#gifted I have been trying out 2 cult Korean beauty skincare products over the past 2 months and wanted to let you know how I have been getting on with them. They were kindly sent out from online beauty retailer, Skin Cupid, who are a UK-based online shop who offer a carefully curated range of authentic Korean beauty products, perfect if you’re a K-beauty addict or just want to explore some new brands. They have everything you could possibly need! The site is very easy to use and full of helpful information on what to use at each step of your routine, along with which products work best for different skin concerns. They stock everything from skincare to haircare and body care to makeup so it can be your one-stop shop for all things K-beauty.

Beauty of Joseon Revive Eye Serum

This eye serum has quickly become a daily staple in my skincare routine, and it’s easy to see why it’s so loved. With it having a serum texture, it is lightweight and does not feel heavy or greasy. The Beauty of Joseon Revive Eye Serum combines traditional Korean botanicals with modern skincare science, giving you the best of both worlds. With its 10% ginseng root and 2% Retinal Liposome, it tackles everything from dark circles to fine lines, so for me, it’s the ultimate firming and lifting solution for tired-looking eyes.

• Retinal Liposome – Gentle vitamin A, boosts collagen, smooths fine lines.
• Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) – Brightens dark circles, evens skin tone, strengthens skin barrier.
• Hyaluronic Acid – Deeply hydrates and plumps the skin.
• Ceramides – Maintain moisture balance and strengthen the delicate under-eye skin.

Traditional Korean Botanical Ingredients:

• Ginseng Root Extract – Firms, reduces puffiness, revitalises under-eye skin.
• Green Tea Extract – Antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, soothes and protects.
• Mugwort (Artemisia) Extract – Calms irritation and heals sensitive skin.
• Rice Extract – Brightens, hydrates, improves texture.
• Centella Asiatica  – Repairs and soothes, strengthens barrier.
• Licorice Root Extract – Brightens dark circles, evens tone.

I have really enjoyed using this eye serum, it has slotted into my skincare routine and I often use it morning and night. I have been using it for almost 2 months and have noticed my skin looks smoother and brighter, which means my concealer applies better, creases less throughout the day and on the days I don’t wear makeup my eyes don’t look as dark or tired. So I am thrilled with the results and the price is so affordable, which is always a bonus, I also like the tube packaging with the pump lid. If you’re looking to address under-eye concerns without breaking the bank, I highly recommend adding this to your skincare routine.

I will be having a browse through their other products to see what else I can try, I have heard very good reviews of the Dynasty Cream and their SPF.
