Testing The HIGHEST RATED K-Beauty Products! Are They ACTUALLY Good¿

What is up everyone? Welcome back to my channel. I hope you guys are doing well today. As you can tell by today's video title, today we're going to be trying out some of the best Korean and Japanese makeup slash beauty products. And today we're going to have a little bit of fun because I'm not only going to be trying the products on my face but I'm also going to be doing like part whole segments in between each kind of stage of my makeup because I've just placed a huge order on YesStyle and basically I got so much new products to share with you guys. Some of them I've actually already tested as well so I can't wait to share with you guys some really awesome gems I found, especially in the hair care sort of section. I don't know if you guys have noticed but I feel like my hair has looked so much healthier recently in the last couple of videos. It definitely looks much less frizzy and that is definitely down to a couple of products in today's video so stay tuned for that. If you guys are new here and you haven't seen my face before, hi I'm Roxy, welcome to my channel. If you want to stick around be sure to subscribe down below. But if you are interested in seeing how some of these K-Beauty and J-Beauty products perform on my face then without further ado, let's get into it. Okay so first things first, let's do a little bit of skincare. So I've got this product right here which is a lip kind of balm and this is from a brand called Cathy Doll. I saw this on YesStyle and I was like I need to try this because I am still yet to try Dubai Chocolate. I mean it's got dairy in it which I cannot eat so for me this is the next best thing. Not that I'm planning on eating this whole tub or anything but I mean you do kind of ingest lip balms. It's on your lips, you lick your lips, you end up eating it. So this is actually a vegan formula, this is what the packaging is looking like and it looks really really awesome so let's crack it open and see. I just have high hopes that this is gonna smell like chocolate and pistachios. Oh wow, that looks so cool. Look at all the colors, that's amazing. Okay let's just go straight in. Oh that smells so good you guys. That's the consistency by the way. Let's just apply it straight away. Oh that is so moisturizing. It literally smells like chocolate. I wouldn't say it smells of pistachios per se but the chocolatey smell is really really pleasant. Okay this is my new go-to lip balm, love this. Does it taste of anything though? No, it really doesn't. Okay now let's also prep the face. So first up I really want to try out the d'Alba intensive volume fine grinding cream. I don't know what grinding is in terms of skincare, like what does that even mean? But it's part of their white truffle range which I do already love. I love their spray version of this and I did also pick another one up because I went through my last one but essentially this cream is made with Italian white truffle and volufeline, oh I said that wrong, it's volufeline. Okay volufeline and it improves skin elasticity and reduces skin concerns. Okay so that seems like a pretty generic kind of moisturizer. Oh wow look at the packaging. This is bougie, that's so pretty. Oh my gosh what is this? It comes with an applicator, that is fancy schmancy. I mean we have to apply it with the applicator now don't we? So that is the cream. I know that this brand is really really popular, it's one of like the best-selling brands. So I've never tried their cream, I've tried their like first spray serum. So let's see what this is about. Oh okay so it's got like, whatever this is, it's got like a dispenser cap so it says to twist it. Let's twist it. Oh okay so it literally just gives you the correct amount of cream right there and you can just literally take it with the applicator thing and then just apply it to your face. That's pretty hygienic actually, I'm loving that. You're not like literally dipping your bacteria-infested fingers into this cream, it just literally gives you the amount that you need. It smells really good, so let's just literally apply this all over the face. I might have given myself a bit too much. The smell of this cream is so nice, it almost has like a bit of a tangerine kind of smell to it but I've gotta say applying it with this applicator feels so much like a spa treatment right from your home. I mean I would never normally apply a regular face cream with an applicator like this but it feels very pleasant, it feels like a treat. This moisturizer really does feel quite thick on the skin so I feel like it's definitely gonna do the job of really moisturizing the face. I just hope I haven't applied like way too much. I mean look at that glow already, I'm just gonna you know get rid of the excess because I feel like I have applied quite a lot. This cream feels so premium, really moisturizing, not sticky though. Honestly I feel like I've found a new favorite go-to moisturizer for like every day. Obviously this is just my first impression of this but I am thoroughly