These K-Beauty deals need your attention if you want glossy skin
In my opinion, there’s one category that truly never misses and that’s K-Beauty — specifically Korean skincare. So, naturally, it’s at the top of my wish list when it comes to shopping for skincare during Amazon’s Spring Deal Days sale. That’s right, the shopping extravaganza is back for a Spring twist – but hurry as the event lasts less than a week!
Now, I know what you’re thinking: “I don't need a 10-step skincare routine.” And to that, my answer is no, no you don’t. However, that’s not what K-Beauty is about. Korean skincare is all about repairing, hydrating and rejuvenating your skin barrier. Here’s a peak at some of my favourites...
Essentially, treating it with kindness and care, taking time out for yourself at the beginning and end of each day, and creating a ritual for you and your skin that you come to love. It’s a category that not only hits the mark but tops it for pretty much every skin type since the aim of the game is soothing and protecting. There’s something for everyone, kinda vibe.
But I also know how spenny a new skincare routine is, which is why the Amazon Spring Sale is the perfect time to try a few newbies (or stock up on old faves) without breaking the bank.

The best Korean beauty products to shop in the Amazon Spring Deal Days sale...
Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence
One of the most iconic COSRX products is the Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence, which you've probably seen on TikTok. It’s a product I’ve been using on and off for years, and every time I go back to it, I wonder why I ever stopped!
It uses snail mucin (yep, I know, it sounds gross but trust the process n’ all) and hyaluronic acid to help soothe inflammation and hydrate the skin.
CC Dull Correct with Centella Asiatica
If you find that dull skin is the concern you want to tackle the most then give the CC Dull Correct from Erborian a go. It aims to be an instant complexion boost to wear on its own or before the rest of your complexion products. Note that many of Erborian products don’t always work for all skin tones though.
CC Cream with Centella Asiatica
If you don’t like traditional complexion products, like foundation but still want to add radiance and a flush of colour to your skin, then you’ll love the Erborian CC Cream.
Although it first appears creamy like a traditional moisturiser, after you start to rub it into the skin, the pigment pearls burst giving the appearance of a more even skin tone and radiance.
The downside to this, as with many Korean products is that it, unfortunately, is not suitable for all skin tones.
CC Red Correct
If you’re already a stan of the Erborian CC cream (read: above), but struggle in the redness department, it’s worth trying out the Red Correct iteration.
This colour-correcting formula contains green pigments to cancel out red tones (and DW, the cream blends out to match your actual skin tone without leaving an ashy hue) while centella asiatica helps to knock back redness and strengthen your skin barrier.
Advanced Snail 92 All in One Cream
If your moisture barrier is crying for help (i.e. it’s dry, flaky and irritated) the COSRX Advanced Snail 92 All in One Cream deserves a spot in your routine. It’s formulated with 92% snail mucin and a hefty dose of hyaluronic acid, so a few uses will deliver mega moisture while giving your complexion a radiant glow.
Niacinamide Hue Drops Face Serum
Glow Recipe is one of my fave K-Beauty skincare brands – the essences are simply gorge – but recently it explored colour cosmetics with the Niacinamide Hue Drops Face Serum. Layer the serum onto fresh skin and it lends a *stunning*, golden gloss to your complexion. It’s the perfect product to introduce into your summer routine.
Pure Cleansing Oil
There’s nothing quite as satisfying as using a cleansing oil or balm to take the day off. This argan oil-based cleanser is a best-seller in Korea and for good reason.
It effectively removes dirt and grime from the skin without leaving the skin feeling stripped or dry. In fact, most people – including myself – have been surprised at how hydrated their skin feels after!
Atobarrier365 Hydro Essence
If your skin is in need of a little TLC, this is worth getting in your Spring Sale basket. It has a moisturising milky texture that is applied after cleansing and before your cream to boost hydration levels in the skin. It’s a rare product that feels rich and ultra moisturising without being heavy or suffocating, which is no easy feat.
Snail Mucin 92% Moisturizer
If you’re not into essences so much, try COSRX's Snail Musin moisturiser, which has all the wonderful benefits of mucin in a beautiful cream formula. Although it looks heavy, this cream has more of a lightweight cream-gel texture making it ideal for most skin types.
Dewyful Water Tint Lip Gloss
K-Beauty is known for its skincare but also for its glowing and barely-there makeup, which is great if you're a bit lazy like me when it comes to full glam looks.
This gloss is a beautiful pick-me-up for those moments when you want a wash of colour and nothing more. It’s a gloss formula but tints the lips and gives them a boost of moisture.
Skin Therapy Multi-Perfecting Night Oil
This beautiful, bi-phase oil contains 17 (!!) active ingredients including hyaluronic acid, squalane, polyhydroxy acids, bisabolol and zinc to help repair the skin while you sleep.
Are you sensing a theme here? I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again... K-Beauty is a dream for repairing and soothing the skin!
Waterfall Glacier Water Cream
This lightweight gel moisturiser is a dream for parched skin. Key ingredients include Alaskan glacier water, ferment extract, Icelandic moss and amino acids to help boost hydration and calm redness and inflammation. Dreamy.
Ultimate Nourishing Rice Overnight Spa Mask
Need a spa night without the funds or time to go to a spa? Hello Ultimate Nourishing Rice Overnight Spa Mask from COSRX. This is an overnight mask with the star ingredient being rice extract, which aims to soothe and hydrate the skin.
