My 10 Step Korean Skincare Routine / Philippines

     Koreans are known for their smooth, baby-like skin. Although some may say that it goes with their bloodline or their culture of the food they eat, we can also cannot deny the fact how they are truly devotional to their skincare. They are so dedicated to the point that they originated the 10-Step Skincare Routine. Yes, 10 steps unlike the usual 4 to 5 steps skincare. Today, I will be sharing with you my Korean Skincare Routine which I'm currently in love with.

My Vegetable Salad Recipe with Homemade Croutons

     So, today I will be posting my vegetable salad recipe which is very easy to make, very popular recipe and procedures. Let's go straight with the ingredients.

Ingredients:

1. Cucumber                          5. Few cloves of garlic

2. Singkamas                        6. Salad dressing (I use mayonnaise)

3. Green Lettuce                   7. Butter (I use Dairy Cream)

4. Fresh Tomatoes                8. Bread of your choice (for your homemade croutons)

Procedures:

1. Wash the lettuce. Cut the bottom part then start to chop into chunks. Put in a big bowl.

2. Coat lettuce with the salad dressing, but do not overcoat. Keep some for later use.

3. Wash tomatoes then cut as desired size. Set aside.

4. Wash cucumber then remove skin and cut as desired size. Set aside.

5. Wash singkamas then remove skin. Then start to chop as desired size. You might not want to put a lot of singkamas in your salad and to chop big chunks as this may cause indigestion.

6. Put these three (3) ingredients in the bowl, then add the salad dressing and start to mix.

7. Make sure to cover all the ingredients with the dressing. Set aside.

8. To make your home made croutons; Heat a pan, then, prepare two (2) to three (3) bread of your choice (I use white bread) and remove each brown side. Then start to cut into squares.

9. Mince a garlic. With the heated pan, put a generous amount of butter. 

10. Wait till the butter melted. Then put the minced garlic.

11. Stir the garlic all over the pan then remove till golden brown.

12. Add the bread. Make sure to cover each side of the bread with butter. You may want to add more butter, don't worry, the garlic will still taste. 

13. Continue to stir until toasted (which I like the most) then put at the top of the salad after. And we're done. Enjoy your salad 🙂

     I love the croutons the most. I believe that without the croutons, it's just a plain, simple, ordinary vegetable salad. It just gives more flavor (saltiness) and texture to it. I also like the combination of lettuce, cucumber, tomatoes and singkamas for its taste and health benefits. And the sourness of the mayonnaise just balanced it all. I have watched almost all of these vegetable recipes in Youtube and I noticde that most of them were just the same or almost have the same ingredients and procedures, just different variations, so I collect all the ingredients I can and follow all the procedures I can, then I come up with these.

Innisfree Volcanic Cleansing Foam & Toner Trial Kit

Innisfree Jeju Volcanic Pore Foam is a pore cleansing foam with Jeju volcanic clusters to attach to sebum and purify pores.  Innisfree Jeju Volcanic Pore Toner is a clarifying skin toner that whisks away impurities and excess sebum that may lead to clogged pores and a dull complexion. Refreshing toner contains volcanic scoria mineral powder that purifies and clarifies skin, leaving it relaxed and renewed with a vibrant glow.

     

     So, last Friday 04/20/18 while I was browsing Lazada, looking for an affordable but legit seller of Innisfree Jeju Volcanic Cleansing Foam, I came across this trial kit consisting of the said cleanser together with its respective toner. For just P260.00 (excluding shipping fee) you have your own cleansing kit (but wait till you see its actual size). 

VOILA!!!

It is almost as big as a thumb, literally!!!

 

Php 260.00 (excluding shipping fee)

Where to buy: Lazada / Kbeauty Shop

Foam Cleanser (10mL) Toner (13mL)

(It comes with a free cotton pads and sheet mask from Real Nature)

(It also comes with this cute box)

     At first, I was shocked and excited not just because I found the cleansing foam I was looking for but also it comes with a toner from the same beauty line. I ordered last Friday and successfully delivered this morning (Monday), so not bad for Lazada. Now regarding the product, I must say the cleanser is legit, since  I have a sachet version of this foam cleanser which I bought from KStyle PH, a korean store which happens to have a physical store in our town. Though, I am not quite sure with the toner since I haven't tried it before. I love that it comes with a free sheet mask and cotton pads, if not for those I will not give this a 5-star rate in Lazada 😉 Just take note that none of these (the innisfree products) were sealed. I don't know if it is originally like that. Will I repurchase? I don't think so. For it's price P260.00 plus shipping fee, I would rather spend it on other stuff than order this online, but this is best for those who just want to try Innisfree cleansing foam and toner. If this product is great, I would buy the bigger size.