impressed with how this applied to my skin. I feel super moisturized. I'm just hoping that the makeup that I put on top isn't gonna start to like roll so I am gonna give this a couple of minutes to just settle into the skin and just really absorb. Okay so I've given it a couple of minutes. I did also pick up the spray serum version of this range but I won't be using it for today because I feel like my skin's already quite moisturized as it is but I do really love this product as like a top up in between and I also actually use this over my makeup so I might use it as like a setting spray thing. Now let's get on into the makeup. There is so much to go through and this is kind of where I say that part of this video is going to be like a haul because I cannot use all of this on my face today. Okay so starting out with the primer, I have four potential options here and as you can see it is quite the lineup. There is so many awesome products that I really want to try. First up we have this brand which is and this is the Artless Glow Base Glow Primer. We then have the Etude Face Blur Smoothing Primer with SPF 33 PA++. We also have the Dasique Water Veil Primer and lastly we have this which is a cream but I feel like I would probably use this as like a priming cream and this is the Matcha Calming Gel Cream from House of Her Soul. I hope I said that right but look how awesome that looks. I'm really interested to see if this will actually smell of matcha. I am such a matcha lover. No it doesn't smell of anything. Oh that is such a shame. I would have loved this to have smelled of matcha. It does have a very nice watery kind of consistency though. Do you know what? Let's go for the Etude Face Blurring Primer for today. I feel like I'm already quite glowy so I don't think I really need to add to the glow. Oh the packaging is nice. It's just got a little pump so let's try and pump a little bit of that. It actually has a color to it. It's like a pinky kind of light color. One pump feels like it's enough for like two faces. I feel like I don't need that much product but that's okay. Let's just go ahead and rub that all in. Oh this feels like it'll be quite mattifying actually but I feel like we've prepped with enough glow underneath that this is gonna be fine. Okay that's definitely kind of toned down the glow just a little bit. My face literally feels so moisturized right now. Okay so now that my skin is all prepped it's time to move on to the actual foundation or BB cream. Let's see what we've got here. We've actually got quite a lot of options once again for this part of the makeup. I can't even hold them all up. That's how many options we have. So first up we have the Judy Doll Sun Defense Tinted Moisturizer which looks like this. We then have the Missha Chobo Yang BB Cream and this is in number 22. It's also got SPF 30. I do love Missha as a brand. They're like one of the first brands that I've ever discovered from Korean beauty. We then have this which is the Kojendo Aqua Foundation. I have no idea if this is going to be my shade. I just kind of bought this blindly and hoped for the best. We'll see. We then also have this here which is the Skintific Daily Filter Perfect Skin Tint in the shade 04 Beige and lastly we have the Tear Tear Cushion Foundation. This is called the Mask Fit AI Filter Cushion and I got both of these in the shell beige. I feel like this color might be a little bit too light for me right now because I have gotten quite tanned just from like being out in the sun all day long every day. I don't know how I tan so easily. Like I literally apply factor 50 everywhere and I still tan through it. Okay do you know what? Let's go with the Missha. I feel like it's been a hot minute since I've tried Missha products and the packaging looks really really nice. It's calling my name. By the way this one is in the shade Neutral Beige number 22. Ooh okay that looks pretty. Let's just squeeze some of this onto the back of my hand. I feel like that's gonna be enough. I've just zoomed you guys in a little bit so you can see my skin better. I'm just gonna dab that all over my face. Hopefully the shade will actually look right. Because it's a BB cream I'm just gonna go ahead and just like dab it in into my skin with my fingers. I know you guys might be screaming internally but genuinely I feel like my fingers are my best tool sometimes when it comes to foundation. It really does depend what kind of foundation I'm putting on. If it's like a matte foundation I probably will use a beauty sponge but because this is quite like dewy and sheer being a BB cream I don't really mind just applying it with my fingers and I do feel like it's a little bit light. That's okay we can salvage this with a little bit of contour hopefully. I've definitely tanned a lot more than I realize. This is so not my shade anymore from when I ordered this. I blame the UK heat waves. It's literally just been so hot. It's been unbearable lately. I'm hoping it's gonna oxidize just a little bit because it is looking very very light I feel especially compared to my neck and