Back at the studio with Peter! Peter: Hello.
Peter: That's the same camera... He hates this camera, okay.
Let me... let me change this.
Is this better? Peter: That is what?
Peter: Well, I don't know, when I watch it, I'm still gonna hate it.
Peter: Maybe this would be better,
Peter: If I just... That looks good!
Annie from Singapore, she said, "Good morning Joan and Peter,
The show "Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart Ryeo"
Is currently airing on local TV here."
That's really cool. Peter: Oh, nice.
Yes. So she's catching bits and pieces of the drama
And she loves Nam Joo Hyuk, he's the model, one of the princes.
And she said the beauty trend that she's most interested in
Is all natural cosmetic and skincare products.
That's what I love to talk about on my channel.
Peter: All natural ones?
Um, there are some organic ones,
Because we don't like harsh ingredients these days.
I feel like a lot of Korean brands are trying to go
For less ingredients and very gentle products.
Peter: I see you've brought some presents in here
Peter: And there's a lot of stuff and I'm a little bit overwhelmed.
So, please explain,
- So you thought that was food? - What, what this is?
Peter: Yeah, it looks delicious like we give away some rice furikake
Peter: I could imagine your open this... No way.
- and sprinkle it on your rice. No? - Uh uh, no way.
- Oh, no. - This one looks like a smart phone.
And then, here's one for men specifically.
Because I know, sometimes, people thinks skincare is just for girls,
but that is definitely not the case.
No, especially in Korea,
guys are really on board.
In the UK, I've got to say, my friends tease me a lot.
- Oh, really? - Just for using like sun cream.
- What? - Or moisturizer.
- Oh, no. - They're like, "You big girl, Peter."
I'm like, "You should see the boys in Korea
- they're wearing like foundation." - Yeah.
- And then they're like, "What?" - Yeah.
Yeah. They're like when you walk in a Korean beauty store
there's a whole section,
a whole shelf dedicated to men's beauty.
- It is crazy. - Yes.
This does look designed for men
- like I could see myself picking this up. - Yeah.
"Hero Likes Black."
"Men's Mask."
It says "Big pores, oiliness,"
- "and skin fatigue." - Right.
- That's what is gonna help, I assume. - Hm.
It looks pretty manly, doesn't it?
- Yes. That's for you. - It's black packaging. Okay.
And the final sheet mask is right here
and it's really cool, 'cause Koreans are all about a simple skincare and quick.
So, this is nice because it comes in steps.
So there's a cleansing foam, an essence and a sheet mask, all in one.
Oh, in here, there's little pouches of liquids?
- Yes. Perfect for travel. - That's cool.
- Amazing, yeah. - And we're gonna have you try step three
- Okay. - of the mask.
Well, I'm looking at the back.
Um, step three, it looks really scary.
- This is step three. - Hm mm.
Looks like you're about to rob a bank or something.
It's black as well.
- It's really scary. - Please put one on.
- Wait, but these face masks, okay, - Okay.
- You say it's good for travel. - Hm mm.
I would just assume, don't you just do this rarely?
Or do you do this regularly?
I do this every day.
- Seriously? Is that recommended? -Yes.
One pack a day is currently a trend in Korea.
If you're doing one pack a day, are these then fairly affordable?
Yes. Um, some of the sheet masks can go from 50 cents to a dollar in Korea.
- For just one? - Right. And I went... I was actually
- traveling to UK a month ago, - Yeah.
and I walked in to a store and they were selling these sheet masks for six pounds.
- For one? - Yes!
- What? - So, in Korea, it's very affordable
and there are so many different brands and options that you can go for here.
- You don't do sheet masks at all? - All right.
I've done them once or twice
- "Once or twice"? - and I just used them as a disguise.
Like I scared my friends.
- Well. - They came from England. I put one on
and like ran into their bedrooms, I said "rawr!"
And they got the shock of their lives. They thought it was like a horror movie.
- Okay, here you go. - I've never tried the black one.
Wow! So, you have the mask, and then inside...
Oh, my god. This is one thing I don't like.
It's all like the gooey, the moist and drippy and...
it's black. I've never seen a black one. - You have to get used to it.
- Yeah, there were so many - Why is it black?
different colorful for ones.
I think, nowadays, if you walk around the streets of Myeong-dong,
- Uh huh. - there are masks in the shape of pandas
- Oh really? - and there's favorite characters as well.
So what, you wear them and go outside with them on?
- No. Just when you're at home. - Just for home? And for selfies,
- Oh, definitely. - I'm sure, right?
Do you do a facial mask selfie
- from time to time? - I don't.
Do you sometimes, though, put these videos of you're wearing these up on?
- Not so much. - Look at that! That's so scary!
- No, it's... It's fun! - That would scare my kids so much.
Oh, my goodness. Look at that for Hallo-- but the Halloween it's perfect.
Look, I'm wearing an orange T-shirt like a pumpkin.
- Yeah. - And that packaging is orange, so
- I just put this on my face. - Yes.
