Our Pick
Mediheal
Higher editor rating (9 vs 8.7)
Mediheal
Mediheal is the top-selling skincare brand at Olive Young for two years running โ 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.
Pros
- โ #1 selling brand at Olive Young
- โ Clinical-grade sheet mask formulations
- โ The Madecassoside line is category-defining
- โ Affordable daily-use pricing
Cons
- โ Sheet masks are single-use and generate waste
- โ Some older lines contain fragrance
- โ Huge catalog can be overwhelming
Krave Beauty
Liah Yoo built Krave Beauty the way you wish more brands would โ with a skincare-fatigued YouTube audience in mind, a commitment to stripping back rather than piling on, and one genuine cult hit in Great Barrier Relief. Small catalog, specific mission, loyal fans. Not for people who want a 10-step system. Very much for people whose skin has been yelled at for too long.
Pros
- โ barrier-first philosophy
- โ cult hero in Great Barrier Relief
- โ transparent founder storytelling
- โ no fragrance / no essential oils
Cons
- โ very small catalog
- โ ships mostly US/intl, harder to find in Asia
