There's no greater pain than having to abandon a cart full of your favorite skincare products just because the price gets way too intimidating... That's when you know you need to switch lanes to Korean skincare because you know there are equally skin-loving products at a way-nicer price that will deliver big results on a budget. Here are 10 best K-Beauty dupes for your favorite high-end brands so you don't have to wreck your wallet every time you shop!

Peeling Pad Swap

If you like: First Aid Beauty - Facial Radiance Pads

Try: Isntree - Clear Skin AB Peeling Pads

Glowing skin comes to those who exfoliate — with peel pads, specifically. If the price tag on First Aid Beauty's Facial Radiance Pads is making you think twice, consider Isntree's Clear Skin AB Peeling Pads as your perfect wallet-saving dupe. Combining physical exfoliation and chemical exfolication, both peel pads feature not one but TWO chemical exfoliants (AHAs in the form of Glycolic Acid and Lactic Acid) and glycerin to turn your dull, lacklustre complexion into radiant-looking skin.

WHY IT'S DUPE-WORTHY: Isntree's Clear Skin AB Peeling Pads is also enriched with white willow bark extract to effectively remove dead cells and excessive sebum, helping to reveal a smoother skin texture with allantoin in the mix to strengthen your skin's moisture barrier. Equally effective, and at a way-nicer price.

Rose Mist Swap

If you like: FARSÁLI - Rose Gold 24K Skin Mist

Try: heimish - Bulgarian Rose Water Mist Serum

We know a rose-mantic when we see one (yes, we're looking at you, sweetie). FARSÁLI's Rose Gold 24K Skin Mist formula is every bit of luxurious and dreamy as you could imagine for a face mist, but the price is equally hefty. Swap in heimish's Bulgarian Rose Water Mist Serum for more than half the price *jaw drops* of FARSÁLI to get equally refreshing results.

WHY IT'S DUPE-WORTHY: Featuring glycerin, propanediol, and orange peel oil, heimish's Bulgarian Rose Water Mist Serum is also packed with 88% Bulgarian Rose Water to hydrate, plump, and soothe skin. It's a toner, mist, and serum hybrid to refresh and also deeply hydrate your skin to keep the mid-day dryness at bay.

Scrub Facial Mask Swap

If you like: Fresh - Sugar Face Polish Exfoliator

Try: SKINFOOD - Black Sugar Mask Wash Off

Courtesy of Korean Brand – SKINFOOD

Another great topical skincare product for exfoliation apart from peel pads is a scrub facial mask. And if you happen to be a fan of Fresh's Sugar Face Polish Exfoliator (but not a fan of the price), we think SKINFOOD's Black Sugar Mask Wash Off could be your perfect dupe at just one-fifth of the price! Both sugar-scrub facial exfoliators feature Candelilla Wax and Meadowfoam seed oil which bring exceptional moisturizing and and smoothing qualities to keep your skin soft and supple.

WHY IT'S DUPE-WORTHY: The SKINFOOD best seller is an exfoliating and hydrating wash-off face mask with black sugar granules to help you get rid of dead skin cells on a regular basis. Fancy a fresh fruity twist? You might like to try the Black Sugar Strawberry Mask Wash Off with strawberry seeds and sugar granules to refine your skin surface with a lovely strawberry scent!

The Water Cream Oil-Free Pore Minimizing Moisturizer from high-end brand Tatcha is a top-shelf favorite for all the right reasons: oil-free, skin-improving, and ultra-hydrating.

Here is 5-star Cica care for your budget - just swap in Etude House's Soon Jung 5-Panthensoside Cica Balm for half the price of La Roche-Posay's Cicaplast Baume B5. Packed with Panthenol + Madecassoside, both Cica balms are great for soothing skin and irritation, espeically during the winter season when the weather is extra harsh on dry skin.

Try: MISSHA - Time Revolution Night Repair Probio Ampoule

Courtesy of Korean Brand – MISSHA

While ESTÉE LAUDER's Advanced Night Repair Synchronized Recovery Complex reigns high above others when it comes to night-time skincare products, spending three-digits on a single skincare product can be a lot for some people's budget. Try MISSHA's Time Revolution Night Repair Probio Ampoule which will make a great dupe (at almost 1/5 of the price!) with equally high-performance formula, thanks to hyaluronic acid, squalane + propanediol.
