28 Korean Beauty Products Under $25 That People Seem To Be Loving

Review: "I'm not too familiar with K-Beauty, but this I can definitely swear by. I wanted something that looked like a slightly Vampy Black Honey (for reference, on me it looks purply red with some brown undertones). As much as I love Black honey, it never lasts and really grabs onto the cracky parts of my lips. So finding this really delivered on my expectations! Super pretty and very buildable! If you let it dry down naturally, it's pretty hydrating. Since I have pretty dry lips, I carry around Aquaphor. However, when I put it on, usually it smears the lip product I have on and I have to redo it. As long as you give it time to stain, it doesn't move as much when you reapply gloss/chapstick. The glossy part is a little easy to come off, but I cared more about the color anyways. I'm going to a family BBQ this weekend, so I'll update and see how it holds up against baby back ribs" - Ariana Naomi Sanchez

Review: "Korean stuff works! And usually, for much less of the expense. This is an 8 PACK. I expected maybe two for the price until I opened the package. Despite the picture of an egg on the packaging it smells like egg whites, dog sniffed it up close, so could it actually be? 36 has brought many surprises and reality checks. Nothing is a good substitute for lots of water, luck of the gene pool, and exercise but this will provide an instant superficial confidence boost no matter the lifestyle or circumstance. I was starting to feel like my brows and eyes were slowly drooping and sinking into my skull. I've noticed the extra effort it takes lifting my brow muscles to see the world sometimes. For 15 minutes, I was able to look around bright-eyed with no effort. This not only tightens but tones so I made my gf try one with no warning. Doing this and trying not to laugh is a fun challenge. Not to mention the photos I randomly sent people with no explanation. Harder to not laugh when reading all of the "WHAT HAPPENED?!!!" replies. I wish I took a before picture. Pics shown are 8 min, 15 min, washed off. Of course, I also, apply everything on neck lines. I would recommend following up with a moisturizer. Not overly drying but a freshly clean feel." - RhymeDust

Review: "I bought this on a whim because I deal with dry, tired eyes and dark circles. I don’t use it every day, but definitely a couple times a week before going out usually or if my eyes feel extra puffy.  It feels nice going on. It’s cool and soothing right out of the cabinet where I store my makeup. I’m sure the refrigerator would definitely add to that. It has a light perfume like scent, which I could do without, but nothing to take a star away. A little goes a long way and for the price I’d definitely buy again." - nk

Review: "I love to use these as a toning pad, then as a sheet mask. I've been using them twice a day or a month and I will definitely repurchase. The packaging is so pretty! Looks nice in my collection and works great. What else can you ask for?" - Apryl Stone

Review: "I recently switched from La roche posay to Manyo and what the difference! I have extremely dry and sensitive skin and other skin care brands would leave dry spots on my face but with manyo its the hydrating boost my skin wanted and needed! I’ve been double cleansing with the soda foam and their oil based cleanser! And then using their toner as well & I just ordered the moisturizer because I love this brand that much… my skin has never looked better!" - America Calloway

Review: "This is popular in Korea. My mom has been using it for several years. Good quality and ease of use. Really moisturizing." - Kyeongmin Kang

Review: "I’m 100% recommend this product ! I love korean cosmetic, they always look so natural, pretty, cute and drug free I’m using it for school because I’m a college student, I don’t want a full face makeup on fleek like American makeup style so I bought this and I was so so happy!" - May Tran

Review: "This stuff is incredible!! The first picture is after my 1st use and the second is after my 4th use! I absolutely hate putting pictures of myself but I had to share!! You just have to follow the instructions and it WILL work!!" - Sharon

Review: "After using this everyday for about 6 or 7 days my skin texture and the softness improved drastically. Mind you i did Use it with the retinol from the COSRX line has as well. I am now implementing “Youth To The People” moisturizer. I 110% recommend the snail mucin to anyone. I love It. " - Tessa

Review: "First of all, this is liquid like water, yes, because it’s a LIPTINT, not a lipstick or something like that, and it stains, because that’s the purpose.

This is absolutely better than Benetint from Benefit! And WAY cheaper lol. In the pictures are me with and without the liptint, and just with one coat! The coverage is amazing, something that I never could get with Benetint, for sure.

