I bought a Sulwhasoo set tax free in Seoul. It was expensive but on a 25% discount, I bit the bullet. This review will cover the First Care Serum, Balancing Water, Balancing Emulsion, Eye Cream and Ginseng Cream.

I have been using this stuff for two weeks and I really do see a difference in my skin. I have dry skin with occasional hormonal acne, some fine lines and some unevennes in color. These products have improved the softness and the dewyness of my skin. I need less foundation than before (just tinted moisturizer)

I use the First Care Serum, Balancing Water, Balancing emulsion 2x a day. I am not sure all these steps are useful or necessary but the end result is nicely hydrating. I used to use a much heavier moisturizer (night cream during the day) since I have dry skin. With these products, I have replaced that with a much lighter option that hydrates just as well. I guess the system works. Don't forget to add sunscreen in the day!

The ginseng cream is heavenly. The eye cream is also OK. I use both at night and wake up with smooth, nourished skin. I also got a sample of the overnight cream - also very good.

I use an antioxidant serum and/or retinol at night along with these products - the rest of my skincare is now Sulwhasoo.

Korean skincare usually involves more steps and time than Western skincare. You may see this as a "hassle" or relish the meditative aspect. I enjoy taking a few extra minutes for my skincare, but I believe you can just layer the products as well without waiting too much in between. The smell also makes a difference for me. A very light scent is found in all producrs (stronger in the Ginseng cream) that only lasts a few seconds so you don't keep smelling it. Just enough to refresh and calm your mind at the same time. I might be addicted to the smell. Or Sulwhasoo in general.

Cons: Expensive.

Hi there, I just purchased the sulwhasoo concentrated ginseng cream. I would like to give a review every week in regards to this.... So far it is very moisture full and absorbs nicely.... I have really bad skin and am looking to find a miracle cream to fix it. I have acne scars, uneven skin tone, pigmentation, and after years of neglect my skin looks lifeless and I always need makeup whenever I leave the house. I have tried everything out there.... So this is my last resort. I really hope it improves my skin. Keep you posted.

This is a review for Sulwhasoo Nourishing mask.It is said to provide moisture and nourishment to exhausted skin. When I tried this from the sachet sample I did not expect anything miracle. How wrong was I because after about 15 mins I massage my face with my wet hands before rinsing the residue off with water. I have a skin that looked like 'brand new'. That day was a long day for me,lack of sleep and lots and lots of activities. My skin was dull and almost lifeless. In my opinion the cheapest 15 mins facial. So worthed.And yes I did it at my own home. I'll go buy the full size.
