10 Unique Korean Beauty Products That Will Blow Your Mind
Korea is well known for its wide range of beauty and skincare products. Even some of Hollywood’s most famous celebrities and models use Korean beauty products. Most of the products that we are familiar with are the lengthy skincare routines and the products we see regularly are sheet masks, cleansers and moisturisers, amongst other products. If you are a fan of Korean beauty products then these 10 unique beauty items will definitely blow your mind.
Shampoo scalp massager brush
Hair care is a priority and in Korea, it is just as important as skincare. This shampoo scalp massager brush is one of those pretty unique Korean beauty products. Instead of using your own hands to wash your hair they came up with a spiked massager that not only cleans your hair but also the hair follicles by scrubbing out the flaky skin and product build-up on your scalp to boost hair growth. If you are looking for a fast and effective way to grow your hair longer this product is a must try.
Carbonated charcoal bubble mask
We have used one or two cleansing products for sure, and this might seem like your normal clay mask, but when you apply it onto your face the magic happens. This is a bubbling charcoal mask aimed to oxidise the dirt and dead skin cells out of your pores for a deep cleansing effect. After applying the mask, it will start to bubble up into a rich foamy texture and great for pore cleansing and tightening as well as clearing up your blemishes. Who knew that cleansing could be so much fun when we used to dread that step the most?
