Joo Hyun-young shares personal "my own money" beauty and lifestyle list

Actress Joo Hyun-young has shared the products she personally purchased and uses for seasonal care. On her recent channel, she introduced a list of "my own money" items—products she bought herself rather than through advertisements—noting high satisfaction levels that led her to recommend them to acquaintances.

"Instant Tone-up" whitening toothpaste and seasonal body care

The product Joo Hyun-young emphasized most in the video is Purple Toothpaste from Seoul Microbiology Research Institute. Having purchased it after seeing an Instagram advertisement, she identified it as a self-care item that serves as an alternative to the hassle of dental whitening procedures. She explained it is suitable for those wanting to maintain white teeth, noting that using it with an electric toothbrush for about five minutes provided an immediate effect of slightly brightening her tooth tone. The product is designed to maintain tooth whiteness, prevent tartar buildup, and quickly remove plaque through anti-plaque effects. Rather than using it daily, she manages her teeth by using regular toothpaste in the evenings and using this product periodically before heading out in the morning.

Body products for seasonal skin care were also introduced. Joo Hyun-young mentioned Daserin's whitening functional body lotion (body serum), stating she chose it for full-body whitening care following her summer vacation. Containing niacinamide, vitamin C, and lactin C, the product helps brighten skin tone and refine skin texture to create a matte finish. Noting that niacinamide absorbs better during the day, she recommended applying this product first after a shower and layering moisturizer on top. She added a tip that if the product's unique mild medicinal scent is burdensome, one can mix in a drop of a favorite oil.

From hair to makeup: items tailored to personal color

For hair care, she selected Cream Bun Treatment from Akumed. Choosing this for its cost-effectiveness over expensive brand-name products, she stated it is effective at making hair soft and noted she has even prompted acquaintances to repurchase it through her recommendations. In addition to the rinse-off type, she also mentioned a "no-wash treatment" that does not require rinsing.

Regarding makeup, she showcased products tailored to her "Summer Cool Bright" personal color. She explained that the JILL STUART blush is divided into two parts, allowing it to be used as both a base and a point color to achieve a lively pink glow. She then demonstrated a look with a subtle lavender glow on the skin using Gucci's lavender highlighter, introducing it as an item suitable for cool-tone users.

Supplements and household items for health and cleanliness

Items for health management included cauliflower mushroom enzyme and amino acid products. Because she has a sensitive digestive system, Joo Hyun-young began consuming cauliflower mushroom enzyme following an influencer's recommendation, noting its high fiber content may affect the intestinal microbial environment. She also stated that she takes Nyutracos amino acid products on an empty stomach in the morning and before bed at night to help alleviate skin dryness during the change of seasons. For a drink to consume instead of coffee, she chose Mindful's lemon green tea, which helps with swelling management.

For household items, she recommended a Vikan squeegee to increase cleaning efficiency and a small sponge from MUJI. She emphasized the satisfaction of using the Vikan squeegee for removing moisture and specified that the MUJI sponge is useful for cleaning narrow gaps inside humidifiers.

Joo Hyun-young concluded by noting that the products she introduced may not suit everyone due to individual differences, advising those with sensitive skin to try small quantities or samples first.
