I take my eye cream game as seriously as sunscreen. Since my mid-teens, my Korean mum has drilled one piece of beauty advice into me: "Don't neglect your eyes and neck!" She always said her biggest skincare regret was not starting eye cream sooner — so naturally, I took that to heart. And now, I've been applying eye cream religiously for over 15 years. But while sunscreen is universally accepted as a skincare non-negotiable, eye cream? Not so much.

What is K-Secret Seoul 1988? You've probably noticed that Korean skincare is all about hydration, healing and being oh-so-gentle with your skin barrier. It's less about hardcore actives and more about soothing ingredients, which is probably why you don't see retinol all over K-beauty shelves. But as a Chinese-Korean Australian beauty writer, I live for a "best of both worlds" moment — and that's exactly what K-Secret Seoul 1988 is doing.

A 150ml tube (that's A LOT of product, TBH) normally retails for $20, but Lila Beauty stocks it for $15.95 (and they regularly have promotions on top of this discounted price). Anua Heartleaf Quercetinol Pore Deep Cleansing Foam review. I've been using this cleanser religiously for the last nine months, and I don't think I can live without it. I have super reactive combo skinn — a dry T-zone and oily everywhere else — and this is one of the few products that doesn't trigger breakouts or flare-ups.

There's nothing quite as satisfying as realising that something buried in your wardrobe for years is suddenly back in style. Case in point: suede. Sure, suede has always been around — but right now, it's everywhere. From buttery-soft bags to relaxed clogs and structured jackets, suede is having a serious fashion moment. It's all over the runways, dominating influencer feeds, and somehow makes any outfit look instantly more elevated.

Foundation is one of the trickiest beauty products to get right. It's super personal. Your skin type, undertone, preferred finish, application method and even the weather all play a part in finding the right one. What works like a dream in summer might cling to dry patches in winter. And just because a foundation is going viral on TikTok doesn't mean it's going to work for you. That's why we often turn to our team members here at Mamamia for reliable beauty recommendations.
