Do you love Korean beauty products but are afraid of the price tag? Guess what, you don’t need to worry! Some of the best and most popular Korean skincare and makeup products are actually readily available online and at affordable prices too!
To prove my point, here are 10 AMAZING Korean products that all cost less than $15. A bargain! Good luck getting through this post without buying anything…
1. Aqua Super Max Cream (Nature Republic)
I LOVE this product! It’s super light but still provides great moisture for your skin. During the winter, I often layer it with a heavier moisturizer for the perfect combo, but during the summer, this is all that I need to use to get my skin feeling hydrated and refreshed!
2. I’m Real Mask Sheets (TONYMOLY)
Who doesn’t love a good face mask? These masks from TONYMOLY come in a wide variety of flavors, perfect for if you like to spice up your skincare routine on a regular basis. From avocado to pomegranate, there’s bound to be one that suites your tastes! For me, I can’t get enough of the seaweed one. (Trust me, it’s amazing!)
3. Wonder Pore Freshener (Etude House)
This freshener (which is just a fancy word for toner) is one of my holy grails! Before I discovered this product, I used to avoid using toner too often because I have very dry skin. However, this toner never dries out my skin! It still packs a strong cleansing punch, but it leaves you feeling super refreshed and clean, rather than super dry and irritated. If you have had trouble with toners in the past, definitely give this one a try!
4.Black Sugar Mask Wash Off Exfoliator (Skinfood)
Not only does this product work really well, but it also smells amazing! It truly does a great job exfoliating your skin. I tend to use this product once a week, giving my skin a fresh and revitalized look. Even better, a small amount goes a long way, so you really get your money’s worth with this one. Be sure to test it out for yourself!
5.Peri’s Ink Velvet (Peripera)
Looking for a long lasting lip tint? Be sure to give this a try! Peripera is known for its great lipsticks and tints, but this one is probably my favorite for it’s smooth feel and excellent durability. Also, Peri’s Ink Velvet line comes in a bunch of fun, bright colors. If you want to add a pop of color to your day, this is a perfect way to do so!
6. Rice Water Bright – Cleansing Oil (Face Shop)
If you are at all familiar with Korean skincare routines, you’ve probably heard of the double cleanse method. With this, you wash your face not once, but twice, using both an oil cleanser and a regular foam cleanser. Using the additional cleansing oil is an essential step to make sure that all the dirt and makeup from your long day truly get washed away, leaving your skin fresh and ready to absorb all the other products (ie toner, emulsion, serum, and cream) you put on at night. If you are new to the double cleanse method, I recommend starting with this one! It’s super affordable and does a great job cleansing your face.
7. Tea Tree Soft Bubble Foam (Skinfood)

9. Peach Sake Emulsion (Skinfood)
I originally bought this product because of the cute packaging, but I’m so glad I impulse bought it because it has become one of the staples in my daily skincare routine! The smell is great (just like fresh peaches!) and it leaves your skin feeling nice and hydrated. In the winter, I like to layer this with a heavier moisturizer. It’s a wonderful base to use right after putting on your toner.