my shoulders. But this is an opportunity to also test out this one and this is the Skintific Daily Filter Perfect Skin Tint. This does look a lot darker so maybe I can use this to kind of blend this in before it completely sets. Oh yes okay that is definitely way more my skin tone right now. I'm just gonna like apply it to almost like the circumference of my face and almost kind of contour a little bit with it but as you can see that is definitely way more my skin tone right now so I'm just gonna use this to salvage the look. For some reason when I first saw this one I thought it just might be way too dark. Okay I feel like that looks so much better so I am happy that I got that Skintific one. It's again a very nice moisturizing formula so I'm really happy I got to test this out as well even though it was kind of in a panic. Okay now for concealer we have two different options today. First up we have the Clio Kill Cover Concealer. This is a repurchase and I definitely have loved this concealer for a long time now. And then on the other side we have the Etude Skin Fit Concealer Pro. This is how it's looking. The branding is so subtle you can barely see it. Do you know what because I already know I love this one I'm just gonna try this one out for today's video. I'm just gonna apply a little bit of that right here where I've got the most darkness and then also a little bit on the outer corners and then some on the lid. I am gonna use a brush to blend this all in. Okay this feels pretty nice and lightweight whilst still having decent coverage. I wouldn't say it's like a super full coverage concealer but it's doing pretty okay. And then I'm just also gonna dab that in. Okay so this is how the base is looking. I think it looks pretty damn good. It's very glowy, very moisturized and I mean it's not something that I'm used to. I normally prefer a more matte look. I just hate seeing like a glow in these parts of my face here. I don't know why. I just feel like it looks weird on me. So I am just gonna quickly set everything down just a little bit especially in like the t-zone at least. And I'm gonna be using the beautiful Flower Nose Loose Powder. This is such a beautiful compact. Look at it. This is actually from their Night Unicorn Collection. I did test this out a couple of videos back so if you haven't seen that I'll link it in the i. This is just literally a translucent kind of powder so I'm just gonna pick some of that up. And I'm literally just going to like set my t-zone and that's it. I'm gonna leave everything else kind of glowy. Maybe set the cheek a little bit here just because I don't really like that being glowy if you know what I mean. But I don't mind a little glow on like the cheek up here and also the forehead so that's fine. I feel like my base looks really really good today. I'm so happy with it. Now this next product was super hard to find on the YesStyle website just because I feel like Koreans and Japanese people don't really contour as much as we do in like the Western world. So I found this tiny teeny little contour product which looks pretty cool toned in my opinion. And this is also from Missha. Same brand as that first skin BB cream we tried. I feel like it's gonna be kind of light for me right now but let's just try it out anyway. I'm gonna do a little bit of like a nose contour with it maybe. It's actually much more darker than I thought it was especially like looking at it in the pan. So I'm glad about that because it's actually showing up on my skin. Okay so a little bit of contour on the nose. That's looking pretty good. Should we do a little bit in the cheek area as well? Why not? I actually am loving this. It's such a subtle contour. Like it's the perfect shade for me. It's not too dark up to the point where like you can see you're wearing contour. I'd say this is brilliant for especially the nose contour so I'm giving this a big thumbs up. Now for Flusha we have a couple of options once again so let's just go through it. The first one we have is from this brand called Unleashia or Unleashia? I don't know how to say that. Once again it's vegan formula and this is in the shade peach batter. Oh my gosh how cute is that? It's literally like a padded quilted okay it's still in one piece. I might be able to fix this. Rest in peace little blush. Oh my gosh we need to do surgery. Okay let's press them in. Oh no okay. Will this stay? Who knows? I'm not going to risk it again. Here it is. It's um yeah a quilted kind of blusher but it's like a dough kind of texture so I think that's why it fell out of the pan because it wasn't really stuck in there very well. I really need to like press it down a lot but yeah it's like squidgy. Look at this it like leaves an indentation. That is so cool. So yeah that's an option. We then have the Fwee Mellow Jewel Blush. Look at the packaging this is so pretty. Let's open this sucker up. Oh that is so cute. Oh my gosh that is everything. Look at that it looks like a little artist palette. We then have a Lily By Red Love Beam Cheek Balm in the shade Honey Peach. Let's open