Since moving to Korea 3+ years ago, I’ve been so obsessed with Korean Skincare, and I love trying out new products!
Recently wishtrend bywishtrend sent me some products to try out. (Quad Active Boosting Essence and Mandelic Acid 5% Skin Prep Water)
I’ve seen a lot of people talk about the Quad Active Boosting Essence, so I was so excited to try it!
I have very sensitive, acne prone skin, so I’m very selective about which products I try out. The Quad Active Boosting Essence has a lot of amazing ingredients perfect this skin type;
* 26% 3-Complex ingredients �(Morus Alba Bart Extract, Nelumbo Nucifera Leaf Extract, Schisandra Chinensis Fruit Extract)�: Anti-inflammatory Blend that prevents acne breakouts and helps calm stressed skin.
* Salix alba bark extract�: A gentle chemical exfoliant that helps to fight acne.
* Propolis extract�: An anti-inflammatory agent to protect the skin against bacteria and soothes the problematic skin.
I’ve only been using this product for about a week or so, but so far I really liked using. It was very light weight on my skin and absorbs quickly and nicely. I’ve also noticed it soothing my skin, as my skin easily gets inflamed.
Mandelic Acid 5% Skin Prep Water is a gentle, low irritate exfoliator, again perfect for sensitive skin.
* 5% Mandelic Acid�: The gentlest AHA acid helps improve pigmentation as well as restoration of aged skin. It also contains antibacterial properties which are effective for inflammatory acne.
* Panthenol�: Also known as vitamin B5, it acts as a humectant and moisturizer, improving the skin’s abilities to regenerate and to maintain hydration.
* Centella Asiatica Extract�: Soothes and protects sensitive skin.
Overall I enjoyed using this product. I generally don’t use exfoliator much because of my sensitive skin, but my skin wasn’t irritated after using this!
