From Essence to Skincare Devices... Must-Have Items for Pre- and Post-Vacation Skin Care

The Dictionary's Cyforest Fresh Paha Toner.

[Asia Economy Reporter Moon Hyewon] As COVID-19 transitions into an endemic phase and outdoor mask-wearing is relaxed, more vacationers are purchasing beauty products before and after their summer holidays. In fact, last month, department stores and e-commerce platforms recorded increased sales not only in sun care products but also in slimming and color cosmetics. Especially, since skin is heavily exposed to the intense summer sun during vacations, careful care before and after the holiday is essential to prevent skin damage.

According to the beauty industry on the 21st, It’s Skin’s ‘Power 10 Formula LI Effector’ is a product needed to soothe skin irritated during the summer, with cumulative sales reaching approximately 23 million bottles over the past 16 years.

This product contains as much as 79% licorice root extract harvested from the pristine, pollution-free Jirisan Mountains. Licorice root is rich in the active ingredient ‘glycyrrhizin,’ which is highly effective in reducing skin redness and calming the skin. It also contains 30,000 ppm of CalmZulen™, composed of guaiazulene known for its excellent soothing effect and chamomile flower extract that replenishes moisture. The product is free from 10 harmful ingredients such as benzophenone and parabens, and has completed skin safety tests, making it safe for sensitive skin.

Dictionaryist’s ‘Cyforest Fresh PHA Toner’ is a vegan brand product known for lowering skin temperature and smoothly managing dead skin cells accumulated during the holiday season. It is a toner filled with 95% Jeju cypress leaf extract, a gentle real cypress water product. The instant cooling formula acts on overheated skin to refresh it. To fully capture the active ingredients of cypress leaves from Barime Oreum in Jeju, the product uses a 100-hour low-temperature extraction method, slowly simmering and repeating the extraction twice. The packaging uses PCR plastic containers made from recycled plastics and water-soluble labels, employing eco-friendly materials for sustainable environmental efforts.

Since consistent care is crucial for hair loss, it is necessary to pay attention to scalp care even while on vacation. Aveda’s ‘Sun Care Protective Hair Veil’ is a lightweight mist with waterproof effects that protects hair from sun damage and minimizes dryness. Its waterproof feature makes it suitable for use during water activities, and it contains essence ingredients from natural flowers and plants such as neroli, ylang-ylang, and cistus, providing a pleasant aromatic scent.

Mom’s Bath Recipe’s ‘All Over Soothing Lotion’ is a mildly acidic formula with plant-based ingredients that moisturize dry skin. Containing cica ingredients, it protects skin sensitized by the sun and includes natural treatment components that help maintain the skin barrier. It is EWG green-rated, making it safe and gentle for use as an aftercare product.

Derma Queen’s ‘Cooling Stick for Face and Body’ is a compact skin care device convenient for carrying, allowing long-term cold compress treatment for skin heated by excessive sun exposure. It can be used not only on the face but also on swollen legs and for post-exercise massage. If fatigue has accumulated from an exciting vacation, why not take care of your skin’s heat and circulation with the cooling stick? It is best stored in the refrigerator or freezer and used for about 20 minutes per application.
