I feel that ingredients on both sides are great and beneficial but it's just a matter of who the key customers are and what's on trend. Many products contain glycerin but neither Western nor Eastern skincare companies put it on the labels as a star ingredient because it's not on trend. Companies just feed the demand.
But this is where apps like Picky are so handy - we can actually educate ourselves, read the ingredients list rather than the marketing labels and choose the best of the both worlds 💫💯

I agree with you that the target customer group and trends definitely play a big role in marketing strategies 😊

I’m in the UK and have always used Western but my skin has never been good, until I tried out some Korean products after looking on here and elsewhere and have never looked back 🧡 omg the difference in my skin is incredible. but I do still use western brands for certain products I love! just depends what your looking for and to help what concerns

When I was much younger, Japanese or Korean brands were not easily available so I used Western brands. However, they never really worked as well for me and it took me over 20years before I got my hands on Kbeauty skincare and it changed my life.

like the others here started using western skincare but was allergic to a lot of products. I discovered J and K beauty a few years back and started trying out products. Now I use a mix of both. I think you should be able to get the best of both worlds, right?

I am a Korean Skincare fiend! However there definitely is a place for more westernized skincare/formulations, retinol possibly being the bigger one.
I think there is definitely room for both in each person's routine depending on their skin needs. ♡
