Briefing on Product and Brand
There are many Korean cosmetics brands, but you must know a few.
Laneige – Moisture & Water
Laneige is the most well-known Korean skincare product. It’s also known as the King Product.
Laneige is well-known for its moisturizers and sleeping masks. Water Bank and Water Sleeping Product lines are the most popular products.
Laneige Water Sleeping Mask is one of the most highly recommended K-Beauty products!
Laneige’s price range is mid-range at USD$30-50 per item.
Because they sell basic skincare products, such as creams, lotions, and masks that perform well, the target audience is broad and general. The target audience for selling your product would be extremely wide. It is possible to narrow it down by geography (your targeg) and your interests (Korean Culture, Kpop, Beauty …)).
They also offer an anti-aging line – Time Freeze for women aged 30+ and a Homme line – Active Water for men.
Innisfree – Natural ingredients & affordable
Innisfree is the second brand we will be introducing.

They offer a wide range of products for all ages, including those aged 18+ and up to 50+.
Aritaum – The potential K-beauty Brand
Aritaum falls under Amore Pacific. This means that it is the same company as Laneige, Innisfree and Etude House. It was a similar retail branch that resold Amore Pacific’s products. They then created their own product line.
We can confirm that Aritaum’s product quality is the same as other brands like Laneige and Innisfree. Aritaum isn’t very well-known in western countries due to its lack of exposure on the international market.
They are now entering the Western market, and they already have retail shops in Canada and the U.S.
Their most loved product line is their Makeup line: Full Cover BB Cream, Color Live Tint… They offer a wide range of colors in their lipsticks and eye shadows.
These potential brands are well-known in Korea, but not in Western markets. There have been few product reviews.
Dropshippers can use this information to help them sell their product in their home country. You will be able to offer product reviews and viedos to help you stand out in your market.
