Enjoy 'Premium Home Beauty' Comfortably at Home [LIKIT]

[Culture & Life Section Reporter Choi Jeonghwa] "The small beauty habits you have now shape your face 10 years from now"

The impact of the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19) has significantly changed lifestyles. Although the social distancing period has been announced to last until the 5th of next month, the end point of COVID-19 remains unpredictable. Prolonged mask-wearing has brought major changes to daily beauty routines.

Instead of going to theaters, people use Netflix; instead of dessert cafes, they enjoy home cafes; instead of fitness centers, they do home workouts. Beauty is no exception. Rather than visiting aesthetic salons, people devote themselves to home care. Color makeup that would be erased by masks is minimized, and more focus is placed on skincare.

The diversity and premiumization of home care products, which have rapidly grown in recent years, have also contributed to the increase of home beauty enthusiasts who manage themselves easily at home.

The foundation of home care is maintaining the best skin condition. For K-beauty fans going through difficult times due to COVID-19, a beauty reporter personally experienced premium home care beauty items that rival high-end aesthetics, and shares the reviews.

In Seongsu-dong, there is "The Freshest Kitchen" !

If you go to Seongsu-dong, there is "The Freshest Kitchen" !

Pretty, fresh, and desirable! That was the feeling when first encountering the 'Kuoca Serum Blend'.

Opening the premium package like a gift box reveals a clearly written date in fine script. The surprise at the manufacturing date being less than a week old lasts only a moment; then, as if drawing back a curtain, removing the transparent sheet reveals the 'Kuoca Serum Blend' wearing a leather scarf, small but exuding a soft glow that captivates the eye.

This is the moment when the prejudice that natural cosmetics packaging is overly minimal collapses completely.

The Serum Blend is made with a recipe improved over more than 11 years at 'Kuoca Cosmetic Kitchen' located in Seongsu-dong, crafted by manufacturing experts. Freshly extracted organic ingredients are blended and produced only in quantities that ensure freshness. This inefficient manufacturing method is rarely seen in today's factory and automated production systems, but it produces entirely different results when the finished product reaches consumers.

The Serum Blend uses only the highest grade organic and natural ingredients, offering a refreshing sensation that gently envelops the skin, as well as a visually pleasing color and natural scent that stimulate the senses.

The core ingredient of the Serum Blend, known as "deep hydration that never lets the face dry," is the highest grade 'White Truffle' harvested from Alba, Italy. White truffle helps protect skin tissue, reduce stress, and maintain active energy.

Additionally, the Serum Blend combines top-tier organic ingredients such as first-grade German Chaga mushroom, horse oil, squalene, and broccoli seed oil in an optimally developed blend, producing and distributing only limited quantities.

"Customize Your Beauty Too" Multi Skin Care with 'Mulli'!

"I found Muilli fixed on the sofa table."

We are truly in the era of customization that has permeated fashion, food, life, and society at large. The beauty market is no exception. Beauty fans show growing interest in 'customized beauty' focused on the individual.

The brand 'Lilycover', which offers personalized solutions and cosmetics, developed the beauty device 'Muilli' that features a built-in lens capable of magnifying up to 60 times to diagnose pores, redness, and wrinkles, and build data.

Muilli takes skin photos and allows users to immediately assess their skin condition via a dedicated app. It precisely diagnoses pores, wrinkles, redness, oil-moisture balance, and provides results and information about each individual's skin type and condition through linkage with the mobile application 'Lilycover'.

It does not stop at measurement; based on detailed diagnostic results analyzing skin condition, it offers solutions to users and manufactures optimized cosmetics to deliver to consumers.

Moreover, it analyzes real-time environmental factors such as temperature and humidity at the user's location to provide skin care methods suited to the space. It also includes a massage function using plasma technology with flexible electrodes to enhance skin regeneration and ingredient absorption, making it a multi-device capable of total skin care.

Now, Peel in 5 Minutes at Home with 'Pula'!

Now, do peeling in 5 minutes at home with 'Pulla'!

"I think I don't need to go to an aesthetic salon for peeling anymore." This was the thought after using Pula's Vitamin-C Peel Kit.

The usage is simple. Mix the powder and ampoule on the cheek and apply with a brush to the face and neck?done! For sensitive or acne-prone skin, rinse with lukewarm water after 5 minutes; for healthy skin, within 10 minutes, and you can feel refreshed as if you just visited an aesthetic salon. When used as an exfoliating mask, lightly rub after application, let dry for 5-7 minutes, then remove.

Because it is in powder form, it is not destroyed by external factors, maintains optimal condition safely, and has excellent penetration performance on problematic skin areas.

Additionally, it assigns an Individual Beauty Code allowing personalized care tailored to individual needs, identifiable by a unique product number. For example, the product the reporter experienced was the '483' kit, a combination of products numbered 48 and 83.

Using Pula once a week, after using about half of the kit, the reporter experienced a clearer complexion and smoother texture improvement. It is expected that using all 10 ampoules will result in even more supple skin.

Pula is an aesthetic brand inspired by medical science, with 80% of its products produced in France and 20% in Spain.
