AutoGrooming AutoGrooming Indigo Core is an alkaline car pre-wash tested during a self-service car wash in Korea. At a 1:100 dilution, it cleared bonnet grime first, while trunk grime needed foam and a contact wash. Verdict: convenient measuring and clingy foam, but stubborn grime takes extra steps.
The Day Tunteuntamin is a mango-flavored children's multivitamin-and-mineral stick product from Korea. During winter break, the writer's youngest son enjoyed its taste and the easy one-stick daily routine. Verdict: a convenient option for children who struggle with pills.
HEEDA Jiri Mountain Moist Charcoal Cleansing Balm is a Korean cleansing balm sold in a 100ml jar for 29,500 won. The writer, who normally uses cleansing water and oil, found that the firm balm spread smoothly once mixed with water. Rather than daily use, the writer landed on 1–2 times a week, on days with a lot of time outdoors or UV exposure.
비티냐 360° Rotating MagSafe Stand is a desk stand used in a home office in Korea for watching videos during meals and for work. Its smooth rotation, secure phone hold, and stable iPad support worked well, though the rear support initially felt a little stiff. Verdict: a tidy, dependable stand for a shared work-and-dining desk.
AutoGrooming Clean View is an automotive glass oil-film remover I tested on a shower booth and bathroom mirror at home in Korea. After rubbing it in with the included towel and rinsing, I felt the stains were reduced and the glass was smoother. Verdict: I was satisfied with this off-label home-cleaning use.
더데이 Tunteun Kids Kalmadi Plus K2 Strawberry Flavor is a children’s calcium-magnesium powder supplement from Korea. I tried it with my very picky eater and liked its sweet strawberry scent, low powder scatter, and one-sachet-a-day format. Verdict: My child happily asked for it first.
HEEDA Jirisan Moist Charcoal Cleansing Balm (HEEDA 지리산 촉촉 숯 클렌징밤) is a solid charcoal cleansing balm the writer melted on the back of the hand with body heat before rolling it over the face. Once the balm turned to oil it felt barely sticky, and after emulsifying with water and rinsing, the skin felt soft and moisturized. For anyone weighing a cleansing balm with blackheads in mind, HEEDA's charcoal balm left no tight, stripped feeling.
비티냐 360-Degree Rotating Portable MagSafe Stand is a compact phone and tablet stand used with a Galaxy Note 20 in Korea. I attached the included ring to my case, and it held securely for landscape videos while the weighty rotating head kept its angle. Verdict: compact, stable, and easy to carry.
AutoGrooming Cube Wash Line is a three-product car-wash set used in Korea for a car covered in bugs and stains after camping. We used Indigo Core Pre-Wash in a pump sprayer, then washed with Blue Edge Shampoo in a bucket. Verdict: the easy measuring and rich foam made the process comfortable for us.
The Day TunteunTamin is a mango-flavored children’s multivitamin powder-stick product from Korea. It is introduced as providing 11 vitamins and 3 minerals in one stick a day, and my daughter ate it well. Verdict: a convenient option for a simple daily routine and travel.
HEEDA Jirisan Moist Charcoal Cleansing Balm is a solid charcoal cleansing balm, and the writer used it about 2–3 times while sebum and breakouts around the nose were a concern in summer. Even as a solid balm, HEEDA Jirisan Moist Charcoal Cleansing Balm felt moist on the skin, and the writer found little residue after rinsing. A simple, comfortable cleansing step for oily summer skin, based on 2–3 uses.
비티냐 360° Rotating Portable MagSafe Phone Stand is a magnetic smartphone stand tested with an iPhone for videos and video meetings. Its rotation, height adjustment, and foldable design felt stable for both desk use and carrying in a bag. Verdict: a satisfyingly steady and portable stand.
