K-beauty hydration heroes.

South Korea·Founded 1994·by AMOREPACIFIC (Suh Kyung-bae)

Laneige launched in 1994 as the K-beauty pillar of South Korean conglomerate AMOREPACIFIC, taking its name from the French word for snow. The brand is built around water-based hydration science — its proprietary Mineral Water Therapy is the through-line across every product — and grew into one of the most globally recognized K-beauty names through the Lip Sleeping Mask and Water Sleeping Mask, both of which crossed over from K-beauty insider product to Sephora best-seller territory.

The makeup side leans hydration-forward: the Lip Glowy Balm, Lip Sleeping Mask, and Glowy Makeup Serum sit at the intersection of skincare and color, while the Neo Cushion line covers the cushion foundation category. Laneige became the No. 1 K-beauty brand at US Sephora and has expanded to Ulta and Amazon, with strong dupe demand around the Lip Glowy Balm in particular against more expensive lip oils.
