I had good experiences with most of Jumiso products namely Jumiso Super Soothing Cica & Aloe Serum, Jumiso Waterfull Hyaluronic Acid Serum, Jumiso Waterfull Hyaluronic Acid Toner and Jumiso All Day Vitamin Serums so I am glad to try their popular Snail Mucin 88 Peptide Facial Cream although I am not a fan of snail creams due to its stretchy texture based on my previous experience with The Skin House Vita Snail Cream

This facial cream was provided to me, as part of a Stylekorean beauty box collaboration with no obligations to review it. 

Snail mucin, also known as snail secretion filtrate, has become one of the most popular ingredients in Korean skincare. Rich in hyaluronic acid, glycoproteins, peptides, zinc, and glycolic acid, snail mucin is prized for its ability to deeply hydrate, repair, and rejuvenate the skin.

When used in moisturizers, snail mucin helps to lock in moisture, improve skin elasticity, and promote cell regeneration, making it a favorite for those looking to achieve a smooth, radiant complexion. It’s especially beneficial for dull, dehydrated, or acne-prone skin, as it helps soothe irritation, fade scars, and restore a healthy glow.

[ Review ] Olaplex No. 9 Bond Protector Nourishing Hair Serum

 

Product Description

Olaplex No. 9 Bond Protector Nourishing Hair Serum is an ultra-lightweight, heat-protective hair styling serum that creates a satin shine and lasting style retention while reducing tangles and static. Plus, it provides immediate pollution protection. Pollutants can bind to hair and cause free radical damage that affects the appearance of hair health.

Benefits :

-Improves style retention and reduces tangles and static

-Protects color and provides satin shine

-450ºF/232ºC heat protection

I have previously emptied Olaplex Intensive Bond Building Hair Treatment No. 0 and Olaplex No.7 Bonding Oil which served different needs to Olaplex No. 9 Bond Protector Nourishing Hair Serum which I purchased during a sale.

When it comes to hair care, most of us focus on shampoos and conditioners but the real game-changer often comes after you step out of the shower. That’s where leave-in serums come in. Lightweight yet powerful, these multitasking formulas are designed to stay on your hair, providing continuous nourishment, protection, and shine throughout the day. 

Unlike rinse-off treatments, a leave-in serum works behind the scenes to smooth frizz, detangle knots, seal split ends, and shield hair from heat and humidity all without weighing it down.

[ Review ] Cell Fusion C Laser UV Sunscreen

 

Product Description

Cell Fusion C Laser UV Sunscreen SPF50+ PA++++ is a hypoallergenic physical sun protector that offers effective UV protection with broad spectrum SPF50+ PA++++. It offers UV aging care to the skin by improving skin elasticity and skin moisture barrier. Features a lightweight and non-greasy formula that adheres on the skin seamlessly without caking and leaving a white cast. Hypoallergenic test completed for the sensitive skin.

I first came across this sunscreen in Tangs Singapore but wasn't intrigued enough to purchase it, however when I was in Korea Olive Young last year, the packaging that states it has been the #1 sunscreen at Olive Young and a proud winner in the Sunscreen Category at Olive Young Awards for 6 years in a row made me purchase it instantly. 

Established in 2001, Cell Fusion C is a clinic-based skin care brand based in South Korea that originally provided skin solutions to healthcare providers. The brand eventually expanded its reach to general consumers by developing research-backed solutions for various skin concerns, like pH imbalance in skin. Cell Fusion C is widely known for creating patented ingredients, such as the NEO-CMS® that strengthens the skin barrier. All Cell Fusion C products are clinically tested and proven to be safe to use on sensitive skin.

Finding a sunscreen that offers both strong UV protection and a comfortable finish can be quite a challenge, especially for those with combination or sensitive skin. That’s where hybrid sunscreens come in, combining the best of both worlds with chemical and mineral filters to provide broad-spectrum protection while maintaining a lightweight, blendable texture.

