My skin is sensitive, oily and extremely acne-prone. It could be clear and smooth one day and then have awful pimple breakout the following morning. I've used a lot of beauty products and other products that promise to make my skin look better and deal with my sensitive skin.
Korean skin care products are in demand these days. But with so much brands to choose from, how do you know which one to trust and try?
I have recently been introduced to a Korean skin care brand called PURITO.
PURITO is a Korean brand in which the name comes from the word "purify" and a Chinese character that means soil. Purito means "safe and honest" natural ingredients that come from clean soil. Clean ingredients means safe even for delicate skin.
When I went to Korea last Winter of 2018, I brought all these products and used them in Korea. Aside from the great weather they have in Korea, I reckon the Purito produts helped me achieve a better looking skin. Some of the things I loved about Purito products was the scent of the products. They all smelled "pure" and minimal, as if I'm only putting water on my face. None of the "chemical" scent other products give. My skin type is sensitive so I really appreciated that the ingredients of Putito products are safe and natural. I was really impressed at how much it helped improve my skin despite being mild and natural.

Another great thing to note is that the products have very minimal chemical ingredients. They have excluded stuff like paraben, phenoxyethanol and more. The packaging is also minimal and simple, nothing too striking or over-the-top. I love that the products come in recycled boxes. Less cost on packaging, more focus on better ingredients!
HERE ARE ALL THE PRODUCTS I USED :
CENTELLA GREEN LEVEL ALL-in-ONE MILD PAD
This mild pad wipes away any remaining residue that sometimes gets left behind even after washing your face. It removes makeup residue and sebum and oil that tend to cause acne breakout. It helps stimulate collagen, activates cells and helps calm down inflamed skin and reduces pigmentation, too.
DEFENCE BARRIER pH FACE CLEANSER
This gel face cleanser has low pH level of 5.5. This helps maintain the skin's pH level while cleansing the face, removing makeup, dirt and oil. After using, you will notice that the skin feels fresher but still moist and dewy.
CENTELLA GREEN LEVEL CALMING TONER
The ingredients of this toner are effective in making skin smoother. It soothes and relieves damaged skin. It has high moisturizing effect that is safe for sensitive skin. Use if after cleansing the face to activate the skin for the next skincare steps.
CENTELLA GREEN LEVEL BUFFET SERUM
After using the toner, applying this serum will act as skin barrier. It has lightening, moisturizing and anti-wrinkle benefits. It has collagen, ceramide and hudraulic acid that will help improve the skin condition. The best part of this is that it feels mild on the face so this is perfect for people with sensitive skin that dislike the feeling of other itchy, sticky and stingy products.
CENTELLA GREEN LEVEL RECOVERY CREAM
This recovery cream is good for people with sensitive skin. It can help with collagen synthesis,it activates cells and also helps calm down inflamed skin and also reduces pigmentation.
CENTELLA GREEN LEVEL EYE CREAM
This eye cream is perfect for the delicate skin around your eyes. This will help with skin sagging and will also help with the slowing of aging process around the eyes. It has moisturizing power that will help against wrinkles.
SNAIL CLEARING BB CREAM SPF 38
This total solution BB cream provides skin with UV protection and also whitens the skin and provides wrinkle care to protect from darkening and uneven skin tone. This is perfect for that healthy, glowy look without the thick sticky feel other foundations give.
Overall, I was really impressed with PURITO products. To be honest, I have tried A LOT of Korean skin care products, some of them were good but some, despite being raved K beauty brands, still gave me acne breakout. With Purito, however, I noticed that the products are really mild and gentle. You might think that for a product to be effective, it must be stingy, itchy or should cause the skin to dry and peel. But for me, real effective products are those that work without you actually feeling it.
When I used Purito, I noticed that they are really gentle, even the smell is really gentle. I am most aware, however, that some K items could get pricey, especially for us Filipinos. That is why if you have limited budget to just buy few items first, I would really recommend you try the Defence Barrier, the Centella Toner and the Buffet Serum. Those three are my favorite out of the all products I used. All of them are good, though. It's just that the three I mentioned earlier really stood out! I have already finished the three and am thinking of repurchasing the Centelle Buffet Serum!

They ship outside of Korea so you have nothing to worry about.
