Hey Cassandra! I'm a translator in Korean, so I checked the back of the bottles, the pomegranate mist says "PET" inside the recycle sign, below it says the pump is made of some other material, and the lid is PP.

Glass is infinitely recyclable with many uses. Plastic is downcycled rather than actually recycled. It has limited number of times it can be made into something else and many types of plastic have no market uses so are not recycled much if at all. Only a couple are really used at all. Most plastic on the market is still first use, and then landfilled. Even much placed in recycling schemes is unusable, or not able to be sold on for any industrial use, so again, is landfilled straight from the recycling facility.

The products I use on a daily basis are the blueberry hydrating toner, the citrus brightening serum, and the citrus brightening moisturizer. These products really do work for me. I have combo skin and these products work wonders for my skin. I used to use Ole Hendrickson Vitamin C Gel Creme as my daytime moisturizer, but I switched to Frudia's citrus brightening moisturizer when I received a sample of it when I ordered backups of the blueberry toner, and I automatically fell in love! Kept my skin moisturized all day and never felt like my skin was dry towards the end of the day, like how Ole did. A little goes along way with these products and the price point and packaging are amazing! I can't say one bad thing about Frudia lol.

I use a few depending on the needs of my skin. They have products with BHA and AHA acids. The AHA is a chemical exfoliant and remove dead skin. So I'm sure it helps with dark marks. I am currently using the 8% AHA isntree essence. But I found I get blackheads if I don't use BHA so I use a 0.5% BHA toner from axis-y. I wouldn't suggest it because it has alcohol in it. But they do have other alternatives. And then I use Klairs Vitamin C serum with their Vitamin E Mask. Vitamin E apparently helps to let the Vitamin C absorb better and we all know Vitamin C is excellent for dark marks. I literally have amazing results within just a month

It's both! Snail mucin is basically the slime snails produce, however some brands go the extra mile to collect the mucin that is released when the snail is irritated, frightening or in perceived danger. The secretion is mean't to repair and restore any damages the snail (or its') body might think its' subjected to which is why it's believed to be great for skincare as a moisturizing, repairative treatment. In either case, the process is generally cruel free, but what you can check for in each brand practices, is if the snails are well taken care of and allowed to reguvenate with time. Constant production/collecting of this slime can rightfully be taxing for the snail through longer periods of time.

Both brands have nothing new in technology that I haven’t seen in other Korean brands including the extraction method it’s great but not new nor unique to this brand, the key really the stabilization, and delivery; very few lines can stabilize its too costly.

Hi ❤️ the story of this brand reminded me of Japanese Brand´s SKII and how they made their world famous essence, SKII Facial Treatment Essence Petra. They observed the hands of people who were making dough for breads with yeast. Their hands were younger looking than their faces, hence they brought the yeast to their skin care, and developed it to make it the groundbreaking "secret ingredient" in their products. I personally used that essence and is really nice on my sensitive, dry mature skin. Have you ever come across it? I am curious about what would you say about it. Thank you for always sharing the well needed knowledge with us ❤️

I gave the frudia avocado essence toner a try and oh boy, I regret on that. Apparently it has coconut oil and clogged my pores so bad that my skin never looked worse, even worse than when I was a teen. I thought it was a different product and it took me a while to figure it out. 😬 Wouldn't recommend it at all
@nursenaceylan3706 Жыл бұрын
coconut oil is a good moisturising ingredient, it also can be harmful for acne prone skin. im sorry but if you have acne problems you should scan all the ingredients for their comedogenic ratings.its not the toner's nor brand's fault

I switched to a korean skin care routine 6 months ago with COSRX products and I am really happy with the results during this quarentine. My skin is mixed going to mature since im 31. I used to suffer from acné that looked like a rash, very tiny but horrible. Thankfully now that I am older I no longer get as much acne on my face, arms and back but I noticed that my diet changed a Year ago and 2 months ago I found out I was alergic to gluten and lactose. I stopped avoiding those foods as much as I can I now I got rid of the arm and back acne. Can you please review COSRX.

Yeay go Frudia! Thanks for this video. I've been using their Suncream (the orange cap tube) as that's more suitable for my oily - leaning skin. What triggered my interest was the combination of physical and chemical sunscreen, I just wanted to try it out and hey ho I loved it. That blue one that you featured has patented ingredients for natural hydration. And the best thing, all the products under this brand are easily available in Msia for cheap. Yes, I don't need to spend a bomb on good skincare. The Ordinary, I still love you ♥️😘. I use the essence/fat water in my nighttime routine and my toner in my daytime - just because I'm loyal and I love what both are doing to my skin. Overall, love love love. Thanks for sharing the intellectual knowledge, word and love. No, I'm not sponsored by any brand. 🤪😂

Wow this was such a descriptive video 📝! Keep up the great work Cassandra 🙏🏻! I remember you introducing Frudia from your previous Stylevana video, but I’m not gonna lie ... I was slightly skeptical about the brand 🧐. I remember older Korean brands like Tony Moly that really emphasized on their cute packaging back in the days, but some of them were not the best for the skin. I think you doing an informative brand video really helped clear any fear mongering about the efficacy 👌🏻. I know you can’t touch on every little detail, but I think it woulda been good to mention to your audience how the higher the concentration of an ingredient is in a product, doesn’t necessarily mean that it’s better. I liked how you said that Frudia extracted the more of the fruit nutrients and about the anecdote about water 💦 being the first ingredient in a lot of cosmetic products. Keep up the great work!

It does have fragrance but I didn't mind, and was surprised to find out it had niacinamide. Weirdly enough I swear my skin looked better when I was using it.

@elizabuga43373 жыл бұрын
@@Jl2damax alright fine, I’ll be more specific about my reasoning, since a KZfaq comment needs to be an essay on my thought process, I guess. US rules: You are supposed to put “ad” or “sponsored” both in text AND in audio in a place where it will not be easily missed. The title is the best place to do this, but saying it AND putting it in a text overlay at the very outset of the video is also acceptable. That comes directly from the FTC influencer guide. The spirit of the law also suggests that one should make the fact that her brand affiliation is clear, direct, and unconcealed, which is not the case in this video. She made it look the same as her other unsponsored videos on purpose. Also, it is not clear whether she is marketing solely to USA consumers, if U.K. consumers watch her videos, she is subject to U.K. advertising law for influencers, which is more strict and directly states, “Consumers should be able to recognise that something is an ad, without having to click or otherwise interact with it. Since it needs to be clear/obvious, consumers shouldn’t have to work to figure it out.”. Since stylevana is available in the U.K., it seems this is applicable.
@andreadomingachidiac98554 жыл бұрын
But isn't it true that the ingredient lists are read differently in Korea and it's not based on the highest concentration to be on top of the list? In Korea from what I have researched, they purposefully be putting the Extracts first and the unknown ingredients last just for marketing strategies and it seems that it's working great.
