Sephora is offering the Best of K-Beauty Set, which contains eight Korean skincare products valued at £92, for just £45. This represents a saving of £47 for shoppers looking to explore K-beauty trends.
The set brings together products from popular Korean brands, including Beauty of Joseon, Dr. Jart+, Medicube and Skin1004. With a mix of cleansers, serums, toners, moisturisers and sun protection, it offers a chance to explore different steps in a Korean-inspired skincare routine for as little as £5.63 per product.
What's Inside the Set
Among the highlights is Beauty of Joseon's Relief Sun Rice Probiotics SPF50+, a daily sunscreen designed to help protect skin from the sun's rays. There's also Aestura's ATOBARRIER365 Cream Mist, which offers a convenient way to refresh and hydrate skin throughout the day.
For those looking to give their skincare routine a boost, the box includes Medicube's PDRN Pink Peptide Serum, alongside Dr. Althea's 345 Relief Cream in a 15ml size. Dr. Jart+'s Ceramidin Skin Barrier Moisturizing Mask also features in the collection, offering an additional pampering step for a self-care evening.
The remaining products include Glow Recipe's Toner Pad Collection Trial Set, Skin1004's Madagascar Centella Cleansing Oil and TirTir's Milk Skin Toner in a 50ml size, adding even more variety to the line-up.
Shopper Reviews and Praise
Back at Sephora, the Best of K-Beauty Set has just a handful of five-star reviews. One buyer said: "I bought this to travel with as I already used most of the items in this, but full sized. It's an incredible deal, the very best K Beauty items out there."
Another added: "It is definitely worth it. There are products that I have never heard of or never would've bought, but now I will definitely will be repurchasing some of these products."
A third said: "I love these Korean products. The beauty of Joseon products especially the sunscreen is my favourite. It's got a good selection of products for an amazing price point."
Standout Products and Alternatives
Shoppers who have purchased the products separately were particularly impressed with the Medicube PDRN Pink Peptide Serum (£19.99 for 30ml). With a 4.74 out of five-star rating, customers praise its "lightweight, fast-absorbing formula," saying it delivers intense hydration and a radiant glow while leaving skin looking "smoother and firmer."
Another best seller is the Beauty of Joseon Relief Sun Rice Probiotics SPF50+. This creamy sunscreen contains 30% rice extract and grain fermented extracts to nourish and hydrate skin, leaving a moisturised, non-sticky finish. One Sephora shopper called the SPF50+ cream the 'holy grail' adding: "Does not crease under makeup or make my skin look greasy and perfect because it's not tinted or doesn't leave a white case." Another added: "This has to be the most light weight, subtle, quick absorbing sunblock ever!" One buyer did however note that the cream "clogged pores and caused me breakouts with how thick it is," but with a 4.9 out of five-star rating across 218 reviews, it remains one of the standout products in the Best of K-Beauty Set.
Elsewhere at LookFantastic, the 12 Days Of K-Beauty Advent is a festive treat that contains £140 worth of products.
