35 Beauty Products From Asian-Owned Brands With Results That’ll Convince You Magic Is Real

10. A Cosrx snail mucin serum to help improve skin hydration and soothe damaged skin. Yep, snail mucin is a Korean skincare product made from snail slime. Sounds ick but your skin will totally fall in love the second you use it. Hmm, wonder if this is why SpongeBob had Gary the pet snail — skincare benefits. *All Cosrx products are dermatologist-tested, cruelty-free, and have no parabens, sulfates, or phthalates.

Corsx is also a Korean skincare brand.

Alright friends, I am here to confirm that the hype surrounding this stuff is SO real. I’ve had acne since I was literally 8 years old (don’t ask, my cousin was a face painter and practiced on me so I broke out BAD) and I’m JUST now starting to get it together. My skin this past year has completely changed, I have gotten super serious about my skincare routine, and I am now ✨ pimple-free ✨ . Now, I am grateful that my skin has cleared up, but it was still kinda dull, uneven, ya know, the little nitpicky stuff. That is until I cracked and bought this little potion. My skin is now ra-di-anttttt! It’s never looked better. My only regret is not taking before and after pics but glass skin, I know her. I haven’t gone out in public without makeup since I was like 12 because I was so insecure about my skin. Now, chiiiilld, I go out all the time free of makeup. I also bought this for my cousin for Christmas, she’s obsessed, a friend slept over and I let them use this, they’re now obsessed, I guarantee you’ll fall in love after your first use. 

Promising review: “This is a great product. It’s not sticky and has no smell. It’s my favorite product to use with any other skincare product. Very gentle and helps with acne. Will be a regular in my skincare routine.” —C
