Today we will review Korean anti-aging face creams and customer reviews on them. We hope that all the information we collect will be useful to women.
Korea: why cosmetics from this country are so popular
A few decades ago, the French had the primacy in the cosmetics industry. Women all over the world dreamed of receiving a coveted tube or jar of cream from Paris as a present. But gradually the situation began to change, and for the past three years, the fair sex has been giving preference to Korean face creams, reviews of which are filled with blogs and forums. Why did this country take the leading position among recognized European cosmetic brands?
Experts say that everything is very simple. Koreans actively and successfully developed the beauty industry. Today, this Asian country is considered the forefront in the development of innovative technologies for skin care and rejuvenation. Korean women spend a lot of time in order to look “without age” and use many different cosmetics for this.
Moreover, most creams, serums and other products contain not only revolutionary formulas, but also a long list of natural ingredients. And all this is packed in designer bottles, which are very nice to pick up and convenient to use.
I would also like to mention that Koreans have a cult of well-groomed skin, so every self-respecting company produces a large number of specialized products. According to reviews, Korean face creams are considered one of the most effective. They cope especially well with moisturizing the skin and erasing age signs.
In this article, we will consider several types of popular creams from Korea, but first, note the pros and cons of cosmetics from this Asian country.
Benefits of Korean Cosmetics
In the reviews of Russian customers, the merits of funds for a person originally from Korea are often listed, so it was not difficult for us to identify their main advantages:
- exclusive and natural ingredients that are difficult to find in creams of other manufacturers;
- security;
- ease of use (a spatula is attached to each jar, which must be scooped up with a cosmetic product);
- high efficiency;
- availability;
- the opportunity to purchase a probe;
- a wide range of cosmetics for all skin types and for any occasion.
Inspired by the merits of Korean face creams (reviews about them provide very interesting and useful information), do not rush to run to the store to purchase them. Let's first look at the disadvantages of such cosmetics.
The disadvantages of skin products from Korea
Even those who definitely prefer Korean cosmetics can name a number of its disadvantages. Therefore, we also can not ignore them:
- Difficulties associated with the acquisition. It is impossible to find a real luxury brand from Korea in Russia; most women make purchases in online stores and have to wait a few weeks for their goods. Most often, these sites are foreign and people without knowledge of the language are difficult to navigate in them.
- Difficulties in understanding age distinctions. Asian women have a slightly different skin type than Europeans. Therefore, they age differently and much later.
- Lack of information in Russian. On the packaging and the jar everything is written in Korean, which makes it difficult to comply with the technology of applying the product.
- Allergic reactions. European women often experience allergic rashes (judging by the reviews) on Korean cosmetics. Face cream purchased on the site can be very effective, but a number of its exotic components can cause irritation.
Women often write that before buying a cosmetic product, you need to carefully study and try to translate the instruction into Russian. Only in this case can you be sure of your purchase.

Even relying on reviews, the best Korean face cream is quite difficult to choose, because the presented range is very wide. Therefore, today we will name and describe several types of cosmetics that are well sold and bought by Russians over the Internet:

- Moisturizing creams.
- Whitening Korean face creams (reviews about this cosmetics are not easy to find).
- Collagen products.

It is necessary to tell in detail about each group mentioned above and name some of the most effective creams.
Korean face creams after 30: reviews and description
Thirty years is the border after which you need to literally love your skin and give it increased attention. Most often, by this age, women appear dry, the first facial wrinkles and age spots. Many note loss of tone, pallor of the skin and their thinning. In addition, each lady is well aware of some of her individual characteristics, so when choosing a cream, she must always take into account a number of nuances.
But do not forget that at thirty years old a woman can not yet use a cream with strong components that can harm her, but nevertheless, the presence of a large number of plant extracts and ingredients should be traced in the composition of the product. They help the skin cope with the first age-related changes.
