[Culture & Life Reporter Eunji Kim] Due to the prolonged rainy season, even "breathing exercises" have become exhausting. Whether you turn on the air conditioner or the dehumidifier, the freshness lasts only for a moment. Since the weather itself is humid and hot, sweat drips even when you stay still. As the "midsummer nightmare" fully begins, it’s time to consider how to overcome the challenging August.

Your whole body is sending out distress signals. Excessive sweating causes sebum to erupt, and naturally, troubles peek out. Even showering with cold water doesn’t keep the cool feeling for long. If a "bloodstorm" even blows in women’s intimate areas, you might just want to become a stone without doing anything.

Therefore, we gathered beauty items that can slightly lower the "midsummer nightmare index" and open a new world amid the heat. From all-in-one cleansers that cool down the overheated skin temperature and provide freshness, to unique treatments (cream patches) that quickly calm troubles, and feminine cleansers that bring peace to the angry Y-zone.

The refreshing mint scent wraps around me...

Dr. Bronner's Peppermint Pure Castile Soap

Dr. Bronner's 'Peppermint Pure Castile Soap' is a cleanser that has emerged as a summer shower essential with the thrilling cooling sensation of peppermint oil as its weapon. The peppermint scent that swirls as soon as you create foam gives a unique "refreshing feeling," and you can experience your previously hot body turning cool. It feels like immersing yourself in a fresh and sweet mint ade. On days when you shower with 'Peppermint Pure Castile Soap,' the heat and humidity you face the moment you leave the bathroom are no longer frightening.

The more foam you create, the stronger the cooling sensation becomes. According to Dr. Bronner's, on hot days, if you don’t rinse off the foam immediately but wait 10 to 15 seconds before rinsing, you can feel even cooler. The natural peppermint essential oil in 'Peppermint Pure Castile Soap' not only lowers skin temperature but also helps control sebum. It can also be used as a shampoo, cooling down the scalp heat aggravated by outdoor activities. Although it can be used for facial cleansing, if your skin is sensitive, it is recommended to use it only for body showers.

Happiness and peace for the Y-zone...

"Easy and simple care for the Y-zone."

- Uriage 'Jinpi Mist'

Uriage 'Dermis Mist'

Uriage 'Jinpi Mist' is a feminine cleanser designed for those who want to live comfortably in an already complicated world. As the product name suggests, you just spray it like a mist. Pressing the spray button once releases a generous amount, making it quite economical. The spray power is fairly good but not enough to overwhelm our delicate and sensitive Y-zone. If you are sensitive to texture, spray 'Jinpi Mist' onto a soft tissue and use it to wipe the Y-zone.

Every time you spray, you realize how cool 'Jinpi Mist' is. It’s truly refreshing. Using it after your morning shower keeps that freshness lasting until the afternoon. Since starting to use 'Jinpi Mist,' itching and discharge have visibly decreased. During menstruation when a "bloodstorm" rages, it is recommended to spray 'Jinpi Mist' on a pad. The cooling sensation rising from below helps soothe the mind.

Let’s break up with troubles quickly...

"It’s a cream, but it was a patch(?)"

- Estra 'Theracne365 Sulfur Clear Treatment'

Estra 'Terracne365 Sulfur Clear Treatment'

I thought it was just a common trouble patch item. It wasn’t. Estra 'Theracne365 Sulfur Clear Treatment' is a class-above acute trouble control care cream patch. Thanks to this item, there’s no longer a need to embarrass yourself by wearing trouble patches all day long. 'Theracne365 Sulfur Clear Treatment' targets troubled areas intensively with a once-a-day care method before sleep.

Once a day, apply a thin layer of 'Theracne365 Sulfur Clear Treatment' on the troubled area, and after 15 to 20 minutes, that part turns into a patch. Do not touch the patched area anymore, and in the morning, gently wash it off with a light cleanse. You will notice that the trouble has visibly calmed down, though not completely gone. 'Theracne365 Sulfur Clear Treatment' is a "survival item" that is good to keep using over and over.
