All My Picks from Amazon
Everything below is from my personal Amazon wishlist. These are products I either use regularly or am excited to try. Prices are approximate and may vary.
Cleansers
Micellar Cleansing Water
$8.75
The classic French pharmacy staple. This gentle micellar water removes makeup and cleanses skin with zero rinsing needed. Great for sensitive skin — it's vegan, cruelty-free, and leaves no residue. I use it as my first step to remove sunscreen and light makeup.
Pre-Gleanse Oil Cleanser
$19.99
A double-cleansing must-have. This oil cleanser melts away sunscreen, makeup, and sebum without clogging pores. Formulated with Cica for soothing, it's non-comedogenic and completely unscented. Emulsifies beautifully with water so it rinses clean.
Exfoliants
Mandelic Acid Serum
$9.99
A gentle exfoliating serum that uses mandelic acid (a larger AHA) alongside PHA and hyaluronic acid. Great for sensitive skin that can't tolerate glycolic. It refines texture, brightens, and hydrates at the same time. Under $10 and genuinely impressive.
Multi-Acid Milk Peel
$22.99
A professional-strength exfoliating solution with 15% glycolic acid, lactic acid, and enzymes. Think of it as a weekly resurfacing treatment you can do at home. The milk formula keeps it hydrating while the acids smooth texture and fade discoloration.
Serums
Azelaic Acid 10% Redness Soothing Serum
$22.00
Azelaic acid is underrated for acne-prone, oily skin. This ANUA serum fights blemishes, calms redness, and keeps pores clear — all while being incredibly lightweight. The added hyaluronic acid means it hydrates as it treats. Korean skincare at its best.
Rice Ceramide 7 Hydrating Barrier Serum
$17.00
A barrier-repair serum packed with rice extract, ceramides, niacinamide, and hyaluronic acid. Completely fragrance-free and non-comedogenic. This is the serum I reach for when my skin feels irritated or compromised. It's soothing and strengthening without being heavy.
Beta-Glucan Power Deep Moisture Serum
$19.99
Beta-glucan is hyaluronic acid's quieter, more effective sibling. This serum by Korean brand IUNIK delivers intense hydration using mushroom and yeast extract. Great for dry, mature, or sensitive skin that needs serious moisture without heaviness. Vegan and super clean formula.
Multi-Quench Plumping Hydration Serum
$27.99
A plumping serum that uses PGA (polyglutamic acid), a next-gen humectant that holds more moisture than hyaluronic acid. Designed for dry and sensitive skin, it delivers deep, lasting hydration that visibly plumps fine lines. Feels luxurious for the price.
Moisturizers
Daily Facial Moisturizer
$13.97
Dermatologist-approved and formulated specifically for sensitive skin. This Vanicream moisturizer is free from dyes, fragrances, parabens, and all common irritants. Ceramides and hyaluronic acid keep skin comfortable and hydrated without causing breakouts. Clean and simple — exactly what irritated skin needs.
Electrolyte Water Cream
$19.99
A lightweight gel-cream moisturizer that delivers balanced, refreshing hydration. The electrolyte complex helps skin retain moisture throughout the day. Suitable for all skin types — especially combo and oily skin that wants hydration without grease. Layers beautifully under SPF.
Panthenol 10% Post-Acne Cream
$18.20
If you deal with acne marks and post-breakout redness, this is for you. Panthenol (Vitamin B5) accelerates skin healing and reduces redness after breakouts. It's silicone-free, non-comedogenic, fragrance-free, and vegan. A true skin recovery cream from one of my favorite Korean brands.
Sunscreen
Daily Soft Touch Sunscreen SPF 50
$11.99
One of the most beloved Korean sunscreens for a reason. SPF 50, broad spectrum, oil-free, and absolutely zero white cast. The texture is so light you'll forget you have it on. Works for all skin types and layers invisibly under makeup. At under $12, there's no excuse to skip SPF.
Sheet Masks

PDRN Hyaluronic Acid Capsule 100 Serum Mask
$24.00 (10 masks)
A luxurious Korean sheet mask loaded with Salmon PDRN (a skin-regenerating ingredient beloved in Korean dermatology), hyaluronic acid, and collagen. PDRN helps with skin repair, elasticity, and that coveted "glass skin" glow. Perfect for a weekly self-care ritual. A pack of 10 lasts you a long time!