But the Koreans themselves believe that only face cream is not enough, and therefore use a lot of additional funds:
- Hydrophilic makeup remover oil. This product has an innovative formula consisting of natural oils and emulsifiers. Oil must be applied to dry skin and only then lightly moistened with water. On the skin, the instant product turns into foam and literally dissolves makeup on the eyes. Russians consider Scinic Coconut Cleansing Oil the best tool in this series. It not only removes impurities, but also nourishes and moisturizes the face. The average cost of such oil ranges from one thousand three hundred rubles.
- Essences for the face. After 30 years, these Korean remedies must be applied before applying the main cream. High marks among our compatriots received the essence of The Yeon Golden Collagen Concentrating Ampoule. It has a very good composition, which includes marine collagen, adeosin, gold and other components. Together, they perfectly moisturize the skin, smooth out fine wrinkles and enhance the skin's natural defense. Buyers write that the face instantly acquires radiance and looks rested.
- Moisturizer After thorough cleansing and preparation of the skin, you can start applying the cream or gel. Judging by the reviews, the best Korean face cream for women over thirty is Missha Aloe Soothing Gel. Of course, its consistency is more like a gel, which, however, does not affect the effectiveness of the product. It perfectly moisturizes the skin to the deepest layers and has an incredible regenerating effect.
Koreans sincerely and not unreasonably believe that such care will provide them with beauty to gray hair.
Skin care after thirty five years
Despite the fact that there is not much difference between thirty and thirty-five, Koreans at this age add a lot of additional creams, serums and gels to the skin care products already described above. We will not talk about all of them; we only note the most interesting ones:
- Eye Cream Erborian. At thirty-five, a woman should take special care of the delicate skin of her eyelids. To keep your eyes young and not upset by the crow's feet, Korean women recommend using ginseng cream. Erborian belongs to a series of BB creams, it provides comprehensive care, tightening, smoothing and protecting the skin. In parallel, such a tool eliminates small wrinkles, removes swelling and bruises. Our compatriots who have experienced this wonderful makeup on themselves are sure that it is well worth the two thousand rubles paid for it.
- A comprehensive tool FarmStay Black Pearl All-In One Ampoule. If you decide to buy this serum, packed in ampoules, you will get a remedy that replaces tonic, serum and essence at the same time. It contains extracts of black pearls, freesia, purslane and lavender. With regular use, the complex product moisturizes the skin, increases its tone and elasticity, activates the regeneration of the epidermis and restores protective functions. Women also notice that FarmStay Black Pearl All-In One Ampoule has an anti-inflammatory effect and perfectly nourishes the skin.

Korean Grape Stem Cell Wrinkle Lifting Cream contains grape stem cells, panthenol, adenosine, hyaluronic acid and fruit extracts. In reviews, this remedy is often described as miraculous. It prolongs the youthfulness of the skin, nourishes it and protects against the action of free radicals.
Often, ladies write in reviews that they never thought how effective Korean cosmetics was until they tried it once. Since then, it has become for them a real salvation from age-related changes.
Moisturizers from Korea
Korean moisturizing face creams are receiving highly positive reviews . After all, this part of skin care is considered the most important for Koreans, and they very carefully select such products.
I want to say that a lot of moisturizing creams in the Country of morning freshness are produced. They differ from each other in the active components that make up the composition. We will only note the best tools:
- Etude House Pure water baobab cream. This cream contains a baobab extract, which instantly nourishes the skin with moisture and increases its elasticity.
- Nature Republic Steam Cream Moisture / Fresh / Ultra. Creams of this series are distinguished by an abundance of natural oils in the composition. They not only moisturize, but also perfectly nourish the skin. In addition, the cosmetic product creates a protective barrier that prevents the skin from losing precious moisture throughout the day.
- Mizon Original Skin Energy Hyaluronic Acid 100. Serum in this series is half composed of hyaluronic acid. It not only perfectly nourishes the skin, but also protects it.
