The Best Blending: Balanced, Harmonious Beauty 'Hustler-Kuoka-Tom Ford Beauty'

#Vegan #CleanLife #SocialEnterprise #SelfTherapy

[Culture & Life Section Reporter Jeonghwa Choi] Consumers are no longer swayed by bestsellers and hit products. While the so-called ‘customizing’ consumption, which involves finding products optimized for oneself, was popular for a while, recently, due to the impact of the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19), a new trend of ultra-personalized consumption focused solely on ‘me,’ called ‘egoism,’ has emerged. Additionally, ‘meaning-out,’ a new consumption trend where people spend according to their beliefs and values even if the price is a bit higher, is rising. In this ever-changing post-COVID era, what we need is ‘a moment of rest.’ It is time to refresh body and mind with the best blending items born from the finest ingredients and optimal combinations for the weary self. If this also practices animal and environmental protection, it is the icing on the cake.

“Kitsch Self-Blending” Vegan Recipe ‘Hustler’

"Kitsch Self-Blending" Vegan Recipe 'Hustler'

There is a customizing ampoule that you blend and use according to your unique skin concerns at the moment. Introducing Hustler’s ‘Little Drops To Go Kit,’ which personalizes blending according to nine different skin conditions to maximize synergy. These days, I am quite into a cute home skincare routine. After cleansing, I examine my skin condition with a magnifying glass, place the necessary ampoules on the luxurious black walnut blending kit, and blend them with a water-drop-shaped wooden spoon. Then, I gently roll with the wooden massage ball on the back of the spoon. When the skin is sensitive and needs relaxation, choose ‘Relaxing Day (Soothing Kit),’ if the skin is dry and needs moisture, select ‘Full Glow (Moisturizing Kit),’ and if the skin’s balance is disrupted and needs maintenance, pick ‘Balance Master (Balancing Kit)’ for easy home skincare. Hustler’s Little Drops ampoules are designed to avoid ingredient conflicts or absorption interference. Also, the multi-use tray made of premium black walnut wood is perfect not only as an easy self-blending tool but also as a charming tray. ‘Hustler’ is a cruelty-free brand that does not use animal ingredients or conduct animal testing, uses eco-friendly packaging (Crush), and is a U.S. vegan beauty brand consistently fulfilling the mission of vegan beauty.

“Fresh Niche Blending” Fine Dining ‘Quokka’

"Fresh Niche Blending" Fine Dining 'Cuoca'

I am impressed by the freshness of the manufacturing date, less than a week old. It is a local cosmetic brand made in Korea, a beauty powerhouse, which makes it even more endearing. ‘Quokka,’ a niche skincare brand producing small quantities with the finest carefully sourced ingredients and top blending technology through various experiments, launched its fourth premium skincare blend last month. For ‘Quokka fans’ eagerly awaiting the comeback like idol fans, this is very welcome news. Compared to the existing signature serum blend, the ‘Repair Blend,’ a high-function anti-aging serum with a lighter feel, has a yellowish, thin cream texture that provides a non-sticky, refreshing finish. The finest natural ingredients combined with Quokka’s triple truffle blending technology help recover damaged skin tissue and regenerate cells throughout the summer. Additionally, a rich organic floral and fruity scent naturally blends into a soft and fresh oats fragrance that penetrates deep into the skin. This natural fragrance is extracted using a 100% organic method created by Jean-Charles Sommerard, known as the Picasso of perfumery. Furthermore, consistent home care with Quokka’s premium blends, including toner blends, results in noticeably clearer skin and smooth texture. Pursuing fine dining, the K-brand ‘Quokka’ is a social enterprise that donates 1% of sales to social foundations chosen by consumers for the future of people and nature. Quokka ‘Repair Blend’ 30ml
