The Best K-Beauty Products of 2021

K-beauty has been bringing people clear, glowing, and blemish-free skin for years. Their skincare products make you so radiant you don’t need makeup, and if you are looking for makeup, Korean brands often integrate built-in skincare, so that it becomes beneficial to your routine. Here are our top picks to know about.

1. Son & Park Beauty Water

This stylish bottle of beauty water doubles as a toner. It’s gentle as can be, but is still a powerful cleanser. Papaya extract naturally exfoliates, while hazel water calms and smooths.

2. Cosrx Advanced Snail Peptide Eye Cream

It might sound gross, but snail goo is actually one of the best routes to glowing skin. This eye cream absorbs fast and significantly reduces dark circles due to niacinamide, hyaluronic acid peptides, and…wait for it…snail secretions.

3. Dermal Korea Collagen Essence Facial Mask

Can’t afford a facial or collagen injection? Consider this very reasonable sheet mask, which is collagen infused and has tons of stellar reviews from happy customers on Amazon. One reviewer with chronically dry skin said they saw issues clear up in a matter of days after applying this.

4. Tony Moly Panda’s Dream Smudge Out Mascara

This mascara lengthens and adds maximum volume, with unparalleled definition in just a few sweeps. Unlike other mascara on the market, this one doesn’t smudge or clump. The wand also happens to be an adorable panda.

5. Laneige Glowy Makeup Serum

This makeup serum is basically a makeup primer that eliminates dryness and dullness. Along with being a lightweight primer, this Laneige product is a hydrating serum, making it a pre-makeup hybrid we’re obsessed with in 2021.
