Purito is a Korean brand that has launched a lot of cult-favorite products: from their sunscreen, although discontinued, to their Centella Green Level Buffet Serum and lastly their BB Cream, which many compare to the OG Missha M Perfect Cover.
In this post I’ll do a review of the PURITO Cica Clearing BB Cream and also do a comparison to the Missha one so you can see where the differences lie.

Holika Holika | Aqua petit jelly bb // Cosmetic
Taking a mini break with all the skincare reviews with...
✧ ✧ ✧
Tumblr media
A jelly BB that creates fully hydrated and shiny skin.
Holika Holika Aqua Petit Jelly BB SPF 20 in the shade Natural 02 is a jelly like texture BB that hyrdrates and covers up facial blemishes. It's key ingredients are Mint Water to hydrate and Marine Jelly Complex to create soft and bouncy skin. With SPF 20 to protect your skin from harmful UV rays.
✧ ✧ ✧
Tumblr media
Directions: With the spatula take an appropriate amount and evenly spread on your face. Patting gently with the sponge applicator.
Package: The BB comes in a cute little white square box. Covered in colorful polka dots, blue accent and the Aqua Jelly logo design in the front. Once open you're greeted with a message on the tab and the company's name; all light blue inside.
Product: The BB itself is in a glass jar shaped like a flower; 40 ml. A decent amount of product. A light blue plastic twist cap with a built in tiny spatula that you use to scoop up the product; covered with white polka dots and again the product name and company on top. Very high end feeling. I've never purchased a BB like this design before. Usually they just come in squeeze tubes. Oh and it comes with a generous sized sponge applicator.
Fragrance: It does have a scent; like a light fresh clean floral smell. It isn't too unpleasant or super strong. The smell starts to dissolve once applied and worked into you skin.
Texture: Jelly! Pretty much the whole schitick right there haha. It's bouncy and light weight. Smoothly glides across your skin. No sticky feeling or any feeling at all. It kinda feels like it melts into your skin so it doesn't feel like you're wearing anything on your face.
Price: It depends on where you buy it. Some places it's pricier than others. The place I purchased it was a fair price; the amount you normally would spend at drugstores and such.
✧ ✧ ✧
✎ 1st impression So far it's been pretty good. I like how it feels on my face, it's easy to apply, it doesn't cake or cause any dry flakes on my already dry Atacama skin. I personally am not a fan of floral scents, but it really doesn't bother me too much since it's not that strong. Since it's a lightweight texture it does take at least a couple of applications for me personally to cover what I want. It doesn't cover hyperpigmentation, but it does do a good job on covering the redness in my skin. Also evening out my skin tone. I think the sponge applicator that comes with it is actually pretty decent as well and I use that to apply the BB (just remember to wet it first). Surprisingly it hasn't irritated my face causing acne. Which is again wild since every single time I try something new my skin just wants to punish me. I'm guessing the mint water plays into effect here cause I read that the mint helps (well it's controversial apparently don't quote me I'm not an expert haha) with calming acne/redness that sort of thing, so maybe??
Okay and here's when things get weird... After I purchased the product (I didn't read the ingredients like a dumb dumb) on the website it states (even in the pictures) that it has parabens. Now... on my box product the parabens are non-existent. And my box is slightly different cause on the right hand corner it now has ERC (which I have no idea what that stands for). So I'm guessing I bought the newer formula that doesn't contain parabens?? Yeah I don't know. Just be aware if you're going to purchase this product to keep that in mind (I'll show pictures to compare down below). I'm not sure if I'm going to repurchase it incase they're existing parabens. They could have changed the ingredients cause I did notice they also changed the design box product to it's recent look now so again keep that in mind if you're really anal on using parabens.
✧ ✧ ✧
Tumblr media
The website's vs my box; I listed the ingredients down below from iherb
Ingredients: Water, titanium dioxide (CI 77891), hydrogenated polyisobutene, dipropylene glycol, dimethicone, sorbitan isostearate, methyl methacrylate crosspolymer, aloe barbadensis leaf juice, mentha piperita (peppermint) leaf extract, codium tomentosum extract, enteromorpha compressa extract, macrocystis pyrifera (kelp) extract, ecklonia cava extract, gelidium cartilagineum extract, laminaria japonica extract, mentha arvensis leaf extract, mentha rotundifolia leaf extract, imperata cylindrica root extract, caviar extract, atelocollagen, glycerin, triethanolamine, acrylates/C10-30 alkyl acrylate crosspolymer, stearic acid, sodium acrylate/sodium acryloyldimethyl taurate copolymer, aluminum hydroxide, triethoxycaprylylsilane, isohexadecane, polysorbate 80, sodium hyaluronate, butylene glycol, hydroxyapatite, peg-8, glyceryl caprylate, agar, pentaerythrithyl tetraisostearate, silica dimethyl silylate, sodium chondroitin sulfate, carbomer, disodium edta, methylparaben, chlorphenesin, propylparaben, potassium sorbate, sodium benzoate, fragrance (parfum), iron oxides (CI 77492), iron oxides (CI 77491), iron oxides (CI 77499).

previous chapter | next chapter | AO3
The party is bright, bursting with light and color and art. You can feel Hongjoong’s presence everywhere from the moment you step through the doors and you almost feel underdressed. You selected your outfit for him, something a little bolder than you’d normally do, but something that truly suits the occasion and the honored guest. You adjust the top of your black trousers and glance down to ensure the cream white blouse that is parted open is still firmly secured with the hidden tape you painstakingly applied.  You hope your lipstick is staying put. 
The listening party for New World’s new mini album is in full swing, but the night is about more than just that. Their tour has ended, everyone back on Korean soil, and it will be the first time anyone will hear the album from start to finish and the first time you’ll be face to face with them again.
Three months of nothing, no contact except the letter. The letter you’ve read about a hundred times. 
You texted Wooyoung, San, and Seonghwa of course, and they mentioned Yunho and Mingi occasionally, but always in the broader context of what they were doing on tour. You saw them in pictures, travel shots on Instagram or Snapchat stories of their nights out, but otherwise nothing. For three months you let it marinate, and your feelings haven’t changed in the slightest. All you have to do now is find them in this crowd and clear the air. 
