31 of the Most Popular, Satisfying, and Downright Weird Asian Beauty Products on Amazon
30 October 2018
When it comes to beauty products, you've got plenty of options. You could literally spend days of your life scrolling through all of the beauty products that Amazon has to offer (not to mention all the time you could spend in your local makeup boutique!). But rather than just picking up the same old BB cream, face mask, or acne treatment, I recommend trying something totally new every once in a while. Not only might you discover a brand new product that becomes your "holy grail;" it's also just fun to try new things every now and again.
That's where Asian beauty products come in. Over the past couple of years, there's been a huge increase in the popularity of beauty items from Asian countries — and for good reason! People totally swear by them, and many of them are super fun to use and adorably packaged as well. From an exercise tool you can use to slim your face to a moisturizer made from snail slime (yes, really), you're sure to find something that you like!

We all love a good face mask, right? Well, this is one of ’em. Spread it on your face and it just looks like gray mud. But after a few minutes, the mask will have transformed into thousands of teeny tiny bubbles all over your face! The bubbles give your face a gentle massage while the clay mud and charcoal powder remove makeup, dirt, and oils while also tightening your pores. You can also take some pretty amazing bubble selfies while you’re wearing it.via: Amazon/ Mayra10031
All you have to do is apply this mask to your skin and let it dry (it takes between 15 and 25 minutes). Once it's dry, carefully peel it off your face...along with any gross gunk that's been hanging out in your pores. It kind of hurts...and it's kind of disgusting, but it's totally addicting all the same. People seriously swear by this stuff; it has nearly 3,000 Amazon reviews!via: Amazon/LW
Chances are you’ve either used one of these full-face masks yourself or seen people use them on YouTube or Instagram.

Wouldn’t you agree? Use it to keep your hair out of your way while washing your face or putting on makeup. You could also put it on straight out of the shower to keep your hair from getting unruly as it air dries. You could also put it on whenever you feel like having adorable kitty ears. That’s what I would do.via: Amazon
Remember back when you were a kid and you used to cover your hand with Elmer’s glue just so you could peel it off. First of all, have you ever thought about how that’s kind of weird? Kids are so strange. Secondly, did you know you can do pretty much the same thing as an adult? After this hand mask dries, you gently peel it off to reveal ultra-smooth and hydrated skin!via: Amazon

And it's totally gorgeous. And this is a three pack. Seriously, why haven't you ordered it yet?via: Amazon

This foamy face wash regulates excess sebum, eliminates impurities that clog your pores, tightens pores (while minimizing their appearance), and eradicates skin bacteria.

Honestly, I would probably rub it on my face even without all of the cleansing benefits.via: Amazon/Aneta
Each packet looks a lot like one of those coffee creamers you get at diners, but it's really nothing of the sort.

This special foot exfoliating mask is designed to get rid of coarse, dull, and dead skin and leave you with smooth, baby-soft feet... but it's gonna be a bit of a journey to get there.

After a few days, your dead skin will start peeling off your foot — and it will be a lot of dead skin (seriously, look at the photos on the Amazon page. If you dare.).
