Our nighttime routines feel incomplete without acleansing balm, toner, essence, and masks all from K-beauty brands.

Well, it has a paintbrush-like applicator that slicks on its budge-proof, inky-black pigment smoothly and effortlessly.
Plus, you’re able to easily adjust whether you want thin or thick lines.
When it comes to the best glittery makeup products hailing from Seoul, look no further than Unleashia.
Since then, Unleashia’s products have won a handful ofAllureKorea Best of Beauty awards.
TheUnleashia Glitterpedia Eye Shadow Paletteis our top pick, combining major glitz with everyday mattes.
It’s also a favorite of Chung Ha’s makeup artistEunwoo Jung.
It’s a subtle but impactful way to amp up your everyday makeup look.

However, the K-beauty brand is well-known in Seoul for more than just those.
TheSpeedy Skinny Browis a top pick for those looking for an affordable, new eyebrow pencil.
It touts a tiny mechanical pencil-like tip for achieving hair-like strokes that won’t smudge.
My favorite of the bunch is theSoo Adoor By Maeng #02 Point Eyeshadow Brush.

Plus, it is probably one of the most moisturizing matte lip products that will ever grace your lips.
Another glossy lip tint to consider for your makeup bag is theRom&nd Juicy Lasting Tint.

My introduction to theEspoir Pro Tailor Foundation Be Glowwas viaAllureKorea.
Its editors raved about how the dewy formula gets skin of all types glowing at every angle.
Unfortunately, it comes in only 10 shades, because everyone deserves to try this glass-skin-like formula.
