Beauty of Joseon Revive eye serum : Ginseng + Retinal, 30ml, 1fl.oz.

Product Information

We tested 27 different formulas to see which would be the best option for mature skin, ultimately landing on the StriVectin Peptight 360 Tightening Eye Serum after being especially impressed with the results. After using this formula regularly over the course of a few weeks, our tester found that the fine lines and wrinkles around her eyes appeared less noticeable and her skin also felt brighter, firmer, and less puffy. It is known to promote hydration (moisturization effect) of the skin. It helps to protect the skin from external stimuli by retaining moisture deep in the skin for a long time. In addition, snail mucin is repairing scars and improving skin elasticity. The fermented bean part explains the texture – it’s really gooey and stringy, a lot like snail essence. It’s reminiscent of the stringiness of natto (edible Japanese soybeans).

I found this one very slightly heavier and richer than the Beauty of Joseon sunscreen, so I think this is more suitable if your skin is drier. I also found it more hydrating and slightly lighter than the Isntree one. Initially I was a bit weary of Cosrx Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence, because of animal welfare and, well… snail slime?!? But it is such a gentle, hydrating and (for me) healing product, that I keep using it every day still. And apparently the snails are not harmed. Round Lab Birch Juice Moisturizing Sun Cream SPF 50+ PA++++ has been hyped up so much – it was in both Soo Beauty and EuniUnni‘s top lists of 2021, Bonnie Garner of Beauty Alley’s comprehensive sunscreen roundup, Sugar Peaches Loves, and Alice in the Rabbit Hole. The ingredients within an eye serum will determine if it’s a good fit or not,” says Dr. Jacobs. He recommends looking for highly moisturizing and antioxidant-rich ingredients as these are a good sign that the serum will improve the appearance of the under-eye area, since they can provide deep hydration and a brightening effect to dark circles. But in general, this is a very popular product that works well for a lot of people and it’s a great first product if you’re dipping your toes into Korean skincare. Pyunkang Yul Essence TonerIt features rice bran, ginseng and niacinamide which are all great for hydrating skin, with some line smoothing, brightening effects as well. There are some really light oils in there (squalane and hydrogenated polydecene, which is similar to mineral oil). It’s fragrance-free, which is rare for a cream in a jar (especially a nice jar!). Just like you might have a hydrating serum and a moisturizer in your routine, eye serums and eye creams may have similar benefits, but provided in different ways. “Eye serums often have ingredients that are meant for faster absorption like caffeine, retinol, vitamin C, et cetera,” says Dr. Lal. He adds, “They are formulated to be more concentrated and for more elegant application. Creams may have the same ingredients but their vehicle often allows for slower absorption and more moisturization.”

Active ingredients-wise, it has the same core formula as the other chemical Kolmar sunscreens that have been super popular over the last couple years, including the Beauty of Joseon, Isntree, Skin1004 and Benton sunscreens I’ve reviewed before. He also recommends vitamin C for those wanting to brighten the skin and reduce hyperpigmentation. And if you notice that your under eye area looks hollow, hyaluronic acid helps plump up the skin.

While most eye serums come in a pump bottle for sanitation and precise dosage, others come in a rollerball and a tube with a metal tip. The coldness of the applicator will instantly depuff and soothe any redness in the skin, especially if you keep the product in the fridge. So if your goal is to depuff tired eyes, look for a serum with a rollerball or metal tip. Depending on the serum and your needs, you might want to apply the product in the morning, night, or both. If you are looking to depuff and brighten your eyes with caffeine and/or vitamin C, it's best to apply the serum in the morning. Known for its antioxidants benefits, vitamin C also helps fight off damage from free radicals and sun exposure, so it's good to have a layer on during the day. Aside from hydration, this product is also known for brightening skin tone, helping with breakouts and irritation, and there’s some talk of it being good for anti-aging. It’s hard to pin any of this down to a specific substance in the snail essence, but it does have a lot of antioxidants, peptides, antimicrobial compounds, glycolic acid. Există două tipuri de vitamina A utilizate ca ingrediente cosmetice, retinolul și retinalul. Sarcina noastră cea mai importantă a fost să obținem stabilitatea ingredientelor și, în același timp, să reducem iritația pielii. Sometimes I have some doubts about whether all the retinal makes it out of some encapsulation systems. But I don’t think it’s a big issue for cyclodextrin (the main system used in skincare products with retinal), or liposomes, which is what Beauty of Joseon uses. The retinal is at 0.02% which is a low-to-medium concentration.

This is just a solid product that captures a lot of the reasons people gravitate towards Korean skincare: Când ne lipsește proteina care oferă elasticitate stratului dermic al pielii, colagenul și acidul hialuronic scad, lucru ce provoacă apariția ridurilor. Beauty of Joseon a creat un ser pentru ochi care ajută la ameliorarea ridurilor, combinând extractul de ginseng și retinalul.

They’re SPF 50+ and PA++++, which is as high as the rating system goes in Korea. They don’t leave a white cast unless your skin is quite dark (the whiteness probably comes from the MBBT UV filter, which is a chemical sunscreen but it’s in particulate form which scatters some visible light). Vichy Mineral 89 Eye Serum with Caffeine and Hyaluronic Acid: If you’re shopping for a drugstore eye serum that can de-puff and hydrate the skin, we recommend the Vichy Mineral 89 Eye Serum with Caffeine and Hyaluronic Acid. During testing, we found that we needed more time to truly see some of its results as we didn’t experience its brightening claims. But thanks to its deeply nourishing and hydrating formula — which features hyaluronic acid for attracting moisture to the skin — we think it’s worth mentioning because it provides instant hydration and helps soften and soothe the skin under the eyes. Obviously snail extract is not vegan. From my understanding, the process of extracting the mucin for Cosrx products doesn’t hurt the snails – they crawl over textured material that collects the mucin in a dark room, and apparently the highest quality mucin is collected when the snails aren’t stressed.

So where does our current molecule, Retinal, akaRetinaldehyde fit into the family (btw, here is a nice visual family tree about who is who)? Remember that retinol needed two conversion steps to become retinoic acid? Yes, you are right, Retinal is the intermediate step betweenretinoic acid and retinol, meaning it needs only one conversion step to become active in the skin. If we go with our royal familyanalogy, Retinal is Prince William, directly next in line to the throne. A/ We recommend that such products are not used together with this product as your skin may react sensitively. If you’re looking for a lightweight hydrating moisturiser, especially one that’s fragrance-free, this might be a good option. Beauty of Joseon Revive Eye Serum: Ginseng and Retinal The Pyunkang Yul Essence Toner was perfectly soothing and hydrating during the summer months (I used 2-3 layers), but I had to switch to something a bit more hydrating when the temperatures lately have dropped below 0*C.

As we age, people start to see a loss of moisture in more delicate areas, such as the area under the eyes,” he tells PEOPLE. “Adding an eye serum to your routine in your early 20s could help retain the moisture in that area.” The best known GAG in skincare is hyaluronic acid, and the sugary molecules in snail essence works along similar lines – they’re really good at holding onto water and acting as a humectant moisturiser. Aside from hyaluronic acid, you don’t really see these a lot in skincare. Kelly Driscoll mentioned that this irritated the skin near her eyes, which isn’t too surprising – strong retinoids make your skin go through a retinisation process as your skin kind of rebuilds itself, and your eye area can be quite sensitive. use of the content you supply does not violate these Terms of Use and will not cause injury to any person or entity. I have a post on how to adjust to retinoids with minimal irritation – if this is your first retinoid product, I highly recommend using some of those strategies, especially if you’re going to use this all over your face.
