(upbeat music)
- What's up yall?
It's you're girl Stephanie.
Today I have a Korean
beauty video for you.
Man most of the products in
this video are so unique.
They are just so different than
any other product I've
ever used in terms of like
application, materials used, texturally.
So, so different.
I had a really good time
trying out all these products.

Come join the sista hood no matter
your true pronoun or gender identity.
Come join the family.
Alright let's get into it.
We're going to address
these caterpillars right now
cause obviously this is not how
I usually apply my eyebrows.
But I have got these bad
boys on them right now.
This is the Tint My Brow
Gel from Etude House.
I have two colors on them
because I put a darker color,
this one right here
called number one brown
on the outer edge.
And I have number two light brown on
the inner third of my brows.
Cause I'm trying to make a
little bit of a gradient.
So this is my second time applying
so I'm going to be able to share with you
the longevity and how I
feel about this product.
Yeah let's talk about how
I applied it at first.
This stuff is so, so sticky.
What you gotta do is
just grab some product
and you kinda wanna do a
pretty thick layer on there
so it dries down nice and even.
So I kinda just started
with a darker color first.
The outer two thirds of my brows
and just start brushing away.
You want to be careful not to get
you know too thick.
Cause this is a stain by the way.
If you didn't already know this.
This is an eyebrow stain.
So we're just kind of brushing it in.
If you need to fix it
with a q-tip of something,
go for it.
But I just try and
carefully really fill it in.
It does take a little it of time.
And you don't want to rush this at all
cause you don't want to stain your skin.
And then I go in with the second color,
which is a lighter color,
and I fill in the front areas.
Again I feel like this
can be a little bit tough
cause you don't want to like
do a super hard line right at
the beginning of the brows.
So I've had these on now
for a good hour and a half.
They say you should do
it for like two hours,
but I've tried this before.
So I kinda know how this looks already.
Probably now you know what,
it's gonna be up on two hours currently
from when I applied it.
So we are just gonna take em off
and see what it looks like underneath.
Alright I brought yall
in a little bit closer.
We're going to start off with this brow.
It's already started to
peel off a little bit.
So like I said
you want to put on a pretty thick layer
so you can peel it off pretty easily.
It doesn't pull on the eyebrow
hairs or anything at all.
And there we go.
Mmm pretty successful,
oh that looks so gross,
full brow peeled off there.
Sorry I think that might have been
a little bit out of focus but.
Second brow now.
Yeah I thought it was
going to hurt or something
to peel it off but not at all.
It doesn't catch on the brow hairs at all.
And it kind of has like
a jelly like consistency
once it's dried.
Yeah.
There we go.
As you can see,
I mean
almost two hours
stains pretty well.
I don't really know
what it'd be like after
a whole night of having this on but
it looks pretty good.
I actually applied my makeup
after letting this dry for a little bit
because it looks really sticky.
And it looks like it might
stay sticky for a long time,
but actually once you apply
it it dries pretty quickly.
And then you can completely touch it.
It's kinda like I said
turns into like a jelly like consistency.
And you can actually work around it.
So if you want to do your
makeup while it's drying,
that's perfectly doable.
Okay so I will talk about some pros
I feel like about this product.
Like
I didn't realize it has
some real longevity.
So last time I put this on,
I didn't really take
care of it afterwards.
I like you know scrubbed or whatever.
I did my normal skin care routine.
And it stayed on for at least five days.
Like even after like five, six days
I could still see very slight tint.
Which was quite impressive.
Like I was quite impressed
by the longevity.
The thing that I,
I'm a little iffy about is like one:
of course how would you really
get this front area to blend well.
I guess it would just be
like exfoliate it right away
to try and make it a little bit softer.
I feel like the dark and light color
almost stained in the same way.
Maybe the dark on is a little bit darker,
but it's also cause I have
more hairs over there.
So I could really tell a
difference in the color too much.
Other thing is that as you can see,
it's quite a warm brown.
And I,
maybe I think.
I think there's probably other colors.
I think there might be a cooler brown.
But if I were to really do this regularly,
I would want to find a
color that matches my hair.
Cause currently this is
like way too warm for me.
But if you do have warm brown hair,
this could be awesome.
Like I could imagine myself
wanting to put this on
if I'm like going swimming.
Or like going on vacation
and I want to have some
brows and stuff for pictures
but I'm gonna be on
the beach or something.
Like so perfect.
It stays on really, really well.
And once you get the hang of applying,
I think that it's pretty easy to apply.
