It's been a while since I did a dedicated K-Beauty video. Whilst Korean Skincare is 98% of my skincare routine, I feel like I don't discuss it enough!
So today I want to share some of my favorite products, from my newest obsession, Olive Young.
If you want to know what is truly being used and what is Popular in South Korea, Olive Young is the place to shop.
I find myself endlessly scrolling through their website (the App is a little glitchy!) and around 4 months ago now, I spent a small fortune on their website.
And today I want to share some of my favorite products from my Olive Young haul.
After I paid for all these products myself, Olive Young invited me to join their affiliate program and I said yes... obviously. So whilst none of these products were gifted, using the affiliate links to shop will support me and this channel as I'll make a small amount of commission.

I really appreciate James' honesty on getting cheek filler and botox, it's so good to hear that you're so open about products and not claiming it does something that botox/filler does.
🙏🏼💜💜
for those of you who dont know, Olive Young is basically the Ulta of Korea
Olive Young customer service is horrible. I've ordered product for €80 but there was €30 extra cost, so I sent them an e-mail asking for what was the €30 for but there was no answer.
@@ithsara4684 idk what to tell you man. i mean stuff like that happenes when it comes to international orders. personally, ive never had a bad experience with olive young besides spending too much money all at once
@@ithsara4684 It might be the shipping cost. Whenever I've ordered products from Korea (shipping to Canada) it costs at least KRW 30,000 (~$30 CAD) for tracked international shipping. You can sometimes get cheaper shipping if you choose an untracked option, but the shipping speed for that is really slow so most websites don't offer it.
If the extra cost was charged on arrival in your country, it could also be taxes or duties that you have to pay for importing foreign goods.
@@Flawlesslmperfection yep especially because of covid. its better to use services that will buy the item in the native country (in this case korea) then ship it at u. there are fees for shipping, weight, etc. but its generally cheaper depending on what ur buying.
I miss going to Olive Young ugh
James saying “soothing and calming” is so soothing and calming
Unfortunately, with peace and love, it's also become redundant.
Soooving
fr, and his voice in general is so soothing!
This is my go to for all things K-beauty. Even just for “window shopping” and learning about ingredients and brands I’ve never heard of. So I appreciate you and your channel so much.
I really appreciate that you disclose that you get Botox and fillers when talking about skin care results, it helps reviewers have realistic expectations.
I very much appreciate how transparent James is with his affiliation with the K beauty brand. This is why I trust his recommendations.
🙏🏼🙏🏼💜💜
You are the person who has stoked my interest in K Beauty. I never realized how amazing their products are. They put a lot of U.S. brands to shame!
Same sis! I think everything I use is thanks to James!💜🖤
Most actually
I much agree! I used to use US brands but so many products burned my skin time and time again. Since I started using kbeauty many years ago, nothing has burned my skin ever again!
I've started using k-beauty 10 years ago and there are soooooo many more brands to choose from now! And it felt like they were always 5 - 10 years ahead regarding skincare (and makeup too tbh)
ahh finally non-k youtubers are using the brands that koreans actually use more often!! :) it was sometimes frustrating to see kbeauty brands in the non korean community that none of us rlly use
It’s so hard to navigate now there’s so many popular kbeauty brands and so many brands that claim to be kbeauty!
I'm korean and all the products you're talking about are super popular. Kahi stick says it has collagen which is super popular these days. I also use Round lab toner and products from The lab by blac doux. I love both brands cuz they are so mild and soothing.
Yessss!!! Love that your showing k-beauty that’s popular in Korea! Maybe you can do a video comparing popular k-beauty products in Korea vs the west :))
You are definitely one of the best skincare influencers! The way you present the products and your product suggestions are just amazing! Plus the love for k-beauty 😍 Love the Round Lab brand, gentle, soothing and hydrating. I suggest also the Dokdo line from the same brand *chef's kiss*
this is spot on!!! i'm back in korea right now and i was surprised to see how James got all of these popular items spot on. they're all best sellers or ranked top for popular items currently at olive young! also everyone is obsessed with that kahi (kah-hee) beauty balm right now... they have so many commercials for that here lol
This is exactly what I need rn as I'm looking for what skincare from k-beauty to try. Thank you for uploading this at the perfect time, James! 😂💖
I’ve missed your K Beauty content. So happy to see it back
I love watching your videos while I do my own skincare, I learnt a lot over the past couple months and I wanna thank you for that😭
Omg James!! Been wanting to try The Lab pads but haven’t seen anyone doing a review of this! I’m so glad you made it!! ❤️
My obsession with skincare started when my husband started regularly traveling to South Korea! K-Beauty is such a great intro into skincare!
