Max Ceramide Facial Skin Serum

Max Ceramide Facial Skin Serum

products  

Ceramide in this serum is a natural component which is found in all four layers of the human skin. This acts as a protective layer guarding the skin against infections and retaining moisture on the skin which can result in reduction of dermatitis, dry skin, eczema and wrinkles. With age, the ceramide decreases leading to wrinkles, dry, patchy and sagging skin.

Anti-Irritating and Skin Moisturizing Ceramides serum. This serum is excellent for the regular, dry and extra sensitive skin to reduce wrinkles and lines as a daily routine wrinkle care and also great during or after chemical peel.

Excellent for daily Routine: This serum is also excellent for extra sensitive or dry skin for a daily routine since it is formulated for the skin undergoing chemical peel procedure which causes the skin extremely sensitive and dry.

I like that it comes in a glass bottle.
-Allows for full shaking of the bottle:
-EDs have a reducer with a very small hole that prevents oxygen from entering the bottle, which minimizes oxidation and degradation of the serum inside.
-EDs are easier to use than typical droppers and are less likely to spill if the bottle falls over. 



Ingredients
Ceramide-3, Ceramide-6, Ceramide EOP, Hydroxypropyl Bispalmitamide MEA (Ceramide PC-104), Phytosphingosine, Cholesterol, Milk Lipids, Beta Carotene, Retinyl Palmitate, Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate (Oil Base Vitamin C), Toco- pherol Acetate, Omega-3, 6, 9, Squalene (from Plant Oil), Octocrylene, Octylmethoxy Cinnamate, Pentylene Glycol, Triglyceride, Arnica Oil, Grape Seed Oil, Rose Hip Seed Oil, Butylated Hydroxytoluene and Phenoxyethanol.

Directions
Apply twice a day gently on the face, neck and chest. Use more often if you need. You may use it alone but we recommend you to combine with our water-based serums or cream for synergistic effects. You may add to your favorite daily cream. Visit our site for in-depth instructions before use.

Bongsunga Hakdang - Koreatown

Bongsunga Hakdang - Koreatown

koreatown  

This place is in the business for 10 years, but I have never been to this place, until now. It's a hole-in -the wall type of place. Very quiet and private. The customers are 99% Koreans and they play Kpop. The worker may not speak very good English and no happy hour, and the food is little slow (well, better than ready in 1 min like instant food, right?), but I just love this place. In fact, I went back on the next day. The food is very good and the service is good, too. It's a hidden jam. It's located right next to Hwa Sun Ji.

The most popular item is chicken feet so if you like eating chicken feet, try it here.

We started off with some blueberry soju and makkori.

Complimentary soup

Seafood udon stir fry $13.99
We loved it. It's little spicy, and there were lots of seafood in it, including crab, shrimp, mussels, etc. Recommended.

Korean meatball $13.99
I know, it's not the typical meatballs. It looks like Korean pancake but meat in it.

This is nori seaweed on top of white rice.

You mix it, and then make rice balls.

cheese corn

Grilled hagfish $19.99
My Korean friend LOVED it. I was little scared to try it but it was actually very flavorful with a touch of spiciness.

Bacon wrapped rice cake ($2.99), Kalbi ($4), and sausage ($1.99)
