TRENDS by GLOWPICK

It features the top 10 trends of the year, which are selected by the site based on the best rated Korean beauty products. These trends included plump, glossy lips, glittery makeup, in Korea, as well as all over the world. Products containing some traditional Korean herbs such as mugwort, Centella, etc. were also quite popular amongst masses. Concentrated products such as ampoules were well received, especially those containing hyaluronic acid.

Many lip products in the market claim to have a plumping effect on lips. Volufiline is one such popular ingredient that is used for instant lip-plumping effect.
