Korean Skincare Dominates 2025 Skincare Landscape, But France Holds Strong
South Korean brands have undoubtedly made a significant impact on the UK skincare market this year, with many British consumers flocking to products that promise hydrated, unagitated, and glassy-looking skin. As the beauty landscape continues to evolve, it's clear that these Korean powerhouses are here to stay.
Beauty of Joseon's Relief Sun Rice + Probiotics SPF50+, for instance, is a game-changer in the world of sunscreens. This product embodies everything that excites me about skincare: elegant formulas, gentle ingredients, and unbeatable hydration levels, all at an affordable price point of £15.50.
But Korean brands aren't the only ones worth mentioning. France has a rich history of producing exceptional skincare products, and 2025 is no exception. Mimétique's Skin Cloud cleansing balm (£25) is a standout product that delivers on its promise, providing a thorough and fast cleanse without any residue or fuss.
Meanwhile, The Ordinary's £13.50 GF 15% Solution has shaken the industry with its affordable price point, rivaling high-end brands that charge upwards of £200 for similar technology. This gentle anti-ageing serum is perfect for even sensitive skin types, making it an excellent choice for those who've struggled to find products that work for them.
The Ordinary's breakthrough also paves the way for a resurgence in mineral sunscreen, which was previously confined to the lowest shelf in the skincare aisle. Sunsolve MD's new generation zinc-oxide face creams have played a significant role in this comeback, offering elegant and makeup-compatible solutions for consumers.
As I eagerly await the UK launch of Inn Beauty Project's Mineral Sun Glow, it's clear that 2025 has been an incredible year for skincare innovation. With so many amazing products to choose from, it's harder than ever to decide where to start – but one thing's for sure: this is a skincare landscape that's here to stay.
