Brands I Love: COSRX

I think CosRX was one of the first Korean skincare brands that I tried–and really liked. So many of the products I’ve tried have worked so well for me, and it’s hard to say anything except how much I love them.

One of the things I like about buying CosRX from BeautyMNL is that there are gift packs, sample sizes and travel bundles, so I get to try different products without worrying about cost or waste.

One example is the COSRX 2020 Holiday Toner Collection. I loved the fact they were in small bottles, so I could go through them quickly but make them last long enough to see any results. I think my favorite from this set was the Hydrium Watery Toner. It was so good at moisturizing that I didn’t need any hyaluronic acid afterwards!

Apart from the Holiday Toner Collection, I’ve also tried the AHA/BHA Clarifying Treatment Toner, probably one of the first products I tried. It worked pretty well for me too! I loved the fact that it came in a spray bottle, so I could just spritz my face after washing.

The Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence is probably the most amazing thing I’ve gotten from CosRX. I thought the whole snail mucin craze was just hype, but damn it’s real. I stopped using it for a while, but a friend gave me a bottle when she realized she didn’t like it, so now it’s back in my skincare routine.

I tried the Oil-Free Ultra-Moisturizing Lotion, and I loved the scent! But I don’t think I repurchased it.

Because I used to be quite acne-prone, I explored their acne-clearing products, and wow they were really helpful. The Acne Pimple Master Patch was such a great find, and until now I keep two or three packs on hand, for emergencies. I loved the Salicylic Acid Daily Gentle Cleanser, because it was aptly named: the sal

Galactomyces 95 Tone Balancing Essence and CosRX BHA Skin Returning A-Sol: According to my previous blog posts, these didn’t do much for me. Oh well.
