Many of you may relate that it's quite a hassle to carry around a lip product with you everywhere. This lip card is as thin as paper, so it's very convenient to carry around in your wallet, pocket, or your small makeup bag!

Since the card contains enough lipstick, it can be used up to 3 times. 

You can carry it around and throw it away at the end of the day!

2. Hair Laundry Tissue

3. Blackhead Remover Stick

Price: 11,900 KRW

Are you stressed about your pores and blackheads? I have been quite stressed as I feel that my pores have enlargened due to wearing a mask every day. Enlarged pores also won't help your foundation set properly.

If you squeeze blackheads, it will actually make your pores wider, and using nose strips hurt your skin. So it's time to try the blackhead remover sticks!

It is said that blackheads, whiteheads, and dead skin cells can be easily removed by simply rubbing the stick on the troubled area after cleansing. Since it's a product that is to be rubbed gently, it doesn't irritate the skin at all.

It also helps soothe and moisturize the skin as it is made with natural ingredients that aren't harmful. I added this one to my cart!

This magnet face mask gained a lot of attention when it first launched in Korea. It may sound strange at first, but it's actually made with harmless iron and natural ingredients.

You can apply this as you would apply a mud mask!

What's interesting is that the mask is removed using the magnet mask cleaner it comes with, not with water. 

Since the mask is removed using a magnet, there is no irritation to the skin while effortlessly removing dirt on your face. It's also super fun!
