If you're looking to achieve that glass skin glow at a fraction of the price, these are the deals worth stocking up on this Prime Day. Take a look at some of our favourite tried and tested K-beauty products, below.
Medicube PDRN Pink Peptide Serum, WAS £16.90, NOW £11.31 on Amazon
The Salmon DNA PDRN Serum is one of the brand's most talked about products. Derived from fish sperm, it's designed to strengthen the skin's barrier and boost resistance against pollutants.
It's a firm favourite in the office among Tyla beauty writers, as well as with celebrities (Kylie Jenner) and TikTok beauty reviewers.
Whenever I use this product, I notice it gives my skin a firmer feel with a lot more bounce. My skin feels plump with a healthy glow, and I'd recommend trying it if you haven't already. Especially since it's on sale.
Beauty of Joseon Relief Sun Rice + Probiotics SPF 50+, WAS £12.35, NOW £9.99 on Amazon
SPF might not be at the top of your mind as autumn sets in, but skincare experts repeatedly rave about the importance of using it all year round.
The ingredient is one of the most effective when it comes to anti-ageing, and I've been using this moisturiser every day. It contains probiotics and rice for soothing skin protection. It's ideal for my sensitive skin and I love the consistency of the formula which makes it a dream to apply.
I'll definitely be stocking up while it's on sale. There's a deal running where you can get a two-pack at 15% off.
Medicube Kojic Acid Turmeric Gel Mask, WAS £16.90, NOW £8.88 on Amazon
Medicube's PDRN Gel Masks have been spotted on the likes of Hailey Bieber, Selena Gomez and Dua Lipa. After dealing with dull skin, I put the Kojic Acid and Turmeric Gel Masks from the brand to the test as I'd heard all about them, too. I can confidently say my complexion felt brightened, hydrated and with a healthier glow.
It was such a nice treat to apply when I felt like I was in need of a pamper one evening. I've gone through half the pack already! Why not put them to the test yourself?
BIODANCE Collagen Peptide Hydrogel Under Eye Patches, WAS £21, NOW £14.70 on Amazon
As I approach my thirties, I've been noticing undereye bags more than anything. I've heard all about Biodance, so I'd love to give these eye patches a try.
There's a whopping 30 percent off for Amazon Big Deal Days, and thousands of reviewers are currently raving about them. For me, eye patches are especially great to pop on after a late night or before I'm going out for an event to achieve a refreshed look.
Biodance's Hydrogel Under Eye Patches contain collagen and peptides to target dark circles, fine lines and puffy eyes.
LANEIGE Lip Glowy Balm, WAS £17.50, NOW £13.09 on Amazon
A favourite with Tyla writers, the Laneige Lip Glowy Balm is a highly nourishing lip balm that has the high-impact shine of a gloss. Natalie Corner, Commercial Editor, said: "It's genuinely the best lip balm gloss hybrid I've ever used and I squeezed every bit out of it before I had to part with the tube."
As someone who's tried the product myself, I couldn't agree more. We'll both be stocking up on our favourite shades and flavours in the Laneige Lip Balm for Prime Day.
Medicube Toner Pads Zero Pore Pad Mild, WAS £16.90, NOW £11.50 on Amazon
Hands down one of the most popular products, Medicube's Zero Pore Pads are designed to exfoliate the skin and reduce the appearance of pores. Chloe Jackson, Production Lead reveals: "How clean they make my skin feel is unmatched! My skin overall feels a bit brighter too."
They've also been used by celebs such as Molly-Mae Hague, making them sound like an essential within your skincare routine. The brand's PHA-infused formula provides a gentle, exfoliating experience.
Medicube Collagen Wrapping Mask, WAS £16.90, NOW £11.20 on Amazon
After using the Medicube Collagen Wrapping Mask overnight, I've never noticed glass skin like it. When I feel like my skin needs a boost, I apply a thick layer of this gel before bed, leave it to dry and wash it off in the morning.
The first time I used it, I've never seen my skin look so glowy and hydrated. I'm already half way through the tube and I'll definitely be repurchasing this when I run out.
This overnight mask would be one of the main products that I'd suggest trying for Amazon Big Deal Days.
COSRX Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence, WAS £12.90, NOW £11.01 on Amazon
Finally, a product used by Emily Ratajkowski (and by myself) is the CORSX Snail Mucin Essence. This product was massive when it first went viral, and thousands of reviews later prove that it's here to stay as part of people's daily skincare routines.
This lightweight serum has a refreshing feel and a slightly tacky consistency when first applied, but it dries down quickly. The effects? Hydrated skin with a glass-like glow that'll leave you the envy of everyone around you.