It’s no surprise you’re as late as you are, your stomach was in knots getting ready and leaving your apartment had you practically coming apart at the seams. The idea of talking to them is simple, but you’ve rehearsed what you want to say over and over and you can’t imagine how they’ll respond. You take a glass of sparkling wine from one of the caterers and realize there are far more people here than you thought there would be. When you pictured a listening party you expected an intimate crowd, but the gallery space KQ rented is full of faces, some you know and some you don’t. You’re pretty sure you’ve missed the album playthrough at this point, you just hope no one’s noticed your absence. 
“You look so good!” A voice from behind you makes you turn, and you smile when you see Dahan in her sparkly wrap dress. 
“So do you,” You give her a quick, friendly hug. 
“This is your first one, right?” She asks, looking past you to find a drink tray. 
“Listening party?” You clarify, “Yeah,” 
“This is definitely the nicest one so far,” She all but whispers to you, “New World is pulling in that tour money now,” 
“Ah,” You nod. 
“Usually it’s at a nice restaurant or something, not quite so many people,” She explains, snagging a drink, “not that I’m complaining, dressing up is fun,” 
“Do you see Hongjoong at all?” You crane your neck and look through some of the bodies, but you can’t really see anyone else you know closely. 
“Mm,” She joins you, “no, but Yujin and some of the others are over there,” 
You follow her gaze, “Perfect,” 
She starts weaving through and you follow, keeping close to her and protecting your drink as you side step around and behind people. 
When you make it to the little circle of BB Trippin dancers, you slot right in alongside Dahan and give everyone a smile, “Hey,” 
Everyone greets you warmly, but you wonder absently where your little pocket of close friends are hiding. Yujin draws your attention though when she says, “Jaemin’s here,” 
“He is?” Your eyes widen. You barely ever see him, but it does make sense that he would attend an opportunity to bump elbows with people in the industry. 
“Mhm,” She nods, “I saw him talking to Yunho earlier.” 
Butterflies curl in your stomach, “Yunho’s here?” 
“Mhm,” She takes a sip of her drink, “somewhere,” 
“You look really nice,” Minseok interrupts, stepping a little closer so you can hear him better, “I like the whole, you know,” he gestures up and down to indicate he means your outfit and you nod. 
“Thanks,” You nod, “you clean up nice too,” 
“Oh yeah?” He shrugs, “Thanks,” 
You start to turn back to Yujin who looks like she has something more to say, but Minseok keeps going, “Have you met Hongjoong?” 
“Oh,” You start. 
“He’s a nice guy,” He continues, “you’d like his vibe, or at least, I think you would,” 
“Actually,” 
“I’m not sure if you know this or not, but it’s his voice that’s on a lot of the initial guide tracks we get,”
You do know that, but you nod and take a long sip of your drink, ice slipping down and connecting with your lip as you tip it back a little further. 
“He’s a bit eccentric,” Minseok continues. 
“Who’s a bit eccentric?” Seonghwa cuts in, stepping into the circle and cutting smoothly between you and Minseok, another drink for you ready in his hands. 
Minseok’s lips close. 
“Hi, Hwa,” You smile, “that for me?” 
“Of course,” He trades your nearly empty glass for the full one and leans in to press a fast kiss on your cheek, “you look beautiful,” 
“Stop,” You resist the urge to actually nudge him in front of too many people and give off the wrong idea about how close the two of you are, but you give him the best withering look you can. 
He ignores you though, “Who’s eccentric?” 
“Oh,” You do your best to keep the smile off your lips, “Minseok was just telling me about Hongjoong,” 
“Mm,” Seonghwa glances to the side at him, “is he?” 
“Artistic might be the right word,” Minseok corrects himself. 
“Well, that’s true,” You nod. 
“Oh,” Minseok blinks, “so you know him?” 
“Well, yes, I,” You start to say but Seonghwa cuts you off. 
“Speak of the devil,” He nods and when you turn you catch sight of Hongjoong heading right for you both. He’s dressed in the most decadent dark blue velvet suit you’ve ever seen, and the combination of that and his freshly dyed blue hair makes him look like more of an idol, not a producer. 
“My ears were burning,” Hongjoong says wryly, and then his eyes flick over you, “I love this,” 
“I thought you might,” You grin, moving forwards to greet him with a hug, “congratulations, Hongjoong, this is all beautiful,” 
“Thank you so much for coming,” He gives you a squeeze, “we keep missing each other for dinner,” 
“I know, I’ve been so busy lately,” You tell him, “but let’s plan something soon,” 
He nods and smiles and then turns his attention to the group, “Thank you all so much for coming,” he says. 
Minseok looks a little put out next to Seonghwa, and you hope you didn’t embarrass him, but he and everyone else greets Hongjoong and they loop through the congratulations on the finished album. Once pleasantries are done, he focuses his attention back on you, “I have someone I want you to meet,” he says. 
“Oh?” 
“Mhm,” His hand settles on your back as he turns to the group, “can I steal these two for a bit?” He nods his head towards you and Seonghwa. 
He doesn’t really wait for permission, he’s just being polite, and he steers you out of the circle and starts walking you back through the crowd closer to the stage area. 
“When did you get in?” Hongjoong asks Seonghwa as you walk. 
“This morning,” He says, “we were supposed to land last night but our flight was so delayed leaving LA,” 
“Thank you for coming anyways,” Hongjoong smiles, “I’m sure you’re exhausted,” 
“It’s fine,” He shrugs it off, “we’ll get back on timezone soon, I’m sure,” 
“Flight was okay otherwise?” You ask, but Seonghwa catches your eye and gives you a knowing smile. 
