I have some Korean makeup & skincare favorites to share! I've tried quite a few products from different brands, but these are standouts for me.

-Club Clio's Kill Black liquid eyeliner: So black, and so long lasting. Best liner I've tried.

-Hera UV Mist Cushion Foundation: I like Hera's formula best out of all the cushion foundations I've tried. It's not too yellow, or gray which most Korean foundations are notorious for.

-IOPE Bio Essence: The most important product in my entire skincare regimen. Really makes a huge difference in the clarity and brightness (from within) of your skin. A good cheaper alternative is Nature Republic's The First Essence.

-Mamonde Flower Essential face sheet masks: Affordable and full of essence.

-Tony Moly Magic Lip Tint in Strawberry (the clear one): It's a cheaper dupe ($7!) for Dior Addict's lip glow. It's also slightly stickier so it's good if you have dry lips and it's slightly more pigmented.



Next to try on my list:
-Missha Time Revolution
-Hera CC Cream
-Innisfree Eco Fruit Lip Tint
-SU:M37 Miracle Rose Cleansing Stick

I tried the Time Revolution by Missha. I am currently using it now. I am not sure what the difference is yet but I feel it making my face softer and smoother. I am also trying the snail cream, I like it a lot. I use it as a night cream so when I wake up in the morning, my face is soft and hydrated.
I usually go to the face shop in my area and they have the buy 10 get one free deals, things like that so if you're near a shop, best to check it out :). I haven't tried any tonymoly products. I don't know what half of them are used for.

I have read a number of reviews saying that Time Revolution does wonders for people's skin..making it soft as you said and also clearing up skin troubles! I think I will try and get a sample because it is one of the pricier items of skincare-I wouldn't like to buy it and it not do much or not like it (I'm sure that wouldn't be the case however)..I have been undecided between getting the Missha Snail Cream and Innisfree Green Tea Seed Cream ): its good that both Missha items are working well for you though!
I love the sales like that and 1+1- they are amazing! I don't know where my nearest The Face Shop store is..I'll have to look..hopefully they'll have a sale on haha :P
TonyMoly, I have found anyway, is mostly makeup items..what sort of items don't you know are used for?

Thankyou for sharing (: I always love recommendation and learning about new cosmetics because I love trying them!
I am looking for a new eyeliner, so Ill look into Club Clio..I have never heard of the brand..I want one that lasts and doesn't flake off.
I have never tried a cushion foundation..how are they and how do they compare to normal foundation? I agree, Korean foundations are usually notorious for having yellow or grey casts and as I mentioned earlier most of the Skin79 BBs do and Skinfood's Mushroom Multicare BB has a yellow-orange cast which I don't find desirable but their other BB creams and foundatioms are a great colour.
IOPE ~ another brand I haven't heard of. I am looking for an essence to add into my routine and I will definitely check this one and The Face Shop's out as well as Missha because my skin is kind of dull at the moment ): and it would be nice to have it brightened and soft!
I have seen a lot of the Mamonde masks for sale on eBay at affordable prices and I couldn't find any reviews online to see if they were any good - how did/have you found them?
I love the TonyMoly lip tints! I have TonyTint in Cherry Red and it applies,sits and looks great! I love tints because they look more natural and are less sticky and greasy than lip glosses and sticks ♥ I will be getting more colours soon!
Thanks for your recommendations, much appreciated(:
Good luck and I hope you get to try all the items on your list!

The Club Clio Kill Black liner is regarded as the best eyeliner in Korea right now, and rightly so because the formula is amazing! I have a review up on my blog with a comparison to Kat von D's Tattoo liner if you're interested!

For the Mamonde Flower Essential masks, I got them in Korea (they were BOGO!) but I've seen them at Amore shops here in the US. I see that you're in Australia, so I'm not sure if they have Amore shops there but if they do, the masks should be there. If there are no Amore shops, then ebay or online stores like koreadepart are your best option.

I just recently purchased the Hera CC Cream after trying out a sample of it on ebay. I absolutely love it. It feels like a hybrid between a moisturizer and a foundation, but you can tell it's definitely better for your skin. Plus, it has pretty amazing light to medium coverage for a CC cream. They advertise it and use it in conjunction with the UV Mist cushion, but I was able to use the CC cream on its own and it looked great. I like a lot of Hera's products so I only wish it was sold here in the US!

I have been using the Etude House 'Bright Fit BB Cream' which I love as it has great coverage and makes my skin look glowing and smooth. I just bought my mother the 'Blooming Fit' version of the line for Mothers Day and I think she is enjoying it so far....I also got the Etude House Brow pencil and Browcara and the are really good as well....I am not used to browcara and the stiff feeling it gives when it's in..but it looks good (: How have you been going with your cosmetics and skincare? Used anything great lately? Xx

My favorite Korean products are:

Tony Moly Luminous Live Aura CC Cream - evens out my skin tone and leaves my face looking smooth.
Tony Moly Aqua Full Water Mist - I spritz this on top of my makeup to set it, and also to keep my skin hydrated. My T-zone is prone to dry patches, so I spray some of this on my palm and pat it on my t-zone and it really helps with the dryness
Hyarulonic Acid Face masks - most Korean beauty brands have this. It's very, very, hydrating. I like putting mine in the freezer or fridge for a few minutes before I put it on my face.

My favorites are:

Missha Pearl Essence Masks - I love sheet masks and the way they hydrate and infuse my face with moisture and the necessary essence treatment it needs.

Tony Moly Steam Blackhead Remover - Absolutely perfection, thats all.

Skinfood egg pore cream cleanser - I love how it makes my face feel nice and clean. Plus the food product benefits are always fun to use.

The Face Shop Chia Seed Toner & Watery Lotion - Great smell and makes my face feel good and get the proper nutrition it needs.

Others brands i love are: O Hui (even though they are expensive, I wanna try their pearls), Nature Republic, Cosrx, CNP, mediheal and Etude House.

60% of my skincare/makeup routine is Korean :))

TonyMoly Delight Lip Tint - I've tried loads of lip tints, but this one takes the cake for value, pigmentation and it doesn't have that icky cough syrup taste that some tints have

Etude House Fresh Cherry Tint - If I wanted to wear a subtler, less drying tint, this is the one I reach for

Innisfree No Sebum Mineral Powder - Best inexpensive translucent powder I've tried

Nature Republic Collagen HD Primer BB Cream - Too bad they've discontinued this, but this was an impulse buy that turned out to be the best BB cream I've tried, it's a perfect warm match to my skin and not gray at all (which is my problem with most bb creams)

Innisfree Super Volcanic Pore Clay Mask - This is a pleasure to use, it's smooth, clarifying and exfoliating

Innisfree Green Tea Seed Serum & Cream - My daytime skincare, gentle and adequate mositure for my oily skin and manages my skin well in 39 degree centigrade weather

Hi everyone I would like to know your suggestions for acne treatment and removing acne scars, so far I have tried the etude house ac clinic daily gel lotion, I had 5 bottles of these but my acne scars are still visible. Can anyone recommend better. Thanks.

I would like to use or try them, but I can't find them sold in normal places I shop. Except for Amore sold at high end department stores, I have never come across another brand at the mall or drugstore.
