Why: Their website has some of our fave K-beauty products, and their own-brand formulas are to die for.

What they do: With years of experience in the Industry, Christine Chang and Sarah Lee decided to set up a shopping platform with a carefully curated selection of the best K-Beauty products, and GlowRecipe.com was born. Stocking leading cult brands like Leegeehaam, Blossom Jeju, and Blithe, each product goes through rigorous testing before it’s accepted on site! They also created their own collection of products that we literally die for – if you haven’t seen their Watermelon collection, where have you been?! Their latest addition, an Avocado Melt Sleeping Mask, $45, sold out in 24 hours.

Why: They slay our hair every day

What they do: Created by our fave celeb hairstylist, Jen Atkin (she’s not only incredibly talented, she’s hilarious too), OUAI is the haircare brand that creates innovative formulas that love your hair and make styling a breeze. As well as their cult Dry Shampoo in a unique mousse formula, and the most divine smelling rose-scented hair oils, mists and sprays, their Anti-Frizz Hair Sheets are like a gift from the gods when full frizzy-hair season is full swing… Check it out:

We also love their ahhmazing hair supplements that specifically target different hair problems. There’s a scalp balancing supplement for oily hair, one to boost thin hair and make hair grow longer and thicker, and another to target dry hair and make it softer and stronger.

Black Friday offer: Buy two products and get 50% off the third with code HALFOUAI.

Why: Every product smells divine, looks gorgeous, and works like a dream.

What they do: You probably know all about one of the cutest beauty brands out there, but if you don’t, where have you been. From their deliciously scented peach palettes – the buttery texture of the mattes in the White Peach Palette is the stuff dreams are made of – to their chocolate scented Chocolate Soleil Bronzer, and iconic Better Than Sex Mascara, they have it all. We’re also in love with their Born This Way Foundation and Concealer, which both offer great coverage and beautiful texture for blending.
