Make P:rem

Make P:rem is the dermatologist-developed K-beauty brand for people whose skin reacts to everything. Their Safe Me Relief Moisture Cream is a barrier-focused cream that rivals La Roche-Posay Cicaplast at a fraction of the price. An underrated gem.

✓ Excellent barrier support

Cons

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.
