1. Heimish All Clean Ball
2. Whamisa Green Tea Sérum Toner
3. Étude House Moistful Collagen Cream

This year was the year I fully inmersed myself in kbeauty (my bank account can attest to it).

The first product I fell madly in love with was the YADAH Collagen sheet masks. I LOVE sheetmaks but I sometimes have trouble finding masks that don’t irritate my skin. This YADAH sheet mask is amazing. I’m at that age where I can feel the elasticity in my skin fading away (insert Song Hye Kyo single tear gif here) and I really appreciate the collagen boost that this sheet masks gives my skin. Highly recommend.

Product number two: Mizon snail repair eye cream. I especially recommend this product to my fellow dry under eye ladies.

And finally..... drumroll.... the Laneige water sleeping mask. It’s lifr changing. And while I was incredibly skepticle of all the raving reviews I am now fully onboard. It’s probably the best moisturizing sleeping mask in the market. Period.

This is exciting. I went through a phase where I was so obsessed with K-beauty that I would buy without thinking about it. Sometimes, it was just the packaging. Now I need to cut back on spending so much. These 3 I would buy again if I could.

Su:m37 - Secret Programming Essence
Belif - moisturizing bomb
Sulwhasoo - Perfecting Cushion

Ohh this is pretty easy:

1. The Peripera Peri's ink, originals (I have all five colors, and wear them all the time). Can't wait to try the velvets.

2. The Innisfree No Sebum powder. It's so silky smooth and perfect for my oiliness in summer and is great for setting my concealer now that it's cold out.

3. Benton aloe propolis soothing gel. It's so light and perfect for summer when it's too hot for heavy moisturizer; but then it's also perfect for layering under heavier moisturizer in winter. Plus the aloe is great for soothing skin when I have breakouts or sensitivity from threading. I used to use straight aloe from the plant but that was messy and hard to travel with, so this was a good compromise.

Son & Park Beauty Water (for toning and cleansing)
Su:M37 Miracle Rose Cleanser stick (great for cleansing)
J one jelly pack (for a hydrating mask and/or makeup primer)

1. Pyunkang yul essence toner - little discernible scent, short ingredient list, and pretty affordable for 200ml. My skin has been loving this lately. I do 3 or more skins and my skin is super plump and hydrated.
2. Cosrx rice overnight mask - great texture but the smell was quite off putting at first (it smells like most rice products) so if you are sensitive to scents this might not be for you. But everytime I use it my skin looks great and feels great in the morning.
3. Banila Co. miss flower and mr honey cream - feels luxurious and has a lovely honey scent. It's quite occlusive and makes my skin sticky so I only use it at night as my last step.

I love the manyo factory galactomyces niacin essence. Helped a lot with fading acne scars. Also, cosrx snail essence, holy grail for this girls combination skin to keep it moisturized. And last but not least Belif aqua bomb moisturizer. No shame I'm on my 6th one, is that good!

My top 3 K beauty products would definitely be 1) Hanskin Hyaluron Skin Essence: i have combo/dry skin and this is kind of pricey but it has made my face feel so hydrated and gives me a dewy look which i love (especially during the winter months) I also love that this essence doesn't leave my skin feeling sticky or tacky like some hydrating essences do. It makes my skin feel smooth and clear.
2) Cosrx Triple C Lightening Liquid: i'm always looking for products that will brighten up my skin especially around my mouth area due to hyperpigmination and this product showed a pretty noticeable difference. I would definitely recommend this product to others!
3) Low PH Good Morning Cleanser Cosrx: This cleanser made my skin feel so fresh and clean. It's really gentle and has a very slight cooling sensation which I absolutely love!

1. The History of Whoo Wild Ginseng Oil.
I permanently lose all my whiteheads thanks to this ahmazing product.

2. Innisfree Aloe Sheet Mask, it was a savior after a full day under the sun.

3. Innisfree No Sebum Powder. Its compact and a very good product. It always leave my skin smooth..

1. Heimish All Clean Balm
2. COSRX Good Morning Low pH Cleanser
3. Peripera Ink The Airy Velvet #2 Pretty Orange Pink

InnisFree Pore Clearing Clay mask
Klairs Supple Toner helps my cheeks stay hydrated
Repiel Timeless line Shot mask

I have very oily acne-prone skin with large pores so I found it really hard to find skincare stuff that takes care of these + has anti-aging benefits. I did make some discoveries this year. Hopefully, my skin doesn't develop a resistance and I can continue using them!

