Korean cosmetics are the best brands for facial rejuvenation. K-Beauty: face creams

March 8

Korean cosmetics are actively gaining popularity not only in Asian countries, but throughout the world. Korean products stand out from the general mass of European products due to their unusual, eye-catching packaging. But, in addition to their beautiful appearance, Korean cosmetics are renowned for their quality and effectiveness. And this, for the most part, is the merit of the Koreans themselves, who are very picky about their choice, carefully studying the ingredients and reviews on the Internet. Thanks to great competition and strict buyers, manufacturers constantly have to improve the quality of their products by developing new components and new formats.

Asian consumers are more focused on skin care, spending about four times more on skin care products than on color cosmetics.

Koreans believe that the main beauty lies in clean, fresh and healthy skin. In this case, the main emphasis is on achieving three effects: lightening skin, anti-aging effect And UV protection .

1. There are two major cosmetic competitors in South Korea:

The largest South Korean manufacturer of high-quality cosmetics. Their slogan is “Calm and Integrity.” Today, the company controls more than half of the country's cosmetic market, making more than $3 billion in annual sales of high-end cosmetic products. The company has 140 patents proving the positive effect of complexes from 🌱 on the skin green tea, 🎍 bamboo and🌺 ginseng. It was these ingredients that were used as the basis for the cosmetic formulas of their brands.

Both of these concerns have many brands, each of which differs from each other in style, focus and price.

2. Korean brands. Division by topic.

2.1 Herbal/natural/natural cosmetics

Pseudo-ecological cosmetics using images of nature and plants. Often these brands focus on plant extracts in the composition and the absence of aggressive synthetic ingredients - such as benzophenone, alcohol, mineral oil, parabens, synthetic dyes, synthetic fragrances, and animal products. The packaging shows a trend towards environmental friendliness - the use of unbleached, recycled cardboard, soy ink, beige-brown natural colors.

Usually these are mass market level cosmetics, with a fairly low and medium price range.

Representatives: Innisfree, Nature Republic, The Face Shop, It’s Skin, Skin Watchers, Organia, Secret Key

2.2. Dermatological cosmetics/cosmeceuticals.

Pseudo-medical cosmetics using medical themes. Brand stories often emphasize that cosmetics were developed with the participation of dermatologists and cosmetologists. However, dermatological cosmetics are just another marketing ploy. But this does not mean that it is not of high quality, it only means that it is not a medicine and you should not expect more effectiveness from it than from any other.

The word “doctor” is often used in the names, and the design of the packages has clearly expressed medical motifs - syringes, droppers, laboratory flasks and beakers, pharmaceutical jars made of dark glass and generally a strict design reminiscent of medicines.

The price level is often low and medium, less often high.

Representatives: MBSkin, Dr.Jart+, Dr.G, BRTC, Atopalm, Dr.Post, Dr.pharm, Ciracle, Rojukiss

2.3. Cosmetics based on traditional oriental medicinal herbs and ancient recipes (Hanbang).

These cosmetics use traditional Korean and Chinese medicine medicinal ingredients and compositions taken from ancient medicinal treatises. These are ingredients such as ginseng root, peony root, licorice root, gold, pearls, traditional Asian mushrooms, birch sap, angelica root.

These cosmetics are distinguished by a characteristic oriental design - luxurious, richly decorated packaging in yellow-gold, red-burgundy and silver tones, with a lot of gold, specially shaped bottles, the use of inscriptions in Chinese characters and with the imprint of the Chinese red seal. All this is intended to evoke associations with the antiquity and preciousness of the ingredients and recipes used.

Most of these cosmetics belong to the high and very high price categories.

This segment also includes fermented cosmetics, which have recently become increasingly popular - these are products based on traditional Asian herbs that have undergone a fermentation process.

Representatives: The History of Whoo, Sulwhasoo, Sooryehan, Danahan, Saimdang, Coreana (Somewhat separately here are brands such as Su:m37, Hyosiah, IllI, which use the hanbang concept, but rely on modern forms in their design).

Cosmetics that rely on the latest developments, innovations and biotechnologies in the field of cosmetology and biochemistry. Brands use advanced ingredients and formulas such as retinol, peptides, various cellular technologies, and encapsulated forms of active ingredients.

The packaging of these products is modern, technologically advanced and laconic in design - white color, silver shiny surfaces, translucency.

The products of these brands are in the high price segment.

Representatives : Iope, O HUI, Hera, IPKN, Isa Knox

2.5. “General direction” brands, similar to European and major global cosmetic brands.

They have universally neutral and at the same time elegant packaging, which is not much different in style from large European brands. At the same time, within the brand there may be separate product lines that meet one of the above trends - for example, herbal-natural or traditional-oriental, in order to cover the largest possible segment of customers. The price level is very different - from the middle to the luxury segment.

