Though it only came out this summer, this nifty serum is well on its way to cult stardom. It's packed with vitamins, soothing botanicals, brightening niacinamide and even skin-firming peptides — in other words, it's got everything you need for glass skin...in a single step. It's so popular, it's often out of stock, so it's one of those things that you're going to want to nab while you can.
After getting numerous shout-outs from beauty bloggers like NikkieTutorials, J. One's primers started to gain widespread appeal in the West. As Nikkie herself put it, "It is super intensely sticky — it is like a glue for your face." Now, that may sound like a negative rather than a positive, but it's also very hydrating and breathable — and precisely because it is so sticky, it really extends the wear-time of your makeup. This new red algae version is brightening and also doubles as a moisturizing sleeping mask. Honestly, what more could you ask for in a product?
Thinking of jumping on the snail mucin bandwagon? This affordable essence is a good place to start. Though the slimy texture can be a bit off-putting (especially given the key ingredient), it smooths into skin so nicely, with a hydrating and brightening effect. It's great for calming inflamed skin and, long-term, it can help with acne scarring as well.
With its sweet, berry flavor and luxuriously thick texture, this lip mask offers some serious TLC for your lips. It adds a nice protective layer that keeps your lips moisturized all night long and it softens like you wouldn't believe.
Namechecked as a favorite by Fifty Shades of Snail's Jude Chao over at the Strategist, this serum really does meet (nay, exceed) expectations: The thicker, gel-like consistency adds an instant boost to skin, nourishing it and taking your glow factor up a few notches. Slather it on before sleep and you'll wake up looking extra well-rested and dewy. Seriously, it's one of the best products in the whole Sulwhasoo lineup, and that's saying a lot.
