I started using a K-beauty anti-aging moisturizer – it drastically improved my skin but it keeps selling out
A K-BEAUTY cream keeps selling out and one skincare shopper says it’s for good reason.
She said the anti-aging solution gave her complexion a drastic glow-up.
Redditor Darlingredsquirrel dished the details on her holy grail of skincare.
She said it works so well, it became a crucial part of her anti-aging routine.
The key is in the ingredients, which include honeysuckle extract for sensitive skin.
It also has shea butter for added moisturization.
WHAT DOES SHE USE?
She said she uses Pyunkang’s Ato Cream Blue Label, which is currently sold out.
Listing some of the skin-saving ingredients, she shared why she really loves the product.
“It has ceramides and peptides, but more importantly to me, it’s a very thick, creamy formula,” she said.
Ceramides are lipids, or fats, that can create a plumper look when used in skincare.
Peptides are amino acids that can give skin a smoother feel.
“[It has] more of a ‘slugging’ feel than a traditional moisturizer, but it has drastically improved the look and feel of my skin.”
She added that other moisturizers haven’t quite lived up to the hype for her.
“Most other moisturizers felt like they stopped working after a few hours, but I wake up in the morning and finally don’t feel dry despite the bad weather,” she said of Pyunkang’s Ato Cream.
She didn’t keep her routine all to herself, dishing on products she uses in conjunction with it.
“I pair it with Melano CC Essence and Cosrx 0.5 Retinol as part of my anti-aging routine and as retinols can be a little drying, I appreciate it even more,” she said.
Melano CC Essence is a Japanese skincare product that is sold for $12.77 on Amazon.
It contains vitamin C for combatting dark spots and other hyperpigmentation.
The Cosrx 0.5 Retinol retails for $17.45 on Amazon.
Retinol is a common skincare ingredient for anti-aging, addressing concerns like fine lines.
It is recommended to use sunscreen with retinol to protect the skin as it can become sensitive.
“I imagine that those two products are doing the heavy lifting but there’s no harm in a little extra,” she added.