“Mhm,” He nods, “We’re all home safe and sound, I’m sure everyone else is here somewhere,” 
“Good,” Your throat feels tight, the idea that around one of these corners you’ll find Yunho and Mingi, “that’s good,” 
After three months without any contact, you’re going to have to physically restrain yourself from blurting out how you feel the second you see them. The last time they saw you was awkward at best, and considering the way you left things after the fight, the quickest way to confuse them would be to tell them you want them back with no apology, no preamble. But either way the words still form on your tongue in your imagination, and you’re mid internal monologue when Hongjoong stops walking and brings you back to reality. 
“y/n,” He says, gesturing to the couple across from you, “Seonghwa, I’d like you to meet Choi Jongho and his fiance Kim Eunji,” 
“Oh!” You can’t help the surprised sound that leaves you, “You’re the vocalist Hongjoong has told me so much about!”
Choi Jongho smiles politely, eyes flicking to Hongjoong, but then he nods, “That’s me,” 
“It’s a pleasure to meet you both,” You dip your head in quick acknowledgement. 
“So, you’re y/n?” Eunji says before Jongho can finish out the polite greetings and confusion runs through you. 
She’s looking at you with warmth and kindness, and it’s not often that omegas meeting each other for the first time are quite so positive and open. You’re used to a little hesitation, especially when alphas are around, everyone becoming a little territorial in mixed company, but Eunji seems unphased. 
“I am,” You nod as your brain starts to catch up. 
“Hongjoong mentioned you,” She explains at your confused expression, “I was hoping I’d get a chance to say hello,” 
“He did?” 
“Sorry, let me explain,” She smiles, “my little sister is debuting with your company soon,” 
“Oh!” Your brows shoot up and you run through the girls you’ve worked with to realize the common surname, “you’re Jiwoo’s sister?” 
“Yes!” She nods excitedly, “We’re very proud of her,” 
“That’s so nice,” You smile, relaxed now that you understand her abrupt familiarity, “she’s a very good dancer,” 
Eunji beams. 
“She’ll be debuting as main dancer,” Seonghwa nods, “for good reason,” 
Jongho smiles, his hand sweeping a warm line up and down his wife’s back, “Jiwoo says you and the others have been very kind during their preparations,” 
“Well,” You nod, “they’re working very hard, and I’m sure debut must be scary enough, there’s no need to add extra pressure,” 
“It is,” Jongho hums knowingly, and you recall Hongjoong mentioning he was from another idol group that had disbanded. You wonder idly in the back of your mind how difficult it really was for him judging by the brief expression on his face. 
“Exactly,” Hongjoong offers, “I thought you’d all like to meet considering the mutual acquaintance,” 
“Absolutely,” You say, “it’s been lovely,” 
Eunji is about to say something more, but Seonghwa’s hand brushes your upper arm and he leans into your ear, “At the bar,” 
“What?” You glance up at him and he nods past Jongho and Eunji. Your eyes follow his.  
The air leaves your lungs, but you feel Seonghwa’s thumb brush a comforting line over your skin, “Go,” 
“Hwa,”
“If you’ll excuse us,” Seonghwa interrupts you and gives a dazzling smile to your party, “her partners just arrived and it’s been a few months with the tour,” 
You’ll have to have a word with him about his word choice later, you notice the way Hongjoong’s eyes widen, but Jongho and Eunji just nod with understanding. The bond between alphas and their omega isn’t something to be taken lightly, and they take a step back to clear your path. 
You recover just enough to leave with normal pleasantries, “Thank you, sorry to run,” 
“No, no, of course,” Jongho nods, “it was nice to meet you.” 
“If I ever drop by the studio to see Jiwoo,” Eunji adds, “I’ll make sure to say hello,” 
“That would be nice, I look forward to it,” Your body is all but screaming at you to move now. 
“Well,” Seonghwa pushes you forwards, “I’m sure we’ll see each other later on in the evening,” 
Hongjoong says something more but you don’t quite hear it, and suddenly you’re being propelled forwards. Seonghwa dips his head towards you ear, “Good luck, be braver than I would be,” 
And then you’re alone, surrounded by bodies but alone nevertheless. 
You’re not exactly prepared for how you’re going to feel when you see them again. It’s been months, and the first thought that strikes you is how much they’ve changed in such a short time. Mingi looks broader somehow, but his face looks a little thinner and more angular, like he’s lost weight from all the performances and training and travel. Yunho’s hair is a little longer, the back a shaggier against his neck, but intentionally so, and the cut of his jacket makes his shoulders look wider. You want to barrel into their chests and tug them as close to you as you can, but instead you take a steadying breath and just give yourself a second to drink them in. 
You can’t stop yourself from smiling at the way they stand side by side as they wait for their drinks at the bar, and butterflies ripple through you, but despite everything you felt while they were gone there’s no fear. You just missed them, really and truly missed them. 
You’re moving before you consciously think it through and you watch their eyes widen when they see you coming, but it only spurns you on faster until you’re all but crashing into their sides at the bar. 
“Hey,” You’re just so happy to see them you can’t get the grin off your face, “you’re back,” 
“We’re back,” Mingi nods, and you can see the hesitation in his face. 
“I’m,” A million words run through your mind, but you settle on the truth, “so happy to see you,” 
“You are?” Yunho’s brows go high. 
“Yeah,” You step a little closer, letting the words you’ve been holding finally roll off your tongue, “this isn’t the place to talk, but yes, I’m happy to see you, I missed you both.”
Mingi exhales heavily and his lips quirk up. 
Lowering your voice a little more, you hold Mingi’s gaze, “I got your letter,” 
Yunho’s head twists to the side, confusion all over his face as he looks to Mingi for clarity. 
“We should talk,” You want to reach out so badly, but you hold it back for now, “but I wanted you both to know I’m sorry too, and I’m really glad you’re home now,” 
“Me too,” Mingi nods. 
“Good,” You sigh, “that’s good,”
“Are we okay?” Mingi glances between both of you. 
“Yes,” You nod, “I still think we should talk, we left things badly before, but I thought a lot about everything and I don’t want things to be uncomfortable anymore.” 
In the background you hear the speakers cut off the ambient music, and someone taps on a microphone to check that it’s connected. You glance towards the stage and see someone preparing to introduce Hongjoong. 
“Should we go somewhere?” Yunho asks, “Now?” 
