Skincare treatment pads are one of the latest K-beauty trends, and they are a popular choice for their exfoliating magic, which can help clear breakouts. ”They’re great for gentle daily exfoliation to keep my pores clear,” said GH Beauty Lab Reviews Analyst Chiara Butler. “I used up the whole jar!"

Even if you didn't get a great night's sleep, you can still look like it with this depuffing eye gel. It uses revitalizing ingredients like hyaluronic acid, squalane, caffeine, adenosine, and vitamin C to help plump, hydrate, and brighten the skin. The Aqua Bomb collection is popular with online shoppers and consumer testers alike, and our experts even gave the line's Jelly Cleanser, which is also on sale, a GH Beauty Award.

GH Beauty Lab Director Sabina Wizemann is a fan of this soothing cream. It stood out on our list of the best Korean moisturizers for helping reduce redness. “I have been really enjoying this facial moisturizer,” she says. “It is light and soothing, and over the weeks I have used it, my skin is much less reactive, with less redness and discomfort from dryness. It feels very light on the skin, and you do not need much to cover your entire face.”

From the viral TikTok brand TIRTIR, this eye cream was named our top pick for tackling wrinkles, and it is loaded with skin benefits. Ingredients like niacinamide, glycerin, and squalane work together to brighten and moisturize, while peptides and adenosine help improve skin elasticity and promote collagen production. With a cooling metal applicator, you can apply this cream around your eyes, lips, and even on your forehead to target problem areas.

This face mask works while you sleep, using PDRN and caffeine to reduce puffiness and make your skin appear more radiant. Add it as the last step in your skincare routine and peel it off in the morning.

Right now, you can get a pack of four for less than $15.

In our list of the best Korean moisturizers, we named this our best value pick for its lightweight formula that works for both dry and oily skin types. The red bean extract is rich in antioxidants and can help control excess sebum.

Contributing Beauty Editor Celia Shatzman doesn't leave home without these face masks in her suitcase. "Nothing revives my skin more post-flight than these little guys, which only take 15 to 20 minutes to bring my complexion back to life," she said. While more expensive than others on our list, Shatzman swears they're worth the splurge, making Prime Day the ideal time to stock up at a discount.

Ueda also saw this serum everywhere in Korea. It uses proprietary microspicule technology to mimic the effects of microneedling in a convenient liquid form. During Prime Day, you can snag it for nearly 40% off.

Our best overall Korean moisturizer is a luxury, but it lives up to its hype—even more so at 25% off. The rich cream contains ginseng actives, ginseng peptides, and vitamin C to counter fine lines and plump up skin. I've gone through multiple jars and love how soft and smooth my skin feels after using it. Shatzman adds, "I’ve always been impressed with the luscious texture and how hydrating it is, making it a worthy splurge."
