Orot Silbi is a casual izakaya near Gongdeok Station in Mapo, Seoul, serving Japanese dishes and drinks. I had uni samhap with gamtae, sweet shrimp, and negitoro, plus Suntory Premium Malt’s draft beer and fried chicken cartilage. Verdict: a polished, cozy choice for dinner or casual drinks.
HEEDA Glutathione High-End Glow Radiance Serum is a Korean skincare serum I used morning and night for about a week on combination skin. Its light, water-based texture absorbed quickly, and I felt my skin tone looked clearer and more even, without much irritation.
HEEDA Jirisan Moist Charcoal Cleansing Balm is a cleansing balm I tried for oily skin in Korea. It melted from a firm balm into an oil, emulsified easily, and left my skin feeling clean and less tight, though I focused more carefully on my T-zone.
HEEDA Jirisan Moist Charcoal Hydrating Cleansing Foam is a low-pH facial cleanser I used morning and night for over a year on combination skin that is oily on the surface but feels dry underneath. It felt less tight after washing while still handling sebum and my makeup well, though this review was written after receiving the product.
I tested the HEEDA Jirisan Moist Charcoal Cleansing Duo Set on combination skin, using the cleansing balm and low-pH foam cleanser to remove makeup and sunscreen. The balm melted makeup gently, while the black foam cleanser produced a rich lather and left my skin feeling less tight after washing.
I tested HEEDA Jirisan Moist Charcoal Cleansing Balm on wrist swatches and face makeup while dealing with winter dryness in combination skin. It melted into an oil-like texture and left my skin feeling less tight after cleansing, though I am still watching for changes in blackheads and texture.