The man on stage clears his throat into the microphone. 
You shake your head, “Not tonight, I want to be here for Hongjoong,” 
“Of course,” He backtracks. 
You reach for him this time, resting your hand on his forearm, “But maybe later this week when you’re settled we can just clear the air. I have some things I want to tell you,” 
He swallows tightly, and you can feel that he’s a little nervous but he nods, “Sure,” 
“I just,” You step back and look between them both, “I didn’t want you to stress about coming back to the studio,” 
The relief is palpable between all three of you as Hongjoong takes the stage, and Mingi says, “For a second I was worried you weren’t going to be here,” 
“No, I was just running so late,” You admit. 
“You’ve been okay?” He asks. 
“I am,” You nod, “you both are?”
“Good,” Mingi says. 
“Tired,” Yunho shrugs, and you suppose you can see a little of that in his eyes. 
“Seonghwa said your flights were delayed,” 
“Something like ten hours,” He sighs. 
“Are you sure you’re okay to come back tomorrow already?” You press them, “You’ll be jet lagged,” 
“We’ll be fine,” Yunho smiles a little at your concern, “don’t worry,” 
There’s a pause, a bubbling lull between you, but you can’t keep yourself from saying it, “I really am so glad to see you,” 
“Me too,” Yunho says. 
Mingi nods, but then his eyes flick up and he gestures behind you, “Someone’s looking for you,” 
You check over your shoulder and see Wooyoung lingering nearby and when he catches your eyes he points to his glass and then to you, checking to see if you need another and giving you a smooth out if you need one. You shake your head and turn back to Yunho and Mingi, “I should go,” 
“Okay,” Mingi says. 
You think suddenly if you walk away without making a plan you’ll think of nothing else all night until you can’t sleep, “Saturday,” you blurt out, “are you free?” 
“Yeah,” Yunho says and Mingi nods. 
“Let’s get dinner,” You say it before you can panic and take it back, “you can tell me about tour and I can… I have things I want to tell you,” 
“Just say when and where,” Mingi says, “we’re there.” 
“Okay,” You sigh, “good, perfect,”
You can practically feel Wooyoung hovering at your back and you take a deep breath as you step away, but part of you wishes you could just take Yunho up on his offer to get out of here. 
“y/n,” Yunho smiles a little, stopping you in your tracks, “you look happy,” 
“I am happy,” You tell him honestly. 
“That’s good,” He breathes. 
“Saturday,” You nod, “I’ll catch you both up on Saturday,” 
You see a flicker of something in Mingi’s expression, but then he smiles, “Wouldn’t miss it,” 
You turn before you lose your nerve and run straight into Wooyoung carrying two full glasses of champagne. 
“Everything okay?” He asks, pushing a glass into your hands, some of the bubbling liquid spilling over the sides and over your fingers. 
“Good,” You assure him, tugging him away from the bar and towards the back wall where you can talk to him unobserved. 
“I wasn’t sure if you needed rescuing,” 
“I didn’t,” You tell him, “I was doing fine,” 
“Shit,” He grimaces, “did I fuck up your moment?” 
“No, no,” You shake your head, “we’re meeting on Saturday, I’m going to talk to them then,” 
Something’s a little hurried in his face though, his eyes glancing past you again and again, and you can feel that he’s not exactly present. 
“Woo,” You start but he locks his eyes with yours and cuts you off. 
“I think I just met the love of my life,” He stammers, “I might fucking faint,” 
“What?” You hush him, pressing him back into the wall behind you, “Are you serious?” 
“I’m not going to faint for real,” He swats your hands away, “but I don’t know, y/n, I can’t breathe. My fucking chest is tight,” 
“Holy shit,” You manage. 
“I know,” He nods, “I know,” 
“You’re not close to your heat are you?” You probe him, wondering if you need to make a break for San and Seonghwa. 
“No,” He shakes his head, laying a cool hand on his flushed cheeks, “it’s nothing like that,” 
You nod relieved, “Well, then what happened?” 
“Okay,” He takes a long steadying breath, “you see that guy on stage? The one to the left of Hongjoong?” 
“Choi Jongho?” Your voice spikes up and he shushes you frantically. 
“No, oh my god,” He waves his hand to get your volume down, “he’s engaged, y/n, no, the other one,” 
You look to the left of Jongho and take in the third man on stage. He’s the one who introduced Hongjoong, his voice low and velvety soft. He has long blonde hair that brushes his collar bones, the top half gathered into a messy but chic bun. You can tell from here he’s handsome, devastatingly so, with a cool expression and his lips parted just enough to make you wonder how he kisses. 
“Oh,” You nod, “got it,” 
“Exactly,” He runs a panicked hand through his own hair. 
“He’s an alpha?” You surmise, “Did you catch his scent or,” 
Wooyoung’s shaking his head frantically before he can finish his words, “He’s a beta,” 
You can’t control the surprise in your expression, Wooyoung’s only ever really gone for alphas. It makes sense, most omegas do, considering the hindbrain of it all, but Wooyoung’s looking about as wrecked as you’ve ever seen someone. 
On stage, Hongjoong gestures towards the two men on his left and you switch your focus from Wooyoung’s whining panic to the man addressing the crowd, “I have one more announcement to make tonight,” he says, “something that would not have been possible to announce without Choi Jongho. I don’t think I need to tell you what a talent he is and how lucky we are at KQ to have brought him on. We have a preview of something we’d like to share, once again, something I felt very creatively supported in by Kang Yeosang,”
“That’s him,” Wooyoung hisses next to your ear and you refocus, “Kang Yeosang,” 
“Shh!” You hush him, but by the time you can hear Hongjoong again, he’s moved on to announcing that he’s going to preview Jongho’s new single, and you roll your eyes to refocus on Wooyoung, “So who’s this guy?” 
“Creative director,” He explains quickly, “album art, concepts, the works.” 
“Damn,” You manage. 
“He’s so fucking smart, y/n, you have no idea,” He breathes. 
“So you actually talked to him?”
