The K-Beauty secret Gen Z can't get enough of
Stray Kids' Hyunjin and IVEJang won young, as well as famous K-pop singers, are also diligent about skin care Try scrolling without seeing a glowy face or " glass skin " tag-it's nearly impossible. But this isn't just marketing sparkle; studies show it's about global pop icons blending lifestyle with skincare. According to Statista, 58% of global shoppers say K-pop and K-drama shape what they choose from Korea. For young adults, the craze feels personal, and that's no accident. Take Jang Wonyoung, the much-admired idol from IVE. She's famous not just for her stage talent, but for her signature hydration routine -multiple thin layers of essence and cream that build up a fresh, plumped look, all sealed with gentle patting. "Hydration is the core of my routine. I never skip sheet masks-sometimes even twice a day before shoots!" she revealed in an interview collected by Korea Cosmetic Newspaper. This "layering" approach is getting rave reviews from young fans for delivering real, lasting results. But she's not alone: Stray Kids' Hyunjin, another K-pop favorite, openly discusses how he manages sensitivity and breakouts. His go-to: calming, nature-based products like cica toner and green tea cleansers, always sealed by sunscreen. In a recent YouGov survey, 62% of Indian Gen Z say they pick routines that "look authentic and gentle," a trend Hyunjin helped fuel by posting his nighttime routine-proving that even without a glam squad, a K-pop-inspired ritual can be part self-care, part self-expression. It's no wonder Korean skincare is flying off shelves in India, with reports by KOTRA and Social Beat India confirming a sharp jump in K-Beauty's popularity, driven by idol-fueled trends-not just ads. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like No annual fees for life UnionBank Credit Card Apply Now Undo What Makes K-Beauty So Addictive? Aloe, Tech, and the Idol Factor Ask anyone in their twenties: why all the K-Beauty hype? It comes down to real benefits, affordable prices, and-according to K-Beauty expert consultant Ms. Cho Hyee Jung-super gentle but innovative formulas. "K-Beauty products are winning over young Indians because their natural ingredients and advanced blends give that moisturized, healthy 'glass skin' look with zero irritation," she explains. Ms. Cho adds that the ritual itself feels like "a healing session," blending wellness with daily style. Numbers back this up. Cosrx India's survey finds 62% of Gen Z (18-26) are chasing "youthful confidence," with 96% buying skincare in the last 6 months. Key sellers stay below ₹1,200-about ₹1,200 for a full set, with deep sale prices even hitting ₹400. Compare that to global brands at ₹2,500 and up, and you see why so many K-beauty products sell out online. And while K-Beauty is famous for natural boosts-think aloe, green tea, hyaluronic acid-what really stands out is personalization. Korean brands now offer AI-powered skin analysis and AR try-ons, plus halal/vegan options. Some even customize formulas for Indian skin and climate, as per Vogue Business' latest report. Social Media, Idol Routines, and the Ultimate Fandom-Beauty Link Move over, influencer plug: K-pop idol recommendations are powering a new level of skincare chatter. In just two years, Social Beat India clocked 6.2 million posts about K-beauty and K-pop, with the 19-24 crowd at the heart. Launchmetrics data shows K-pop stars now drive nearly 60% of global beauty event buzz-sometimes clicking over ₹515 crore in media value, each event. The result? YouGov India reports a 22% spike in real purchases-all from fan trust in how Jang Wonyoung or Hyunjin "really care for their skin." Brands see this, too: K-pop idols have moved up to creative directors, even shaping new product releases based on their routines and feedback. More Than a Trend-Why K-Beauty Fits Your Vibe For millions of young Indians, copying a K-pop skin routine isn't about copying a star; it's about finding personal power, relaxation, and a sense of global connection. KOTRA says over 70.7% of K-content fans (ages 17-30) "genuinely consider Korean skincare when shopping". Ms. Cho notes that K-Beauty's rise isn't a quick trend, but a shift to "wellness, individuality, and a moment of self-care that genuinely feels good. " No matter your budget or your skin challenges, there's a K-pop-inspired routine or product that fits-and a generation finding joy and confidence, one sheet mask at a time.

The Great Indian Kapil Show 3: Kapil Sharma takes a dig at Navjot Singh Sidhu's political career; says 'Biwi ka dil jeetna, party ka kya hai banda badal bhi leta hai...'
The Great Indian Kapil Show season 3 welcomed a popular couple, Parineeti Chopra and Raghav Chadha as special guests. The good-looking couple revealed many secrets about their love story and relationship. The episode was a full-on laugh riot with hilarious gags from Krushna Abhishek , Kiku Sharda and Sunil Grover. Parineeti and Raghav were seen having a gala time on the show and Raghav even disclosed many things about his political career. During a candid chat with Raghav, Kapil asked the young politician what he found more challenging—winning elections or winning his wife's heart. With a witty smile, Raghav replied, "The frequency is different. You have to win an election once every five years, but you have to win your wife's heart every hour." Hearing this, Kapil praised him and others cheered for him. Just then Kapil pulled Navjot Singh Sidhu 's leg by cracking a hilarious punch on his political career. He said, "Biwi ka dil jeetna actually, party ka kya hai, woh toh aap kabhi bhi badal sakte ho." (A person can always switch political parties. Right Paaji) and then he looked at Sidhu for validation. This left everyone in splits of laughter including Parineeti and Raghav. He then stated, "Look at the power of love and art! We have people from different political parties under the same roof. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like If you have a mouse, play this game for 1 minute Navy Quest Undo If we count your former party, we have people from three parties here." Sidhu quickly added, "India has around 30 to 40 languages, 40 different cultures and people from different castes and communities living together. Four parties surely co-exist." Raghav supports Sidhu and says that's the beauty of India. During the beginning of the episode, Raghav walked barefoot on TGIKS stage. When Kapil asked him about the reason, he informed the host that someone stole his shoes from backstage. Just then, Krushna Abhishek and Kiku Sharda make a dramatic entry dressed as female security officers, Mona and Sona, holding Raghav's shoes in their hands. They cheerfully address Raghav as their jiju and demand money in exchange for returning his shoes, claiming they are performing the traditional joota churayi ritual. Entering the stage with the chant, 'East or West, Raghav jiju is the best,' they leave everyone in splits. When Kapil tries to scold them for their antics, Krushna (as Mona) quips, 'Kapil is just jealous because Parineeti is here with her husband, and his flirting skills are currently on flight mode!' Kapil quickly covers up by playfully calling Parineeti his sister. Hilarious Archana Puran Singh memes flood Twitter after Navjot Singh Sidhu resigns as Punjab Congress chief
