5 Trending K-Beauty Ingredients You Need to Try in 2022

You guys really love my trend and ingredient-focused podcast episodes, and given that I haven’t done either of those in a while I thought it was time to do a new one! And, in all truth, I also love those the most, predicting trends and learning about skincare ingredients is so intriguing, I always learn new things when I research for the episodes (and now also YouTube videos!).

Korean Beauty Podcast: Trending K-Beauty Ingredients

In general, Korean skincare definitely is all about “natural” and “clean” ingredients these days, as is most of the global trending skincare. The pandemic gave many of us ample time to research what’s best for our skin, and – somewhat unfortunately – most people still seem to think that “natural” is better than “artificial.” This can sometimes turn into absurd phobias against anything “chemical”, which is of course nonsensical because everything in nature is also “chemical.” And, “natural” doesn’t always mean better or safer! Just think of all the poisonous mushrooms out there – not very safe, but definitely very natural. Nature is full of poisons and unhealthy substances.

Add to that the problem with “natural” preservatives usually being less reliable than good old parabens, and you have a bit of a messy trend at hand. There are, however, a number of Korean “clean beauty” brands that I cannot help but like, with really great products, so I’m not the kind of influencer to just blanket dismiss all brands with a clean beauty marketing strategy. I feel this type of extreme black and white thinking is not always helpful, personally. To me, a brand can still be great if it doesn’t resort to intense greenwashing and misrepresentation of science to a point where it’s getting harmful, e.g. pretending to be “preservative-free” and saying that’s a good thing (seriously dear brands, please preserve your products properly, thank you).

So, the five K-beauty ingredients featured in today’s The K-Beauty Podcast episode are mostly popular in products from the clean beauty movement, really. Many of them have a long history as healing herbs and/or body tonics too, though, so to me they are really fascinating. There is one currently trending K-beauty ingredient that I am not overly fond of, and you’ll probably notice which one if you’ve already seen my trend forecast video on YouTube… But, listen to the episode to find out if you’re right!

    Any chance you could tell the brand of the earrings on the first picture? Those are truly gorgeous.

      Thank you so much! The thing is, hardly anyone listened to the newer episodes I did, and given that the podcast takes up the most time recording, writing the script and editing, it currently just isn’t worth it to make more episodes. It’s sad, but it was really taking a toll on me working so many days and then having so little downloads. Thank you for being one of the few loyal listeners, maybe one day I can bring it back if the audience is there and I can find ways to make the podcast more engaging for people!
