These Products Won Awards for Being the Top Beauty Items in a Blind Test

TV shows in Korea are one of the many sources you can find the latest trends and must-buy items from. One of the more popular TV shows that’s running right now is Get it Beauty. Every week, a panel of hosts will blind test a particular product (e.g. moisturisers from 4-5 different brands that are both local and international), and they will pick their favourite and the #1 that is chosen by viewers as well.

What’s really interesting about this show is that you will find that cheaper products (more often than not) fare better than high-end ones. With the multitude of brand options available in the market, this blind test sure comes in handy to shortlist brands in case you need to get a certain product. So here below are a compilation of local top beauty items throughout the seasons.
