Have you ever wondered how do all the K-pop idols look so ethereal even when they are barefaced? Besides spending thousands on beauty treatments, you might be thinking that they go through a lengthy, 10-step daily skincare regimen that could take up an hour in the morning and an hour at night for their flawless complexions. Though that may be practiced by some, that is not usually the norm in the world of K-beauty!

Let’s be honest. While some beauty products do give us luxuries at affordable prices, some products don’t. Therefore, many would spend a fortune when it comes to beauty products because it is always better to choose quality over quantity. However, you don’t necessarily have to spend a lot of money on good skincare because Missha strikes the perfect balance between cost and quality.

Initially, Missha’s products could only be purchased online but the beauty brand finally opened its first offline store after receiving innumerable positive reviews on its products. Today, Missha has over 500 stores all around the world! What makes the brand special is that it uses various rare ingredients such as Reishi mushroom, deep mineralized seawater, and Rehmannia to create excellent beauty products which have been recognized by various beauty awards. One of the crowd-favorites that is worth mentioning is the Time Revolution Artemisia Treatment Essence which is suitable for all skin types, especially sensitive skin, and has been proven to create moisturized, translucent skin.

Another one of its crowd-favorite, namely the Glow Skin Balm from its ‘Glow Me’ skincare line is perfect for those who aspire to achieve a “glowing skin like the surface of a boiled egg”, as stated by the brand itself. We must say that we are pretty convinced.