Read below for an in-depth review, after emptying my last 2 sunscreens namely N'Pure Cica Beat The Sun SPF 50+ PA++++ and Foretderm Derma Relief Vegan Sunscreen SPF50+ PA++++ 

[ Review ] Goodal Vita-C Dark Spot Care Serum

 

Product Description

Goodal Green Tangerine Vita-C Dark Spot Care Serum is a gentle yet powerful brightening serum crafted with 70% fresh green tangerine extract, niacinamide and arbutin. Green tangerines, known to contain 10 times more vitamin C than lemons, deliver potent antioxidants that fade dark spots, target post-acne hyperpigmentation, and help prevent new blemishes from surfacing.

Unlike harsh vitamin C serums, this formula is hydrates, nourishes, and revitalizes your complexion without irritation. Infused with Centella Asiatica (Tiger Grass), it also calms sensitivity, strengthens the skin barrier, and locks in long-lasting moisture.

Each green tangerine is organically grown using fermented soybeans as natural fertilizer and hand-picked during a rare four-week harvest in July, when vitamin C levels peak. The result is a fresh, fruit-powered serum that restores radiance and reveals a clear, glowing complexion.

I was lucky enough to win the Goodal Vita-C Dark Spot Care Serum from Goodal's Instagram giveaway last year, and I’m extra excited to try it out especially since it’s one of the brand’s bestsellers.

Hailing from Korea, Goodal is an award-winning, global skincare brand available in over 20 countries. While the company has expanded its scientific research and development, it remains rooted in its philosophy of harnessing nature’s goodness through ethical, results-driven formulas for all.

A brightening serum is often the star of any skincare routine, especially for those seeking a radiant, even-toned complexion. Packed with ingredients that target dullness, dark spots, and uneven skin texture, these serums work to restore skin’s natural glow and luminosity. 

Among the many brightening agents available, Vitamin C stands out as one of the most trusted and researched ingredients, known for its ability to neutralize free radicals, boost collagen production, and reduce pigmentation. Lightweight and easily absorbed, a good vitamin C serum not only helps revive tired-looking skin but also layers well under moisturizer and sunscreen, making it a versatile daily essential.

[ Review ] Nature's Organic Sense Anti Hair Loss Shampoo

 

Product Decription

Nature's Organic Sense Anti Hair Loss Shampoo is enriched with organic chamomile flower extract, green tea extract, and citric acid. Specifically formulated to combat hair loss, this gentle shampoo not only cleanses delicately but also stimulates oxygenation and activity in the hair bulbs. It helps maintain a stable hydrolipidic balance and enhances the exchange of natural nutrients, ultimately fortifying weak hair for a healthier, glossier appearance. This formula is crafted without parabens, colorants, SLS, SLES, or allergen-containing fragrances. Plus, it's infused with organic extracts for a more natural touch.

I received a 50ml travel-sized bottle of Nature's Organic Sense Anti Hair Loss Shampoo as part of a hair package and decided to give it a try after returning from Perth. While my hair texture felt fairly good during the trip, I still experienced noticeable shedding, especially when blow-drying.

Hair loss shampoos are specially formulated to go beyond basic cleansing. Unlike regular shampoos, they often contain active ingredients such as biotin, caffeine, niacinamide, or herbal extracts that help strengthen weakened strands, improve scalp circulation, and reduce breakage. Many are also designed to nourish hair follicles and balance scalp health, creating the right conditions for stronger, thicker, and more resilient hair over time.

Direction: Apply to wet hair, massage and distribute evenly. Rinse thoroughly.

During the wash, the shampoo delivered a cooling, tingling sensation on my scalp that felt both refreshing and invigorating. It doesn't lather much, and there isn't much foam, so it may not suitable for one who prefers a foamy hair shampoo.

I was happy to see no strands shedding during rinsing, though some still fell out while blow-drying. After use, my hair felt thoroughly cleansed, fresh, soft, and bouncy. Overall, it provided a soothing scalp experience and a clean finish, making it a nice step in my routine compared to regular shampoos.

