Whether it's a cutting edge K-beauty snail serum or the chicest Parisian pharmacie find, one thing is clear: When it comes to beauty products, we want our vanity to be as world-traveled as we aspire to be.

However, while you were busy obsessing over glass skin primers and luxury diaper creams (which are great, to be sure), another international destination has been quietly brewing some of the most innovative makeup, hair, and skin care: Japan. From budge-proof liquid eyeliner to an OG oil cleanser, we're giving you a crash course on all things J-beauty with these 16 products that you can readily shop online (including on Amazon Prime!).

At Refinery29, we’re here to help you navigate this overwhelming world of stuff. All of our market picks are independently selected and curated by the editorial team. If you buy something we link to on our site, Refinery29 may earn commission.
