Pyunkang Yul - First Impressions With Hannah - Part 1/2
A comprehensive cruelty-free skin-care brand that leaves your skin feeling wondrously soft and supple, that also happens to be perfect for someone with sensitive skin (like mine)?
Get this name stuck in your heads ladies! Pyunkang Yul (PKY) isn’t your "garden-variety" Korean skin-care brand, because their creations are specially curated by a friggin’ medical skin care research lab! They’ve been doing this for decades. I’m particularly impressed with their dedication to natural ingredients, which means you can now limit your exposure to harsh chemicals, but also get to reap the benefits of maximum beauty. Win-win!
As your resident sensitive-skinned blogger, Pyunkang Yul has been such an amazing find. With hayfever season coming in full swing, it’s important that I have a go-to brand that uses natural ingredients, but can also deliver the moisture that is lacking from my skin.
Essence Toner
Pyunkang Yul Essence Toner is by far one of their most popular products and for a damn good reason. My skin instantly absorbs this clear and fragrance-free toner and leaves it feeling super soft. Seriously, this is just step 1 and my skin already feels like I’ve put on 2 coats of regular moisturiser - an amazing way to start your skin-care routine!
Moisture Serum
Don’t be fooled by the milky texture because OMG this serum is so light! Moderation is absolutely key here because it’s so damn spreadable. Even with the serum on its own, my skin is definitely feeling super soft compared to skin that hasn’t been blessed with this serum.
Balancing Gel
What is this magic?! This balancing gel is so unique because of its clear, honey-like texture PKY created. Out of all the products I’ve tested so far, this one smells the most “herbal” and that’s how I know it is filled with some natural goodies. This balancing gel on its own nearly disappears into my skin and you wouldn’t even know it’s there (there’s no stickiness whatsoever!) apart from the fact that my skin is feeling A LOT softer and smoother than before. This balancing gel would act like an amazing barrier, locking in all the layers you applied on before.
Nutrition Cream
Being one of the more final steps, this nutrition cream packs a punch with hydration and moisture. Even with the other layers underneath, this cream quickly melts and absorbs into your skin without weighing you down. Also if you’re feeling a bit lazy sometimes (guilty), this nutrition cream on its own can seriously deliver you some stunning results because my skin is feeling smoother than a baby’s bottom.
If you haven’t picked up on my subtle clues, PYUNKANG YUL IS AH-MA-ZING! What I learnt is that these products deliver you amazing hydrated and super soft skin, while using the most natural ingredients! It's a triple win for me!

Skin Burns After Skincare? It May Be a Damaged Skin Barrier!
How to repair a damaged skin barrier (from someone who has had to repair their skin barrier multiple times)
Skin irritations and allergies are never fun, but a damaged skin barrier is a whole new level of hell. The good news, is that our skin is a resilient organ and can heal relatively quickly. The not-so-good news is that you'll need to peel back all your fancy skincare for the time being, get consistent with a simple routine, and resist putting any active ingredients on your skin until it heals. You can do it, let's get into it!
Beauty of Joseon's Revive Eye Serum: Does it live up to the hype?
This is the first eye cream I ever used to completion
Listen, I've always been a bit sketchy on eye creams and serums. Are they actually necessary? Do you even need one? Why are they so tiny but so expensive? I'll be honest: I didn't bother during my 20s and early 30s. If it was good enough for the rest of my face, it was good enough for my eye contour area! Then my late 30s hit me like a trout slap in the face, and so did the sudden dryness, fine lines, and pilling if I dared to wear makeup.
The Best Eye Cream? We've tried it
The Best Eye Cream? We've tried it
What does an eye cream do? Well, it pretty much does what a moisturizer would. It can hydrate, soothe, treat fine lines, hyperpigmentation, etc. So do eye creams really make a difference? And is an eye cream really better than moisturizer for your face? The answer is, they can indeed make a difference to your skin AND they can be better.