this one up. Lily By Red is such an awesome brand as well. Very very hyped and rightfully so and we love it because it's a love heart of course. This is kind of hard to open though. Hello. I want to break my nail opening this. Should I use a hair clip instead? A sacrificial hair clip? Oh my god I can't get into this. Who made this compact? Nah it literally broke my hair clip. Oh my god I had to use a pair of scissors to get into this. Okay that is cute though. It was worth it. So obviously this is like a balm kind of blusher. The color's really pretty though and then we've also got these two which this one looks cute. I love the packaging. Let's look at that one first. It's from a brand called Art Value. Oh it's one of these. It's literally like a multi-layered compact that has loads of different blush colors. Look at that. That is so freaking cute. There's so many different shades. Four to be exact and look how cute the little embossing is as well of this little girl. That is so fun. There's so many colors here and lastly we have this blusher from a brand called... I'm not even gonna try that. I'm not even gonna attempt to say that. How would you even say that? Here it is. Oh it's another like balmy type of blusher. So there's two of those now and I'd say they're quite similar in color as well. Do you know what? I feel like we're gonna go with the first blusher. This is the Unleashia that fell onto the floor and that's when it captured my heart. I guess because it's a putty you can literally just go straight in with your finger. That's the color. It's quite light and also a little bit iridescent. I'm just gonna go straight in and just pat it into the skin. It feels very soft and velvety like when I dip my finger into the pan but it's not really showing up. What is going on? I think it's just a little bit too light for me potentially. Oh wait I can see it. It's very shiny though. There's barely any color to it but it's definitely very like shiny and almost like more of a highlighter. Do you know what? I don't think I'm that impressed. It's kind of separating on my cheeks as well which is not great. It's not ideal because I've now committed to the powder life. We have to go with the Mellow Dual Blush Powder to try and save this monstrosity. Let's see if this will be any better. We're just gonna mix these two shades together with like a swooping motion and then just apply it straight over that. Hopefully we can get a little bit more pigment going because there's nothing right now. What the hell? Okay that's kind of showing up now. It definitely isn't very pigmented on camera though so that's concerning. Okay in real life it's showing up a lot more than it is on the camera so that's the main thing. I feel like I've got a little bit of blusher going now. We're also gonna apply a little bit to the nose bridge. Okay I feel sufficiently blushed. This has saved the day. Okay what's next? I feel like it's time to tackle the brows. The brows need a little work, they do. I have three potential brow products. The first one is from Etude and it's the Drawing Eyebrow in the shade Ash Brown but then I also have these two which I have historically enjoyed using on my brows. They're not actually meant for your brows but they are just the perfect like consistency, they're really thin, they're actually eyeliners but they're just not that pigmented so I think they're perfect for brows. So which one? I mean I've not tried this so let's try the Etude one. So first up I'm just gonna spoolie them in position. I feel like my brows are kind of crazy right now. I haven't plucked them in a while so please excuse that. So this is like a retractable twist up kind of situation. I guess let's just go for it. Okay that's quite good, it matches my eyebrow color so impressed. Let's see if we can fill in the good old arch. Okay it's giving a little bit waxy I'm not gonna lie especially on the arch but we're gonna make it work. So I like it for the beginnings of my brows but I hate it for the arch so I am gonna just go in with one of these and fill in the arch. By the way this is by a brand called Rosso and it's literally just like a little felt tip liner. It's so so precise and you can literally just like draw on the hairs individually and it looks so natural. Okay so that's the brows done. I feel like they look much better now with this product so I'm gonna say this is the winner. Now moving on the next step of the makeup is of course the eyes. So for this I only have one choice and that is this palette here from a brand called This is the most beautiful brand of makeup I think I've ever come across. They literally don't do anything half-arsed. When they do something they do it well and I mean the packaging from the exterior does not look like much. It's pretty simple and plain but that's because the beauty is all inside. I have tried a palette from this brand before but I think it was in a different color way. Here is the packaging of the actual palette like compact. It has literally a film that you can peel off. How beautiful is that? Oh my goodness. But wait