Saranghae, Skin!

In case you're wondering, "Saranghae" means "I Love You" in Korean. Not that I know much about Korean culture, but I do know a thing or two about the Korean Skin Care Philosophy and how important it is to have a routine in order to achieve youthful, vibrant healthy skin that you will love.

Saranghae was founded almost two decades ago when Lee Min Jun decided to carry on the family's healing tradition after finding many harmful ingredients in North American skin care products.

Lee Min Jun partnered up with the University of Seoul in South Korea and created two revolutionary and award winning technologies that has made Saranghae into a world leader in natural botanical ingredient extraction.

Saranghae skillfully combines ancient traditions with modern anti-aging techniques. They are the first company ever to study and commercialize the healing and anti-aging benefits of the Sang Hwang (Phellinus Linteus) mushroom and natural preservative SH-Napre - The active ingredients are derived from rare and powerful Asian Botanicals that grow in rich volcanic soil on the island of Jeju, South Korea.

Thanks to these technologies and the unique 5 step routine, my obsession for a good skin care regimen has grown along with my love for my transformed skin. Definitely can say now "saranghae, skin!"

5 Step Routine

Infused with organic Sang Hwang mushroom, Ginseng, Black Truffle and 20 other powerful botanicals, Saranghae’s Complete 5 Step Anti-Aging routine is the very best in Korean beauty and the results on my skin are not only amazing but were also immediate.

1 – Saranghae nourishing + moisturizing oil + foam cleanse - I used it day and night for best results as it removes makeup, targets all the impurities and toxins, and hydrates and nourishes the skin.

2 – Saranghae deep radiance essence + serum - Also used daily after washing my face. The serum delivers amino acids, antioxidants, and vitamins while also leaving a natural glow.

3 – Saranghae firm & lift regeneration cream - One of the most important steps of the entire process. This cream diminishes age spots, decreases redness and improves the appearance of fine lines as well.

4 – Saranghae focus renewal eye cream - I definitely loved using this day and night. This cream improves dark circles, wrinkles and brightens the eye area.

5 – Saranghae elemental essence mask (6 sheet masks) - The use of these masks is based on need. However, the formula delivers radiant results and reduces pigmentation over time.

I also tried the new Pore Refining Charcoal Mask. The mask is a full-face mask designed to remove any waste, dead skin cells and environmental impurities almost immediately. Formulated with activated charcoal, Lavender, Japanese pepper fruit, Korean pasque flower, Grapeseed and Lichen the Pore Refining Charcoal Mask gives you maximum pore cleansing efficacy while leaving your skin soft and clean. The best part? Your pores will look visibly smaller after your first use!

After trying the Saranghae products for 30 days straight, it is certainly safe to say I can never go back to ordinary skin care products nor will I be able to skip a day of my skin regimen because finally, I have the skin I've longed for!
