I’ve stumbled upon numerous Amazon secret storefronts over the past few years, each of which has set me abuzz. After all, few shopping experiences satisfy like a curated assortment of the exact product genre you’re seeking.

Of all the secret Amazon storefronts I’ve unearthed, Amazon’s Korean Beauty collection, which I happened upon this morning, is the most thrilling. For one, I’ve discovered a few brands that, until earlier, had been totally unbeknownst to me, despite my years of experience in the beauty industry. Better yet, much of the skincare is gleefully affordable, with many highly rated products costing less than $25.

One 43-year-old shopper says their skin looks “so much better” after a mere month of use, while another reviewer says their skin “has never looked so bright and smooth” as it does after using the product.

If you’ve yet to try snail mucin in your skincare routine (à la Emily Ratajkowski), you’re missing out on its collagen-promoting power and serious skin-softening effects. Adenosine and peptides are also present in this moisturizer, where they support firmer, more youthful-looking skin over time. Shoppers with oily and combination skin are particularly fond of the lightweight moisturizer, which works its magic without clogging pores.
