Enfnts Terribles

Better Safe than Sorry

Compared to Westerners, Koreans start with skin care at a much younger age. Their idea of beauty is defined by a good looking, healthy skin while we tend to cover up our flaws without thinking about the cause.

Not taking good care of your skin by sleeping with make up on, drying out your skin, spending too much time in the sun (even with protection) may cause acne, wrinkles and other problems such as hyperpigmentation. In case you still want to look 30 when you’re 30, keeping your skin clean, hydrated and protected is essential.

Ingredients are key

Luckily, we’re entering a stage in which we’ve vaguely heard from the words parabens and mineral oils. Many western brands are making a big effort to catch up, we definitely can’t complain about that. However, Koreans have been focussing on the ingredients they put in their skincare products much longer than we do. They are also very innovative when it comes to textures and packaging. A slimy vitamin E mask that melts in your hand, why not. And that vegan BB cream from Klairs with a mochi face on it works better than anything else we’ve tried.

Where can you purchase these products?

We’re planning on writing reviews of our favorite brands and products very soon. In case you can’t wait, you can purchase K-Beauty products via Littlewonderland.nl and we found out that & Other Stories also offers a selection in its shops.
