Our Pick
Beauty of Joseon
Higher editor rating (9 vs 8.4)
JM Solution
JM Solution is the brand that turned Korean sheet masks into a sales phenomenon, with the Honey Luminous Royal Propolis and Marine Luminous Pearl masks alone responsible for tens of millions of units. Mid-tier pricing, great cotton-fit, and reliable hero-ingredient delivery (propolis, pearl, snail). Not the most innovative line on the planet, but the go-to when you need 30 sheet masks for a hen weekend or a long-haul flight skincare ritual.
Pros
- ✓ Best-in-class sheet mask fit
- ✓ Hero ingredients you can actually feel
- ✓ Affordable bulk pricing
- ✓ Endless variety in formats
Cons
- ✗ Range outside masks is less inspired
- ✗ Some scent profiles are heavy
- ✗ Packaging waste from individual sachets
Beauty of Joseon
Beauty of Joseon has quietly become one of the most impressive value propositions in K-beauty. Their Relief Sun is arguably the best budget sunscreen globally, and the Glow Serum delivers genuine results at a price that undercuts competitors by half. The hanbang angle could be gimmicky, but they back it with solid formulation science.
Pros
- ✓ Exceptional price-to-performance ratio
- ✓ Relief Sun SPF 50+ is a standout product
- ✓ Hanbang ingredients backed by real formulation
- ✓ Elegant textures despite budget pricing
Cons
