Our Pick
Mediheal
Higher editor rating (9 vs 7.9)
Dewytree
Dewytree is one of the quieter K-beauty brands that's been doing solid work for years — the line is anchored by two heroes (Ultra Vitalizing Snail Cream and Cica 100 Essence) and a strong sheet mask programme (the Pick & Quick 30-day mask pack). The birch-sap base across the line gives it a mild, almost-neutral scent profile and a pH-balanced formula that plays well with sensitive skin. Not a hype brand, not an editorial brand — a competent, fairly-priced K-beauty mid-tier that rewards people who buy it more than once. The Deep Detox Black Mask is an under-appreciated one-off weekly treatment.
Pros
- ✓ birch-sap-based formulations across the line are distinctive and well-tolerated
- ✓ slightly acidic pH balancing is good for barrier support
- ✓ Pick & Quick sheet mask programme is a genuine value play
- ✓ fragrance-free or very lightly scented across most products
Cons
- ✗ limited English-language press coverage — hard to research outside K-beauty forums
- ✗ packaging is forgettable — the brand doesn't photograph well for social
- ✗ no standout hero SKU to anchor the brand in global awareness
- ✗ distribution outside Korea is patchy
Mediheal
Mediheal is the top-selling skincare brand at Olive Young for two years running — beating more than 3,000 brands. Their sheet masks created the modern sheet mask category, and their Madecassoside Blemish Pad saw 820% year-over-year growth. If you only add one new sheet mask brand to your routine, make it this one.
