I have much extensive experience about this. But so far I am satisfied with what Skinfood BB Cream can give. Does not help me with whiteheads but does not aggravate it either. So I am fine with that.

Skinfood Peach Sake Silky Finish Powder ~ I haven't gotten around in using it on daily basis but my initial impression was good. It smells good. It is really translucent. This requires another post too. But I think this is a promising product. That's all for now and thank you for visiting my page.

According to Wikipedia and it's website the company has been around since 1957. And even without reading it is written in front of their products like this Skinfood Peach Pore Sake Serum as can be seen in the photos below:

Skinfood is a South Korean brand of Skin Care and Beauty Products. Their selling point is their products are made of natural ingredients as well as fruits and vegetables. As far as I know they have a shop in Dubai, UAE. But I never visited it even once. As I can see in their website that the prices are quite high compared to the online seller in Instagram.

The only thing that's oily in my face is my nose. So every morning and sometimes at night I put a little amount only on that area. Means this bottle will last for me for a very long time. Thus wouldn't hurt my pocket that much. I know this has Alcohol which I think is really a must in all serums so I don't mind anymore. As long as I am not feeling a stinging sensation. It helps in controlling the oiliness even for just a few hours. And anyway I haven't really found a product that can control the oil for the whole day.

This is one of the products I would definitely stick to and repurchase. Will just update this post when I get the time to take more photos to share or any change that might happen along the way while I am using it. Till then..