Wow what perfect timing I've been researching K beauty brands all week!
I just realized they have cosrx at my local walmart, not a great selection but I managed to get the snail mucin power essence and moisturizer today, so excited to use them tonight
Same here!! Finally got my hands on the pimple patches a year ago, despite their lack of selection, and lord have they done me good.
@@koratora2468 I got the pimple patches today too. I don’t suffer from acne but once in a while I get a little itchy bump here and there and the patch keeps me from scratching my face off
I used James’s discount to get the snail mucin and absolutely LOVE it. I think it’s really helped to restore my skin barrier.
The snail mucin essence is quite good.
@@kevinjanghjtrue I’ve been using it since 3 days
My skin feels very hydrated
I love your K-beauty content, so I hope this video gets all the views!
my k beauty favourites is definitely all the sunscreens I’ve tried!!! I want to try the round lab birch one next, maybe I’ll purchase from olive young 👀 thanks for introducing me to so many new products in this video, I love reviews like this 🤗
The Kahi Eye Balm is great for under eye makeup prep. I found that my concealer sits super nice on top of this balm!🖤💜
James, I'd love to see a video listing your most favourite soothing products, K-beauty or otherwise. I have dry/combination skin like a lot of 30+ year olds and when you mentioned that "tight" feeling you get after using certain products, I totally related to the feeling. I want to know what refreshing/calming skincare you would recommend! ✨💕
I love K-beauty, but it has been so long since I've gone digging through sites looking for new finds. I'm definitely excited about that sleeping mask!
Thank you for your transparency with the links and the 'work' you've had on your face. I stopped watching beauty/skincare gurus cause I just felt like they were recommending every new product they were paid to "like". And saying how well a product helped them with a certain problem that they actually got professionally 'fixed'. Nothing wrong with getting procedures or getting sponsored but I just want the honesty so I appreciate your videos. I don't know if just clicking the links supports you but I clicked each and one of them just to do so.
Yeah I noticed that we get the less popular ones or not well known in Korea like purito wasn't well known but was popular in the west. I'd love to see more popular products high end and low end
I don't know if it's the clearly presented information or the positivity, but I've been binging you and your brother every time I need good vibes. Can you please do a video on how to recognize what your skin issues are? Absolutely love the content, thanks!
EXCELLENT video request!?! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
@@rosey_ie thanks! He did one a few years ago on determining your skin type, but it wasn't super comprehensive and I know James has grown a lot since then and may have more detailed advice to offer.
Love your voice.
Love your recommendations.
Appreciate your authenticity.
Love your channel! 💜
Love your videos. I'd love a K-beauty video for beginners. Like what is what and what is good for different skin types ect! How to not get tricked into buying fads ect. I love all your infp
Aestura's Repair Signature Cream has a very matte finish on application despite a buttery or thick texture. Super love it.
Thank YOU so much for sharing a reliable website that sells Korean products...Thank You James :-)
I also have hanyul bean serum, and I like it so far. I will try Mixoon’w bean serum next. I also like isoi’s rose serum. My skin brightened a lot (my dark spots faded!) after using isoi serum. I’m on my second bottle for this. Also, I like manyo galac niacin serum because it’s the only niacin serum that doesn’t make my base makeup roll and it’s somehow hydrating under make up without being greasy.
I have been wanting a video like this 🤗 So excited
James be uploading videos at 3 AM in my country hahaha i love him so much♥️♥️
yaaas I was waiting for this video for a long time! love you 🥰😘
I will be so thrilled to hear from you about new toners out there (that are actually hydrating).🐇
James I know it's like super old video now but it's so useful for me now as I am in Korea. I watched couple CZcams videos regarding this topic and I must say you do it the best. I think if some CZcamsrs are using the term "healing properties" they should describe what they mean by that or if there's any clinical testing done on the product. So thank you for not using gimmick words that mean nothing :)
I am obsessed with the Hanyul Red Rice Essential Skin Softener . The skin looks so plump & hydrated after application . Part from Hanyul I am also hooked on the Primera products . Hope you can review on these two brands .
