Korean skincare and the “glass skin” look has been trending on social media for quite some time. For obvious reasons… I mean, who doesn’t want glassy, glowing, bouncy, youthful-looking skin? I hopped on that trend, of course – as I love a glowy skin look and anything that makes my skin look dewy, plump, and radiant.
I wanted to share with you guys in a little post some of my recent favourite K-beauty skincare products that I have loved and would 100% recommend to you. Of course, they are all cruelty-free and help leave your skin looking glowing, dewy, fresh, and glass-like. Do let me know if you’ve tried any of these brands before, and let’s delve into the list below.

anua rice enzyme brightening cleansing powder
Exfoliating products can be a bit of a tricky step for me because I do have quite sensitive skin, but I’ve found a really gentle daily exfoliation option from Anua.
I love the formula of this – you make a foam with the powder and apply it to your face. It has a really fine, soft, slightly sticky texture and buffs away the day in a gentle way. It leaves skin feeling really fresh – never stripped or with that awful “squeaky clean” feeling 💦 It just feels really soft and bouncy afterwards.
This powder is really great for sensitive skin as it’s a really lightweight exfoliant and it can also be used daily as it’s gentle enough for daily use.
Benefits:
- Gentle daily exfoliation suitable for sensitive skin
- Helps remove dead skin cells and build-up without irritation
- Leaves skin feeling soft, smooth, and refreshed
- Helps support a brighter, more radiant complexion
- Non-stripping formula that maintains skin comfort
- Easy-to-use powder-to-foam cleanser texture





skinfood carrot calming water pad
I absolutely love a good toning moment, and having them in a tub already soaked in toner is such an easy and quick way to tone your skin – and they’re great for travel too! These SKINFOOD Carrot Calming Water Pads are so lush, so refreshing, and they make your skin feel clean, clear, toned, and ready for the next step in your skincare.
Personally, I especially love using these during the hot weather when my skin is a little bit more oily – they really help with reducing excess oil and helping to keep pores feeling clear and balanced. Toner is an essential part of my skincare routine; it’s something I never skip and really enjoy doing. If you are looking for a travel-friendly, refreshing toner that’s easy to use and no-fuss, these are perfection! 🥕
Benefits:
- Hydrating and refreshing toner in easy pad form
- Helps reduce excess oil and balance the skin
- Supports clearer-looking pores
- Convenient and travel-friendly packaging
- Soothes and refreshes skin, especially in warm weather
- Pre-soaked pads for quick and easy application





yepoda double bubble and calm balm
Yepoda has an absolutely incredible range of products which are super affordable, and they have a really easy-to-follow skincare system. Every one of their products is labelled with a number so you know what step you’re doing in your skincare routine, and I absolutely love their Calm Balm Cleansing Balm 🌿 It is really calming on the skin and has a fresh olive-tree scent to it. It’s really soothing, removes all makeup and grime from your skin, and leaves it feeling really fresh, glowing, and super clean.
If you’re looking for a double cleanse moment, The Double Bubble Cleansing Foam 🫧 is also incredible. I love the texture of this – it’s really fluffy and light, like a cloud – and it’s a great first step to cleanse your skin if you are into a double cleansing moment. You can then go in and use the Calm Balm afterwards so your skin is double-cleaned and refreshed.
Benefits:
Calm Balm 🌿
- Gently removes makeup and daily impurities
- Soothing and calming on the skin

I’ve been using this SKIN1004 Madagascar Centella Tea-Trica Relief Ampoule most recently as a calming and protective evening product 🌱This ampoule has a gorgeous lightweight, watery texture that helps to soothe and support the skin’s barrier.
