I was lucky enough to receive the full PR package from COSRX, and I’ve been testing everything out for the past few months. Here’s my honest first impression.

• Alpha Arbutin Serum

This serum has become my go-to for brightening. The formula is lightweight, hydrating, and absorbs quickly. It helps even out my skin tone without any irritation, and the glow it gives is soft and natural and not shiny, just healthy. Perfect for dull and tired skin.


• Vitamin E Invisible Sunscreen

One word: effortless. This sunscreen melts into the skin like a moisturizer, with zero white cast and a smooth, silky finish. I love how breathable it feels, even on warmer days. It works perfectly under makeup and gives me a subtle glow without any greasiness.

PS: it could be toooooo dewy for oily skin.

• Peptide Collagen Eye Patch

These eye patches feel incredibly soothing, especially when I keep them in the fridge. They’re infused with peptides and collagen, and help de-puff and hydrate my under eyes when I need a little extra care. I use them in the morning before makeup or at night as a calming step. 

Bonus: they actually stay in place.


• 6 Peptide Booster Serum Toner

This one surprised me the most. It’s technically a toner, but feels like a serum … rich, yet lightweight. It hydrates deeply and preps my skin beautifully for everything that comes after. The peptides help with elasticity and softness, and I’ve noticed my skin feeling more balanced overall.


Final Thoughts

COSRX really nailed the balance between gentle and effective. Every product feels thoughtful, skin-friendly, and easy to use,  especially if you’re someone who loves glow!!

Let me introduce you to Ulooin, my current go-to for calm, hydrated, and radiant skin.

If my skin has been looking extra glowy lately, this is the secret.
And yes, it really is that good ✨



🌿 What is Ulooin?

Ulooin is a Korean skincare brand known for deep healing and a natural glow-from-within effect.
Its hero ingredient is PDRN, also known as salmon DNA, which supports skin regeneration, improves elasticity, and helps brighten dull skin.

The formulas feel professional, yet gentle. Perfect for sensitive, acne-prone, or dry skin types like mine.

🧴 The 3-Step Routine I Tried

1️⃣ PDRN Glass Skin Serum

✔ 10ppm Salmon DNA (PDRN)
✔ Panthenol to soothe, Bakuchiol to improve skin texture
✔ Lightweight and fast-absorbing with no stickiness

It’s the first step I use after cleansing. My skin instantly feels calm and fresh.


2️⃣ PDRN Glass Skin Cream

✔ Bakuchiol boosts collagen and softens fine lines
✔ Hydration complex for a plump, dewy finish
✔ Creamy but never greasy

I apply this right after the serum to lock in the glow. It melts beautifully into the skin and gives that smooth, glass-like finish.


3️⃣ Three Times Changing Cream

✔ Ceramide to strengthen the skin barrier
✔ Chamomile and panthenol to soothe irritation
✔ Unique texture that transforms from gel to water

This one’s perfect for sensitive or irritated skin. I love using it at night when my skin needs extra comfort. By morning, my skin feels soft and balanced.

💎 Glass Skin Unlocked: My Glowing Routine with Ulooin ✨

Glowy lips, good vibes, and one tiny tube I now take everywhere

I’ll be the first to admit it. I have too many lip products. Glosses, balms, stains, tints… you name it, it’s rolling around in my bag somewhere. But something about LAKA’s lip tint caught my eye. Maybe it was the sleek packaging, or the fact that LAKA never tries too hard but always delivers.

What Makes It Different?

You know when a lip product says it’s a tint, but actually feels more like paint? This is not that. LAKA’s lip tint glides on like a gel-water hybrid and dries down to this really natural, blurred finish that makes you look alive but not overly done.

It’s buildable too. One swipe for that “just-bitten” look. Two or three if you want it bolder. Either way, it somehow never feels thick or dry. I’ve worn it on bare lips, over balm, and even dabbed a little on my cheeks when I forgot blush. It worked. I felt clever.

The Shade That Won Me Over

Honestly, I had a hard time choosing. LAKA’s shade names are simple and cool, and the tones lean neutral, which I love. I went with a dusty rose color that looked kind of “meh” in the tube, but on the lips? Game-changer. It gave me this soft, muted pop of color that pulled my whole face together without looking like I tried too hard.

It’s the kind of shade that works whether you’re wearing jeans and a hoodie or pretending to be a responsible adult in a blazer.

Wear Test: A Day in the Life of My Lips

Here’s the truth. It doesn’t survive a greasy lunch. But honestly? Most lip tints don’t. What it does do is fade nicely, which I actually prefer. No weird patchiness, no scary outer-ring situation. Even when it starts to disappear, it leaves a gentle stain behind that still looks cute.

It’s not transfer-proof, and it won’t last through a three-course meal, but for coffee runs, Zoom calls, or just feeling a little prettier while cleaning your room, it holds up really well.