I've been really into k beauty skincare lately. I can't wait to try some for my rosacea and dry skin
But it’s in there -James 🤣 that face you made was the best. I always appreciate your honesty hun
Yes! I always look forward to K-beauty specific videos the most! It's also how I fell in love with skincare, and it can sometimes be hard to shop for (without knowing Korean 😅).
I've been usining k-Skincare for about 2 years now after my friends recommended it to me. I made the change after my old skincare products just kept making my skin worse & worse as I got older, especially after I had my daughter. I tried so many different brands and that, expensive ones and cheap one, ones that were recommended to me but none worked. So I started trying Korean skincare products and I noticed a change almost instantly. It took a few tries to find the exact ones that worked best for my skin but I didn't have to try to many different ones and even though I only do my skincare every 2 days (I'm really bad at self care lol) my skin doesn't suffer for it and it still works amazing. I have specific ones I'll use. Every now and then I may try something new just to see but there are 3 specific ones I'll never stop using.
One being the Volcanic clay mask by Innisfree. I love it so much. I only use it once a month really. I don't need to use it anymore then that. Another one is the All Clean Balm by heimish. It's my oil cleanser and I use it twice a week or so right before I use my normal cleanser. And the other is the Bija Spot Treatment by Innisfree. I've been very lucky to not have suffered that badly from breakouts over the years but when I do get a rare breakout or a stray pimple here or there, I use this 2-3 times a day, depending on the size, a little also goes a long way, and it clears them up so fast.
This is a great video. We get to know other good brands from Korea aside from the well known brands from Korea like Cosrx, Some By Mi, Innisfree, etc. Korea is very fortunate that they have tons of good options for skincare products. I'm feeling envious.😁👍👍
I started watching your channel right at the start of the pandemic (3 years ago?10? 50? who knows anymore) and I wanted to try the products you were showing, like from Cosrx, Dr Jart, Iunik and so on... Now I have the most amazing skin I have ever had!!!
Plus some mild obsession with K-skincare, but I think of it as a good thing :D
Thank you so much James
I love you James!! Greetings from Oz! (Kansas) I always need more Kbeauty content!!!!
Round lab is my favourite brand ever. I have yet to try a product from them that my skin doesn’t love! It’s ALL so good!
Round Lab Mugwort toner is my favourite toner atm! I'm already on my 2nd bottle. I'll try the soybean bean one next
I def needed this today! Thank u :))
I love K beauty and I use K several beauty and K beauty inspired skincare on a daily basis. But(!): I’d love to hear about J beauty in general, J beauty products and J beauty trends.
Lots of love ✌️😽💗
Hello James. I always love your K Beauty reviews so this is right on time. Let me see if I find something new to try. Hope all is well.
My favorite K beauty product is the Mizon 92% snail moisture . Love that product so much!!!
Absolutely love the Hanyul Yuja oil face masks. Used that mask for my wedding day.
When I came back from Sephora today, I swear my husband had tears in his eyes when he saw the bag 😂😂😂😂😂
So I heard you talk about Glow Recipe alot and I decided to try it. I am crazy about it now!! I use the moisturizer as a serum and I love what it does for my skin!!
The Kahi eye balm is great on the winter days with the wind stinging your eyes and your breath coming from wearing a mask. I really felt my eyes weren't hurting and drying out if I put this on before going out.
Omg James! Don’t cry 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Thanks for the awesome review, I love it❤️
Your nails look so cool and love the led lights.
Your skin seems very stressed/blotchy and with a slight rash in this video especially on your nose and a little bit on your cheeks and forehead.
Only noticed because I have very sensitive skin that overreacts and my skin go's like that after I washed it with something harsh or used too much product too quickly without letting my skin rest in between applications.
