ERBORIAN
Yuza Sorbet Night Moisturiser

A nourishing night cream designed to repair and replenish the skin during the most important period for skin cell regeneration. Skin is left feeling smooth, firm and protected.

Though not particularly a fan of ginseng — the scent mainly — my curiosity peaked when I came across this particular night cream from Erborian called, Yuza Sorbet Night Moisturiser. It also made the Bon Visage list over at Style.com.

Sam Oh was the host for the Sunsilk Life Can’t Wait Event that I attended a few days ago. While everyone else was busy photographing the three image models (Maja Salvador, Heart Evangelista and Marian Rivera) I found myself standing two feet away from the host, hence, allowing me to take this photo of her.

Isn’t she pretty? Anyway, Sam mentioned that she’s been meaning to update her blog (she failed to mention its URL) but haven’t had the opportunity to do so. Too busy, she said. I wish I had the chance to ask her a bit about beauty stuff. Ah, well. Another time, perhaps? Hehe.

This multi-lingual (Korean, English and Filipino) Korean beauty was the host of the now defunct Rated Oh! on Solar Entertainment’s ETC cable channel for eight seasons and a columnist of The Manila Times. (Source: Wikipedia)

Here’s a short clip on her “hosting” the Sunsilk event (video after the fold):

Just another thought coursing through my head over the weekend. Yea, we do have to take a closer look.

“…keep in mind that korean [sic] products have A LOT of chemical additives. Also, many products have special “whitening agents”, since the vast majority of Korean women want to have whiter skin, like foreigners. I have no idea if these agents actually work, but it’s what sells.

For better Asian products, look to Japan, which has been in the beauty business longer and caters to a variety of consumers, including those looking for all natural products.”

Is there any truth to this statement, which I found at a beauty forum?