I just don’t know how long it lasts on the lips, but for me this is not to important, I don’t care if I have to apply another coat 🤷🏻‍♀️

UPDATE ⚠️

It lasts all day! But if you eat and clean your lips more than once, you’ll have to reapply 🙂

Hope that this review can clarify things for the others 😉" - Dani

Review: "This is THE MOST beautiful shimmer and glitter eyeshadow I have ever seen. The colors are STUNNING and it blends onto skin perfectly. Would look good on anyone. You will not be disappointed. A+ Love Rom&nd 🥰 excellent brand and products. This product at the top of the list!" - Donna Mundy

Review: "I almost gave up! My hair was so damage from bleach and colored, it was bad to the point I can’t even brush them with comb or even with my hand I try many expensive products and didn’t even work. I saw lots of reviews on this and I was like ok why not?! Is only $7. Omg that $7 tho!! This is the best product I have tried." - Gina

Review: "at first i was a little apprehensive as to buying this moisturizer because i have VERY oily skin, and the skin in my T zone (forehead, nose and chin) is always peeling. but this moisturizer is very hydrating without making me feel oily, and makes my skin brighter and makes my face look like its glowing rather than sweaty lol !! several people have told me that my skin looks brighter; i use this with a gua sha and the advanced snail 96 mucin power essence by COSRX. amazing combo and makes your skin look glassy without it feeling gross or look oily." - zubaida saeed

Review: "I got the shade mauve whip and it is so gorgeous! It applies so smoothly and has a really nice glossy finish. The color is very nice as well and is a natural sheer pinky color. The more you apply the more pigmented it will be, overall 10/10 I love it!" - Bella Tran

Review: "I just used this for the first time last night and it definitely lives up to the hype I’ve seen on TikTok. The jar is bigger than I thought making it cheaper than most similar products. It took off all of my makeup (although I do not wear eye shadow so can’t attest to that part) and it has a really amazing lemony scent. They also included a little scoop in the jar which I think is helpful I haven’t been able to find a cleansing balm as good as this! It removed everything with so little effort and did not bother my sensitive eyes. It is so creamy and moisturizing! Love it!" - N. Moreno

Review: "I wasn’t expecting much from an eye cream under $10 but this is the perfect eye cream. My eye area tends to be dry but eye creams are either not moisturizing enough or are too rich and tend to give me milia. This eye cream has yet to give me milia, dries down to a comfortable finish while keeping my eye area moisturized. I don’t have eye wrinkles but hopefully the “retinol alternative” ingredients will help keep things that way! I love the pump dispenser (I don’t like dispensers that are also applicators which is weirdly a thing with tube eye creams). One pump is adequate for both eyes so I think it’ll take awhile to get through this cream. I love the skinny tube especially because it takes up less room in my toiletry bag/purse but I would buy a tube half the size just for travel if it was available." - AK

Review: "I suffer from Rosacea so the skin in the middle of my face is often very, very pink. I have found that using the green color concealer is great for toning down the redness and that I don't even need to layer it under other makeup. I initially applied it with a makeup brush but I find that it also applies nicely with my fingertip. I apply the concealer, and then blend it in lightly-- the redness is diminished and I don't see any green. As long as I don't use too much, it doesn't feel tacky on my oily skin. Overall, I am very impressed with this product and would recommend it to other Rosacea sufferers or others looking to reduce redness." - Jenny H

Review: "Sooo worth it! Bought for the 2x barrier cream but the cleanser and toner are good too! Great for dehydrated skin and fragrance free as a plus. This works great with palmers cocoa butter and rose hip facial oil, and All in One cream by COSRX. Worth the money by itself, and in the set with the cleanser and toner :) LOVEEEEE" - Gianna

Review: "This product is so soft a d velvety in texture, its so satisfying applying it and ita formula is very smooth, its easy to blend to ger that "korean lip look" and it last very long and surprisingly with its matte finish, it does not dry out your lips!" - Amazing lashes!

Review: "Peter r for that dewy look. With our without makeup…this stuff is amazing. I bought it on a whim A year ago just to test it out. I have been using it for a primer/moisturizer before my foundation ever since, it makes my skin glowy and soft. I don’t tell anyone about it because like every other product I love- it goes viral then the price increases and it becomes unavailable/sold out. I will gate keep this product forever. Love it. It is affordable and a great addition to my skin care routine." - andrew
