RESULTS - If you can only use products from one Korean skincare brand, which one would it be?

Which one or which two, I know it's hard to decide! ☺️

I'm going to tally the results in the end and share which brands had the most votes! 😍

Korean skincare is doing so well in the global scene! I'm happy for these brands as they have taken skincare to the next level esp with their ingredients like propolis, artemesia, mugwort, etc

Feel free to share other non-Korean skincare brands if you don't have a Korean brand fave! ☺️

My personal faves are Pyunkang Yul and Etude's Soon Jung line 🤩 I am so impressed with the gentleness and effectiveness of their products.

If you can only use products from one Korean skincare brand, which one would it be?

I love seeing the actual products laid out, share yours!

Wanna share a shelfie?

What product do you love and would willingly spend on even if it's expensive? The ones where dupes just don't compare? 😆

Mine would be YTTP adaptogen cream. Just sooo good and I haven't found anything close to similar to the formulation. Another one is Herbivore Pink Cloud. I have never had a cleanser as hydrating as that one!

Would love to read about yours!

What expensive products are worth it for you?

I have sensitive skin and get rashes when I use heavily fragranced haircare products. My hair is currently super dry and wiry and I still haven’t found my holy grail shampoo and conditioner too.

What shampoo, conditioners, hair oils or hair serums do you use? 

I use Monday and Attitude at the moment.

Do you wish Picky eventually adds haircare products too?

- It is quite expensive. I might stick with cheaper dupes. The Secret Key essence works similarly too

+ Beautifully designed. I love minimalist looks
+ Soothing, hydrating, and really good for giving you that plump natural glow
+ It&#39;s a plus that it&#39;s unscented and well-received by sensitive skin

- This is a small tube so could be kinda expensive but definitely worth it

+ The Soon Jung line hasn&#39;t disappointed me so far, all the products I have tried are so good for sensitive skin
+ I use this from time to time when my skin is super dry or irritated
+ It works so well in restoring my skin to its natural state
+ It&#39;s rich in texture but is not uncomfortable on the skin, overall a good barrier repair cream

+ This is one of my favourite toners
+ It has ceramides and it does what it claims to do. It is moisturizing and soothing, with no added fluff
+ The texture is milky and light
+ The packaging is HUGE so it lasts a while
+ It&#39;s definitely worth it

- Price is expensive.
- It&#39;s not easily available as I live in Canada and it ships from the US.

+ My first holy grail experience. I have eczema, clogged pores, and sensitive skin, so it&#39;s difficult to find products that won&#39;t irritate my skin further or are effective enough to actually work without being too harsh. This is one of those! I am so grateful for Paula&#39;s Choice products. This is my favourite product of theirs so far. This really changed my skin texture for the better.

- People living in humid climates might find this too greasy. It&#39;s definitely amazing for colder climates
- People who don&#39;t like a sheer finish will also not like this
- It&#39;s not easily available in locations outside USA

+ I found another holy grail sunscreen. Love that there are more and more options out there for dry skin people like me
+ If you are looking for a dewy glass skin finish, THIS is what you&#39;re looking for
+ Doesn&#39;t leave a white cast
+ No fragrance
+ Doesn&#39;t pill
+ Doesn&#39;t sting
+ Water-resistant
+ Very moisturizing 
+ Has aloe barbadensis leaf juice, carrot seed oil, avocado oil, jojoba seed oil, cacao seed butter, tocopherol = holy grail for dry and sensitive skin!
+ I have eczema and would recommend this
