If there's any time of the year you should be prioritizing your skin, it's now. Not only is it suddenly cold, windy, and overall just simply gross outside—causing dryness and irritation—but it's the season of giving stress. All that travel, excess family time, end-of-year blues, and holiday shopping—jeez, well, it's exhausting and could cause stress acne in the form of cystic breakouts, rosacea, and more. And if your skincare routine is looking a lil not up to snuff these days with all of the above going on, then you should def stock up on all of these K-beauty deals for Black Friday and Cyber Monday.
All of our favorite Korean skincare and makeup brands (like Medicube, CosRX, Then I Met You, Sulwhasoo, and Dr. Jart) are running sales this weekend, offering up to 50 percent off their best-selling toners, cleansers, serums, moisturizers, and more. Almost everything is avail on Amazon too, meaning free shipping, so idk what you're waiting for...
Best Deal
Nothing plumps up my skin like this water-based moisturizer. It's loaded with hydrating ceramides, peptides, and squalane to quickly moisturize my skin when it's dehydrated. Basically my secret weapon when my skin barrier is a whole mess.
Promotion Details: Take up to 50% off Belif products.
Hailey Bieber <3s this device (peep her TikToks). It does everything from tone and lift your face to increase product absorption to potentially help stimulate collagen with red-light therapy. You'll be v grateful to buy it on sale.
I'd be shocked if you haven't seen this overnight sheet mask all over your FYP. Smooth it on your face and go to bed. When ya wake up to peel it off, it'll be clear (a sign that your skin's absorbed all the mask's goodie collagen, niacinamide, allantoin, and hyaluronic acid).
Promotion Details: Take up to 32% off Biodance products.
Wanna look like a juicy, dewy lil snail? Well, ofc you do. And the answer is this CosRX Snail Mucin Essence that's gone viral time and time again for how hydrating it is. When our beauty writer reviewed it, she loved that it made her skin so damn glowy without feeling sticky.
Promotion Details: Take up to 50% off CosRX products.
This thick cream is sooo dreamy for slathering all over my skin before bed, a flight, or just whenever my face feels dry as hell. Ceramides are the MVP of the formula, which help prevent moisture loss.
Promotion Details: Take up to 40% off Aestura products.
I picked this up in South Korea last month (brag), and I've used it every other night since religiously. It makes my skin feel as soft as buttah after I wake up and peel off the remnants of it, thanks to collagen, ceramides, and hyaluronic acid. Annoyed I didn't buy it at 32 percent off though...
I recently tested this on a trip and quickly fell in love with how moisturized it left my skin from head to toe. It's fantastic for sensitive skin, since it's fragrance-free and hypoallergenic. Plus, it's packed with ceramides to improve my skin barrier, too.
Promotion Details: Take up to 45% off Illiyoon products.
I'm so annoyed I didn't wait to buy this on Cyber Monday since it's currently a whopping 50 percent off. But whatever, now I can tell you after testing it how fab it is for calming down angry, aggravated zits, thanks to niacinamide, centella asiatica, and allantoin.
When I went to Korea with a group of beauty editors, everyone flocked to the Beauty of Joseon section of the store in search of this beloved sunscreen. It blends in so easily with zero white cast—a strong feat for an SPF 50 with UVA and UVB protection.
Promotion Details: Take an extra 10% off select products (including sale) when you spend $60 with code FLASH.
Beauty director Lauren Balsamo is a huge fan of layering this under retinol. Basically, this magic serum uses a mix of herbs that hydrate, plump, and brighten, as well as boost whatever you put on top of it. And it's rarely on sale, so this 20 percent off discount is too damn good to miss.
Promotion Details: Take 20% off sitewide.
Most cushion foundations, although so glowy and stunn, only come in a few shades. Womp. But not this TirTir one, which actually has a variety of 40 (!!) shades—basically unheard of for a K-beauty foundation. When our editor Olivia Truffaut-Wong tested it, she said it felt hella lightweight while offering up a medium to full coverage.
Promotion Details: Take up to 60% off TirTir products.
When I've got red patches on my face, I just pat this in and it basically disappears. Magic, huh? (Sorta, it's a combo of the green tint and centella asiatica soothing the hell outta my skin.) This 30 percent off deal won't last, though.
Promotion Details: Take up to 40% off Dr. Jart+ products.
Reviewers are legit obsessed with this formula since it's not overly drying. Instead, it's gentle (using salicylic acid and niacinamide), but can help break down the oil that causes clogged pores and blackheads on your face.
Promotion Details: Take up to 50% off CosRX products.
FYI: Toner pads are the "it" thing in Korea rn, including these exfoliating ones from Needly that are on sale over Black Friday weekend. Wipe 'em all over your face, stick 'em on as makeshift sheet masks, or spot treat with 'em on your zits. The world is your oyster.
Cool thing about this formula (which was developed by Charlotte Cho, founder of K-beauty retailer Soko Glam): It's both hydrating and exfoliating. We're talkin' lactic and glycolic acids to chemically buff away dead skin, plus glycerin, squalane, and hyaluronic acid to help add moisture and offset dryness.
Promotion Details: Take up to 28% off Then I Met You products.
10,000+ five-star reviews had to be onto something, leading me to picking one of these up on my trip to Seoul. I 100 percent agree: This gives me the juiciest, glossiest lips ever. Spectacular, give me 14 of 'em right now.
Promotion Details: Take up to 40% off Nooni products.