Plus, it’s one of the few tints I’ve tried that doesn’t dry out my lips or highlight every little crack. I didn’t even need to exfoliate before using it, which is saying something.

What Could Be Better

If I had to nitpick — and I always do — I’d say the applicator could be a bit more precise. It’s totally fine for quick swipes, but if you like super crisp edges or have thinner lips, you might need to clean up with a finger or brush.

Also, some of the shades look very similar once applied, so it’s worth swatching if you can before you buy. If you’re deciding between two pinks, chances are you don’t need both.

Lastly, this isn’t the kind of tint that’s going to last through a night out or a hotpot dinner. It’s more of a pretty, everyday pick than a high-stakes lipstick.

Final Verdict: Low Effort, High Reward

If you’re into easy, wearable makeup that makes you feel pulled together without fuss, LAKA’s lip tint is a must-try. It’s the kind of product you throw in your bag and end up reapplying just because it feels nice, not because you need to.

It’s not perfect. But it’s one of those things that fits so seamlessly into your day, you kind of forget what you did without it. And honestly? That’s the kind of beauty product I trust the most.

Now if you’ll excuse me, I have three other shades in my cart. No regrets.

I Tried LAKA’s Lip Tint and Here’s the Whole Truth

Hi,

How do I make a review of a product or a brand that’s not on the list yet?

Help with review

Now, a few things that could be better. If you have super oily skin like me, you might need to blot once or twice throughout the day. Also, I wish it lasted just a little longer without touch-ups. And while I love a natural finish, I can see some people wanting more coverage than this gives.

Overall, it’s one of those products I find myself reaching for almost without thinking. Not perfect, but definitely a favorite in my routine.

Let’s start with the good stuff. The texture is super light and buildable, which makes it perfect for everyday use. It blends like a dream and doesn’t cake up, even after a full day out. Plus, the shade range actually works for different skin tones, which is rare. It also feels really breathable, which my skin appreciates a lot.

The packaging? So cute. It’s compact, easy to carry around, and has that minimal vibe that just makes me happy whenever I take it out of my bag.

Minimal Visible Results: After weeks of use, no significant changes in skin texture or brightness. felt more like a basic hydrating toner. Price vs. Performance: Slightly overpriced for what it does—there are more affordable toners with similar effects. No Soothing Effect on Breakouts: Didn’t help much with calming inflammation or acne as expected from propolis-based products.
	May Not Suit Oily Skin: On humid days, it felt slightly heavy or tacky on oilier areas of the face.


Hydrating & Nourishing: The toner delivers a nice layer of moisture and gives the skin a subtle glow, thanks to its high content of propolis extract. Alcohol-free and suitable for sensitive skin; it doesn’t sting or cause irritation.
	Good for Layering: Lightweight texture makes it easy to layer or use with other skincare products.
Non-Sticky Finish: Despite being nourishing, it absorbs relatively quickly without feeling greasy.

If I had to mention a downside…
	•	Oily skin types might find the finish a bit too dewy, especially in hot or humid weather.
	•	The dewy texture might not be ideal if you prefer a fully matte or powdery finish.
	•	And since it’s a chemical sunscreen, it may not suit those who prefer mineral-only filters.

My Honest Favorite. I’ve tried so many sunscreens over the years, but this one from COSRX might be the one I’ve been searching for all along.
It’s lightweight, truly invisible, and gives my skin a healthy, radiant finish without leaving any white cast or stickiness.

If applied only to the skin, the scent tends to fade a bit faster than I’d like, layering it with lotion or spraying onto clothing helps. I also think those who prefer extremely subtle or natural scents might find White Rain slightly too polished or perfumed at first spray.

I’ve recently added the Skybottle Hair & Body Mist to my daily routine, and it’s been such a lovely discovery.

What stands out the most is the fragrance.
I chose White Rain, and it’s beautifully subtle, clean, airy, and comforting. It reminds me of soft linen, or the kind of effortless elegance you’d imagine in a minimalist perfume ad. It lingers delicately, especially on fabric and hair, without ever becoming overwhelming.

The texture is light, almost weightless, and it dries quickly without leaving any residue. I’ve used it both after showering and as a mid-day refresh and it adds a soft, pleasant presence without trying too hard.

 Bad Points (from my experience)
	•	Honestly, I didn’t enjoy the texture. it’s a bit slimy, and while some people love that, I found it off-putting.
	•	No visible difference: My skin didn’t look more hydrated, glowy, or healed, even after regular use.
	•	It felt like I was applying an extra step without getting anything back in return.
	•	A bit overhyped for my skin, maybe it works wonders for others, but for me, it was just… meh.

Good Points (from my experience)
	•	It did feel lightweight on my skin, and it didn’t cause any breakouts, which is always a win.
	•	I appreciated that it absorbed fairly quickly, especially compared to other sticky products.
	•	It layers well under other products, so I had no problem including it in my routine.
