UNPA COSMETICS
One of Korea's hottest and best selling brands is officially here on Althea shores! Originally started as an online beauty platform, Unpa has recently released their own product range. With fun, chic branding, Unpa's products are made with organic and natural ingredients that are good for the skin, making them friendly for just about any skin type. We're excited to finally be bringing them to you, and we've round up their full range for a sneak peak (so you can find out a little more before you commit to buying). Here's the beauty breakdown on Unpa Cosmetics!
Bubi Bubi Lip
Unpa's best selling item to date, this is the product that has really put them on beauty lovers' maps. Made with natural ingredients, this gentle bubbly lip scrub uses a chemical peel that works to remove residue and gently whisk away flaky dead skin on the lips for a soft, kissable pout. It also creates a smooth clean canvas for lipstick to stick to, giving you a perfect application every time.
How to use: Pump out a small amount and apply onto the lips, gently massaging in circular motions. Leave on for 2-3 minutes till foamy, then rinse off with water and pat dry.
Bubi Bubi Face
After the success of their lip exfoliant, fans couldn't wait to get their hands on more! They used a complex made from pineapples, papaya and witch hazel and came up with a peeling gel that was suitable for the face. This gentle cleanser-scrub suds up to wash away gunk before gently peeling away dead skin cells. The result? You're left with bouncy, soft skin without any of the irritation.
How to use: Pump out a small amount and apply onto the face, gently massaging in circular motions. Leave on for 2-3 minutes till foamy, then rinse off with water and pat dry.
Pimple Brick
Specially formulated for those with acne-prone skin, this cleansing soap is made with basil, lupeol and centella asiatica extracts to soothe redness while controlling the skin's excess sebum production. This product contains no preservatives, artificial hardeners, fragrances or colouring, making it 100% natural and suitable for those with sensitive skins too. Plus, it's packaged in individual small portions, making it super hygienic to use!
How to use: Dampen skin and lather up soap with hands, then massage onto the skin in circular motions. Then rinse off and pat dry.
Peach Brick
Everything's peachy with this delicious cleanser! This block of fruitiness is naturally made with organic ingredients that are gentle on the skin, making it suitable for all skin types. It helps to whisk away dirt and impurities while brightening the skin, leaving you with a fresh, even complexion.
How to use: Dampen skin and lather up soap with hands, then massage onto the skin in circular motions. Then rinse off and pat dry.
Peach Me Up
Following the peach theme, this cream works to even out and brighten your skin tone for a natural finish(no weird white casts here!). Formulated with 71% peach extract, this cream doesn't contain any purified water, making it packed with nutrients for the skin that leaves behind a silky finish. Choose to use this on its own, as a makeup primer or mixed in together with your face base.
How to use: Pump out a small amount and smooth evenly onto the skin.
