I've recently noticed a few Korean makeup brands/shops popping up in my city and I was curious to know what, if anything, anyone has tried and liked from different Korean brands.
The only one I've tried so far is The Face Shop. I really like their liquid liner pen. I tried a CC cream that unfortunately broke me out, but I really liked the way it looked. I also have a primer from them that I've yet to try (because I'm nervous I will break out)!

I haved used a random assortment of Korean beauty. I bought twopetite bb creams from holila holika (the clearing one and I think it is called the watery one). I liked them and they are tiny and cute. They would be perfect for travel or lazy makeup days.
I also use Mizon's king to the Kong gel moisturizer and toner (it has a goofy king Kong on it and is GIANT). like the biggest tub of toner and moisturizer I have ever seen. I like it and they use a lot of natural ingredients.
I also bought a primer from tony moly to correct redness and a petite Bunny gloss. The gloss is cute and whimsical. The primer/base is just OK (but so cheap so I can't really complain).
That's about all I have tried off the top of my head. I had some samples of etude house previous mineral bb cream. It highlighted my pores. Also I have (I think it is etude house) missing u hand cream in the harp seal container. So cute and has a light fresh green tea scent!
I bought from beautynetkorea and I know of places on eBay but you have to be careful for fakes.

Ohh! Thanks joannimation! I will check that out! I was just curious since they seem to be popping up around here and the products are always so adorable (and I love adorable!), I wondered if any were actually functional! I will have to check some things out! Thanks for the links

I agree with you on their packaging though. All these fruit & animal shaped products makes me want to buy them all!
