Liquid glitter liners, like the Colorgram Milk Bling Shadow, have been taking over TikTok for recreating the glint on K-pop stars’ lower lash lines that catches the light on stage like a disco ball. It’s a subtle but impactful way to amp up your everyday makeup look.
Korean lip tints
Let’s face it, Rom&nd Lip Tints need no introduction. Having gone viral on TikTok, they’ve cemented themselves as the go-to lip products of every k-beauty enthusiast, and we’re not surprised as to why. Featuring an extremely hydrating and ever-so-slightly plumping formula, these lip tints are ideal for anyone who’s eager to re-create that ombre K-beauty lip.
Our personal fav? The Rom&nd Juicy Lasting Tint. At Olive Young, which is like Korea’s Sephora-meets-Ulta Beauty, it’s regularly a bestseller in the lip category. It has a delicious, universally flattering shade selection that gives lips a stunning plumping effect with a buildable dose of color.
Now, if you’re into for a lip tint with a velvet twist, look no further than the Peripera Lip Velvet Ink. It glides on like butter, leaving you with a soft-blurred “cloud”-like finish that will easily last you all day. Another hidden gem? The Clear Mirror Lip Glaze. This handy lip product delivers a high-shine glazed finish all the while giving you a subtle wash of colour.
Korean Cheek Products
One of Korea’s most popular blush products is the Too Cool for School Artclass by Rodin Blusher De Rosee. Korean singer Sogumm also keeps it in her bag at all times. The compact has three different shades to work with that you can dip into individually for an ombre effect or swirl the your brush around all colours to create a customised look.
Korean base products
As one of the first Korean beauty brands to have a retail presence in the West, Dr. Jart+ recently relaunched one of its most popular products, a makeup-meets-sunscreen hybrid. Enter: the Dr.Jart+ Premium BB Beauty Balm, which features a new formula packed with SPF 40, brightening niacinamide, and moisture-boosting glycerin. All you really need is one pump to create a gorgeous glassy skin finish that keeps skin luminous and dewy all day long. We just wish it came in more shades.
Meanwhile, on the ingredient list for the Missha M Perfect Cover BB Cream SPF 42 PA+++, you’ll notice caviar extract makes an appearance alongside familiar ingredients such as hyaluronic acid. The luxurious addition to this Soko Glam bestseller helps smooth and plump skin akin to your favorite serum.
Last but certainly not least: it really wouldn’t be a roundup of the best Korean makeup products without a healthy dose of cushion foundation. One of the best-selling formulas comes from an esteemed makeup brand known for it’s iconic lip tints – you guessed it, Rom&nd. Not only does it deliver maximum hydration but it also gives just enough coverage to even out your skin tone in the most natural way possible.
Another must-buy: the Missha Magic Cushion Cover Lasting Foundation. Featuring SPF50+ protection, this moisturising formula promises lightweight yet buildable coverage, making it a solid contender for your everyday foundation.
