K-Beauty vs Budget Beauty: Our Honest Morning & Night Routines

K-Beauty vs Budget Beauty: Our Honest Morning & Night Routines — this episode is for grown women who want real results without wasting money. No sponsorships. No hype. Just two Gen X women breaking down what actually works on real skin.

In this episode of Disrupt & Discuss, we compare K-Beauty vs Budget Beauty using our exact morning and night routines. KayCee brings the luxury K-Beauty side—serums, snail mucin, brighteners, and Korean cleansing foams. Meanwhile, Just E breaks down realistic, affordable routines using TJ Maxx finds, Amazon picks, and Yuka-approved budget products.

We cover:
• K-Beauty vs Budget Beauty: what’s worth the splurge
• Honest morning routines vs nighttime routines for real skin
• Brighteners, toners, serums, masks, and retinol
• Affordable face + body products that still deliver results
• Ingredient safety using the Yuka app
• Skin care for melanated skin (what matters + what’s marketing)
• Oral care: peroxide, charcoal, miswak, oil pulling
• Body smoothing, dry brushing, wood therapy & sauna routines
• Products we’ve used for YEARS — not weeks
• What Gen X skin actually needs vs what trends claim

Whether you're into luxury K-Beauty routines or sticking to budget beauty that works, this episode gives you the full breakdown of what we actually use AM + PM—and why.