until you see the actual inside because that is even better. Are you ready? Three, two, one. Oh my god. Oh my god. This palette is actually so me. Look at all the pink tones. Look at the neutral tones and the embossing. The actual engraving is everything. This looks like a palette that you don't even want to use because how freaking beautiful is that? Seriously I cannot get over the embossing. It needs a moment before I dip in my filthy brushes that are clearly unworthy of this palette. Okay first things first I'm gonna be taking this creamy kind of base shade on a big fluffy brush and we're just gonna you know set the tone down. We're gonna set the base. Just make sure the other eyeshadows have a really nice base to sit on top. How pigmented is that? Look at the difference. Wow. I really wasn't expecting this eyeshadow to be this pigmented. It's so light and so perfect. Back in the day everyone would have loved this creamy eyeshadow to like set their cut creases with. Next I'm gonna take the slightly darker beigey kind of shade and again just kind of contour my eye with this. I'm just gonna pop it in the crease, set a nice little transition color down. Okay that's a really nice shadow as well. Would also make a very good base color. Then I'm gonna be taking this shadow right here which I'm so sad to like even dip into because it's gonna lose all of the shapes and embossing. I'm just gonna try and take it from like the corner to not ruin it and we're just gonna pop that kind of like as a nice wash sort of towards the outer corner of the lid. Oh okay that one's not actually as pigmented as I thought it would be. Let's try and apply it with my finger instead. Okay yeah that works better. This one you want to apply it with your finger first and then kind of blend it out after because it's not really picking up on the brush very well. I'm then gonna take a little bit of this middle shade. Again I'm so sad to even be touching this embossing but look at that shade. That is so pretty. I'm just gonna pop that sort of on the Oh that is so pretty. And then I'm gonna take this one and pop that in the center of the lid. I'm then taking this shimmery one here and I'm gonna layer that over that center shade again. And lastly I'm gonna be taking a flat brush and I'm gonna be dipping into the dark brown matte kind of eyeshadow and I'm just gonna run that along my lower lash line like so. Okay so that is the finished eyeshadow look using this palette. I am so happy with how this turned out. It's so beautiful and I love the palette so much. Now to finish off the eyes I'm going to be using this gel liner from Clio. This is the extreme gel presso black brown eyeliner. This is how it's looking and it's one of these. It's literally just like a twisty up kind of pencil. I'm just gonna line my upper waterline with this and then also do like a little bit of a flick. So that's the eyeliner all finished. I really really like how dark it's made my waterline and it was really easy to flick out as well. And lastly for the eyes we're just gonna be using this mascara from Clio. This is the Kill Lash Super Proof Mascara. It's the extra volume one in the shade 04 which I believe is literally just a black one. I'm just gonna apply that all over my lashes. And by the way I have used this mascara before. It's actually one of my go-to right now. I still have one in my makeup bag but it is kind of drying out now because I've had it for a while. So that is the eyes complete. I am so happy with how this mascara performed and everything on the eyes just looks amazing. It's now time to finish off the whole look though with a lip and for that we're going to be trying out this today. This is from the brand called Romand. I think that's how you say it and this is the volume pack trio nude edition coffee nude set. And this is basically a lip balm, a color gloss and a matte lip pencil kind of kit. This is what you get inside which looks beautiful. So first up let's use the matte lip pencil. This looks to be a really nice and neutral kind of color. Okay so that's the lip liner. I love that so much. I was really able to kind of overline my lips but it still looks natural. Then I'm gonna apply the Glasting Gloss which I hope is gonna be a really nice shade. It does again look like a really beautiful kind of neutral brown nudie kind of shade. So I'm just gonna apply that straight over. That's very light. Hopefully it'll look okay. I mean it's definitely nude. I'm so not used to wearing a nude this light. And lastly we have this which is the Glasting Melting Balm. Let's see. It's literally just like a stick. I don't know if I was supposed to apply this first or last but that literally just makes everything even more juicy. I will say it does feel kind of thick and heavy. Maybe I can pat some of it away because this is just way too much product on my lip right now. I'm just gonna use this cardboard box. That's taking some of it away. Let's do another one. Yes that's better. Much better. This now looks really natural. A little bit glossy but not like so much product that it's