“Talked to him?” He laughs, “I had his cock down my throat like thirty minutes ago,” 
“Jesus Christ, Wooyoung, that’s too much information,” You smack his arm. 
He rolls his eyes and continues, “We bumped into each other in the hall, like physically bumped into each other. I spilled my drink all down his nice white shirt,” 
The shirt Yeosang is wearing is still crisp white, so you assume there’s more to this story before he even keeps going. 
“I felt like an idiot,” He admits, “pulled him into the bathroom and told him I could fix it right up with a little club soda,” 
“Okay,” 
“He barely said anything at first,” Wooyoung continues, “I was just rinsing his shirt out while he stood there half naked looking like Michalangelo or something,” 
“I don’t think Michaelangelo was very cut,” You smirk. 
“The statute,” He swats you, “you know the one, don’t fuck with me,” 
“Okay, fine, go on,” 
“Anyway,” He sighs, “I was just talking, keeping the conversation going, fucking babbling while I washed out his shirt and then before I knew it he had me pressed up against the mirror with his tongue down my throat,” 
“Wow,” 
“One thing led to another,” He blushes again, “and then we just talked while I finished drying his button down,” 
“Wow, again,” You breathe. 
“I know,” He breathes, “I’ve never felt like this,” 
“Okay,” You squeeze his hand, “but, Woo, this is a good thing,” 
“I know, but I’m kind of fucking terrified,” He admits, “is this how you felt?”
“Pretty much,” 
“It’s awful,” He admits. 
“Tell me about it,” 
The crowd around you starts clapping, the speeches are over, and the men on stage start to head down the side steps to rejoin the crowd as the single begins to play. Everyone in the room is listening attentively to the music except you and Wooyoung. 
“What are you going to do?” You ask him, your voice low. 
“Go home with him,” Wooyoung checks his watch and then presses his untouched glass of champagne into your hands, “I’ve got to go,”
“Whoa,” You shake your head, “are you sure that’s a good idea?” 
“I’m a big boy,” He rolls his eyes again. 
“Text me his number, and his address,” You insist, “and check in with me tomorrow. If you don’t, I’m calling Seonghwa and San.” 
“Oh my god, please don’t do that.” He grimaces, texting you Yeosang’s contact information anyways. 
“Don’t make me,” You tell him. 
“Fine,” 
“Have fun, please be safe,” You’d take his hand, but yours are full of champagne. You hope the genuineness of your expression gets your point across to him. 
“I will,” he promises, “and I’ll call you. We’ll talk all about Saturday too, I just,” 
“I get it,” You nod, “honestly, I do,” 
“Thank you,” His eyes soften, “and please, don’t tell San and Seonghwa. Not yet,” 
“I won’t,” You assure him, “just go, be happy,” 
“You too, okay?” He smiles, “Whatever it is, you do it. You deserve it after all this,” 
Your stomach warms at that, and you know he’s right, you just want to do this the right way for once. Over Wooyoung’s shoulder you see the blonde man in question smoothly cutting his way through the crowd, and you nod towards him, “Get out of here, I’ll talk to you tomorrow,” 
He’s gone without another word, just a rushed smile as he weaves his way towards Yeosang, a bright and beaming grin now on his face. He’s a goner, you can see it clear as day. A brief flickering question passes through your mind of how this might affect his dynamic with Seonghwa and San, but given the way your best friend is lit up from the inside it doesn’t even matter. If you deserve to be happy like that, so does he, however it happens. 
With Wooyoung gone, you take a moment to survey the room, but you can’t find your group anymore. You see people from KQ you recognize, but your normal BB Trippin group is nowhere in sight and Yunho and Mingi are no longer towering over everyone at the end of the bar. You listen to the rest of the new single, something soulful and rooted in R&B just like Hongjoong had described to you all those months ago. 
As you listen to the crooning love song, your mind loops through the encounter with Yunho and Mingi, of every microexpression and you get lost in your plans for Saturday yet again. How you’ll tell them you’re sorry, how you’re ready to move on and to be honest with one another. How much you still want them, that you might love them. 
You don’t know how long you’re standing there by the back wall, thoughts tumbling over what-ifs when you’re brought back to reality. 
“Tough night?” A voice makes you jump, a little more champagne dipping out of your glasses as you turn to the side. 
“Hey, Minseok,” You laugh a little, “you scared me,” 
“Sorry,” He smiles, begging off, “I just meant the two drinks, and you know, hiding in the corner,��� 
“Oh,” You shake your head, “no, Wooyoung ran off and stuck me with his glass. Do you want?” You offer it to him. 
“Sure,” He nods, smoothly taking the glass from your hands. 
You take a quick sip from yours and clear your throat softly, “So, enjoying the party?” 
He nods, “It’s nice, but honestly I was just about to get out of here and call it a night,” 
“Me too,” You nod. You’d try to say goodbye to Hongjoong, but he’s been tied up all evening mingling, and without any of your friends in sight it seems as good a time as any to slip out. 
“Let me walk you out,” He offers, plucking the champagne from your fingertips and placing both glasses on one of the nearby side service tables. 
You probably would have finished it, and a flicker of annoyance passes through you, but you let it pass and nod, “Sure,” 
You’re not far from the door, and he organizes grabbing both of your checked jackets as he makes small talk, “Are you taking the train or,” 
“I’ll probably order a car,” You usually do when it’s late like this and you’ve had a few drinks despite the extra cost. 
“Me too,” He nods, passing your jacket over. 
You shrug it on and search for something to say, but Minseok isn’t as forthcoming and chatty as some of the other dancers, “Do you live closeby?” 
“More towards Itaewon,” He zips his jacket and gestures towards the exit doors that will lead you out onto the street. 
“Mm,” You nod, pushing through the doors. 
“You know, we could,” Minseok starts to say, but the minute you step aside you finally see some familiar faces. 
“There you are!” You smile, and your familiar group of dancers turns at your voice. 
Minseok says something else, but you don’t quite catch it and you spin to apologize quickly over your shoulder before rejoining your friends. 
“I thought you left,” San ushers you over to their group. 
