Review: Mixsoon
July 17, 2024
Hey everyone! I’m excited to share my thoughts on some fabulous skincare products from Mixsoon, a Korean skincare brand that’s been making waves with their natural ingredients and innovative formulas. They are also known for their Glass Skin achieving products, which basically means very hydrated and luminous skin. Glass skin is all the rave in Korea and also here in the U.S. I had the pleasure of attending their pop-up event in West Hollywood on July 4th, where I got my hands on some of their top products. After using the products for almost two weeks now, here’s my take.

Products Reviewed
Description: The Mixsoon Bean Essence is packed with fermented bean extracts, designed to deeply hydrate and rejuvenate your skin. This essence promises to improve skin texture, boost elasticity, and give you that coveted radiant glow. It’s all about giving your skin the love it deserves.
My Thoughts
Texture: Slightly sticky, and slightly paste like.
Absorption: It’s feels sticky, but I have to say it absorbs really quickly, leaves skin feeling moist, and it blends in well into the skin.
Immediate Effects: I noticed a gleam or shine to my skin after I put it on, it’s noticeable and makes your skin look clean and shiny.
Long-term Benefits: Since I started using it two weeks ago, I have noticed my skin seem cleaner, shinier, and moist. I will have to keep using it to see if the effects continue or change after some time.
Verdict: I love this product so far. I enjoy the texture, the absorption, and the shine I get after using it. I would recommend it and will likely continue using it as part of my overall skin care routine. It is one of their best-selling products on the website and I can see why. I have a mix of oily and dry skin so it’s hard to find things that work, but this product has been great so far. I use it 2x a day, in the morning and evening, after I clean my face and apply my moisturizer.
Description: This Deep Foaming Rice Bar is a game-changer for your cleansing routine. Enriched with rice extracts, it provides a gentle yet thorough cleanse that keeps your skin’s natural moisture intact. Perfect for removing impurities while leaving your skin feeling refreshed and balanced.
My Thoughts
Lather: Super potent and creates a strong lather when you add water. I’ve been using it with my silk glow sonic-heating silicone facial massage & cleaning brush to create a stronger lather and better cleaning experience.
Cleansing Power: It definitely cleans really well, and you can notice the difference right away. I use it 2x a day in the morning and evening before I put on all my other products. I like that it has a rice like texture when you lather it, and you can feel it gently cleaning your face.
Skin Feel After Use: After using it for two weeks one thing I do notice is that it makes my skin feel very dry. I normally add my moisturizer and the bean essence after which helps, but I have noticed my skin breaking out from the dryness.
Overall Experience: Overall, I would say it’s a great product to use occasionally to clean your skin extra deep but using it at the rate I was leads to dry skin. This was a concern for me because when my skin gets dry it then starts to produce more oil and I notice increased oil production after I applied all my other products then followed by my make up.
Verdict: I say try it out, it’s a great soap and does the job when it comes to cleaning your skin. I noticed my skin appear lighter, more balanced, and evened out my skin tone fast since using it. I currently stopped using it daily and now only use it 2-3x a week after using it every day for 1 week.
Mixsoon Centella Cleansing Water (300ml)
Description: Say hello to your new best friend for sensitive skin—the Mixsoon Centella Cleansing Water. Infused with Centella Asiatica, this cleansing water is gentle yet effective, perfect for removing makeup and impurities without stripping your skin. It also helps soothe and calm irritated skin, making it ideal for everyday use.
My Thoughts
Makeup Removal Efficiency: I use a cotton pad with the cleansing water, and I love seeing how much dirt and residue it cleans off. This is a must have if your skin is sensitive, but you need some pow in your cleanser. It builds up a small lather after you rub it and comes off easy with water.
Skin Sensitivity: I like the way it makes my skin feel, it’s not super strong so it doesn’t irritate my skin and leaves it feeling clean and hydrated. I haven’t experienced any strong reactions from my skin which is a good thing!
Hydration: Overall, I feel that this cleansing water is pretty hydrating and doesn’t dry out my skin. It’s pretty much a first step and helps clear your skin of impurities and excess dirt while also hydrating your skin.
Verdict: Get it, if you have sensitive skin and have a face wash, you can use this afterwards to help soothe skin, hydrate, and get the excess dirt or make up off your face. In the last two weeks I’ve been using it, I notice a difference in how clean, smooth, and soft my skin is.
I first heard about the Mixsoon pop-up event from my dear friend, Yefri Areli, an amazing content creator and model, so of course I had to check it out! The event was in West Hollywood, and they had different time slots you could rsvp for. I had an amazing time getting to try on the products directly and learning about how to use them from the experts themselves. They also handed out gift bags with full size products and gave a discount for their whole line to attendees. I encourage you to check out Mixsoon and incorporate the magic of Korean skin care into your skin care routine! Click on the pop up event link to see my reel of the event!