Like I said the main downfall
I have for this product
is that it's too warm for me.
But if yall have tried
the different colors,
let me know if there is there
is a cooler one down below
that I should just pick up instead.
And I would totally use this.
I just went ahead and cooled
down the brows a little bit
with my Anastasia Brow Pattern Duo.
I only use like a little bit
of the lighter side on each side.
And that's it.
Like if I could do this on
the daily that'd be amazing.
Cause it would really
reduce my makeup time
by a lot.
Just if I had a cooler
color underneath as well.
But yeah let's move on to
some other products now.
Alright I have three really
cool masks to show you
and all these products,
except for three products at the end,
are from sockglam.com.
It's my friend Charlotte's shop.
So you should definitely check it out.
She has so many cool products on there.
Ah which one should we start.
Okay I'm going to start
with this mask right here.
Which is a black charcoal mask.
It is a sparkling mask,
which is supposed to provide a
"massaging effect with micro fine bubbles,
"evenly removing impurities
"and stubborn dead skin from pores".
I had no idea what to
expect from this mask.
Right when you open it up
you can tell that it's
very bubbly right away.
You want to use it quite quickly
after opening of the packaging
because it's going to
start bubbling like crazy.
Also something that I
didn't expect from this mask
is that it only covers the
bottom portion of your face.
But you can grab some
of the excess product
and then put it onto
your forehead as well.
And there's good reasoning for this
because you apply it and
immediately you can feel
these little bubbles start to form.
And they keep forming.
You're supposed to keep this
mask on for ten minutes.
At the five minute mark,
it just, it doesn't end.
Actually even by the ten minute mark,
the bubbling doesn't end.
By ten minutes
it is actually being like weighed down
by the amount of bubbles
that are formed on your face.
So I can understand why they wouldn't
want to put it in the forehead area
cause it would start to get
weighed down into your eyes.
And that is not good.
But it starts getting so weighed down
it was like starting to bubble so much
it was like getting into my mouth
and kind of into my nose.
But like not in a
uncomfortable way.
You could definitely just move it around
and it's not a big deal.
But it was very like
effervescent on your face.
It like is a really cool feeling
to have all these little bubbles
form and pop all over your face.
Afterwards,
when the ten minutes was up it
looked like I had a big ol beard.
And all you gotta do is just take it off.
I kinda rubbed the product
in a little bit more.
And then I washed my skin
off with some warm water.
And it felt great.
It felt super clean.
No weird residue afterwards.
Like it says on the packaging
this is a purifying sparkling water mask.
So it's really supposed to
I think draw out impurities
and leave your skin feeling really clean.
Which it definitely did.
Next mask is this one right here
which is from the same
company as the first one.
It's from Goodal.
And this one is called the
Refine Pore Modeling Mask.
And as you can see it comes in
this little packaging right here.
You go ahead and open up.
And there are two packets in here.
There is a refine pore powder
and a refine pore essence.
And it also comes with this little
plastic spatula applicator thing.
What you do is you need to combine
these two packets together.
So you pour the powder into
the little cup provided.
And then you pour the
essence in after that.
And then you start to mix.
And you want to mix for under a minute
until all of the power
and essence are combined.
And it turns out to be this just
really interesting thick
jelly like substance.
The process of making this is so much fun.
Combining the powder and essence
and then it creates this goo.
It was really fun just
to mix it all together.
Then like I said,
you're left with this very
jelly like consistency.
And you want to take the spatula
and just start spreading
it all over your face.
They say you want to
spread it on your face
in a upward motion.
I would say I tried to do that,
but I kind of ended up just
putting it all over my face
and then at the end scraping
it up in an upward motion.
But by that time,
I could feel like the mask was
already kind of starting to dry.
Which I didn't know was going
to dry down the way that it did.
So this is a kind of mask that
you want to work with quickly
and I understand why it
doesn't come already mixed.
Cause I think it would harden.
This really reminds me
of a Kate Somerville
facial that I've gotten before.
They have a jelly mask that
when you go to the facialist
they'll apply on you.
It's a Kate Somerville product
that they do not sell
outside of the treatment
because it's too difficult
for people to do.
And I think it's because you have to
combine these two kind of products
to create that jelly and
then use it right away.
Okay so after 15 minutes,
it's so interesting because
it is just like hardened
gelatin on your face.
And then what I did is I just,
which I assume would be the correct way,
is I start from the bottom.
And started peeling away at the chin area
and then I just started pulling up.