“Good timing,” Seonghwa adds, “my car’s not far, you want a ride?” 
“Sure,” You nod, you’ll never turn down a less expensive rideshare. 
Yunho and Mingi are talking with Jaemin at the edge of the group, but you catch Mingi’s glancing eye and give him a smile. It’s impossible to just smooth over your last real conversation with them, but you’re trying to signal in every little way that you want to move past it, that his letter meant something. You’ll lay out the rest for them as soon as you get them alone. 
He smiles back, quickly catching that you’re about to leave and you can see that he wants to step away from the conversation he’s having about some missteps from the tour. 
“Have you seen Wooyoung?” San asks, bringing your attention back. 
“For a second,” You nod, but look away from quickly as you try to tell a vague white lie, “I think he already split,” 
He hums, but then Seonghwa gently taps your back, “Car,” 
“Oh, perfect,” You step with him and turn to the group, “goodnight everyone, see you in the morning!” 
Dahan and San both give quick, small waves. 
“Goodnight,” Mingi says, his conversation stuttering to a pause so he can address you, “see you,” 
“See you tomorrow,” Yunho adds, nodding. 
Your stomach feels like it might flutter right out of your body. 
“I’ll have him drop you first,” Seonghwa says as he helps you into the car, jogging to the opposite side to get in himself. 
As the car pulls away you feel lighter than you have in months, and seeing them again makes everything feel so much more sure. They’re real, they’re back, and they want to see you too. Everything else falls to the side, for once the path forwards is crystal clear.

Kimchi anon lol 🤗
I love what you wrote so so so very much!!
The pool is used because it’s easy to get in America and easy to hose off after but they have the tarp in Korea and you can probably use it for anything but tbh I’ve only ever seen it used for kimchi since that’s the most common thing to make at home with it.
https://youtu.be/W87fOBWnpsM?si=2z-TP5Ss1DW9sHLf
Is a pretty good video to get an idea of what it’s like. Lots of work, but it’s fun with everyone joining.
And at the end everyone is sent home with a shit ton of food.
I’d kind of tease Simon a bit for washing off the spice on his kimchi like you would do for a child but if anyone else teases him it’s like “hey 😡 he’s my baby only I can tease him” and then feed him more washed kimchi 🤣
I eat ghost pepper food so I’m kinda spice broken.
Awww I just love the idea of everyone coming over and making food together 😭 I’d want to make it a yearly thing.
I’d probably send things when they’re away or before Simon goes off to do god knows what, I’m shoving a bag of goodies for the trip over and possibly the others.
Omg. I’d die if they started calling me “Noona” (older sister) 😭❤️❤️❤️
I know Price is older so he wouldn’t, but it’s still cute for the others!
OH. Sorry kimchi anon again. Milk is best for getting rid of spice in the mouth! (He needs some milk 😂) poor Simon. The first bite he takes is followed by coughing and trying to play it off as swallowing funny, but water will only make it worse. Probably give him milk or even ice cream poor bb. Do you think Soap has good spice tolerance? I need more spice buddies to eat with.
aaaahhhh thank you for the video!!! That looks like so much fun with everyone getting together and preparing all the veggies before seasoning the cabbage. (Simon probably commandeers any sort of vegetable cutting, let's be honest). Also, I can only imagine how good the place smells while all this is going on.
Also what do you mean water makes it worse!? I knew milk was better for spice, but I didn't know water makes it worse!! But yes, Simon definitely tries to strongman it out, but you can totally tell by how red his face gets and how much he's coughing that it is Way Too Spicy for the poor guy lol. (He needs some milk!!) The rest of the group will try to poke fun at him for it, since they all have much better spice tolerance. Until you scold them for it, anyway lol
"Shut up, only I'm allowed to make fun of him," you say as you hand-feed him more washed kimchi lmao
They'd love making it a yearly tradition!! It'd be something they all look forward to, I think. Just a day with good food and good company. You know they're also asking Simon if he brought any food every time he shows up on base to go on an op.
Soap and Gaz would totally start calling you noona. Get them hooked on any kind of Korean show and it just becomes their go-to nickname for you once they find out what it means.
Also, Soap's spice tolerance is through the roof. He puts the rest of the team to shame. Totally eats ghost pepper food with you, and makes it his mission to find something Too Spicy (he hasn't found it yet). Gaz is a close second, and can definitely hold his own, but Soap's still got him beat.

Hi, I've been patiently on hold now. Long time listener. Its a bit of a stretch, but could I request "LIKEY" from TWICE? My 30 year old Asian-American wife is working around the clock over the holidays to finish a project with a bunch of her male coworkers, and hearing this on the radio would be a nice way for her to relax and hopefully destress for a bit!
“A trip to Korea for a little Twice. Here is “Likey””
Finally! It was your request. It felt like you had been waiting for months. The song played out. You really hoped your wife enjoyed the song. She had been working so hard. The catchy tune soon filled your ears.
Fluttering heart me likey Me likey likey likey Me likey likey likey Pit-a-pat Pit-a-pat (Heart Heart) Me likey Me likey likey likey Me likey likey likey Pit-a-pat Pit-a-pat
[Verse 1] Keep wanting to show it all again and again Every single little thing Inside the small screen, I wanna be the prettiest Yet still, I hide my feelings deep inside It takes so much effort to get the perfect look But it is something I can never give up Makes my heart beat every day, It's something you must never know Then I go on pretending [Pre-Chorus] BB cream pa-pa-pa, put on some lipstick mam-mam-ma Pose for the camera, aren't I pretty When you see this, make a smile and press hard On that cute red heart heart down there
Suddenly, you realized, you had understood the Korean words perfectly. You struggled before to learn anything even at you wife's insistence. You couldn't help but do a cute little dance to the pop tune, jumping around like a girl.
You begin to shrink in height and build, becoming increasingly slender and short. Your whole house seemed so much larger now. You look so cute and petite now as you wiggle your hips.