Representatives: Missha, Enprani, ElishaCoy, Skin79, The Saem, Hanskin, VOV, Amorepacific

4. Where to buy Korean cosmetics.

In fact, there is no problem with buying Korean cosmetics. There are a lot of online stores selling it.

Most large online stores in Russia are official representatives of one brand or another. They write about this on their websites and even post certificates confirming this. In this case, you don’t have to worry about the quality of the products they sell. To find Russian online stores online, just type in a search engine the query “Buy Korean cosmetics.”

If you want to save money, then you can buy Korean cosmetics on foreign websites. Their product prices are significantly lower, but delivery, taking into account the dollar exchange rate, is expensive. Therefore, if you need one or two products, then of course it is more profitable to buy in Russia, and if you and your girlfriends have chosen several kilograms of Korean cosmetics (practice shows that this is not so difficult), feel free to order directly from Korea.

The most popular stores that inspire confidence are Gmarket, KoreaDepart and TesterKorea.

We previously told you how to make purchases in the TESTERKOREA online store, you can read

When asked which cosmetics to choose – budget or more expensive – the answer is very simple: choose the best you can afford.

The higher the class of cosmetics, the higher its quality, effectiveness and safety. Good budget cosmetics will also do the job, but the effectiveness of such cosmetics may be lower.

Almost every modern girl, among the mass of tubes and jars, has at least one product produced in the land of morning freshness. Korean cosmetics are increasingly winning women's hearts. What is the phenomenon of Korean beauty products, which ones to pay attention to and, most importantly, which brand to give preference to, the rating of the best brands of Korean cosmetics will help you understand.

The development of the Korean cosmetics industry began not long ago; an important factor in this is support from the state. The amounts allocated for the beauty sector were spent on purchasing formulas, compositions, and modern equipment from the West.

Technologies and composition secrets, coupled with the hard work of Korean citizens, have contributed to the fact that in addition to the widest range of brands and products, today South Korea itself has become a supplier of developed ingredients to Western concerns.

Ingredients

What is there in the cosmetics of this Asian power that is not found in the West? The fact is that the creators of skin care and decorative products produce products that successfully combine traditional, experimental and national ingredients. It is the last two groups that are of interest to European manufacturers.

Traditional ingredients

This includes those ingredients that have passed serious tests of time, practical application for different types of skin and are used in the cosmetic industry of different countries.

These include, for example, adenosine, AHA acids, allantoin, amino acids and peptides, aloe extract, hyaluronic acid, various oils and many others.

Experimental Ingredients

Korean cosmetics creators are experimenters; in the products they produce, you can find ingredients that are unlikely to be found anywhere else. Each of these ingredients enhances a specific effect. Among them:

  • Fermented yeast - provides an antioxidant effect, moisturizing, smoothing and evening out the skin;
  • Pearl powder – has an antimicrobial effect, stimulates collagen production;
  • Snake venom, or rather its synthetic form, is an excellent anti-aging ingredient that smooths out wrinkles due to mild paralysis of the facial muscles, however, it gives an instant effect, noticeable only when using the product;
  • Caviar - a combination of amino acids, minerals, vitamins, fatty acids gives the effect of skin regeneration, relieves redness, makes the surface smoother;
  • Horse oil – regeneration, hydration, nutrition;
  • Starfish extract – whitening and wound healing;
  • Bird's nests are a unique combination of amino acids and vitamins that provide an excellent healing effect;
  • Snail extract is perhaps the most popular Asian ingredient, it stimulates collagen production, evens out the skin, fights post-acne and small scars.

This list is not exhaustive.

National components

Various powdered mixtures of herbs, sea shells, roots and much more in Korea are not only sold in pharmacies and consumed internally, they are also successfully incorporated into beauty products. Among them are the following:

  • Astragalus root - it is believed that it is superior to ginseng with its powerful immunomodulatory characteristics, is an antioxidant, stimulates the production of hyaluronic acid, collagen, evens out tone;
  • Ginseng – similar in properties to astragalus, additionally works well against pigmentation, including age-related ones;
  • Chinese cordyceps mushroom - its spectrum of action is quite wide, especially effective in anti-aging agents;
  • Lotus – has an antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, stimulating effect;
  • Celery is a powerful antibacterial ingredient.

These are just some of the ingredients that are successfully introduced into Korean products.

Which cosmetic products to choose

Among the widest range of products from various manufacturers, it is worth paying attention to:

  1. Various masks for one-time use (fabric or hydrogel for the face, patches for the eyes, strips for combating blackheads, sleep masks, etc.), such products contain significantly more active ingredients than similar European ones.
  2. BB and CC creams. The Korean cosmetics industry has achieved unprecedented success in creating such products. This cream is an opportunity to moisturize, nourish and tone the skin with one product. One of the latest achievements is the easy-to-use “cushion”.
  3. Snail remedies. Almost all brands have this line in their assortment. Only the concentration of the extract, its type and, as a result, the achieved effect differ. Premium class creams contain black snail mucin - more concentrated and effective.
  4. Anti-aging cosmetics - most national and experimental ingredients work precisely in this path.

