6 Cooling J-skincare products
A Benefit of Cold for The Skin
I've hand-picked 6 Japanese cooling cosmetics to share with you all. These products tighten pores and calm down the skin after a sunburn. Coldness causes blood vessels in the skin to constrict. You may see smaller pores and less dullness because of the effect. The concept of cooling cosmetics meets the need of Japanese women, which is to survive insanely HOT & HUMID summer. If they work under such suffocating condition, so would they in your place too!
1. Hadarabo Hakujun Sherbet face gel from Rohto $ 10/30g - Rub yummy sherbet on your face!
Look at that smooth scoop. It is a multi face cream that soothes the skin after sunburn as well as minimizing pores and preventing dark spots. Especially, Tranexamic Acid in this cream leads your skin to brighten! Keep it in a fridge, and you will experience the cream melts and goes on the skin smooth just like an ice cream on a hot sunny day.
2. Lucky Trendy Konjac Sponge (3 versions: Pure/Green tea/Charcoal) - An essential tool for enhancing the clear glowing skin.
Of course, Konjac sponge has been a huge trend for a while. This one, in particular, is shaped in a heart, and Green tea and Charcoal versions are available. A little trick is to use hot water to soften it and then leave it in a fridge until you use. That way while you are moving the sponge it exfoliates dead skin and tightening pores. And on top of that, you feel so nice and refreshing because of its coldness!
If you wish to try one of these sponges, it is included in our Skincare Box! Check it out from here:https://zenpop.jp/japanese-beauty-pack
