In the last five years, Korean beauty standards have reached the highest level of popularity worldwide. Double eyelids, v-shaped jaw, perfect white complexion, and thin bodies are prized in Korean beauty. In a nutshell, they project an innocent look. Soft and kind on the “outside”, Korean beauty standards are some of the strictest standards in the world, compared to the Western ones.
The demand for K-beauty goods (facial masks, cleansers, moisturizers, and makeup) is so strong that the Korean beauty sector is expected to grow to $14 billion by 2027.
The whole concept of a Korean beauty standard, and how these items can assist purchasers to achieve that look, is driving up demand for these products.
As the Korean cosmetic industry has gained a lot of popularity over the years, The cosmetics industry, like the music industry, became one of South Korea's most lucrative and powerful industries. As part of Hallyu, also known as the "Korean Wave", the cosmetic industry made its way to the Western side of the globe. The "Korean Wave" is characterized as the spread of current Korean culture into the Western world, encompassing music, fashion, films, and cosmetic trends.
But why should people be interested in the Asian beauty industry? The Western beauty ideal, which includes fair complexion and wide eyes, is thought to have influenced the Korean beauty ideal. Skincare products and cosmetic surgery are used to reach these criteria. Nonetheless, many people use those items, also had surgery, and use Korean skincare products. As a result, people consume items that appear to be based on them.
In Korea, a lot of emphases is placed on appearance, therefore many people have undergone plastic surgery and used skincare and cosmetics to match the country's standard appearance. Some people in South Korea defy traditional beauty standards, but their lives aren't as simple as they appear because this trend isn't widely recognized in the country.