1. Cosrx Acne Pimple Master Patch - MY HOLY GRAIL!!!! I just slap on this miracle worker on a zit, leave overnight, and voila! It's like I never had that zit in the morning.

2. Mizon All-in-One Snail Skin Repair Cream - This was my first snail skincare stuff, and so far it remains unbeaten in effectivity. My acne-prone skin remained smooth and supple the whole time I was using this. I tried other snail creams and moisturizers since using this up, but this one remains the best.

3. It's Skin Hyaluronic Acid Moisture Toner - I live in a tropical country so it's pretty much summer weather 24/7, 12 months/year (it's slightly cooler in December-February but still). This toner is moisturizing enough that I can use it as my day moisturizer but light enough that my face doesn't turn into a grease ball within a few hours, and it doesn't break me out. I also noticed that my smile lines lessened after a few weeks of using this. Definitely restocking.

Some K-beauty favorites this year:
- Cosrx Birch Sap Lotion: I'm also a fan of their snail essence, BHA, and cleanser, but I was surprised by how much I liked this! Super hydrating yet feels light on the skin, and didn't break me out.
- Clio Water Me Please BB Cream: gives a really natural semi-matte finish that is moisturizing and doesn't accentuate flakiness or dry patches
- Scinic First Treatment Essence: In terms of first essence, this one was great for calming my skin, giving a bit of glow, helping minimize pores, and just overall improving the appearance of my skin. Definitely better than the Nature Republic one, although the Missha one is probably still slightly better. The Secret Key Rose one also gave a similar effect!

Missha Under Eye Brightener - Best concealer ever! Matches my asian skintone perfectly and is super cheap! I always come back to it even after buying brand name concealers.
Laniege sleeping mask - like a burst of hydration in a bottle. Great for lazy nights when I don't to mess with a sheet mask.
Missha The First Treatment Essence - known as the SKII knockoff and while it doesn't seem like its doing much at first, when I stop using it my skin feels a lot drier so it definitely does make a difference, just not a quick dramatic one.

Love reading everyone's top picks. But as a K-beauty lover its just feeding the addiction to buy more! I need to try all these recommendations now!!

My skin texture and health improved drastically since I started using K-Beauty products (it's been 6 years now)!! It is difficult to select just 3 favourite products from so many new ones that I tried this year... but here they are (in no particular order :-) :

Pyunkang Yul Essence Toner
Cosrx Ultimate Nourishing Rice Spa Mask
Sulwhasoo Overnight Vitalizing Mask (what Jude said is the absolute truth... this basically changes your skin overnight!!)

Love you guys.... keep up the good work!! <3

This is such an exciting giveaway! :D

My list -

1. Klairs Supple Preparation Facial Toner (works great as my first layer for dehydrated skin)
2. Innisfree No Sebum Powder (AKA affordable Magical Unicorn Dust for when my skin gets greasy sometime later in the day)
3. HUUGGGEE fan of LJH Vita Propolis Ampoule during winters.

1) Benton Snail Bee Steam Cream
2) Cosrx Low PH Good Morning Cleanser
3) Cosrx Acne Pimple Master Patch

This year I really focused more and my skincare than makeup. I have very sensitive skin and I am so happy with the results I've had. My most loved products were:
1. SanDaWha Ultra Rich Hydrating Camellia Floral Water Cream. - This moisturizer is so lovely and hydrating for my skin! Very creamy and non-sticky. Very gentle.
2. Troiareuke ACSEN Toc Toner - An awesome hydrating toner with AHA and BHA! I love it so much, it helps keep my acne away without irritating my skin.
3. Swanicoco Centella Asiatica Salve - This is a soothing gel that helps me out when my skin gets very dry, or red. I've also used it to 'spot-calm' my cystic acne successfully. I only use a little bit at a time because it is so rich.

Thank you so much for hosting this! :)

Yay so glad Dramabeans started K-beauty the year I started paying more attention to my skin. Thanks javabeans and girlfriday :)

1) Cosrx Low pH Good Morning Cleanser
2) Innisfree Volcanic Pore Clay Mousse Mask
3) The Face Shop Real Nature Sheet Masks (especially the cucumber one!)

1. Baroness sheet masks - moisturizing AF and only ₱30. (Tried green tea, cucumber, and bit c)
2. Innisfree mineral powder (loose powder) - controls shine and oil; by the end of the day, I'll be dewy not a frying pan.
3. Innisfree bija and green tea capsule pack - wash off masks that helps me out when I have oncoming hormonal acne, one pack is enough for 5 uses.

