I Tried 9 Asian Sunscreens So You Don’t Have To
The skincare products I feel the least conflicted about recommending are cleansers and SPFs – even if you don’t really care about your appearance, these two items are still important and many people don’t use them or use bad ones. I’m a relatively recent convert to regular sunscreen use myself, but I have been pretty good about it in the last five years. And that’s largely because I discovered first Japanese and then Korean and Australian* SPFs.
A Korean Skincare Update
Sometimes I buy beauty stuff even if I don’t need it, or just out of curiosity or because I want to cheer myself up. I know I shouldn’t do that – it’s evidence that I’m trying to fill an internal void with meaningless objects, which in turn is all the result of a capitalist conspiracy to keep me unhappy and coming back from more. This is, broadly speaking, true. If I were a fully content, balanced, worthy individual, I could probably live without a ‘wardrobe of cleansers’. But sometimes I think that buying that new cleanser is a better option than despairing and berating myself over the fact that I haven’t yet reached complete enlightenment and still crave stuff. I mean – it’s just skincare. It could be drugs!