Are you meant to prepare your face,
- uh, usually, like before you... okay. - Yes, you wash your face,
put toner on, and then you apply this on.
I like it.
- I like it too. - I wanna just wear this every day
- in this video. - You should. I brought you four.
Oh, thank you.
So, you can just, um... wait, so, sorry, compared to moisturizer,
what's better about this?
So, um, in Korea, there is a trend called, "The Ten Steps Skincare Routine".
- "Ten steps?" - Have you heard of it?
What the! It's too many, surely!
So, it starts with the oil cleanser, a cleanser, a toner, and essence,
an ampoule, an eye cream, a moisturizer, and like
- there are so much you do can with it, - Yeah.
but using a sheet mask really cuts it down,
- Okay. - So you can go on a skincare diet,
by using a sheet mask.
So what does that replace? Like all of them?
It replaces the essence and ampoules, and sometimes even the moisturiser,
- So, I... Can I take this off? - Please.
Uh, okay. So peeling this face mask off.
For anyone who's not watching, I was wearing a black face mask.
It was very sticky and cool.
And now I'm meant to dab it in?
- Just pat it in. - Pat it in?
It's really wet and gooey on my face now.
- And this just stays like this? - It does.
- When does it... - Well it will eventually start absorbing
into your skin,
- that's why you are patting it in. - Uh huh.
Okay. I feel a little bit like I haven't wiped my face after washing it
'cause it's still like wet and moist.
Do I look any different? Listeners out there
who are watching the video/radio?
If the answer's "No", then what a waste of time.
No. Your skin looks radiant, dewey and healthy.
Radiant, dewey and healthy. I love it.
Right. It's so funny because once I was doing a sheet mask,
and the man sitting next to me was so shocked at what I was doing,
- Wait. Where were you doing that? - In my-- In the airplane.
- On the plane? Wearing a face mask? - Of course! On the flight.
- You're serious? - Uh huh.
And then he was so confused, and I offered him one,
and he accepted, and we did sheet masks together
- on the airplane. We did! - Seriously?
- You converted him? - I did!
And I gave him another one that I had in my pouch.
Oh that is amazing!
I've never seen anyone
- do a sheet mask on a plane though. - Really?
Now keep your eye out because a lot of people do.
I'm guessing though they stay in their seats. Like they don't walk around.
And before you go, please show off your lovely nails
- These are my nails. - to the camera.
They are brilliant, multi-colored.
Do you do nail segments as well?
- On Euro, KGB stuff? - Um, I'm not very good at it.
I usually go into the shop to get them done.
That's so good! I wanna do that as well.
- Yeah! You want to? - Can we get you back some time,
- and we can do nails together. - Sure!
- Let's do it. I actually have the kit. - Seriously?
If any of my English friends are listening, I'm just joking!
I don't want to do that at all. I'm a real man. Grr!
Joan, thank so much for coming in
- for these past two weeks. - Thank you for having me.
I hope we can see you again
- in the studio as well. - I hope we do.
Thank you very much.
Uh, we've got a song break now. This one is Park Jae Bum,
and Kirin, with "City Breeze".
Thanks Peter!
Peter: Thanks so much. I had just worn this mask.
You missed the good bit. It kinda... It looked like this.
- That's amazing. - Yes it did.
That's what you need. You just scrub it on.
- Thank you! - Thank you!
I came home early because I wanted to focus on packing.
As well as getting all the videos edited and scheduled.
And then there was a package waiting for me.
So let's open this up real quick.
It's from Neogen.
I didn't order anything from them but,
They sent it over, so let's see what's inside.
Coming soon! KCON NY 2017 at Prudential Center (June 23-24)
Please visit the Innisfree booth at KCON NY!
It's another box with a flower on it.
Let's see what's inside.
This one's like overflowing.
There's a knit mask in here.
I received a couple, like 3 or 4, and I still haven't used it yet.
But I will get to that.
And then there is this box.
It's the Gold Black Caviar Essence, and the Gold Tox Tightening Pack kit.
That's a mouthful.
I'm guessing this is a new product.
Whoa!
There's this tightening pack.
Oh! Oh, it's like the...
What is it? Wine and Lemon Gauze Peels?
But I don't know what this is.
It doesn't look like it's soaked in anything.
Maybe you soak it in here.
Ah! You're supposed to saturate the pads,
With the whole bottle of the Gold Caviar.
And then, leave them in the refrigerator for nine hours.
And then use them.
Wow this is so interesting. Look at how pretty this looks.
Anyways, I hope you guys enjoyed today's broadcast vlog.
I asked them to film it so that I can include it in the vlog.
So hope you guys enjoyed listening to me and Peter.
And maybe I might go back to radio.
They were kind of interested in working with me
Again in the future. So stay tuned.
Here's a shoutout of the day for those of you guys who translated
And transcribed my vlogs.
Again I am forever amazed by how many languages
My vlogs get translated to. I really really appreciate it.
And I'm gonna end the vlog here.