in your face. And I feel like it really complements the whole look especially with the eyes. The eyes definitely are the center of attention here. So the natural nude lip really just goes well with it. I am loving this look so much. It's definitely very different to my natural like everyday look. But I feel really beautiful and I am so happy with all the products that I've tried out pretty much apart from the blush. That first blush was awful. So now that my makeup is all finished I will also talk about the hair products I bought from YesStyle. As promised there is quite a few of them. The first I want to talk about is this shampoo set which I have been using and then putting back into the boxes every single time. I've used them for like two weeks now and the cardboard boxes are literally getting soggy from me like taking them in and out. But I really wanted to keep them in the boxes to show you guys in this video. These are from a brand called 107 and these are the hair and scalp hydrating microbiome treatment. So that's what this is and then this is the scalp purifying microbiome shampoo. First of all the packaging is so aesthetic like look at this. Beautiful. I'm so happy I can finally take them out of their boxes fully and just like never put them back in because how stunning are they? And actually the products inside, the formula, everything about these is so amazing. I'm really on like a hair care journey now. I've cut off like all of my dead ends which has taken a lot of like the length of my hair but I feel like it was getting so like frizzy and frazzly. I am also kind of suffering from a little bit of like thinning hair like I have noticed that my hair is falling out a lot more lately. Whenever I brush and wash my hair I literally have like clumps of hair falling out so I was like right I need to switch up from my head and shoulders and actually get some proper decent shampoos. So that's what these are. I then also got this which is the Medi Cube which we all know and love but this is the Rosemary PDRN hair and scalp conditioner. I've used this like once or twice now as well and yeah it's a really decent product, very gentle on the hair so you can use this a lot. It's volumizing and strengthening and it has 19 types of amino acids. I really really love this. I then also picked up this which is a raspberry hair vinegar so this is from this brand here. I don't know how to say that but essentially after shampooing you just apply this directly to your roots, massage it in and then rinse it out. It basically just removes impurities from your scalp. It means that your scalp can be nice and healthy which promotes obviously hair growth. So this has also been a great addition to my hair care lineup and now the last couple of bits I have are all kind of like hair serums I guess. So the first one is from Fino. This is a Japanese brand. I love their like in shower conditioner. This is just a hair oil but it's really really good. Then I also got this one which is a hair oil but made from camellia. This I believe is 100% camellia oil and yeah it's really really nice, really moisturizing. You can use it everywhere and you can even use it on your body. Then I also picked up this which I felt like just looked legit you know. I feel like this is what all the Japanese ladies use and this is the super strength hair serum. It fights severe thinning hair. We need that. This has camogen ENK which improves condition of a healthy scalp and ensures smooth supply of nutrients to hair. It effectively combats scalp problems for healthy luscious hair. So yeah I've also been using that with like a little applicator brush and then the last item we got is this and this is probably the cutest item of this whole video. It's a serum from Koze and it's a night treatment for your hair but obviously it's in collaboration with Pokemon Pikachu specifically. How adorable. I've only used this once. I wouldn't say it's gimmicky. It does smell really nice. It smells like perfume almost but it's like a very calming scent so you can definitely use this at night. Yeah like I said I've only used this once but it's super cute so I can't wait to use it more. Okay so that is everything for today's video of me trying out a full face of not only skincare but also makeup products from various brands. I am so happy with everything I tested out especially the skincare stuff at the start. I feel like that's really made a huge difference to how my base is looking right now and I love how the makeup look turned out as well. As always I'll have all the products that I listed or showed you guys in this video linked in the description so you guys can check it out for yourself. I've loved everything but the one product I'd probably stay away from is that first blusher. Not only did it literally fall out as soon as I opened it but it was not really showing up on my skin either. So yeah I wouldn't recommend that one. Thanks so much for watching guys I really hope you enjoyed this video and found it interesting and helpful and as always I hope to see you guys in my next one. Bye!