Your skin looks so amazingly hydrated though! Thanks for the great content
i love korea - i went nuts for the skincare in 2019 when i was lucky enough to visit
Love your videos! Been watching a long time! I found you sort of through your brother Robert 😂 I'm a Makeup Artist and was subbed to him, and one day I watched your Photoshop video and thought it was him 😂 I've loved your videos ever since! You're so calming to watch❤️
I use the Korean face masks that i get off amazon and they are so amazing my skin is always feeling amazing afterwards. Im definitely going to look more into these products. I really need more of a routine
Oh my god oh my god, as a Korean who just moved out of the country, I had no idea Olive Young shipped overseas. Thanks James, you're a life saver!
I absolutely love Dr. Ceuracle!! The hyal reyouth cream is my favourite. I use the hyal reyouth toner as well, I really recommend them both!
It’s a Korean brand that i discovered that you might be interested in. The moisturiser is so so hydrating and almost mask like!
James CLASSIC
i've been binge watching your videos now and newly subscribed and i've just noticed and i sweaaar you use kpop instrumentals in your intro sometimes right? i love it
Currently staying in Korea and would love to recommend Avene's Trixera moisturiser for people with dry skin like me ( I use the balm version)
Thankss
I love the Avene Xeracalm ad cream! It's so wonderful for sensitive dry skin. I don't know if it's very popular but it's the best moisturizer I've ever used. Glad Avene products are popular there, they are pretty amazing
@@oceanbird. Ohh yes I was using that one before I found the trixera one. Really good as well ❤
James can you do a video of your kbeauty faves every month♥️
I want to shop Olive Young more, they seem like they have good sales I see the adds all the time on instagram but I hate their website!
Yes!!! Was in need of some inspiring products. Bored with inkey, ordinary, glow recipe…
I don’t know why James but your face is extra glowing today! 🤩🤍
Love K-Beauty 💕
I was missing your KBeauty videos ❤️
I dream of going to Korea again so I can hang out in Olive Young and all the other skincare shops aaah :)
On soy in skincare, I was browsing today after having seen an interesting Japanese toner and apparently there's a fair bit of positive studies of the effect of soy isoflavones (estrogen-like effects) as far as skin aging. Looks as though isoflavones can stimulate collagen production which makes it interesting and kinda promising in skincare!
please do more new k beauty recommendations. i was looking through yesstyle the other day realizing that i have no idea what is going on in that world!
I m jst loving ur skin James ,, hey i m ur new subscriber 😊
Olive young is having a valentines day sale until the 13th too, perfect video timing!
Omg I’m going over right now 😂
You have the best looking cheek filler I've ever seen. Extremely natural looking.
James, I love this episode! I’m addicted to OYG and ordered massive products… finally direct access to Korean skincare products and free shipping! great selections and looking forward for more of your recommendations! Please check out I’m from Honey mask. It’s just perfect to hydrate and give a glow finish.
Numbuzin #3 toner won number 1 at the Olive Young Convention. Gives you a beautiful glow.
Thanks for the recommendations James! I usually scroll through olive young and can never decide what you purchase! 💜
Aestura is my faave!! 😍
I tried the Aestura Atobarrier cream and lotion because I heard their products were popular in Korea, and I can see why. Their products are great for dry sensitive skin and apply very nicely. Will definitely try out more from this brand.
Do you love the cream or the lotion more? I would love to know your opinion on the comparison
@@lucyjames8818 Both are great in my opinion, very moisturizing. The cream can get quite heavy so I only use it at night. I like the lotion more since it's more lightweight, but I wish it came with the same packaging as the cream. The pump dispenses too much product if you're not careful and the opening sometimes gets clogged because of air exposure...
Packaging aside, I still repurchased both. My skin loves their products.
Aestura atobarrier cream and lotion fungal acne safe ?
💜🙏💪 K-beauty Champion!!
Loved the video. Watching your videos has changed my whole approach and even techniques I use. My 53 year old skin has never looked better. What do you think of facial steaming products?
Thank you for sharing your experience with us
You have the skin I’m trying to achieve 🥰
When I reached out to Peach & Lily for a personalized routine maybe 5 years back they recommended Atoclassic - they no longer carry and it reminds me of Aestura so I look forward to having something for skin barrier repair on hand. I have yet to try anything Yuja but just say James was ultra glowy in the BS Bandwagon panel the other day - maybe it was this delicious sleeping pack 🤔✨. Props to James for pronouncing all these ingredients 👏🏼
My favorite Korean brand is innisfree. I keep going back to their green tea line over more expensive skincare. I love their green serum I must have used up 6 bottles so far
Love Innisfree! I have the cherry blossom toner, it's my favorite!
