Korean Beauty Top Picks


I have been a big fan of Korean beauty products for a while now and thought i'd share some of my top picks! 

Peripera Cushion Blusher
This is an easy to use blush with a cushion applicator. It leaves a dewy, natural glow and is easily buildable if you prefer a fuller coverage of colour. As it's a creamy consistency it easily blendable and doesn't cake at all! 
If you are a bit cautious about applicators like these, rest assured that the cushion applicator is easily removed for cleaning and pops right back on, simple! 
This adorable blush comes in 5 different shades; Sweet Pink, Happy Coral, Cheerful Orange, Shy Pink and Lively Lavender.

Laneige Water Sleeping Pack EX
This is a truly inexpensive dupe for the Origins Skin Drink! You apply this before you go to bed and it helps hydrate, reduce signs of fatigue and creates a barrier to lock in moister for the day ahead. It is a light gel like texture, non sticky and leaves no residue and if that's not enough it is packed with essential oils (orange flower, rose, ylang-ylang, sandlewood) This combination helps the mind to relax and aids sleep.

Ingredients to note: 
Beta glucan- skin regeneration effect
Hunza Apricot Extract- Skin purification
Chestnut Extract- Improves skin texture
Ceramide SLN- Moister loss prevention

Innisfree Second Skin Mask 'anti-trouble'
If you like sheet masks, this is a great one to try! It helps clear 'troubled' skin, so anything from blemishes to dehydrated skin, this mask will help sort it out. One of the key ingredients is 'propolis' which type of bee glue (sounds a bit grim) but this resinous mixture is what honeybees collect from botanical sources, making a great natural source of antioxidants that helps skin to remain healthy and clear. The sheet itself is made from fermented soy bean which helps cool down the skin (by 5° c!) which is perfect for the hotter weather we are having at the minute!  Once left on between 10-15 minutes, remove the mask and pat in any remaining formula to allow it to absorb into the skin.

Peripera Pens Tint Milk
These are handy travel sized lip tint, that come in 3 lovely shades; milky peach, milky pink and milky lavender. These have a doe foot applicator that makes the tint glide easily on the lips, no patches in sight! It is also really hydrating on the lips and leaves a natural flush, so perfect for a day time lip colour. They smell like peach aswell, which is a nice extra! 

You can find all of these products on ebay! Hooray!

Have you ever tried any Korean beauty products?