[ Review ] Sabon Delicate Jasmine Body Scrub

 

Product Description

Boasting a unique blend of mineral-rich Dead Sea salts and 3 organic botanical oils (Sweet Almond, Argan, and Jojoba), Sabon exfoliating scrubs are expertly crafted to remove dead skin cells, unclog pores, and promote natural skin renewal with the proven power of gentle exfoliation and intense nourishment from the first use.

Our skin naturally sheds dead cells every day, but as we age or when skin turnover slows, buildup can leave the surface feeling rough, dull, and uneven. That’s where body scrubs come in. Designed as a form of physical exfoliation, body scrubs typically use particles such as sugar, salt, coffee grounds, or microcrystalline powders to buff away dead skin cells. 

Many modern formulations go beyond simple exfoliation, combining nourishing oils, humectants like glycerin, and soothing botanicals to leave the skin soft, hydrated, and radiant. Regular use not only helps to smooth skin texture but can also improve the absorption of subsequent body care products, such as lotions or serums.

After emptying Sabon Green Rose Body Scrub, it was time to try out the Delicate Jasmine variant, which I purchased during a sale. 

I didn't like the Delicate Jasmine hand cream when I tried it back in 2019 but was pleasantly surprised that the scent was subtle in the body scrub. 

Top notes: Bergamot | Middle notes: Ylang-ylang, Jasmine, Rose, Lily of the Valley | Base notes: Vanilla, Musk

Housed in a similar charming glass jar with a metal cap and rustic green paper detailing like Sabon Green Rose Body Scrub, the mixture of salt and oils makes it a lovely soft scrub with a hint of abrasion ( may not be ideal for sensitive skin types ) that left my body soft and smooth. 

The key ingredients are....

Magnesium : Soothing and healing, improves skin barrier function, boosts hydration levels, and enhances skin metabolism.

Potassium : Natural moisturizer with antibacterial powers.

Organic Sweet Almond Oil : Rice in Vitamin A and essential fatty acids. Soften and smooth effect on the skin.

Organic Argan Oil : Rich in Vitamin E and essential Fatty Acids. Nourishes, fortifies and repairs the skin

Organic Jojoba Oil : Promotes skin-soothing. Boost skin hydration.

Maris Sal/Sea Salt, Isopropyl Myristate, Parfum/Fragrance, Ricinus Communis (Castor) Seed Oil, Pentylene Glycol, Benzotriazolyl Dodecyl p-Cresol, Aqua/Water/Eau, Tocopheryl Acetate, Methylpropanediol, Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis (Sweet Almond) Oil, Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil, Argania Spinosa (Argan) Kernel Oil, CI 19140/Yellow 5, CI 15985/Yellow 6, Linalool, Citronellol, Geraniol, Limonene.

[ Review ] Dr. Satin Caviar Vivify Collagen Mask

 

Product Description

Formulated with small-molecule collagen for better absorption, Dr. Satin Caviar Vivify Collagen Mask helps support the skin’s natural collagen production while replenishing moisture. It delivers deep hydration to revitalize tired skin and enhances firmness for a lifted, youthful-looking appearance with a radiant glow.

I first came across this mask while browsing for For Beloved sheet masks at Watsons in Taipei. The promoter enthusiastically recommended the local brand Dr. Satin, even suggesting it was better than For Beloved Girl masks though she did note that For Beloved One still holds the top spot.

Collagen is one of the key proteins that keeps our skin smooth, plump, and firm. As we age, our natural collagen levels gradually decline, leading to fine lines, dryness, and loss of elasticity. Sheet masks infused with collagen or collagen-boosting ingredients are designed to give the skin an instant surge of hydration while supporting its natural repair process. They act as a quick at-home treatment, helping to restore suppleness, improve skin texture, and enhance radiance in just one application.
