I love Korean skincare, and have been using it since I was a pre-teen. Now I’m a beauty writer who specializes in K-beauty, and I’ve even traveled to Korea for the love of the game. This Amazon Prime Day is a great time to pick up some of my personal favorites and holy grails. Many are beloved classic pharmaceutical-grade skin care products, many of which I have used for years. Ahead, find the K-beauty products I’m shopping right now.
I have been slowly chipping away at the milia, small white hard keratin-filled cysts, under my eyes. One ingredient that has been in my arsenal has been retinol eye creams like this one from numbuzin. It is not only gentle but formulated with NAD+ to calm the skin and help the retinol work better.
No time to do a full sheet mask? Use these toner pads on your forehead, cheeks, and under your eyes for a quick boost of hydration before doing the rest of your skincare. The soothing madecassoside works well for all skin types, but especially for those with acne-prone skin or with damaged skin barriers. I love using these as an extra step after double cleansing to make sure my skin is clean.
Summer is the season of sunscreen (although you should be wearing it year-round!), thus double cleansing is a necessity to achieve a truly clean face. This oil cleanser from MANYO is a classic. Made of fourteen plant-based oils, it will help remove even the most stubborn waterproof mascara. Make sure to apply it to dry skin and really take the time to massage the oil.
