Hello new/old readers! If you haven't know me yet, let me introduce my self. I'm Kakda aka KD. I'm working on both Kworldstyle and Kfashionsm. I personally love fashion, food and sleep! -.-

My topic today is about skin care for men. Right now, it's early spring and late winter for men in Korea and the states. Let just start off with what my skin is like, so you can get an idea of how this stuff really works. I have a Combination/Acne prone skin which can be a normal thing for a teenage boy,  but the problem is that my skin changes a lot throughout the year, which can mess up my current skin care routine.

In Korea looking perfect is a priority. Men get facials done by a professional dermatologist most of the time, but in America it can cost a lot $$$$ for just visiting the dermatologist. Korean men in general are very sharp and clean, by that I mean taking care of themselves is very important. As you can see, Korean idols or boybands such as SHINee, Super Junior, BEAST..etc. have such lovely/milky skin because they keep up with visiting the dermatologist very often. So here are some products that I used daily in my routine to achieve a good looking skin (in my opinion).

DISCLAIMER just because these products works on my face doesn't mean they will work on you; please keep in mind that everyone has their own kind of skin. All the products mention below are bought with my own money and are not being sponsored in any way.

Cleansing/ Exfoliating:

It's important to wash your face daily so you can get rid of bacteria or dust on your face, but you only wash your face about 1 to 2 times a day because washing your face more often can get rid of the natural oil that sits on your face which can lead to severe dry skin.

Step 1: Removing any makeup (BB cream,concealers..etc.)

I like the Neutrogena makeup remover cleansing towelettes, because it does a good job at removing any excess makeup or dirt, and it doesn't make me breakout.

Step 2: Cleanse.

It's important to make sure you also clean your face with an appropriate cleansing soap.

My current favorite is Neutrogena Acne Cream Cleanser, first of this product contain about 90% of natural ingredients, and it's great for Acne. What else could you asked for?

Step 3: Exfoliating

 It's good to exfoliate your face/body once or twice a week to get rid of your the dead skin cells.

My recommendation would have to be the St.Ives' Apricot Scrub, it contains 2% Salicylic acid which is a plus for those of you that have acne prone skin. Although, keep this in mind, DO NOT EXFOLIATE EVERYDAY!

Hey guys, you know what's an important, oft neglected aspect of style? The mood.

 By that I mean, if you're going to look fantastic, you have to feel fantastic, so anything you do to get ready has to set the tone. That means, yes, wear your sexy lingerie if you're getting ready for a date. Or, eat your favorite food for dinner before you go on stage. 

I'm here to help you set the tone for a great evening with music.

Hello and welcome to Kfashionism! 

Do you guys know me? My name is Ninillie (or Nini for short) and I used to be a writer for Kworldstyle.com. Together with some other fashion-interested people, we have started this all new Korean fashion site, which we named Kfashionism! This is our very first post, and I hope you girls (and guys) will like our site and stay with us for a long time ^__^. There is going to be many fun and interesting things here, so look forward to it and please watch over us as we grow bigger and better!

So, back to topic! This segment is going to be about trends I personally spot on the streets and in the shops of Korea (Yes I live in Korea, no I'm not Korean xD). I hope that it will give you a better sense of the Korean fashion-sense and that it will inspire your own personal style!

Spring is coming up. That means warm weather here in Korea ~ it also means away with the winter clothes and bring out the cute spring clothes! But what is trendy? What should we wear? Here is what I personally spotted in the many, many fashion shops of Seoul and Incheon.


Sweaters
Even though the weather might be nicer here than from where I come (cold Scandinavia), it can still be pretty chilly in the spring time. But don't worry, the trends keep this in mind. Knitted sweaters are THE hit here! A bit chunky is the best!

We've seen a lot of stripes the last couple of years but this year, stripes seems to be dying a bit out - now it's time for fresh colours! The most popular colours are mint, light bright blue, coral, and yellow - yes, yellow. Not mustard or orange - no, yellow. :)

Here are some great examples, all from Plastic Island. Pick your favourite! Spring yellow, minty blue or cute dotted.

Skirts 
...are always popular in spring time. This year we're looking at the slightly shorter version (above the knee, but please no mini-skirts), skater shaped with floral or lace for a cute girly look. There are so many cute floral pattern skirts out there right now, I hardly have to look for them.

Here are two good examples of what you should look for this season. The leather-ish skirt is from Stylenanda and the cute floral skirt is from Plastic Island.

Make up
You want your make up to be fresh! BB cream, a bit of creamy blush and lightly coloured lips, a touch of eyeliner or just mascara and you're good to go. Combine it with glittery nails and if you really want to be pretty, add a tiiiny bit of pinkish eyeshadow or maybe even some shimmery eyeshadow. 
The Juicy Cocktail polish kits from Etude House  is a good basis - it has a variety of bright, pastel colours and pretty much sums up the concept of this year's Spring make up.

TIP! 
Invest in a volumizer for your skin! Etude House has a good one. It makes your skin look dewy and fresh ~ you can mix it with BB cream or just use a bit on your cheeks to make you look fresher. Go for one without shimmering effect though. 


Shoes
Korean girls might be short, but they don't make a problem out of it. Actually, they use it to their advantage! :) Flats are THE spring item you just MUST have! Go out and find yourself a cute pair of flat shoes - preferably in an Oxford-style or ones with a simple design. These are both from 8Seconds, and I'm getting them myself; They're just too cute!

You can get the floral ballerinas here and the more plain, but still cute, white shoes here.
