There is no denying the fact that Korea is an epicentre of great skincare. When it comes to Korean Skincare, the results are visibly clear and the products are very efficient. I got a chance to try couple of products from Korean beauty brand Caolion which is fairly new in the UK.
Caolion is an advocate for natural beauty and they created products by harmonizing and enhancing traditional Korean skincare secrets with modern technology. Caolion’s Founder Eun Hee Joo believes that Edible cosmetics will not irritate skin! She created products with tasting each ingredient thinking if the product is edible it will not irritate those with same skin concerns. Caolion Cosmetics excluded irritable chemicals on the skin used for instant effects and focused on essential moisture and nutrition that promote natural beauty and health of the skin.
This cleanser duo from Korean skincare brand Caolion will get you addicted for pore cleansing & tightening effect. The top cleanser (Pore Purifying Steam Foam Cleanser) from the duo has brown sugar and konjact root which warms up after 10 seconds of application and massaging. This cleanser completely removes all impurities, exfoliates your skin leaving it smooth and nourished after washing the product off your face. This leaves your skin squeaky clean (if that makes sense) and is best suited as a Night time cleanser. I like to use this once a week as this is definitely a father of all cleansers in my skincare stash.
The bottom (Pore Tightening Cooling Foam Cleanser) contains sea salt, eucommia bark, kaolin clay that has a cooling effect on the skin. This cleanser will soothe your skin, tighten the pores and gently cleanse it. During cleansing, when the temperature goes down with cooling effect, this cleanser depuffs skin and tightens enlarged pores for skin firmness and contouring. This is more like a morning cleanser as it is very gentle on skin and tightens pores for makeup application.

Overall thoughts: These cleansers deep cleanse, detoxify and add brightness to my skin and will definitely be a great find for you. This cleanser duo is 100% made in Korea and is available at Boots. It is definitely worth trying.
After enjoying the cleanser duo for over a month, I got to try another product from this fabulous brand and its their Pore tightening day & night cream duo. This duo contains Pore Tightening Bounce Cream on top which is a day cream and Pore Tightening Memory Sleeping Mask which is an overnight mask.
Caolion’s Day & Night Glowing Duo’s unique light texture quickly absorbs into the skin, leaving skin calm and moisturized throughout the day. This pore tightening bounce cream provides natural luminous skin – a perfect canvas for makeup while the memory sleeping mask tightens pores and help to get radiant skin overnight. This bouncy texture cream absorbs quickly into skin with cooling effect, leaving the skin for long lasting refreshment. This cream also hydrates dry patches and enhances skin complexion.
Shape memory formula helps to maintain youthfulness by tightening pores and enhancing elasticity, leaving skin smooth and firm. This cream enhances complexion with brightening effect overnight. This also hydrates and nourishes skin , leaving skin brighter in the morning. This cream controls excess sebum and balances oil for a flawless skin. This soothes and lifts skin with cooling effect, providing firmness.