Your hair quickly streaks into a gorgeous deep, rich black tone. It begins to grow long and luscious. Your eyes become copies of your wife. You look like she did at 21, like her cute younger sister now. You decide to go to her vanity and just perfectly know how to apply make up so you enhance your pillowy pout with lipstick and have a thin line between cute and sexy.
The song echoed in the halls as your clothes changed to a tiny mini skirt and a matching crop top. A modestly enhanced butt puffed underneath the swirling skirt. The crop top stretched to cover bouncy little d cups. Definitely not natural for you, but nothing obscene.
You can still feel your cock dangling between your legs but you looked like a beautiful young woman now. It made you hot to think about how happy your wife would be to see you here waiting to please her.
Your poor unni! She worked so hard. You should go find her actually. You skipped around the hallways listening for the clicking and clacking of her busy computer work. As you followed the sound, your mind felt fluffy and pink asd you walked towards her.
Inside the room, you opened the door to her sitting in a leather business suit. Her coworkers were in different positions around the room, obeying her orders, hoping to please her by completing any and every task she assigned.
She noticed you as you bounced towards her puffing out your cheeks into a cute face, begging for her attention.
“Let’s turn that aegyo to some ahegao!” She smirked at you as she pressed you back into bed. She goes under your skirt finding your cock still there all though much smaller. She begins stroking when you say.
“Me likey me likey likey likey” you moan in a high pitch voice.
"I do too, and I am sure my coworkers will too cutie"

Erborian Korean Skincare
#Gifted It has been so nice to try a selection of Erborian’s best selling/hero products, a great introduction to a brand I have heard so many wonderful things about. Let’s start with the 3 skincare products, Red Pepper Paste Mask, Ginseng Super Serum and the Ginseng Infusion Total Eye Care, all three are focused on reviving tired, lacklustre skin. Exactly what I look for in skincare, I have quite…

Hello my love, I am very humbly wondering if you have any suggestions for media (podcasts? Articles? Sky written advice?) that talks about skincare (or just general health) stuff so that I can be as informed as you. Of course not asking for you to educate me any more than your previous post did that’s totally not your responsibility, there’s just so much out there for health and skincare stuff that I get lost and am not sure what to take as fact or just something that someone’s trying to sell you on so if you have any favorite outlets I suppose I’d love to hear them! Also feel free to completely disregard this 💜
Oh hai! I don't mind at all, though I don't really have just one resource. Most information has been compiled over the years from so many sources and trial and error.
Finding out I can't use most stuff with hyaluronic acid in it was not fun and very puffy, haha do spot tests on new things. And when I complained about body acne as a teen, my family doctor asked how often I washed my sheets, and being a teenager it had been uuuuhhhhh, A WHILE. Lo and behold better habits = less painy pimples on my thighs.
I will say Sawbones is one of my best resources overall for what is and isn't modern snake oil! For example, I'm pretty sure they're where I learned that any topical-use-only lotion that claims to contain collagen is a scam, as the collagen molecule is too large to be absorbed into the skin. Syd isn't a dermatologist but a family doctor sure as heck knows when a "skin toxin cleanse" is just tea that makes you poop.
Learning to read user product reviews discerningly helps too, for all things, not just skincare, obviously. But with personal products, you especially want to deduce how LONG someone used a product before reviewing, good or bad. At my job I would have women calling upset that an eye cream wasn't diminishing their dark circles...after using it for a week. In my experience, products that ACTUALLY do the various things they claim take around a month to see noticeable results. Those are the reviews you look for: how long they used it, how well they seem to have read the product description and if they followed the instructions.
Also I had an Ipsy subscription for quite a few years, and I curated my bags to mostly be skincare products. So every month for $10 (now $13 I believe) I was getting a bag of samplers with about a month's worth of product in the jars and tubes, as well as fun masks. I paid attention to which brands and their ingredients I liked best and worked for me. They also include a lot of Korean beauty brands which truly do tend to have some fantastic natural ingredients. If the actual brand was too expensive for my budget, I'd seek out those same ingredients in more affordable ones! Some things stayed very worth it, though - I only use the Korean brand Purlisse bb cream for my makeup, for example, as it's so light and has a good SPF AND it's my very hard to match shade of pale, and that's worth it to me.
So not a ton, really just listening and retaining, doing a little ingredient homework when I REALLY am pleased with a product, and trying stuff out!

March favorites?
Tretinoin and a 2% BHA serum.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
These 2 are a very powerful combo. I only use BHAs once a week, there are people who use it every single day and it is true that is a lot more gentle compared to other chemical exfoliators but I do not want to overexfoliate my skin or disrupt my skin barrier again like last year (when I would use the highest percentages of Vitamin C, AHA, Retinoids every day) so I make sure I only use it when I really need it. I use Tretinoin for anti-aging purposes only, it does not require a prescription where I live so I can get it at any pharmacy. 0.1% is the highest concentration available on the market and some people purge like crazy but I have been using it for on and off 4 years so my skin is used to it. My skin is far from perfect and sometimes I break out due to hormones, stress or lack of sleep and I need products to improve my skin texture. One of my favorite things is applying my 0.1% Tretinoin on Friday night and on Monday my skin begins flaking, I take my BHA Serum massaging it into my skin and it gets rid of all my dead skin cells and I love how my skin looks smooth and glowy the next days.
Garnier Hyaluronic Aloe Replumping Superserum.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I would never really purchase something from Garnier. However, my aunt was recently diagnosed with preoral dermatitis (it's terrible) and her dermatologist told her to stop using any makeup or skincare so she gave me most of her cosmetics that I have been trying out the past few weeks. This is one of my favorites. Whenever I use a hydrating ingredient I always spritz my face with water first to maximize its benefits and this serum makes my skin feel so much more hydrated and fresh, it has a very calming & pleasant smell, and I sometimes add another layer depending on my skin's needs. It gives me the perfect base before I move on to applying my skin makeup. What makes this serum amazing is that it includes so many different hydrating ingredients - Aloe, Hyaluronic Acid, Glycerin... My skin loves this superserum so I use this one quite often.