Real moisturizers from Korea cost at least one and a half thousand rubles. Luxury cosmetics will cost customers from two to three and a half thousand rubles.
Whitening products
Koreans consider beautiful only white skin, therefore they spend a lot of time and money on achieving this effect. Whitening products in the Korean beauty industry are mass-produced, so they are not always easy to understand. But on the forums, women praise the following creams:
- White Tightening Cream by The Skin House. This cream contains niacinamide, peony extract and ardisia in its composition. With regular use, the product perfectly cleanses the skin and removes pigmentation. In addition to the effects already listed, it has an anti-aging effect.
- Snow White by Secret Key. This is not one tool, but a whole series that includes a mask, cream and body lotion. The main active ingredient is milk protein, combined with niacinamide and betaine.
- Panda's Dreams. Creams and masks in cute oval jars resembling pandochkas are very effective in combating age spots and freckles. Also, the products of this series remove redness and peeling of the skin.
When choosing whitening cosmetics for yourself from Korea, keep in mind that some creams have a cumulative effect, while others give only a short-term result.
Collagen Creams
With a lack of collagen, our skin ages and quickly fades. This process starts back in twenty years and becomes noticeable by thirty-five years. If you do not use special creams, then soon wrinkles and saggy skin of the face will become a constant companion of a woman. Judging by the numerous reviews, Korean face creams with collagen are very successfully fighting anti-aging changes. They include many components, and most often these tools are produced in series.
We want to mention some of the most popular collagen cosmetics:
- Pig Collagen Jelly Cream by Scinic. Pork collagen is best absorbed by the human body. Therefore, in many creams it is he who is used. Pig Collagen Jelly Cream consists of fifty percent collagen, and the result of using this cosmetics exceeds all expectations.
- It's Skin Collagen Cream. This cream is part of a wide range of collagen products. It complements them and, judging by the comments of customers, perfectly fulfills its main task - nourishing the skin and smoothing out small wrinkles.
- Collagen Power Firming Enriched Cream. This tool is also part of a series that is recommended for use in its entirety. The cream contains marine collagen suitable for all skin types. It has the ability to penetrate into the deepest layers of the epidermis.
In order to get the result faster, women are advised to purchase collagen cosmetics in batches. The cost of such an acquisition, depending on the brand, may exceed five thousand rubles, but the effect will definitely be worth the money spent.
Korean snail face cream: reviews
Such cosmetics are widely advertised on the Internet and on TV, most women consider her know-how and actively try miraculous creams on themselves. Naturally, Korean companies did not stand aside from the new-fangled trend and launched a whole series of snail slime products on the market.
In this line, Mizon is the best Korean anti-aging face cream. The virtual space is filled with feedback about it, so it’s easy to talk about the means of this series.
The company has several farms where it grows snails. Their mucus is collected, cleaned and added to the mixture of plant extracts, vitamins and other components. Most often, such cosmetics contain glycolic acid, copper peptides and elastin. Mizon snail creams, according to the manufacturer and customers, narrow the pores, smooth out the first wrinkles, and have a regenerating and moisturizing effect.
Our compatriots on the forums note the advantages of this series:
- good composition;
- noticeable regenerative effect;
- perfectly shows itself in combination with other creams;
- equally effective on all skin types.
The minuses of the buyer include:
- high cost (from six hundred to one and a half thousand rubles);
- lack of dispenser;
- unusual consistency.
Ladies of any age actively advertise this series of Korean cosmetics, but experts advise treating such creams very carefully. The fact is that snail mucus itself , which has a moisturizing effect, is extremely small in a cosmetic product. But for the regeneration and rejuvenation of the skin, the oligopeptide added to the cream is responsible. It is often called the "growth factor" and it is he who stimulates the renewal of the epidermis. Dermatologists are convinced that such cell division can lead to skin cancer and other health problems. Therefore, if you can’t refuse snail creams, then use them no more than twice a week. A positive effect will be noticeable, but health will be maintained.
