Olive Young Skincare haul 🛍️How to shop in Korea 🇰🇷

I just came back from Korea 🇰🇷 (actually it’s been 2 weeks HAHA) & here’s the few skin care items i decided to get! #skincarereview & #WhereToShop 🛒

Some shopping tips i learnt 🤣:

💫 Curate a shopping list as you’ll DEF be overwhelmed 😵‍💫 like me! Research & read reviews 🔬& select your products before gg, it will really help!

💫 There are other (maybe even cheaper) shops than Olive Young!! I find that random beauty stores along Myeong Dong most of the time sell products CHEAPER 🤩 than Olive young (if OL has no sale), so i think you can check those stores out first before going to OL. Stores like📍Mask Story/ K-beauty Shop/ Mask for skin/ Baviphat.

💫 Compare prices in store to Shopee! I realised Shopee might be even cheaper sometimes… for ALL kinds of products, from skincare, sunscreens & makeup. It may be more worth to buy from Shopee!

Toners —

01. BRING GREEN Artemisia Calming Toner pads

Rating: 5 ⭐️

; Love how moist 💧each pad is & really makes my skin hydrated & soft. Helped to calm down 😌 & minimise the size of my blemishes! 👍🏻

📍 Each tub comes with 75 pads, sold as 1+1 bundle at Olive Young! Tbh, I really don’t rmb how much this was in korea 😭😭 but the value was super worth & in the cheaper range for toner pads in OL 🤑

02. ROUND LAB Toner

Rating: 5 ⭐️

; Very hydrating! 💧 Love that it doesn’t have a strong smell. Jumbo bottle is def worth it

📍 Olive young

Serums & Eye mask —

03. COSRX Snail Mucin Power Essence

Rating: 5⭐️

; i’m pretty sure this isn’t a new product too most of you, but ITS SO GOOD😍 helps so much with my skin texture & hydrates my skin vv well! Bought this as I ran out

📍 K-beauty Store along MD [cheaper than OL]

04. SOMEBYMI Propolis B5 Glow Barrier Calming Serum

Rating: 5⭐️

; This contains Royal gold Honey 🍯 & really gives my face that natural glow the next morning! Helps to build 💪🏻 my skin barrier as I notice that my skin looks more plump & Glowy ✨ the more i use it

📍 K-beauty Store along MD [cheaper than OL]

05. PRRETI Real Gold Hydrogel Eye Mask

; Decided to try this random brand out & it’s really good! Hydrates my under eyes & the patch doesn’t dry out easily

Rating: 5⭐️

📍 Mask Story MD

Sunscreens —

06. AHC Natural Perfection Sun Stick

Rating: 4⭐️

Decided to try out the sun stick hype, slightly waxy texture & not as matte as i would like, but overall it’s still good! I would personally reco Nature republic’s sun stick as it feels more powdery than waxy

📍 K-beauty Store along MD [cheaper than OL]

07. ROUND LAB Sunscreen spf50++

Rating: 4⭐️

; needless to say, this sunscreen is great! Doesn’t make the skin oily yet it gives a healthy glow. tbh i prefer beauty of joseon over this as RL is a little watery! Just personal preference 😊
