A head-to-head comparison of two popular K-beauty brands. Which one is right for your skin?
Our Pick
Mediheal
Higher editor rating (9 vs 8.1)
Simple Organic
Simple Organic is the Brazilian brand that feels closest to a Scandinavian or Japanese indie — restrained packaging, tight range, clean formulas built around Cerrado biome botanicals. The Protetor Solar FPS 30 is a legitimately good physical sunscreen for sensitive skin.
Pros
- ✓ Clean indie formulas
- ✓ Brazilian botanical sourcing
- ✓ Editorial minimalist identity
Cons
- ✗ Limited distribution outside Brazil
- ✗ Premium for the Brazilian market
- ✗ Small range
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.
Pros
- ✓ #1 selling brand at Olive Young
- ✓ Clinical-grade sheet mask formulations
- ✓ The Madecassoside line is category-defining
- ✓ Affordable daily-use pricing
Cons
- ✗ Sheet masks are single-use and generate waste
- ✗ Some older lines contain fragrance
- ✗ Huge catalog can be overwhelming
