Clearing Up Confusing Beauty Product Terms

1. 1. Skin = Toner; same concept

 

The first step of basic skincare

Skin and toner are said to be terms included in cosmetic lotion.

Since the role of skin lotion is to refine skin texture and replenish moisture, you can consider skin toner and lotion to be the same concept!

 

2. Varies depending on the degree of concentration

 

Higher concentrations are more effective: Essence > Serum > Ampoule.

 

There are people who are curious whether serum, essence, and ampoule are the same thing, and if they are different, what the differences are!

The three products are similar, yet

Another reason is precisely depending on the degree of concentration.

It is because they are different.

Since it is highly concentrated, even a small amount is used to ensure that moisture and nutrients are well absorbed into the skin, which means it can be said to be very effective.

If we compare the degree of concentration

It's in the order of essence > serum > ampoule.

Please take a look.

 

3. Differences between BB and CC creams

 

I think you have probably heard of BB cream and CC cream, but the difference between these two products is their uses!

It corrects skin tone the same, but

Knowing how to use it increases its versatility, so please make sure to know which cream is used where!

BB cream soothes skin troubles and the face's

This product is designed to cover redness.

Conversely, CC cream has somewhat weaker coverage, but

Because it brightens the skin tone

You could say it helps with natural, transparent makeup.

 

4. Difference in texture

 

• Sheer: Glossy type

• Shimmer: A type that emphasizes gloss.

 

Sheer and shimmer have a difference in texture.

It is generally used in products with a shimmery finish, so you may have seen it often when choosing lipsticks and eyeshadows.

"Sheer" refers to a glossy type, while "shimmer" refers to a type that emphasizes shine. Since the feel changes completely with just a single letter difference, it is essential to test the product before choosing it, right?