Do not write off decorative cosmetics, the range of which is simply amazing.

Moisturizing series for young skin, which only needs to maintain water balance to be beautiful, is what you should try in Korean cosmetics.

Which is less suitable?

In Asia there is a cult of fair skin, so if lightening is not part of your plans, then you should carefully study the labels for ingredients. The majority of cosmetic products have, even if very light, a whitening effect.

In addition, you should not expect miracles from eye cream - slight lightening, radiance and excellent hydration - this is the effect that such products will give. But they may not be able to fight more serious wrinkles. The reason for this ineffectiveness is quite simple - Asians have a different skin type and the problem of such “joy lines” or “crow’s feet” is simply not familiar to them.

Otherwise, Korean cosmetics deserve to be on the shelves of Russian women of any age. All that remains is to choose your manufacturer. For convenience, all the brands described in the article are divided into three segments: budget, mid-price and premium.

The best budget brands of Korean cosmetics

It is worth noting that the difference between the budget and mid-price segments on the Russian market is quite arbitrary, since each brand has different series, plus the cost in Russian stores increases significantly.

A very popular brand among Russian bloggers. It is one of the youngest in Korea, was created in 2010, a large-scale rebranding took place in 2013, as a result of which a floating butterfly became the symbol of cosmetics, and the slogan was “Every woman has the opportunity to transform into a graceful butterfly using these products.”

Series of products are based for the most part on some mono-component present in each product of the line. These are, for example, series - tomato, cucumber, black sugar, caviar and many others. It is worth noting that individual series can be safely attributed to a more expensive and efficient segment. This, for example, is caviar and gold.

Having become acquainted with the most popular cosmetic brands in Korea, do not forget that this list is far from exhaustive. When choosing skin care and makeup products, you don’t have to give preference to any one brand, especially since each manufacturer offers many interesting products.

When choosing their cosmetics, customers benefit from the fact that Korean cosmetic brands use the practice of selling trial samples. Therefore, before you buy any cream, you should search online stores for a trial version. Of course, such a test sample will cost more than the same volume of product from a full package, but this will protect you from unnecessary waste of money if suddenly the chosen product does not suit you.

Cosmetics allow the skin of the face and body to remain youthful and attractive for a long time, provide care for it and reduce the harmful effects of makeup. In the last few years, American and French products have begun to catch up with, and in some cases even surpass, cosmetics produced in South Korea. These products are manufactured using the most modern technologies, which ensures a unique and long-lasting effect. Understanding the variety of products is not so easy, and even more difficult is choosing the right product. We will try to help you in this difficult issue so that the chosen cosmetics become truly useful for you and at the same time do not hit your pocket hard.

Rules for choosing and varieties of Korean cosmetics

When making their products, Koreans are guided primarily by their own ideals of beauty. In particular, one of the key parameters in this regard is skin tone. By their standards, the face should have a light shade, the skin should be smooth and almost glowing. For the most part, face care products have a fairly dense texture, thanks to which it is possible to hide most imperfections, and due to the latest manufacturing technologies, such cosmetics are almost not felt on the face and do not create a feeling of tightness.

In terms of foundation creams, it was Korean manufacturers who developed such a unique product as BB cream, which can be applied to unprotected skin. With its help, it is possible to provide high-quality hydration, hide even serious imperfections and fight various skin diseases, such as acne, and age-related changes, especially associated with a periodic feeling of dryness.


Korean manufacturers also produce various types of skin care products, most of which are aimed at deep cleansing. Such compositions penetrate deeply into the pores, removing accumulated fat and the pathogenic bacteria contained in it. In addition, a special makeup base, which was previously considered optional by European beauties, allows you to maintain youthful skin. It makes it easier for the skin to tolerate even quite aggressive cosmetics and reduces the likelihood of wrinkles by increasing the elasticity of the skin.

One of the innovations of Korean manufacturers is products such as tints, which are long-lasting pigments for the face and lips. They are well absorbed into the skin and do not rub off from its surface for quite a long time - about 12 hours. At the same time, the skin does not become sticky, it does not have a glossy shine. The purpose of tints is very different - mascara, lipstick, foundation, gloss, and so on.

As you can see, Korean cosmetics are diverse, they have a huge number of positive aspects and at the same time they are not too expensive, which makes choosing the right product even more difficult. So that you do not get confused in the assortment presented on the shelves, we have compiled this review of the best Korean cosmetics, which includes only high-quality products that have positive reviews from users and professional cosmetologists, and also have an ideal price-quality ratio.
