Dr. Althea ABC Glow Whipped Serum Review

 

Press Sample (Affiliate Links)

Dr. Althea ABC Glow Whipped Serum is a unique hydrating and radiance-boosting serum that is dispensed as a foam, but quickly transforms into a watery liquid that is very fast-absorbing. It leaves behind no unwanted residue, it has no scent, and it leaves my skin soft, smooth, supple and deeply hydrated. Furthermore, it plumps fine lines and leaves my skin with a wonderful glow. This vegan K-Beauty serum locks in hydration and calms and soothes irritated skin. It is effective, fun to use and affordable!

According to Dr. Althea,

ABC Glow whipped Serum is a foam-to-water glow serum that delivers toner-level hydration, and serum-like glow. Its moisture-boosting air bubbles absorb quickly with a lightweight, non-sticky finish. 

With 90% vegan collagen water, bakuchiol, vitamin tree water and allantoin, it boosts elasticity, soothes skin, and enhances natural radiance while keeping skin smooth, hydrated, and makeup-ready.

Benefits:

- 3-in-1 care: Toner & Serum & Bubble Pack

- Foam-to-Water Formula

- Fast-Absorbing & Lightweight

Directions: After cleansing, dispense 1–2 pumps into your hands and gently massage over the face as your first skincare step until fully absorbed. For an intensive glow treatment, apply about 3 pumps in a thicker layer and use it as a hydrating-boosting bubble mask in place of a sheet mask.

Ingredients: Collagen Water, 1,2-Hexanediol, Propanediol, C12-14 Alketh-12, Water, Butylene Glycol, Glycerin, Zea Mays (Corn) Kernel Extract, Fructan, Glucose, Hydroxyacetophenone, , Coptis Japonica Root Extract, Ethylhexylglycerin, Disodium Edta, Hippophae Rhamnoides Water, Allantoin, Bakuchiol.

Overall Assessment: Dr. Althea, is a remarkable K-Beauty brand, and they make such effective and affordable products. This serum is a nice addition to my skincare routine, and it is adding vital hydration to my skin during all of the hot days we have been having lately.

$21.90 for 3.38 oz. from Dr. Althea, YesStyle, Olive Young, Amazon and Style Korean (Affiliate Links). Press Sample. All views expressed are categorically my own.

mixsoon Bean Cream Review

Press Sample (Affiliate Links)

mixsoon Bean Cream is a daily moisturizer that is formulated for all types of skin. While it is emollient and rich, it is remarkably lightweight and fast absorbing. My skin, which is largely normal with some activity in my t-zone, is perfectly suited to this type of facial cream. It offers plenty of moisture, is completely non-greasy and residue free, and it leaves my skin soft, smooth, supple, hydrated and luminous. I note that my skin feels comfortable and hydrated all day long after a single application– even when I reapply sunscreen throughout the day. Additionally, this K-Beauty moisturizer has no detectable aroma and it plays well with all of my other skincare, sunscreen and makeup.

According to mixsoon,

A rich yet lightweight cream that delivers intense hydration while strengthening the skin barrier. Formulated with a skin-friendly pH of 5~6, it helps maintain a healthy balance while supporting barrier function. Powered by fermented soybean extract, it locks in moisture for soft, smooth, and nourished skin all day. Enriched with barley, pomegranate, and pear extracts, it deeply nourishes, improves skin texture, and promotes a radiant, youthful-looking complexion. The non-greasy formula absorbs quickly, soothes irritation, prevents moisture loss, and leaves skin feeling balanced, silky, and revitalized. Suitable for daily use on all skin types.

Perfect for:

• Dry, dehydrated, or rough skin.

• Skin in need of barrier support and long-lasting moisture.

Directions: After cleansing, refine skin texture with toner. At the final step of your skincare routine, gently apply the cream over the entire face and let it absorb. For an extra boost of hydration, layer 2–3 times as needed to achieve a firmer, more moisturized feel.

Ingredients:

Overall Assessment: I really like this cream, and I love the way it makes my skin look and feel. mixsoon is definitely a brand worthy of your consideration.

$35.00 for 1.69 oz. from mixsoon, Amazon, Ulta, Olive Young, iHerb, YesStyle, Korean Style and Walmart (Affiliate Links). Press Sample. All views expressed are categorically my own.
