Interview with Zehan Ilyana

Hello My Name is Zehan of @skincarerants

In conjunction with International Women's Day, we want to celebrate all things beautiful in life. Whether it be a desk full of beauty products, making your favorite cup of drink, and journaling in your diary, self-love should come first don't you agree? 🧁

But a bit of ranting is okay once a while no? let loose and share your thoughts! And when it comes to ranting about beauty, no one does it better than our Angel from Malaysia! With her whimsical charms and aesthetics, this beauty reviewer also loves everything that life gives to us. She even makes pouring ice cold milk coffee 🍹, so very therapeutic. The ASMR we 😍it! Check out her other feed here where she does a variety of drink recipes you can do at home.

She's also a jewelry maker on her personal feed zehanilyana 💖

Interview with Rika Bajacan

Hello My Name is Rika of @rikatrinaaa

Last Christmas, Althea approached one of our Althea Angels in Cabuyao, Laguna (Philippines) to carry out an important mission to spread Christmas cheer to the front liners and essential workers. It was a heart-warming collaboration with her, our ambassador which involved groundwork and dedication to give out a million peso worth of Kbeauty products from Althea.

A strong single mother of two, Rika not only showed perseverance and strength in her life but also knew what kindness meant for many. As such we didn't bat our eyelashes when we approached her on this "surprise" project together. 

From collecting thousands of products, moving them, and packing each Althea box filled with 6 - 10 items. She went out her way just before Christmas to give 200 gift boxes on the streets and hospitals. Such an act of kindness from our Angel Rika is one of the reasons we interviewed her for our International Woman's Day article.  Thank you, Rika from all of us at Althea Korea 💖

Interview with Bubbly Vivi

Hello My Name is Vivian of @bubbly.vivi

Who would have thought a cosplayer would actually be a sweet but feisty young lady from a suburban town in Malaysia? We first got to know her when she started out reviewing beauty products from Althea and that her passion is so great, she would travel all the way from Perak to the city to attend one of our beauty workshops. 

With her love of reviewing skincare products, she has started an Instagram channel dedicated to sharing reviews and content that she creates. We have seen her style changed from the time we stalked her, and we love how she continues to improve with her self-taught skills and improvement workshops such as the one she attended in the city. 

Such passion and dedication to beauty are why we would love to interview her for our International Women's Day month. Secretly, we hope to see her cosplay more when she reviews beauty products!

Different Types of Hyaluronic Acid

Different types of Hyaluronic Acid

Today, we'll be sharing all about Hyaluronic Acid and the products with Hyaluronic Acid that K-beauty lovers love!

First of all, what is Hyaluronic Acid? Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring branched carbohydrate or sugar found throughout our body’s connective tissue. In skincare, there are different types of hyaluronic acid that can be used in cosmetic formulations.

Although its name contains the word “acid”, Hyaluronic Acid does not exfoliate the skin like AHA or BHA, so it mixes well with others and is safe for sensitive skin.