Missha A'pieu BB Maker SPF 30/PA++
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This is another product that proves to me that Korean makeup products are amazing. The BB creams I've tried from Western brands have been lackluster at best, they never match my skin tone, they look off on me but I bought this in 212 Natural Beige and it is so perfect. It's called 'BB cream' but this product is so high coverage that I would almost call it a foundation. When my order first arrived, I was shocked at how small the product was, I thought I'm gonna finish it in two weeks tops but the thing is you put 1/2 a pea size on the back of your hand and realize you could easily cover your whole face with it. I don't know how that's possible but you really need soooo little, only a teeny tiny amount and it's something I still need to learn, I put a 3/4 pea just to be safe and it always turns out to be way too much. I know someone who works for Missha so I got this product at a heavy discount, I ordered 2 and she sent 4, what a darling and what an amazing excuse to buy more products!
Apple AirPods (3rd Generation).
Tumblr media Tumblr media
These were a gift from my mom, my Huawei Freebuds stopped working and I've been complaining about it nonstop so she surprised me with a pair of Airpods 3, she was torn between the 2 and 3 so she gave me the receipt to let me decide. I went in the next day and got them exchanged, and I love them. I can do calls, binge my shows, participate in virtual meetings, listen to podcasts on my way to uni, listen to music for hours on end with no issues and I would recommend it to anyone who is looking for a pair of good headphones, the battery lasts a long time as well. The headphones may feel weird at the beginning, like they could fall out any second which is why I was hesitant in the beginning but I got used to it, it does not bother me anymore. I also got a cute little case, it's silver stoned and I am not really a bling person but I did not want to get silicone because they stain and rip, I wanted to try something different, so I just went ahead and bought this one, I love how it sparkles and it is pretty much impossible to damage.
A White Long Sleeved Leotard.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I am obsessed with this long sleeved leotard, it is a game changer and I think this is the best purchases I have made this year. It literally solves 90% of all my cloth-related problems. When I go to the dance studio, I throw this on with my black leggings as a base layer, I just have to take off my skirt and I am good to go within seconds. The material is stretchy but very fitted and I love how the fabric feels on my skin, I also how it looks on me and how it emphasizes my slim arms and my small waist. The fabric is very thin but it is not see through so I can wear my cropped wrap tops and all my see through tops over it without looking frumpy. I love a fitted look so I can wear it on its own with a pleated dark navy skirt or a black pencil skirt (my favorite) as well. It is a 10/10 and I have already purchased many more in various colors and this is the type of thing I never knew I needed.
Love, Cat.

my dude how would a person who has never been interested in makeup learn how to apply light makeup like brows/concealer etc to look nice in events/dates 🫠 i only use sunblock and chapstick pls help a girl out
you can always look up tutorials on youtube i recommend violet_fr and haley kim! and also bc natural look is so trendy nowadays you'll easily find products that are beginner friendly my routine when i have to wear make up is just:
light coverage foundation - i've tried mac face and body/milk make up sunshine skin tint/laneige cushion foundation/happy skin cushion foundation and they all look natural on the face you can't go wrong bc they apply so lightly and you can use your hands or the provided puff there are lots of japanese/korean brands that have good bb creams and have a more natural finish too and they're cheaper than american brands
brow mascara - essence brow mascara, benefit gimme brow, you just brush these on ur brows and it gives them a more tinted/defined look and hold and if ur concerned abt brow shape i think it's best to go to a brow salon to get ur brows trimmed instead of reshaping them using 5 products to highlight/define/contour etc etc
lip and cheek tint - i personally use sunnies face blush, but milk makeup lip + cheek tint is great, quo also has dupes for glossier and rare beauty blushes, or even a really good cream lipstick that you can use for both ur cheeks and lips. i also use generation g by glossier for lips and blush, opt for cream to liquid products bc they're beginner friendly and are easier to blend with hands
mascara + lash curler - i use a japanese brand called ff mote mascara, essence princess lash is also very good and for curler i think u can just go to ur local miniso/daiso and you'll find a reliable one or even dollarama or dollar tree! u don't have to spend too much!
hope this helps!

THE KOREAN METHOD FOR WHITER SKIN USING THE KOREAN BEST CLEANSER AND OTHER PRODUCTS
It only takes six steps to achieve skin that is as white as theirs, including choosing the right product and using the Korean best cleanser, toner, serum, etc. to give you that flawless beauty.
1. Use products from the same line.
A Korean skin care routine consists of a minimum of ten phases. Along with sun protection and particular tools, these include cleansing, exfoliating, and moisturizing. Use the full series for quicker, better results if you want whiter skin. If your product mix comprises of numerous distinct lines, your findings might not be as favorable as you would anticipate.
Tumblr media
2. Use Korean best cleanser.
The first thing you should learn about maintaining healthy, glowing skin is how to properly cleanse. By this, we mean being able to choose a cleanser that effectively removes dirt, oil, and other impurities from your skin without drying it out. The next whitening creams and serum you'll be applying after washing will absorb better if you can find an oxygenated formula that also contains pearl essence.
3. Use a toner.
Although the word "lotion" is used in Korea, its functions are essentially the same: it thoroughly cleanses any dirt still on your skin and conditions it in preparation for the upcoming concentrated treatments. Simply place a few drops of the toner on a cotton ball and you're all set!
4. Apply a serum.
A serum is more powerful than a regular moisturizer. Due to its 250% higher concentration, it helps carry formulation further into cells. This means that it can also be used to brighten dark face pigments by using it as a spot corrector. Choose a whitening serum with high GenActiv levels because they can help stop the skin's melanin cycles and make it whiter and more uniform in tone.
5. Apply moisturizers.
Use moisturizers if you've ever wished for skin as glowing as that of Korean women. Use a gel formulation with alpine rose extracts for skin that is smooth and grease-free because they not only lighten skin's dullness but also help to lock in moisture.
6. Finish with BB Cream.
A BB cream massage is the final step in the skin care routine for Koreans. Purchase one with SPF for whitening purposes. They are perfect for skin with red or dark areas because they further offer even and sheer coverage. Simply apply a thin layer over hydrating your skin for a perfect appearance.