I'm waiting on my first Innisfree products to arrive at the moment
You have to buy The Lab's Sunscreen~It's the only sunscreen that I always forget I wear because it never gives me any skin irritation. I'm always astonished that at the end of the day before I remove the sunscreen I feel and see my skin is at its best condition. I have ultra sensitive skin. Living in Korea,I've tried A LOT of Korean sunscreen but this is the best for me! I will literally die if this is discontinued.
PS. Noticed it's not already available in Olive Young shops and even their online shop so I have to buy it through The Lab's website.
I would love,Love,LOVE to see you review the KoKo Rose products. They’re the only Black Owned K Beauty company
I love the intro song!
The Aestura brand you showed really peaked my interest. Lately I've been getting fed up trying all these different face creams/lotions. They all have felt heavy, greasy and suffocating. As soon as I get slightly heated up from a brisk walk I feel like my face is just dripping from the lotion I've used.
I've been looking for something that is lightweight and actually absorbs into my skin, so I'm very curious to try out those first products you've shown. Thank you for this video, I've always been interested in K-beauty brands 😇💕
Piqued*
@@agentktulu thank you 💕 I've been spelling that wrong for years lol
@@Starfirahs you're welcome! I like to be corrected as well so I can learn the right way for the future! Glad you're one of those people too :)
@@agentktulu Definitely! 💕
James, check out Graymelin brand!!! I love it and I think, you will fall in love with the Oxygen Bubble Face Mask Pack. It's a bit like a cleansing gel, but much, much nicer - with bubbles 😊
💜 Olive Young!
I miss them since I don't live in Korea any more...
I just got the Peach& Lily glass skin serum, and ive only been using it for 3 days now, and my pores already look cleaner& smaller. I'm so excited to see results with this one💝💝
I also got the CosRX Snail mucin moisturizer &started using the serum again too, and my face feels nice and soft and Plump. I love it
You might know it already but Peach and Lily is American, not Korean.
@@blee8607 I didn't know that, it's in the international section in Ulta, and on the bottle it says made in Korea, distributed in NY so I figured it was a Korean brand. Thank you!
I think it is just Korean inspired. I don't think Olive Young global even has Peach&Lily products. But if the product works for you then keep using it.
The founder immigrated from Korea. It is considered Korean skincare. The site also links to other Asian brands.
@@QuinnHockey412 for Peach&Lily?
Could you do skincare challenge videos! I think it would be funny to watch lol
Like maybe do a video where u use only USA skincare for a few weeks or smth
Great videos as always 🥰😌💜✨
Hi James! I've been watching your videos for almost 2 years and now I just influenced my husband to watch your videos with me. He has been loving your videos on beard routines. Can you please do more videos catered for men with beard? It would help so much. Not just for my husband but also for a lot of men out there.
Love you James !!
Heyyyy!!! Ahhh thanks so much for sticking with me! Toners and chemical exfoliants are great for getting to the skin under the beard and keeping them flake free. Also a brush beard! Any facial moisturisers labelled ‘lotion’ tend to have a more liquidy consistency that gets to the skin under the beard better depending on how thick it is!
@@JamesWelsh OMG youu replied! Thank you so much for the advice! My husband is browsing for the products you just mentioned. He immediately bought the beard brush, Glow Recipe Watermelon juice moisturizer and facial cleansing brush (as recommended from your other videos). Will that be able to moisturize underneath the beard?
I would like this as well. I've been helping my brother (with a beard) develop a skincare routine. One of his biggest issues is ingrown hairs where he shaves. I'm not really sure what to recommend to prevent that.
I couldn’t relate more when he said that he’s always endlessly scrolling on Olive Young because THATS ME ALL THE TIME 😩
Hii! Try Klavuu White Pearlization, I absulut love it, the cleanser is wonderful, the serum has 33 actives, like probiotics, fatty acids, niacinamide, a lot of antioxidants, alge extracts etc etc and the packing is sooooo beautiful. Everything had parfum but is really gentle and the cream is ultra hidrating, really good for dry skin, winter etc. Sulwhasoo is another wonderful, very rich in ingredients.
Excited to find a reliable alternative to YesStyle
