Very interested in Korean skincare. I see it brought up on beauty sites and forums a lot. Any links to guides or lists of Korean brands/products to try?

What started the whole K-beauty frenzy a few years ago was Memebox because they were the first ones to bring k-beauty skin care boxes to market. They had some outstanding boxes at a very great value that they were releasing continuously and people bought them like crazy (myself included :D /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20"> ). They changed their business model since then and no longer to boxes primarily but they still have some. They have cosmetics now too but they do do occasional skin care boxes that are worth checking out as a kind of a starter kit for K-beauty. Sokoglam is a great website too. Once you get more familiar with K-beauty products, Korean Beauty Dep is a great website to order from because the products ship out directly from Korea at a great price. There are other websites too. Target now carries great K-beauty brands. Missha is really good, Mizon and Laneige are good too. Cosrx and Benton are great brands too.

Here are some sites to check out

Missha has 30% off on their website. I have their Aqua snail cream and it's so good. http://www.misshaus.com/

Just wanted to pass on the info if someone is interested ordering something from them. Their BB creams are really good too. The Time revolution line is fabulous too. :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20">

 
Has anyone tried the Whamisa kelp mask? I saw it online at Space NK. It looks interesting

I'll add a few others resources.

www.cosdna.com is a great reference to use to see if certain ingredients have been shown to be a known irritant or has an effect on acne prone skin etc.

Amazon and ebay have a ton of Kbeauty sellers, but do your research as far as fakes or expired products. Do your research.

Memebox run great sales.

Hallyu Cosmetics has the best and quickest shipping prices and times.

If you can wait, getting it directly from the Korean Company is the cheapest and will generally offer free shipping.

 
What are your current favorite K-beauty products?

I've really enjoyed the Skinfood black sugar mask lately. It leaves my skin so smooth. I've also been using the Pig collagen jelly cream and when left overnight, I wake up with so much more smoother skin in the morning.

Has anyone tried the gold sheet masks? I saw Beauteque has some. How are they compared to other sheet masks?

Here is a picture of Intracell mask that I found on Beauteque

Does anyone have any suggestions for a night emulsion and night mask? I use Etude House, Moistfull Collagen Emulsion, but not a big fan. I'm 25 and wanting more anti wrinkle and help fight dry skin up in cold Maine.

I really like the Dr. Jart Ceramidin cream and the Laneige line creams and night creams. I really like the Leaders masks too. They work so well.