Dramabeans + Korean Skincare?! = Yas!!

1) Cosrx low pH cleanser
2) Cosrx Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence
3) Cosrx Ultimate Moisturizing Honey Overnight Mask

Cosrx really did it for me this year! Excited to try out more brands!

My absolute 3 favorite k-beauty products this year:

1) Nature Republic Snail Solution - I have just started using their skin booster and emulsion and they are wonders for my skin. I wished I had jumped on this snail craze sooner but hey better late than never.

2) Mediheal P:EP firming masks - recommended by my Korean friend at the height of its popularity and they are great for my skin. I could feel the difference after putting the mask for a week.

3) Laneige Water Sleeping Mask - an all-time favorite. Dependable and good for nights when I'm too lazy to put on a sheet mask.

Hello,
i start using korean skincare thanks to Fiddysnails.This is the most effective skincare i ever used.My favorites are :
1.Leejiham propolis ampoule-makes skin really glowing
2.Cosrx-AHA whitehead essence-my skin never been so clear and whitehead free
3.Cosrx-BHA blackhead power liquid-I have oily sensitive skin and this product is really essential for me.
3.

Neogen Bio- Peel Gauze Peeling Green Tea pads - love the dual sides with gentle but effective exfoliation followed by the soothing comfort
The Face Shop Rice Water Bright Cleansing Foam and Light Cleansing Oil - so light but cleans so well, without drying out your skin
Secret Key Starting Treatment Essence - light, refreshing and works so well under my moisturizer

1. Peripera ink airy velvets- they are just so amazing. They feel light on the lips, they are easy to blend to make a gradient lip and they go on so smooth and easily! Another thing I love about these tints is their excellent staying power, great pigmentation, and good variety of colours. You dont even need to worry about reapplying after eating because even when the stain fades, it fades beautifully and won't leave you with the notorious lip ring. I highly recommend this lip tint and I'm keen to try out their other lip product lines.

2. Benton snail bee high content essence : This essence makes your skin feel SO soft and plump after application. If you've never used an essence you should definitely try this one out and see the difference it makes for your skin.

3. KLAIRS Midnight Blue Calming Cream- I love this cream because I can use it for when my skin is irritates or broken out. Whenever I have skin problems I use it to just spot treat for the irritated areas at night and the next day the redness on my skin would be calmed. The cream feels light on the skin and its also a beautiful blue colour due to the star ingredient Guaiazulene! You could also use it for sunburns and as a post shaving cream.

I don't own a lot of Korean beuty products, but my favorites are:
1. ARITAUM Fresh Essence Mask: Hyaluronic Acid - it power moisturizes my face!
2. Tosowoong Mask Sheet: Propolis and Snail
Yes, I went on a face mask kick recently...
3. Mizon Snail Repair Cream

Skin79 super plus beblesh balm
Mizon snail recovery gel cream
Beauty of Joseon Dynasty cream

I have been a fan of Kbeauty for about four years now, but was diagnosed with rosacea at the beginning of the year and had to stop using a lot of my go to products in order to help find triggers and such. However, I think I have finally found some things that keep me from being too red.
Son & Park Beauty Water- I love how it is a multi-use liquid. It is a makeup remover, toner and face mist all in one. I use this everyday multiple times a day.
Neogen Green Tea Cleanser Stick - This is one of the best cleansers I have used. The fact that is is a stick helps with application, it makes it so simple and clean. Also I love that it has real green tea leaves.
Innisfree Bamboo All-In-One Fluid- My all in one moisturizer and essence this summer. Helped me keep my face hydrated without having too add too many other products. However not so great in the winter, have had to add another moisturizer for colder months.

1. Cosrx Acne Pimple Master Patch
2. Laneige Water Sleeping Mask
3. Innisfree Jeju Volcanic Pore Cleansing Foam

1. pyunkang yul's essence toner. so gentle and good for my skin, and so moisturizing in these horrible cold winter months! big pan of pyunkang yul's line generally, but the essence toner is really great.
2. s:um 37 miracle rose cleanser. for anyone who travels and needs to bring cleansers through security and doesn't want to start messing around with re-potting their stash--this is for you, and it smells like gardens in summertime <3.
3. hera black cushion - perfect matte cushion with buildable coverage that never fails to look flawless and doesn't sink into fine lines or any texture on the skin. i might not look like jeon ji hyun wearing it, but i feel a bit like her.

Aw yay!
