My skincare journey

When I first discovered Korean skincare, I fell through the K-beauty rabbit hole like most newbies.

I got hooked on the cute packaging, the Hallyu Idols endorsing and the “hype”.

I had to try everything I could put my hands on instead of targeting products specific to my needs.

The result was terrible because my skin is very sensitive and would react instantly (break out, allergy) to any product components it doesn’t agree with.

I learned the hard way that my skin doesn’t like anything with Snail extract.

Back in Geneva, I took an appointment with a dermatologist who helped me figure out what my problem was: ultra dry skin and hyper pigmentation in some areas of my face.

Armed with this knowledge, I could now target the skincare I needed and created a little collection of favorite products.
