Asian Beauty

I have been obsessed with Asian beauty shops recently. I even made VIP at the local Asian store I shop at, and a cute little pink VIP card to prove it!!

I really look up to the beauty treatments and rituals amogst Asian women, and really think they are some of the most beautiful women in the world. There are popular beauty items that I have tried and wanted to share with you..

BB cream- BB cream is all over the place in the Asian beauty world. Skin79's BB cream seems to be a popular brand, with excellent reviews. It is said that the formula comes from Germany, where dermatologists prescribe it to heal laser skin surgery. It moved to South Korea, Japan and eventually the U.S.A. The cream combines skin ingredients, a light tint, and suncsreen, for the perfect skin cocktail. It seems, this popular skin trend delivers serious results!!

Sheet Masks- Sheet masks are a huge Asian beauty secret. They typically come in boxes of 5-12. The sheets are soaked in a skin solution that treats various skins needs. I purchased multiple sheet masks, for my various skin concerns. My favorite was the whitening sheet masks, which deal with hyper-pigmentation.

Charcoal Products-
I had heard that charcoal could be taken orally to beat a hangover, but I never realized what a huge skin trend charcoal was in Asia. You can find various charcoal sponges and peel masks that deal with oily, acneic skin types. Charcoal is particularly popular for treating blackheads on the nose.

If you don't live near an Asian beauty store, you can still find products like these and more at Sasa.com!!