And it's just the most satisfying thing
when you put on one of these kind of masks
and you take it off all in once piece.
It's so cool.
And it's such an interesting texture.
Super jelly and bouncy.
And this product is supposed
to refine the pours.
So it's supposed to remove
pore residue and sebum.
And if you look at the part of the mask
that is touching your skin,
you can really see that it goes
in to every little crevice of your pores.
I don't know if it shows up on camera,
I tired to get it on camera.
But it was really cool cause I felt
like it was really going in there.
And afterwards my skin
felt so soft and nice.
You know I know with all these products
I've tried the mask like one time.
But this is over the
course of the last week
I've been trying out these products
and my skin has been pretty darn happy.
So I'm not complaining about these at all.
It's kind of just a nice
at-home spa experience.
Last mask that I'm going
to show you from Soko Glam
is this Neogen Dermology white
truffle hydromax knit mask.
This is supposed to provide
deep intense moisture
and nutrition your skin
and create an overall brighter
and more radiant looking skin.
This is the mask that I
used today before filming.
So this mask goes from
all the way on your face
and all the way down
onto your neck as well.
And the material that
this mask is made out of
it so cushy and so soft.
And it is so saturated with this essence.
What I did is I carefully
put this onto my face.
You're supposed to have,
there's like a little,
there's a little tab on the left side.
So you make sure that the
tab is on the left side.
I really like the nose
area actually of this mask.
Because it allows for the mask
to sit down besides your nose.
Cause you know sometimes
a lot of sheet masks,
when you put it on it
has the little nose tab
but then it kind of like doesn't
actually lay down beside your nose.
And then I went down to my neck.
And I didn't realize it's such
a huge sheet on the neck part.
So it actually spreads
over your entire neck.
Again very cooling feeling.
Really nice.
And you're supposed to leave this one on
for 10 to 20 minutes.
So I left it on for I think
about 15 minutes before
I peeled it off.
This mask obviously does not dry at all.
I even showed how much
essence was left on the mask
after I'd applied it onto
my face and taken it off.
It just like,
I could squeeze so much essence out of it.
So that's pretty crazy.
But just now,
after taking that mask off
my skin feels so soft.
I know I'm really raving about
every singe one of these products.
I feel like these ones are very nice and
pretty like cleaning, purifying.
Especially this one I felt like
was really going into my pores.
And I felt it do that.
I felt very like purified after these.
But this one I just felt super moisturized
and supply and like
really bouncy and soft.
And so I really like this mask as well.
I've tried a lot of
different masks in my day.
A lot.
And sometimes I use it and I'm like eh.
I would never use this again, it's fine.
But all these were really
great products I feel like.
And my skin feels awesome.
So those were all three
masks from Soko Glam.
We're gonna move into more skin care now.
I wanted to mention this
toner I was using before
both this mask
and the jelly mask.
In the directions it says to use a toner.
Wash you're face, use a toner,
and then apply the mask.
So Charlotte sent over this one to me.
I haven't really been
using toners too much.
So I'm excited to try this one out more.
This is from Klavu.
This is the revitalizing
pearl treatment toner.
Pearl extract, mineral
water, apple fruit water,
and kelp extract to hydrate,
brighten, and even out your skin tone.
It does have like a really nice,
I was trying to figure
out what this smell was.
It's a really nice subtle apple smell.
And it smells so good.
I really like how this toner smells.
It absorbs into the skin really nicely.
And I use these little cotton pads
that she actually provided me as well.
These are really interesting.
There's two different
cotton pads in this pack.
In the middle section there is
a more compact, denser pad here.
And I think this is for more of like
if you want to use a toner
to clean off your skin more.
And then there is a softer one of to the,
these two sides here,
that are thicker and softer.
And I think this is more
for patting on the toner
and letting it really
absorb into the skin.
So yeah I was using these together.
So if you're looking for a toner
you can look into this one right here.
Last night I was trying
out this product right here
which is the Neogen real
fresh cleansing stick
in green tea.
And this is supposed to
be a makeup remover stick.
It smells like how you would expect
a green tea product to smell.
Uh man.
I just love the scent
of this product so much.
So last night I took off my eye
makeup like I usually would.
Cause I wear waterproof mascara.
So I used the Garnier Micellar Water
to take my waterproof mascara off.
And then with this stick
I just rubbed it all over the skin.
Just kept rubbing it all over the skin
and it did break down all my face makeup.
