🍯 About Honey Layer
Who I Am
Hi, I’m Mondo, the face (and skin) behind Honey Layer.
I’ve always believed that caring for your skin is a form of self-respect. But it wasn’t always that way for me.
My Story
In high school, my skin was my biggest insecurity.
I tried everything! From harsh scrubs, drying toners, and whatever trendy treatments that only made things worse. Every mirror felt like a reminder that I was doing something wrong, and I remember avoiding photos or even skipping events when my skin flared up.
It wasn’t until years later, while scrolling through videos about Korean skincare, that something clicked. Instead of attacking my skin, these routines focused on healing it, nurturing the barrier, layering hydration, and taking time to understand what my skin actually needed.
So I started over.
Gentle cleansers, soothing toners, a little patience, and a lot of curiosity.
And slowly, my skin calmed. The redness faded. I finally recognized myself again, not perfect, but peaceful.
Why I Created Honey Layer
Honey Layer was born from that transformation.
It’s my way of sharing what I wish someone had told me years ago. That healthy, glowing skin isn’t about perfection; it’s about consistency, compassion, and choosing products that work with you, not against you.
Here, you’ll find honest reviews, layering tips, and curated product lists that make Korean beauty less overwhelming and more joyful.
Whether you’re starting from scratch or refining your glow, I hope Honey Layer helps you fall in love with your skin again. 🍯
