Our Pick
Mediheal
Higher editor rating (9 vs 8)
TIRTIR
TIRTIR went from unknown to globally viral in under two years, and the hype is mostly justified. The Mask Fit Red Cushion genuinely delivers buildable, skin-like coverage with impressive longevity. Their skincare line is solid but secondary — this is a brand you buy for their base makeup.
Pros
- ✓ Mask Fit Cushion is genuinely excellent
- ✓ Industry-leading shade range for K-beauty
- ✓ Long-wearing formulas
- ✓ Clean ingredient philosophy
Cons
- ✗ Skincare line is unremarkable
- ✗ Premium pricing for K-beauty
- ✗ Limited availability outside Asia
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