And I actually,
I don't think I filmed this
but I put this toner on
afterwards with a cotton pad.
And no makeup came off
with the cotton pad.
So great testament to this product.
Also great product for traveling
since it's not a liquid
and it's makeup remover.
Can look into this one.
We have three more products to go.
This is actually the only product that
I have not been able to try it.
It is a cleansing oil makeup remover.
So while I talk about
the other two products,
I'm actually going to apply
some of my most fierce eyeliners
onto the back of my hand.
And then we will try to take
it off after they dried.
So here I have two Marc Jacobs eye liners.
We got a blue one.
These ones stay on in the waterline too.
I remember actually my last video
I did a shout out to
the Makeup Forever one.
And I was asking what everyone's favorite
waterline eyeliner was.
And a lot of people said
Marc Jacobs and I was like,
"oh my god I have those.
"Why haven't I really
tested them out more?"
And yes.
These stay in the waterline like crazy.
And then we have these
Makeup Forever Aqua XL.
And the Urban Decay 24/7
Glide-On in Perversion.
Alright so.
We have these four things right here.
I haven't tried this
out at all, like I said.
So let's let this dry off.
And I'm going to show you two products
from this company called Glow Recipe.
This one is the Blueberry
Bounce Gentle Cleanser.
It supposed to be makeup
erasing and deep cleansing.
And I actually used this one last night
after removing my makeup with
the Neogen makeup remover.
This one smells like
just like blueberries.
In it's description
this product says it has
antioxidants because of the berries.
And it also has skin smoothing AHA
that gently exfoliates
dead surface skin cells.
This cleanser's supposed to
deep clean while hydrating.
My skin did not feel
tight or anything weird
after using this cleanser at all.
This next product is this
Watermelon Glow Sleeping Mask.
First of all look at
the packaging of this.
It's such a cute little bottle.
This product has one of
the craziest textures
I've ever felt.
It is like slime.
Not in a bad way though.
But it is like watermelon
Jolly Rancher scented slime.
So both of these products
from Glow Recipe can be used
as cleansers or as wash off masks.
So I decided to use this
one last night as a mask.
I just put it all over my face
and let it set for about ten minutes.
It just feels like you're kind of
putting slime all over your face.
But at the same time it's like not
an unpleasant feeling at all.
It felt pretty nice and cooling.
This is supposed to have
soothing watermelon extract,
hydrating hyaluronic acid,
and gentle exfoliating AHA.
I'm down with the hyaluronic acid yall.
First impressions:
I like these products.
Of course I'm gonna
just continue trying out
and see if I really do like them.
If I really do like them,
I'll put them in a favorites like always.
Moment of truth for
this nooni deep cleanse
snowflake jelly cleansing oil.
It has such a pleasant,
really light scent.
And I really can't pinpoint what it is.
It almost reminds me of
like the apple scent.
Yeah.
Of this toner right here.
Just really subtle and nice.
I think like some Asian products
really have that really
beautifully subtle scent.
Of it's like too crazy you know.
But all of these ones
smell pretty good to me.
I'm just gonna take the little scooper
that they have here and scoop it out.
This has a really cool texture look to it.
I don't really know
how much I should take.
I'm just gonna grab a bit.
It is like gelatin.
And I'm going to put it
on the back of my hand.
Alright.
And
let's just start.
Okay starting to break it down.
These eyeliners are seriously strong.
Aw man I should have done
like the wipe to show you.
But if I,
before this
if I would have just started
like wiping back and forth
it would not have come off so.
Huh.
It is breaking it down.
It's taking a little bit of work.
Now I just feel like
I'm like wiping around
a black jelly on the back of my hand.
I think it's all gone
though from what I can see
through here.
Look at that.
Just wiped it off with a paper towel.
It's all gone.
Look at that.
So obviously
you know it took a little bit of working,
but I feel like with this kind of product
maybe too you're supposed
to just stick it on the skin
and let it sit for like a couple seconds
before rubbing it in so it
can start to break it down.
But obviously it broke down
those really crazy eyeliners.
We definitely have an
effective makeup remover
with this little thing right here.
Alright we're all done.
Those are all the Korean Beauty
products I have to show you.
Man it is dark out right now.
I forgot earlier that I wanted
to peel off the eyebrows on camera.
So I was setting up to go and I was like,
"okay I'm about to film."
and I was like oh crap.
I gotta let this stuff sit on
my face for like two hours.
All good though.
I hope the change in lighting
didn't bother yall too much.
